Chapter 16: Visiting

Zhou Xi leaned in immediately when the young master called him.

Zhou Gu instructed Zhou Xi in a whisper, "Starting from today, I want you to find a person for me. This person is a woman; said to be a fisherwoman from a farming family, carrying a dagger of the crown prince. The dagger is a unique piece by Master Carver Zhang Chengming. The hilt is covered in auspicious cloud patterns and when heated, reveals an inscription of the Crown Prince's name. It should not be hard to recognize."

Zhou Xi immediately asked, "Are there other features? Like a portrait or something?"

Zhou Gu shook his head, "No."

Zhou Xi felt troubled, "This might be difficult to find."

"But you must find her. I promised the Crown Prince."

Zhou Xi nodded, understanding now that it was the Crown Prince's instructions to find this person.

Zhou Gu added, "Keep this a secret, don't make it detected."

Zhou Xi acknowledged.
