As is widely known, white is only worn when there is a death in the family.
The princess and the young lady are making everyone wear white armbands to rob a place? That's just infuriating!
But what do the young lady and princess need writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones for?
Wu Shang and Wu Zhong soon returned with fifty or sixty bodyguards. A large, strong group of young men gathered neatly in the courtyard, a pleasing sight to behold.
"Wu Shang, Wu Zhong, come here." Ji Fengyao wrote on the freshly made white armbands with her right hand, and pointed to two stacks of white armbands with writing on them with her left hand, saying, "Two for each person, one on the left and one on the right. Distribute them to them and put them on."
When Wu Shang and Wu Zhong saw the two stacks of white armbands, they immediately felt a chill run down their spines:
On the left-hand stack of white armbands, a very conspicuous character "土" (earth) was written;
On the right-hand stack of white armbands, a more prominent "bandit" character was written in the same font;
The wild and unrestrained handwriting makes you feel arrogant to the extreme just by looking at it.
Not to mention that the base was made of white cloth;
Let alone wearing this to rob someone, just wearing it to someone's house would be enough to make someone with a heart condition die of anger.
"Your Highness, this...this isn't quite right," Wu Zhongsheng said listlessly, clutching a white armband and shaking it twice in his hand.
“Your Highness, we’re going to rob someone, this is a bit…” Wu Shang couldn’t understand what Ji Fengyao was thinking: “Isn’t this too blatant?”
What other black face masks did they prepare?
With these armbands on, they might as well just wear the Ninth Prince's armor and go rob someone!
Ji Fengyao nodded her little head, looked up and said matter-of-factly, "It's because we're going to rob someone that we need to wear this to cover our identities."
What are the people of our Ninth Prince's Mansion? They are soldiers who will go to the battlefield.
Those who went to rob were definitely bandits.
"We'll wear this. After we've finished the robbery, we can leave it at the crime scene. That way, they won't be able to pin the blame on the Ninth Prince's soldiers."
Wu Shang and Wu Zhong: "..."
Your Highness, you've probably forgotten that everyone in the entire Great Zhao Dynasty knows that the Ninth Prince's Mansion married you, a bandit princess!
By doing this, aren't you just making a fool of yourself by hiding something?
"Stop dawdling, it's getting late, hurry up and get ready to leave." Ji Fengyao stuffed the two stacks of white armbands into Wu Shang and Wu Zhong's arms respectively, urging, "If it gets any later, they'll both be asleep!"
Wu Shang and Wu Zhong: "!!!"
Holy crap! Does he have to be so arrogant?
Not only did the princess put on a white armband that said "bandit," but she also planned to rob people's homes while they were awake, before they went to sleep?
Is it that exciting?
If he plays such a big game, won't his prince be able to handle it?
These two grown men, who had experienced countless life-or-death battles, were now somewhat terrified by Ji Fengyao's words.
The group of guards outside were mostly those Wu Zhong had dispatched to gather intelligence year-round, not the ones who routinely guarded the Ninth Prince's residence.
Upon seeing Wu Shang and Wu Zhong carrying out these two piles of things, they immediately showed their resistance. One of the youngest guards, about fifteen or sixteen years old, had a complicated expression: "Commander, is it... necessary to wear these?"
“This is the Princess’s order,” Wu Zhong said, leaving no room for argument.
"This princess..."
The young bodyguard's lips twitched, clearly showing some disdain and resentment.
It was as if they were saying: I really don't know what the prince and the commander were thinking, how could they let a bandit run wild like this?
