In the summer of the 387th year of the Great Liang calendar, several northwestern prefectures of Liang suffered a century-long drought. Due to the government's ineffective disaster relief, wide...
After receiving Princess Huaqing, Sun Hao did not delay outside Iron Lion City any longer and immediately led everyone on their journey home.
As the route back, Sun Hao and his men still chose to cross the mountains of Canglong Mountain. After all, it was almost impossible for more than 300 fully armed heavy cavalrymen to successfully pass through the Suolong Pass where the Gule army was stationed.
It is said that the most elite First Legion of the Gule Kingdom is stationed at Suolong Pass. Currently, the First Legion remains neutral in the war between several princes.
Sun Hao arranged for Emile to ride a horse with Princess Huaqing. As for the sixteen eunuchs and nineteen palace maids brought by Princess Huaqing, since none of them knew how to ride a horse, they could only be arranged to share a warhorse with the newly appeared Tiger and Leopard Cavalry or the Xiliang Iron Cavalry.
This did not affect the speed of Sun Hao and his team's return journey. Two days later, Sun Hao and his team entered the mountainous area of Canglong Mountain again.
Princess Huaqing learned from Jinyiwei Xiao Qiang that Sun Hao led more than 200 heavily armored cavalrymen under his command and fought three times in and out of the tens of thousands of Gule troops outside Tieshi City. Sun Hao's real identity turned out to be the leader of a gang in Ganyang City.
This made Princess Huaqing feel incredible, and she couldn't help but want to win over Sun Hao.
Princess Huaqing then expressed her hope that Sun Hao could escort her all the way back to the capital of Liang State - Luo'an City, and promised to find Sun Hao a military position in the imperial guards that was no lower than that of a captain.
However, when Sun Hao heard this, he immediately declined politely.
Sun Hao is very satisfied with his current life in Ganyang City. Moreover, after annexing the remaining six branches of Qingyun Society, Sun Hao's net worth has exceeded 10 million strings of cash. Sanshui Society has also officially replaced Qingyun Society and become one of the seven major gangs in Ganyang City.
The main contributors to Sun Hao's skyrocketing net worth were Han Wei, the former leader of Qingyun Society, and Cao Qing, the former deputy leader.
Now Sun Hao is in Ganyang City. He has money, connections and status. A small captain of the imperial guards has no appeal to Sun Hao at all.
It was only then that Princess Huaqing realized that Sun Hao's Sanshui Society was different from the gangs in the capital that she had in mind, those that were dependent on the powerful.
Due to the special location of Ganyang City, its commercial trade is extremely prosperous, which also indirectly promotes the development of gang forces in Ganyang City.
In addition, the fee-sharing agreement reached between the Ganyang Protectorate, the provincial government and the various gangs in Ganyang City gave rise to the seven major gangs in Ganyang City, a behemoth with tens of thousands of members.
Ever since learning about the powerful strength of the Sanshui Club, Princess Huaqing has not mentioned to Sun Hao about escorting her to the capital, but her attitude towards Sun Hao suddenly seems a little ambiguous.
On the evening of the fifth day after re-entering Canglong Mountain, Princess Huaqing looked at Sun Hao who was practicing his spear skills, hesitated for a moment, and walked over. "Ah Hao, I have something I want to talk to you about alone. Is that okay?"
After the battle in Iron Lion City, Sun Hao's combat power value actually broke through 70 points, so in the past few days, Sun Hao practiced martial arts more diligently.
Sun Hao handed the spear in his hand to He Ruobi next to him. Because He Ruobi was good at using the spear, Sun Hao had been practicing spear with He Ruobi these days.
"I wonder what Her Royal Highness the Princess wants to see me about?"
To be honest, Sun Hao really didn't want to be alone with Princess Huaqing. Ever since entering the mountainous area of Canglong Mountain, Sun Hao found that Princess Huaqing seemed to always seduce him intentionally or unintentionally.
You should know that Princess Huaqing's charm value is as high as 97 points. If Sun Hao had not been concerned about her identity, he would have fallen at her feet long ago, and he would have also received an extra sign-in opportunity for the "annual sign-in system".
Even though Princess Huaqing was sent to the Kingdom of Gule for marriage, she was still a princess of Daliang. Sun Hao knew very well that princesses of Daliang were not easy to sleep with.
Princess Huaqing then said in a gentle voice, "Ahao, there are some things I can't tell others. I can only tell you."
Hearing Princess Huaqing say this, Sun Hao had no choice but to give He Ruobi and Yuchi Gong beside him a look, and then followed Princess Huaqing into the depths of the dense forest.
He Ruobi then asked Yuchi Gong with some confusion: "Yuchi, what did the young master's eyes mean just now?"
Ever since he received Princess Huaqing, Sun Hao asked his subordinates to call him "Young Master" again.
Yuchi Gong quickly whispered, "It's so obvious! The young master wants us to watch here and not let anyone else disturb the young master's good deeds."
If Sun Hao heard Yuchi Gong say this, he would definitely kick Yuchi Gong. Sun Hao's look was to let He Ruobi and Yuchi Gong follow behind to prevent Princess Huaqing from doing anything out of line.
He Ruobi hesitated, "Yuchi, she is the princess of Liang State. If the young master sleeps with Princess Huaqing, I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future."
Yuchi Gong said nonchalantly, "One is willing to fight, the other is willing to be beaten, what trouble can there be?
Besides, even if we get into trouble that cannot be resolved, the young master can just take us to the Kingdom of Gulu.
I think the Gulu army's combat effectiveness is quite weak. With brothers like us here, the young master may be able to achieve greater things in Gulu Country. It's definitely better than joining a gang."
Sun Hao followed Princess Huaqing into the depths of the dense forest and was about to ask Princess Huaqing what she wanted to see him about.
What Sun Hao never expected was that Princess Huaqing suddenly turned around and held a dagger to Sun Hao's neck.
Because Princess Huaqing's movements were so fast, Sun Hao was controlled before he could even react.
"Ahao, don't make a sound, otherwise I'm afraid my hand will shake and cut your neck." Princess Huaqing said very gently.
"You..." Sun Hao had just said the word "you" when he felt a chill on his neck, as if it was cut by the blade of a dagger. This made Sun Hao dare not speak anymore.
Princess Huaqing then took out a piece of cloth with her other hand and stuffed it into Sun Hao's mouth. Then Princess Huaqing asked Sun Hao to put his hands on his chest and tied his hands with a hemp rope.
In the end, even Sun Hao's feet were tied tightly with hemp rope by Princess Huaqing.
"Ah Hao, do you know?
If I return to Luoan City in my current situation, the current emperor will most likely use me as a bargaining chip to win over an important official in the court and marry me to him or his son.
If that is the case, it is not unacceptable to me, but I am worried that the current emperor will send me to marry again, and to a Khanate on the grassland.
None of the Daliang princesses who married into the grasslands had a happy ending. I might as well stay in Gule Kingdom and marry my nominal stepson!"
Princess Huaqing actually pulled down Sun Hao's pants and then began to undress herself...
Sun Hao never dreamed that he would be pushed back by a princess, but Sun Hao did not feel humiliated at all.
What surprised Sun Hao was that Princess Huaqing, who had already given birth to a prince from the Gule Kingdom, seemed to be having her first time.
