In a tavern within the city, at this moment, the private room was filled with a flurry of toasts and laughter. Zhangsun Sheng and Hua Wushang sat opposite each other, both enjoying the delicious wine. Zhangsun Sheng's face was flushed with drunkenness, a look of triumph painted on his features.
"Brother Hua, you are truly impressive, managing to completely ensnare Dugu Wu, the Ninth Prince."
"President Zhangsun exaggerates. Without your formidable assistance, things would not have gone so smoothly," replied Hua Wushang as he took a sip from his cup.
It was now deep into the night, and the streets of Chu City were wrapped in silence, making the night seem exceptionally long.
