Ning Shu was a little excited when it came time for the army to set off. She was dressed in full armor. Her hair had been cut short and pulled up into a bun beneath her helmet and on her back was a red cloak that fluttered in the wind.
Ning Shu looked at herself in the copper mirror and was very satisfied.
“Princess looks like a formidable general!” praised Xiao Hong. “You’re probably the handsomest general!”
“Little girl, you sure know how to talk.” Ning Shu tapped the tip of Xiao Hong’s nose, then said, “This princess is leaving. Take good care of the Princess Residence.”
“This servant- this servant will be waiting for Princess to come back,” said Xiao Hong, choking up a little. “Princess must come back safely.”
As Ning Shu took in Xiao Hong’s earnest gaze, a strange thought emerged in her head. Xiao Hong’s manner was as if she was seeing off her husband who was going to the battlefield. Ning Shu immediately turned to take French leave. Lord ah. Ning Shu couldn’t help but feel the urge to flee from this gaze.
“Princess, you have to come back safely. This servant will wait for you ah~~~” Xiao Hong shouted towards Ning Shu as she waved her handkerchief.
Ning Shu almost fell down from her horse. She hastily tightened her grasp on the reins and rushed towards the military drill ground.
The drill ground was silent and filled with a stern aura. Only the sound of the flapping flags could be heard. Every soldier was in armor and held a spear with a red tassel. The view of this orderly scene was awe-inspiring.
>Spears with red tassels. The tassels serve to blur the enemy’s vision, making it harder for the enemy to catch the spearhead. It also serves to keep blood from running down the spear and making the spear shaft slippery.
