The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 467

Upon hearing General Zhenguo's words, Xu Tian immediately burst into laughter.

"What does the General mean? Xu Tian should thank you even more."

He then showed a hint of disdain, "Doesn't the General know? Xu Tian has already refused the offer to serve in the court several times."

He didn't say why he agreed this time in particular.

The General looked at him in disbelief. He had heard his colleagues mention this before.

At the time, I just felt that Xu Tian was being ungrateful.

He even dared to slap Li Er in the face; he was truly a daredevil.

At that time, he still thought Xu Tian was a real man.

However, now, because of his cousin's situation, he deeply hates Xu Tian.

Now, because of this series of events, he hates Xu Tian even more.

They wished Xu Tian would die immediately.

He doesn't even need to do it himself.

After all, the feud between him and Xu Tian is now out in the open.

Although Li Er believed the story, he couldn't be sure that Xu Tian would continue to pursue it.

This situation is very unfavorable to him, and he must find a way to deal with it as soon as possible.

And it must be so subtle that no one can find any clues about it.

The General Zhenguo felt a burning hatred in his heart whenever he thought about how Xu Tian had framed him.

He said directly, "I have been wronged. Don't worry! I will find evidence to prove my innocence."

"What kind of noble status do you think I, a general, have to throw excrement at me?"

The General who guarded the country was furious. Today, he had originally come to find Xu Tian and to make things unpleasant.

But unexpectedly, in the end, it was he who was unhappy.

He was unwilling, but he thought there was plenty of time in the future.

He always wanted to teach Xu Tian a lesson.

Seeing the general's angry expression, Xu Tian remained calm and said, "Xu Tian doesn't understand anything. In the future, I will need the general's guidance!"

As he said this, he clasped his hands together in a humble gesture.

The General who guarded the country found it amusing.

However, with all the people around him watching, he couldn't directly express his dissatisfaction with Xu Tian.

The General Zhenguo said directly to Xu Tian, "Lord Xu is clever and quick-witted, and currying favor with officials is probably one of your strengths. There's no need for a rough man like me."

With that, he turned and left.

However, the General who guarded the country was not at ease.

After he returned, he ordered the widespread dissemination of rumors about Xu Tian Academy.

They directly announced to the public that Xu Tian himself was responsible for the poisoning incident.

Because outsiders are unaware of the full truth.

Without evidence, Xu Tian dared not speak out easily.

After all, even Li Er has already captured the person. If Xu Tian were to say anything more, wouldn't that be saying that Li Er is blind?

Even if Xu Tian were incredibly stupid, he wouldn't do something so outrageous.

Therefore, the General Zhenguo took the initiative and publicized the matter.

This led to many children of government officials dropping out of school.

Although Xu Tian has already taken office, he still attaches great importance to the affairs of the academy.

After the news spread widely, there were very few students left in the college.
