Chapter 309 This Will Never Change
Xiao Ning was also observing everyone's expressions.
After three years of subtle influence, today is the time to test the results.
If even the soldiers under her command could not accept her gender, then her dream of becoming an empress would be a fantasy.
But Xiao Ning believed in her soldiers.
I believe that the soldiers she trained will not look down on her just because she is a woman.
The generals felt strange when they saw Xiao Ning with his hair loose.
What is the general doing suddenly...
Didn't you say you wanted to confess something to them?
how……
Someone vaguely sensed something was going on and looked at Xiao Ning with a stunned expression.
Some people still haven't come to their senses and are looking at Xiao Ning in confusion.
Xu Chong looked at Xiao Ning with his hair loose and couldn't help but think that the general looked like a little girl...
Bah, bah, bah, what is he thinking!
If she knew that he had insulted the general in this way, she would definitely beat him with a military stick again.
Xiao Ning smiled at everyone, softened his voice, and said, "Do you remember the story of Miss Mulan that I told you?"
After hearing this, what else did the generals not understand?
Especially since she spoke in such a distinctly female voice...
The generals stared at Xiao Ning with their eyes wide open in shock, forgetting even to breathe.
The general they had been traveling with for more than three years turned out to be a woman!
It’s a pity that they thought the story of Mulan joining the army was too fake. How could a woman sneak into the military camp for twelve years without being discovered by other soldiers?
Now it's their turn, and they are no different from those soldiers.
Seeing that everyone showed no other expressions except shock, Li Yuan was the first to kneel down and said loudly: "No matter whether the general is a man or a woman, Li Yuan swears to follow the general until death!"
Before Xu Chong recovered from the shock of Xiao Ning being a girl, he suddenly heard Li Yuan's loud statement.
He also knelt down and said, "I also swear to follow the general until death!"
He was initially impressed by Xiao Ning's fighting power and would not change his mind because of her gender.
Even because Xiao Ning was a woman, Xu Chong admired her even more.
He would feel very powerful if he could beat a man like him.
A woman who might beat him...
Xu Chong had not seen many women, but those he had seen always revolved around their husbands and sons.
They are always docile and timid...
So when the general first talked about those outstanding women, he always felt that the general was making up stories.
It was not until he met Lin Sanniang that he realized that women could be so tough and strong.
The girl was like a vine growing wildly on a cliff. Although it depended on trees, it always grew upwards, endlessly.
now……
It turns out that when fighting, the brave and fierce general is also a woman.
There are few men in the world who can match the general, let alone women.
So it’s no wonder they were short-sighted and couldn’t see it…
Following Xu Chong, the other generals also knelt and declared: "We will follow you until death, General. This resolve will never change!"
Xiao Ning looked at everyone, the corners of his lips slightly curled up.
It seems she made the right bet.
The thinking of her soldiers has undergone tremendous changes in the past three years, and will not change just because she is a woman.
The generals looked at Xiao Ning.
As for what the general would do after entering Shengjing, the generals no longer asked any questions.
The stories the general had told them had already told them the answer.
Their general might become the Empress Wu Zetian in the story.
Create a different prosperous era.
And they will be the empress's loyal ministers.
"Okay, hurry up and get up. Next, let's discuss the marching route."
Upon hearing this, the generals stood up and gathered around to look at the map.
They were currently at the outermost edge of Dayong. If they wanted to return to the capital... even if they had to march quickly, it would take at least a month.
Xiao Ning quickly determined the marching route.
"Don't rush today. Let's relax. We'll reunite the army tomorrow and head back to the capital."
"yes!"
The generals raised their heads again and looked at Xiao Ning, who had his hair loose in front of him.
Her hair covered her slightly sharp brows, making her facial features appear much softer, and she really looked like a woman...
So their general was not a homosexual, he was just a womanizer who couldn't help himself.
Not to mention, that prince was a man dressed as a woman, and their general was a woman dressed as a man, and then they got married.
This fate...
It’s even more exciting than the stories told by storytellers in restaurants!
After the generals left, Li Yuan exhaled and said, "General, you were too risky just now..."
Xiao Ning said, "We'll have to tell them sooner or later. Do we have to wait until we reach Shengjing before telling them?"
"If they can accept it, that's fine. But if they can't accept it and it causes a mutiny, what then?"
"Tell them as soon as possible, so that if someone has other intentions, it will be easier to deal with them."
Li Yuan: "...I was mistaken."
Xiao Ning smiled and said, "It's okay, you are doing this for my own good."
Li Yuan added, "General, you don't need to reveal your identity. That way, if you become emperor one day, you'll definitely face less resistance..."
Xiao Ning said: "But if this is the case, how can I support the women of the world?"
"Being a woman is more effective than issuing any number of decrees."
"From now on, women will rise up and resist when they encounter injustice, and men will no longer dare to look down on women."
After all, emperors are all women. To look down on women is to look down on emperors.
In this era when imperial power is above everything else, who would dare to openly challenge the emperor's authority?
Even if the emperor had murdered his own regicide to come to power, he would still forge a will from the previous emperor to silence the world's gossips.
Li Yuan was educated. He clasped his fists in shame and said, "I understand."
Xiao Ning smiled and patted his shoulder, saying, "Alright, it's almost time. Let's go see how the kitchen is doing with the pigs and sheep that General Zhang sent."
Li Yuan responded and followed Xiao Ning out of the tent.
As soon as the two men walked out of the tent, they saw Xu Chong squatting not far away.
When he saw the two people, he immediately stood up and walked towards them, looking at them suspiciously as he walked.
Xiao Ning: "...What are you looking at!"
Xu Chong: "Tell me the truth, what is your relationship?"
"What nonsense are you talking about! Don't tarnish the general's reputation for no reason!"
Li Yuan couldn't help but raise his foot to kick Xu Chong, but he dodged it nimbly.
Xu Chong said: "No, I just want to ask one question. If it doesn't matter, then it doesn't matter. Why are you in such a hurry?"
Xiao Ning: “…”
She raised her hand and hit Xu Chong on the head.
"You bastard!"
Xu Chong covered the back of his head with his hands, turned around and glared at Xiao Ning, "Hit me again!"
Xiao Ning: "If you know a little bit, who would want to hit you?"
"You are always so partial. You only told Li Yuan such a big secret and never told me!"
He had noticed it when he was inside just now. Everyone was shocked, but Li Yuan had a calm expression, which showed that he had known about it for a long time!
Speaking of this, Xiao Ning's hands itched again.
"Li Yuan only knew this thanks to you."
