441: The General is a Thief

The General is a Thief

The two guards had thought that their general had gone out to rest. So when they heard that their general had been set up, it was shocking.1

It was normal for the two guards to have doubts. Jiang Zhennan said, "little 38 was caught by me stealing meat in the kitchen. Little 42, you have a crush on a girl and don't dare to confess, so you use wine to boost your courage. In the end, you got drunk and..." Jiang Zhennan did not finish his sentence. Little 42 confessed to Jiang Zhennan instead.

"Okay. Stop." The two of them looked at each other and immediately confirmed that the person in front of them was their general.

Only their general would know such embarrassing details. "General, we believe you."

However, seeing the general return to his own residence without a mask and dressed like a thief, they were suspicious.

No. 38 pointed at his black clothes and asked in confusion, "general, why aren't you wearing a mask? And why are you dressed like this?"

Jiang Zhennan said sternly, "regardless of whether I'm wearing a mask or not, I'm still your general. Listen well.

"I was poisoned. If I didn't meet a doctor with unparalleled medical skills, I might have died from the poison.

"Not only did that person cure the poison in my body, but they also removed the many years of internal injuries and the terrifying scar on my face.

"However, I can't come home now. There are many traps waiting for me to fall into. Even if I return to the residence, the enemies have many crimes to pin on me.

"So, I'm waiting for an opportunity to strike. Get it?"

Little 38 and little 42's pupils contracted when they heard that. They clenched their fists tightly and asked with fear and anger on their faces, "who is it?"

Who was the one who poisoned the general? How selfish! They had actually secretly harmed the protector of the people of Long yan Kingdom for their own selfish reasons.

Jiang Zhennan said sternly, "it doesn't matter who it is. The most important thing is that you must not tell anyone about your meeting with me tonight. Not even the butler. In addition, you must send a messenger pigeon to me on the situation in the capital, and you can't let anyone find out, understand?" His personal guards were all literate, so he didn't have to worry about them not knowing how to write.

Hearing that they couldn't tell the Butler, the two of them were surprised and suspicious. They looked at each other and asked carefully, "general, you said that we couldn't tell the Butler about this. Why is that?" In the past, the general had trusted the Butler the most.

Jiang Zhennan wouldn't tell them the reason, in case they would be angry and give themselves away.

"Don't ask why," he said sternly. "You just have to remember that you can't reveal my information to anyone, including the Butler!"

The two of them looked at each other again with serious expressions. Then, they quickly saluted and said in a firm and quiet voice, "yes, general!"

Jiang Zhennan nodded in satisfaction and said, "alright! I will remember this."

Little 38 and little 42 were overjoyed. They saluted Jiang Zhennan again and said gratefully, "thank you, general!"

Jiang Zhennan nodded, took out the key to open the door, and then entered the study.

After a while, Jiang Zhennan came out and nodded at them."You've done well. In the future, remember this as well, don't let anyone in, including the Butler, understand?"

"Yes, general!" The two of them did not know what was going on, but they had a vague idea that the Butler might be problematic. For the sake of the general, they would never allow the Butler or anyone else to enter the study.

After Jiang Zhennan looked at the study, he put on his black veil again, got up, and leaped onto the roof. Then, he flew away quickly like an eagle.

"General's Qinggong is really good!"

"That's right. If only my Qinggong was one-tenth as good as general's. "

"I don't think I'll be able to reach even one-tenth of the general in my life."

However, other than the two guards, no one else knew that the master of this mansion had returned and in such a sneaky way.
