Chapter 440: The General is a Thief

Translator: Lonelytree 

The two guards’ acupuncture points had been sealed by Jiang Zhennan, so only their eyes could move. Their eyes were filled with fear. However, when they heard the other party say that he was their general Jiang Zhennan, other than shock, there was more disbelief in their eyes.

They remembered clearly that their general had been wearing a silver mask for more than ten years. It was said that he had been disfigured because of a knife wound on his face. In order not to scare people, he had to wear a mask.

But this person, even if his figure and voice were very similar to the general’s, his face didn’t have any knife wounds at all. He was very handsome and didn’t look scary at all. Was he really their general?

However, to be honest, they had never seen the general’s face before, so they couldn’t be sure if the general’s face was really injured and had a scar. Or was it because the general was too handsome, so he put on the mask to intimidate others?

They had to ask the person in front of them whether he was the general or not.

After Jiang Zhennan had opened their acupuncture points, the two of them did not scream. They just asked in a low voice, as Jiang Zhennan had requested.

After all, if this person was really the general, there must be a hidden reason for his sudden appearance. If they suddenly shouted that there was a thief or a.s.sa.s.sin, it might be very disadvantageous to the general.

On the other hand, if the person in front of them wasn’t the general but someone else in disguise, then they only needed to shout, and he would be surrounded in an instant, unable to escape.

Besides, if this person weren’t the general, killing them would be as easy as turning one’s hand over. Why would he waste his breath on them?

Although they had guessed that the man in black who had suddenly appeared was most likely their general, they still needed to confirm it.

The two of them looked calm and in disbelief as they asked, “You know our names, but that doesn’t prove that you’re our general. So, how are you going to prove it? You should know that our general has always been open and not dressed like a thief.”

As expected of a subordinate trained by Jiang Zhennan, he had a certain level of courage.

These two guards were indeed personally trained by Jiang Zhennan.

The study was the most important place for Jiang Zhennan. Many secret doc.u.ments could be hidden in the study. Therefore, someone must guard the study 24 hours a day.

Jiang Zhennan was not at ease using ordinary guards, so he picked four guards from the team he had trained. Two of them would work in shifts and be on duty all day long.

Because of the housekeeper’s sudden betrayal, Jiang Zhennan was poisoned, and his situation was extremely dangerous. He didn’t have time to deal with the matters in the general’s mansion. At the same time, in order not to alert the enemy, Jiang Zhennan didn’t bring a guard from the mansion. He only went to Guo’s mansion secretly and found Guo Bing. Then, he planned to go to the valley of medicine Masters to find the divine Doctor Wu Yazi.

Originally, it was only the two of them who went, but when they arrived outside the city, they did not expect to be a.s.sa.s.sinated. They were alone and weak. Guo Bing immediately sent a signal and summoned more than fifty of Jiang Zhennan’s personal guards.

The butler at the general’s residence had colluded with the Marquis to harm Jiang Zhennan. They were certain that Jiang Zhennan could not find anyone to cure him because this poison could be cured.

Therefore, after Jiang Zhennan quickly left the general’s residence, the butler calmly informed the people in the Marquis’ residence. Then, he calmly waited for the news in the general’s residence.

Once the news of Jiang Zhennan’s death came, the people from the Marquis’s Court promised to give him 30000 taels of silver in addition to giving him the right to manage the general’s residence.

However, before the news of Jiang Zhennan’s death came out, the butler had to find an excuse to explain Jiang Zhennan’s disappearance. Otherwise, it would be too suspicious.

Therefore, whether it was the guards at the general’s residence or the public in the capital, no one knew that something bad had happened to Jiang Zhennan.
