Brother Guan,
Listen to me—ignore that "benefactor" of yours. Don't even think about assassinating old General Zhang. Hexi cannot afford more chaos! If you insist on foolishness, don't blame me for turning against you. That "benefactor" is just using a past favor to make you his weapon. Damned nobility still dreaming of owning people as slaves—to hell with that!
I'm about to return to Liangzhou with old General Zhang. We must meet and drink like old times. These years with the Guiyi Army, rules are too strict—Raging Tides forbidden from drinking. Ha! Better to die free!
Last year I saw a vajra phurba at the temple, said to ward off evil and cleanse the spirit. It reminded me of the calming chant you mumbled drunk in the Qilian Mountains, so I bought one for you—a gift celebrating your escape from death.
Don't you dare do anything stupid. I still want to share more drinks with you!
