The Queen's Destiny
7. Arguing
Lianjun and Fanchen circulated his gaze around him. Lianjun's forehead is slightly wrinkled. He felt a little confused, where was he at the moment?
Lianjun then got up from his seat, then patted his dirty clothes gently on the ground. He glanced at Fanchen who was focusing on looking around him. Lianjun then shifted his gaze.
Ggrr, though,,
Faintly faint, there was the sound of an animal. Lianjun who heard the growl of the animals, immediately put on a vigilant attitude. He watched his surroundings, finding a swaying bush.
Lianjun then pulled Fanchen's arm to stand up. He then grabbed something from behind his shirt.
Bruuk, up,,
A large-bodied tiger leaped from the bush in front of Lianjun and Fanchen. Fanchen who saw the tiger pulled up his sleeve, prepared to attack the tiger.
Aa's hotshot
Lianjun who saw his sister's behavior growled resentfully in his mind. 'This guy, can't he see the situation? 'Inner Lianjun was upset.
Lianjun then threw a small white ball into the air, which he had taken from behind his clothes. The ball then exploded, covering the vision of the 3 creatures that were there, as it became a fog.
Lianjun and Fanchen then disappeared from his place earlier..

Lanhua wiped her forehead dripping with sweat. He sighed softly and then laid his body on the ground. Yuna then ran towards Lanhua who was lying down, giving her some drinking water.
"Thank you" Lanhua said slowly. His hand then grabbed the glass filled with water in Yuna's hand, then gulped it down.
"Thank you back" Yuna replied with a sweet smile. Yuna then spread her body on the ground.
It had been 10 days of Lanhua being in a vacuum, training her physical strength. It was quite satisfying for Yuna, as Lanhua trained without coercion.
After Lanhua completed her training for a few days, Yuna intended to train her using the sword, and learn martial arts.
Yuna sighed softly. He looked at the empty space sky. At a glance, he saw Luna's face in the sky, leaving her stunned.
Yuna's eyes looked far away. He felt his heart miss his sister. Luna's eyes, so similar to Yuna's sister. Yuna then closed her eyes.
Lanhua turned her head, looking at Yuna who was closing her eyes. Lanhua shook Yuna's body slowly, making Yuna open her eyes.
"Let's go to the house" Lanhua said as she stroked Yuna's head. The house Lanhua meant was their residence in this vacuum. Yuna just nodded. The two then went home.
••••••••••••
Lianjun and Fanchen are in a forest, out of nowhere. Lianjun snorted in annoyance, feeling being toyed with by the small ball. While Fanchen, now looking at his brother with a difficult look at the art.
"Sister, how did you get that ball? "Ask Fanchen curious. "Later you'll know. But not now. The ball was really upsetting. Now, let's get the hut up here. It's impossible if we're going to continue sleeping on the tree" Lianjun's reply made Fanchen look up at his brother.
Fanchen was about to say something, his mouth open. But not until his voice came out, Lianjun had already left himself. Fanchen just exhaled slowly, then caught up with the older brother.
Lianjun and Fanchen then cut the branches of the tree to make a house. Fanchen did not know how his brother could get two sharp pedanh, even though he did not see any swords around him. Fanchen ignored the curiosity in his heart, then helped his brother cut the branches of the tree to make a home.
Finished cutting off the branches, Lianjun and Fanchen then built a house there. The two were busy to and fro lifting a tree branch that was heavy enough for the two of them.
Until nightfall, the work that Lianjun and Fanchen did was almost done. Lianjun had no intention of sleeping in the house, then climbed a tree and slept on a tree. Fanchen simply followed his older brother's behavior, like a chick following its mother.

Lanhua came out of the vacuum. Previously, Luna told him by telepathy, if he was summoned by the Ming king, the father of Yanhua's daughter. Lanhua then rushed to change her clothes and put on a veil. He has not intended to tell his new face, maybe he will give a surprise to everyone. Lanhua then went to look for Luna.
"Daughter, please follow nubi" Luna said politely. "Oh, of course. Bring me a stretcher and a snack. I'm lazy to walk" Lanhua replied in a commanding, haughty tone. "Haha.. "Laughter both broke seeing the drama they were doing.
Lanhua rubbed the tip of her eyes that let out tears from laughing for too long. "Already, stop. All right, where's the way? Show me" Lanhua said seriously. Luna smiled as she nodded her head. The two of them then went away from the Rose Pavilion, the residence belonging to Lanhua.
Arriving in front of the palace hall, Lanhua was presented by a slightly brownish red building. Yep, this color is the typical color of the Fire Kingdom.
