609 The General’s Residence
“The Imperial edict has arrived!”
When they heard a soft and shrill voice outside the general’s residence, all the guards looked at each other, their eyes filled with unknown doubt and worry.
“What should we do? The great general hasn’t been in the manor recently, so he can’t receive the Imperial edict now.” Little Nine said worriedly.
Little thirty-eight and little forty-two looked at each other when they saw their companions ‘anxious expressions. They wanted to say something but stopped. However, when they saw their leader rushing over, they secretly heaved a sigh of relief.!!
It was good that the leader was back.
When little Nine and the rest saw their leader rushing over, they immediately went up and said worriedly, ” boss, the Imperial edict is about to reach the general’s residence, but the general is not in residence. What should we do? ”
The leader, Little One, raised his hand and looked at his companions. Although his face was also filled with anxiety and worry, he comforted his companions and said, ” don’t worry! The general was on his way back to the manor. The problem now is that we have to think of a way to delay eunuch Liu, who is delivering the decree so that he won’t enter the residence so quickly. The general will be back soon!”
“Boss, is what you said true?” The eyes of little Nine and the others immediately lit up. “is the general really on his way back to the manor? ”
“That’s right!” little one nodded.
After that, he instructed little Nine, ” little Nine, you’re usually the smartest. Bring two or three brothers to the outside of the residence and intercept eunuch Liu who is delivering the Imperial edict. Stall for as long as you can, understand? ”
“Yes!” little Nine replied seriously. Then, he turned around and called his two brothers, and rushed out of the mansion.
“Little 38 and little 42, go and delay the Butler and delay the time when he meets eunuch Liu. Don’t let him cause any trouble for the general!”
“yes, boss!” Little 38 and little 42 replied immediately.
If little 38 and little 42 hadn’t reported to him the real reason why the general wasn’t in the mansion, perhaps they would still think that the head butler was a loyal man in the defender General’s mansion.
However, who would have thought that the Butler, who they all thought was loyal and devoted, was the real culprit who caused the general not to return? He had betrayed the general a long time ago.
Hmph, in any case, the great general had sent a letter to tell them to let the butler be free and unfettered for a period of time. When he returned, his good days would be over.
Therefore, even though the guards knew the truth, they didn’t touch a single hair on the Butler.
After the arrangements were made, Little one looked at his remaining companions and said, ” let’s go. We’ll take the great general’s armor and go to the back door to receive the general!”
“Yes!” Then, under the leadership of the leader, the group of people walked towards the back door with silver armor.
When the Butler, Jiang Tianping, heard the arrival of the Imperial edict, he was also as anxious as ants on a hot pan.
“What do we do? What to do? Why would His Majesty suddenly issue an imperial edict to the general’s residence?” Jiang Tianping said doubtfully, ” if the great general doesn’t appear, then the entire General’s residence will be charged with disrespecting the Emperor. At that time, no one will be in a good position!”
The first to bear the brunt of this was him, the Butler of the defender general’s residence. That was why he was so anxious. Otherwise, he would not be so worried.
When the Jiang siblings heard the Imperial edict and arrived at the general’s residence, they immediately went to find the Butler.
Seeing Jiang Tianping’s anxiousness, Jiang Zhenye patted his palm with his folding fan and comforted Jiang Tianping, ” Butler, don’t worry. I’m here today to give you some ideas. In a while, you can just tell eunuch Liu that your Lord has gone to court a beauty. With the emperor’s trust in Jiang Zhennan, I believe that he would be very happy to hear this kind of news, wouldn’t he?”
Jiang Zhennan himself didn’t care about his marriage, but the Emperor had always kept it in his heart.
The Emperor had intended to arrange a marriage for Jiang Zhennan several times, but unfortunately, as soon as the woman heard that she was going to marry Jiang Zhennan, she immediately sought death at home and refused to marry him. Jiang Zhennan had also turned down the offer several times and said that he would not marry anyone for the rest of his life and would only protect the country.
However, Jiang Zhennan needed to get married.
A man needed a wife to take care of the insides of the general’s residence.
