The Empress’ Livestream

Jiang Pengji said, “I am going to change. Watch over the people and ensure they don’t create any trouble.”

Li Yun nodded. He had regained once more his proud, tall and manly expression and looking sombre, he began to supervise them.

Downstairs, the fresh recruit, Dian Yan’s heart was already burning intensely.

He stood up adamantly for the women in the villages. Without hesitation, he went with the village men to fight against Tsing Yi army and ended up losing his family and home such that the earth became his bed.

Truthfully, amongst all the new recruits, he hated the existence of prostitution in the camp most. Such a group of people should never have been formed.

The military camp was where men with aspirations worked hard to establish their careers and a place of rest from fighting on the battlefield. Why were there such disgusting exchanges behind the scenes?

Perhaps Dian Yan’s reactions were offensive to the two other new soldiers. One of them tried to antagonize him.

“Sigh, is there something wrong with your eyes, why are you staring at me like that?”

Dian Yan asked accusingly, “Do you even know who these camp prostitutes are?”

The soldier replied with apathy, “Of course! They’re loose women. Do you, this big, black faced guy not desire a woman to shower your tender loving care on? It’s not that I want to criticize you, but look at yourself, such a poor and ugly sight, if you were outside, you probably won’t even get to hold a lady’s hand, yet here you are minding other people’s business.”

He controlled his fury and his voice became more solemn. “Many of these prostitutes are innocent young women and many were forcefully kidnapped…”

Those soldiers became unhappy, they stretched their necks and spat back. “What’s wrong with you, blockhead? Are you picking a fight on purpose? Your lord doesn’t care where these women are from, whether they were kidnapped or snatched. It has nothing to do with me.”

The soldier stood up and the volume of his voice increased by a notch. This attracted the attention of the others. He added, “If you are able to exercise self-control with those female troops at the women camp, don’t head over to have fun. Just mind your own business. Do you think you’re some saint—”

Another recruit spoke up against Dian Yan. “Those maidens in the women’s troops camp weren’t forcefully brought there. Neither are they kidnapped. They were recruited by an announcement from the district headquarters, and they willingly joined. Since they are content with serving men in this military camp, excuse me big brother, but don’t be a wet blanket. The district magistrate has compassion for us and understands how much we suffer, thus these gentle and meek women have been prepared exclusively for us to quietly enjoy, without stirring up trouble.”

At the beginning, Dian Yan had been hopeful, but he was completely jaded.

Why was it that on the surface, Xiangyang district appeared to be a morally upright and beautiful society, yet they’d boldly establish a prostitute camp?

One of them laughed heartily, “Exactly. Don’t make a big fuss. Otherwise there’ll be consequences. With a prostitute camp, you can enjoy yourself when you’re bored. Look at your boorish and rough features, you must still be a virgin. When the time comes, we will widen your perspective on how to unveil the bud, you will know what a woman likes in the future.”

These new recruits were blind and didn’t notice the lance corporal coach responsible for them or his conflicted expression.

The new soldiers were bold. How dared they say the female camp was a prostitute camp?

“A pity Maiden Jiang is absent, otherwise she’d teach these young punks a lesson.”

“Based on what our superiors said, Maiden Jiang will lead the troops from Hejian to assemble here. They will start moving at the end of the year. If everything goes smoothly, they will be here in a month.” The troops also once despised females, but now they dared not raise a harsh word, especially towards the female soldiers.

No one was bold enough to provoke her. Otherwise, she would ensure they would have no descendants in a minute.

Her moves were cruel, her methods caused one to grip their hearts in fear.

Truthfully, if not for prior trainings, they all thought they were going to die.

Once these men got tainted with the women, they would surely be at a disadvantage.

Kicking their crotches, poking their eyes, piercing their throats, breaking bones, pointing their middle fingers, kicking their feet, stabbing their hearts…

Never mind if the moves were cruel. Their speed was also rapid, and they had no chance to evade.

They were gentlemen who were educated in the classics and would not resort to such underhanded means. Perhaps it never crossed their minds that in the future, the female soldiers would be more cunning.

“They are still too young.” The lance corporal coach sighed softly. His eyes were filled with an expression like he was ready to watch a good show.

Yet he never imagined, since Jiang Nongqin was absent, there would be a “female soldier” who could teach these new soldiers a lesson.

Dian Yan was infuriated and disappointed in his heart, his rough and boorish face carried with it a strong aura of disdain.

As he glared at them, they supposed that Dian Yan was picking a fight. One by one they stood up and hid amongst the crowd. Since Dian Yan was tall, he had a natural advantage over them.

“What are you trying to do? If you dare make a ruckus here, be careful or you may be thrown out!”

Dian Yan smiled coldly. He was about to say he couldn’t be bothered whether he stayed or not, when a clear voice sounded from behind him.

“Which imbecile is boasting freely here, saying the women’s troop camp is a prostitute camp? Step forward! Now!”

Dian Yan turned his head to check whose voice it was, only to see a tall-build, well-proportioned young lady standing nearby. She held a wooden spear in her hand, and she wore a proud, cold smile on her plain, fair face. She glanced at them coldly…

This person comes with animosity, Dian Yan noticed at the first instant the cruel aura, and he determined to step back.

The others were unaware. Instead they stretched their necks up curiously, crowding around to see the ‘female troop’ from the women’s camp.

Li Yun followed the situation closely. He almost spat when he saw Jiang Pengji.

Did his lord refer to disguising herself as a female only to change her clothes and bun her hair into a neat hairdo?

Where was the plucking of eyebrows and applying of lipstick?

Did she just come out with her plain face?

Where were the two bumps of protruding flesh on her chest?

Where were they?

Li Yun secretly had a glimpse of the lord’s chest, and it appeared completely flat.

However, don’t be quick to judge, his lord changed into female garments and styled her hair more femininely was a rather interesting phenomenon…At least, if someone was partially blind, they might mistake his lord as female.

Li Yun observed from the side and waited patiently for his lord to defeat all the new troops.

“Wow, what a bride…”

Seeing such attitude from her, some troops gave in, but there’ll always be those who are fearless. They were adamant that a women’s camp was a prostitute camp and thus, they didn’t need to be respected. Instead, they lived to serve men in bed…

Though her disposition wasn’t like the average woman, they weren’t afraid, instead they had an indescribable feeling.

“Alright, alright, if Maiden insists that the women’s camp is not a prostitution camp, then we’ll change its name. What do you think?”

She pursed her lips, the wooden spear in her hands was being controlled by her agile fingers and she displayed a stance of martial arts with it.

“How about no!”

The instant she stopped speaking, the head of her wooden spear slapped the other man in the face.

“This rude wretch, why are you beating people?”

Her move was too sudden, that the recruit couldn’t react in time. He lifted his hand to wipe his mouth and blood came back on his hand.

He felt his teeth with his tongue. One felt loose.

A gentle smile broke across her face, and she said, “I’ll not just beat you up. I’ll hit you until you can’t stand.”

They fought the dispute with words, but this was not Jiang Pengji’s style. She never waited for the other party to get into position before she fought.

The wooden spear in her hands was as swift as her arms; wherever it pointed, it hit precisely. The shadow of the spear seemed like it disappeared to naught.

Distracted for a split second, the new soldier suffered multiple blows. He rolled on the ground in excruciating pain.

After beating them up easily, she was bored. She challenged the others, “Who else concurs that a women’s battalion is a prostitution camp?”

The other recruits saw her smug face, they inevitably became furious.

“Is it not?”

“It was originally a prostitution camp—”

Jiang Pengji laughed sinisterly while holding her wooden spear, saying, “Do your bones itch now? Do you want a beating?”
