The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1064

He had just entered the study when Songren opened the door and came in.

Songren was a bodyguard who had served him for many years, and he still followed the rules.

Xu Tian never expected that this guy would forget even the most basic manners today.

They entered the study without knocking.

"What happened?"

He only acts this way when something very urgent happens.

Song Ren frowned and told him what he had heard.

"Your Highness, the General Who Protects the Nation is in trouble!"

Upon hearing about the incident involving the General Zhenguo, Xu Tian's expression hardened.

He then stood up from the chair.

He quickly walked around the desk and went outside.

They quickly arrived at the general's mansion.

Outside the general's mansion, the Ministry of Justice personnel had already gathered.

Many people even pointed and commented on the gate of the government office.

"I never expected that a great general would be like this."

"It's like knowing someone's face but not their heart."

"What faith could these people have? They just want to exploit people's blood and sweat."

"They're complete beasts; they'll do anything for money."

Hearing these doubts, Xu Tian immediately felt uncomfortable.

When the General Zhenguo saw Xu Tian arrive, he was overjoyed.

But then his expression darkened.

"General, what exactly happened?"

Xu Tian was puzzled when he saw the room full of soldiers from the Ministry of Justice.

The matter concerning Li Yuan has only just come to an end.

Sometimes, even the General Who Guards the Nation gets into trouble.

Moreover, Xu Tian still didn't know what was going on.

When the General Zhenguo saw Xu Tian arrive, he immediately poured out his heart to him.

“Your Highness, you know me best. No matter what I do, I would never be a traitor.”

"Even at the gates of King's Landing, I would rather die by the enemy's sword than become a traitor."

The General Who Protects the Nation stood there with unwavering resolve.

His eyes were resolute.

Xu Tian said directly to the General Who Protects the Nation:

"I need to know everything in order to exonerate you."

Upon hearing Xu Tian's words, General Zhenguo immediately recounted the entire incident.

This was something Xu Tian hadn't expected.

All the evidence is right in front of us.

He couldn't imagine where the person who obtained this evidence came from.

There was absolutely no flaw to be found.

"The Ministry of Justice has produced irrefutable evidence that I communicated with the king of an enemy country. I have never written such a letter. How could that letter possibly have been written by my own hand?"

Xu Tian believed that General Zhenguo was not that kind of person.

In any case, someone must have framed me in this matter.

However, it is still uncertain who exactly wants to frame General Zhenguo.

But at that very moment, the Ministry of Justice had already issued the final ultimatum to those below.

"General Zhenguo, are you trying to put on airs because of your merits? Or are you planning a rebellion?"

The officials from the Ministry of Justice spoke recklessly and arrogantly.

His tone was full of sarcasm, showing no regard for the general.

Snapped!

A crisp sound rang out, and everyone was stunned.

The people from the Ministry of Justice showed disbelief.

His eyes were fixed on the person in front of him.

"you......"

He had barely uttered that word when he was slapped across the face by the person in front of him.