"Crown princess Yanhua entered the hall" the eunuch shouted loudly. Lanhua immediately stepped her feet into the hall.
Inside the hall, he became the center of attention of the ministers who were apparently also being invited by the king. Lanhua immediately stepped her foot into the middle of the hall.
"What's wrong? "Ask Lanhua without greeting the king, making everyone who was there look straight at him.
"Daughter, where's your manners? "A soft voice broke the silence in the palace hall. Lanhua's iris eyes moved to the source of the sound.
A woman in red was sitting next to the king. "Who are you? "Ask Lanhua with raised eyebrows. The question Lanhua gave left everyone engulfed in confusion.
"Daughter, don't you remember me? I'm your mother" said the woman with an affectionate look at Lanhua. However, the gaze of those eyes was different from Lanhua's point of view. That look, looking like he wanted to torture and kill himself.
"Isn't Yanhua's daughter's mother dead? Why did she confess to the princess' mother? "Lanhua Mum.
"Daughter, how can you forget Grand Concubine? He always takes care of you with all his heart. Do you not have a return? "A middle-aged man from the ministerial faction looked at Lanhua full of sneers.
Lanhua only glanced at the middle-aged man without replying to his words. Lanhua then looked back at the man sitting on the throne, the king of fire.
"So, what's the problem? "Ask Lanhua impatiently. The king who was above the throne could not hold back his anger anymore.
"Aren't you being taught manners? Where's your manners? After you hurt my beloved daughter, your behavior becomes even more so! Are you asking for punishment?! "The king's shout was loud, his voice was intercepting inside the palace hall.
"Only a fool and a desperate man asks for punishment. Besides, I was never taught manners. The matter of manners, I can only respect people who respect others" Lanhua replied loudly. I don't know why his heart has no compassion or pity for others, except those in need.
"Your Majesty, do you have no respect for the king? Your Majesty, you as a princess should be able to honor the king" the man again sneered at Lanhua.
'That man, what is the matter with princess Yanhua? Really disturbing inner Lanhua upset. Lanhua turned her body to look at the middle-aged man earlier.
"I'm surprised, from my point of view, you're just a minister. But, why do you dare to judge me, who is higher in caste than you, old man? "Lanhua Speak with furrowed eyebrows. Honestly speaking, Lanhua had absolutely no idea who that man was. Minister, or even a general. But from the way he spoke, Lanhua concluded that the man was a minister.
The middle-aged man's voice was choked in his throat. 'Well, where's his courage? ' the middle-aged man's mind was upset, until his face looked red.
"My daughter, my daughter. You misunderstood what my father meant. I just want you to change your attitude, son" the woman sitting near the king's throne said. Lanhua raised one of her eyebrows.
'Oh, so they're mother and son? It's just that they're the same as cornering me. One fortress apparently.' Inner Lanhua with head nodding slowly.
"Enough. Don't talk anymore. Yanhua, have you forgotten what I said? I'm asking you to apologize to Chi'er. Did you forget?! "The king said in a high tone. "When did you say that? "Reply Lanhua without hesitation.
"Daughter Yan, you are truly outrageous! We're here to see what you're doing princess. Where's your manners? Don't embarrass this kingdom, because the princess has no manners! Chi'er, he's hurt because of the princess. What are you, an honorable princess don't remember?! "The middle-aged man again said in an excited tone.
The corner of Lanhua's lips slightly raised, forming a slanted smile. "Why would you say such a thing? Is there a king from the neighboring kingdom? The emperor? A deity? The angel? "Reply Lanhua streak.
"Nothing at all. Here there are only the ministers from the Fire Kingdom. There are no ambassadors, nor emperors here. So, how could this princess humiliate the kingdom? Unless someone deliberately spreads deceitful gossip around the world. Trouble remembering that I interrupted Rou Chi, blame it on your honorable king. I forgot everything because of him" Lanhua replied loudly. His chin pointed towards the king who seemed to be preparing or even had already calmed himself.
"Daughter, take care of your words" still with the same woman, she spoke again in a firm, yet gentle tone.
'Geez, goodass. Your heart is rotten, once. Pretending to be good is more evil than criminals. Hadeeh, why can I get lost here' Lanhua muttered inwardly. Lanhua then raised her chin.
"Yes, yeah, whatever. I wanna go. Thank you for interrupting my time" Lanhua then left the hall in silence.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
On the road to his pavilion, Lanhua was unceasingly grumbling. His voice seemed to run out because he was squeaking continuously. Aah, stop. There's no point thinking about that. I'd better see Yin, uh errat, Luna, he thought.
Lanhua then continued her footsteps.....
