Gu Nuo’er didn’t think too much about it. She got into the carriage and left happily.
The moment the doorman closed the door, he felt a cold and sinister wind brush past his ears.
That feeling made his hair stand on end!
“Strange…” The guard couldn’t help but cower.
‘What happened?’
He didn’t think too much about it and closed the door again.
At this moment, a maidservant suddenly shouted from the backyard, “Hurry up and look for the doctor! The young miss has woken up!”
Gu Nuo’er’s carriage ran straight to the drill ground in the suburbs.
Ye Siming had been training his troops for the past few days.
His Majesty had given too many soldiers. Usually, when he wasn’t accompanying the child, he would be in charge of the soldiers at the drill ground.
When Gu Nuo’er arrived at the drill ground, she heard deafening fighting sounds coming from inside.
The rumblings sounded as if they were fighting.
The coachman was sent by the palace. He was afraid that the little princess’s safety would be in danger.
He couldn’t help but say, “Your Highness, please wait here for a moment. This subject will go and ask what’s going on.”
After saying that, the coachman quickly entered the drill ground.
Not long later, he came out and reported, “It turns out that Marquis Yongye is training his troops to fight. The soldiers were divided into two sides and fought each other to improve their combat awareness.”
Gu Nuo’er blinked her watery eyes, her small face filled with curiosity.
She walked towards the drill ground.
“I must take a good look at such an exciting thing!”
The reason why the drill ground was built in the suburbs was because of the need to provide a venue for the soldiers to train.
Therefore, it occupied an extremely wide area.
Gu Nuo’er climbed up a watchtower that was almost three meters tall.
A soldier was originally on duty here when he saw a little girl climbing up.
He was so frightened that he hurriedly gripped his silver-plated spear tightly. “Who is it?!”
“Phew…” The child wiped the sweat off her forehead and smiled obediently and cutely. “Shh, don’t be afraid. I’m here to see Elder Brother Siming.”
Gu Nuo’er had fair skin and big sparkling eyes under her curved eyebrows.
As the weather was hot, her face was so red that it looked like she had been kissed by the sunset.
When the soldier saw that she was the only girl, he gradually let down his guard.
Gu Nuo’er walked to the front and looked down.
The soldiers on both sides were bearing the upper half of their bodies.
They had blue or red cloth tied to their left and right waists to distinguish between friend and foe.
They were all panting heavily and were more or less covered in mud and dust.
It seemed that a fierce battle had just ended.
Ye Siming rode between them with a simple flag in his hand.
He was training them.
Perhaps because the weather was too hot, even Ye Siming was wearing a thin white shirt.
After sweating, the clothes stuck to his smooth upper body.
Under the sunlight, the youth smoothed his hair up, immediately making him look even more handsome.
Gu Nuo’er placed her small hand on her chin and let out a small cry “Wow~”.
Elder Brother Siming was so handsome!
There were at least 10,000 people present. The youth stood among them and sat on the black-maned horse, giving off a terrifying aura.
Ye Siming raised the flag and looked around coldly.
“I’ve emphasized to you many times that regardless of whether you win or lose, your flag mustn’t fall!”
“Losing the flag is no different from being a deserter on the battlefield. If there are people, the flag must be present. Even if there isn’t anyone, the flag still has to be firmly planted in the ground!”
The tone’s tone was sonorous. After saying that, he suddenly pierced the flag into the ground.
The flag representing the war flag immediately fluttered in the wind.
It made the youth’s cold eyes look even darker.
His long eyebrows reached his temples, and he was in high spirits, giving off an extremely fierce aura.
“Do it one more time. Don’t forget what I taught you again.”
