A couple of minutes before...

"They surely have strengthened the guard here," General Hen said solemnly.

Jennie nodded. Since she's not someone from this place, she cannot comment on it.

The guards have surely made it difficult for her to pass. But with her face and small stature, they decide to allow her inside.

"Your small stature is truly a big help." Hearing General Hen remark, Jennie's face darken.

It's not like she wants to have a small stature, but because she is a girl, there is no way she could have that big of a stature.

Not to mention that her mother is not that tall and her father... forget about him.

Jennie scanned the surrounding. "They seem very peaceful."

"The officials must have guarded the information they leak out. They cannot possibly let the whole world know about what had happened. The other kingdom might take advantage if the word goes out," General Hen explained.

Jennie had guessed so. "Do you have any idea where the princess might be?"

"The number of people she trusts is limited. I'm among one of them, but given that I'm sent out for war, I shouldn't have returned. The other person she trusted is Prime Minister Rei, but according to the information, he had switched sides."

"Where is his residence?"

"Over here."

Jennie had learned a lot about this place from what General Hen told her. She knows that the capital is quite big with many people going here and there.

The numbers of officials are also quite a lot and she knows that most of them had changed side. The princess is the legal successor and only if she died or gives the thrones can they hope to be the emperor.

The journey towards Prime Minister Rei is smooth and all. Jennie noticed the servants seem less than what a big residence should have.

Extending her senses, she could feel that the atmosphere suddenly turned dangerous.

"What is it?"

"It's like there are some changes in the atmosphere. Should we break in?" Jennie said.

General Hen nodded and hurriedly destroys the gate with his hammer. Jennie followed suit and then he heard the general beside her gasp.

"She's here!"

"You take her and I will distract the other," Jennie said.

She took out her sword. The guards who come to her are slashed in a matter of seconds. After finishing with them, he turned to look at General Hen who had carried Princess Irene away.

Jennie goes inside the room to clean up the last one, the prime minister.

With the prime minister' tiny strength, he is clearly not the match for Jayn Kim.

After that, he quickly followed General Hen to the alley.

"Did they follow after you?" General Hen asks.

Jennie shakes her head. Those people's martial arts are too low to chase after her. Given her speed, it doesn't require him much energy to shake them off from his tail.

"You're really great," General Hen has been fully convinced when he sees Jayn fighting that this small boy is indeed Jayn Kim.

The boy's fighting skill is not even better than him. He had to admit that the boy is indeed a monster in human skin.

Jennie rolled her eyes and looks towards the princess. "You might want to put her down."

Irene looks towards the two men before her. Her eyes widen in surprise as she looks at General Hen.

"You have returned."

"Yes, this subject really sorry that I cannot return in time and let this happen to you," General Hen said solemnly.

Irene shakes her head. "It's not your fault. Don't blame yourself,"

she turned her head towards Jayn. "And this is?"

"This is General Jayn Kim from the Ming Kingdom. General Tou negotiates with them to borrow him and let him help you."

Irene looks at the boy in disbelief. This person is a general? He's even younger than her and far shorter at that. How could a person like this become a general?

Jennie feels that the gaze from Irene is truly disrespecting her, but what can she do?

Her appearance is indeed not a match if she tells other people about her identity as a general.

They will doubt her and ask her about this and that. Sigh, becoming a general as a girl is indeed really hard.

"He's truly a general, Princes Irene," General Hen said again.

Irene nodded then she frowned, "But how can we get inside?"

"Why do you need to get inside?"

"To get the royal staff and to kick out those disloyal officials," Irene answered.

Looking at the princess full of determination, Jennie feels that this girl is indeed suitable to become an empress.

She's a strong girl and she would undoubtedly try to bring Mountain Kingdom to reach an even greater height. A girl like this is indeed worthy of being called a princess.

"With that, will you be able to become the empress?" Jennie asks.

"It's important, but there is still a ceremony I need, so I would need the support of some of the officials," Irene answered.

She feels weird that she could trust a man she had just met, but given that General Hen said that he could be trusted, Irene choose to tell the truth about this... ah. .. man.

Jenei nodded. There are some important matters too aside from getting inside the palace. She thoughts for a moment.

"I can help you get inside, but you need soldiers to distract the main army," General Hen had told him that there must be some armies guarding.

No matter how powerful he is, he cannot guarantee that he could beat close to thousands of people while being surrounded. If it's one hundred ordinary soldiers, he still can beat them.

"Leave it to me. I only need you to accompany her inside tonight," General Hen said.

"Then, so be it," Jennie answered
