As the saying goes, cypress!

I could hear his voice from the moment he spoke, but at this moment I saw others standing there, I still couldn't believe that this former Grand Master actually appeared in this place?!

Moreover, seeing his short dress, his trousers were tied to his knees, showing his sturdy calves, which were stained with mud, and he kept fanning himself with a straw hat in his hand. No wonder I didn't recognize him when I first saw him.

As the saying goes, didn’t he resign and return to his hometown? Why did he come to Xichuan?

Qinghan beside him was also surprised when he saw him. At this time, Chang Yanbai slowly turned his head to see us, but he did not look as shocked as us. He just raised his gray eyebrows slightly, and then he still fanned his straw hat and looked at us with a smile.

This time, I understood a little about what happened before.

Wei Yang saw the old man looking at us, and then the expressions of Qinghan and me. He was also a person with a sharp gaze. He immediately saw something and leaned forward to me and asked in a low voice: "Cousin, do you know him?"

I nodded and said, "Those men in black were sent by him, and he is the owner of the villa."

"Ah? Then he is-"

"As for the saying goes, Bai, the Queen's father."

Wei Yang opened his eyes slightly widened. It was probably the first time he had come into contact with such a high-ranking official. He hurriedly turned around and looked at Chang Yanbai, who stood in the middle of the water and looked at us with a smile.

It's already this time, of course there is no need to hide it anymore. Moreover, if the other party is him, I really want to breathe a sigh of relief. After all, he is the father of Chang Yanyan and Chang Qing.

Thinking of this, I was about to ride over.

However, as soon as he took a step, he felt Qinghan around him motionless. He turned around and looked at him. He looked at the two people who had parted ways. He thought, and I whispered: "Qinghan, what's wrong with you?"

He hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Since it's Taishi Chang, then I-I still can't get over."

“…”

By the way, he and the Chang family have a rift.

I asked, "Then where are you going?"

"I'm right here, I have something to think about."

"Then I'll leave people for you. He has seen us, and it's not good to bring so many people over."

He thought about it, nodded, and looked at Wei Yang again: "Then, Master Wei, please follow Qingying to go there."

Wei Yang immediately nodded and said, "Don't worry, I won't leave my cousin's side."

After discussing, Qinghan stayed here, so I and Wei Yang turned over and walked over with the horse. Chang Yanbai also walked up to us with kindness and said with a smile: "Miss Yan, are you okay?"

"Taoshi..."

"Oh," he smiled and waved his hand: "I have resigned from office for a long time. I am not a grand master now, but just an old man in thick clothes and cloth pants."

I immediately changed my mouth and said, "Shi Bo was joking. Shi Bo was full of knowledge and was the humerus of the country. Even if he resigned from office and retired, he was wearing thick clothes and cloth pants, he was still wearing brown and jade."

As the saying goes, Bai Ha laughed.

After laughing, his eyes looked at Wei Yang next to me again. I hurriedly introduced: "This is my cousin, Wei Yang."

Wei Yang hurriedly bowed to him. Chang Yanbai looked him up and down, sighing with admiration in his eyes: "Xichuan is indeed a master of earth spirit. Miss Yan is not inferior to her. Your cousin is also a man of humanity."

"I am ashamed to be so proud of my uncle."

I originally wanted to say a few more words, haha, after all, I haven't met for a long time, and I can't figure out the other party's background for a while, but the next moment, Chang Yanbai smiled and said, "Then, the one who followed me to track down my residence should be this Master Wei, right?"

Wei Yang and I paused slightly, but unexpectedly, he still noticed it.

However, this incident cannot be considered an accident. This place is an ordinary village at first glance, and everyone has lived here for generations. It is of course very eye-catching to see a stranger, especially those who look like Wei Yang. It is common for Bai, who sees him, has been here for a long time.

So, I smiled and said, "This is all a misunderstanding, but I am also a little surprised. Isn't it time to return to my hometown after resigning from office? Why did you come to this place?"

The two of us looked at each other with a smile, but there was too much deep meaning hidden in this smile, and even this pastoral scroll with green mountains and green waters became gloomy. However, at this moment, a cheerful smile suddenly sounded next to us. When we turned around, we saw that it was the children just now. They found a group of small fish in the river, constantly chasing and playing, splashing huge splashes. The laughter wiped out the gloom of the moment.

Both Chang Yanbai and I couldn't help but turn our heads over and take a look, and then both of us seemed to be a little dazed.

