The kidnapper decided to take apart the letter and tell Zhao Qiang that if he deceived himself, he would bear the consequences.

Then, he really opened it apart and was startled to see that the title of prime minister was indeed called at the beginning of the letter. Seeing him like this, Zhao Qiang confirmed his guess and sneered again.

The kidnappers looked at each other and lost their ideas for a moment.

The kidnapper's head had a cold sweat on his forehead. If the matter was not handled properly, his group of people would be doomed.

He gritted his teeth and glared at Zhao Qiang viciously and said, "Even if it is the Prime Minister's letter, it is in my hands now. What do you think you should do?"

Although Zhao Qiang was afraid, he still pretended to be calm and pretended to be calm and said, "If you return the letter now, I can plead for you in front of the Prime Minister, just saying that you don't know the importance of the letter, and you rob me by chance. Maybe you can still be slighted. If you are obsessed with it, once the Prime Minister investigates it, you will never have the chance to live."

The coachman didn't expect this scene to be.

The kidnappers began to discuss in a low voice, knowing that they were in great dilemma.

The kidnapper's eyes flashed, and after a moment, he raised his head and said, "How do we know that this letter was not forged by you to scare us?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Qiang took a step forward and said frankly: "What courage do I have and what ability do I have to forge the Prime Minister's letter? Furthermore, if you don't believe it, you can take the letter to the city to find a learned gentleman to identify the handwriting, or go directly to the Prime Minister's Office to surrender to see if it is true or false!"

Zhao Qiang said again, he didn't know that someone was coming to rob, so could he get a fake letter in advance?

These kidnappers became even more panicked.

The kidnapper's leader said that they were wrong and should not offend the prime minister. Let them go and send the letter to Zhao Qiang.

Zhao Qiang took the letter, but his face was still gloomy.

He snorted coldly: "You think you can get things done by just returning the letter to me so easily? How can such a good thing be done? Shouldn't you pay the price for making such a big mistake?"

The kidnapper's head looked bitter.

"We are just confused for a moment, so you can give up your hands. We have old friends and young masters, so we really don't dare to offend the Prime Minister again."

Zhao Qiang looked at him with anger.

"When you robbed, have you ever thought about the situation of the robbed person? If this letter delays, affects military information and leads to defeat, the lives of countless soldiers and the safety of the country will be destroyed. How can you afford to lose your lives?"

The kidnappers knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Please give you a way to live, and we are willing to be a cow and horse to atone for our sins."

Zhao Qiang pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Diet crime can be avoided, but living crime cannot be escaped. You need to choose half of the property you have obtained from robbery over the years to send to Jimin Hall in the city to help the poor people. In the future, you will protect the road for past merchants in this mountain forest. If you do any more evil deeds, I will tell the Prime Minister the whole thing. At that time, you will wait for the whole family to behead you."

The kidnappers nodded repeatedly.

"Thank you, we will do it."

When the kidnapper heard Zhao Qiang's words, he hurriedly said, "Sir, we are showing sincerity. Today, we robbed two passers-by. The money we obtained is here. We will return it all, just for forgiveness by lord."

As he said that, he signaled his subordinates to hand over several cloth bags.

Zhao Qiang took the cloth bag and took a rough look. There were a few ingots of silver and some scattered copper plates inside.

He nodded slightly.

"Hmph, this is still your cognitive view. Remember your promises. If you dare to violate them, you will definitely not forgive you."

"Don't worry, sir, we will never dare to commit again." The kidnappers responded in unison, all of whom felt relieved.

Zhao Qiang then turned around and said to the coachman: "Let's go."

The coachman responded, waved the whip, and the carriage slowly started and gradually disappeared at the end of the road.

The kidnappers looked at the carriage away and breathed a sigh of relief, secretly glad that they could escape today.

The coachman said admiringly: "Sir, you have taken this approach very well. It not only gives them the opportunity to correct their mistakes, but also gives them punishment."

Zhao Qiang sighed slightly: "Although they are robbers, they are all pitiful people. If they can correct their mistakes, it will be a good thing. I just hope that there will be no more twists and turns along the way and the letter will be delivered smoothly."

While waving the whip, the coachman said to Zhao Qiang admirably: "Master, I really didn't expect that you and the Prime Minister have such a relationship. You are so hiding it."

Zhao Qiang smiled slightly and said, "Brother, don't praise me like this. I was just entrusted to deliver a letter by chance, and I never thought I would encounter this disaster. I just hope that this letter will be delivered smoothly, so don't miss the big thing."

The coachman nodded repeatedly.

"That's natural. With you here, this letter will definitely be safe in the hands of the Prime Minister. Maybe the Prime Minister will reward you. Then don't forget that I will accompany you today."

Zhao Qiang smiled and said, "If I were so lucky, I would not have forgotten my elder brother's help today."

After saying that, both of them looked at each other and smiled. The carriage galloped on the road, moving forward in the distance with mission and hope.

Zhao Qiang looked at the scene of retreating outside the car window, and his heart was filled with pride.

He has always wandered in the darkness of life, doing things that are unfair and shameless, with a low status and no respect for others.

However, at this moment, he successfully saved the Prime Minister's letter under the threat of the robbers.

He understood that the weight of this letter may be related to the victory or defeat of the frontier, the peace of the people and the fate of the country.

Compared with his past experience of hiding his head and acting in secret, it is simply a difference.

