Young Master Gu, Please Be Gentle

23 years ago, Clan Head Yuan Ming had stolen Jun Xiqing away and she had eventually ended up in the Jun Family.

Jun Xiqing was the next Jiu You Holy Lady. Her blood had special properties and she knew the art of wolf taming, which was why the Jun Family, who was undergoing political instability at that time, put all their hopes on her. This was also the secret that Yuan Ming had on them, which was the reason why Jun Xiyan had been doing all these for him.

The two of them were working with each other and also using each other at the same time. There was no genuine trust and they constantly suspected and kept an eye on each other as well. Now that Jun Xiyan was about to become President, it was natural that they would want to get rid of Yuan Ming.

But who was Yuan Ming? He was an old player of this game and had already seen Jun Xiyan’s true intentions from the start. This fallout was not something unexpected.

Twisting her head to look at him, Jun Xiyan snapped waspishly, “Are you threatening me?”

A chuckle left his lips. “So what if I am?”

“You!”

As the two of them bared their fangs against each other, a set of light footsteps approached them. Someone was coming.

They had lost.

Completely and utterly lost.

“Elder Sis,” Jun Xiling’s face was deathly pale.

Jun Xiyan shut her eyes and thought back to the moment before her father had passed. Her father had always been greedy for power and wanted the Jun Family to hold power for generations. Before he had passed away, he had told her that Qingqing was no ordinary woman, that she was at odds with the Jun family and needed to be taken out.

Between Xiyan and Qingqing, he had unhesitatingly chosen Xiyan.

As the eldest son of the Jun family, he had to protect their prestige.

But father, I’ve disappointed you.

Everything had changed today and the Jun family was done for.

“Your Highness, we’ve wronged you. We’re here to bring you home.”

“Yes, Your Highness, please come back home with us.”

The nine senators all swarmed forward.

Jun Xiqing stood at the river and slowly shook her head.

“Your Highness!”

Someone brought a table and a chair over and Jun Xiqing sat down. She raised her pen, just like she did for the past three years as she sat at the table, dealing with state matters.

The night breeze caressed Jun Xiqing’s face just like a gentle hand, making her beauty even more evident.

It was this moment that people would remember for years to come, when Her Highness from the legend, the youngest daughter of the Jun family, had her last moment as the President of the country.

Jun Xiqing raised her hand and wrote on the paper – A new name has come to power and it is now a new age. But there cannot be chaos in the country.

How could she be the President of Country Z if she wasn’t from the Jun family?

The senators rushed forward. “Your Highness!”

Jun Xiqing wrote something else – Everyone, listen to my orders!

The nine senators formed three rows based on their ranks, bowed politely and said, “Your Highness, please speak.”

—-From this moment on, Jun Xiyan will be stripped of her position. She collaborated with the enemy to revolt and hence will be sent to the martial court to be sentenced. Future generations should be warned – never give in to your own selfish desires. When the country is strong, the people will be strong.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Jun Xiyan trembled. She knew that her end was near.

—-Jun Xiling will be given the title of Princess An Le and will enjoy richest for the rest of her life, but she is to be confined to the Princess’s residence for the rest of her life and is not to take one step out of the doors.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

With that, Jun Xiling’s fate was set as well. She had thought that Jun Xiqing would sentence her to death but that wasn’t the case. Jun Xiqing was confining her for the rest of her life but would let her live a life of luxury.

Jun Chulin looked at Jun Xiqing.

She continued writing – I henceforth renounce my position as President and abdicate the position to the eldest son of the Jun family, Jun Chulin. You must do your best to aid the new President to create a peaceful and prosperous country.

Jun Xiqing was handing her presidential position over to Jun Chulin.

Frozen like a statue, Jun Chulin was unable to believe his ears. Even Jun Xiyan and Jun Xiling stared at Jun Xiqing in shock and only regained their wits after a long while.

“Your Highness!” The senators wanted to speak.

Jun Xiqing put down her pen slowly and got up, her bright eyes gazing lightly at each of them. They were filled with the pain of parting but also warmth and strength.

“Yes, Your Highness!”

The senators acknowledged her decision with tears in their eyes.

Red lips curving upwards, Jun Xiqing left with Ping Ping.

“We humbly see Her Highness off!”

The nine senators knelt slowly in the direction of Jun Xiqing’s retreating figure, bowing to her with tears in her eyes.

Jun Xiqing didn’t stop and left along the river.

“Howl…”

At this moment, a loud howl sounded in the night, piercing the clouds. In the distance, the legendary Wolf Iron Steed Troop ran over, bathed in moonlight, leaving dust in their angry footsteps.

They were here.

They were all here to send Her Highness off.
