The door opened slightly.

As if the dust of the years was also gently brushed away, Qi Qiyuan walked into the room.

The room was quiet, with only the sound of Qin Suling's fingertips touching the embroidery cloth. Every stitch and thread contained delicacy and affection. She leaned over it, her expression focused and gentle, like the softest breeze in spring, gently blowing across her heart.

The sunlight filtered through the carved wooden windows, casting mottled shadows, coating her entire body with a layer of light and gold, adding a touch of indescribable softness and tranquility.

Her hair seemed to be stained with the warmth of the sun, swaying gently and exuding a faint fragrance.

"Madam." Qi Qiyuan's voice was low and gentle, like a clear spring in a mountain stream, flowing slowly, but hiding an imperceptible tremor, which was a precursor to the release of long-suppressed emotions.

Upon hearing this, Qin Suling's embroidery needle paused slightly, and then she slowly raised her head. As her eyes moved, it seemed as if stars were twinkling.

A hint of surprise first flashed across her eyes, and then turned into a gentle smile, like a flower blooming in spring, warm and bright. "General, why did you suddenly visit? Has the matter on the border been settled?"

Qi Qiyuan walked forward slowly, gently holding her hands, which were slightly rough from embroidery but still soft, with deep affection in his eyes, as if he wanted to look her deep into his heart. "Madam, I... I am not here for border affairs, but to talk to you from the bottom of my heart. For a long time, I have been waiting silently, just to find a suitable opportunity to reveal my heart to you. Although I am not good at love affairs, I am willing to use everything I have to support you, protect you for the rest of your life, and treat you as a treasure."

Qin Suling let him hold her hand without making a sound, her eyes flashing with complex emotions, which eventually turned into tenderness. "General, you are too kind. I am just a weak woman. How could I deserve such great love from you? But... I am also worried that I cannot match your deep affection."

After she finished speaking, her eyes slightly reddened, her voice was slightly choked, yet she was unusually firm, "But at this moment, I want to believe that as long as two hearts love each other, there is no gap in the world that cannot be crossed."

The two smiled at each other, and all the misunderstandings and estrangements disappeared at this moment, leaving only the deep feelings between them flowing slowly in the air.

Qi Qiyuan gently embraced Qin Suling in his arms, as if he wanted to merge her into his own bones and blood. Everything around them became unimportant, only the sound of each other's heartbeats could be clearly heard.

Outside the window, peach blossoms are in full bloom, and the petals are dancing in the wind, as if silently blessing this relationship that has gone through many twists and turns and finally come to fruition.

However, the good times did not last long, as external disturbances approached quietly like dark clouds.

The political situation in the Dongyue Dynasty is surging, and an undercurrent is surging. A conspiracy against the imperial power and Qi Qiyuan's career is quietly brewing.

One day, a secret letter shot silently into Qi Qiyuan's hands like a sharp arrow in the dark night.

He unfolded the secret letter and his face instantly became solemn. The shocking conspiracy revealed in the letter made him realize that a storm was coming.

Seeing this, Qin Suling had an ominous premonition in her heart. She asked softly, her tone full of concern and worry. "What happened? Why do you look so solemn?"

Qi Qiyuan responded in a deep voice and handed the secret letter to her, his eyes flashing with determination and firmness.

"There are undercurrents in the court, and someone is trying to overthrow the government. I must immediately go to the palace to report this to the emperor."

Qin Suling took the secret letter, glanced through it quickly, then frowned, her eyes full of worry about Qi Qiyuan's safety.

"This journey is extremely dangerous, you must be careful." She held his hand tightly, as if to pass on her strength and courage to him.

Qi Qiyuan gently patted the back of her hand to comfort her. "Don't worry, I know what I am doing. Just wait at home and I will give you a satisfactory answer when I return."

After saying that, he turned and left, his back firm and resolute, leaving Qin Suling alone to face the silence and worry in the room.

However, the development of the situation far exceeded Qi Qiyuan's expectations.

When he stepped into the magnificent imperial palace and presented the secret letter, what awaited him was the emperor's suspicion and the frame-up of treacherous officials in the court.

They used Qi Qiyuan's prestige and power in the army to weave a huge web of lies to bind him tightly.

