Everyone looked at General Mu, especially the envoys from the south. They hadn't thought that after several years, there was still something wrong.
According to General Mu, he had noticed something was wrong and told the old general and the young general, who was also the Grand Prince Consort, but why hadn't they heard about it since?
All we know is that the king and the old general have investigated, but they haven't found the mastermind.
General Mu said, "The young general only told us the location of the attack after he woke up. When he returned seriously injured, he didn't say where he was injured, only that he killed the assassins and a few escaped. After the young general fell unconscious, we searched all over the capital for the location of the incident. At that time, we found three places with serious signs of fighting, but none of them were the riverside that the young general mentioned. After the young general mentioned it, we went to the riverside and found signs of fighting there as well. Before the young general mentioned it, someone else had also searched the riverside, but it wasn't me there, it was another brother. I asked him, and he said very confidently that he had searched the riverside, but he didn't find anything. However, when I led my men there, we saw signs of fighting."
“Anyone who knows kung fu can see these signs of fighting. I believe the other brother wasn’t lying. Also, there are dead assassins on the ground. After inspection, they do look like assassins trained by various forces, but their deaths are somewhat different.”
"How should I put it? The fatal wounds didn't seem to be from the same weapon, and all the dead soldiers had one thing in common: their faces were disfigured. At first, the brothers said that the young general was taking revenge and had gone all out, which is why some people escaped. Those who escaped were probably frightened by the young general! But in my opinion, that's not the case. The young general isn't such an irrational person."
"Just as Lord Jiang said, the young general is one of the most handsome men in our Nanlin, but he is also the most capable son of the old general. He doesn't care much about his appearance. I remember when he was young, because he had red lips and white teeth, some women said he looked like a girl, and he was quite unhappy about it and went back to throw a tantrum. Later, when he got older, he learned to look at people with a cold eye, and people were intimidated by his gaze, so they gradually stopped talking about it. So the young general doesn't care about his appearance, unlike him who would go crazy and disfigure the faces of those assassins to a bloody mess just because he was disfigured."
"The most important point is that the young general clearly stated that he only killed the assassins and did not disfigure their faces. In the end, no one knew what really happened. The assassins that the young general mentioned escaped were never traced back to where they came from."
"Later, the young general recovered from his injuries and was willing to see the eldest princess. After marrying her, he took her back to Haicheng. Oh, Haicheng is where the young general was stationed, facing Jiacang across the sea."
General Mu expressed all his doubts, and he felt a little relieved afterward.
He didn't know what he was suspecting, but he just felt that something was wrong with the matter. Over the years, apart from the initial mention to the old general, he had never brought it up again, and he had never mentioned anything about it.
