Qiao Ping stepped forward, bowed deeply to the soldiers of his own country, and frankly admitted that Qiao Yue's confusion had led to the current state of Yanzhou. The soldiers already respected Qiao Ping, and together they captured the commander of Liangya. Qiao Ping ordered an end to cooperation with Liu Yan, recalled the troops, and arranged for a high-quality coffin to bury Wei Liang. Xue Tai gained an advantage in his first battle at Yu County.

What pleased Su Ehuang even more was that Wei Shao continued leading troops to attack Panyi instead of returning to support Yu County. She hoped to see disappointment on Xiao Qiao’s face. However, Xiao Qiao understood that Wei Shao must have had his reasons for what he did. Madam Xu, righteous as always, chose to support Wei Shao and continued resisting Xue Tai’s forces. The only difficulty was the lack of a capable commander in the city at the moment.

At this time, Wei Yan returned. He had been imprisoned by Chen Pang, but the generals trusted Wei Yan and rescued him, expressing their willingness to follow him and support Yu County. Madam Xu was overjoyed and even knelt to welcome the arriving soldiers. Watching Wei Yan leave with his men, she prayed for their safe return and wished for peace in the world. When Wei Shao led his troops to Panyi, the city gates were wide open.

He entered with his men, finding Bi Zhi alone inside, holding a spear and waiting for him. Bi Zhi confessed that though he didn’t want to fight Wei Shao, he had no choice for the sake of Da Qiao. At that moment, Liu Yan emerged with Da Qiao in custody. Wei Shao understood the dilemma in Bi Zhi’s heart.

Liu Shan had captured Da Qiao and mocked Bi Zhi as nothing more than a beast who obeyed any command under threat. Da Qiao was heartbroken and rebuked Liu Shan for being unfair to Bi Zhi. But in Liu Yan’s eyes, Bi Zhi was a wild animal. Da Qiao kept calling out to Bi Zhi, urging him not to obey those people.

Watching Bi Zhi and Wei Shao fight with all their might, Da Qiao recalled what Xiao Qiao had said when she came to seek help. Da Qiao realized she couldn’t allow Bi Zhi to be manipulated for her sake. Just as Bi Zhi was about to strike Wei Shao, Xiao Qiao shouted loudly, reminding him that he was her beloved, not a beast to be used by others.

Suddenly, Da Qiao broke free from Liu Shan and leapt from the city tower. Bi Zhi tried to catch her, but he was a moment too late. With a smile, Da Qiao looked at Bi Zhi one last time and closed her eyes forever. Bi Zhi held Da Qiao in his arms, crying out in agony, and turned his vengeful gaze toward Liu Yan, vowing to make him pay in blood.

But Liu Yan was unconcerned, convinced that tens of thousands of troops in the city were more than enough to deal with the two of them. Meanwhile, Wei Yan led a force to attack Xue Tai and cut him down from his horse. With Xue Tai dead, the army scattered. The maids began looting and trying to escape.

Su Ehuang, holding a long sword, wanted to kill them, but they believed she was now isolated and powerless and rose up in defiance. They knocked off the mask from Su Ehuang’s face, revealing her disfigured appearance. Just then, a general burst in and killed the women, but unexpectedly, Su Ehuang, thinking he had seen her face, killed him without warning. Before dying, the general told Su Ehuang that he had been sent by Liu Yan.

If the war failed, he was to escort her to safety and had even prepared a new residence for her. In fact, Liu Yan had long known what Su Ehuang looked like but never minded. Su Ehuang recalled what Wei Shao had once said—how she always blamed the world for treating her unfairly, yet all the men around her had treated her sincerely. Overcome with despair, Su Ehuang picked up the sword and held it to her own neck.

Seeing Bi Zhi and Wei Shao locked in a deadly battle, Liu Shan, afraid that Liu Yan would be killed, quickly ordered guards to escort him away. But Liu Yan only remembered the promise he had made to Su Ehuang—to kill Wei Shao. Not wanting any obstacles, Liu Yan killed Liu Shan. When he came to his senses, he realized Bi Zhi and Wei Shao had already arrived.

Liu Yan laughed wildly, declaring that even if he lost, Wei Kingdom was finished. In the end, Liu Yan was slain by Bi Zhi and Wei Shao together. Before he died, Liu Yan’s last thoughts were of Su Ehuang, regretting that he had failed to keep his promise to her. Gao Heng completed the inscription for Yongning Canal. Wei Shao, full of ambition, aimed to bring peace to the world.

Wei Yan had secured Yu County and was heading to Bianzhou to take over as Governor. He bid farewell to Madam Xu, who only wished for peace and harmony between the two countries. Bi Zhi returned to Liangya, looking at the swing where Da Qiao used to sit, recalling the joyful times they shared. The konghou she left behind was still there, but Da Qiao was gone. The three Wei brothers came to pay their respects at Wei Liang’s grave.

Xiao Tao also brought Lan Cao Cao to the tomb and scolded Wei Liang for breaking his promise, saying in the end it was still she who had to propose. Regardless of life or death, she was willing to marry Wei Liang. The four brothers buried small weapons in front of Wei Liang’s grave, as if to keep him company.

As they left, Xiao Tao looked back at the tombstone and seemed to see Wei Liang holding Lan Cao and waving goodbye to her. The Deer Offering Ceremony was about to begin, and everyone had prepared the necessary ritual items. But Wei Shao was nowhere to be found, so Madam Xu was invited to help preside over the ceremony. At that moment, Wei Shao was busy soothing Fei Fei, who was crying non-stop, and he couldn’t bear to leave.

Xiao Qiao came and picked up the child, content with the family’s happiness. Several years later, the Yongning Canal was fully completed, bringing prosperity to the people.
