Chapter 250: A Letter From the Qian Dragon Guards
Translator: 549690339
Chen City, at the north gate.
Today was Chen Zhu’s first day as a guard. Although Chen Zhu was a collateral relative of the Chen family, logically speaking, she did not need to do this job.
However, Chen Zhu had always wanted to be a general who led troops to war since he was young. Now that he had finally reached adulthood, he immediately asked his grandfather to greet the Chen Second Master, Chen Shan, and place him among the soldiers of Chen City.
As the county captain of Chen City, Chen Shan naturally had the ability to insert someone into the garrison.
Moreover, this person was a clansman, so Chen Shan did not reject him.
Of course, they did not directly assign important positions. After all, once they entered the garrison camp, they would represent the Chen family’s face.
Naturally, they would have to be properly examined to see if they were really capable.
This city gate guard was Chen Shan’s test for Chen Zhu.
The city gate guards were not to be underestimated. For the safety of Chen City, the city gate guards were the first line of defense.
Some people with ulterior motives needed to be discovered by the city gate guards in advance to avoid losses.
Chen Zhu naturally knew the importance of guards. She immediately raised her spirits and watched everyone who entered Chen City to see if there were any strange existences.
“Eh? Why was this person so nervous?”
Chen Zhu did not expect to meet someone with strange behavior on her first day in office.
Immediately, Chen Zhu stepped forward and came to the side of that person.” Stop!”
The person who was called looked at Chen Zhu and then smiled.”General, why did you stop me?”
“It’s nothing. I just haven’t seen you in Chen City, so I came over to ask out of curiosity.”Chen Zhu said with a smile.
When the man heard this, he quickly smiled and said,” General, you don’t know. I’m from Fengcheng. I admire Chen Cheng, so I came to see if there’s a better development.””
“Admire Chen Cheng?” Chen Zhu smiled and sized up this person. Then, her smile disappeared and she said with a serious expression,”From the moment you approached the north gate, I noticed that you looked a little nervous.”
“I would like to know what you are nervous about. Could it be that my Chen Cheng is in danger?”
Zhao Deshun wanted to slap himself. He was an elite of the Qian Dragon Guard, so how could he have problems with his facial expressions?
He still couldn’t reach the peak of his cultivation. Although this matter was indeed very important and needed to be kept strictly confidential, he couldn’t be nervous because of it.
However, it was useless to think about this now. Right now, he still had to resolve the interrogation.
Zhao Deshun took a deep breath and said slowly,””General, you might not know this, but I’ve been nervous since I was young. Seeing that we’re almost at Chen City, it’s inevitable that I’ll be nervous.”
“Nervous since young?” Chen Zhu circled around Zhao Deshun and smiled.”Since you’ve always been nervous since you were young, why weren’t you nervous when you were talking to me?”
Zhao Deshun didn’t want to give himself a slap now. Instead, he wanted to make him return to the furnace and be reborn.
Damn it, why did his words and actions contradict each other?
It was still because he did not cultivate enough that he was questioned by such a guard.
Damn it, were the guards of Chen City so cautious? Were their eyes all so bright?
Zhao Deshun had no choice but to confess his identity to Chen Zhu.
Immediately, Zhao Deshun whispered into Chen Zhu’s ear,”General, I’m from the Firmament Dragon Guard. I have something to report to the Chen family head.”
Hearing Zhao Deshun’s words, Chen Zhu sized him up in puzzlement.” The Heaven Dragon Guard? Never heard of it.”
Zhao Deshun was speechless.
“General, how about this? Bring me to your family head. This way, even if I have ill intentions, I won’t dare to cause any trouble under the Chen Clan Leader’s watch.”Zhao Deshun said helplessly.
Chen Zhu pondered for a moment. It was indeed feasible.
Everyone knew that the most powerful person in Chen City was their family head. In front of the family head, this person would definitely not be able to overturn the sky.
Of course, if even the family head couldn’t stop this person, then this person’s cultivation must be beyond his imagination.
How could such an expert be nervous?
Immediately, Chen Zhu reported to her leader, then brought Zhao Deshun back to her house.
Seeing that Chen Zhu was willing to bring him to meet the Chen Clan Head, Zhao Deshun heaved a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it was fine as long as he could complete the mission.
As he approached the Chen Family, Zhao Deshun felt more and more relaxed. When he thought of the reward for this mission, Zhao Deshun felt even more comfortable.
But what Zhao Deshun did not expect was that Chen Zhu actually became nervous.
The habits of the Heaven Dragon Guard made Zhao Deshun suspect this person’s identity. He immediately smiled and said,”General, why are you so nervous?”
Chen Zhu heard this and explained with a smile,”I don’t want to see the family head. I’m a little nervous.””
“Oh? Why, is the Chen Clan Leader in some kind of danger that makes you so nervous?”Zhao Deshun returned Chen Zhu’s words to her.
When Chen Zhu heard this, she knew that Zhao Deshun had misunderstood. She immediately explained,”You’re still suspecting my identity.
I’m a member of the Chen family’s branch family. I’ve only seen the family head twice since I was born. Now that I’m about to meet the family head, how can I not be nervous?”
Zhao Deshun believed Chen Zhu’s words for the time being, but he still did not let down his guard against Chen Zhu.
Just like that, the two of them arrived outside the Chen family’s residence. After reporting their intentions to the Chen family’s guards, the two of them stood quietly outside the door and waited.
Not long after, the guard returned.” The master wants you to go in.””
Hearing this, the two of them quickly entered the Chen family and headed straight to the meeting hall.
In the meeting hall, Yang Chen looked at Zhao Deshun and smiled.””How can you prove your identity?”
Zhao Deshun took out a jade pendant and handed it to Yang Chen respectfully.
Looking at the symbol of the Heaven Dragon Guard on the jade pendant, Yang Chen nodded. Tell me, why are you here?”
“Chen Clan Leader, I am here on orders from the commander to pass on information.”Zhao Deshun said.
“Oh?” Chen Yang looked at Zhao Deshun in surprise.” Didn’t we say that we would send the information once a month? Why did we send it in advance?””
“Family Head, the commander said that this information is extremely urgent and he wants to let you know immediately.”Zhao Deshun said.
When Chen Yang heard this, he looked at Chen Zhu.” You’ve done a good job. Go and do your own things first.””
When Chen Zhu heard this, she bowed respectfully.” Yes! Chen Zhu will take his leave.”
After Chen Zhu left, Chen Yang looked at Zhao Deshun.” Where’s the information?”
Hearing this, Zhao Desheng took out a letter from his storage bag and handed it to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen took the letter, tore it open, and read it carefully.
After reading it, Yang Chen threw a Photographic Crystal to Zhao Deshun.” In the future, I’ll use this to send messages to ensure the authenticity and safety.”
“Understood.” Zhao Deshun put away the video crystal and asked,”Does the Chen Clan Leader have any instructions?”
“Tell your commander to keep a tight watch on them. Don’t act rashly and see if you can catch another fish.”Yang Chen said.
“Yes, sir!” Zhao Deshun slowly left the meeting hall and reported to the commander..
