Flowers Bloom from Battlefield-Chapter 330: Getting the Permission

Soujin left the matter of politics to Yan and Ming Hui as he led the battle to conquer the remaining cities along with Jun Hua. Although Jun Hua no longer participated personally on the battlefield, her appearance alone made the soldiers worked harder. It took them several months more to finish covering the northern part of Pan Kingdom before they had to return to Pan Kingdom previous capital because of some matters.

Ming Hui confronted Fan Lanying's father after part of the conquest had been over. At the very least, there was no kingdom named as Pan Kingdom anymore despite many of the areas was still raising their blades towards them.

"I have fulfilled the promise I made."

Fan Dan looked towards Ming Hui for a moment. He had already seen the process as he was the part of the army, but he never thought that they would actually succeed. With each of the fight, he could see clearly the power of the Soujin's side was getting stronger each day.

He crossed his arm. "You say that you fulfill the promise, but there are still many parts from the previous Pan Kingdom left."

Ming Hui knew that. The conquest was not entirely over yet, but there would not be any big battle anymore as long as there was no major figure appeared. The biggest worry they have was Ye Jiu because this prince was very powerful, and he disappeared after that battle. However, they have to finish the other matter first before thinking about this young man again.

"We're going to conquer them all soon enough, General Fan Dan," Ming Hui proclaimed solemnly.

Fan Dan thought about it as he recalled Soujin and Jun Hua. "How long do you think it'll take the two of them to finish conquering the entire land?"

"It doesn't have to be them, right? There are many accomplished generals out there too," Ming Hui reminded.

Fan Dan nodded his head. There were indeed some other generals who Soujin deployed to take care of the battle in other places. Aside from that, they also have to make sure that the people didn't clash with each other. After all, they previously belonged to different places and have a completely different culture.

"You're correct."

After that, the two of them stayed silent. They stared at each other for a few minutes as they thought about what they were going to say to each other. To be honest, Fan Dan no longer disapproved Ming Hui like before anymore.

The young man was quite different than an ideal man who protected woman in the normal terms. However, he perfectly countered Fan Lanying as he could stand her strong personality very well.

"Do you still want me to wait, General Fan Dan?" Ming Hui asked hesitantly. He didn't really like to wait again, but if he had to, he would do it.

Fan Dan crossed his arm. "What is your age?"

"I'm nearing 20," Ming Hui answered. If he didn't count it wrong, it should be his birthday in a few more weeks.

"What about Fan Lanying?"

"She's 18 years old."

"Do you think she's already too old for marriage?"

Ming Hui frowned. "Not at all." free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐oｍ

In the first place, the disparity between his age and Fan Lanying was not that far. It was more normal to have a difference in age between three to five years rather than one year here. After all, women were considered adult when they reached 15 while men were considered adult when they reached 18.

Most of the people here would arrange marriage even before they reached the age. This made the disparity of age between men and women ranged around three to five years.

"Don't you prefer a younger woman?" Fan Dan asked again.

Ming Hui resolutely shook his head. Regarding a woman's age, he never bothered about it too much. For him, all he wanted is Fan Lanying. Even if there was a woman younger and prettier near him, he would never spare them any interest. His experience to live as a woman already provided him more than enough time to enjoy their beauty in the past.

"I want to know your ability in fighting first, young man," Fan Dan stood up. "You're allowed to use your secret needles. That is if you have time to use them."

"It's my pleasure, General Fan Dan."

The two of them stood in front of each other. Facing a veteran general like Fan Dan, Ming Hui could feel the suppressive aura coming from the general's body. It was pushing him down as the pressure could make ordinary person terrified out of their wits.

Holding the wooden sword in his hand carefully, he stepped forward and attacked the general. He didn't have much strength compared with the general, so the only option he had was trying to find the chance to attack this general under the barrage of attacks.

TAK! TAK! TAK!

The sound of wooden swords clashed with each other filled the courtyard. The two of them went on attacking each other continuously. With each attack, Ming Hui was pushed to the back. In the end, his foot bumped with the wall. The suddenness caught him off guard, and Fan Dan immediately used the chance to kick the young man.

*cough* *cough*

"Is this enough.. *cough* General?" Ming Hui coughed as he held his stomach. This general was very merciless. His stomach was hurting like crazy.

Fan Dan nodded his head contentedly. "That's for taking Fan Lanying away from me."

Ming Hui smiled wryly. Why did it sound as if he was a thief?

"Get up. We're not done yet."

"I won't be able to match your stamina, General," Ming Hui would be beaten up black and blue if he tried continuing the fight.

Fan Dan shook his head and pointed to the chair. "We need to talk."

"I understand."

In the end, Ming Hui and Fan Dan talked for a long time. Ming Hui finally got the old man permission, despite the general still grumbling. Going by the normal way of proposing, he sent his people to give the betrothal give first so they could get married early.
