Song Xizhi returned to the Marquis's residence as usual and immediately went to sleep.
I don't know how long I slept before I heard the report from outside, saying that the Marquis of Anding had come to their courtyard in person.
Marquis An Ding was busy in the military camp every day and rarely came to their courtyard in person.
Upon hearing this, Song Xizhi recalled He Yunze's experience at the birthday banquet yesterday and felt somewhat guilty.

Upon hearing this, Marquis An Ding slowly frowned.
He seemed to sense something was amiss, and looked at Song Xizhi with a hesitant expression: "You guys... has something happened?"
"How come you seem to know nothing about him?"