Faced with this sudden change, although Qi Qiyuan's heart was turbulent, he remained calm and composed.

He knew very well that only with his own wisdom and courage could he turn the tide in this political storm and safeguard the deep affection and commitment in his heart.

In an instant, the world seemed to darken, and Qi Qiyuan was trapped in prison, surrounded by cold and hard stone walls that cut off him from the light. The pain that could not be relieved was like a heavy stone pressing on his heart.

He knew very well that this was not just a matter of life and death for one individual, but also concerned the honor and disgrace of the family and the safety of Qin Suling. If he could not clear himself of the grievances, everything would be in vain.

The moonlight shone through the narrow window onto his resolute face, reflecting the unyielding light in his eyes.

He thought to himself that only by using wisdom to break the impasse and courage to overcome the difficulties could he find a glimmer of hope in this turbulent world.

So, he began to make plans silently in his mind, vowing to fight those evil people to the end until the clouds cleared and the moon appeared.

Qin Suling, who was far away in seclusion, felt heartbroken when she heard the news and her worry was beyond words.

She bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes showing both determination and uneasiness. Her trust in Qi Qiyuan was as unshakable as a rock. She firmly believed in his innocence and did not want to see him bear a false charge.

So, she resolutely decided to mobilize her intricate network of relationships in the palace and use her wisdom to collect evidence for Qi Qiyuan, vowing to clear his name.

Although the two were in two different places, their hearts were closely connected, as if they could cross thousands of mountains and rivers and go to the same bright appointment together.

Every effort Qin Suling made was like the brightest star in the night sky, illuminating the darkness in Qi Qiyuan's heart.

However, the situation in the court is unpredictable.

The false accusations against Qi Qiyuan spread quickly like wildfire, and a political storm against him quietly descended.

The treacherous ministers held great power and acted recklessly. Rumors stabbed Qi Qiyuan like sharp blades, pushing him to the forefront and leaving him isolated and helpless.

Qin Suling's struggle in the harem was also full of difficulties.

With her extraordinary wisdom and extensive network of contacts, she was able to capture some clues that were favorable to Qi Qiyuan, but those evidences seemed so insignificant in front of the powerful enemy and could hardly shake him in the slightest.

What made her even more heartbroken was that she unexpectedly discovered that behind this conspiracy, there was a complicated entanglement between her and Qin Suyu.

Qin Suyu, the person who once had a close connection with her, has now become Qi Qiyuan's most difficult enemy.

This discovery plunged Qin Suling into deep contradiction and struggle.

She had to advocate for Qi Qiyuan, but also had to consider the interests and safety of her family.

Every decision is like dancing on the edge of a knife. If you are not careful, you will be doomed.

Qi Qiyuan also spent every day in prison like a year.

He not only had to endure physical torture, but also had to bear tremendous mental pressure.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, Qin Suling's gentle yet determined gaze would emerge in his mind, becoming the source of strength for him to persevere.

He knew very well that he could not become a burden to Qin Suling and must find a way to prove his innocence as soon as possible.

Finally, by chance, Qi Qiyuan discovered the key clue that could expose the conspiracy.

This clue was hidden very secretly. If he hadn't been meticulous and perceptive, it would have been difficult to find.

He decided to take a risk and used the relationship with his old friends in the army to secretly plan a thrilling prison escape.

The road to prison escape is extremely dangerous, and every step is full of unknowns and dangers.

Qi Qiyuan encountered many dangers and pursuits during his escape, and his life was on the line every time.

But with his extraordinary martial arts and firm will, he managed to escape danger time and time again, and finally escaped successfully and brought the crucial evidence back to the palace.

When Qi Qiyuan presented the evidence to the emperor, the entire court was shocked. The treacherous officials who had framed him were horrified, and the emperor finally saw the truth and cleared Qi Qiyuan's name.

However, the storm did not completely subside.

The treacherous ministers were unwilling to give in and secretly planned a more sinister plot, intending to put Qi Qiyuan and Qin Suling to death.

But now they are no longer fighting alone, but partners who work hand in hand and face the ups and downs together.

They believe that as long as there is love and faith in their hearts, nothing can be overcome.
