Mixed in the crowd, Chu Qingzhi knocked on the stone with her hammer. Not only was it a silver ore, but it also contained a lot of silver.

“Jinghong, this is a silver mine with a high amount of silver. According to the current level of exploitation, 1 think they have mined at least 20,000 catties of silver.”

After Tang Jinghong heard this, he was silent for a moment before saying, “Qingzhi, let’s go.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded. “Yes.”

The two of them quickly left the silver mine and took the two people they had knocked unconscious with them.

Tang Jinghong called three secret guards over. Chu Qingzhi changed two of them into the looks of the two unconscious men and asked them to enter the silver mine as undercover agents to investigate the silver mine, especially where the silver was sent to.

They left a secret guard to get rid of the two unconscious men.

Then, the two of them left.

In the northern border city.

Although a war was imminent, the people were unaware of it and the city was as busy as ever.

Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong walked on the wide street and looked at the people coming and going. They even relaxed a little.

A five or six-year-old girl tugged at her mother’s sleeve. “Mother, 1 want to eat candied hawthorn.”

The mother smiled and said, “Alright, 1 will buy it for you.”

The mother and daughter walked past Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong with happy smiles on their faces.

Chu Qingzhi looked at them and smiled gently. As she watched the mother and daughter leave, she suddenly asked, “Jinghong, can we sneak into the military camp and assassinate the fake Lord of the Northern Border?”

Tang Jinghong understood what Chu Qingzhi wanted to do. He reached out to hold Chu Qingzhi’s hand and said slowly, “It’s too late.”

When the fake Lord of the Northern Border guessed their identities, he must have already started giving orders. Even if they could assassinate him, they could not take back his orders.

In the northern border, the soldiers listened to the Lord of the Northern Border.

As a general, Tang Jinghong knew very well that even if the general died, his subordinates would still complete his orders. This was their first duty as a soldier.

Besides, if the soldiers knew that the Lord of the Northern Border had been assassinated, it would arouse their emotions to avenge him.

As for exposing the identity of the fake Lord of the Northern Border, unless they could find the real Lord of the Northern Border and hard evidence, their words wouldn’t be convincing enough.

But the real Lord of the Northern Border would probably have been turned to dust long ago. Where could they find him?

Chu Qingzhi didn’t say anything else. “Let’s go find Wu Yaqing.”

Tang Jinghong nodded. “Ok.”

In the inn, Wu Yaqing, who had gone crazy from playing, was sleeping soundly. She had lived in restraint since she was young and had never been as free as she was now. These few days were the happiest for her.

Tang Jinghong stood in the corridor. Chu Qingzhi pushed the door open and entered. “Yaqing, Yaqing…”

Wu Yaqing was asleep and did not respond.

Chu Qingzhi walked to the bed and looked at Wu Yaqing, who was sleeping like a pig. “Yaqing, wake up.”

Wu Yaqing turned around and continued to sleep.

Chu Qingzhi laughed and leaned closer. “Yaqing, Hero Xiao Qing is back.”

Wu Yaqing immediately opened her eyes and sat up. When she saw Chu Qingzhi, she pounced over excitedly. “Hero Xiao Qing…”

Chu Qingzhi was caught off guard. “Yaqing, you’re going to strangle me to death.”

Wu Yaqing quickly let go of her and said, “Hero Xiao Qing, you’re finally back. 1 missed you so much.”

Chu Qingzhi patted Wu Yaqing’s back. “We came back to look for you as soon as we finished dealing with our matters.”

Wu Yaqing let go of Chu Qingzhi and looked up at her. “I thought you guys abandoned me and left.”

Chu Qingzhi sat by the bed and pinched Wu Yaqing’s face. She said as if she was talking to her young sister, “I said I would come back to look for you. Why would I abandon you?”

Wu Yaqing was in high spirits. “Hero Xiao Qing, are we going somewhere else to uphold justice?”

Chu Qingzhi looked at Wu Yaqing and pondered for a moment before saying, “Yaqing, we are going to uphold justice, but we need your help this time. As long as you write a letter, you can save the lives of tens of thousands of people.”

“Me?” Wu Yaqing pointed at her nose in disbelief. “How can I be so capable?”

“You can.” Chu Qingzhi took her coat and put it on for Wu Yaqing. She pulled her off the bed and called Tang Jinghong in. The three of them sat at the table.

Wu Yaqing looked at their serious expressions and was a little afraid. “Don’t scare me. I’m very timid.”

Tang Jinghong poured a cup of tea for Wu Yaqing and said slowly, “Princess Yun Hua, please have some tea.”

Wu Yaqing’s expression froze. She had disguised herself very well. How did they find out?

Chu Qingzhi said gently, “You’re Princess Yun Hua, right?”

After a while, Wu Yaqing took a deep breath and gave in. “How did you know?”

Chu Qingzhi said, “A lot of things happened during this period of time. We found out by accident.”

Wu Yaqing’s expression was no longer as happy as before. She looked at them dejectedly. “Are you going to send me back to the An Huai Kingdom?” Her mother must have offered a high reward. There was no reason for them to refuse a handsome reward.

Chu Qingzhi hurriedly said, “No, we won’t interfere with where you want to stay. We just want you to write a letter.”

Wu Yaqing perked up a little. “Are you really not going to interfere?”

Chu Qingzhi said affirmatively, “Positive.”

Wu Yaqing agreed. “Alright, what letter do you want me to write? Let me make it clear first. I won’t write a letter that harms An Huai Kingdom. 1 won’t write it even if you beat me to death.”

Tang Jinghong’s expression was solemn. “Princess Yun Hua, the letter we asked you to write is not going to harm the An Huai Kingdom, but to save it!”

When Wu Yaqing heard this, her expression immediately turned solemn. “What do you mean?”

Tang Jinghong told her about the Lord of the Northern Border. He also said that the Lord of the Northern Border might join forces with the An Huai Kingdom to fight the Dating Dynasty…

Wu Yaqing’s breathing quickened. “The Lord of the Northern Border is fake? Then, isn’t he using my father?”

Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong nodded at her.

Wu Yaqing was very protective of the people of her country. She immediately decided to write a letter to the king and queen of An Huai Kingdom, telling them not to listen to the Lord of the Northern Border,

After writing the letter, Wu Yaqing looked up and sized up the two of them. “Can you tell me who you are?”

They did not know how the princess would react after knowing their identities. It was better not to take that risk.

Chu Qingzhi said, “Princess, can we tell you after this matter is over?”

Wu Yaqing saw that the two of them were people who worked for the country and the people. After thinking for a moment, she agreed. “You can’t go back on our word.”

Chu Qingzhi said seriously, “We won’t go back on our word.”

Tang Jinghong took two letters and left the inn. He summoned a secret guard and asked him to send the letters to the An Huai Kingdom..
