Chu Qiao finally woke up, finding Yuwen Yue leisurely sitting by her side, watching her. Chu Qiao knew her situation was difficult and didn't want to implicate him, but what she said was to tell him to mind his own business. How could Yuwen Yue be such an obedient person?
She wanted him to stay far away, but he deliberately wouldn't; she hated owing others, but he deliberately made her owe him a great favor, one that she could never repay in her lifetime. There were too many assassins, and Yuwen Yue was busy dealing with them, unable to divide his attention. Yan Xun seized the opportunity and took Chu Qiao away.
Yuwen Yue saw from a distance that it was Yan Xun, so he did not pursue, but instead chose to find Liang's Crown Prince Xiao Ce. Xiao Ce wanted to use Yuwen Yue's hand to eliminate Xiao Yu and her subordinates. He feigned seriousness and took out a piece of paper, claiming it contained assassin information.
Yuwen Yue saw through Xiao Ce's intention at a glance, but eliminating the spies from Liang was also his idea; he was merely going with the flow. Following the address Xiao Ce provided, Yuwen Yue found Xiao Yu's capable assistant, Taoye. Taoye was an excellent spy who remained silent until Yuwen Yue used mind control on her. Only then did Taoye reveal the detailed deployment of the spies from Liang in Chang'an.
Subsequently, Yuwen Yue swiftly purged the spies from Liang, shops, and other establishments in Chang'an, clearing them out completely, leaving no one behind. At the same time, Xiao Yu also received the news and ordered those who could retreat to do so immediately, hoping to preserve what they could. It was night, the moon was cold like water, and the clear moonlight spread across the land. Yan Xun looked at the unconscious Chu Qiao, his heart aching deeply.
Xiao Ce suddenly arrived, bringing with him the military deployment map outside the city that Yan Xun had always wanted. Xiao Yu had previously planned to cooperate with Yan Xun, but now she could barely protect herself. Xiao Ce seized the opportunity to win over Yan Xun, not only providing him with the urgently needed military deployment map outside the city, but also knowing the troop distribution from Chang'an to Northern Yan like the back of his hand.
This was Xiao Ce's bargaining chip for cooperation. Yan Xun assessed the situation and chose Xiao Ce, but he also warned Xiao Ce that there would be no next time. Yan Xun's words were ambiguous, but Xiao Ce understood: Yan Xun was warning him not to put Chu Qiao at risk again.
On their way back, Xiao Ce's personal bodyguard Tiedou reminded him that Yuwen Yue had already learned some of Yan Xun's arrangements from Taoye, asking if it would be detrimental to Yan Xun. Xiao Ce looked speechless; he was not Yan Xun's father, so there was no need to worry about him. If Yan Xun couldn't even leave Chang'an, he wouldn't be able to contend with others even if he returned to Northern Yan.
If that were the case, Chu Qiao would be pitiful. The sky gradually brightened. Yan Xun had stayed by Chu Qiao's bed all night. Chu Qiao coughed and woke up. Yan Xun breathed a sigh of relief. He told Chu Qiao that Xiao Ce had visited and brought the garrison map. Chu Qiao had a "just as I expected" feeling; she knew Xiao Ce was not simple.
Chu Qiao felt some regret; Yan Xun had already left the city yesterday, and it was a pity he didn't seize the opportunity to escape. Yan Xun didn't think it was a pity; Yuwen Yue had already fixed his eyes on them, so leaving would be anything but easy. Chu Qiao then brought up the Xiuli Army.
Regardless of whether they were sincere, it was an undeniable fact that the Xiuli Army had opened the gates of Northern Yan for Zhao Dongting back then. Yan Xun needed to reconsider. It was another cool night. In a bamboo forest, a small thatched hut was hidden. Yuwen Yue sat in the courtyard, seemingly waiting for someone. Soon after, Yan Xun arrived under the moonlight and sat opposite Yuwen Yue. Yuwen Yue took out a jar of Jade Wine.
When Yan Xun had his birthday years ago, Chun'er had brought out a jar of Jade Wine, claiming it was the only one left in the world. Now, Yuwen Yue brought out another jar; he merely wanted to illustrate that some things are not absolute, hoping to persuade Yan Xun to stop. Yuwen Yue knew that Yan Xun had no intention of marrying Chun'er. He named several officials who were helping Yan Xun.
Under their arrangements, Yan Xun, with a single lapse in judgment, could very likely flood Chang'an. At that time, the 500,000 innocent civilians of Chang'an would suffer. Yan Xun was indifferent to this, asking how innocent the people of Northern Yan were who died under the Royal Court's iron cavalry back then. Seeing his firm attitude, Yuwen Yue asked him if Chu Qiao knew about these arrangements. Yan Xun did not answer; the answer was self-evident.
Yuwen Yue had control over Yan Xun's military strength and cut off his escape routes. Zhong Yu wanted to deploy the Xiuli Army. Before she could speak, Yan Xun interrupted her. How could Yan Xun not have thought of what Zhong Yu thought of? He simply could not forgive the Xiuli Army's actions back then. After much deliberation, Yan Xun went to the palace to see Chun'er. Chun'er was busy making wedding arrangements and was overjoyed to see him.
The Emperor suddenly arrived, hypocritically stating that Chun'er was his most beloved imperial princess and telling Yan Xun not to bully her. The journey back to Northern Yan was long, and the Emperor planned to send Yuwen Yue to escort them. Yan Xun repeatedly declined. The Emperor dangerously narrowed his eyes and asked Yan Xun if he had recently met Yuwen Yue. Yan Xun insisted he had not, which only made the Emperor more suspicious.
Chu Qiao's physical condition was good, and her wounds healed extremely quickly. Zhong Yu told her that Xiuli Army general He Xiao was accused of privately possessing military weapons and had been arrested. This batch of bows and arrows was gifted to the Xiuli Army by Yuwen Yue that day. He Xiao accidentally lost his warrant, but the warehouse staff claimed to have seen the warrant and that the bows and arrows had already been taken.
The problem was that this batch of bows and arrows was not seen among the Xiuli Army. On the training ground, the sun scorched the earth, causing an inexplicable sense of anxiety and unease, just like the mood of the Xiuli Army soldiers present. He Xiao knelt on the ground, tied up. The then commander of the Xiuli Army, Xue Zhileng, stood by, pointing out He Xiao's private possession of military weapons.
He Xiao admitted to losing the warrant but refused to admit to privately possessing military weapons. Seeing his stubbornness, Xue Zhileng ordered the execution. How could the Xiuli Army soldiers bear to watch He Xiao be beheaded like this? They protested and pleaded. Chu Qiao arrived at this moment.
