"General Xing (Jun Hua) greets His Majesty, Emperor Yang Zhou." The two of them curtsied or cupped their first to greet Emperor Yang Zhou.

Their etiquette was impeccable, the result of the many years of teaching in the nobility world. If their teacher were to stand in front of them, they would be proud of their disciple who could master the etiquette well even if they didn't actually use it much on daily basis.

It was just that people in this era was used to live in restrained manner. There were many people's eyes watching them and etiquette had become a way for them to distinguish a person's background.

"Please stand up." Emperor Yang Zhou looked at the two of them calmly. "Zhen* had heard of your deeds on the battlefield and Zhen felt that you've done really well. For that, Zhen expressed my thanks."

Nan Hua looked at Emperor Yang Zhou's appearance and quickly bowed down. "Your Majesty is too polite. This subject is only doing what she's supposed to do within her limited capabilities."

Long Qian Xing's eyes flickered when he heard Nan Hua's way of addressing herself.

Emperor Yang Zhou could also notice Nan Hua's stance and laughed. "Even if you're only doing what you're supposed to do, it didn't change the fact that you've saved Zhen's life."

"Your Majesty is exaggerating." Nan Hua didn't really want to accept this praise.

She knew that even if she did nothing, Emperor Yang Zhou would not die. But many soldiers from Fei Yang Kingdom might be the one who died because they failed to escape from the poison and attacks of Zhang Xu Kingdom.

Emperor Yang Zhou looked at Nan Hua and shook his head. "You don't have to be so polite. Zhen heard that you're addressing yourself as a princess from Dark Moon Organization. Would you also be part of the Imperial Family yourself?"

Long Qian Xing arched his eyebrows.

Pulling Nan Hua to become a princess directly?

"That would be too troublesome. The title princess is what this little girl used for herself in order to have a suitable identity, please forgive this little girl if it offends Your Majesty," Nan Hua explained unhurriedly.

Emperor Yang Zhou could see from Nan Hua's words that she was really not interested in becoming part of the Imperial Family. He himself didn't really want to casually pull others into the Imperial Family.

It would be really troublesome.

But her words seemed to be saying that she was only seeking an identity to be able to go to the battlefield.

"Zhen understands. Since you don't want to be part of the Imperial Family, Zhen will give you title in the military. Would a general suffice?" Emperor Yang Zhou looked at Nan Hua with smile on his face.

Nan Hua blinked her eyes.

Did she just become a general inexplicably?

If her twin brother knew that she had become a general at the tender age of 17 years old, it was estimated that he would be devastated. It seemed that even though their path was different, when she chose to enter the military, she directly crushed her twin brother.

But under the name Jun Hua, it was indeed difficult for her if she continued to be associated with Dark Moon Organization.

The people in Fei Yang Kingdom wouldn't trust her too much.

"Would it be to abrupt, Your Majesty?" Nan Hua asked carefully. "This girl might not be suitable to be a general without real achievement."

No real achievement?

Both Emperor Yang Zhou and Long Qian Xing thought of General Shang who died miserably under Nan Hua's hand. At the same time, they had heard of her deeds in the war with Yu Jin and also during the time she helped Long Qian Xing.

Saying that she had no accomplishment would be truly underestimating herself.

"In that case, this title will be temporary for this battle. Zhen have lost two good generals and need a replacement for them soon." Emperor Yang Zhou looked at Nan Hua sharply.

Not long ago, he heard that General Chi was coming to the frontline in order to coax his soldiers. The two adjutant in his army were not suitable to become a general, so he could only come even when he was injured.

And the soldiers who were previously under General Cao could only be reserve soldiers because there were no real leaders.

But Emperor Yang Zhou felt that it was quite ineffective.

What he wanted was people he could use in this war efficiently.

And looking at this Princess Jun Hua in front of him, he felt that she should be able to lead the soldiers well.

"Your Majesty trust me that much?" Nan Hua probed.

Emperor Yang Zhou arched his eyebrows and turned his eyes to Long Qian Xing beside Nan Hua. "I might not know much about Miss Jun from the reports, but I believed that my right hand will not pick any random people on the street to associate with."

Long Qian Xing looked at Emperor Yang Zhou speechlessly.

But he could possibly pick a random person to chat from time to time if he found an interesting person. The real reason why he could meet with many interesting people was because he had chance encounter on some of them on the street.

"In that case, I will not disappoint General Xing and Your Majesty."

Emperor Yang Zhou's lips curled up to form a faint smile. He felt that this young girl was really smart. She looked like a teenager, yet her mind was surprisingly easy to use and could understand him very well.

Unfortunately, she's a woman and he couldn't drag her to the court.

If he could have more people working for him on the court who were smart, it would definitely alleviate his pressure and burden greatly.

"Your Majesty, the war against Zhang Xu Kingdom might still take some time."

Emperor Yang Zhou's expression turned even more solemn.

"Speak."

"It's not easy for us to reach this position and Prime Minister Lei will not easily let us advance further."
