486. Chapter 486 Entrustment before departure

When Li Yan came out of the Nanping County Prince's Mansion, his expression was extremely complicated. No one knew what Li Yan said about what Gao Chongwen said. However, after Li Yan returned to the palace, he issued an order to order Gao Pian, the governor of Dujidao, to lead his subordinates to quickly go to Dongchuan to assist Yan Qingfu, and block the Nanzhao army outside Chengdu. Then he issued an order to command Wei Bo Jielang to lead his cavalry to advance to Hexi and jointly resist the Tubo Iron Cavalry with Zhang Huaishen.

After these two decrees were issued, Li Yan issued another decree. He specially ordered Bai Shiyan, the Minister of Rites, to go to Hebei. One was to clarify the truth about the murder case and stealing scriptures, and the other was to calm the anger of the two tribes as a peace talk messenger. The current situation seemed a bit amazing, and everyone was in a tense atmosphere. However, in Fan Yang's marquis' mansion, Chen Hao was sitting on the side of the chessboard in the pavilion in the backyard, holding black in one hand and holding white in the other, and falling chess pieces with a heavy face.

The black and white chess pieces on the chessboard are intertwined and the dog teeth are difficult to tell the winner. If you analyze it carefully, you can see that the black pieces in this chess game are slightly superior at this moment. At this time, a light breeze blows, Chen Hao's sword eyebrows tremble slightly. He walked out of the meditation of the chess game and whispered to the outside of the yard: "Since you are here, why don't Brother Yi come in and play a game with Chen?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a figure appeared outside the courtyard gate. This man was wearing a casual clothes, and the white hair on his forehead was particularly eye-catching. Chen Hao was right. This man was Yi Chengtian, the governor of Fan Yang. He came here today at Chen Hao's invitation. Since Chen Hao fainted at the door two months ago, he has been closed to anyone. Even his old friend was ruthlessly turned away.

And just early this morning, when he learned that Chen Hao had something to talk to him, he turned down all the trivial matters and came to the Marquis' Mansion early. When asked the entourage, he learned that Chen Hao was safe and sound, Yi Chengtian's heart was finally relieved. Seeing Chen Hao focused on playing chess at the gate of the yard, he was embarrassed to disturb Chen Hao's Yaxing, and it was not too late to wait until Chen Hao finished playing the chess game before going in. But just as he was about to retreat to the living room to wait, Chen Hao suddenly called him to stop.

"Changfeng, I hope you will be mourning and adapting to the changes in your younger siblings!" Yi Chengtian turned around and walked towards the pavilion. Although he saw Chen Hao's expression as usual, he knew that this time Mulushiya's death had a great blow to Chen Hao.

Chen Hao did not respond or get up, but another black spot fell on his right hand, and then he said to himself: "Don't force or ask for anything, Brother Yi, please sit down!"

Yi Chengtian looked at Chen Hao so calm, but he was extremely worried. The more calm and impermanent Chen Hao was, the more uneasy Yi Chengtian felt. You should know that Chen Hao had privately entered the Forbidden Palace for the sake of Mulushiya and openly challenged the current emperor. This shows the relationship between the two. In Yi Chengtian's opinion, Chen Hao was trying his best to hide the pain in his heart.

As the governor of Fan Yang, he actually let the bride die in his jurisdiction, which made him feel guilty. At the beginning, he made a promise in front of Chen with confidence that as long as the wedding was held in Youzhou, everything would be foolish. The promises that were still in my ears, but now they are such an ending.

Now, not only has the failure to ensure Mulushiya's personal safety, but it has led to incomplete corpses and has not captured the culprit yet. This kind of self-blame from the bottom of his heart has tortured him for a long time. He once wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to visit him many times to express his apology to Chen Hao. However, Chen Hao's repeated refusals have made him mistakenly think that Chen Hao has resentment towards him.

Now Chen Hao's dullness has made Yi Chengtian feel more and more guilty. So he came to Chen Hao and knelt on one knee and said ashamed: "Changfeng! Yi is entrusted!"

"Brother Yi is too serious this time. Everything has cause and effect, which is not something you can predict. Besides, why did Chen blame you? The reason why Chen refused to see a guest a few days ago was because of his physical discomfort, and Chen also needed to think about some things carefully! Brother Yi, you can't misunderstand that Chen is!" Chen Hao held up Yi Chengtian with both hands, and then explained earnestly.

After Yi Chengtian sat down worriedly, Chen Hao continued to whisper: "Brother Yi, Chen asked you to come to the mansion today, but there is something that Chen needs to tell you before leaving!"

Yi Chengtian was stunned when he heard this, then frowned and said in confusion: "Changfeng, you are leaving!"

Seeing Chen Hao nodding slightly with ease, Yi Chengtian felt inexplicably disappointed. After a moment of silence, he slowly spoke: "It seems that you don't want to be involved in the vortex of this battle..."

Now Tubo and Nanzhao have conquered several cities in a row, and wars have been ignited in the southwest. At this time, Hebei is facing the restraint of the Xi tribe and the Khitan tribe. Although it is not as fierce as Tubo and Nanzhao, it is still not to be underestimated. Yi Chengtian originally thought that he could make great achievements with Chen Hao this time, but he never thought that Chen Hao had already wanted to retreat.

However, Yi Chengtian thought about it and agreed with Chen Hao's decision out of his friend's position. After experiencing ups and downs, what did he get? Besides, Chen Hao is suspected of stealing, and if he didn't leave as soon as possible, the court wouldn't let Chen Hao go. Sometimes he felt that it was not worth it for Chen Hao, but he had no choice but to have the power of the emperor. Perhaps he was in the countryside as soon as possible, and playing in the world is the best way for this friend in front of him, so he asked in a low voice with a complicated expression: "When will you leave?"

Seeing Yi Chengtian's loneliness, Chen Hao coughed a few times, then smiled and said, "Brother Yi doesn't have to do this. Chen will leave in two days because he has to wait for someone!"

"Oh? Who can make Changfeng wait for you in person?" Yi Chengtian became interested in asking when he heard Chen Hao was waiting for someone. In Yi Chengtian's understanding, the person who could make Chen Hao wait was definitely not ordinary people.

Seeing that Yi Chengtian was so curious, Chen Hao did not hide it, so he said bluntly: "A friend Bai Shiyan, who is waiting for the capital, will come to Hebei Prime Minister Shiya this time and the stolen scriptures! If Chen is sure that he is right, he will arrive in Youzhou at dusk tomorrow!"

Yi Chengtian couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he heard this. He was amazed that Chen Hao's news was more informative than the official ones, and was also surprised that Chen Hao was trying to do what he wanted. Even though he knew that someone from the capital was reviewing the matter, why not leave early to avoid causing trouble? Is it just to reminisce with his friends?

Just when Yi Chengtian was shocked, Chen Hao continued, "Brother Yi, don't worry too much, Chen has his own plans!" Then he returned to the main topic: "Before leaving, Chen hopes you will deal with it like this..."

Chen Hao was less than the details, Yi Chengtian listened in detail, until the end Yi Chengtian looked up at Chen Hao in shock, and after a long time he asked, "Changfeng, are you...are you sure?"

"Why, I can't believe me!" Chen did not answer Yi Chengtian's question positively, but asked directly.

Yi Chengtian did not say anything, but glanced at the chessboard on the stone table, and finally smiled heartily: "Believe! Of course, believe it! If you say that Yi can believe it in this world, you, Chen Changfeng!"
