Zhenxi Protectorate, this name is very good."
"Brother Chen, I heard that Sun Hao started his career in Ganyang City and was once a gang member. I wonder if you could tell me more about Sun Hao's situation.
As the saying goes, only when you know yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.
To deal with this Grand Commander of Zhenxi, I must at least understand his character."
Chen Fengshi hesitated for a moment and said, "Zixiao, I don't know much about Sun Hao, so I'll tell you what I know.
Sun Hao’s father, Sun Zhe, is the new Grand Commander of Huaide Protectorate, but Sun Hao has always lived with his second uncle…”
As Chen Fengshi continued his introduction, Dong Zixiao's brows furrowed even more. "Brother Chen, is it true that there is no clue at all about the origins of those hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers under Sun Hao's command?"
Chen Fengshi shook his head and said, "Before, when Sun Hao didn't have many elite soldiers around him, one could suspect that they were left to Sun Hao by his uncle Liu Dongqi.
But now Sun Hao has over 100,000 elite soldiers under his command. If Liu Dongqi had these elite soldiers, he would have destroyed the Shaye Kingdom."
"Could it be that Sun Hao has the support of a certain family in Daliang?"
"Sun Hao has tens of thousands of heavily armored cavalry under his command, all equipped with top-quality Anlum horses. I'm afraid no family in Daliang can afford such a large sum.
Even the Prince of Yong'an couldn't have built such a luxurious heavy cavalry."
"Anlum horses are mainly produced in the Anlu Kingdom in the Western Regions. Could it be that Sun Hao has received support from the Anlu Kingdom?"
"Speaking of this, it's even more surprising. You know, even the Anlu Kingdom currently only has about 20,000 Anlu horses. Where did Sun Hao get the tens of thousands of top-grade Anlu horses?"
Dong Zixiao sighed, "There are too many mysteries surrounding Sun Hao. It seems that my role as the governor of Xizhou is not going to be easy!"
Chen Fengshi then reminded Dong Zixiao, “In order to support those hundreds of thousands of elite soldiers, Sun Hao will certainly not easily give up the taxes collected from the cities of Zhenxi Protectorate.
Zixiao, after you take up your post, don't be impatient and try to avoid direct conflict with Sun Hao.
To put it bluntly, if you anger Sun Hao enough and he kills you, the imperial court might even have to find an excuse to help cover it up."
"Don't worry, Brother Chen. I will discuss everything with the Grand Commander of Zhenxi."
When Xizhou Mu Dong Zixiao arrived in Ganyang City, Sun Hao's wife Luo Xuan had just given birth to a daughter for Sun Hao, so Dong Zixiao immediately prepared a generous gift and sent it to Sun Hao's mansion in the city.
Before Luo Xuan gave birth to a daughter, Pizhou Governor Chen Fengshi and Ganyang Army Commander-in-Chief Cao Tingjin had already sent a congratulatory gift.
Luo Xuan couldn't help but feel disappointed that she couldn't give birth to a son. In addition, Sun Hao was not around, which made Luo Xuan's temper suddenly become much hotter recently.
After Xizhou Mu Dong Zixiao sent someone to deliver a generous gift, an eunuch that Luo Xuan had brought back from the Gule Kingdom reported to Luo Xuan something that made her very angry.
A concubine in the family named Xie Wan'er had a secret meeting with an imperial guard officer under the command of Xizhou Mu Dong Zixiao. Xie Wan'er had just given birth to a son for Sun Hao not long ago.
Luo Xuan brought back a total of sixteen eunuchs from the Gule Kingdom. Now all these sixteen eunuchs have become the stewards of Sun Hao's mansion.
"Go get Xie Wan'er... Wait a minute, first invite Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, Zhen Luo, and Cai Wenji over.
Now that my husband is away, if anyone violates her husband's chastity, I will never let her go!" Luo Xuan ordered fiercely.
Soon, Da Qiao and Xiao Qiao, who were already mothers, and Zhen Luo and Cai Wenji, who were pregnant, came to the courtyard where Luo Xuan lived.
When Zhen Luo saw Luo Xuan, he immediately said angrily, "Sister Xuan, I just fell asleep when the maid woke me up and said you had something to talk to me about.
What's going on with you all day?
I'm almost nine months pregnant now, and I can't stand your torture!"
Luo Xuan and Zhen Luo have always disliked each other and would quarrel almost every time they met. Sun Hao's other wives and concubines have gotten used to it.
Luo Xuan, contrary to her usual behavior, did not argue with Zhen Luo. Instead, she said to the four girls in a deep voice, "I called you four sisters here today because someone in our family is not a good wife and is secretly meeting with a man.
Now that my husband is not home, let's discuss how to deal with this matter!"
When Da Qiao, Xiao Qiao, Zhen Luo and Cai Wenji heard this, their faces changed. Women who do not observe chastity should be thrown into a pig cage.
