	Because Gaoqing was preoccupied with his duties in that office, Jiming attended the [[Flower Banquet]] of 754 in [[Chang'an]] in his place, accompanied by [[Chen Wu]]. The young man found the splendid bouquets of flowers which blanketed the city on this occasion to be mesmerizingly beautiful, and he felt that it was sad for so many of these to go to waste after the festival was over. He resolved to collect batches of them that were originally meant to be thrown away and donate them to children outside Chang'an. To that end, Jiming and Chen Wu took a flower disposal wagon as their transport out of the [[Xingqing Palace]] grounds once they were ready to return home.<ref name="Dynasty 6" />		Because Gaoqing was preoccupied with his duties in that office, Jiming attended the [[Flower Banquet]] of 754 in [[Chang'an]] in his place, accompanied by [[Chen Wu]].

	While they were moving down the avenue to the gate, a [[Li E\|young man]] spontaneously [[Leap of Faith\|fell right out of the sky]], plunging directly through the wagon roof and landing on the floor in front of Jiming. Miraculously, he was unscathed although the same could not be said for the roof. Jiming stared in confusion at the mysterious stranger with his hand on his sheathed [[sword]], asking who he was, but as soon as the man noticed him, he swiftly lunged at him with a [[Hidden Blade\|wrist blade]] drawn towards his chin. With his other hand pressed against his sword-arm, the signal was clear that he was not to give him away.<ref name="Dynasty 6" />		While they were moving down the avenue to the gate, a [[Li E\|young man]] spontaneously [[Leap of Faith\|fell right out of the sky]], plunging directly through the wagon roof and landing on the floor in front of Jiming.

	At these words, it dawned on Jiming that the stranger was an [[Assassins\|assassin]], but their carriage was stopped at the gates at that moment. The guards informed Chen Wu that they had orders to check every carriage moving in and out of the palace due to the infiltration of a criminal that night, and they shouted at the passengers to come out and report their identities.

	Because the guards recognized his family name, they were embarrassed and tried to explain that they had mistaken him for a commoner by the plain carriage, to which Jiming affably corrected them that he really was a commoner. He almost panicked, however, when they asked if he had chanced upon any suspicious individual.

	The four horsemen charged down at him with swords drawn, but a great, whirlwind sweep with his anti-cavalry sabre brought three of them down at once. The last horseman managed to slash his right arm on his pass, disabling him and leaving Jiming to take a stand with his own sword. Facing his adversary, Jiming tried to persuade him that harming their lives was not necessary if he was only seeking to rob them, but the amused assailant revealed that his boss had no interest in their money and made another pass with his sword. Jiming barely managed to block this attack, and believing that his target's end was near anyways, the rider divulged that he was a retainer of Grand Protector [[Zhang Wanqing]] of [[Boling\|Boling Commandery]], that they had met a few days prior during Jiming's visit, and that his lord had commanded him to seize their heads and offer them as tribute to An Lushan.<ref name="Dynasty 13" />		The four horsemen charged down at him with swords drawn, but a great, whirlwind sweep with his anti-cavalry sabre brought three of them down at once.
