Fifty-four, twelve

"What about the two sentinels? Can the signal be sent? Qin Mingruo leaned lazily back in his chair. When I returned to the palace yesterday, it was another ceremony, but I was a little tired.

"Within three hours, they couldn't wake up. The Twelve Governors replied. About ten miles outside the city. "Morrowind, dressed in black, stood behind the screen.

"Out of the palace." Qin Mingruo suddenly opened his eyes. There was clarity in his eyes.

"No."

Qin Mingruo changed into ordinary people's clothes, took the waist card to leave the palace, and went out of the palace unimpeded all the way in the name of buying some jewelry for the princess.

The bustling streets and noisy crowds made Qin Mingruo a little in a trance, he hadn't come out like this for too long, Qin Mingruo didn't have much time, so he didn't dare to stay longer, so he hurried out of the city.

A pavilion was built on a river, and a man in white was standing in the pavilion playing a flute. The sound of the flute is melodious and vast, as if to bring people into the artistic conception of mountains and flowing water. Qin Mingruo walked on the bamboo raft, "Morning breeze, you stay on the shore." ”

Morrowind hesitated for a moment, but still responded, "No." ”

The boatman held up the bamboo pole, and the boat sailed a long way.

"Good tune. Yu Pavilion Master. Qin Mingruo stepped into the pavilion and called softly. The man's flute stopped, and he turned his head to look at Qin Mingruo. The man looked to be in his thirties, and his appearance was really ordinary, which could only be called plain. The man put away his flute. Sit on the floor. "Princess Mingruo, please be seated."

Qin Mingruo also sat down. There was a table between the two, and the man poured two cups of tea. "I don't know what Princess Mingruo is looking for?"

"I want to find out about someone."

"Who?"

"When the new little boy next to Lord Zheng, the imperial captain. I want to know where he came from. I want to know everything about him. ”

The man's face was embarrassed, "Princess Mingruo also knows that the Twelve Mansions have always been reluctant to accept the affairs of the imperial court. ”

"I know. This makes it difficult for you. ”

"So be it. I'll find out for myself. Count me personally helping you, it has nothing to do with the Twelve Mansions. After all, the man didn't refuse Qin Mingruo.

"Thank you to the Pavilion Master, I will pay double the honorarium. This is the deposit. Qin Mingruo launched a stack of silver tickets.

"I'll help you personally, you don't have to."

"It's better to collect it. If not, I'll find out for myself. Qin Mingruo pushed the silver ticket a few points further, "Then I'll leave first." In the pavilion master, there will be a period later. ”

"I'll send you a message as soon as the results are available." The man was still sitting on the ground.

"Good. It's hard work. Qin Mingruo bowed slightly, walked on the bamboo raft again, and left.

The man picked up the teacup and sipped it slowly. In all these years, this is the first time she has offered to help. I've known her for three years. At that time, she was still a child, and in the face of her seriously injured self, she was not afraid at all, she only helped herself bandage indifferently, the wound still hurts now, and she doesn't understand it. He was rescued, and during the healing period, the two almost did not speak. She never asked where she came from, why she was hurt, and always looked cold. Later, even if she knew her identity, nothing changed, and for her, it probably didn't matter who she saved. If I hadn't given her a birthday gift every year, I'm afraid she would have cut off contact a long time ago. The man smiled helplessly.

"Pavilion Master." The boatman returned.

"Let's go." The man put away the silver ticket on the table.
