Chapter 17 Getting News

Qin Zixin put the candle on the table next to him, picked up a slightly smaller axe and chopped firewood. When the rooster in the Imperial Diet Bureau crowed for the first time, Qin Zixin finally finished chopping all the firewood.

"I'm so tired", Qin Zixin didn't care about the palm that was ground up with several blood blisters, and fell asleep in the room where the firewood was piled up.

"Qin Zixin is in the Silk Embroidery Bureau, is what you said true?" Xue Lingqi threw the gun in his hand to the guards on the side.

"Back to the prince, it's true." Qingping replied, why did his master insist on looking for the daughter of a criminal minister?

"Qingping, you come with me to the Silk Embroidery Bureau." After Xue Lingqi finished speaking, he took a step and walked out.

"Alright, you can continue to work in the embroidery room."

Aunt Song went to the Imperial Catering Bureau early in the morning to check whether Qin Zixin had finished chopping firewood, it seemed that this woman was not as easy to deal with as the pampered young lady of ordinary people, and she had to make another plan.

"Yes, Auntie." Qin Zixin shrunk his injured hand into his wide sleeve and walked towards the Silk Embroidery Bureau.

"Yo, this wood-splitter is back." Yang Wan saw Qin Zixin who entered the door, and her heart was happy.

"Purple Heart, are you alright?" Ah Tao pulled Qin Zixin over.

"I'm fine, just a little firewood, it's not hard for me." Qin Zixin smiled, yes, how could she be defeated by this little difficulty?

"Is Qin Zixin here? My aunt told you to go to the front hall quickly, saying that someone had summoned you. A little palace maid went to the embroidery room and said.

"Okay, I'll be right here." In response to the arrival, Qin Zixin got down from his show.

"Purple Heart, you have to be careful." Tao admonished.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine." With that, Qin Zixin followed the little palace maid to the front hall.

"Qin Zixin, don't you hurry up to meet the Fifth Prince!" Aunt Song couldn't help but remind when she saw Qin Zixin looking at Xue Lingqi in a daze.

"Alright, you go down." Xue Lingqi said to Aunt Song on the side.

"Slaves obey!" Aunt Song glanced at Qin Zixin and withdrew.

"Slave maid, meet the five princes." Qin Zixin came back to his senses and saluted, this saw seemed to be a lot stranger, and their royal people couldn't see through it.

"Purple Heart, why are you so outside? It's great to see that you're okay haode alive! Xue Lingqi grabbed Qin Zixin's shoulder and said.

"Thanks to the prince, I'm not dead yet." Qin Zixin gently retreated.

"You, I'm sorry, the matter of the Prime Minister's Mansion is not something I want to see, but."

Xue Lingqi looked at the cold Qin Zixin, and felt unspeakably uncomfortable in his heart, he didn't want such a result when he came here.

"By the way, on the way to send the people from the Prime Minister's Mansion to the frontier, your brother is missing, probably, he escaped."

Xue Lingqi clenched his fists, he was in charge of escorting, but he didn't want to let the sickly-looking kid escape halfway.

"What do you say? Brother Wuchen, he fled! Qin Zixin's eyes lit up instantly when he heard the news.

"Xue Lingqi, you make it clear. Yes! ”

Because she was too excited, Qin Zixin grabbed Xue Lingqi's sleeve, but she didn't want to forget the blood blisters in her palm, and she jumped up in pain.

"What's wrong with your hand? It's Aunt Song, right? ”

Xue Lingqi grabbed Qin Zixin's hands, looking at the large and small purple blood bubbles in his palms, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes.

"No, it's not, it's because I'm too anxious to work like this." Qin Zixin withdrew her hand.

"I'll go and discuss with the emperor and transfer you to a more relaxed place, you can bear with it for a while."

Xue Lingqi withdrew his hanging hands, this Qin Zixin seemed to be very close, but in fact it was very far away.

"Brother Wuchen didn't die, and he didn't go to the frontier, he must have returned."

Qin Zixin didn't remember what she said to Xue Lingqi afterward, and now she only had one thought in her heart, that is, she had to find Yue Wuchen.

"Zixin, you're back, I heard that the Fifth Prince summoned you." Ah Tao ran up when she saw Qin Zixin coming back.

"Maybe, it's called for interrogation, hehe." Yang Wan raised her hand lightly and inserted the embroidery needle on the freshly embroidered haode butterfly.

"What are you arguing about, don't you hurry up to work, you want to be punished, don't you?" Aunt Song shouted loudly.

"Yes, Auntie. Let's go, let's go. Qin Zixin took Ah Tao's hand and walked towards the embroidery table.

"Ah Tao, are you homesick?" Qin Zixin turned her head and asked Ah Tao, who was sleeping next to her.

"Of course I thought about it, my home is in Yuzhou, when I was fourteen years old, my father was seriously ill, and my mother sent me to the palace without anything to do, hoping to add some household to the family."

Ah Tao thought that she remembered the scene at that time, and she was a little sad.

"So, is your father better now?" Qin Zixin held Ah Tao's hand. "Well, it's much better, although I've been taking medicine, it's been delaying for more than two years." Tao smiled softly.

"Yes, alive, always haode." Qin Zixin's eyes gradually moistened.

"Purple Heart, you, I'm sorry." Ah Tao found that her words seemed to be a little too much, Qin Zixin had lost her father now.

"Silly girl, it's okay, go to sleep." Qin Zixin clenched Ah Tao's hand.
