Chapter 1020 System Mission Rewards for Conquering the Imperial Capital!

"This humble general, Duanmu Yan, is willing to accompany the general to escort the grain supplies!"

Duanmu Yan paused for a moment, then suddenly dismounted and gave Kong Xuan a solemn military salute.

"Kong Xuan of this family is a Left General under the Duke of Zhenguo."

A hint of surprise flashed in Kong Xuan's eyes. He looked at the lingering redness in the boy's eyes and suddenly chuckled.

"From now on, young general, you will be working under my command as my lord."

He reached out and helped Duanmu Yan up, the warmth of his palm seeping through her black armor.

Duanmu Yan looked up, and in the twilight, Kong Xuan's figure gradually overlapped with the image of her senior sister standing with her sword in her memory.

He suddenly reached into his robes and pulled out half a charred token—the very token of the Wuzhou Dark Guard Camp, now reduced to dust in the night wind.

"General, do you dare to compete with me and see who reaches the next camp first?"

Duanmu Yan suddenly chuckled, and the Melting Scale Blade left afterimages in the twilight.

Kong Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then the phoenix and luan patterns on the five-colored armor suddenly burst out with joyful divine light.

"If the young general loses, he shall drink the entire jar of Drunken Immortal Wine!"

He looked at the boy's arrogant face, then suddenly raised his whip and laughed.

Two divine steeds simultaneously raised their hooves, their iron hooves shattering the setting sun on the ground. The supply wagons snaked like dragons through the dust, and the soldiers' laughter mingled with the tinkling of copper bells, startling the birds roosting by the roadside.

...

"Ding! Iron cavalry tramples the heavens and earth, dragon banners unfurl at the emperor's gates. All the vast land bows in submission, a thousand-year-old empire is grasped by a single general!"

A major event that could have altered the course of the world's destiny has been detected—the capital of the Great Qian Dynasty has fallen! And the host personally led his army to conquer it!

The host is hereby rewarded with 1000 Summoning Points, one Saint-level Political Summoning Card, one Ultimate Special Talent Card (with maximum special attributes, such as commerce or forging), one Random Combination Completion Card (which can randomly apply to one of the host's subordinates, randomly completing a combination for their creation), one Film and Television Era Summoning Card, and the Sword of Might—Tai'a Sword (which can combine with the Ten Famous Swords to enhance the luck of the host's subordinates)!

When Su Ye received the system notification again, he was leaning back on the gilded dragon chair. This chair was three times harder than the rosewood couch in Tianheng Prefecture, Hengzhou, which suited his back and waist from days of fighting.

"Phew, so many rewards just for conquering the capital?"

"That's something I didn't expect. I thought I would only get the side quest—the reward for conquering a major state—after I officially took over the entire Qianzhou."

Su Ye looked at the system task panel, which hadn't appeared for a long time, and was pleasantly surprised.

He currently only controls the Qiandu Dynasty. As for the remaining Qianzhou, apart from Qianling County, where Su Ye and Gu Changqing first met, Su Ye has not yet fully brought the other prefectures under his control.

Su Ye originally thought that the system mission completion reward would only be available after the entire Qianzhou was officially conquered, but he did not expect that simply controlling Qiandu would bring such a remarkable reward.

Moreover, this reward is a timely help. Su Ye has just conquered Qiandu, a capital city that has stood for hundreds of years, and it is the perfect time to appease the people and reorganize the internal affairs.

Furthermore, because Meng Zhang took all the high-ranking officials of the Daqian court above the third rank with him before he left, the internal affairs of the entire Qiandu were essentially paralyzed.

Fortunately, there are still quite a few officials below the third rank in Qiandu, and together with the original imperial city officials, the city has managed to maintain its status for the time being.

However, now that Su Ye has officially brought the entire Qiandu under his control, he will next begin to conquer the entire Qianzhou and completely take control of this central region of the Great Qian Dynasty.

So what we need next is a Saint-level political leader directly under our command. Otherwise, if we continue to use those old subordinates from the Great Qian Dynasty, it would be better to let Meng Zhang leave some people behind!

Therefore, this top-tier political summons card came at a very opportune time.

As for the remaining rewards, apart from the newly released random combination completion card, they were all things I'd seen before.

"My lord, the granaries in the East Market have been inventoried."

