"You're saying the one who killed Chen You was that Fang Han?"
In the Outer City, within the Qin Household's main hall.
Qin Tai, the household head seated in the place of honor, furrowed his brow tightly, his tone carrying a measure of scrutiny and doubt.
Qin Tai was past fifty, with sharply defined features.
