Soon, a rather heavy and slow melody, with a hint of gloom, echoed in the room.
Although Wang Yue and Shi A behind Liu Hong did not understand music, they also sensed something unusual. They then looked at Xin Yue, who was playing the instrument, with a wary expression on their faces.
In contrast, Liu Hong and Xi Zhicai closed their eyes and listened carefully to every syllable.
Just as Liu Hong was fully enjoying the music, the woman named Lian Yue, after leaving Cuihonglou, did not go to the Royal Winery, but instead went to a house not far away.
In the living room of the house, a middle-aged man sat at the head of the table with his eyes slightly closed.

As he finished speaking, Steward Li's expression changed, and a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.
Then Steward Li looked at Lian Yue and asked urgently, "What else is going on?"
Upon hearing Steward Li's question, Lian Yue quickly replied:
"Also, the guards around him all seem to be top-notch military personnel."
Especially one of the middle-aged swordsmen, although his aura was restrained and his martial prowess was imperceptible, his intuition told his subordinates that if they hadn't spoken to them earlier, there would probably be few in the entire Han Dynasty who could rival him.
"A master swordsman in the army, a middle-aged swordsman?! It's Wang Yue...!"
