The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 496

Xu Tian chuckled, "In the General Zhenguo's mansion, all the servants know these people, but you, General, don't. Isn't that a bit unreasonable?"

Upon hearing Xu Tian's words, the General of the State looked at his guards.

Then he said, "Lord Xu, are you a mind reader? Do you think you know who I am better than I do?"

Ultimately, he simply wouldn't admit it; he wanted to see what Xu Tian would do to him.

Moreover, he sneered, "You brought these people here and asked me if I know them? You even said you know everyone in my household. What exactly do you mean by this?"

"How did these people you captured offend you? Is it the same person as last time? But Xu Tian, ​​let me tell you, I have nothing to hide!"

"No matter what these people do to you, I've said it before, if I don't know them, I don't know them."

No matter what Xu Tian said, he stubbornly refused to admit it and distanced himself from all the relationships.

Xu Tian sneered. This general truly lived up to his name! He had become shameless to the extreme.

Then, Xu Tian directly lifted the sleeves of these people's clothes.

Each of them had a tattoo on their shoulder, and this tattoo was common to all the guards in the General Zhenguo's Mansion.

Moreover, people with tattoos roam freely in his general's mansion.

They hold extremely high status.

However, at this point, they were all just pawns in the hands of the General Who Protects the Nation.

After Xu Tian lifted the clothes of these people, revealing their tattoos...

The general was indeed speechless.

However, he still refused to admit that he had done it himself.

After all, it's not honorable to talk about something like this.

Now that Xu Tian knew the identities of these people, he simply shifted all the blame onto them.

He stated bluntly, "These are all things they decided to do themselves, what does it have to do with me? You've brought these people here to confront me, do you think you can threaten me like that?"

He refused to believe it; he refused to admit it. What could Xu Tian do to him?

He would rather die than admit it.

Xu Tian's lips twitched. This General Zhenguo was truly shameless, far exceeding his expectations.

Even now that things have come to this point, he still refuses to admit his crimes.

He even went so far as to pin all these crimes on his subordinates.

He really has reached the limit of shamelessness.

However, such people are not necessarily difficult to deal with.

Xu Tian knew that these people were all capable assistants in the military.

They were all trusted confidants of the General Who Protects the Nation; he couldn't just send them all to the executioner's block so easily.

Hearing the General of the State's sophistry, Xu Tian directly said to the county magistrate behind him, "Since these people acted on their own, Magistrate, execute them on my behalf and display their heads to the public!"

The General of the State was startled and looked at Xu Tian.

He never expected that Xu Tian would have these people killed simply for theft.

This is at most a crime punishable by imprisonment!

"Didn't Lord Xu say it was just theft? How could it be so serious as to warrant beheading?"

The General who guarded the country was no longer calm.

Although he could pin all the blame on these individuals.

But he couldn't just stand by and watch these people go to their deaths.

I didn't kill Boren, but Boren died because of me.

They should die a worthy death, but right now, these people can only be considered to have died in vain!
