Chapter 445

Wu Xiucai was also surprised and replied: "General Pan is called Pan Jide. He is a third-rank general. He turned out to be the general of Li Hong, Duke of Zhuguo of Jizhou. After Li Hong died, he was appointed as the Grand Governor of Jizhou where the Chang'an City was located. He was granted the title of General Guide and was in charge of the military of one city and eighteen counties under Jizhou. The capital of Chang'an is his jurisdiction, but why did he suddenly come here? I don't know."

Ye Feng finally had some clue in his mind. It turned out that although General Pan was the same as Fan Xiyuan in terms of rank, his status was naturally higher than Fan Xiyuan because he held military power. In this secret realm of Tianyuan, there were constant wars between the Three Kingdoms, and all countries attached importance to military officers, which was completely different from the Chinese history outside that valued culture over military affairs.

General Pan suddenly arrived, either a surprise inspection or a silver. As the commander of the military region of the Tang Dynasty, his real power was much greater than that of the city guards in Chang'an City.

At this time, there was a lot of people outside the mansion. It seemed that General Pan brought a lot of people over. After a moment, Fan Xiyuan hurried back with a black-faced man, nodded and looked humble.

This man should be Pan Jide. He was wearing a strong suit and a red robe with a tiger and a leopard embroidered on it. His waist was thick and his arms were round. He looked like a martial artist.

General Pan is quite imposing. When he heard Fan Xiyuan say that there was a guest in the main hall, he actually stood there and refused to go in. He shouted: "I am here today to spread the new order of the court and inspect the work and defense affairs outside Chang'an. Anyone who has nothing to do will dodge. No matter what his wife or lady, they will be bombarded away for me."

Ye Feng always felt something was wrong. General Pan was the third rank. Since he was coming to inspect the work, how could he not report it in advance? He pre-passed the official documents, even if it was a random inspection, he would not be so rash. The reason for this is by no means simple.

On the other side, Mrs. Li and the lady had already heard the sound. When Mrs. Li saw General Pan, she was not panicked. Yingying stepped forward, bowed and smiled and said, "It turns out that General Pan is here."

Mrs. Li actually met General Pan. Ye Feng was shocked, and even Wu Xiucai next to him was also surprised.

Pan Jide smiled and said, "Who am I supposed to be? It turns out that he is Mrs. Lian from the Li Mansion. I haven't seen her for many years, and her madam's spirit is still as good as yesterday."

"General Miao Zan, I have been widowed for many years, and I have been yesterday's yellow flower. Is there any other spirit? It's General Pan, you, still as powerful as eight years ago."

The two of them talked nicely to each other, which shows that both sides were afraid of each other's identities.

Pan Jide suddenly looked dark and said seriously: "I heard recently that my wife plans to move her family to the Western Qiang Kingdom. Is there any incident?"

Mrs. Li's face was calm and without any turmoil. She smiled and said, "It's true that this happened, just because my daughter had a engagement with the prince of the Western Qiang Kingdom. I was not at ease to let her marry her alone. I had no relatives or ties here in Chang'an, so I planned to find some time to move over. I will live there for a long time and will not come back."

Pan Jide looked droopy, and took out a yellow scroll from his arms, and said coldly: "I'm afraid you won't be able to leave this time, Madam. The emperor just issued an order to give the little prince a time to choose a concubine this year. I came to Fancheng to guard here this time to spread the emperor's new order. From today on, all the girls who are not married in Chang'an City must be registered and kept for reading. No one is allowed to cross the country. Those who violate the order will be killed!"

Mrs. Li's face changed drastically, and her body trembled twice. Miss Li next to her also changed her face significantly, and her pretty face turned pale immediately.

"How could this happen? Didn't it mean that the selection of concubines will not start after autumn? How could it change? "Mrs. Li asked. The signal revealed by this news was very obvious to her. The reason why the Emperor of Tang dared to issue this order must have been ordered by Tianxuan Sect. Otherwise, he would not dare to issue such orders at all. Even Tianxuan Sect would not dare to force them too much towards their mother and daughter, let alone him, a puppet under Tianxuan Sect.

