"Betting on whether the Shen family will assassinate Lord Zhao?"
Inside the swaying carriage, the Shipping Governor hesitated for a moment, then asked hesitantly.
Zhao Douan languidly leaned back on the soft cushion, murmuring softly, "To be precise, it's whether or not I will encounter an assassination."
