History vs. fiction
It is a historical fact that maidservants stood with swords
In the novel, chapter 55, it describes the wedding night: "It is said that when Xuande saw the swords and spears arrayed on both sides in Lady Sun's room, and the maidservants all wearing swords, he could not help but change color." This episode actually originates from official history, not fiction. The Records of the Three Kingdoms, Book of Shu, Biography of Pang Tong and Fa Zheng clearly states: "His younger sister was talented and quick, fierce and vigorous, with the style of her elder brothers. Her maidservants, over a hundred in number, all personally held swords and stood in attendance. Whenever the Lord (Liu Bei) entered, his heart always trembled with fear." The novel vividly restores this historical detail.
