The new emperor Xiao Heng had just ascended the throne. The concubines of the harem eloped with their guards, and the officials even urged him to fulfill his wishes.

He cleverly used the war general's case to reclaim military power, lure the enemy into the scheme to quell external threats, and restored order to the Dayao realm.
