Su Binglan did not possess such knowledge when she lived as Lan Ruobing. Moreover, the latter was in poor health and had to train her Shadow Guards for her brother and the Deceased Royal’s Mansion.
The six Sacrificials were even more shocked after hearing Su Binglan’s words. They typically only had two jobs as Luo Jin’an’s subordinates, which were assassinations and protection.
However, Su Binglan wanted them to do accounting, management, and draw maps. Although the Sacrificials knew how to read maps, they did not know how to draw them.
Since Su Binglan was their new master, they could only obey unquestioningly.
She looked at them and said. “You can voice vour thoughts. Although vou
must obey, you can also tell me if you don’t understand something.”
She did not want to nurture the Sacrificials as she nurtured the Shadow Guards. Instead, she wanted to groom the former toward becoming business managers.
The Sacrificials looked up at Su Binglan.
‘Musn’t we obey our master without question? But she allows us to voice our doubts and thoughts.’
They saw Su Binglan’s encouraging expression. Su Yi spoke on his partners’ behalf, “Master, how will learning such things benefit us? What do you need us to do?”
Su Binglan smiled. “Well, the more knowledge you acquire, the more you can accomplish, right? For example, learning to draw a map will allow you to transmit information better during a battle, even though the existing map isn’t accurate.
“Then, you can use your newfound map drawing skills to adjust the inaccurate map. We can also use encoded messages when transmitting information to our men. Then, our enemies can’t decipher our messages even if they somehow acquire our information.”
However, the Sacrificials did not know what encoded messages were. One asked, “What are encoded messages, Master?”
Su Binglan patiently explained, “Codes are something we can create ourselves. After creating and memorizing them, only we can understand the encoded messages.
“You can decipher the content of a message by simply looking when we establish our codes. For example, if I write 3211, you can find the corresponding word according to the Arabic numbers I will soon teach you. You’ll know what my encoded message means once you connect them.” The Sacrificials were in awe and looked at Su Binglan in disbelief.
‘Why haven’t we considered this sooner? If we did, the Wei family wouldn’t have worried about outsiders acquiring our messages and information during the war.’
When the Wei family got wiped out three years ago, the Sacrificials suspected there had been a leak in their information. That was why the enemy could grasp the Wei army’s formation.
If the Sacrificials used coded messages, even the local spies would not know the contents of the former’s messages.
‘It seems using codes is highly beneficial. Master thought of an excellent method for transmitting messages.’
The Sacrificials now looked at Su Binglan admiringly. They knew their master was an intelligent one.
Su Binglan continued, “l know you’re all capable of assassinations and intelligence gathering. However, don’t think I’m wasting your talent by making you shop managers and accounters.
“On the contrary, it’s easier to gather information in shops and restaurants people frequent. The customers discuss many things while eating, even crucial information.
“If you inadvertently hear such things, you would have gathered the latest information. So, do you think we can gather information as shop managers now?”
The Sacrificials nodded solemnly and agreed with their master. They had never considered gathering information through eavesdropping on customers. They only thought it was the job of intelligence personnel.
However, they now knew they could gather information independently. Ultimately, the Sacrificials would become multi-talented.
Su Binglan added, “l will also teach you to disguise yourselves. The highest level of disguise is to dress casually, sometimes even as a woman, to carry out missions.”
Su Shiliu raised his brows, wondering, ‘How can we disguise ourselves as women?’
Su Binglan took a makeup box she had made long ago. She had even done Miao Zhizhi’s makeup for the latter’s wedding.
Su Binglan asked, “So? Who wants to try it first?”
As Sacrificials, they had to be brave enough to try such things. The leader of the six Sacrificials, Su Yi, said, “Master, let me try.”
Although he did not want to dress up as a woman, he knew Su Binglan taught them these things to make them more versatile. Therefore, he was brave enough to try it.
Su Binglan nodded smilingly. “All right. Come here and sit facing everyone.”
Su Yi followed suit and faced the others for Su Binglan to apply makeup on him so the other five could see better. Su Binglan opened the makeup box and began applying makeup on Su Yi.
Su Er and the others looked on curiously, almost unblinking for fear of missing the details. They were surprised at how their familiar had turned into a woman with Su Binglan’s makeup. They could no longer recognize the person they were familiar with.
‘He looks just like a woman now!’
Since the people of that era typically kept their hair long, Su Binglan did not need to make and use wigs. Instead, she could simply style their naturally long hair to look like a woman’s.
Su Binglan spread Su Yi’s hair and gave him the most ordinary female hairstyle. She wanted the disguise to make it easier for the Sacrificials to blend into the crowd. That way, people would think he was a woman at a glance.
Su Binglan asked, “So, what do you all think?” Su Er and the others could not help but gasp.
“Wow, that’s amazing!’
“Is that you, Su Yi?”
The Sacrificials were in disbelief. If they had not seen Su Binglan applying makeup to Su Yi, they would have thought he was a stranger.
Su Yi said, “Of course, it’s me.’
He did not know what he looked like. However, he knew it was a shocking transformation based on his fellow Sacrificials’ expressions.
Su Binglan took a bronze plate and showed Su Yi his reflection, saying, “Here, take a look for yourself.”
Su Yi was stunned when he looked at his reflection. “Th-That’s me?! But how?”
He had never felt so shocked, even though he had been through many challenging missions. He knew it was not a simple disguise technique. To turn a man into a woman by simply using makeup was inconceivable to Su Yi..
