Fang Yunheng is the child born to the late emperor Bai Yueguang.
At that time, the Great Zhou was in turmoil. Xuanyuan Mo was 5 years old. The late emperor was seriously injured when he led the army to fight. Fang Yunheng, who was only 12 years old, became regent under the late emperor's order.
He was mature beyond his years and worked hard to govern the country. He also sent troops to repel the barbarians and recover lost territories. He was well-known both in the court and among the people. Xuanyuan Mo was very wary of him. After he grew stronger, he was determined to take back the imperial power.
Fang Yunheng knew that he would die if he lost his power, so the two sides started a tug-of-war. Most of the time, Xuanyuan Mo made the moves and Fang Yunheng countered them.
Until the last time Xuanyuan Mo annoyed Fang Yunheng and smeared "Luo Hui" on the arrow that hit him.
The two sides were already fighting to the death and were confronting each other on the banks of the Yellow River.
Wen Qinning was released from the palace. Xuanyuan Mo did not kill her because of their past friendship, but Lord Wen was not so lucky. His house was raided because of corruption and bribery. It was said that the things found were enough to equal one-third of the national treasury.

His face turned even paler.
She ate breakfast in silence. Yan Li asked her to sit at the door while he went to dig the mountain.
On the third day, Hua Ling prepared breakfast and Yan Li came out.
"Wait, there's no need to dig the mountain today."
On the fourth day, after Hua Ling made breakfast, Yan Li still didn't come out, so she knocked on Yan Li's door.
After a while, Yan Li opened the door and quickly closed it again.
Hua Ling smelled blood.
Although Yan Li tried to hide it, Hua Ling could still see that he was very weak. He only ate a little breakfast and stopped moving. "I'll take you down the mountain later."
Hua Ling vaguely guessed something and pursed her lips.
