The Mountain Kingdom

"I thought that you didn't want to visit them?" Seulgi looked toward his niece with a frown. The little lass was surely changing her plan without informing them before.

Jennie shrugged, "Well, Emperor Mou delays the war for a longer time, so I want to use the time I get by visiting my new friend."

She had heard the news of him marrying Annie. Although the news should be something normal, she found it rather weird considering how Annie has been chasing after Lisa all these years. How could she suddenly give up just like that?

Still, no matter how curious she was, there was no way she could infiltrate the Kai Kingdom once again and asked that empress about the cause. 

Not to mention there was going to be a war and she was needed on the frontline. The empress also would not tell the answer easily considering her position now.

"..." If that was the case, you should tell us sooner.

Seulgi didn't come along because he wanted to, but because he wanted to supervise the training for the rest of the soldiers during the war. 

The matter of the palace was handed to Kuina much to the girl's annoyance, but she still agreed as long as she got the officials' help since it was practically impossible for her to master everything that quickly.

"You can go back first, Uncle," Jennie added, "I just want to visit my friend for a moment before going to the border and taking the soldiers to war."

"In any case, I'm not leaving you alone," Seulgi rubbed his forehead.

When Jennie disappeared from his attention before, Chan threw his rage towards him for a long time before he finally calmed down.

If he were to leave Jennie alone again, he couldn't imagine how Chan would react.

Jennie shrugged, "Don't worry. I won't tell Grandpa."

"..." You don't have to tell him. He would already know if I leave you alone.

"Just don't take too long. I will take this chance to stroll the place around," Seulgi waved his hand to tell Jennie to go away.

Jennie nodded and slipped away from the place. 

When Jennie disappeared, Seulgi finally remembered that the little lass was still dressing up as a girl.

Wouldn't the little boy be stunned speechless if he saw Jennie like this?

She quickly arrived in the garden and saw a bunch of boys working in the field.

They were looking happy despite working under the hot glare of the sun and the vast amount of fields they needed to work on.

Among them, she quickly spotted Elly who was working quickly and efficiently.

"Elly," she called the other party.

Elly turned around and was stunned in his place. He felt that the sun was tricking him today because he could see a girl as pretty as a goddess in front of him.

Wearing a fine blue dress, exquisite skin, and hair, there was no way he wouldn't be stunned and speechless.

If that girl didn't wear a veil, he might have fainted on the spot out of shock.

"Yes?" He asked timidly.

Jennie smiled at him, "Have you forgotten about the friend you make in that carriage?"

The friend he made in that carriage?

Elly's brain quickly worked to remember the time he spent in that carriage.

He didn't remember making friends with a girl at that time. The one he made friends with was that big brother...

Wait...

"Jayn?" He asked with a trembling voice.

"Mmm," Jennie acknowledged it, "And here I thought you have forgotten about me."

"I didn't forget..." I just didn't recognize you in that appearance.

Elly gulped his saliva down as he forcefully tried to come to terms that the 'big brother' he met before was, in fact, a lady, a stunning one at that.

Now that he thought about it, he found that her dress was extremely exquisite.

Could it be that she was someone with a high ranking in this kingdom?

If that was true, why did she sneak in as an orphan and get sold as a slave?

"There are a lot of things I didn't tell you before," Jennie smiles wryly.

It was not her intention to hide it from him, but she couldn't tell him at that time.

In any case, she only came to check up on him and not to explain things.

"I see," Elly nodded his head, "May I ask for your real name?"

"Ah yeah, my name is Jennie," Jennie answered.

Elly mouth gaped open once again. Could you please not have such an outstanding identity?

Jennie was the princess of Mountain Kingdom and everyone knew how much of a beauty she was.

Now that she is standing in front of him, he felt that he has been blessed by Heaven to be able to meet her.

"Stop being so surprised," Jennie said. "I come here to check on you and see what are you doing now?"

"Oh, we are being sent to an orphanage in this city," Elly pointed to a building not far from them, "They give us the option about the path we want to take in the future because there is a high chance that I won't get adopted anymore."

Jennie could understand that. Elly already reached the age of 13, it was unlikely anyone would want to adopt him.

"I choose to be a farmer here," he grinned, "Although I'm still just a worker today, I'm sure that I will become a successful farmer in the future later on."

Jennie nodded her head, "I'm sure you can. You seem to be very familiar with farming. Did you also farm with your mother?"

Elly smiled widely, "Of course, I loved to work in the field with my mother. She always taught me a lot of things about farming and I'm a quick learner, so I learn everything fast..."

As Elly told her his story, she listened to them. Most of them were about his experience in farming and he even told her more about farming that she didn't know.

After spending the time talking for almost an hour, Jennie bid her farewell because she still has work to do.

"I hope we can meet again in the future," Elly grinned.

"If you become a successful farmer, I will summon you to the palace," Jennie promised.

From the way Elly talked, she knew that it would only take time for him to become a successful farmer.

In any case, she wouldn't bother him anymore.

"Okay. Good luck Princess."

Jennie walked away from the field and headed towards her carriage.

She found her uncle was looking at her with interest.

"What is it, Uncle?"

"I don't know that you like farming so much. Do you want to have a personal garden?" He asked mischievously.

Seulgi should have known that she wouldn't have the time to tend a field by herself, but he still said something like that.

She looked towards her uncle with a smirk, "If I can have my Uncle as my gardener, I wonder how that would be."

"You little brat! I'm the emperor, not a gardener."

The two of them bantered around while the carriage started moving towards the border of the Kai Kingdom.
