The Emperor severely interrogated the Empress, asking what exactly she had given him. The Empress couldn't withstand the pressure and finally confessed that Consort Qi had sent her medicine. Consort Qi, knowing that the Empress rarely served the Emperor, gave the Empress a medicine called deer essence powder, which could make the moments of intimacy between men and women extraordinarily wonderful. The Emperor was furious upon hearing this, ordering the arrest of the peddler selling this medicine in the market.
He stripped the Empress of her title and banished her to Qingyuan Palace. Ye Zhao was drinking tea in the courtyard, calling Qiu Shui and Qiu Hua to inquire about recent events in the court. Qiu Shui and Qiu Hua said that the Emperor had recently sent Fan Zhongyan to the front line to resist the enemy, and Qiu Lao Hu went with him.
After hearing this, Ye Zhao decided to host a farewell banquet for Qiu Lao Hu in the evening. In the evening, Ye Zhao, Zhao Yujin, and Qiu Lao Hu's family sat down to eat together. Ye Zhao lamented that Qiu Lao Hu was going to the battlefield again, while she was still at home sick.
Qiu Shui and Qiu Hua, not wanting the atmosphere to be dull, took out the clothes they had prepared for Qiu Lao Hu, saying that they had sewn them themselves. However, when Qiu Lao Hu looked at them, he saw the tailor shop's label on them and was a little disheartened. Qiu Shui and Qiu Hua had to explain that their needlework was not very good, and Qiu Lao Hu was leaving in a hurry, so they couldn't sew them.
Seeing that the three of them were a little depressed, Ye Zhao took out the things that Qiu Shui and Qiu Hua had made for Qiu Lao Hu. Qiu Shui and Qiu Hua didn't want Qiu Lao Hu to see them, but Qiu Lao Hu didn't care. It was his daughters' heartfelt gesture, and he definitely wanted to see them.
After opening them, he found that they were full of loose threads and holes, and he lamented that his daughters would probably not be able to marry. Zhao Yujin volunteered to ask the Empress Dowager for an imperial decree to arrange marriages for Qiu Shui and Qiu Hua. Only then did Qiu Lao Hu feel relieved and went to the battlefield with peace of mind. Qiu Lao Hu followed Fan Zhongyan to the battlefield.
Fan Zhongyan was on the border for half a year, and the harsh winter came just in time. He used the weather to force the Western Xia troops to retreat and implemented pro-people policies, so the border people lived and worked in peace. When the Emperor was in court, he received a report of victory from Fan Zhongyan and was very happy. He prepared to promote Fan Zhongyan.
Prince Qi pretended to support this, but secretly instructed Grand Tutor Liu and Prime Minister Lu to oppose it. But Fan Zhongyan was, after all, valued by the Emperor, so he was directly summoned back to the capital by the Emperor. After court, Prime Minister Lu and Prince Qi discussed who should be sent to guard Juping Pass after Fan Zhongyan returned to the capital, since this was related to whether Western Xia could invade the Central Plains.
Prince Qi pondered for a long time and came up with an idea. After Fan Zhongyan returned to court, he recommended Ye Zhao to guard Juping Pass, but the Emperor felt that Ye Zhao was ill and should not go to the battlefield again. At this time, Prince Qi suggested that Liu Tiantuo could atone for his sins by going to guard Juping Pass. Fan Zhongyan then suggested Hu Qing, wanting Hu Qing to guard Juping Pass.
In the end, the Emperor decided that Liu Tiantuo would be the main general and Hu Qing would be the deputy general, and they would go to guard Juping Pass. Inside Juping Pass, at Baiyin Fortress, General Guo Fushan was leading his men in training. A junior soldier came to report that a group of displaced people from a tribe outside the city were requesting to be taken in.
After Guo Fushan went out to investigate, he could only say that he would first report this matter to General Liu for a decision. After Liu Tiantuo learned about the displaced people outside the city, he couldn't make up his mind for a moment, so he discussed it with Hu Qing and wrote to the court. Liu Tiantuo's letter first reached Fan Zhongyan.
Fan Zhongyan presented it to the court and suggested taking in these displaced people within the territory, but not allowing them to enter the border pass. Although Prince Qi and Grand Tutor Liu and others tried to stop him, the Emperor still thought Fan Zhongyan's method was feasible and adopted Fan Zhongyan's method. Prince Qi had arrangements for this group of so-called displaced people, and naturally could not let them enter the Song territory.
Instead, he secretly sent someone to kill the messenger who was sending the letter to Liu Tiantuo, and forged a secret letter to the border pass. After Guo Fushan received the secret letter, he saw that the letter instructed all the displaced people to enter Baiyin Fortress for resettlement. Although he felt it was inappropriate, he did not suspect that it was forged and followed the instructions.
Until night, all 1,200 displaced people were properly settled, and Liu Tiantuo turned and entered the camp tent. At this moment, fireworks lit up in the sky, and the displaced people moved upon hearing the signal, killing Guo Fushan and capturing Baiyin Fortress in one fell swoop. When the news reached the capital, it shocked the court and the public. Everyone was stunned by this conspiracy of Western Xia, and the Emperor couldn't even stand still.
At this time, the Western Xia palace was not peaceful either. Yi Nuo and Hal Dun, two brothers, had different war views from Yeli Yuqi. The few people began to argue in the court. Yi Nuo even humiliated Yeli Yuqi. Finally, this quarrel was stopped by the King of Western Xia.
