Chapter 1610 The Dangerous Thing Is the Human Heart

"Yongzhou City is not dangerous, but people's hearts are dangerous." Chen Changli said earnestly, "Third Brother, you must know that people's hearts are the most uncontrollable."

"And you also said that a small number of people wanted to leave and did not want to stay in Yongzhou City."

When Chen Changli said this, a complex look flashed across his eyes, but he looked at Chen Hai calmly.

Seeing his face full of dissatisfaction, he couldn't help feeling heavy.

But then she thought again that Chen Hai was worried about her and was willing to be honest in front of her. He had made a lot of progress compared to before.

So if you explain things to him nicely and teach him a little, you will always be able to teach him well.

With this in mind, Chen Changli's words became gentler, enough to calm people's anxiety.

"Put yourself in their shoes. I would actually be the same as them. After all, it is better to control your life in your own hands than to give it to an outsider. Whether it is life or death, it is up to you to decide."

"But most of the people in Yongzhou City don't have such an idea. Even if they do, they don't have the ability to leave."

"Since I have accepted Yongzhou City and recruited some people from them to defend Yongzhou City, I should take on some responsibilities instead of treating them as a burden just to survive."

Upon hearing these words, Chen Hai couldn't help but clench his hands into fists that made a creaking sound.

Chen Changli saw his little action and shook his head slightly: "Do you think my behavior is stupid?"

Chen Hai was surprised and said quickly: "I didn't think so, I just think it's not worth it."

"It's not about whether it's worth it or not, it's only about whether you're willing or not." Chen Changli emphasized this, "Third brother, now I am very willing to protect them and keep them out of the war."

Chen Hai's eyes turned red: "But..."

Chen Changli knew what he was going to say and interrupted him, "No buts, you just need to remember that there is gain and loss, and not all good things in this world will happen to me."

He sighed and said, "If I don't make some efforts, how can I gain everyone's recognition? If everyone doesn't recognize me, the Ninth Prince would have already conquered Yongzhou City, so there is no way he would retreat."

When Chen Hai heard this, he felt like he was struck by lightning.

He had never thought about this, but now listening to Chen Changli's sigh, he was shocked to realize that everything Chen Changli has now is the result of his hard work, and it is not something he can have by doing nothing.

"I'm stupid, Dad. I'm sorry. I shouldn't say such things in front of you." Chen Hai couldn't help but think of what he and Chen Ping had done, and a feeling of guilt suddenly surged in his heart.

Chen Changli smiled faintly and said, "I am really happy that you think of me. Besides, I am just an ordinary person with my own selfish desires."

"So when the situation in Yongzhou City gets bad, I will arrange for you brothers to leave first out of selfish motives, so you don't have to blame yourself."

Chen Hai only felt that Chen Changli was comforting him, and the tears that had been held back for a long time fell unconsciously, "I..."

"Third brother, where have you been? I have something to tell you, come out quickly!" At this time, Chen Ping's voice came in.

Chen Hai couldn't help rolling his eyes when he heard his anxious tone: "Brother, why are you in such a hurry?"

Upon hearing Chen Hai's words, Chen Ping rushed in. Seeing Chen Changli was also there, he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, "Dad, why are you here too?"

"This is where I'm temporarily discussing things with people." Chen Changli said calmly, "Boss, am I a monster? Why do you look so scared of me?"

"No way! Don't talk nonsense!" Chen Ping was indeed a little afraid of Chen Changli, because it was Chen Changli who had cruelly taught him a lesson, which made the Sixth Prince abandon him.

"That's better." Seeing that he didn't dare to look at him, Chen Changli raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "You and Lao San go and get busy."

Chen Ping was relieved when he heard this: "Old Third, did you hear that? Come with me quickly."

Chen Hai looked helpless: "Brother, you'd better be busy. If you are fine and I followed you for nothing, I will never forgive you."

He said this, but he quickly caught up with Chen Ping.

The two brothers have been through thick and thin together for a year, and their relationship is no longer as strained as before, so even if Chen Ping has nothing to do, Chen Hai will not be angry, and at most he will say a few words to him.

Chen Ping knew this very well, so he didn't say anything extra and just led him out.

Seeing the two brothers getting along happily, Chen Changli's thoughts could not help but become confused, and he whispered, "I wonder how the second brother is doing. Did the prince take them to escape from Meizhou?"

After arriving in Yongzhou City, apart from hearing news about the Crown Prince from the Eighth Prince and Old Lady Shang, Chen Changli seemed to have completely cut off contact with the outside world and had no idea of ​​the Crown Prince's current situation.

No matter how worried he was, he could only ignore that feeling, otherwise he would start to have wild thoughts and would not be able to relieve himself.

He took a deep breath secretly, then exhaled it as foul air. Then Chen Changli adjusted his mood and let the person who wanted to inquire about the situation in Mingyue Mountain come in.

"General Chen, our people disguised themselves as mountain people and went to Mingyue Mountain to investigate the situation, but they found that there was an army stationed there."

"Army? What is a flag?" Chen Changli had bad thoughts in his mind after hearing this.

"It looks like the flag of the Ninth Prince." At this point, the man's expression was not very good. "General Chen, I suspect that Li Keyi's brother is guarding the iron mine in Mingyue Mountain."

"Li Keyong!" Chen Changli had heard of his name. It was said that he was the most outstanding military general. Because the emperor was wary of military generals, he chose to guard the border.

Li Keyi was not as good as him, but relying on his connections, he was also doing well on the border.

But through what Lin Jing said, Chen Changli was sure that Li Keyi gained some fame because of his brother.

It would be easy to deal with him, but Li Keyong relied on his own strength to be stationed on the border for many years. He also secretly helped the Ninth Prince under the emperor's nose, allowing the Ninth Prince to escape from Luoyang City smoothly.

If such a person went all out, Chen Changli didn't think he could suppress him. However, he didn't expect that this person did not show up in the siege, but ran to Mingyue Mountain.

It seems that Wen Baicao chose the Ninth Prince, so much so that she told the Ninth Prince about such an important matter as the iron mine and asked his uncle to guard it.

"Li Keyong is a very capable general, and he has many loyal lieutenants under him. If they join forces, they will be able to capture Yongzhou City."

"But for some reason this time, only Li Keyi came to attack the city."

When the man said this, he looked at Chen Changli with some concern. He saw that Chen Changli had a frown on his face, as if he had heard what he said. He was very worried and his heart was in his throat.

"The Ninth Prince is determined to take Yongzhou City. General, if we cannot defend Yongzhou City, I'm afraid we will die without a burial place."