"The rice and grain left behind by the Yellow Turban Army is enough to feed the entire city for three months, but..."

Wei Qing stepped onto the white marble steps and ascended the hall. His black scale armor struck the cloud-patterned floor tiles, producing a clear, tinkling sound.

"This humble servant found this in the lining of the rice bag."

He suddenly lowered his voice.

Su Ye took the half-piece of yellow silk presented by Wei Qing, the sealing wax still bearing the dark patterns of the Taiping Guard.

This is not a grain and fodder list at all; it is clearly a handwritten "Deployment Map of the Eight Passes of Qianzhou" by Meng Zhang. Next to the passes and fortresses drawn with vermilion ink, there is a note in tiny characters that reads "Three thousand iron cavalry should be stationed here."

"Meng Zhang is quite generous."

"You're even willing to give away a defense map of a major state like Qianzhou as an extra. If I don't accept it, I'd seem ungrateful."

Su Ye chuckled and brought the yellow silk close to the bronze lamp. Smoke rose from where the flame licked, and the smell of burnt silk mixed with the fragrance of agarwood filled the hall.

"My lord! Those pedantic scholars from the West Market are gathered in front of the ruins of the Imperial Academy, wailing and saying we shouldn't have burned the rare copy of the Yonghui Code..."

Before he could finish speaking, Huo Qubing burst in, his white cloak stained with mud from the moat.

"burn?"

"Qubing, when have you ever seen me burn books?"

Su Ye raised an eyebrow and lightly tapped the armrest of the dragon throne with his fingertips.

"It was the Yellow Turban Army! Before they left, they doused the library with oil, but the fire was extinguished by our Imperial Guards as soon as it started..."

The young general froze, scratching his head as he thought for a long time, then suddenly his eyes widened.

So that's why.

"I'm too busy putting out the fire to worry about burning books!"

"Qubing, take your eight hundred Xuanlin cavalry to the Imperial Academy to help. Remember to show the sealing wax seal that Meng Zhang left behind to those great scholars—tell them that I am sympathetic to their eagerness to protect books and have specially granted them permission to enter the Wenyuan Pavilion in the Imperial Palace to organize the classics."

Su Ye got up and walked to the front of the hall, looking at the blue smoke rising from the direction of Taiye Pond.

"Wait a minute, tell those old gentlemen that I'll cover the cost of the candles at Wenyuan Pavilion."

Huo Qubing accepted the order and was about to leave when Su Ye stopped him.

"My lord, what about the concubines in the harem..."

After the young general left like the wind, Zhuque stepped into the hall with small, quick steps, her crimson battle robe sweeping over the incense ash scattered on the ground.

"The smell of this cosmetics is mixed with a burnt smell, it's like a rouge shop has exploded."

She suddenly frowned, her fingertips brushing against the tip of her nose.

"What did the Third Princess say?"

Su Ye picked up the teacup on the table, the Pu'er tea reflecting the playfulness in his eyes.

"His Highness Si Luo is currently leading the Xuanhuang Army to settle the old guard in the Yeting Palace."

"This is the list of veteran officials rescued from the Yellow Turban army's prison cart as you instructed—the seventy-year-old mother of the Minister of Works, the infant son of the compiler of the Hanlin Academy, and even the parrot raised by the Minister of the Court of Imperial Sacrifices who can recite the Book of Poetry are all on the list."

Zhuque took out a booklet from his sleeve and tapped the booklet with his scarlet jade flute.

Su Ye chuckled upon hearing this, nearly spilling her teacup.

"Meng Zhang is quite adept at doing favors; the prison cart wasn't filled with witnesses, but with living portraits of filial sons and grandsons."

He suddenly stopped smiling and slammed the teacup down.

"Zhongqing".

"Has your Imperial Guard ever rested?"

Su Ye suddenly turned around, the scent of agarwood mixed with the smell of blood forming a net.

"We haven't had a chance to rest yet. This humble general has been negligent in managing the troops; please punish me, my lord!"

Wei Qing paused for a moment, then clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Why should I punish you?"

"I originally wanted you to gather your troops immediately and accompany me to inspect the eight passes of Qianzhou—the fire in Qiandu has been extinguished, but the fire in Qianzhou has only just begun to burn."

Su Ye chuckled softly, gazing at the white-armored figure below with lowered eyes.
