Feng Yun was locked up by Wen Xingsu, confined in a courtyard whose location she herself could not bear to identify.
Heavy guard surrounded her, leaving her with no means to move an inch.
Wen Xingsu sent two mute maids to serve her, tending to her daily needs with fine food and drinks. They were skilled in martial arts, worked efficiently, but never spoke to her.
When questioned, they seemed to know nothing.
Only feigning ignorance.
Thus, she remained unaware that during the days of her imprisonment, the entire realm was teetering on the edge of chaos.
The battle at Suo Yue Ridge concluded with Qifang retreating, while the surprise attack in Bingzhou faltered due to Wen Xingsu's cunning feint and a lack of reinforcements from Chunyu Yan's Yunchuan Army. This disrupted the offensive strategy and nearly resulted in Qi Army engulfing Bingzhou in a crushing encirclement.
