On a beautiful day when the sun bathed the palace, Yun Mengting and her colleagues, like industrious hummingbirds, busily and productively advanced the reconstruction work. Every detail revealed their anticipation for the future, like the tender sprouts of hope growing on this land. However, despite the apparent peace, Yun Mengting harbored a hidden unease.

Night always fell quietly, and the silence at that time seemed even more eerie. Whenever Yun Mengting lay alone in bed, a sense of unease would always surge in her heart, like a wolf lurking in the darkness, eager for an opportunity, waiting for the moment to pounce.

That day, sunlight filtered through the emerald green willow leaves, illuminating every corner of the palace courtyard. Yun Mengting was absorbed in her medical research when a sudden, hurried commotion erupted from outside. She set down her scroll and hurried out of the room, only to find a group of guards gathered nervously, their faces solemn.

"What happened?" Yun Mengting's voice was clear, firm, and full of concern.

"Some suspicious figures were spotted around the palace. They were having a secret meeting." A guard reported to her, beads of sweat on his forehead highlighting his nervous expression.

Her heart tightened, and Yun Mengting had no time to hesitate. Liu Tianjiao's shadow still loomed. "Take me to see it!" she said without hesitation, the sense of urgency within her spreading like an oppressive tide.

The guards quickly led her to the hidden bamboo forest where the suspicious activity was taking place. It was quiet and mysterious. Moonlight filtered through the dense bamboo leaves, casting dappled shadows, and the occasional chirping of cicadas around her added a rhythmic rhythm. She held her breath, her ears perked up, trying to detect the sounds lurking in the air, like a hunter in the night.

As we approached the depths of the bamboo forest, we could vaguely see a group of men in black gathered around a campfire, whispering to each other. The flickering flames illuminated their tense and hurried faces, casting distorted shadows that made them look like ghosts in the darkness, a chilling sight.

"We must not underestimate the palace's defenses." A man in black spoke in a low voice, his tone revealing a sinister tone. "Although they seem to be temporarily at peace, Yun Mengting cannot withstand our true power. Our plan will be implemented on the night of the next full moon."

"If we can catch her, everything will change!" Another man in black laughed sinisterly, almost jumping up and down with excitement. His fanatical gaze was like a beast ready to tear through the night sky, which made people feel terrified.

Listening to their conversation, Yun Mengting's heart suddenly trembled, like thunder across the night sky, instantly awakening her vigilance. Time was running out, and she hurriedly signaled the guards to retreat quickly, striving to bring the information back to the palace as soon as possible.

After returning to the palace, Yun Mengting immediately summoned Shen Jingxuan and Ling Xuan, her expression solemn and her gaze determined. The three of them sat together, the pressure on their hearts growing heavier, like a huge rock about to collapse.

"If they really plan to implement their plan on the next full moon night, we must prepare in advance!" Shen Jingxuan clenched his fists, his tone sonorous and powerful, as if he was preparing to go all out for the upcoming decisive battle.

"I will immediately strengthen the palace's defenses to ensure everything goes smoothly." Ling Xuan said without hesitation, his eyes gleaming with fighting spirit. He knew that this battle not only depended on the fate of the three men, but also on the safety of every resident of the palace.

Yun Mengting stared at the two men, unyielding faith surging in her heart. "We must unite and urgently formulate a thorough plan. We must not let their conspiracy succeed. Tonight's peace is both an illusion and our chance to strike back!"

As the discussion deepened, the three gradually developed a comprehensive defense plan. Yun Mengting, leveraging her medical expertise, restructured the seemingly simple guard mission into an emergency standby defense line, while Shen Jingxuan and Ling Xuan were responsible for organizing intensive training for the guards, improving their vigilance and combat effectiveness.

Time slipped away amidst the frantic and hectic preparations, the full moon approaching. The fleeting days masked the forebodings of a storm, and every corner of the palace exuded a hidden, tense atmosphere. The guards stood like watchmen in the night sky, alert and resolute.

Finally, the full moon arrived. The bright moon hung high in the sky, gleaming a cold light that seemed to illuminate everyone's heart. Yet, beneath this silvery moonlight, a hidden undercurrent was quietly surging. From the heights of the palace, Yun Mengting, Shen Jingxuan, and Ling Xuan gazed at the night sky, their emotions composed, yet a tinge of nervousness flared up within them.

"No matter how dark it is, the light will eventually return." Yun Mengting's voice was soft but firm, like the rising stars in the night sky, illuminating the courage deep in her heart.

"We will definitely win." Shen Jingxuan clenched his fists, the flame of hope burning in his eyes, full of confidence.

"Tonight, the palace will face a new trial." Ling Xuan calmly drew out his sword, the blade flickering in the moonlight, as if it were a star that would shine in the darkness, symbolizing their common belief and fearless courage.

The wind and clouds are rising, a hidden storm is about to come, and they are ready to meet this unprecedented challenge.
