"Could there be some unknown origin to the Zhao family?"
"I don't know."
"From the way this official acts, his attitude changed after he looked at a register."
"Could it be that the Zhao family's boy has had some great fortune? Became a high-ranking official?"
"That's impossible. The Zhao lad has been enlisted for less than a year. At most, he'd be a Shizhang. Yet, the official before us is a Commander of Five Hundred, with five Centurions under him."
"Indeed."
"A Commander of Five Hundred... that's a big official."
"But why is he being so respectful to the Zhao family's girl?"
Witnessing Chen Fen's behavior, the surrounding villagers couldn't help but whisper among themselves, utterly surprised and confused. For them, the curiosity they felt was just as strong as their astonishment.
