In the snowy winter, except for a little snow on the treetops, the rest of the house has been cleared cleanly. There are wintersweets on both sides of the road, which looks particularly beautiful.

After walking for an unknown amount of time, when Sheng Changan was wondering if they were being deliberately delayed, they finally arrived at the destination.

"Please come in, Lord Sheng. The rest of you can just wait outside with me." The butler lowered his head and gestured inside.

"Okay, but the doctor next to me has superb medical skills. Lord Liu has not recovered yet, and I am really worried. Why don't I let him take a look at Lord Liu," Sheng Changan said softly.

Before the butler could answer, someone came out and said, "Master, you have agreed. Master Sheng, please follow me."

As soon as I entered the room, a wave of heat came out. In such cold weather, the people inside were only wearing two thin clothes.

There was no trace of smoke from the charcoal in the brazier. In such a large room, there were no less than twenty braziers within the visible area to her naked eyes.

"Master Sheng has come all the way here and come to my house. I wonder what advice you have for me." He looked older and was said to be nearly sixty years old.

But apart from his thin figure, you can't tell his age at all. There is not a single white hair on his head. Perhaps because he has been bedridden for a long time, his face is a little pale.

His nose is a typical hooked nose, and his eyes are a pair of fox eyes. Although he is getting older, he can still see the charm of his youth.

"Please forgive me, sir. I was in a hurry and just happened to hear about General Liu. I felt that there was no time to delay, so I made such an offensive move."

Sheng Changan seemed unable to hear the displeasure in the tone of the person in front of him, and spoke to himself.

"So in your opinion, what did this thief want to do by capturing my son?" He leaned back in his chair, his eyes half open.

"Perhaps he has some conditions to discuss with His Excellency. Of course, this is just my guess. The longer it takes, the more likely his life will be in danger." Sheng Chang'an said softly and prolonged his voice.

She was clearly threatening someone, but she downplayed it as if it had nothing to do with her.

His eyes were sharp, flashing with cold light as he looked at this ignorant person. "Master Sheng, you are really brave."

"Your Excellency, you are joking. I just want to take my people back to my own place safely. I don't want to die in this capital."

This time, Sheng Changan straightened his back and looked at him calmly. "Too many people have died in the capital recently. I am just an ordinary person. It is natural for me to be afraid of death."

"That's all?" He clearly didn't believe it.

"Your Excellency has summoned me all the way to the capital. You must be well aware of what I want. It would be better to speak frankly. You always use such embarrassing actions, which really embarrasses me."

The woman's eyebrows were slightly lowered, and she looked particularly gentle, but she said bold words.

"Lord Sheng, if you have something to say, please just tell me. Why do you have to disturb my father? Do you look down on me?" Liu Zhao walked in hurriedly with snow on his shoulders.

"I dare not, but it is too difficult to meet Lord Liu," Sheng Changan said with a hint of meaning.

"Liu Zhao, since you are here, please have a good talk with Lord Sheng and make sure that your good-for-nothing elder brother is brought back to me unharmed." He put down the teacup, his tone calm but with an air of certainty.

"Don't worry, father. Zhao'er will definitely bring big brother back." He bowed and waited for the others to leave before looking at Sheng Chang'an viciously. He squeezed out a few words from his mouth, "Master Sheng is really brave."

His murderous intent was barely concealed, and his right hand was clenched tightly, as if he was ready to strike at any moment.
