Chapter 80

Leo Manoban pointed to one side of the map. "Among the five big kingdoms in this area, Yuan Kingdom is the smallest one. They are the ones most likely to concede from the alliance if we were to talk with them."

There are five big kingdoms because Leo includes the Ming Kingdom. After all, Ming Kingdom is included in the list of the big kingdoms.

"Yuan Kingdom?" the emperor looks towards the southwest area of the map.

Indeed, Yuan Kingdom is the smallest one at this time. A long time ago, they were the biggest one, but because of the invasion, they lost their territory until only a small one left.

If not because of their prowess and ability, they would have long been reduced as one of the small kingdoms around the areas of the other big kingdoms.

An official looks at the map. "The location of Yuan Kingdom didn't border us straightaway. They still have the Pan Kingdom between the two kingdoms. How do you think you can go there?"

Leo shakes his head. "Although it's true that officials cannot go towards other kingdoms easily, we have another way; the merchant."

"Merchant? You're thinking of going inside as a merchant? They would definitely feel suspicious if a merchant comes there."

"Not an ordinary merchant, but an influential person."

Jackson got the feeling that this old man is shamelessly pointing at him. Among the famous merchant, who can be more influential other than Young Noble Han?

Many kingdoms have been coveting the wealth this person possessed and tried a lot of means to ask him to go to their kingdom.

He had been traveling before, but only during his grounded time. There's no way he could easily slip if he hadn't created trouble first.

Inside his mind, Jackson is thinking of a way to get grounded again. If he's in his confinement period, no one would bother visiting him and Jisoo can dispatch people to guard the area. It will be easier for him to travel far away. But he doesn't really want to create trouble this time.

The emperor's eyes lit up, but then he was not sure about it.

"Do you think Young Noble Han would help us?"

"You can tempt him by offering another city."

Jackson got the feeling that this Grandpa Leo had long since known that his other identity is Young Noble Han. If not, how could he point straight to his weakness?

Since this is what the other party wants, don't blame him for creating another trouble at the Manoban family place.

"Then, start looking for him! You stayed behind to prepare for the things to offer and the other is dismissed."

Leo watched the rest of the people go outside. He looks towards Jackson's back, 'does the young man notice him hinting to get help?

He didn't bother thinking about it anymore until the meeting is over and he had just found out that Jackson has been flooding his residence with water.

"Just where did he get all the water? Where did it come from?"  Leo feels another headache.

'That troublemaker! Let's see that boy got grounded for a couple of months again.

With that, Leo returned to the palace and complained vehemently to the emperor. Given that the emperor has been troubled by the war, he just ordered to have Jackson get grounded for four months to learn more about etiquette.

When he heard the news, Jisoo laughed until his stomach hurts.

"Just because you need to appear as Young Noble Han, it doesn't mean that you need to be grounded for months."

Jackson looks toward his brother with a reluctant gaze. "It's not that I want to, but I have to. Anyway, I won't be back for at least three months so keep them away from my residence."

"Are you treating me like your maid?"

Jackson shakes his head helplessly. "Come on, you know that I need your help. Besides, your task can be finished while you're staying in the capital and have your time with your... cough... bride."

Inside his mind, he complained profusely about this matter. If not because he doesn't want to create trouble, he would surely say his protest in front of Jisoo.

In this era, the only one who can group with women without anyone being suspicious would only be Jisoo.

"Fine, just remember that you have to treat me to Restaurant Han Yan for a week."

Jackson feels black lines appearing on his face. 'One week... how much money can he earn during that time?
This venomous guy is truly pushing his luck.

"Do your job well," with that, Jackson escaped.

Jisoo chuckled a bit when he sees his brother walking away in large strides.

He turned towards his attendant.
"Has Rosé come?"

"Yes, Young Master."

"Then, call her in!"

Rosé is wearing ordinary clothes when she comes. She's not sure about what kind of clothes is suitable to be a guard so she picks one that will allow her to have free movement, but at the same time didn't disgrace her.

The attendant brings her to Jisoo's room where the 'princess' has been waiting.

"Rosé greets Princess Jisoo."

Jisoo chuckled. "You don't have to be so formal with me. Had you forgotten about the time when we learned together?"

"That..." Rosé feels embarrassed to remember the time when she still played the music poorly. Then she remembers something.

"That music... Do you like it?"

Jisoo smiled. "Yes, you have improved a lot. Does that song for me?"

Rosé nodded. "I want to play a song for you during your birthday party, but I didn't get the chance so I used the test. I'm glad that you like it."

"You played beautifully. Let's have a walk in the garden."

"Ah?"

"You can act as my guard, but more importantly, I want you there as my friend. Or you don't want it?" Jisoo asks with a lower tone, portraying a saddened girl.

Rosé hurriedly shakes her head. "It's not that, of course, I'm willing! It will be my honor to be your friend."

"Let's go."

"Yes."

Jisoo had tossed the matter of the war to the back of his mind. If he can spend more time with her, that kind of thing can wait.

On the side, the attendant feels like crying. There are still mountains of paper he needs to look at, but he just dumped it to the side.

Now, he's the one who needs to finish it all...
