Chapter 235: A Blank Letter

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chu Qingzhi effortlessly obtained the secret letter from Yang Jingwen.

No one would have thought that Yang Jingwen would hide the secret letter in her undergarment.

Chu Qingzhi took the secret letter under Yang Jingwen’s frightened gaze. “Don’t worry. You’re Tong Yujie’s sister. We are on the same side. I won’t harm you.”

Yang Jingwen closed her eyes with resignation. She had tried her best to protect the secret letter but failed. “How can you be sure that I’m Tong Yujie’s sister?”

“This has nothing to do with me.” Chu Qingzhi only wanted to know what she wanted to know. “How did you become the princess’s personal maid?”

Yang Jingwen’s lips trembled as she said, “I’m a secret guard nurtured by the empress. I’m in charge of the princess’s safety.”

Chu Qingzhi sized up Yang Jingwen. No wonder she felt that this girl didn’t look like a palace maid. “Since you are a secret guard, why did you marry in her place? Also, why is the secret letter in your hands?”

Yang Jingwen was also helpless. “The princess drugged all of us and ran away. In order to save our lives, everyone suggested that I replace her and look for the princess at the same time.”

“As for the secret letter, besides being the empress’s person, I’m also the emperor’s person.”

Chu Qingzhi was speechless.

It turned out that she was a double agent. Moreover, she was at the level where she was entrusted to carry a secret letter. Chu Qingzhi quite admired the girl in front of her.

“You’re so powerful. How did you get caught by Wan Zhilin?”

Yang Jingwen found that she couldn’t stop herself from answering the ordinary-looking young man in front of her. “We have a spy planted by Wan Zhilin in our team, and Wan Zhilin is in charge of managing all the assassins in the northern border. No matter how powerful and smart I am, I’m not his match.”

Chu Qingzhi patted Yang Jingwen’s shoulder. “Rest. If you can forget the past, forget it. There’s nothing wrong with being Tong Yujie’s sister.”

Yang Jingwen looked straight at Chu Qingzhi and suddenly said, “I want Li Yuanshao.”

Chu Qingzhi was about to leave when she stopped. “What do you mean?”

Yang Jingwen said solemnly, “I want to be his princess consort. Hero, if you help me, 1’11 tell you some more secrets.”

Chu Qingzhi’s impression of this girl plummeted. “You like Li Yuanshao? Then are you planning to betray the An Huai Kingdom?”

Yang Jingwen said calmly, “The An Huai Kingdom is not my mother country to begin with. I’m just being used. Now that I’m back in the Daling Dynasty, what does the An Huai Kingdom have to do with me?!”

Chu Qingzhi added, “Miss, if Li Yuanshao likes you too, then I encourage you to be his princess consort. If he doesn’t like you… you’d better not seek humiliations.”

Yang Jingwen obviously did not expect Chu Qingzhi to persuade her. She looked at Chu Qingzhi in a daze.

“But I like Li Yuanshao.”

“A year ago, 1 came to the Daling Dynasty to do something and was injured. He was the one who covered for me and asked his people to treat my injuries. Otherwise, I would be dead now.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled at Yang Jingwen. “In that case, 1 wish you success.”

Yang Jingwen also smiled. “Thank you.”

“By the way, there’s another question.”

“Please do.”

“Why didn’t you give the letter to Wan Zhilin?”

“Wan Zhilin didn’t capture me for the secret letter. Besides, the Lord of the Northern Border probably doesn’t know that Wan Zhilin captured me.”

“Understood!”

Back in her room, Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong shared the news with each other. Then, Chu Qingzhi handed the secret letter to Tang Jinghong.

The seal on the secret letter had not been touched, and the letter had not been opened.

Tang Jinghong tore open the envelope and took out the letter. However, the letter… was blank.

Well…

Chu Qingzhi checked the letter carefully. “There’s really no words on the paper. Jinghong, are we being played?!”

“Qingzhi, this doesn’t seem to be fake.” Tang Jinghong analyzed carefully. “On the night we went to save them, the An Huai Kingdom sent many experts to Wan Zhilin’s mansion and there was a fierce fight between the two sides. If it was a blank letter, there was no need for them to go to such length.”

Chu Qingzhi thought about it carefully. “That’s true.”

“Wait, Jinghong. Why didn’t the emperor of the An Huai Kingdom tell the Lord of the Northern Border that Yang Jingwen was captured by Wan Zhilin?”

Tang Jinghong thought for a moment. “There’s only one possibility…”

The two of them said in unison, “Those experts weren’t sent by the emperor.”

The two of them discussed for a while. Suddenly, Chu Qingzhi’s gaze landed on the envelope…

Who said that letters had to be written on paper?

She took the envelope and brushed it with her palm. Under the effect of the spell, a line of words appeared on the back of the envelope.

“Jinghong, look at this.”

Tang Jinghong took the envelope in surprise and pulled Chu Qingzhi over to hug her. “Qingzhi, you’re really smart.”

“See what it says.”

The letter said, “There’s a list in the princess’ dowry. It’s a sincere gift from me to the Lord of the Northern Border.”

Everything was going smoothly for them, but not so for the Lord of the Northern Border.

The Lord of the Northern Border slapped Wan Zhilin’s face and was furious. “Didn’t you say that the water prison is foolproof? Where is the prisoner?”

“They were saved by that pair of junior and senior brothers.” Wan Zhilin was also very angry. He had been in charge of assassins for so long and had never made such a mistake.

His dignity and pride were first trampled by Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong, and then by that pair of junior and senior brothers.

The Lord of the Northern Border had a headache at the mention of the two. He spoke with a hint of anger. “Why did those two save Wang Xingming?”

Wan Zhilin knelt on the ground. “I don’t know.”

The Lord of the Northern Border took a few deep breaths and suppressed the violence in his heart. “I’ll give you three days. If you can’t find those two, you don’t have to come to see me ever again.”

Wan Zhilin replied with a trembling voice, “Yes, Your Highness.”

As soon as he left, a figure came to the study. “Your Highness, the princess’s wedding team was all killed in the valley behind the Heavenly Snow Mountain. The princess and her personal maid are missing!”

The Lord of the Northern Border flared up. He threw everything on the table to the ground. “Find them! Send everyone out to find them!”

“Yes, Your Highness.” The figure retreated.

The Lord of the Northern Border shouted, “Guard!”

The guard walked in. “Your Highness.”

The Lord of the Northern Border suppressed his anger and asked, “Is the ransom ready?”

The guard immediately replied, “Your Highness, it’s ready.”

The Lord of the Northern Border said darkly, “Go and tell Shi Zonghao that he has to bring my son back. If he can’t, tell him not to come back.”

The guard trembled. “Yes, Your Highness..”
