"There's someone on the bed- Do you think it's him?" whispered a guard from the doorway. He dared not get any closer until confirming it was him, and getting other guards to help him.
Which fool would dare face the leader of the jianghu alone. That's basically something you would only do if you had a death wish. It was foolish to even try to be the one to capture the jianghu leader alone, even if the rewards were great.
After all, one must be alive to enjoy the rewards they reap.
Sure it could be passed down to your family, but it wasn't like the salary of a guard was that little. It would be crazy to attempt something reckless like that for a stingy emperor who would probably reward them with peanuts.
