The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 488

Just then, the butler's voice came from outside.

"My lord, it's time for your meal."

Upon hearing the voice, the man's eyes lit up for a moment, but then dimmed again.

He was so hungry that his stomach was practically sticking to his back, and he would swallow hard whenever he smelled the aroma of food.

However, he knew that the adult wouldn't give him any food right now.

Xu Tian glanced at the man on the ground, then said to Song Ren, "Help him out."

Songren nodded in agreement.

Inside the dining room, a table was laden with delicious dishes.

The man was helped in by Song Ren. When he saw a table full of delicious food, he kept swallowing.

He had been starving for a day and a night. Let alone seeing so much delicious food, he would have wolfed down a bowl of rice if you put it on him.

Xu Tianbin didn't sit down at the table. Instead, he looked at the man and said, "If you tell me who that person is, all the food on this table is yours."

The man looked at the table full of delicious food and licked his lips.

If his hand hadn't been held, he probably would have already collapsed onto the table.

There was so much delicious food, but he would have been tempted even under normal circumstances, let alone after being hungry for a day and a night.

"Okay, I'll talk, I'll talk."

He shouted it out almost in tears.

"The theft in your mansion was actually committed by the General Zhenguo, but I was unaware of his motives. I was merely following orders. Please forgive me, sir."

Upon learning the truth, Xu Tian was furious.

He never expected the general to be so despicable!

Not only did they use his treasure to frame him last time, but now they've stolen all his possessions.

It seems he thought he wouldn't be exposed or have to deal with it, which is why he acted so recklessly.

It's gotten into the habit of slapping the table with one hand.

"He's completely out of control! What is he planning to do? Does he really think I'm easy to bully?"

This time, he was not going to tolerate this general.

Because what he did was really too much.

He absolutely cannot let him off easily.

Just as he was speaking, the man started eating frantically.

However, since these things were prepared for him, Xu Tian did not stop them.

He directly ordered Songren, "After he finishes eating, send him out."

Song Ren nodded and accepted the order.

Xu Tian walked straight out of the courtyard, got into the carriage, and sat inside.

Fifteen minutes later, Songren led his men out.

"grown ups!"

"Go to the General's Mansion."

This time, he was determined to show the General Zhenguo what he was capable of, and he planned to take the man directly to the General's mansion for a confrontation.

The general believed that his power was absolute and he could not tolerate this.

He immediately ordered the man to be taken to the General's Mansion.

The man was stunned for a moment when he heard that he was going to the general's mansion.

But now, he's like sand in someone else's hand, tightened or loosened at will.

Their chances of meeting each other are not even considered fate.

Xu Tian led his men directly into the General's Mansion.

He refused to believe that, faced with the evidence, he could still deny it.

If he doesn't admit it, I'll just make a big fuss about it.

We'll see who loses face then.

Would the general disregard his own reputation?

He didn't believe it.

The carriage stopped outside the general's mansion.

However, the gates of the general's mansion were tightly closed, and there wasn't even a single guard.

Xu Tian frowned and immediately ordered the guards beside him to knock on the door.
