Wei Shuyou and Zhao Xifeng stopped Yan Xun to pick a fight. Yan Xun was not to be trifled with. Wei Shuyou couldn't gain an advantage verbally and was angered by him. Fortunately, Wei Shuye stopped him, preventing trouble. Zha Ma put on a grand equestrian show, earning continuous applause and cheers. The Emperor wanted to reward her, and Zha Ma proposed to compete in martial arts with Chu Qiao.
Yan Xun repeatedly declined, but he had little say, and with Wei Shuyou and others pushing for it, the competition was inevitable. Zha Ma had just finished her performance and suggested resting, asking Chu Qiao to first compete with her warrior, Shida. Shida was tall and powerful. Zha Ma didn't really want to rest; she just wanted Shida to teach Chu Qiao a lesson. But unexpectedly, Chu Qiao knocked Shida down with one move and even dared to provoke her.
Zha Ma, left with no choice, proposed an archery contest with Chu Qiao, where each person would shoot three arrows at the other to see who shot more accurately. Zhao Xifeng suggested that Zha Ma use normal arrows, while Chu Qiao use blunt arrows, so that Princess Zha Ma would not be injured, and if Chu Qiao, a mere slave, got injured, it wouldn't matter. Chu Qiao didn't mind; blunt arrows it was.
Chu Qiao and Zha Ma stood on opposite sides, holding their arrows, the air seeming to freeze. Each shot an arrow. Chu Qiao suddenly shifted her body, catching the arrow Zha Ma shot. She then made a sharp turn and shot the arrow back, severing Zha Ma's bowstring with one shot. She casually nocked two more arrows, ready for anything. Seeing the situation, Zha Ma didn't try to be strong and surrendered immediately.
Chu Qiao brought glory to Great Wei, and the Emperor rewarded her with ten thousand taels of gold. Zhao Xifeng then suddenly pointed out that Chu Qiao was originally a slave of Qingshan House, but was now following Yan Xun, and should be considered a runaway slave. By law--he hadn't finished speaking when Yuwen Yue interrupted him.
He reported to the Emperor that he had already prepared the emancipation papers, but was in a hurry to leave the pass three years ago and didn't have time to give them to her. Zhao Xifeng gained no advantage today, but it didn't matter. He and Wei Shuyou had already set up an inescapable trap for Yan Xun; tomorrow would be his demise.
At the same time, Chu Qiao and Yan Xun had also made their arrangements, but it was a pity that Yuwen Huai was the only one missing from their group. Regarding the imperial tomb robbery, Yuwen Huai found a scapegoat, and he himself was demoted three ranks, completely unqualified to attend such a high-level banquet. The sky brightened, and the hunt officially began.
Yan Xun rode his horse into a patch of woods, which was not quite what Zhao Xifeng and others had expected. Their reinforcements hadn't arrived yet, and they were unfamiliar with the woods ahead. But Zhao Xifeng relied on his numerical superiority; even if reinforcements hadn't arrived, it was still a nine-to-one situation, so he wasn't afraid of Yan Xun. However, Wei Shuyou was timid and didn't dare to follow him in.
Yan Xun galloped ahead, with Zhao Xifeng hot on his heels. His strong desire to win made him unaware that his retreat had been quietly cut off, and the men and horses following him had also been secretly dealt with by Chu Qiao. By the time he caught up to Yan Xun, he was left alone. Zhao Xifeng shouted that he would die with Yan Xun.
As he drew his sword, Chu Qiao shot two arrows simultaneously, and Zhao Xifeng fell to the ground. Zhao Xifeng lay disheveled on the ground, looking at Yan Xun's furious eyes. Zhao Xifeng brought up Yan Hongxiao, Yan Xun's sister, who had died by his hand seven months pregnant. The reason he dared to provoke Yan Xun like this was his certainty that Yan Xun feared the Zhao clan and wouldn't do anything to him.
But he underestimated the power of hatred. Yan Xun stabbed Zhao Xifeng to death with a sword, tossing aside the jade pendant the Emperor had given him. After the hunt, only Zhao Xifeng did not return. When he was found, he was already a cold corpse, with a jade pendant beside him. The Emperor caressed the jade pendant, listening to Yan Xun's explanation.
Wei Shuyou insisted that Yan Xun was the murderer, but Yan Xun said he had accidentally lost the jade pendant, and that Wei Shuyou had previously argued with him, so perhaps he killed Zhao Xifeng to frame him out of revenge. Listening only to Yan Xun and Wei Shuyou's one-sided accounts, it was impossible to determine the killer. The Emperor sent Yuwen Yue to investigate the matter.
As the matter was far-reaching, Yuwen Yue requested that Prince Xiang and Prince Yu lead the investigation. Yuan Song never knew how to handle such affairs, so the matter was entrusted to Prince Xiang Yuan Che to lead the investigation. Yuwen Yue discovered that Zhao Xifeng and his three attendants had all died from spiral arrows. The arrowheads of spiral arrows were very special and had always been Wei Shuyou's exclusive arrows.
Yuan Che questioned Wei Shuyou, who admitted to habitually using spiral arrows, but he also cleverly left himself an out, stating that while spiral arrows were difficult to forge, it was not impossible for someone with malicious intent to imitate them. On the day of the hunt, Wei Shuyou went out with Zhao Xifeng, but only he returned, and Zhao Xifeng died from spiral arrows. Yuan Che brought people to inspect Wei Shuyou's residence.
Wei Shuyou appeared composed, confident that nothing would be found. So, when Yuan Che discovered the Northern Yan military preparation maps in a box, Wei Shuyou was completely dumbfounded. Subsequently, in the solemn and majestic great hall, Yan Xun and Wei Shuyou knelt below. Yan Xun accused Wei Shuyou of killing Zhao Xifeng and framing him, and furthermore, the Wei clan had repeatedly sent people to break into Yinggeyuan to assassinate him. Now, coupled with the Northern Yan military preparation maps personally searched out by Yuan Che, the Wei clan's ambition towards Northern Yan was clearly revealed, and Wei Shuyou was speechless.
