Mission released!
[Quest location: Desert Border Pass, Dragon Inn]
[Mission objective: Rescue the children of Minister of War Yang Yuxuan.]
[Mission Reward: 1000 Reincarnation Points]
A series of notifications rang out in Xing Tian's mind.
But other than that, there were no other notifications.
Xing Tian could not help but sigh in his heart.
As expected, the difficulty of a trial dungeon in a non-safe zone was extremely high.
First, where were Yang Yuxuan's children? How could they be rescued?
Secondly, the vast desert was so vast, where could he find the Dragon Inn?
For those who did not understand the plot, it was easier said than done to complete the mission!
Fortunately, Xing Tian knew about the plot. However, he was considering a problem.
The mission reward was 1000 Samsara points, but other than that, there was no other reward content. If he completed the mission more than what he had expected, would he be able to trigger an additional story reward?
This was unknown.
But perhaps he could give it a try.
Xing Tian silently accepted the mission in his mind and waited for the next development of the plot.
"What crime did he commit?"
Cao Shaoqing asked again.
"On the eighth day of the fourth month, Yang Yuxuan submitted a letter to the emperor to impeach the East Chamber. He requested the emperor to close the East Chamber and punish the Governor.”
Under the city tower, Jia Ting, one of the four heads of the East Chamber, faced Cao Shaoqing and said respectfully.
Beside him, Lu Xiaochuan, who was also one of the four bosses of the East Military Yard, also stepped forward. He held a letter in his hand and said,""Governor, Yang Yuxuan's letter of remonstrance is here.”
"Lord Yang." Cao Shaoqing's expression was indifferent. He lowered his head and wiped the corner of his mouth with a handkerchief." You're looking for trouble with me.”
"We eunuchs of the East Chamber have always been loyal to the Emperor. Aren't you afraid of losing your head for slandering me like this?”
"Bah!" Upon hearing this, Yang Yuxuan, who was on the verge of death, spat at Cao Shaoqing." Eunuchs are not allowed to participate in politics. It is the last instruction of the Ming Emperor. You set up a private court, killed loyal and loyal people, and even dared to hide it from the Emperor. Heaven will not tolerate this!”
"You still dare to be stubborn!" Jia Ting glared fiercely at Yang Yuxuan." Execution!"”
As soon as he finished speaking, two jailers on both sides of the torture rack hung two heavy iron ingots on the chains that bound Yang Yuxuan.
Immediately, under the heavy pressure, the force of a thousand pounds pulled at Yang Yuxuan's limbs, causing him to spit out another mouthful of blood.
Even Xing Tian couldn't bear to see this, and he secretly looked to the side.
Too ruthless!
Fortunately, Yang Yuxuan was a man. If it were an ordinary person, they would have fainted from the pain even if their flesh and bones were not broken.
However, Yang Yuxuan clenched his teeth tightly. Even if he vomited blood, he still held on to his last breath!
Crackle!
The chains collided with the torture rack, and Yang Yuxuan's legs were deformed by the weight of the two iron ingots. Dark red blood seeped out from his broken flesh.
"Yang Yuxuan, I think you're getting more and more muddle-headed!”
Cao Shaoqing narrowed his eyes and his gaze became more and more sinister, making people shudder. He said,"Hand over your military power and I'll spare your life!”
"You bunch of traitors, you're running amok. Without the emperor's personal order, don't even think about me handing over my military power!”
Hearing this, Cao Shaoqing was not angry. Instead, he sneered and said,""You want an imperial edict? Someone, let's write him a letter!”
"Cao Shaoqing, how dare you pretend to be the emperor!”Yang Yuxuan was furious. He glared at Cao Shaoqing and bit his own tongue.
A line of blood was drawn, and it was extremely desolate.
It splashed onto the fake imperial edict that Cao Shaoqing had prepared.
"He bit his tongue and committed suicide!" The jailer in charge of the execution saw this scene and hurriedly cried out in alarm.
Below the city tower, Jia Ting turned around and looked at Cao Shaoqing, saying,"Yang Yuxuan is a first-grade official. We have to sentence him to death so that we can explain to the emperor.”
"Troops stationed outside the pass, plotting rebellion.”Cao Shaoqing had already expected this scene, so he was not surprised. He casually convicted Yang Yuxuan.
The four heads of the East Chamber immediately bowed to Cao Shaoqing and said respectfully,""Understood!"
In the next moment, Xing Tian saw two jailers dragging Yang Yuxuan's body out of the city, leaving a long trail of blood on the ground.
It looked shocking.
But it was also heartbreaking.
Xing Tian had never been this angry when he watched this movie in his previous life.
He was so angry that he clenched his fists in the crowd, but he was also worried that if he did something rash, it would not only affect the normal development of the plot, but it might also cause the mission to fail.
He could only endure it.
Yang Yuxuan, who had already committed suicide by biting his tongue, was dragged by two jailers to an open space outside the city and thrown on the ground covered in yellow sand like garbage.
Immediately after, the Brocade Guards in black robes and holding broadswords lined up in two rows. They came out of the city and stood on both sides of the dead Yang Yuxuan.
Finally, a eunuch with a face as pale as Cao Shaoqing stood in front of everyone with a forged imperial edict in his hand.
A sharp voice said loudly,"
"In accordance with the heavens, the emperor has decreed! Yang Yuxuan, the minister of the Ministry of Soldiers, stationed troops outside the pass and plotted to rebel. The emperor has decreed that he will be beheaded at noon.”
After saying that, the executioner raised his beheading knife. A cold light flashed, and the head fell to the ground.
Yang Yuxuan's head rolled onto the yellow sand, his eyes wide with anger.
Xing Tian frowned and sighed inwardly.
What a pitiful generation of loyal officials!
"I heard that Yang Yuxuan has a pair of children?”
Cao Shaoqing suddenly asked.
" Reporting to the Governor, Yang Yuxuan does have a pair of children. Now that the criminal Yang Yuxuan has been beheaded, we should remove the roots. Why don't we..." Jia Ting was good at scheming. Getting rid of Yang Yuxuan's family could naturally avoid future troubles.
But Cao Shaoqing didn't seem to think so.
"No, you should catch a big fish. Yang Yuxuan's children are not a future threat. The real future threat is Zhou Huaian.”Cao Shaoqing thought for a moment and lightly brushed his python robe, which was still fluttering in the wind. He immediately said," Send my order. Send the son and daughter of the criminal Yang Yuxuan to the frontier. Mobilize the Black Flag Army to follow him secretly. If Zhou Huaian appears, execute him on the spot!”
"Understood!"
Below the city gate tower, more than a hundred Embroidered Uniform Guards, the four heads of the guards, the guards with sabers, and the jailers bowed.
Cao Shaoqing disappeared from the city gate tower, leaving only a trail of his back.
At the same time, Xing Tian and everyone else got up almost at the same time and prepared to return to the capital. However, Xing Tian deliberately slowed down his pace and only headed in the opposite direction when the group in front of him was getting further and further away.