Mrs. Li couldn't guess the true meaning of why Tianxuan Sect suddenly made such a decision, but one thing is indeed certain. Perhaps it was because she recruited servants to leave Chang'an and wanted to leave Chang'an. Almost everyone in Chang'an City was known to anger the elders in Tianxuan Sect. They finally made a decision to forbid them to leave Chang'an.

Mrs. Li and Li Caixue's faces changed, and Ye Feng saw it clearly from the side.

If it were someone else, naturally I couldn't see anything, but in Ye Feng's eyes, the expressions of Li Caixue and Mrs. Li were slightly different.

Li Caixue's expression was shocked and her eyes were panicked, but Mrs. Li was just shocked and her eyes were not at all panicked.

Obviously, deep down in Mrs. Li, she should have prepared for this news, and she must have already planned it in her heart. Otherwise, the order from the court would have completely cut off her path. In this case, her eyes could not be so calm, but in fact, her eyes were very calm, and the so-called panic was all pretending.

Pan Jide sneered, "Mrs. Lian, I can't control the choice of concubines. The emperor said that whenever I want to choose, I have to choose when. Even the empress dowager criticized this matter, can it still be false? If you don't believe it, I will have the emperor's imperial edict here. Should the lady take a look at it yourself?"

Mrs. Li trembled and took the imperial edict. When she opened it, her face turned pale and she could no longer hold on and she fell to the side.

Miss Li hurriedly held her body and said in surprise: "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

Mrs. Li forced herself to stabilize her body, looked at the imperial edict again, and finally sighed and returned the imperial edict to Pan Jide.

"Mrs. Lian, Miss Li's reputation is four times. I have heard of it. This year, Miss Li will definitely get the courtesan. Madam may as well prepare after going back. Unless the lady gets married in the past two days, I will send someone to the mansion to pick up people after Qingming Festival. If the lady can be selected by the emperor in the end, the lady can naturally enter the palace and become prosperous from now on. I am the governor of Jizhou, which is also a merit. I will never forget the beauty of the lady and the lady in the future."

Mrs. Lian was not in a state of mind at this moment and heard Pan Jide speak sarcastically here, holding Miss Li's hand, and murmured: "Xue'er, let's go."

Seeing that Mrs. Li had excellent acting skills, Ye Feng wanted to laugh, but he could only hold it in his face. When Mrs. Li was about to leave, he had to go with Wu Xiucai and the others and followed Mrs. Lian and the lady out in a quiet voice.

When getting on the bus, Miss Li met Ye Feng, with tears in her eyes, and hatred and resentment.

Ye Fengchi turned his horse's head and thought to himself: "Mrs. Li made a big deal from the beginning, as if to anger the Xuanzong of the Heaven. What was the purpose of her doing this? She also spread everywhere that Li Caixue had already engaged with the son of the King of the Western Qiang and was determined to marry the royal family of the Western Qiang family. What was the purpose of this? Could it be..."

Ye Feng thought of a possibility. If this might be true, then he had to admire Mrs. Li's scheming.

However, no matter how complicated or conspiracy the matter involved, it was not very important to her. His purpose of coming to the Li family was very simple, with only one, which was to pursue the Miss Li and seize her heart. Thinking of this, Ye Feng turned his head and lifted the curtain of the car, and said to Miss Li, who looked sad and resentful inside: "Miss, I'll disturb you. I'll talk to you anyway."

Miss Li was stunned, reached out to cover the curtain of the car and said angrily: "What do you want to say? Just say it. How can I get the style of opening the curtain?"

Ye Feng said: "Miss, you can't explain these words clearly in one sentence. In short, I have a way to help you avoid the disaster of beauty pageant. Do you believe it?"

"What, what can you do?" Miss Li's voice was a little excited, but it quickly suppressed again. Obviously, she couldn't believe the words of a little servant in her heart.
