Time flies like a white steed flashing past a narrow crevice; a year passed in the blink of an eye. During this year, Chu Qiao ran around for Yan Xun, preparing for their return to Northern Yan. Yan Xun also diligently practiced martial arts day and night, waiting for the moment to return to Northern Yan. At the same time, Yuwen Yue had also stayed at the border for a year.

He had completely transformed from a noble Mister of a powerful clan into a general guarding the frontier. On this day, Yuwen Yue wore a silver battle robe, looking heroic and dashing, but his handsome face bore a solemn expression, and his brows were tightly furrowed. The enemy's sudden attack was very unfavorable for Yuan Che. Yuwen Yue led his small team of only five hundred men, bravely fighting the enemy, vowing to carve a bloody path for Yuan Che.

A war resulted in countless casualties. After successfully repelling the enemy, Yuwen Yue and Yuan Che stood on a high platform, overlooking the land. After a year, Yuan Che had come to view Yuwen Yue with new respect. He knew that Yuwen Yue possessed true talent and learning. The border was not his battlefield; as the heir to the Spy Network of Heavenly Eyes, Yuwen Yue should return to Chang'an.

Now, spies from Liang were active frequently, which was very disadvantageous to Great Wei, and it was also time for Yuwen Yue to return. In the new year, it was time for Imperial Princess Chun'er's birthday again. No matter how lively the banquet, without her beloved Brother Yan Xun, it felt dull and tasteless. Chun'er left behind a group of people who came to celebrate her birthday and specifically went to Yingge Garden to find Yan Xun.

She still remembered how kind Yan Xun was to her when she was a child, but after growing up, he was not as good to her as he was in childhood. Chun'er couldn't understand why, but even so, she still liked Brother Yan Xun, and had for over a decade. Yan Xun took out a gift he had prepared in advance. Chun'er opened the box and was happy and touched to see the gift.

This was the tail of her rabbit, Huanhuan. This rabbit was snatched from Yan Xun's hands, and she cherished it especially. But a few days ago, Huanhuan accidentally bit her, and was beaten to death by Noble Consort Wei. At this moment, seeing Yan Xun specifically cut off Huanhuan's tail as a gift for her, Chun'er was deeply moved. It seemed Brother Yan Xun still had her in his heart.

After Chun'er left, Yan Xun immediately took off the outer garment she had touched and had A Jing take it to be burned. Once upon a time, the upright and straightforward Yan Xun had transformed into his current self, deep in thought and cunning, presenting one facade while hiding another. Yan Xun's three-year period of imprisonment was about to end.

Wu Daoya, a former subordinate of Marquis Northen Settler, was recruiting soldiers and horses in Northern Yan to prepare for Yan Xun's return, and had also made deployments in Chang'an. Zhong Yu told Yan Xun these messages. These were matters of life and death. Zhong Yu hoped Yan Xun would not tell Chu Qiao; she did not trust Chu Qiao enough. But Yan Xun clearly did not think so. He trusted Chu Qiao enough and had nothing to hide.

Chu Qiao was ingenious. She crafted divine weapons, a three-link crossbow, specifically modified according to the terrain of Yingge Courtyard, with immense power. She had always dedicated herself to researching traps and weapons, intending to help Yan Xun. Wei Shuyou, who was confined for two years for attempting to assassinate Yan Xun, was finally released. Not only did he show no remorse, but he even wanted to cause trouble for Yan Xun.

But the current Yan Xun was no longer the weak and destitute Heir Apparent who was at the mercy of others two years ago. Wei Shuyou was asking for trouble. Wei Shuyou had made some progress this time, not appearing in person. The assassins he sent were all killed by Yan Xun and his people. This time, he got off easy. There were still three months until the three-year term expired.

The various powerful clans would not allow Yan Xun to return safely to Northern Yan. Rather than passively taking a beating, it would be better to take the initiative and attack. However, this would mean Yan Xun and his group would have to deal with the three powerful clans—Yuwen, Zhao, and Wei—simultaneously. Chu Qiao pondered for a moment and thought of the late Emperor's imperial tomb.

Yuwen Huai was in charge of guarding the imperial tomb, the Zhao family was responsible for its construction, and the Wei family provided the building materials. If the imperial tomb were stolen, none of the three powerful clans could escape responsibility. Yuwen Huai had guarded the imperial tomb for nearly three years. Given his personality, he would certainly not wholeheartedly perform night duty guarding the tomb, which gave Chu Qiao an opportunity to act.

Night fell, and a thin mist spread, perfectly suitable for action. Chu Qiao and Zhong Yu, dressed in neat night clothes, quietly entered the imperial tomb. Upon entering, Chu Qiao discovered that groundwater was seeping in. This could be greatly exploited. Just imagine: the late Emperor's imperial tomb robbed, treasures sold off, and the late Emperor's coffin even soaked by seeping groundwater. What kind of frantic things would the filial Emperor do? Let's wait and see.

Plans couldn't keep up with changes. Chu Qiao and Zhong Yu were just about to take the imperial tomb treasures when they suddenly heard footsteps. The two split up. Zhong Yu set a fire, and Chu Qiao lured away the person who came. The person was highly skilled in martial arts, and Chu Qiao only managed to escape after several maneuvers. No sooner had Chu Qiao and Zhong Yu left than Yuwen Yue chased out from the tomb.

Only when he reached a clear spot did he realize that what he held in his hand was the Canhong sword, whereas he had clearly taken the Moon Breaking Sword when he entered. They must have mistakenly picked up each other's swords during the previous fight. Not long ago, Yuwen Yue returned to Chang'an with Prince Xiang Yuan Che. He had not expected such a surprising discovery while exploring the imperial tomb tonight.

It must have been Chu Qiao who fought him just now. Yuan Che had previously been depressed about being out of favor and banished by his Emperor Father to the border to fend for himself. Now, years of military life had broadened his mind and made his thinking more open. Rather than a life of deception and intrigue in Chang'an, he preferred the exhilaration of galloping on the battlefield and defending his homeland.

The Emperor summoned Yuwen Yue and Yuan Che. This time, they had defeated a strong enemy with fewer numbers, and the Emperor was very pleased. He specifically appointed Yuwen Yue as the Deputy Commander of the Valiant Cavalry Battalion, to continue assisting Yuan Che and serving the nation loyally. The Emperor also summoned Yan Xun. The three-year period was almost up, and the Emperor wanted to probe Yan Xun's true intentions.

Yan Xun had handled things flawlessly over the past three years. The Emperor relaxed his guard and bestowed upon him a jade pendant that allowed him to move freely in Chang'an, as a reward. Envoys from Rouran were soon to arrive at court. The Emperor planned to host a hunting expedition in the suburbs. Upon Yuan Che's recommendation, the Emperor entrusted the task of guarding the hunting expedition to Yuwen Yue. Yan Xun stood aside.

Hearing about the hunting expedition, his gaze deepened. From the grand hall, Yuan Che and Yan Xun exchanged a few pleasantries when they suddenly heard a guard report that the imperial tomb had caught fire last night, and the guard, Yuwen Huai, had already been arrested by the Ministry of Justice. Immediately after, the Emperor called Yuan Che back to discuss military power. Only Yuwen Yue and Yan Xun remained in the corridor.

Yuwen Yue, with a hidden meaning, asked if Yan Xun had been well lately, and if Chu Qiao was well. Yan Xun, without any change in expression, told him they were all well.
