This tall horse carrying the Emperor's order directly ran into Pingkang Lane, naturally attracting the attention of many people.
The royal armor of the rider and the unique royal insignia on the horse's head silently told the onlookers that this was an edict from the Imperial Palace, but they did not know which family of Pingkang Lane would receive this honor.
Seeing this tall horse charge into the Phoenix Cry Courtyard, the onlookers slowly dispersed in admiration.
The people outside were envious, but the people in the Phoenix Cabinet were afraid. Looking at General Weiwu, who was getting down from his horse, Mother Lou was already a little afraid. Yesterday, her family head had just beaten up the few Turks that Prime Minister Fang had brought. Today, the imperial guards had come to visit. Could it be that they wanted to chop off the head of the family head?
Forget it. If the royal guards ask later, I'll take all the blame. Anyway, I won't live for long. I've met a family head who can treat prostitutes like us as human beings. It's worth it even if I die.
With this thought in mind, Mother Lou prepared to pounce at the foot of the royal guard to block his path.
However, she didn't expect that the guard would miss her in a flash. The guard didn't mind and went straight upstairs.
"Who are you? Report your name!"
Zhang Fei, who had received the message from the servant boy, stood on the stairs and blocked the guard's way. He shouted sternly.
"Bang!"
"Pa!"
"Ah!"
A few minutes later, Zhang Fei came to Ye Fan's side with the royal guard whose face had been beaten swollen.
"Patriarch, the Emperor wants you to make a trip to the palace and sent this fellow to deliver a message.”
Zhang Fei said to Ye Fan in a low voice after throwing the guard on the ground.
"Later, ask Mother Lou to give two gold ingots to this guard. Just treat it as accidentally injuring big brother's medical expenses.”
"Thank you, Patriarch Ye."
The guard received two ingots of gold and happily returned to the palace first. Ye Fan then sat on a rocking chair and entered the palace.
Under the lead of the eunuch, Ye Fan came to the entrance of the banquet palace where Li Shi Min and the others were.
"Cavalry Emperor, commoner Ye Fan has arrived!”
The eunuch stood outside the palace gate and sang loudly.
"Come in."
Li Shi Min replied casually, and Ye Fan strode into the banquet hall.
In the banquet hall, Li Shimin was kneeling behind the dragon table.
Below Li Shimin, there were ten small tables on each side. The first table on the left was empty, while Fang Xuanling was sitting behind the second table. The fourth and fifth tables were occupied by Du Ruhui, Wei Zheng, and the other civil officials. On the right, there were generals like Li Jing and Li Xiaogong.
"This brat Ye Fan greets the emperor. I wonder why the emperor summoned this brat into the palace today?”
Looking at the arrangement of the table, Ye Fan knew that Li Shimin was going to invite those Turkic envoys from yesterday, but if you want to invite them, then invite me. Why did you invite me? Do you want me to beat them up again?
"Humph!"
Li Shi Min slapped the table in front of him.
"Ye Fan, you're so bold, you actually dare to hit a Turkic envoy?”
Li Shi Min wanted to test Ye Fan and decided to show his strength first.
"Emperor, they're just Turks. Under the majesty of the Emperor of the Great Tang, in Chang 'an of Heaven City, these barbarians dare to bully the people of the Great Tang? I think I've given them a light beating.”
Ye Fan's expression was calm. With just two sentences, he pushed the blame to Li Shi Min and Tang.
Li Er nodded in satisfaction and then stared at Ye Fan.
"However, these people are Turkic envoys. If your beating hurts the peace between the Great Tang and the Turks and the Turkic army invades our borders, our Great Tang will be in trouble again…"
"Emperor, you scared me."
Ye Fan didn't believe Li Shiming's words at all. He looked at Li Shiming and pursed his lips.
"Since you're a Turkic envoy, there's no need to hide. Yesterday, when Prime Minister Fang brought these five Turks to my Phoenix Cry Court, they were dressed in Hu clothing and had even covered their faces with a black veil. They timidly entered the Phoenix Cry Court through the back door.”
"The five you speak of are Turkic envoys, but they can't be envoys of Jie Li Khan. If the kid's guess is correct, these five people have come with Tuli Khagan's heart of submission.”
"This brat wishes the Emperor in advance that he will conquer the Turks and once again open up fertile lands for our Great Tang!”
Ye Fan's words made Li Shi Min feel very comfortable. However, Li Shi Min's eyes turned cold as he stared at Ye Fan for a long time.
"Ye Fan, oh Ye Fan, have you heard of the saying that if you speak too much, you will lose?”
Fang Xuanling and the others immediately became nervous when they heard Li Shiming's words. They were very familiar with Li Shiming's personality and could hear a trace of killing intent in his words.
"Emperor, the Great Tang is the Emperor's Great Tang, and it is also the Great Tang of the people of the Great Tang. The Emperor is the Emperor of the Great Tang, and also the Emperor of my subjects. He is the Son of Heaven, the Father of the Nation, and an elder.”
"As an elder, I will test you. Of course, I will report the truth. Otherwise, he would have failed the Emperor and the other lords 'teachings, and it would appear that he had lost his personal virtue.”
With just a few simple words, Li Shi Min was very happy. He looked at Ye Fan standing below and suddenly felt emotional.
Outside the palace gate, there was another sharp singing.
Li Shi Min waved his hand, straightened his body, and looked at the palace gate with a burning gaze…
