Finally, the five-day period passed. Just as Wei Kongxin was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he received a new order from Chu Ying: "Minister Wei, you will personally lead the transport team and escort these three criminals to Northern Yuan. Let Xiao Qinian see how we in the Chu State treat such treacherous and faithless people. At the same time, this will serve as a reminder to him—tell him that the cooperation between our two nations must be built on a foundation of integrity and respect."
Upon hearing this, Wei Kongxin felt a thousand forms of reluctance, but he knew this was his duty as a subject. He took the order and left, inwardly calculating how to complete this complex and sensitive task.
At the border of Northern Yuan, Wei Kongxin led the transport team slowly forward, the three criminals bound tightly and guarded within the ranks. When they appeared before Xiao Qinian, the entire Northern Yuan imperial palace was thrown into an uproar.
