Chapter 336: The Emperor Roles

336 The Emperor Roles

The next day, Ming Hui let Fan Lanying rest in the room because he no longer has parents. She can skip the part of greeting the groom parents and all. He could ask his brother to do it, but because of his work, he chose to just skip this part. As for Ming Hui, he went to meet with Yan because of work.

"Soujin and Jun Hua already returned to Ming City," Yan informed Ming Hui when the latter arrived.

Ming Hui raised his eyebrows and said, "That quick? Lanying would want to meet with Jun Hua for sure."

"Jun Hua had to prepare for her own marriage. That Soujin is rushing the time," Yan sighed.

"Well, he might not have any time in the future, though since we are going to reform many things in the kingdom and he would not want to separate from Jun Hua again."

"At least her family is supportive though they are protesting about the time."

"…They are not the only one."

Yan leaned back on the chair, "Well, I have to attend their wedding too. You two are really stupid in choosing the time."

Ming Hui shrugged. It was not like he wanted to make things complicated, but he didn't want to delay the time any longer. After thinking for a few moments, he smirked evilly.

"It's better than someone who still doesn't have a bride."

Yan almost choked on the air from Ming Hui's hateful remark. This brother of his was really looking for trouble. Before long, the two of them entered a heated debate with each side refusing to back down.

On the side, Shu was looking at the two of them expressionlessly. However, inside his heart, he could only think about how these two people never grew up. They were still as childish as ever, bantering endlessly like that. After some time, he interrupted the two of them.

"Your Majesty, Lin Hong is here."

"He finally arrives?" Yan immediately sat on the chair followed by Ming Hui. He already inquired about Lin Hong from Jun Hua before and he knew that Lin Hong also inherited his father ability in speaking and very knowledgeable. Because of that, he wanted to use the other party to be the minister. That was after gained permission from Jun Hua.

Lin Hong walked into the room calmly. Although he was only 17 years old nearly 18 in a few weeks, he looked older than that. Seeing Yan, he bowed respectfully.

"This subject greets the emperor."

Yan waved his hand, "Do you know the reason you have to come here?"

"This subject was appointed to be a palace official," Lin Hong already heard the matter from the letter Jun Hua wrote to him. When he first saw the content, he was surprised that she wanted to use him. His past was something that always haunted him. Nevertheless, he had vowed that he will do his best in work.

Yan nodded his head, "Shu will tell you what your task is. For the time being, you will stay in this city."

"This subject understood."

After sending Lin Hong out for work, Yan sighed and leaned back. Because he had to pose as the leader for a long time, he felt incredibly tired. This was the first time he felt that Soujin made a mistake in choosing him as the new emperor. After all, most of the time, he didn't maintain proper conduct due to his interest in making trouble.

Besides, due to him going out as a merchant, his way of speaking more or less already different compare with most of the imperial family members. Although he still could speak like them, meaning some things couldn't be said properly, he didn't like it because he often talked freely with his brother and friend.

"You shouldn't forget the etiquette of the palace, Third Brother. There are many people watching you now," Ming Hui reminded him.

"You too," Ming Yan retorted.

"Despite my surname is Ming, they see me as the doctor from Long Han city. No one should know that I used to be the princess of Ming Kingdom."

Yan changed the topic, "Is Ming Xiao still holed up in his mansion?"

"Yes, Lin San had given birth to a boy and he's adamant on not leaving his wife alone," Ming Hui smiled, "He's really lucky to get an heir this quickly."

"I'm sure he still wanted to gain more heirs. I will visit him after the marriage between Jun Hua and Soujin is finished. Do you want to come along?" Yan asked.

"I had to attend, right?" Ming Hui wore a tired face. Because Soujin and Jun Hua both were imperial family members, though without any blood relation, he had to attend the wedding as formality. It was the same with his own marriage, many people had to attend just because of his status.

Due to these two people selfishness, many nobles secretly complained because they have to travel back and forth from Ming City to Long Han City. Of course, no one dared to say their thoughts out loud because the honor of the imperial family was not one to be slighted, especially such a good leader like them.

Besides, many people admire the general and know that he was doing a great job at uniting the entire kingdoms in this area. Citizen from other countries was treated fairly well, and they knew that they will be safe because the military prowess from the prince and princess were extraordinary. In that case, just a little journey would not harm them too.

Although as the emperor Yan's name was not that famous, he was still known to other people as Young Noble Han. Since his identity has been leaked out, they knew that he too was not someone ordinary. He was a powerful person beneath his easygoing attitude.

"I will tell Lanying about the matter. Still, it will be far better if they can delay for at least a few weeks."

"Why don't you talk to Soujin?"

"I'm not ready to die yet."

"... You're talking as if he's a death reaper."

"That was my first impression when I meet with that cold general because he can't restrain his aura," Ming Hui said in annoyed tone. Because he was still a kid at the time, he felt terribly scared when he was near Soujin. It was only later in the future that he understood the reason and Soujin learnt how to hide his aura well.

Yan smirked at Ming Hui's answer, "Well, he has changed a lot. Let's go to Ming City."

"Your Majesty, your work is not over yet," Shu reminded him as he walked inside.

"Can I do it later, Shu?"

"There is more paperwork in the Ming City, Your Majesty."

"… I understand."

Slumping back to the chair, Yan started to attack the paper on the table with Ming Hui helping on the side.
