Republic of China: My great warlord, many children, many blessings.

Moreover, Shen Hao vigorously rectified public security, arresting many local thugs and bullies.

For a time, the public security situation in Guangzhou improved significantly.

This made many ordinary people very happy, finally able to catch their breath.

In the blink of an eye, ten days have passed.

Ye Zhen, Yuan Datou's sixth concubine, along with his third daughter Yuan Shuzhen and Shen Hao's old friend, the second son Yuan Kewen, arrived in Guangzhou safely.

At this time, the entire Guangzhou port was placed under martial law.

With guards every three steps and sentries every five steps, there were three thousand soldiers completely blocking off the area near the port.

Everyone was so frightened that they dared not breathe and could only stand and watch from a distance.

'Who is this important person? The entire dock is under lockdown!'

'I don't know, the surrounding streets are all under lockdown and no one is allowed to walk on them. Damn it, are they even letting people do business? This is too domineering.'

"They have guns, so why don't you try barging in?"

"Do you think I'm stupid? If I really went in, I wouldn't be alive. I'd be beaten to death on the spot."

'Then why are you still talking nonsense?'

180. Ye Zhen and Yuan Shushu arrived.

Soon, a cruise ship slowly approached the port.

After the boat came to a stop, everyone disembarked one after another.

Standing at the bow of the ship, Yuan Kewen spotted Shen Hao at a glance and waved excitedly at him.

Also traveling with them were the third sister, Yuan Shuzhen, and the sixth concubine, Ye Zhen.

Upon seeing this, Shen Hao's lips curled into a smile.

Now I finally understand why Yuan Kewen came.

Previously, Yuan Datou's telegram stated that Yuan Shuzhen and Ye Zhen were coming, but Yuan Kewen was not mentioned in the telegram.

Now that this guy has come running over here all of a sudden, Shen Hao guesses that he's just after Ye Zhen's body.

After all, they were each other's first love and had even made a promise to each other for life.

It was just snatched away by his father, Yuan Shikai.

No matter the era, what you can't have will always stir your heart.

After disembarking from the cruise ship, Yuan Kewen gave Shen Hao a big hug.

"Shen Hao is impressive. He's now the Governor of Guangdong, a powerful figure who commands respect in the region. Who in the country dares to underestimate him now?"

Your name is famous throughout the country; you are arguably the youngest governor in the nation, and an idol to countless people.

Shen Hao laughed and said, "Not at all, my small force was no match for them; they were all wiped out."

"Alright, stop being modest. I've never heard of you losing a battle since your debut, which is already incredibly impressive."

"Haha, that's true."

Immediately afterward, Ye Zhen laughed and said, "Ah Hao, this time I've brought you a wife!"

After saying that, he gestured with his chin and looked at Yuan Shuzhen.

Sensing that Shen Hao's gaze had passed over him, the usually outspoken Yuan Shuzhen became surprisingly quiet.

Her face flushed with embarrassment, but she still mustered up the courage to look at Shen Hao with deep affection.

His eyes were full of joy and adoration.

Shen Hao said, "Sixth Madam, Kewen, Shuzhen, it's windy here, let's go home first."

Then, looking at the bewildered Yuan Shuzhen, he didn't waste any words, grabbed her wrist and left, giving her no time to think or refuse.

Since she's already agreed to be his wife, why pretend anymore?

Yuan Shuzhen was stunned for a moment, then his cheeks instantly flushed red, like a ripe apple.

My heart was pounding so hard it felt like it was going to jump out of my throat.

I was incredibly excited, as if I were enveloped in a sweet happiness.

All the anxiety and worry I felt before vanished at this moment.

Ye Zhen was also somewhat surprised to see this, not expecting Shen Hao to be so direct.

Isn't it usually best to be subtle about it?

But Shen Hao's actions made her somewhat envious.

What woman doesn't like being dragged along the street by the man she loves?

After getting on the car, Yuan Kewen wanted to sit in the back row with Ye Zhen.

However, Yuan Shuzhen and Ye Zhen simultaneously pushed him into the passenger seat.

"Let Shen Hao sit here," the two women said simultaneously.

Yuan Kewen pouted, somewhat dissatisfied. He wanted to get closer to Ye Zhen, but they didn't have much time to chat when they met on weekdays.

Having come along this time, Yuan Kewen had been looking for an opportunity to get closer to Ye Zhen.

But Ye Zhen brushed them off on the grounds that her identity made it inconvenient.

This made him very depressed.

I felt very disappointed.

The enthusiasm for traveling from Beijing to Guangzhou has also vanished.

Shen Hao sat between Ye Zhen and Yuan Shuzhen, the fragrance emanating from the two women wafting over him.

The fragrance of Ye Zhen is especially strong.

As the car started moving, the guards on both sides ran after it.

Yuan Kewen said, "Shen Hao, why are there so many guards?"

"Of course, safety is paramount. Ah Hao is now the governor of a province; his safety is of utmost importance, and we must not be careless."

"It can't be that bad, can it? Besides, this is your territory, Shen Hao. Who would dare to make a move?"

"Pah, Second Brother, you're wrong to say that. Isn't Father also afraid to come out even when he's in the capital?" Yuan Shuzhen said arrogantly.

These words left Yuan Kewen speechless for a long time.

The warlords of the Beiyang Army still had one thing in common: they wouldn't let their families be implicated.

Although many people attempted to assassinate Yuan Shikai, very few targeted his son.

Of course, these days, the saying "like father, like son" still applies to a minority of people.

Most of them are fathers who are powerful and their sons who are cowards.

Few have been able to pass it down; only the Fengtian clique in Northeast China and the Ma Clique in Northwest China meet the criteria.

Another thing is that these warlords are quite remarkable.

First, their existence was generally very short. Second, many warlords would step down after losing a war, losing their territory and military base, and then leave the military and political circles to find a place to retire.

Therefore, there are very few incidents targeting the son's family.

Traffic resumed as the vehicles moved away from the dock.

This made many people curious about who had come, with such a grand arrival, and why the governor himself had to come to greet them.

The road was bumpy and full of potholes, and the car passed a puddle.

It sent Ye Zhen and Yuan Shuzhen, who were sitting in the back row, flying.

Since there were no seat belts in those days, his body was thrown into the air, and when he fell, Ye Zhen happened to sit in his lap.

Ye Zhen was so frightened that she clung tightly to Shen Hao.

Those weapons were meant to suffocate Shen Hao.

Feeling the silky smoothness of Ye Zhen's lotus-root-like arms, Shen Hao's mind began to wander.

It's not because Ye Zhen is so beautiful, so charming, or has such a perfect figure.

Even though Shen Hao, a top-tier beauty, has had his share of affairs, he still has some self-control.

In addition, he has no shortage of women, so he generally has the self-control to resist temptation.

However, Ye Zhen is different. Not only is she fair-skinned and beautiful, but more importantly, she is Yuan Datou's sixth concubine.

In the end, she is Shen Hao's sixth mother-in-law.

Thinking of the halo of this identity, Shen Hao's holeless flute immediately saluted.

Ye Zhen, sitting on Shen Hao's lap, naturally also sensed the subtle changes in the holeless flute.

Her face flushed red, and she quickly sat down to the side.

Her heart started pounding wildly, and she looked down at her toes, not daring to look at Shen Hao.
