Zhou Gu was reflecting on the recent arrival of a letter from the Crown Prince, wondering when the Prince began to miss him so often, probably about the matter of finding that woman.
He received the letter from Zhou Xi, opened it, and found the letter to be quite concise. It conveyed two messages, one was that he had already taken action against Jiangzhou's Inspector, Jiang Sheng, and the Inspector Residence would soon be penalized. The Crown Prince was planning on letting Governor Su Xu succeed Jiang Sheng as Inspector. Another message was that he had found the person he was looking for, so Zhou Gu didn't need to continue the search.
Zhou Gu folded the letter, waved good-bye to Zhou Xi, who then withdrew.