Now, he truly felt that he was no longer the little person who could only live in the shadows, but had accomplished a noble thing that was of great significance to the country and the people.

This glory and sense of accomplishment were like the dawn of dawn, dispelling the long-standing haze in his heart and paving a new path full of hope and mission for him.

He suddenly began to reflect, should he do other legitimate business in the future?

Zhao Qiang's thoughts fluctuated with the bumps of the carriage.

The experience of protecting the Secretary of the Concubine seemed to open a door to a new world for him.

In this world, he can walk openly with wisdom and courage to participate in things that are beneficial to society and others.

On that day, Wenxuan came to visit Xi Yu.

As soon as they met, Wenxuan said with a smile: "Xi Yu, your move to establish a female official system is very impressive. Although it has not been fully implemented at the moment, this is an amazing beginning."

When Xi Yu heard this, he quickly responded humbly: "Don't praise like this. All of this is based on your opinions and arrangements. I am just implementing it briefly."

After hearing this, Wenxuan couldn't help laughing even more, and waved his hand and said, "It is rare to have such determination and action. If this system can be gradually improved in the future, it will definitely have a profound impact on the prefecture."

As night fell again, Shi Dami and Chen Shou came to the inn as usual.

Shi Dami looked solemn. After thinking for a long time, he decided to immediately submit a letter to King Hesheli.

He laid the paper, picked up the pen, and slowly wrote: "Your Majesty, I am fortunate to be unfair, and I have found the place where the princess is. Although this process has gone through twists and turns, I will finally gain something."

Then, he paused, as if he was considering the words, and continued to write.

"In addition, in order to ensure that Your Majesty's great cause is successful, I plan to find Xi Yu's birth date and eight characters. This may provide assistance to the subsequent events. I hope Your Majesty will know and wait for the good news."

After writing, Shi Dami carefully folded the letter and sealed it, just waiting for the sending of someone to whip to the palace tomorrow.

Shi Dami carefully put the letter into the envelope, showing a satisfied expression on her face.

He turned to look at Chen Shou and found that Chen Shou was looking at him with confusion.

Chen Shou was puzzled, but he couldn't ask directly, so he just observed silently.

After thinking about it for a while, Chen Shou felt that the more he thought about it, the more he felt that Shi Dami's letter must have been written to Hesheli, the king of the Abnormal Kingdom, and he must have been reporting on the progress of matters related to him. But when he thought of the sender, he couldn't help but frown and worry came to his heart.

That thief, with such a special identity and vulgar behavior, can such a person really take on this important task?

Will he have evil intentions in the middle of the road to hide or sell the letter to others? Or may he accidentally lose the letter because of his habit of stealing?

There are too many variables in this, and any situation may cause the message to be unable to be accurately conveyed, which will affect the progress of the entire plan.

The next morning, the sun shone on the street outside the inn. Shi Dami went out early and came to the delivery room. He found a reliable sender who looked like he was, gave some money, and after thousands of instructions, he handed the crucial letter to rest.

The two of them packed up and continued on the itinerary.

Along the way, Shi Dami turned around and asked Chen Shou: "Brother Chen, you guessed that our itinerary is almost time to go to Youzhou, right?"

Chen Shou looked up at the road ahead, thought for a moment, and responded: "In my opinion, we are getting closer, and we will be able to reach Youzhou in about two more days."

When Shi Dami heard this, he nodded slightly.

On that day, an ancient bridge appeared in front of their journey.

The stones on the bridge were covered with moss and traces of time, as if they were quietly telling the story of the past.

As soon as Chen Shou saw the bridge, he immediately tied the reins and stopped, with a thoughtful look on his face.

Seeing this, Shi Dami asked in confusion: "Brother Chen, what's wrong? Why did he stop suddenly?"

Chen Shou's eyes were locked tightly on the bridge and said slowly: "Brother Shi, look at this bridge, its structure and style are extremely ancient and rare. I must stay and observe and study it carefully. This is of great significance to my exploration of ancient buildings, and may be able to solve many doubts in my heart."

Shi Dami was a little anxious and advised: "Brother Chen, we still have a trip to hurry, so we can't delay too much here."

However, Chen Shou was extremely determined. He straightened his back and said, "Brother Shi, I have decided. This bridge is like a rare treasure to me. If I cannot explore it carefully, I would rather stay here, even if the poison eventually dies."

Seeing that he was so persistent, Shi Dami sighed helplessly and had to say, "Forget it, since Brother Chen is so persistent, I will accompany you. But we have to try our best to seize the time and not let this matter be delayed for too long."

When Chen Shou heard this, he showed a hint of gratitude on his face, then dismounted and slowly walked towards the ancient bridge, preparing to start his journey of exploration.

Shi Dami could only follow him, looking around with worry, hoping that this stay would not cause any changes.

Chen Shou looked around the ancient bridge for a while, and a ray of light suddenly flashed in his eyes, as if inspiration was coming.

He rubbed his hands excitedly, turned to Shi Dami and said, "Brother Shi, my inspiration is like a spring at this moment. I have to write an article to record it. Now I will go to a nearby place to buy some paper and pen so that I can refer to what I want in my heart."

After hearing this, Shi Dami was helpless, but she couldn't stop her.

Shi Dami secretly complained in her heart: "These literati are so sour. For an article, it is really unpredictable that even such an important thing as rushing to the road is to leave behind."
