The Empress was furious and immediately ordered the mobilization of a hundred thousand troops from the southwest border to go to the northwest region to block the rebel army.
At the same time, she commanded Xu Ruyun, the Grand Commander of the Supervision Department, to immediately lead troops to the northwest border, execute the rebel general Chen Xun, and capture the Second Imperial Princess and bring her back to the capital.
Noble Lord advised the Empress to appoint the Third Imperial Princess as the supervising officer to oversee the southwest border defense armyâs operations.
The Third Imperial Princess wanted to make a meritorious contribution, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to completely eliminate the Second Imperial Princessâs influence. Knowing about Noble Lordâs suggestion, she was secretly delighted and willingly offered to serve as the supervising officer.
The Empress agreed and bestowed the Imperial Sword to the Third Imperial Princess, who then set off immediately under the escort of 2,000 garrison battalion soldiers.
Holding the Imperial Sword, the Third Imperial Princess eagerly rushed to the border to meet up with the main army.
Due to the Second Imperial Princessâs rebellion, the northwest border was plunged into chaos and conflict, engulfed in a long-lasting turmoil.

Serene Snow Pavilion.
That night, as promised, Lin Yixuan woke up and opened his eyes.
Lin Qingluo and Mo Canglan were guarding his bedside, checking his injuries.
âSister.â
Lin Yixuanâs blurry vision gradually came into focus, and as he recognized the person guarding his bed, tears immediately filled his eyes.
âYixuan, is your chest hurting? Are you uncomfortable anywhere?â
Lin Qingluoâs eyes were gentle, and she released a soft spiritual power from her palm, gently massaging his scars.
âIt doesnât hurt.â@@novelbin@@
Lin Yixuan looked at his sister affectionately, his gaze lingering on her, unwilling to blink.
âMaster, lookâ¦â
Mo Canglan suddenly cried out in shock, horrified to notice that as Lin Yixuan woke up, his hair was turning from black to white at a visible speed, from the roots to the tips.â
In the end, his hair turned completely white.
âLeaking the secrets of fate, reversing destiny, consuming oneâs life.â
Little Kingfisher flew in from the window and landed on its masterâs shoulder.
âYixuan, tell your sister, before the assassin tried to kill the Emperor, did you see it in advance too?â
Lin Qingluo was startled and subconsciously asked.
âYes.â
Lin Yixuan saw the difference from Mo Canglanâs shocked expression, tears rolling in his eyes and finally streaming down his cheeks.
Little Kingfisher understood, âNot only did he change Noble Lordâs fate, but he also saved the Empress. Leaking the secrets twice in one day, itâs no wonder his hair turned white.â
âHis sensing ability has become stronger, not only having nightmares as warnings but also seeing things during the day.â
Lin Qingluo was deeply shaken and worringly said, âThereâs still no news about the medicinal plants needed to refine the Longevity Pill, it seems we have no choice but to venture into the Secret Realm.â
âIs it the information about the Secret Realm provided by Valley Master Mo last time?â
Little Kingfisherâs spirit brightened, and his small eyes gleamed.
âYes.â
Lin Qingluo nodded slightly.
âMaster, letâs go, letâs venture into the Secret Realm.â
Little Kingfisher happily flapped its wings, extremely excited.
Lin Qingluo looked sad, âYixuanâs injuries havenât healed yet.â
âWith Spirit Pills and Spiritual Medicine, his injuries wonât be a problem.â
Little Kingfisher couldnât wait, urging them on.
âDonât be hasty.â
Lin Qingluo thought carefully, âExploring the Secret Realm is no small matter, we must make thorough preparations.â
âMaster, his pulse is normal, and the wound is healing well.â
Mo Canglan, who couldnât hear the conversation between the human and bird, suppressed the shock in his heart and examined the Little Princeâs injuries.
âThe critical period has passed, and with proper care, he will recover in less than a month.â
Lin Qingluo gathered her thoughts and gently patted Lin Yixuanâs hand, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes.
âSister, Iâm sorry.â
Lin Yixuan choked, âYixuan didnât listen to sister and take the soothing pills, causing trouble for sister again.â
