4) Side mission three: Kill Song Xian! (Completed)
At the same time, side mission 2 has also undergone changes.
3) Side mission two: Complete soul transformation (6.5/10)
Originally it was no (5/10), but after Xu Yi watched Nie Yunzhu dance for a few days, it rose to (6/10), and after killing Song Xian, it rose to (6.5/10).
There are only three and a half minutes left to completely complete the soul transformation.
Xu Yi felt the tumbling fluctuations in his soul, and seemed to feel the urgency to complete his transformation.
"It's almost here, it won't take long."
Xu Yi quickly opened Chengdong's iron box and took away the banknotes and jewelry.
For Song Xian, he felt that the safest place was his military tent, so he directly placed all his most valuable and most requested things there.
That would also make it easier for Xu Yi to search.
"A small captain actually has wealth worth nearly 70,000 to 80,000 taels, tsk!"
Xu Yi made a sound with unknown meaning. At first, he searched the Wu family, but he could not get more than 300,000 taels of wealth.
Could it be that the Wu family has accumulated wealth for decades?
A little Song Xian actually owned nearly a quarter of the Wu family's wealth. It was obvious how many people he had plundered over the years.
"There's an assassin!"
The soldiers finally discovered the problem and shouted at Han Xuan.
But in the darkness, they found nothing. They saw a pile of corpses lying on the ground and a headless male corpse in the tent.
······
late at night.
Lu Hongti was lying on the bed, but she couldn't sleep.
As soon as she closed her eyes, she would think of her companions who died tragically in the legs of those soldiers.
"Otherwise he harmed them!"
If they hadn't denied her insistence on killing Song Xian, they wouldn't have denied that outcome.
Lu Hongti clenched her fists.
"Rest in peace! No matter what, he will definitely kill Song Xian! Revenge for us!"
While she was immersed in sadness.
Duh duh duh.
A knock on the door suddenly sounded.
Lu Hongti's expression tightened, but she didn't say anything.
She didn't know who the person who knocked on the door was, and her own identity was quite sensitive and not suitable to be exposed at all.
What if there are officers and soldiers outside the door who refuse to search?
Duh duh duh.
The knocking on the door started again.
At the same time, a voice sounded.
"No, open the door."
"Master Xu?"
Lu Hongti hesitated for a moment, then picked up the sword by her leg and opened the door.
Opening the door, there was nothing easy outside.
"Mr. Xu, it's so late, I..."
"Here! He thinks I should want to see that more now, otherwise Coco won't be able to sleep."
Xu Yi handed a round package to Lu Hongti.
"Then..."
Lu Hongti originally wrapped the package, smelling the strong smell of blood, and had a vague suspicion in her heart.
In anticipation and nervousness, she opened the package with her legs shaking slightly.
A face that was so familiar that she wished she could cut it into pieces appeared in front of her.
"Song Xian!!"
"That bitch! You are finally dead!"
Lu Hongti cried and laughed, and it took a while before she recovered.
He wiped his tears and said a little embarrassedly.
"Mr. Xu, I'm sorry, he's a little out of his mind."
"It's okay, he understands me."
Xu Yi swung his legs.
Lu Hongti hesitated for a moment and couldn't help but say.
"Master Xu, do I have any grudge against Song Xian?"
"Whether there is no hatred or not, just let him go and let him go. At the same time, he can do justice to heaven and make him feel better physically and mentally."
"Mr. Xu, am I really a good person?"
Lu Hongti looked at Xu Yi with lingering eyes and said.
"Don't say that, he is not a good person!"
Xu Yi shook his head, he didn't want to be a good person.
"Okay, it's getting late. After looking at the head, I should be able to sleep peacefully tomorrow night. Go get some rest."
"Mr. Xu, did you just reject him and go kill the thief overnight?"
Lu Hongti bit her red lips and asked the question she wanted to ask the most.
"Not entirely no."
Xu Yi pondered something.
"Master, please, he thinks that Song Xian has just experienced an assassination. He should not be so vigilant. Coco is easier to kill!"
Is this the case? After returning to the military camp, maybe he felt that it was safe enough, so Song Xian directly sent most of the soldiers out to search for the men in black.
That left the military camp empty, giving Xu Yi an opportunity to take advantage of.
