The government was sending out wives, and I ended up with a princess from the previous dynasty!

"Teacher, this tiger tally can mobilize 150,000 troops! They are all the elite of the Great Jing Dynasty."

Shen Li said.

Holding the token in his hand, Jia Daoshi looked surprised: "Are you going to lead your army to attack Sifang City?"

Shen Li nodded: "That's right, this time, I must take Sifang City. Teacher, I need your help this time."

"Your Highness, aren't you asking a bit too much of me?" Jia Daoshi was taken aback.

"I trust you. Give me some advice." Shen Li sat down on the desk with a carefree attitude. "When you were my teacher before, didn't you say you knew everything? Like Sun Tzu's Art of War and the Thirty-Six Stratagems? This time, you'll be my strategist!"

"Ah Li, your tiger tally can only mobilize 150,000 troops. Isn't that a bit too few?" Yi Qianxiao asked with some concern.

Xuanhua was also very well-informed about the martial arts world, and she had already known about the arrival of Huo Jiaqianyan Army.

This was originally none of her business, but if Jia Daoshi wanted to get involved, then it would concern her.

“It is indeed a bit short, which is why I need to borrow your husband for a while. Don’t worry, I will return him to you after he’s done using him, not a single hair will be missing,” Shen Li said with a smile.

Yi Qianxiao blushed: "Ah Li, use it if you want, I don't care!"

Jia Daoshi was a seasoned veteran. After listening to Shen Li's words, he frowned and pondered for a moment: "Alright, I can help you."

"Teacher, is there a way to defeat the enemy?" Shen Li asked.

Jia Daoshi rolled his eyes: "I don't even know the situation in Sifang City, how could I possibly know how to defeat the enemy? You give me the topographical map of the area around Sifang City first, then go back and gather your troops. I'll go back and think about it."

With that, Jia Daoshi tossed the tiger tally back to Shen Li.

“It’s been prepared for a long time.” Shen Li pulled a roll of parchment from behind her back and tossed it to Jia Daoshi.

“Okay, see you tomorrow then.” Jia Daoshi nodded.

"Alright, the troops will be fully assembled in three days, then we'll set off!"

Shen Li looked determined.

The reason for seeking out Jia Daoshi was simply to be prepared for any eventuality. In fact, even without Jia Daoshi, Shen Li would still have to fight this battle!

Because the Holy Maiden Murong Nishang of Longwu Kingdom is also in Sifang City!

Murong Nishang's arrival, even though she did nothing, was tantamount to a challenge and a declaration of war against Shen Li, simply because she, as the Holy Maiden, was present!

If she doesn't fight, it's a sign of weakness!

Moreover, she already had a preliminary plan in mind regarding how to attack the city.

……

Jia Daoshi and Yi Qianxiao walked together on the way back to the manor.

"My lord, should we send men from Xuanhua to help us?" Yi Qianxiao hugged Jia Daoshi's arm, resting her head on his shoulder, looking like a little bird clinging to him.

Yi Qianxiao was by no means short, but she was still a head shorter than Jia Daoshi.

"No need, this is a matter for the imperial court, and it's best for us martial arts practitioners not to get involved," Jia Daoshi said with a smile.

"Speaking of which, Ah Li is really strong-willed. It's heartbreaking to see a girl always charging into battle," Yi Qianxiao said helplessly. "My lord, after we take Sifang City this time, why don't you marry her too? That way, we sisters can serve you together!"

Jia Daoshi: "..."

He never expected Yi Qianxiao to say that!

If you get a wife like this, what more can a husband ask for?

It must be thanks to the blessings of his ancestors that he is able to live such a good life.

"Ahem... My wife, this isn't quite right..." Jia Daoshi said seriously.

“What’s wrong with that? Isn’t that how it is in the whole world? My father even married seven wives!” Yi Qianxiao laughed. “More wives mean more offspring, more offspring mean a larger family, and a larger family can last for generations! Isn’t that right? Besides, if I had to give birth to a baby by myself, it would be very hard. I’ve heard that childbirth is quite painful.”

It has to be said that Yi Qianxiao's awareness is truly exceptional!

It's quite tall!

"But they have to agree, don't they?" Jia Daoshi was somewhat tempted.

Prince Shen Li is absolutely an exceptional person.

But no matter what, they have to agree, right?

"Haha, leave this to me."

The two quickly returned to the manor, but this time they were greeted not by Butler Sun, but by a still charming woman!

Jia Daoshi recognized this woman; she was none other than Feng Si Niang, the woman who had been assigned to him as a wife before!

"Brother! No! Mr. Jia, you're finally back?"

As soon as Feng Si Niang saw Jia Dao Shi, she stepped forward and said something.

"Is Feng Si Niang looking for me?" Jia Daoshi asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Yes, yes, there's something I need." Feng Si Niang nodded repeatedly.

"Okay, it's cold outside, let's go inside and talk."

……

The manor hall.

Feng Si Niang sat down, took a sip of water, and said directly, "Jia Daoshi, do you still want a wife? As long as you nod, I'll bring her to you tonight! It's urgent!"

"Cough cough..."

What kind of tiger-wolf talk is this?

Jia Daoshi almost choked on his own saliva!

Yi Qianxiao and Murong Jiu, who were standing next to each other, also showed strange expressions.

The last time I met Feng Si Niang was probably around the time of the Chinese New Year last year. At that time, Feng Si Niang asked me similar questions, which Jia Daoshi took as a joke.

I never expected that Feng Si Niang would actually take it seriously!

But he already has five wives, and Yi Qianxiao just encouraged him to marry Shen Li. That's enough!

Remarrying would make me too much of a playboy, and besides, it would be unfair to my wives!

But to Jia Daoshi's surprise, before he could even say anything, Murong Jiu and Yi Qianxiao got all excited!

"Fourth Sister! Who is this woman you're talking about? What's she like?"

When Feng Si Niang heard Jia Daoshi's two wives ask the question first, she was immediately a little embarrassed, but in the end she could only bite the bullet and say, "To be honest, this young lady is quite nice, otherwise, why would I, Si Niang, have come to your door? But now that I think about it, let's just forget about it..."

The official matchmaking system of the Great Jing Dynasty encouraged people to marry multiple wives.

The more wives a man marries, the higher the head tax will be, and the faster the population of Dajing will grow!

Because you've married multiple wives, you must be able to afford the taxes, and your family's financial situation must be quite good!

It is also easier for wealthy families to raise children, and the children are less likely to die young.

If you're from a poor family, then it's unavoidable!

However, if there are too many women, infighting within the household will occur.

Women, most of them get jealous, and when women get jealous, the domestic life becomes unsettled.

Moreover, many women who marry into wealthy families do not want their husbands to have multiple wives.

Because they will fall out of favor.

Now that she saw Jia Daoshi's two wives sitting right next to her, even the thick-skinned Feng Si Niang would feel embarrassed.

However, before she could finish speaking, Murong Jiu said, "Why should we let it go? The girl you mentioned is very outstanding. Does that mean our husband isn't good enough for her? That's outrageous!"

Murong Jiu gets angry, but she's cute and fierce.

"Madam is too kind. Mr. Jia is the most outstanding man in Yilan County!" Feng Si Niang said with a smile.

“In that case, I, as the first wife, approve this marriage!” Murong Jiu nodded. “First, tell me about the girl you mentioned.”
