Li Yan shook his head after listening, "As a person, I believe in suppressing violence with violence, but once I'm set on a path, I'm accused of acting recklessly. I can take joy in battling thousands, but to ask me to be a healer of men, truly, I lack such skill."
Lady Hu tilted her face up, "The matter I'm requesting, only someone of your caliber has the ability to accomplish it."
"Then let's hear it. Wang Sheng and I share bonds stronger than life itself, I won't hesitate to help if I can."
Li Yan spoke with a steady voice.
At this juncture, Lady Hu suddenly became coy, "I must first apologize to Lord Governor, and if what I'm about to say incites your anger, please do not take it out on Shenglang. It's merely my unfiltered speech, without anyone else's instigation."
Li Yan narrowed his eyes, "Just say it."
Lady Hu lingered for a moment, gathering her courage internally, reasoning that if she didn't speak now, she would be unable to do so after this crucial moment passed.
