Chapter 308

"No matter what, even if His Majesty is increasingly suspicious of our Meng family, we must find the true mastermind from back then."

Meng Tian said in a deep voice.

Finding the true mastermind from back then was not only to prove the Meng family's innocence,

but also to clear Young Master Mo's name.

The God of War of the past did not die at the hands of the Xiongnu because of his own failure.

It was entirely due to the framing of treacherous officials and villains that he died on the battlefield.

Just as the Meng brothers had made their decision, on the other side, a major event broke out at the Wang Fu.

Ever since the old General returned from the palace, he directly announced he was critically ill.

Because the old General had very high prestige in the army,

many military officers came to the Wang Fu to visit the old General.

But the old General closed his doors to all guests and would see no one.

This confirmed the rumors of the old General's critical illness.

"I originally thought the old General's constitution could hold out for a few more years, but I didn't expect that he wouldn't make it now."

"Yes, indeed."

"The young General Wang Ben is also capable of shouldering the heavy responsibility of the Wang family."

Regarding the father and son of the Wang family, their reputation in Xianyang City was still very good.

After all, the old General had spent his life on the battlefield, guarding the territory for Great Qin and protecting the entire Great Qin.

The common people were not all blind.

Wang Ben was very confused about the old General closing his doors to guests and claiming to be critically ill in bed.

"Father, wouldn't it be better to change to another reason? Why choose to use this one?"

Wang Ben asked with some confusion.

Because of his father's position in the army, His Majesty would sometimes refer to his father's opinions on certain matters.

This resulted in the old General, although not having great power now, still having some real authority in his hands.

This successfully guaranteed the Wang family's status in the army remained unshaken.

But once his father claimed to be critically ill and unwilling to see guests,

it was equivalent to handing over the only bit of power his family had.

This made Wang Ben very confused.

"Do you only see what is right in front of you?"

Wang Jian glanced at his son and sighed deeply.

Although his son had achieved quite a bit in martial arts due to his own influence,

perhaps because of himself, his son had not grown up.

When looking at problems, he always looked at them too one-sidedly.
