Princess Chang Le was grounded.
Li Shi Min said that for her safety, she couldn't leave the palace during this period of time. As for Ye Qiu, he would get someone to find him…and bring him here.
Chang Le had no choice.
He could only obey his father's orders.
Ye Qiu didn't know that Li Shi Min's men were all over the streets looking for him.
He bought a bag full of food and planned to leave Chang 'an City at night.
They had just reached the city gate.
Ye Qiu heard the voices of discussion.
"Why is the city gate closed?"
"I heard that it was to catch Turkic dogs.”
"What do you think these Turks are doing in Chang 'an instead of staying in the grasslands? Aren't they courting death?”
"Things are different now. Do you think they can stay in the grasslands? The Imperial Court is currently using troops against the Turks, and General Manager Li Jing has already led two hundred thousand soldiers into the Turks. The Turkic Khagan probably can't even sleep at night.”
The group of people discussed.
Capture the Turks?
Hadn't he already killed those Turks?
Could it be that they had accomplices in Chang 'an?
Ye Qiu looked at the tightly shut city gate and sighed helplessly.
"Looks like we can't leave now."
Ye Qiu circled the city wall and observed.
He wondered if he should use his lightness skill to climb over the city wall at night. His Wudang Cloud Ladder had already reached the top level. Although the city wall of Chang 'an was very high, it should not be a problem for him to climb over it.
Hehehe…
Ye Qiu smiled.
I, Ye Qiu, am a bird flying in the sky. Do you think the small city walls of Chang 'an can stop me?
"Chirp…"
At this moment, a bird chirped. Ye Qiu looked up and saw a crow flying out of the city wall.
A general on the city wall raised his bow and arrow.
The iron arrow pierced through Crow's body.
The crow screamed and fell to the ground, freezing.
Ye Qiu was stunned.
He couldn't help but wipe his sweat.
How could he have overlooked the Chang 'an garrison? The soldiers guarding this place were the most elite of the Great Tang…
If they stayed here, not a single bird could fly out.
If he were to climb over the city wall in the middle of the night, he would probably be treated as an assassin. Then, what awaited him would probably be a thousand arrows piercing his heart.
Ye Qiu wiped his sweat.
Forget it, forget it. He couldn't afford to offend her.
" Master, what are you afraid of? You already have an indestructible divine body. Even the powerful Qin Bow can't harm you…"
"What do you know!"
Ye Qiu looked down on the system.
"Haven't you heard of the saying,'A hero will immediately fall to his death, and a person who knows how to swim will drown in the river…' Don't think that you can act tough just because you have some ability, or you will die a miserable death. Who knows if there are any powerful figures among these guards, and we haven't violated the laws of the Great Tang.”
Ye Qiu lifted the bag on his shoulder.
Then, he strode toward the city gate.
"Cough, cough, cough."
Ye Qiu coughed a few times.
Then, he asked," Little brother, I want to ask around. When will your city gate open? I still have an 80-year-old mother at home. She's waiting for me to go back and bring food. Can you make an exception…"
The city guard looked at Ye Qiu in shock.
"You have an 80-year-old mother? How old are you?"
he asked in surprise.
Ye Qiu was stunned. He knew that he had misspoken, but he still defended himself and said,"No, no, I was wrong. I have an eight-year-old son at home…"
The guard looked at Ye Qiu.
Suddenly, he said coldly,"Your name is Ye Qiu, right?"”
"Oh, yeah…Uh, how did you know?”
Ye Qiu was a little surprised. Could it be that his popularity was already so high? It seemed that this was his first time in Chang 'an.
Before Ye Qiu could think further.
The guard took out a portrait.
It was none other than Ye Qiu himself!
" Ye Qiu, we've been waiting for you for a long time. Come with us…" The guard said calmly. Ye Qiu turned around and saw that he was surrounded by hundreds of guards.
Everyone looked like they were eyeing him covetously.
There was also a tanned brawny man who bared his teeth at him.
" What are you doing? Are you guys mistaken? I'm a good person…" Ye Qiu took a step back, planning to sneak away at any time. This lineup didn't look friendly.
"Ye Qiu, don't even think about hiding. His Majesty wants to see you.”
The tanned man walked over.
"Can I not see him?"
Ye Qiu asked weakly.
The burly man's face was already dark, and it became even darker now. He said angrily,"It's your great honor that His Majesty wants to see you. What are you waiting for?”
"Alright then."
Hearing that Li Shi Min wanted to see him, Ye Qiu heaved a sigh of relief. Coming to the Great Tang and meeting this famous emperor wasn't a bad thing.
