In the Emperor of Wei's bedchamber, he planned to bestow poisoned wine upon Yuan Chun. Just as Grand Supervisor Wang was about to deliver the wine, Noble Consort Wei suddenly burst in. She saw Grand Supervisor Wang holding the poisoned wine and knelt on the ground in a panic, begging Emperor of Wei for mercy. The crime Yuan Chun committed was too great, and what's more, a Royal Prince had died due to her mistake.
This forced Emperor of Wei to harden his heart and punish her. Noble Consort Wei saw that the emperor's mind was made up. She claimed to be Yuan Chun's mother and that the wrong committed by her daughter should naturally be borne by her. Without another word, she drank the cup of poisoned wine. Emperor of Wei was greatly shocked. He stumbled off his seat to catch Noble Consort Wei, who was swaying and about to fall.
Noble Consort Wei's poison took effect, and she vomited fresh blood. She held on with her last breath, recalling the first time she met the emperor. She respected him, loved him, and said so much, just hoping the emperor would remember their past affection, show leniency beyond the law, and release Yuan Chun. When Yuan Song brought Yuan Chun from the dungeon to Noble Consort Wei's bedside, the Noble Consort had already passed away.
Yuan Chun cried uncontrollably, and the emperor, heartbroken, fainted. He then announced that considering Yuan Chun's youth and ignorance, her imperial princess title would be stripped, she would be moved to the West Courtyard, and would not be allowed to leave the palace for the rest of her life. Yuan Song was conferred the title of King of Northern Yan, and from that day forward, he would lead troops to Northern Yan to quell the rebellion in Northern Yan.
Yuan Chun sat lifelessly in the spacious room. Sunlight streamed in through the window. Her face was pale, her eyes seemed unfocused, and she neither ate nor drank. Caiwei, Yuan Chun's personal maidservant, saw the imperial princess's plight and went to seek help from Wei Shuye. Noble Consort Wei had previously enjoyed great favor and had made many enemies in the palace.
With her death, it was inevitable that someone would secretly disadvantage Yuan Chun, and Yuan Song was about to leave Chang'an. Now, only Wei Shuye could help Yuan Chun. Wei Shuye was also worried about Yuan Chun, but he could barely protect himself. Although the emperor did not hold him accountable for his defeat on the battlefield, he had only just been released from prison and was asked to preside over Noble Consort Wei's funeral.
Under these circumstances, Wei Shuye was powerless, even if he wished to help. Caiwei handed Yuan Chun the Ping'an talisman that Noble Consort Wei had sought for her during her lifetime. Looking at this Ping'an talisman, Yuan Chun remembered that day in the dungeon when her mother had given it to her. What had she done then? She had thrown it away expressionlessly. How heartbroken her mother must have been then.
Holding the Ping'an talisman, she watched Wen Shan, a female official from her mother's palace during her lifetime, kneel on the ground and urge her to cherish herself. Yuan Chun clutched the Ping'an talisman in her hand and instructed her maidservant to prepare for washing. Her life was saved by her mother at the cost of her own, and she could not waste it like this. Meanwhile, in Hongchuan City, Chu Qiao and Cheng Yuan confronted Yan Xun.
Cheng Yuan insisted that he had not shot Chu Qiao. His only fault was handing over the duty of defending the city to his subordinate general Sun He in advance and going to Meilin Pass to help Yan Xun. And Sun He even claimed he had done nothing wrong. He was ordered to defend the city. Chu Qiao led the Xiuli Army and came, demanding entry into the city, but the Xiuli Army had a prior record of being traitors.
How was he to know if they were genuinely defending the city this time? Chu Qiao never expected these people to be so shameless, to talk so grandly about massacring common people and shooting friendly forces. Chu Qiao was furious and drew her sword to face them, but was stopped by Yan Xun's shout. Sun He took the opportunity to sow discord, saying, "Who doesn't know that the Xiuli Army only recognizes Chu Qiao as their master?
If Chu Qiao hadn't defended the city, Northern Yan would probably no longer bear the Yan surname. As for me, Sun He, I have always been loyal. During the three years Yan Xun was trapped in Chang'an, I always followed Mr. Wu to quell rebellions throughout Northern Yan." Sun He knew Chu Qiao wouldn't let it go. He suddenly drew his knife and committed suicide.
Before dying, he told Cheng Yuan not to forget the oath they had made and not to forget how their parents and relatives had died. Sun He died, and the matter was thus settled. Chu Qiao walked through the military camp, feeling vexed. Suddenly, a soldier holding a dagger tried to assassinate her. He was kicked to the ground by Zhong Yu.
The soldier kept accusing Chu Qiao of being a demoness, claiming that if it weren't for her, Yan Xun wouldn't have returned, their cavalry would have broken through Chang'an city gates, and the blood vengeance for their parents and relatives would have been avenged. Only now did Chu Qiao realize that the soldiers in Yan Xun's army viewed her in such a way. Yan Xun sat on the river pier, playing the suona.
His figure was lonely, and the tune was mournful. Chu Qiao watched from afar, her heart a mix of emotions, unsure what to do. Yan Xun did not trust her and did not bring her with him when attacking Chang'an. While she firmly defended Hongchuan, it led to the sacrifice of countless soldiers, blood staining the mountains and rivers, and bones scattered.
As a general, she felt resentment and unwillingness; but as someone who had shared life and death with Yan Xun and could obtain Yan Xun's friendship, as heavy as a mountain peak, Chu Qiao felt there was nothing to be unwilling about. Even so, she always believed that war could devour everything, but it could not devour people's faith and conscience. Meanwhile, Yuwen Yue was wholeheartedly practicing his martial arts, making rapid progress.
He was about to go with Yuan Song to Northern Yan to guard the border. Yuwen Zhuo was worried that Yuwen Yue would be sidetracked by Chu Qiao and specifically reminded him not to abandon his great future for Yan Xun's woman. Yuwen Yue assured his grandfather that this trip was not for personal romantic affairs. After he left, Yuwen Zhuo wrote a letter and had Yue Qi deliver it to the Seventh Royal Prince Yuan Che. At the same time, he performed a divination and discovered that his grandson would face a calamity on this trip.
