Confidence comes from strength. Today, Chen An is not afraid of direct head-on conflicts with Jiangzhou soldiers and horse envoys. He was able to scatter thousands of troops alone, and the same is true for today's Yongping Prefecture!

In the era of cold weapons, individual courage can infinitely amplify, and sometimes it can even determine the outcome of a war. Even in modern society dominated by hot weapons, individual courage can still exert their remaining energy in small-scale battles.

Although he is not as good as Li Yuanba who was fictional and deified in the Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, he believes that he is not inferior to Xiang Yu, the overlord who is known for his bravery in history books. So what are the fears of a mere state military envoy?

The only thing that really worried him was how to explain his departure to the little girl.

The little girl once asked him if he would always protect himself.

Chen An, who did not want to hurt her heart again, agreed, but when he sent the little girl Ping An back to Tang Xuanfu, he knew that he had to break the promise that was wrong.

He and the little girl had no relatives and no reason, and their encounter was ultimately an accident.

He sacrificed his life to save her from the robber, and finally sent her back to his father after many difficulties.

What he asked for was self-salvation that no longer felt guilty.

To this day, Chen An, who has caused countless troubles to protect her, has a reason to leave.

From then on, the two of them might as well forget each other.

During dinner, Chen Andu stayed in the wing room and refused Tang Zhiyao's banquet. After all, he had eaten food from more than 40 people in the mansion not long ago. Besides, he was not tempted to talk to Tang Zhiyao and left tomorrow. Even if he lost his courtesy, he would not bother to continue socializing with the other party.

The little girl Yaoyao said she would ignore him before. After dinner, she seemed to have forgotten about this matter. Then, accompanied by the maid, she obediently approached Chen An.

When I first arrived at Yongping Mansion, where I was unfamiliar with my father, my father was often busy and had no time to accompany me, and Chen An was unconscious. The maids and nannies who could talk and chat in the mansion were due to the gap in their status and their attitude of being cautious in words and actions made people feel extremely boring, so you can imagine the loneliness of the little girl these days.

After nightfall, dim candles were lit in the wing room.

Chen An sat at the Eight Immortals table in the house, quietly listening to the trivial things about life told by the little girl beside him, while the maid Xiao An was waiting by the door, and her lengthened figure could be vaguely seen on the ground.

"Yaoyao."

While the little girl was talking and drinking tea, Chen An suddenly spoke.

"What's wrong with Uncle?" The little girl held the teacup and looked at Chen Andao in confusion.

"I'm leaving here tomorrow." Chen An whispered.

Bang-

As soon as the words fell, the teacup in the little girl's hand fell to the ground in an instant. On her childish cute face, her bright big eyes were filled with crystal tears.

"Uncle, do you want Yaoyao anymore?"

"Since I sent you back to your father's hands, my uncle has no longer cared about it, so it's time for uncle to leave." Chen An squeezed out a smile and said.

"But, didn't uncle say that he would protect Yaoyao for the rest of his life? Uncle, this big liar! How can you keep your word?!" The little girl couldn't help crying at Chen An, which caused Xiao An, the maid outside the door to run in anxiously to check what was going on.

Chen An looked at the maid and waved her to retreat without any reason. Xiao An hesitated for a while, and then retreated silently.

"Since Yaoyao is back home, and it's time for uncle to go home, so can Yaoyao understand the meaning of uncle leaving?"

He made up a kind lie to comfort Yaoyao who was crying. In fact, this lie may not be a lie. One day, he will leave this world.

"So uncle also has home?" the little girl choked up, wiping her tears.

"Of course, because my uncle has parents like Yaoyao, I have been away from home for so long, and I believe the two elders are very concerned about my uncle." Chen An said.

"Will uncle come back to see Yaoyao in the future?" The little girl seemed to believe what Chen An said, and looked at Chen An with a pitiful look.

He reached out and touched the little girl's head. "Of course."

"Then let's hook and hook."

The little girl stretched out her little finger towards Chen An.

"Okay, hook hook, lying people will turn into puppies."

Chen An smiled and stretched out his little finger and hooked his little finger tightly with the little girl's little finger.

For a long time, for a long time.

The little girl was willing to let go of her fingers, and tears no longer flooded her eyes.

"When will uncle leave tomorrow? Yaoyao and his father will send you there."

"No need, uncle is used to being alone." Chen An shook his head and said.

"uncle……"

"What's the matter?"

"Tell Yaoyao another story."

"Okay, a long time ago..."

Finally, Chen An told more than one story. After a while, the little girl Yaoyao was trapped on his lap. At this time, he waved quietly to the uneasy maid at the door and asked her to carry the little girl back.

Seeing them disappearing from the corridor, Chen An felt a sense of loneliness in his heart. After years of this, perhaps the two of them could never meet again, just like him and Alex.

In the final analysis, he is just a passerby lost in various time and space.

Sooner or later, he will be used to parting, indifferent, and forgetting.

It's late at night.

The candlelight in Chen An's wing room was still lit, and a slight sound of footsteps suddenly came from afar. After a moment, someone knocked on the door.

"who?"

Chen An, who was lying on the bed, opened his eyes and asked coldly.

"The youngest one is the young lady who specially told you to send you midnight snacks before going to bed." The person outside the door replied respectfully.

"The door is not locked, just enter the door and put it on the table." Chen An really couldn't refuse the little girl's feelings.

After the door opened, a servant holding the food box lowered his head and walked in. He put the food box on the table and turned around and exited the door. He was cautious throughout the process.

Shortly after the servant left, Chen An turned up from the bed, then walked to the table and opened the food box.

As a result, his face changed instantly.

Because there is no so-called late-night snack in the food box, but only a note.

He took out the note with a serious expression, and saw a line of words written on the note.

Tang Xuanfu colluded with Jiangzhou soldiers and horse envoys to harm the heroes tomorrow.

Chen An's eyelids twitched. It was obvious that someone was informing him of this note. The villain who just gave him a midnight snack was probably the inside line of the other party who was put in Tang Xuanfu's mansion.

However.

Why did Tang Zhiyao collude with military envoys to assassinate him? Hasn’t he saved his life before? Why did he turn around and sell his daughter’s savior? Also, who is the person behind the scenes who sent the note warning? Is the content on the note really credible?

For a moment, Chen An's thoughts were in chaos.
