The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1279

Xu Tian composed himself and looked at his trusted confidant again.

"Have you found out who kidnapped Shen Qing's wife?" Xu Tian felt it was imperative to resolve this matter now.

If this isn't resolved soon, the rumors will only escalate.

He has absolutely no evidence and no way to explain himself. Even if he did try to explain, those people would never believe him.

The confidant immediately became somewhat deflated: "I have investigated for a long time, but have not found anything."

When he said this, his confidants were somewhat afraid to look at Xu Tian.

Xu Tian understood what his confidant was thinking, and simply smiled slightly, showing his understanding. If it were really that easy to find, Shen Qing wouldn't have gone to such lengths.

He believed that Shen Qing was afraid of something.

"You can continue your investigation. If you find anything, remember to come back and let me know." Xu Tian didn't make things difficult for his confidant.

Not long after his confidant left, one of his men came in, looking very nervous.

"What is it?" Xu Tian had now become completely calm.

He guessed it might be bad things said about him.

He knelt down on the ground, and his subordinate hurriedly replied to Xu Tian, ​​"My lord, Cheng Wubin and his men have successfully infiltrated and sent me to report to you immediately."

Nodding, Xu Tian was now extremely satisfied with Cheng Wubin.

It had only been a day, and he hadn't expected Cheng Wubin to act so quickly.

"Are there rumors about me everywhere now?" With a better mood, Xu Tian felt he could face the bad news next.

His subordinates were afraid of angering Xu Tian, ​​so they didn't dare to say those words out loud.

Xu Tian could easily understand what his subordinates were thinking, but he was somewhat helpless. "Just say what you want to say. I won't eat you or hurt you, so don't worry."

Was he really that scared? Xu Tian suddenly felt a little confused.

His attitude towards them has always been quite good.

"My lord, the situation inside the house is getting increasingly serious." After Xu Tian's persistent questioning, his subordinate finally answered.

Completely devoid of life, Xu Tian quickly dismissed his men from the study.

Looking away, Xu Tian didn't intend to continue his busy work. He felt he should calm down a bit and not keep getting agitated.

"King Yinglan probably thinks I'm completely helpless now." With a sigh, Xu Tian's mind instantly conjured up the image of King Yinglan.

Actually, all we need to do is let Cheng Wubin explain to the ministers in person.

But if Cheng Wubin appears, the situation may become even more dire, as he feels that the blame for everything being placed on him.

"You were the one who ordered the killing of Shen Qing, but you've turned around and accused me. I've really seen something new." Xu Tian's expression kept changing.

He knew that the King of England was probably still feeling smug.

Did he think it was really over? Xu Tian just found it somewhat amusing.

Time passes slowly.

For the past few days, Xu Tian has been staying in the Marquis's mansion and has no desire to go out.

The Cuju (ancient Chinese football) match is about to begin, and he needs to prepare well.
