As the dynasty weakened, the Turks took advantage of the weakness and invaded the border areas frequently. In the Battle of Mayi, the third prince Li Ze led the troops into battle and bought twenty years of peace for the Tang Dynasty at a great cost.
He was about to return to Xijing and exchange his military exploits for the world. The people were full of expectations, and there were cheers both inside and outside the court. Only the female prisoner burst into tears amidst the dust and smoke raised by the horses.

The leaders of the Turks were cunning and changeable, and the Central Plains people who settled in the territory of the Turks had a hard time. After the defeat, they all became prisoners of the Tang Dynasty, with the men as slaves, the women as maids, and the unlucky ones as prostitutes.

Two years later, Xiao Bing served as a Hanlin scholar and brought her to Chang'an, Xijing, at the feet of the emperor.
