Chapter 500: Burning eyes
Marshal w.a.n.g took a deep breath to pressed down the pressure on his head and to calm down the anger in his heart. He had long known that General Hu and General Shi were close to Prince Xiao. He didn’t take this matter seriously before. He thought that they were just clown jumping over the branch, but they could never shake Prince Jin.
However, he was wrong, it was all his fault!
Prince Jin was far away in the northwest. He didn’t know that General Hu and Prince Xiao were secretly contacting each other. However, he was in the capital. He knew everything about this matter. So why he didn’t take it seriously? Is he too confident about Prince Jin, or he was too careless?
If he made an early call, or even just remind Prince Jin secretly, they may not have encountered tragedy!
Blame him, blame him!
Seeing Marshal w.a.n.g’s complexion getting worse, Vice General Zhang couldn’t help but be more anxious: “Marshal, you’re angry again. The doctor said you must pay attention to your health. You must not get angry frequently. Otherwise, once you get sick, the consequences will be unimaginable.”
Marshal w.a.n.g stretched his hand and held the teacup, took a sip and nodded his head: “You are right, I can’t be angry now. I can’t get into trouble again. Prince Jin’s life and death are still uncertain. I can’t fall anymore. I must return this marshal position to him personally. ”
Vice General Zhang didn’t say anything, he just deeply sighed inside his heart. The world had already accepted the death of Prince Jin. Only Marshal refused to accept it.
He always believed that Prince Jin didn’t die, or would never die.
Suddenly, there were soldiers outside shouting: “General Hu is here, General Shi is here, and General Zhu is here.”
Vice General Zhang stepped aside, while Marshal w.a.n.g remained sitting. His eyes that were full of grief and anger swept towards the three generals coming from the outside the camp.
The three came forward to salute: “This subordinate greets the Marshal!”
Marshal w.a.n.g waved his hand: “You don’t have to be too polite. Vice General Zhang Jing just told me that you are outside the military camp. My eyes are old and didn’t see you.”
General Hu smiled and said: “The Marshal is still in his prime, his gaze is burning like a torch. I can’t wait for you to arrive. I hope Marshal will not blame me.”
Marshal w.a.n.g chuckled twice, which made General Hu had a goose b.u.mp.
General Hu raised his eyes and looked around for a while, then asked: “Did the Marshal see the two maids that I arrange to serve you?”
Marshal w.a.n.g waved his hand: “I’m a bad old man, I don’t need any maid, so I let them go. You don’t need to send them back.”
General Hu guessed things would be like this. Marshal w.a.n.g was a stubborn old man who doesn’t like mixing oil and salt. He doesn’t love money or women. Fortunately, he had prepared two plans at hand.
“Sit down!” Marshal w.a.n.g’s eyes then fell on Zhu Yuan and asked in a low voice: “Are you, Zhu Yuan?”
Zhu Yuan was flattered that Marshal w.a.n.g still remembered him.
“It is this general!”
Marshal w.a.n.g said: “I remember, you used to be the Vice General of White Tiger Camp. What is your position now?”
Zhu Yuan busily replied: “Answering back to Marshal, this subordinate is now the Chief General of Black Sparrow Camp.”
“Black Sparrow Camp?” Marshal w.a.n.g raised an eyebrow and asked: “I haven’t heard this Black Sparrow Camp, is it a new camp?”
Zhu Yuan shook his head: “The Black Sparrow Camp is the former White Tiger Camp. After the death of General Lian, this subordinate was promoted by his Royal Highness Prince Xiao, from vice general to chief general.”
“You stand, and tell me why did you change the name?” Marshal w.a.n.g’s cold eyes forced Zhu Yuan to answer. He hated betrayal the most, especially in the army.
Zhu Yuan remained calm, which was very different from General Hu, who’s having a cold sweat and General Shi, who has an evasive look.
Or perhaps, he knew this day would come, so he practiced such a scene countless times in his heart.
