Chapter 605 - 605 Leaving and Saying Goodbye
605 Leaving and Saying Goodbye
After Lin yuelan heard Jiang Zhennan say that there was a letter from the capital, she was silent for a moment before she asked again, ” when do you plan to leave? ”
Jiang Zhennan must have been so honest with her because this letter was an opportunity for them to return to the capital.
Jiang Zhennan’s slightly hoarse and magnetic voice said, ” in three days!”
Lin yuelan nodded and said, ” okay!”
After that, she turned around and left.
Jiang Zhennan looked at Lin yuelan’s small and exquisite figure, and his expression suddenly became a little overwhelmed.
He really couldn’t understand what Lin yuelan meant. Did she not care, or was she angry?
He recalled how he had been looking forward to the opportunity to return to the capital when he first entered the Lin family Village.
He was not going back to the capital for the glory and wealth of his defender-general position but for the safety of his hundreds of thousands of soldiers and the entire country.
As the defender-general of the state, he led 300000 troops of the Longyan Kingdom. He was also the God of War and protector in the hearts of the people.
As there was no war at the moment, he received orders to return to the capital to assist the Emperor in dealing with some troublesome matters in secret.
When he first returned to the capital, he took 30000 troops and horses and stationed them outside the walls of the capital. Then, he took 300 subordinates and personal guards and returned to the defender General’s mansion.
He had been poisoned, and his life was in danger. Then, he left the general’s mansion in a hurry. It was hard to say whether he was dead or alive. Other than a few personal guards who knew about it, no one else could leak any information. Otherwise, whether it was the 30000 soldiers on the outskirts of the capital or the 300000 soldiers on the border, it was easy for them to lose their morale. Once the enemy found out, they were likely to take advantage of the chaos to attack. Therefore, he believed that the enemy who had secretly poisoned him would not be so stupid as to spread the news of his disappearance. Once His Majesty investigated, they would be in a difficult situation. Thus, they had to hide his disappearance in secret and wait for the right time.
However, he, the general, had not shown his face in front of the soldiers for almost half a year.
If he still didn’t appear, then there would really be a big problem.
Firstly, the morale of the army was low. Secondly, the enemies in the dark were probably looking for an excuse to make him appear. If he didn’t appear, they would charge him with all kinds of crimes, such as looking down on the Emperor, disloyalty, and attempting to seize power.
Therefore, now that the letter came, he had no choice but to return to the capital.
However, he was very reluctant to leave.
He was reluctant to part with everything here, whether it was the peace or the people here.
If he could, he really wanted to give up his identity as the defender-general of the state and live in seclusion in the mountain village. He wanted to live a life of an ordinary farmer who worked at sunrise and rested at sunset. He really wanted to enjoy the peace and tranquility here. Although there were some small quarrels between the people here, he enjoyed his life there. He wanted to talk about the world and daily life with the person he liked.
However, from the moment Lin yuelan saved them, it was destined that his dream of living in the countryside would be completely destroyed.
Not to mention Lin yuelan’s current ability, which was only the tip of the iceberg, her wealth, and so on. All these things would attract the coveting of those rich, powerful, and greedy people. If she didn’t have a certain power to protect her, she would be in a lot of trouble.
Therefore, he wanted to be the force that stood behind her to protect her. With the protection of the defender general’s mansion, he believed that any force that wanted to touch Lin yuelan would have to think twice and not dare to act rashly.
The second was that Lin yuelan had saved all of them. Those forces that had secretly harmed him would definitely find Lin yuelan as soon as they received the news. They would definitely be disadvantageous to her.
This was why he had to return to the capital as soon as possible to stop those people from tracking her down.
Therefore, he had to return to the capital!
…
“Boss, are we just going to leave like this?”
In the dead of the night, five tall figures stood at an intersection, and the person who had just spoken was obviously Guo Bing, whose tone was full of reluctance.
Jiang Zhennan turned around. His eyes, which were as sharp as an eagle’s, looked at the tall house that was faintly discernible in the dark night. His eyes were full of reluctance, and there was also an inexplicable emotion in his eyes.
After a moment, he said coldly, ” let’s go!”
“Boss, are we really not going to say goodbye to Miss Lin?” Guo Bing was obviously a little worried as he said, ” ever since the boss told miss Lin that we would be leaving in three days, she has not appeared in front of us again. Everything has been handed over to the Butler to arrange. I wonder what she’s been up to these past three days.”