Lu Hongti obviously didn't believe Xu Yi's statement. Her eyes when she looked at Xu Yi became more gentle and moist.
Even if what Xu Yi said is wrong, is there a military camp there?
Even if most of the troops were sent out, it would still be the most dangerous place.
Xu Yi rejected her, risking his own life and killed Song Xian in such a place...
"Hongti doesn't know how to repay Mr. Xu for this kindness."
"Let's talk about the repayment later. It's very late. Miss Lu, why don't you take a rest first? Otherwise, it won't be easy for Keke to rest tomorrow."
As soon as Song Xian died, the entire city of Jiedonglai was bound to undergo a long period of rigorous investigation.
The fact is, if General Xu Yi had not killed all the officers in the camp, leaving the entire military camp in Ruming without a leader, there would probably be a strict investigation tomorrow morning!
For the time being, I can probably get a good night's sleep tomorrow night, but that won't be the case tomorrow.
After saying that, Xu Yi was about to turn around and leave.
"Mr. Xu..."
Lu Hongti stopped him.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Yi turned his head and asked with some confusion.
Lu Hongti glanced at Song Xian's head, thought of everything Xu Yi had done for her, gritted her teeth and made a decision.
"It's so late, why don't Mr. Xu rest there?"
Before she could finish speaking, she lowered her head.
Although she is a heroine who does things very neatly, she still won't be embarrassed when faced with such things.
Xu Yi was silent for a moment and finally uttered one word.
"good."
The matter of Chengdong will naturally fall into place.
Of course, Xu Yi didn't really ask for Lu Hongti at first, so he left his own exclusive mark on her.
"I'm very injured and it's inconvenient."
"Xu Lang, I'm so kind."
Lu Hongti lay in Xu Yi's arms, her heart filled with emotion and security.
If she had a sentimental attitude of repaying gratitude before, now she really feels that it is right to give herself to that man.
"Go to sleep."
Xu Yi kissed Yidong Lu Hongti's forehead.
The two slept in each other's arms.
······
In the next few days, Xu Yi would specially deliver meals to Lu Hongti, and then accompany her to talk about martial arts and other matters. The relationship between the two gradually deepened.
A few days later, under Xu Yi's careful care, Lu Hongti's injuries gradually recovered, and then that night, the two of them accomplished a good thing.
3) Side mission two: Complete soul transformation (7.5/10)
Because of Lu Hongti's sacrifice, Xu Yi's soul transformation took another step forward, and he was very close to completely completing the transformation.
In those few days, Song Xian's death naturally caused an uproar in Jiangning City.
A court official, one of the top three in power in Jiangning City, died like that, and he died in a heavily guarded military camp!
A large number of middle-level officers died with them. Wouldn't that be a slap in the face of the imperial court?
Investigate strictly!
Must be strictly investigated!
the next day.
Jiangning City was sealed off.
A three-day investigation of the entire city began!
······
Deep in a beautiful bamboo forest.
In the middle of the clear lake, there is a pavilion, which is secluded and remote, and has a sense of the worldly beauty of the yew.
Pavilion in the lake.
Two men are playing chess.
The two of them looked ordinary, and they did not have a large number of guards or attendants around them.
But if someone familiar with them sees them, they might be immediately frightened and bow their legs.
Without him, both of them are real big shots!
If Song Xian is one of the top three most powerful people in Jiangning City, then those two are not the top three most powerful people in Jiangning City!
One of these two people was Qin Siyuan, the former left prime minister of the dynasty, and the other was Kangxian, the prince-in-law of the dynasty.
In terms of official positions, the two of them actually no longer hold the position of Ye You, but are they still people with great influence in the entire court?
Their random words caused huge shocks both inside and outside the court.
Compared with them, a small person like Song Xian is really not worth mentioning.
But at this moment, the two real big shots in Jiangning City, who had always discussed important matters of family and country, unexpectedly had a rare discussion about one person.
"Have you heard what happened in the Wu Liejun camp? Is there anything you want to say?"
Kang Xian said while playing chess.
"Kill good people and take credit, oppress the people, and die undeservedly!"
Qin Si did not mention the source and directly gave three idiom evaluations.
Song Xian thought that no one knew what he was doing, but in fact, for some people, nothing about him could be hidden at all!
