The couple had originally planned to send him inside, but when they saw the young prince already waiting at the door, they changed their minds.
After greeting the young prince, Gou'er waved to them and said, "Father, Mother, you go ahead and do your work. I'll be a good boy and follow the young prince!"
Gou'er acted very generously, trying his best not to worry his parents, but He Jiuniang still felt a little sad and reluctant to part with him when she saw his pretentious strong appearance.
Let's go.
Only after the dog was out of sight did Lu Baichuan pull her into the carriage. Next, Lu Baichuan would take her to the military camp.
Although He Jiuniang felt it was completely unnecessary to waste Lu Baichuan's time, she didn't refuse when Lu Baichuan insisted on taking her there.
The military camp was full of men, and his wife was the only beautiful woman there. Lu Baichuan felt heartbroken just thinking about it, so he naturally had to personally introduce her to the men to prevent any fools from messing with his wife and causing her distress.
"If there's anything, have Li Dazhuang come to me. I'll leave him here as your deputy, but I need to take the others with me."
He kept reminding her the whole way. He knew his wife was very capable and didn't need him to keep nagging, but he just couldn't help it.
He felt particularly guilty, as this was originally his responsibility, but he made her suffer for him.
"good."
He Jiuniang showed no impatience and listened to his instructions. She explained in detail which of the people were wild and wouldn't listen to her, and that they should be beaten; which of the people were cunning and she should be wary of; and which of the people were decent and could be given special attention. She explained everything in great detail.
He Jiuniang didn't say anything, but she kept it all in mind, so that she would have a general direction for management when she arrived at the military camp.
The military camp was stationed outside the city, which was quite a distance away. When they arrived, Lu Baichuan told her everything he had learned over the past month, and He Jiuniang had all grasped it.
Lu Baichuan helped her down from the carriage, and the soldiers guarding the camp hurriedly came over to salute.
Today, He Jiuniang specially changed into a neat uniform and tied her hair into a high ponytail. At first glance, she looked like a heroic female general, which stunned the soldiers guarding the camp.
When did Bei Yan get a female general?
Moreover, it seems that General Lu and this female general have a very good relationship. General Lu, who is usually indifferent to women, actually helped her out of the car!
The guards stared wide-eyed. The female general was indeed beautiful, but General Lu's gaze was somewhat sharp, and they dared not look at her for too long.
"General, who is this gentleman?"
Someone mustered up the courage to ask, but Lu Baichuan didn't answer, though his expression was extremely serious: "Have everyone assemble at the training ground!"
"yes!"
Military orders are absolute, and no matter how curious everyone was, they dared not delay their business and immediately ran inside to notify the others to assemble.
Apart from the guards on duty, everyone was training on the field and quickly assembled.
Lu Baichuan led He Jiuniang inside, stood at the front of the line, and surveyed the ranks below.
A very beautiful woman came to the military camp. Everyone wanted to see her and even whispered among themselves. The whole team was not disciplined at all.
It wasn't until Chen Bin, who had gone to the city gate with Lu Baichuan to greet her the night before last, saw He Jiuniang and enthusiastically called her "Sister-in-law" that everyone quieted down.
Is this the perfect lady the general spoke of?
Everyone was stunned. No wonder their general didn't get close to other women. With such a beautiful wife, who would want to go out and have affairs?
For a moment, everyone felt incredibly envious. They were all men, so why was Lu Baichuan able to rise to the rank of second grade at such a young age and have such a beautiful wife, while they were still just greenhorns with no wives in sight?
However, despite their sour feelings, everyone was still very curious as to why Lu Baichuan would bring his wife to the military camp out of the blue. Did he want to introduce her to them?
No, Lu Baichuan isn't that kind of person.
That means there's something else going on.
Everyone immediately fell silent.
Lu Baichuan then said, "As you can see, this is my wife. Afterwards, I have to attend to other matters. My wife has come to the military camp on behalf of the Emperor and His Highness the Crown Prince to supervise your training. My wife can exercise all of my powers in the military camp. Do you understand?"
Lu Baichuan used his internal energy when he spoke, so his voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for everyone present to hear him clearly.
Even so, only a very small number of people quietly replied with a "I understand," and they were quite reluctant to do so.
In this era of male supremacy and female inferiority, He Jiuniang's status was merely that of a woman in the inner quarters of the Lu family. Even if she had the status of an imperial consort, she was still just a woman in the inner quarters. What right did she have to come to the military camp to replace Lu Baichuan and exercise all the powers of a general?
Clearly, the soldiers were dissatisfied.
Lu Baichuan was a little angry. If there were any other way, his wife wouldn't have to suffer like this.
But this was the expected situation, which is also the main reason why he insisted on personally bringing He Jiuniang here today.
He Jiuniang wasn't angry at all; in fact, she even had a faint smile on her lips. She said, "I know you're not convinced and think that I, a woman, have no ability and am not qualified to be your leader. But that's okay. I like to let my strength speak for itself. You can each recommend the ten best people in your teams to come up and fight me. If I win, you'll listen to me from now on. If I lose, I'll leave right now."
Ten people?
Or are they the ten best people?
Is this lady joking?
"Sister-in-law, do you mean all ten of you should attack at once?"
Chen Bin was shocked and found it unbelievable, so he asked again.
"Yes, let's all go together, don't waste everyone's time."
He Jiuniang stood with her hands on her hips, looking very relaxed and at ease.
The soldiers felt humiliated. Although their team was indeed inferior to other teams, they shouldn't be humiliated like this by a woman.
Some people wanted to say something indignant, but when they saw Lu Baichuan, they didn't dare to speak. After all, she was a general's wife, someone that ordinary soldiers like them couldn't afford to offend.
"What are you all standing there for? Didn't you hear what my wife said? Those who are usually in the top ten, step forward!"
Lu Baichuan's tone revealed impatience. Although he had gone through the same thing himself, he didn't want his wife to follow the same path. He knew his wife didn't like these kinds of occasions.
At the order of the army, ten men stepped forward, each one burly and strong.
After nearly a month of training by Lu Baichuan, everyone's abilities have improved. To be honest, He Jiuniang is now facing even greater challenges than when Lu Baichuan first came.
"Come forward."
He Jiuniang waved for everyone to come over.
The ten people who stepped forward were all people who usually performed very well. Chen Bin was among them. He felt a little sorry for the fact that such a group of them were going to lay a hand on such a beautiful sister-in-law, so he said, "Sister-in-law, let's stop. How about we take them one by one?"
