In the Three Kingdoms period, the opening scene features the killing of Huang Gai, shocking Zhou Yu!

Liu Bei pointed to his nose.

"I'm just some nobody? I'm your son-in-law!"

"Son-in-law?"

The female soldier with the ponytail scoffed.

He looked Liu Bei up and down.

His eyes were full of disdain.

"Is this the son-in-law who, after getting married, didn't visit our wife for four months except for our wedding night?"

Liu Bei blushed and stubbornly argued:

"That's a tactical show of weakness! A tactic!"

"Alright, stop explaining."

The female soldier with the beauty mark under her eye flicked her wrist and sheathed the knife.

"The lady said that she saw too many things clearly in today's battle on the river."

She needs some peace and quiet right now, especially since the sight of men annoys her.

"If you wish to see the Lady again in the future, Your Highness, you'd better turn around."

Until this moment,

Liu Bei finally understood—Sun Shangxiang probably saved him simply because she thought it would be too embarrassing for her if he died.

……

It's not over yet,

The day after they moved into the Left General's Mansion,

The people and officials of Gong'an City witnessed what "beautiful high-pressure rule" was all about.

These one hundred maids were carefully selected by Sun Quan from Jiangdong.

Not only is her appearance top-notch, but her fighting skills have also been personally trained by Sun Shangxiang.

They distrusted the general's mansion's defense system and directly took over the defense of Liu Bei's residence.

Inside the Left General's mansion, all the original male guards were removed.

"These men are so ugly, they're ruining the princess's mood."

The female soldier commander—a long-legged woman named "Red Sleeve"

Pointing and gesturing while holding a list,

"That guy with the full beard (referring to Zhang Fei) is no longer allowed to enter the inner courtyard;"

That red-faced one (referring to Guan Yu) isn't allowed in either; he's too conspicuous.

That night, Liu Bei's residence was completely transformed into a "spider web cave".

Liu Bei wanted to go to the study to get a book.

As soon as I entered the corridor, I was stopped.

"Password."

"Miss, when did my house get a password?"

"That was during the day."

The female soldier on the right brushed a strand of hair behind her ear.

"This inner courtyard is under the jurisdiction of our madam at night."

If you don't want to become a "eunuch uncle," you'd better practice your password.

Liu Bei: "...This is too much! What's the password?"

The female soldier smiled sweetly: "Brother Zhao Yu is the most handsome."

Liu Bei almost choked on his breath:

"Let me say something else. I am, after all, the lord of Jingzhou! I can't bring myself to say that."

"Then there's nothing we can do."

The female soldier shrugged regretfully.

"Sisters, there's a thief! We can't get the password right, get ready to fire!"

"No, no, no! I'll talk! I'll talk, okay?!"

Liu Bei closed his eyes in humiliation, forcing out a sound through gritted teeth:

"Zhao Yu...brother...is the most handsome!"

"The voice is too soft; I can't hear the emotion in it."

"Brother Zhao Yu is the most handsome!!!"

……

On the third day, in the afternoon, there was a tea party for the female soldiers.

"Princess, Liu Bei is no good."

As Hongxiu wiped the blade, she said with disdain,

"I didn't see much of it before in Jiangdong, so I didn't take a close look. But after what happened on the river, the more I look at it, the less I see it."

"Exactly!"

Another female soldier, nicknamed "Green Waist," chimed in.

"The people we need to follow must be upright and indomitable. Didn't you see what happened on the river that day?"

The moment the words "on the river" were mentioned, all the female soldiers' eyes lit up.

Sun Shangxiang sat up straight.

"Right? You all saw him, didn't you? That Zhao Yu!"

"I saw it!"

The female soldiers all spoke in unison; anyone who didn't know better would think they were chasing after celebrities.

"That day, Zhao Yu stood alone in the reeds, and with one swing, he threw the lady directly onto the boat. The explosive power... tsk tsk, I was right there and saw it clearly."

"That's nothing. The boat I was on was moving slowly, but I saw it. He single-handedly uprooted that tree and used it as a stick, sweeping away everything in his path. I glanced at it through the boat window, and my legs went weak."

Green Waist cupped her face, her eyes sparkling:

"And that poem he wrote to criticize Grand Commander Zhou Yu! 'The mighty Yangtze River flows eastward'... So talented! Both fierce and eloquent, this is the kind of man we should follow!"

Sun Shangxiang slapped her thigh:

"That's right. Although I was very angry before and even cursed him to be single forever, I take back what I said now."

"My man, Sun Shangxiang's man, must either be able to defeat me or lead me to victory over the whole world."

Liu Bei? Hmph, he's more likely to lead me to escape.

He stood up, drew his longsword, and pointed it north:

"Sisters, who are we?"

"Jiangdong Women's Group!"

"What is our goal?"

"Behold the heroes! They've won the battle!"

"Well said."

Sun Shangxiang's lips curled up.

"Then what are we waiting for? This wretched Jingzhou doesn't even have a decent man."

Pack your things, take the best cosmetics, let's go to Xuchang to find Zhao Yu!

"Madam is wise!"

……

In the evening,

Sun Shangxiang finally agreed to meet Liu Bei.

Council chamber.

When Liu Bei brought Zhuge Liang in, he felt like he was there for a job interview.

More than a hundred stunningly beautiful female soldiers lined up on both sides, completely filling the room.

"lady?"

Liu Bei was just about to speak.

"Don't call me Madam."

"Uncle Liu, let's be frank. This marriage is pointless."

Liu Bei's heart skipped a beat: "So fast."

However, it wasn't shown.

"What makes you say that?"

"Back on the river, although Gan Ning was despicable, I also learned a lesson."

"In chaotic times, only the strong deserve to have a voice."

"These past few days I've been thinking, if Zhao Yu had been there when I confronted Gan Ning, he probably would have twisted Gan Ning's head off and kicked it like a football, instead of doing what some people do..."

Having said that,

He deliberately glanced sideways at Liu Bei.

Although the words "all they do is cry and scream" were not explicitly stated, the meaning was already quite clear.

Liu Bei felt as if he had been shot in the knee; it was a painful blow.

"So I'm leaving."

Liu Bei still wanted to retain her, since Sun Shangxiang was there and Sun Quan wouldn't dare to turn against him for the time being, meaning she still had some value to him.

"Madam, is the food not to your liking?"

"The food is alright, but the person is not."

"We're going to Xuchang to find Zhao Yu. I heard he's a high-ranking official there, and I'm taking my sisters to seek refuge with him."

Zhuge Liang stopped fanning himself.

He said gently, "Madam, Cao Cao suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Red Cliffs, and you are also Zhongmou's sister. It would be unwise for you to go north."

Don't give me that.

Sun Shangxiang interrupted Zhuge Liang.

"I'm just asking you, are you going to let us through or not?"

"If you don't let them pass, tonight I'll have Hongxiu and the others burn down your granary, and then I'll go to your residence and have Sister Yueying practice wrestling with you every day!"

"I hope you will wait a moment, Madam, while I go and discuss this with my lord."

"Discuss this quickly. If there's no response tonight, I'll take it as your agreement."

^

Outside the council chamber,

"My lord, this is a golden opportunity!"

"No! Absolutely not!"

If this gets out,

Liu Bei's wife took her dowry and ran off to join the enemy general. Does he have no shame?

"My lord, please don't be hasty, and let me have a word to say."

"The lady has a strong personality; if she stays here, she will be a troublemaker sooner or later."
