Chapter 643 - 643 Their Personalities Should Be Similar
643 Their Personalities Should Be Similar
“How did this happen?”
The guardians of the swamp, in particular, gathered in a group and discussed when they heard that their captain had changed.
“Captain didn’t do anything wrong. Why did he get dismissed so easily?”
“It’s all because of that woman, Ye Chenglin! If I were him, I would have strangled her to death long ago!”
“That’s right! Captain Ye… Uh, Brother Chengzong is so pitiful. Ye Chenglin implicated him!”
They were very impressed by Yan Qin and had no objections to him becoming the captain. After all, this was an order from their Master.
However, they felt it was a pity that Ye Chengzong was not a captain. Everyone knew how capable he was.
“Shh, don’t talk about Ye Chenglin.”
One of the guardians gestured for them to keep quiet and looked around carefully.
When he saw that Ye Chengzong and the others were not around, he continued secretly, “You didn’t hear about this last night, but Ye Chengzong even blamed Master and Mistress for what happened with Ye Chenglin.”
“What? This can’t be true, right?” someone asked.
If Ye Chengzong really blamed Master and Mistress, it was only right that Master did not want Ye Chengzong to be the captain. Who would want a disloyal person to take on an important role by their side?
“Where did you hear that? Why didn’t I hear about it?”
“Where else? In the tent! Have you forgotten? I’m in the same tent as him,” the guardian replied in a hushed voice.
He speculated that his Master might have anticipated that Ye Chengzong would turn disloyal because of Ye Chenglin, which was why he stripped him of his position as a captain in advance, just in case.
It made sense. Making an early move was better than anything happening in the future, right?
“It’s understandable that he blames Master. After all, he has served him for many years. Master has to show some mercy. But blaming Mistress? It’s not like Mistress asked Ye Chenglin to provoke her.”
In reality, there was no one to blame but Ye Chenglin herself, as she had set her sights too high and dared to covet someone beyond her reach.
Master never spared her a glance, yet she could fantasize about being someone to him. If all the women in the camp were like her, wouldn’t it be chaotic?
“Who knows? He may even blame Mistress for snatching Master away and causing his sister to lose a great opportunity.”
“Just drop it.” Everyone looked at him with disdain.
“If Master liked Ye Chenglin, he would have liked her long ago. Why would he wait until now?”
“Ye Chenglin thinks everyone is inferior to her. I don’t even like her, let alone our Master. Would he like her?”
“Only Ming Fucheng from Camp Yueming would, right? I heard that Ming Fucheng is not a good person. Since Ye Chenglin is willing to follow someone like that, their personalities should be similar.”
“Alright, stop talking. What’s there to talk about?”
Old Jiang walked over from afar and spoke to them with a straight face.
He was a deputy in the swamp and had some authority. The moment he spoke, everyone around him dispersed.
Only two people remained, surrounding Old Jiang.
They looked at Old Jiang with concern and asked, “Old Jiang, will Ye Chengzong being stripped of his captain position affect you?”