Even without any witness testimony, they can determine many things based on inferences from some information.
For example, in the merit report submitted by Song Xian, he killed hundreds of bandits, but it turned out that dozens of people were injured and no one died?
Anyone who knows a little bit about leading soldiers in war knows what it means behind it.
Are the bandits in Luliang Mountain famous for their ferocity?
Even if there were truly elite troops and strong generals to attack, it would be impossible to achieve such a result. What's more, Song Xian led no elite troops at that time, and he himself was not a peerless general. How could he have fought such a battle?
The loss ratio comes out.
The reason why I didn't pay attention to it was because there were too many things like that, and they couldn't control that much even if they wanted to.
Who knew that if Song Xian of theirs was lost, Li Xian or Zhang Xian would not come after him?
Moreover, as far as Qin Siyuan's identity is concerned, he is indeed a bit too sensitive. Every move he makes will attract the attention of the court. If you really don't care about that kind of thing, no one knows whether it will cause more trouble.
Kang Xian shook his head, and then he said.
"He doesn't ask about the dead, he asks about the living."
Qin Siyuan was silent for a moment and gave two idioms.
"How audacious! Lawless!"
"Haha, that's really my style!"
Kang Xian laughed a few times.
Qin Siyuan shook his head.
"A chivalrous man used force to break the law. Although Song Xian did deserve his death, his behavior was really inappropriate!"
"Then do you think that according to what I said, you don't need to worry about that matter at all? Just wait for Song Xian to harm more people?"
Kang Xian said with a half-smile.
Qin Siyuan was silent for a long time before speaking.
"Is there any law in Tiandong? If those warriors are allowed to kill indiscriminately, what will the laws of Tiandong be?"
"Warrior, Law... He does agree with my idea of respecting the law, but he is saying that there are many people in Tiandong who cannot be cured by the law!"
Kang Xian picked up a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp. He didn't know what he was thinking, but there was a look of despair in his eyes.
Qin Siyuan didn't shut up either.
Indeed, many people in Tiandong are bound by the law!
The Ming Dynasty has not yet declined. After more than a hundred years of dominance, it has become quite powerful. However, even so, their laws cannot control too many people.
A chivalrous person breaks the law with force.
The top warriors in that world were so powerful that they could even directly influence the imperial power!
Not to mention his former leftist prime minister, even if he becomes emperor, there is nothing he can do about his mistakes.
"Actually speaking, that Xu Yi is already pretty good. No matter whether it was the Wu family's Wu Liejun incident or not, he just killed the evil leader and did not implicate innocent people. Compared with those so-called knights who frequently kill people.
It’s already so much better than that.”
Kang Xian sighed and said, and then he looked at Qin Siyuan.
"I should be preparing for a comeback now, right? Please don't take that person under your command and use it for me? He heard that Cai Jingmendong has raised a lot of wonderful people. If I don't have enough by then,
If he is a helper, he will suffer a lot if he is wrong!"
Qin Siyuan's heart moved when he heard this.
He was not very surprised that the mistake he had made in resurrecting himself was discovered.
Although many of his actions are relatively secretive, it would be difficult to hide them from Kang Xian, the smart man who spends most of his time with him.
Lord, he himself didn’t even think about hiding it.
Qin Siyuan was indeed moved by Kang Xian's suggestion.
"Cai Jing..."
The being that he regarded as his biggest mistake after his recovery, he indeed had to make the greatest preparations for.
Although the unspoken rules of battles between courts may involve assassination by force, if those unspoken rules are followed by some people, then they are truly unspoken rules.
If people don't abide by it, then the so-called unspoken rules will be ignored!
Not to mention anything else, during those years of seclusion, Qin Siyuan encountered no less than ten assassinations.
If his political opponents really followed the rules, would he have suffered so many assassinations?
Qin Siyuan didn't know if there were people sent by Cai Jing in those assassinations, but judging from the reputation of the "treacherous prime minister" on his side, the likelihood that he could safely abide by the unspoken rules was not very high.
Is it necessary to have a warrior guard that is necessary?
Thinking about Xu Yi's behavior and legs, Qin Siyuan was still a little hesitant.
"He's very curious about that person. Could you please meet them first?"
