Chen Yi naturally did not know Xiao Jinghong's movements. But he knew that within two or three days, Xiao Jinghong would inevitably return.
The reason was simple. Liu Hong's hair had turned white overnight, and he no longer involved himself in government affairs; he was already like a grasshopper in late autumn—he wouldn't be jumping around for much longer. Zhu Hao's situation was much the same. Furthermore, the Capital Prefecture was closer to Guangyuan County. If the Imperial Court sent people to Shu State, their first stop would definitely be Guangyuan. Once the dust settled in Guangyuan, Xiao Jinghong would return to Shu State to oversee the Xiao Family and prevent Liu Hong from launching a counterattack.
The only thing Chen Yi wasn't sure about was who would get the credit for bringing down Zhu Hao.
"I figure there's a higher possibility that my elder brother Chen Yunfan will take the top credit.
