Chapter 654: Chapter 636: Overnight Stay_1

"Summon the manager!"

These servants sure know how to shirk their duties. As soon as my back is turned, they begin to publicly comply but privately oppose! Time for a good crackdown on them!

The manager arrived swiftly. On seeing Qin Hong's stern expression, his heart dropped. He sensed trouble!

As expected, within moments, Qin Hong delivered his command.

"Who was in charge of the outside gate today? Find this person and give them twenty strokes with the military pole! Let's see if they dare to abandon their duty again!"

The manager's heart sank. He shouted an internal alarm!

"My lord, an incident has occurred with the person guarding the gate today!"

Upon hearing about the incident, Qin Hong's heart pounded wildly. Abandoning all decorum, he pushed away the manager and bolted towards the inner courtyard.

He pushed open the door with force, only to find an empty room. The items that were arranged were missing, including several servants.
