After failing the imperial examination, he began to wield immense power after entering the palace!

"What did you say?"

King Wei thought he had misheard and subconsciously asked a question.

Li Fan looked at this self-important and noble prince and patiently repeated it again.

"My order is to immediately seize the Prince of Wei and imprison him in the Ministry of Justice's prison."

"Your Highness, please."

The King of Wei's face first froze, then turned red, and finally turned ashen.

It's not enough that a eunuch arrested the Prefect of the Capital; now they want to arrest a prince too. It's utterly outrageous.

Everyone else was dumbfounded.

What exactly is this eunuch Gao up to?

Zhang Miaozhen was somewhat worried.

After all, this is a prince with real power; he's not someone to be trifled with!

"Ha ha ha ha……"

King Wei suddenly burst into laughter, his laughter filled with anger and absurdity.

"Come on, come on!"

"I, the King, stand right here!"

"Who dares to arrest me?!"

His gaze swept over the Imperial Guards present, his eyes as sharp as knives.

"Not one of you should be spared; if anyone dares to lay a finger on me, I will exterminate their entire family!"

The Imperial Guard soldiers looked at each other, their feet rooted to the ground, none daring to move.

The Prince of Wei is a member of the imperial family; he is His Majesty's younger brother.

If you mess with him, you'll lose your head.

King Wei was pleased with himself as he observed the reactions of these people.

Sure enough, only this little eunuch is mentally unstable to dare offend me.

Everyone else was sober, and no one dared to touch a prince.

"You dog eunuch, didn't you want to arrest me?"

"Where are your men? Why am I still standing here?"

Li Fan looked at his arrogance without saying a word.

King Wei thought he was afraid, so he sneered and turned to leave.

"I'd like to see how you die at tomorrow's court assembly."

"King Wei, please wait."

A young, slightly trembling voice suddenly rang out from the ranks of the Imperial Guards.

The King of Wei paused and turned around.

A young Imperial Guard soldier stepped out from the ranks.

"By order of Imperial Envoy Eunuch Gao, Your Highness Prince Wei is invited to the Ministry of Justice prison."

He extended his hand and made a "please" gesture.

King Wei's face instantly darkened to the extreme. How could there really be someone so foolish as to come and capture him?

"What's your name?"

The young man's Adam's apple bobbed, but his back remained ramrod straight.

"Chen Tie".

The King of Wei said with a grim face, "I will remember you."

But Li Fan stepped forward and said very seriously, "Instead of remembering him, King Wei should remember our family. If you have any grudges, come at our family anytime."

King Wei gave Li Fan a sinister look, his eyes filled with resentment.

"Consort Xie has raised a fine dog, but remember this: how you got me thrown into the Ministry of Justice prison today is how you'll be begging me to get out tomorrow."

Li Fan smiled but did not respond.

"take away!"

When Cao Mo saw that the King of Wei had also been taken away, he felt as if all his strength had been drained away, his legs went weak, and he almost collapsed.

This little eunuch has gone mad.

He's completely gone mad.

Zhang Miaozhen gripped her sword and walked to Li Fan's side.

In the sunlight, her phoenix eyes were filled with complex emotions: shock, worry, and something else that was hard to describe.

"Eunuch Gao, that's the Prince of Wei."

"You've thrown him into the Ministry of Justice's prison; you've really stirred up a hornet's nest."

Li Fan turned around, looked at her strikingly handsome face, and smiled as he comforted her.

"It's not a big problem, Miss Zhang. You should go back and rest. We need to go to the palace to report."

Zhang Miaozhen opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end, she said nothing.

"Grandpa Gao, take care."

Then she turned around, picked up her sword, and strode away.

Princess Anle had emerged from the Cao residence at some point and was standing three steps away.

The bright red skirt fluttered gently in the wind, and the golden phoenix embroidered on the hem shimmered in the sunlight.

"You dog slave, you've offended Uncle Wei, he'll definitely kill you."

"But if you kneel down and beg me now, I might spare your life if I'm in a good mood."

"So? Are you going to beg or not?"

She tilted her head, a slight smile playing on her lips, as if waiting for a good show.

Looking at that bright and smug face, Li Fan couldn't resist the urge to tease her.

"Thank you for your kindness, Princess."

"No need."

After saying that, he turned around, lifted the curtain, and got into the carriage.

"you!"

Princess Anle's face flushed red instantly, and her chest heaved violently with anger.

That lackey actually refused?

She, a princess, condescended to help him, and he actually said it wasn't necessary—it's simply outrageous!

"You dog servant! Halt! You stop right there!"

But the carriage did not stop.

The carriage curtain fell, blocking her view.

"drive!"

The driver cracked his whip.

The carriage rumbled along the long street and soon disappeared ahead.

Princess Anle stood there, trembling with anger. She stomped her foot hard, and a faint tingling sensation came from her buttocks.

It felt like a scalding hot hand was slapping it repeatedly through the thin fabric.

The pain and numbness spread from her buttocks to her limbs, making her feel weak on one side.

"You ungrateful bastard, you shameless lackey!"

"Damn it..."

Princess Anle could only turn around and walk towards her carriage, but she felt an increasing resentment towards this scoundrel.

Two days from now, this princess will definitely not let you off the hook!

……

Not long after.

As soon as Li Fan entered the palace, he was stopped.

A maid stood in the middle of the road, dressed in a light green palace dress, her waist tightly cinched, her breasts full, and her legs long and straight.

She had a pretty face and a polite smile on her lips.

"Eunuch Gao, please wait."

When Li Fan saw that the maid was followed by seven or eight eunuchs, who were openly guarding both sides, he knew that the newcomer was up to no good.

"What can I do for you, ma'am?"

The maid smiled and said, "Yinxing has come on the orders of Her Majesty the Empress to escort Eunuch Gao to the Qianqing Palace."

Her tone was respectful, but her demeanor left no room for refusal.

This is not a discussion, it's an order!

Empress Yang.

Li Fan's heart skipped a beat.

This was Consort Xie's mortal enemy, the backer of a powerful family in Guanzhong, and the true power holder in the harem.

He had just sent Cao Mo and the King of Wei to prison when the Empress came knocking on his door.

What should I do?

But since the other side has sent people to block the road, it's impossible not to go. Now we can only hope that Leng Shuangqiu can receive the message and come over as soon as possible.

"Please lead the way, Sister Ginkgo."

Yinxing looked at the submissive smile plastered on his face, and a hint of satisfaction flashed in her almond-shaped eyes.

"Eunuch Gao is indeed sensible. Let's go."

She turned and walked ahead, her waist slender and her hips rounded beneath her light green palace dress.

Her long legs were partially visible beneath her skirt, and she walked with a graceful gait, like a willow swaying in the wind.

Li Fan followed behind, his gaze involuntarily falling on her legs.

That woman has really long legs.

A short while later.

Li Fan arrived at the Qianqing Palace.

Ginkgo stopped at the entrance of a side hall and whispered:

"Her Majesty is waiting for you inside. Please go in."