After a while, he said, "Since Miss Yan and I have so many problems, why not move to my residence, where there is tea and water, so you can sit down and talk slowly."

I smiled and said, "Okay, then I'll bother Uncle Shi."

After saying that, I followed him with Wei Yang. When Chang Yanbai turned around, he glanced at Qinghan not far away, and without saying anything, he led us away.

After crossing the river, I turned two bends along the field path, and sure enough, I saw a manor at the foot of the mountain. It didn't cover too much land, but in such a place, the house that was too big seemed awkward. Instead, his porch was clean. Before entering the door, the gatekeeper even called a bucket of water to rinse his feet, washed it, and then walked in with a pair of cloth shoes.

If I hadn't seen the energy of the Chang Yanbo in the court, I would have thought that he was just an ordinary rich man when I saw this old man.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! This villa is not gorgeous, but it looks very clear.

Chang Yanbai kept leading us to a Changxuan. As soon as he walked in, the servant brought us hot tea. Chang Yanbai held the tea cup and said with a smile: "There are no good tea in the remote countryside, so let's drink it."

I asked, it was indeed ordinary flower tea, not a fine product, but the faint fragrance seemed to fit the pastoral scenery. I took a sip, then smiled and said, "It smells so good."

Wei Yang also took a sip and smiled.

When everyone had tea and put down the tea cup, a brief silence appeared in the open pavilion.

It's time to go, of course, we have to talk about the serious matters.

However, I haven't figured out what kind of attitude Chang Yanbai is, and I don't want to question Chang Qing's father, so I was a little hesitant, but Chang Yanbai smiled and said, "Miss Yan is still wondering why I will come to Xichuan when I resigned from office and return home."

I said, "Yes, Shi Bo's hometown doesn't seem to be in Xichuan."

He smiled and said, "So, I return home, but not my hometown, but the countryside. Miss Yan probably knows that the world is in chaos and there is a constant war outside. There is only one who can live a stable life in this world, and only you Xichuan."

"But," I smiled: "But when Shiwang resigned and left Beijing, there was no chaos in the world and the war had not been ignited."

“…”

Chang Yanbai paused for a moment, but he did not have the embarrassment of being exposed by me, but smiled faintly and said, "There are always wise people who think about things in the world first."

"In other words, at that time, Shiwang already knew that the world would be in chaos and war would be rampant?"

"..." He smiled and agreed.

"Who is the wise man? He thought about such a thing first?"

“…”

He didn't say anything, just looked at me calmly. I was silent for a while and slowly said, "His Majesty the Emperor..."

As the saying goes, Bai didn't agree, so he just picked up the teacup and blew it, and took another sip.

And I breathed a sigh of relief.

Pei Yuanhao, when he was always saying that Bai had resigned from office, had already reminded him not to go back to his hometown, but to Xichuan. In other words, at that time, he had realized that the world would be in chaos and war would be everywhere.

He even expected this. When Pei Yuanxiu entered the capital, he was not prepared at all, but retreated early and evacuated to the southwest. He had known that all this would happen, so he had been making these preparations long ago.

I didn't know what to say for a moment, just sat there in silence.

However, after Guan Yanbai finished taking a sip of tea and put the tea cup back on the table, he looked up at me and said, "To put it, I actually have one more thing, I am just trying to ask Miss Yan for help."

I hurriedly said, "Shibo, please tell me."

"These people of me - they were just following my orders to find out about the prince's news, and they were not malicious. I heard that Miss Yan is very famous in Xishan Academy. I hope you can tell their mountain leader, since one of them has been released, why not let them go?"

“…”

I was a little embarrassed when I said this. He obviously had already seen that we were deliberately letting someone go to find out his background.

I coughed lightly and said, "Uncle Shi knew that His Highness the Crown Prince was in Xishan Academy?"

As the saying goes, Bai smiled faintly: "I live here. Besides, Xishan Academy is well-known. I can't help but not hear what happened there."

In this way, he entered Xichuan and went anywhere, but went to Xishan Academy to be a rich man. It seems that he had already made arrangements.

He, or Pei Yuanhao, had been staring at Xishan Academy for a long time.

Chang Yanbai smiled and said, "I know that this matter is a bit difficult, but Miss Yan should also think about it. His Highness the Crown Prince was so close to Miss Yan and regarded you as his aunt. Now that the Crown Prince is in trouble, Miss Yan should not stand by and watch."

“…”

I frowned slightly when he said it.
