Need to wash these with me [Bonus chapter]

Mingquan opened the window slightly and looked out of the second floor of the Nanxi pavilion.

"Your Highness, the merchant from South comes after three months. From the tip-off I received, Merchant Xiang smuggle the ivory and sell them in the black market," Li Tian informed Mingquan.

They saw Xiang Qu entering with his men. Xiang Qu was more than six feet tall, so many vendors in the pavilion, looked shorter before him.

"We need to catch him red-handed," Mingquan said and slowly closed the window.

"They will be sitting next to this room. The arrangement was made last night to make sure the conversation can be heard," Li Tian stated. Mingquan brought his hand forward. His long sleeves touched his knees and he sat on the floor chair.

He brought the teacup to his mouth and sipped a little. They heard heavy footsteps outside the room.

Mingquan placed the teacup on the table and heard the door open of the adjacent room.
