Chapter 505: Chapter 167 Chen Jie: What, Huang Wan’er is pregnant? (Please subscribe)

”If women were not restricted and could remarry upon their husband’s death, then which warrior of White Tiger Hall would be willing to sacrifice themselves for it? ’I die, and my wife remarries,’ that is absolutely unacceptable.

So, Chen Jie also became an accomplice in harming women.

But there was no choice, those with great aspirations must not sweat the small stuff, Chen Jie had to curb this.

He relied on men to conquer the world, not women, thus necessary sacrifices were required.

It might be cold-blooded, it might be heartless, but as a ruler, one must have their means.

Furthermore, besides this, any martyr who entered the Heroic Spirit Hall would have their children enrolled in White Tiger Academy, which provided for their food, clothing, lodging, and transport.

After completing their studies, the standouts, Chen Jie would choose ten each year to make them his adoptive sons.

Yes, Chen Jie had also learned from his adoptive father to take adoptive sons.

This was a grand plan, it is known that Chen Jie’s adoptive sons were not ordinary; they carried a significant status in White Tiger Hall.

Remember that Chen Jie himself ascended as an adoptive son, thereby inheriting the White Tiger Hall.

Thus, in terms of legal succession, the adoptive sons were entitled to inherit Chen Jie’s power, but this was only a possibility if Chen Jie had his own son, the future rights would definitely be his.

However, these adoptive sons also would have a bright future ahead of them.

This was far closer than so-called Emperor’s Disciples.

Moreover, Chen Jie’s adoption of sons involved multiple considerations; firstly, his adoptive sons were all top students from the academy, the future talents, adopting such individuals meant capturing their hearts, allowing for Chen Jie to have an unending source of talent.

They would also feel a stronger sense of belonging and work diligently for Chen Jie.

Secondly, it was meant as a demonstration to the living brothers of White Tiger.

See well, if you die fighting for the White Tiger Hall, then your parents will be sustained by White Tiger Hall with grains, meats, and vegetables; their life will be much better than most of the living members’ parents, you’ve lost a son but won’t live miserably — that was Chen Jie’s thought.

Next, it involved the wives; they were not allowed to remarry but would keep their widowhood, and the conditions of widowhood were very generous.

The children finally could enter the academy to study and secure a prominent position upon graduation under the legitimate banner of White Tiger Hall, how could they be compared to other newly recruited disciples?

Moreover, outstanding individuals could even be adopted by the Hall Master.

It was a surge to the skies, becoming an adoptive son to the Hall Master signified a bright future, honoring their family!

With such, what should the warriors fear about sacrifices, particularly in an era where parents did not have just one child, there were siblings.

When the time comes, parents still had siblings to care for, in the village, just mentioning, ’My son is a heroic spirit of the White Tiger Hall,’ then who in the village wouldn’t give a thumbs up?

Look, while the villagers eat husks and vegetables, they eat white rice and have meat; when compared, what more is to be said?

A person becomes a disciple of White Tiger Hall, the whole family is honored!

This was a major plan set by Chen Jie.

There is also the Heroic Spirit Hall, which was a more revered presence than the main hall where Chen Jie worked, people of this era did pay much attention to posthumous treatment—having one’s tablet enter the Heroic Spirit Hall was the highest honor.

In the future, as long as the White Tiger Hall continues to exist, the Heroic Spirit Hall would always have worshippers, and Chen Jie also planned to start a course, initiating a ”study of heroes” event for the disciples of the White Tiger Academy, and release a Heroic Spirit Album, recording the names and deeds of these individuals.

Periodically allowing these students to learn the deeds of their predecessors.

These were some of the preliminary plans Chen Jie had drawn up, and White Tiger Hall was in the process of arranging these matters.

The heroic spirits would be buried fourteen days later, as per the old customs of Mianshui, where those who died violent deaths were to have their coffins held longer, allowing their souls to rest.

Chen Jie discussed with a few people about the disposition of the heroic spirits.

Everyone was in low spirits, but just then, outside, there was a quick rush of footsteps, followed by a logistics department junior holding a bamboo tube, saying, ”Manager, urgent and top secret.”

Si Xi nodded, took the bamboo tube, checked the wax seal, intact, it should not have been tampered with, Si Xi said, ”You can go now.”

Then Si Xi slowly unscrewed the bamboo tube, engraved with the character ’Geng.’

Si Xi paused, it was from Lord Nan Batian’s house, these secret spies were divided according to characters from ’A, B, C, D’ and downwards, the character ’Geng’ corresponded to Lord Nan Batian’s mansion.

However, this ’Geng’ character rarely appeared, as corresponding to Lord Nan Batian there was also the ’A’ character, which corresponded to the spies in the Fishing Guild Headquarters, while ’Geng’, very secretive.

Their assignments were generally overseen by only the Hall Master himself.

Thinking of this, Si Xi hurriedly rushed in.

”Hall Master, urgent and top secret.”

Chen Jie slightly frowned, ”Read, it’s just us here, no matter.”

Si Xi hearing this looked at Chen Jie, ”Hall Master, it’s from the ’Geng’ character spy.”

Geng!

Chen Jie’s expression changed, ’Geng’ character spy corresponded to Huang Wan’er, could it be that something happened to her.

Thinking thus, he glanced around the table, Su Yunjin said, ”Husband, you handle your matters first, I am here.”

Chen Jie heard this and fell silent, there were some things he could no longer conceal, especially from Su Yunjin.

Thinking thus, Chen Jie said, ”No need, Xiao Hu, make the guards stand back further.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Hu immediately stood up to make the guards move further away, and when everyone seated could be trusted, Chen Jie said, ”It’s about Huang Wan’er.”
