My System Is Three Thousand Years Early

"He's not worthy, even as a mole, he can't stir up much trouble."

Cheng Guang took a deep breath and continued, "Qin Gaozhi isn't one, but the person behind him is."

"The person behind Qin Gaozhi is?" Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, was startled again at this moment.

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, was not a fool; with just a little thought, he understood what Cheng Guang meant, who the person behind the scenes was referring to.

His brows furrowed, and he slowly drew out his Qi, isolating the hall from the outside world.

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, looked solemnly at Cheng Guang.

"Are you saying your Mr. Qin is the mole?"

Cheng Guang gazed at Duke Zhen Guo Cheng Shiyuan, observing his facial expression.

All he saw on Duke Zhen Guo Cheng Shiyuan's face was seriousness.

But he did not see much suspicion.

It seemed that Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, could accept the news quickly.

This struck Cheng Guang as somewhat strange.

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, just glanced at Cheng Guang, and from his eyes and expression, he could feel what Cheng Guang was thinking at the moment.

He just chuckled while stroking his beard, expressing his helplessness.

"What do you think I am?"

"I just didn't expect there to be moles within the Northern Expedition Army, but you are my grandson. If you say there are, then even if I don't want to believe it, I'd still be inclined toward you."

"My grandson, as the sole heir to Duke Zhen's Mansion in the future, you should have this confidence."

Hearing Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, speak in such a way, Cheng Guang relaxed, ceased hesitating, and nodded slightly.

"Mr. Qin is very likely to be one."

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, asked again, "Is there evidence?"

At this moment, Cheng Guang's expression became slightly stuck, a bit awkward.

Then he gently shook his head.

"No."

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, was helpless.

"Without evidence, even if I believe what you say, that Qin Beifeng is a mole, what's the use? After all, I can't just capture Qin Beifeng and kill him, can I?"

"The soldiers under me would think I've gone mad if they saw that."

Cheng Guang just said, "As long as you, grandfather, become vigilant and pay more attention from now on, that would be good."

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, nodded, then sipped his tea thoughtfully, waved his hand to disperse the surrounding Qi, and spoke to Cheng Guang.

"Grandson, I take note of this matter. Don't publicize this issue. I will do my own investigation."

"Your Mr. Qin has been with me for over twenty years."

"The time with me is not too long but not too short either, and he has established splendid military exploits. If he were a mole, I wouldn't know what he was plotting."

"You may leave now."

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan, might have felt a bit flustered at this moment, as there were more issues to deal with and no time to chat further with Cheng Guang.

Cheng Guang nodded slightly.

He bowed to Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan.

Just as he was about to excuse himself,

a soldier rushed in from outside the house, cupped his fists, and spoke loudly.

"Duke! There's trouble!"

"The Great Yan Dynasty has withdrawn troops from the Border Area battlefield!!"

"A multitude of Demon Beasts have flooded into Great Yan territory, with a large swarm also heading towards our North City!"

Upon these words,

it was as though thunder shook the ears.

Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan's breathing became shallow, and the tea he had just brought to his lips now could not be swallowed.

He set down his teacup, his eyes filled with shock, and he looked at Cheng Guang.

My grandson is almost prophetic!!

The Great Yan Dynasty has truly withdrawn troops from the Border Area battlefield!!??

Waves of astonishment surged in Duke Zhen Guo, Cheng Shiyuan's heart.

He hadn't even discovered news that the Great Yan Dynasty would withdraw troops from the Border Area frontier, and now the event had already taken place!

Utterly preposterous!!
