Chapter 439: The Tasker Appears

scent. When I woke up a little more, I saw you too, so..."“I told you, I received a notification from Howl that you weren’t feeling well and asked me to check on you. When I entered your cave, I foun...Yu Gonggong stood at the entrance of the imperial study, his mind preoccupied. However, there was not a hint of emotion on his face, his lips pursed into a thin line as he respectfully waited.

As the emperor's confidant, there were some things he could guess but not delve into, let alone speak of. Otherwise, he would be courting death.

At this time, only the Emperor remained in his study. He threw the scroll in his hand into the pile of official documents, propped his head up with one hand, and murmured to himself within his mind:

"Qinxīn, wasn't this mission a bit too smooth"

"Does the tasker want to increase the difficulty"

"I have accepted the Emperor's memories, and the plot you provided, but so far it seems to differ from reality."

"Are you talking about Xiangyi getting hurt"

"Yes, whether in the emperor's memory or in the plot you provided, Xiangyi's face was unharmed. The guards around her were also alive and devoted to her, doing many wicked things for her."

Now that her left and right arms are gone, and she's injured herself, she's completely under my control. She won't be able to cause any more trouble in the future, at least not in Han. The country will no longer be embroiled in the chaos she caused.

"The assignee only needs to focus on completing the task, as for the process, it can be adjusted at any time."

The original emperor, remembering Xiang Yi's sacrifice for peace, was lenient and even protective towards her. However, he ended up raising a white-eyed wolf who conspired with Tuoba Han of the Meng nation to kill her own brother in order to become empress. Ultimately, she became nothing more than a pawn in their hands.

Had I not arrived so late, she would never have set foot in the imperial city again. She should have been left in Meng Guo to love and kill with Tuobo Han.

"But this time, I saved the child, kept him from wasting away by Xiangyi's side, and gave him a place to develop his talents. In the future, he will also be my help."

"By keeping Xiangyi now, you're using her as a bargaining chip, a way to make Qiqi devote herself to you completely."

"Yes! I will deliver the murderer of his family into his hands myself, in exchange for his loyalty. Perhaps I can even gain the support of the King of Longxi."

"You're a pretty good accountant."

"There's no other way. We're about to go to war. Even if I gain the upper hand this time and defeat Meng Guo, the snow disaster afterwards will be the most difficult to deal with. The original owner of this life didn't know who's slander he listened to, but he pressured the Wang family of Longxi to contribute money and resources. In the end, it caused the Wang family to completely leave Han."

The taskmaster couldn't help but feel pity for the emperor. He was truly a failure. One wondered how he had learned the art of being an emperor. Faced with internal and external troubles, he still resorted to such extreme measures, losing the hearts of the people and enraging the powerful Wang family of Longxi. They stormed off in anger, taking their immense wealth and technology, completely leaving the Han kingdom behind.

The commanders facing the Mongols lost their support. One third of their warhorses, provisions, and equipment were supplied by King Longxi. Without the king's support, the army was quickly overwhelmed by Tuoba Han's attack. They broke through the defenses and advanced deep into the territory, causing the entire Hanzhong region to fall.

"As an imperial merchant, the Wang family of Longxi had accumulated immense wealth over generations, rivaling that of a nation. However, their prosperity also aroused envy and greed. Their departure was not solely due to personal reasons; there were those who plotted against them, and the Mongol nation played a part in this scheme."

“Well, when rumors of treasure appeared in the Jianghu, I knew it was aimed at the Wang family. The trigger was still Xiangyi, that poisonous woman. She killed the second miss and her husband and child of the Wang family. Xiaoqi was able to survive because she wanted another Xu Fengze by her side.”

The tasker scoffed.

"It was ultimately this child who dragged her into the abyss. He avenged his parents and sister, dying a gruesome death."

My heart also feels a pang of emotion.

So this time, to prevent him from falling back into Xiangyi's hands, I sent him to investigate this matter. His face will surely be recognized by the ancestors of the Lord of Longxi.

However, the Su Nü Palace, which had its loyal followers completely wiped out by Xiang Yi's death, was previously just a small sect and wasn't even well-known. This time, they indirectly helped me greatly; I wonder what their background is.

Su Nu Gong got ahead of Xiang Yi, that was the turning point of the whole event. I asked you to look into it last time, what did you find

The tasker is still very vigilant.

After Xiangyi came back with facial injuries, I investigated the mission background. The Sū Nyü Palace was a sect that was about to be destroyed, also destroyed by Xiangyi's hands, but that was after Xiangyi colluded with Tuo Ba Han.

What she coveted was the youth-preserving technique of Sù Nǚ Gōng, but it wasn't as mystical as people thought. It was simply due to the internal energy method that slowed down the aging process.

Now Xiangyi's arrival at Sǔnǚ Palace is earlier than planned, and he was forcefully slapped in the face. His men were also completely wiped out. This indirectly helped you, and the one who played a role in this was Sǔnǚ Palace Master's youngest disciple, Su Liàn Yī!

And the eldest daughter of the Wang family, Wang Zhenzhen, is also in Sù Nué Palace. Surprised In her past life, Princess Xiangyi sought out Sù Nué Palace for eternal youth. After succeeding, she destroyed Sù Nué Palace and its people, including Wang Zhenzhen, the eldest daughter of the Wang family.

The news reached the Wang family in Longxi, and their ancestor Wu was so enraged that she died. Adding to this, your target, the emperor, a fool of an emperor, kept pressuring the Wang family. The Wang family now hates the royal family and has decided to leave.

Qin Xin felt that the downfall of the Han imperial family was truly unrelated to natural disasters, it was entirely a man-made disaster.

"It seems that some things were destined from the start! I should pay more attention to the little apprentice of the Palace Master of the Sùnǚgōng. The entire Sùnǚgōng is now hiding, do you know what's going on"

It's just the art of Qimen Dunjia, but the materials they use to set up the formations are rather special. Ordinary people can't possibly see through them.

"Can't you do it either"

"It looks kind of like a spirit stone."

"Is this world about to enter the era of cultivation"

"No, just possesses the conditions to enter the era of cultivation."

"This is getting more and more interesting!"

"Whose formation is this"

"Wang Zhenzhen!"

"Could she do that"

"I'm not sure, when I checked it looked like she set up the formation."

"Could she also be a tasker"

"It's impossible! A dimension only allows one tasker at a time, unless it's a special mission or a joint mission. Otherwise, two taskers cannot be in the same mission simultaneously as it would easily interfere with each other."

A reassuring and heartfelt answer.

Then I will continue to arrange for people to keep an eye on the Sūnu Palace.

After the Tasker ended their conversation with their communicator, they opened their eyes and reached out to pick up the crumpled note that had been thrown back. They began to review it.

While the ripples in Huai'rou County were still unaware that she had been noticed by the emperor, and that he was the true mission-bearer of this world, aiming to save the Han Dynasty.

It was just that she accidentally played a supporting role, the two of them, one in the temple and the other in the rivers and lakes.

After taking a stroll around the pond, Lian Yi returned to Ruyi Inn and went to look for Wang Zhenzhen.

"Aunt, as for the remaining five children, I'm planning to send them back to Su Nü Palace. It's inconvenient to take them back to Longxi."since they've already set their sights on our children, it would be even more trouble if they brought in their accomplices.""Damn it!" Zhang Shi spat fiercely, then circled the courtyard, looking for...
