C2441 Trivia
Jiang Ting, who was enjoying a night of singing and dancing in the main hall, knocked on the table quietly as his thoughts slowly spread... He had already been hesitating for a year since he took over Cang Ping Prefecture's Royal Prison. Judging by the time, there would be people coming from the capital as well.
He had placed four foreign objects in the Absolute Monarch Sanctuary branch in Yushui County. Due to the large amount of foreign objects, the headquarters of the Capital's Royal Prison had already sent someone to take over. If there were no accidents, they should arrive at the stronghold in less than half a month.
It was precisely because of this that he'd gone back to the Jiang manor to erase some unworthy flaws and avoid creating unnecessary trouble.
Now, most of the flaws had been wiped clean, leaving only a single flaw. A flaw that could not be considered a flaw.
The Jiang manor's strength was too low.
Apart from himself, the strongest ones were Zhong Ming and a few Second God guards. They couldn't even compare to some of the families in the county city.
"Master, you're looking for me?" Zhong Ming led a few guards into the main hall.
Jiang Ting suppressed his thoughts and looked at the guards. "Zhong Ming, I will give you some pointers for the next few days."
"Thank you, old master." Zhong Ming and the guards were immediately overjoyed. They never thought that Jiang Ting would be ready to give them pointers the moment they returned.
As if he knew what they were thinking, a calm look appeared in Jiang Ting's eyes. "You should all know the reason behind what happened last night. In the end, it's all because of the position of the Imperial Censor now, and not because of the strength of my Jiang manor."
Zhong Ming and the others lowered their heads in shame.
Jiang Ting shook his head again: "Originally, I was prepared to recruit other strong warriors, but after some thought, if I recruit again, even if I can recruit a lot of strong warriors, it would be different compared to when you guys followed me from the start. And you might even sneak into the spies of other forces."
"Old master, thank you for your trust." A few guards knelt down.
"Get up."
At the end of his words, Jiang Ting stood up and said, "Follow me to the martial arts practice field and work hard. Now that I'm in charge of the Stronghold of Pingping Prison, no one from my Jiang manor is in charge. It would be too embarrassing if word of this got out … If someone's strength is sufficient, I don't mind bringing him into Absolute Monarch Sanctuary. You should also be clear about what kind of place Absolute Monarch Sanctuary is.
Looking at Jiang Ting's back, Zhong Ming and the other guards glanced at each other with a look of surprise in their eyes … Of course they knew what kind of place Absolute Monarch Sanctuary was!
Moreover, as the world became more and more chaotic, the status of Absolute Monarch Sanctuary became higher and higher!
Zhong Ming knew that, in addition to his status as a commander in charge of the Jiang manor, he wasn't strong enough. If he went to the Wen manor and the other three families, not many people would even look at him.
However, if he could enter Absolute Monarch Sanctuary, his position might not even be as high as Wen An and the other Patriarchs of the three families, but if he could enter Absolute Monarch Sanctuary, even the Patriarchs of the three families would have to be courteous to him!
… ….
Very quickly, ten days passed.
Ten days wasn't long, but under Jiang Ting's personal guidance, Zhong Ming's strength had already reached the level of a third god, and he was the only guard that had reached the strength of a third god.
Although the other second rank Deities weren't able to break through, nearly twenty guards were able to make a breakthrough and reach the power of a second rank Deities.
They were still the same people, but the difference in their strength was like the difference between heaven and earth.
Although they still could not compare to the three families of the House of the Marquis, they were not far off.
Another day of pointers ended.
Martial Arts Practice Field.
Jiang Ting looked at the fanatical guards and turned around indifferently: "Ten days of guidance is enough for you. Cultivate and consolidate your cultivation. Try your best to improve further."
After Jiang Ting had left, one of the guards said, "Master's strength is extremely terrifying now, just a simple instruction is enough to enlighten me."
"Old master is now an Imperial Imperial Enforcer of Absolute Monarch Sanctuary, so his strength is naturally out of the ordinary."
Pausing for a moment, Zhong Ming spoke with a smile: "Consolidating your mind, even though old master is an Imperial Imperial Enforcer of Absolute Monarch Sanctuary, the people under his command are not his trusted aides. Only us, we have always been by his side since the Jiang Mansion, we are his trusted aides, in the future, if we get his help, it won't be difficult for us to join Supreme Ocean Palace, but don't let him down."
Maybe it was sincere, or maybe it was just an act. No one knew.
… ….
The Jiang manor was located close to the depths of the city, in a room that wasn't that big.
Old Jiang held a book and asked, "What's the next sentence of the towering Xue Xin heading south?"
In front of him was a child who did not seem to be more than ten years old.
The child lowered his head, pondering for a long time. Finally, a resentful look appeared on his face. "I forgot."
"Didn't you just study yesterday? How did you forget!" A hint of anger appeared on Old Jiang's face.
"Cough cough …" A cough sounded.
Old Jiang turned his head and saw Jiang Ting at the door.
Then, the old man hurriedly bowed, "My lord."
The toddler imitated Jiang Tou and bowed, "Master."
However, compared to the old man's respectful and reserved attitude, the child's eyes were not reserved. Instead, they were filled with curiosity and yearning.
Jiang Ting smiled: "This is..."
He remembered that when he had asked the old man to be his housekeeper, he had no sons or anything of the sort. At that time, the old man would only settle accounts, but he didn't seem to have any knowledge, did he?
"Master, this is Thirteen and Spring Flower's son."
After saying that, Jiang Tou revealed a hint of gratitude, "It was all thanks to old master's kindness that Little Thirteen didn't end up on the streets …"
Jiang Ting suddenly remembered that when a foreign object had appeared in the Jiang manor, Zhao San had been waiting for an opportunity to commit murder and their son had been brought into the Jiang manor … As for that child, Jiang Ting was not interested. It was not worth for him to care about such trivial matters.
Old Jiang looked at the child and said, "You may leave first."
"This little one will take his leave." The child scholar, Jiang Tou, saluted before leaving.
Only then did Old Jiang approach. "Master, do you have any instructions?"
According to his understanding, if there was nothing else, Jiang Ting wouldn't have come here …
"I will be leaving in a few days."
Pausing for a moment, Jiang Ting slowly spoke: "This year, the Jiang manor has developed quite well in your hands. After I leave, it will be well maintained."
"Old master, rest assured." Old Jiang hurriedly nodded his head in agreement.
Jiang Ting smiled and left. "Once a person's strength is high, they will be wild …" If the guards of the mansion have other thoughts after I leave and you are unable to resolve them, you can go to the yamen to look for Ma Huan and have her send me a letter. At that time, I will come back and take care of it. "
"I understand." Old Jiang revealed some information.
He was an experienced person, how could he not understand that Jiang Ting trusted him so much that he could monitor Zhong Ming and the others to avoid any unwanted thoughts.
What he didn't know was that Jiang Ting had only done it casually. This Jiang manor was his nominal home after all. If anything happened to it, it wouldn't be good.
… ….
Another five days later.0
Yushui County, Huangji Prison, underground palace. Jiang Ting had already returned to this place.
