The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 887

The old man smiled somewhat awkwardly, "You don't need to be like this! After all, this isn't your business."

Just then, someone recognized Xu Tian.

"Your Highness, are you alright? Have you come out yet?"

Upon hearing this person's words, everyone stood up.

They all looked at Xu Tian.

Xu Tian nodded with a smile.

Thank you all for your concern.

Instantly, the people began to cheer and jump for joy.

After leaving the inn, Xu Tian went straight back to his residence.

Because all the people used to frame him were drawn from his own household.

He suspected there was a traitor in his family.

Order Songren to investigate this matter.

Songren returned from outside quickly, carrying a large stack of files.

"Your Highness, look."

"Because this recruitment drive brought in people who were unfamiliar with the area. There were also many people who were sent in by other government offices."

Upon hearing Song Ren's words, Xu Tian then glanced at the case file.

Among them, he discovered that many of the servants in the mansion had dubious backgrounds.

Xu Tian believed that these people were very likely spies planted by those who had a grudge against him.

The conflict between him and the tenth prince has escalated significantly.

If that happens, the people inside might pull a fast one.

He is very likely to face utter ruin.

Although he had already died once, he didn't want to die a second time.

So he immediately ordered Songren to summon the steward.

"Get everyone on this list out."

The steward obeyed and did as instructed.

Then he went out and summoned all the maids and servants of unknown origin together.

Then he announced to them, "As you all know, a lot of things have happened and a lot of troubles have arisen in the Prince's mansion recently."

When the butler said this, they didn't understand what he meant.

"Steward, rest assured, we will stand with the Prince's Mansion through thick and thin."

The steward looked at these seemingly loyal servants.

I still feel a deep sense of regret.

However, Xu Tianxia asked him to handle this matter, and he seemed to be in a dilemma.

"I've come here to tell you something."

Seeing the butler's serious expression.

Everyone became serious.

"Uncle Butler, what's the matter?"

The butler sighed softly.

In the end, he still revealed the order issued by Xu Tianxia.

The group heard Xu Tian telling them to leave.

Several maids, their faces streaked with tears, knelt on the ground, pleading with the steward.

"Uncle Steward, please plead with the Prince on our behalf! My whole family depends on my meager salary. If the Prince kicks me out, what will become of my family?"

The housekeeper also seemed quite helpless.

He led everyone into Xu Tian's courtyard.

Everyone knelt before Xu Tian, ​​begging him not to send them away.

The butler, unable to bear it any longer, also knelt on the ground.

"Your Highness, these people all come from respectable families. We hope Your Highness will allow them to stay. Please rest assured, Your Highness! They will work diligently from now on and will certainly not let you down."

After he finished speaking, the maids and servants under his command echoed his words.

Left with no other choice, Xu Tian had to let them stay.

They then had the butler take them out to continue their work.
