	At the height of the An Lushan Rebellion in 756, the [[Hidden Ones\|Hidden One]] [[Li E]] returned to the village in dire straits following his escape from captivity by the [[Golden Turtles]].<ref name="Dynasty 34" /><ref name="Dynasty 33">''[[Assassin's Creed: Dynasty]]'' – [[The Hidden Ones (Part 1)]]</ref> The Golden Turtles had sabotaged his attempt to unite loyalist forces in [[Changshan Commandery\|Changshan]] with the Tang army defending [[Tong Pass]], resulting in the collapse of both to the imperilment of [[Chang'an]]. Pei Min recognized that it was now the time to reveal the vault to Li E and pass its secrets onto him. At that point, no Assassin had risen to inherit the treasury since the Kaiyuan era (713–741). As Pei Min explained its history to Li E, the Heavenly King's Armor immediately caught Li E's eye, as did Jing Ke after Pei Min had also bestowed the Fish Belly Blade to him. Li E donned the Heavenly King's Armor, repurposed the Fish Belly Blade as a new [[Hidden Blade]], armed himself with five [[jian]] and a [[crossbow]], and finally departed with Jing Ke as his main weapon of choice.<ref name="Dynasty 34" />		At the height of the An Lushan Rebellion in 756,<ref name="Timeline">''[[Assassin's Creed: Dynasty]]'' – [[Record of Major Events in Tianbao Year 14]]</ref> the [[Hidden Ones\|Hidden One]] [[Li E]] returned to the village in dire straits following his escape from captivity by the [[Golden Turtles]].<ref name="Dynasty 34" /><ref name="Dynasty 33">''[[Assassin's Creed: Dynasty]]'' – [[The Hidden Ones (Part 1)]]</ref> The Golden Turtles had sabotaged his attempt to unite loyalist forces in [[Changshan Commandery\|Changshan]] with the Tang army defending [[Tong Pass]], resulting in the collapse of both to the imperilment of [[Chang'an]].

			Following Pei Min's advice, Li E proceeded to [[Pingyuan]] to beseech its [[grand protector]], [[Yan Zhenqing]], to form an alliance with Qinghe and reinvigorate Hebei's counter-rebellion against Lushan.<ref name="Dynasty 34" /> Zhenqing needed little persuasion, not least of all because his brother [[Yan Gaoqing]], as Grand Protector of Changshan, and nephew [[Yan Jiming]] had both been executed by Lushan. With access to the Northern Treasury Under Heaven, Zhenqing was able to immediately raise fresh troops and provide them with both equipment and training while Li E gathered a special team consisting of eight survivors from Changshan to journey to the capital and [[Mawei Station mutiny\|assassinate]] the Golden Turtles.<ref name="Dynasty 35">''[[Assassin's Creed]]'' – [[The Hidden Ones (Part 3)]]</ref>
