The entries documented when purchases were made for the second prince and how much was paid. "Keep this safe for me; I shall need it later. Oh, and these silver coins too."

He dropped five silver coins in Wuxin's palm. Wuxin wrapped them in a handkerchief so they would not get lost.

"I still don't understand why Your Highness asked for the silver coins that Second Prince paid with."
