Chapter 418 Take away anyone who looks suspicious

General Zuo looked him up and down and asked, "What's your name?"

"This is Zhang Chen."

"I've been working in the General's Mansion for several years."

"Two years."

"Two years?" General Zuo raised his hand and placed it on his shoulder. "Your internal strength is not low, so how come you're still just a small guard after only two years?"

"I am not talented enough to be appreciated by the general."

"What a pity..." General Zuo patted his shoulder, suddenly with force.

The man's eyes flashed slightly, and he suppressed his murderous intent and used his internal strength to resist. After about a minute, the man bent his knees and knelt on one knee on the ground.

"General Zuo, what are you doing?" Zhan Yi stepped forward.

"Nothing, I just wanted to test the General's Mansion guards." General Zuo retracted his hand: "It's suspicious that such a guard's martial arts skills are so high. Are you sure you know all the guards in Master Zhan's Mansion?"

Zhan Yi's face darkened upon hearing this: "What does General Zuo want to say?"

"I believe that Master Zhan is not a member of the Xiang family. If one or two of them have sneaked in, you wouldn't know. For the safety of the Xiang family, I will bring all these guards back for questioning."

"What qualifications does General Zuo have to interrogate?"

"Don't worry, Master Zhan. If his identity isn't suspicious, we'll bring him back safely." General Zuo finished speaking, and before Master Zhan could say anything, he added, "Master Zhan, why are you trying to stop us? Could it be that the General's Mansion is really hiding someone?"

Zhan Yi was choked and raised his finger to point at the left general's nose: "Stop slandering me. The general's mansion is upright and honest."

"In that case, there's no harm in interrogating him." General Zuo winked at the officers and soldiers.

More than a dozen officers and soldiers surrounded the eight guards.

The woman hiding among the concubines lowered her eyes. The secret guards trained by Xiyan were really getting worse with each generation.

"Let's see who dares to move." Zhan Chi said solemnly, taking two steps forward. "General Zuo has been ordered to track down the thieves, not to ask you to interrogate the General's Mansion."

"Master Zhan, you are wrong. The Emperor has ordered us to track down the thieves. Any suspicious individuals must be brought back for questioning. Why are Master Zhan and Master Zhan trying to stop us..."

"Stop talking nonsense, it's annoying. Just take away anyone you think is suspicious." Ye Qianning really didn't want to listen to his nagging.

General Zuo interrupted and looked down at the little kid.

Zhan Chi was also surprised for a moment. If he asked him to take the man away, it would be difficult for the General's Mansion to get away from it if the other party confessed anything.

"I heard that people in the Ministry of War are sharp and decisive in their work, but I didn't expect there would be such a nagging person. I haven't heard of this before." Ye Qianning frowned, obviously very unhappy.

"What did you say?" General Zuo's face changed immediately.

"Shut up! You take away anyone you suspect. What's the point of taking away all the guards in my general's mansion? If someone didn't know, they would think the emperor ordered you to confiscate the property."

"What the girl said is true. General Zuo, take all the guards with you. If some bad guys take advantage of the situation and break in, and hurt anyone in the general's mansion, you can't afford it." Zhan Yi thought this was fine.

When the woman hidden among the concubines heard this, she felt that the little girl was quite protective. The girl concluded that the hidden guards dared not say anything, so they dared to do so.

He could only blame himself for the fact that their hidden guard's presence was discovered.

The guard remained calm and said nothing.

General Zuo felt heartbroken at the words of a little kid. He turned around and glanced at the eight guards. He had clearly felt the murderous intent just now.

Ordinary guards would never emit such an aura. There must be something fishy among them.

"You, you, and you." He raised his hand and pointed at three people, Zhang Chen was among them.

Ye Qianning frowned. Three?
