C4 Jang-hen triumph
When Ye Dong received the imperial edict, he left for the capital. Halfway through, he received another royal decree: the Southern barbarians wanted to fish for some benefits while the Great Dream had just finished a war, so Ye Dong had to change routes to deal with the Southern barbarians.
Ye Dong had only used three days to completely destroy the wolf's ambitions in the Southern Barbarians, so it was not suitable for him to have another long battle. Ye Dong had led ten men to sneak into the Barbarians' camp when they were the most exhausted and relaxed in the morning, and had captured the leader of the Southern Barbarians.
The news came one after another. Ye Dong was surprised by the enthusiasm of the passersby even before he got to the capital. He just got to the capital and glanced at his five wives in the crowd. He was then summoned to the palace.
Ye Dong was kneeling on the floor listening to the eunuchs' chanting, and he was secretly watching the dream emperor.
The Emperor of Great Dream was just a seventeen or eighteen year old teenager. Although he already had a heroic spirit in his eyes when he ascended to the throne, because of the previous emperor, a large portion of his power had fallen into the hands of his uncle, King Qing.
Although the little emperor was eager to have his own power, he still wanted to appoint a new man, but he still had to see the king's expression. The reason why Ye Dong was able to hold the position of deputy general was because of the strong recommendation from several old officials of the royal court, which showed how difficult it was for the little emperor to make any move.
After looking at the little king, Ye Dong started to look for the real owner of Great Dream - the King of Qing.
He was clearly standing before the emperor, but his aura was even more imposing than the young emperor's. The direction in which the officials were kneeling towards looked like they were facing the young emperor, but anyone with a discerning eye would be able to tell that they were facing King Qing. Not only did the King of Qing not need to bow when he saw the Emperor, the Emperor still had to call him uncle. Ye Dong then thought of the days when the King of Qing acted like a son of heaven, ordering the princes to act like a hero, but he didn't know if the King of Qing would be any better than Cao Cao.

While Ye Dong was lost in thought, the long eulogy that was like a graduation thesis was finally finished. The officials all expressed their gratitude.
"God bless the dream, God bless the king, God bless General Ye Dong."
On the other hand, the young emperor was full of arrogance. He waved his hand and said,
"Everyone, please rise."
"Thank you, your majesty!"
Ye Dong stood up, his clothes fluttered as he wanted to return to his original position, but he did not expect the eunuch to issue another edict:
"General Ye Dong, accept your order!"
Mag chicken!
Ye Dong thought about the eighteen generations of the emperor's ancestors and then kneeled on the floor again.
"This official accepts the decree!"
Eunuch Liu's sharp duck-like voice once again reverberated in the great hall:
"With the blessing of the heavens, the emperor decreed that the Great Dream's two consecutive wars had been saved by Ye Dong's superb military skills and had kept his power to a great extent. "Therefore, I will now seal …"
All of a sudden, a subject interrupted Eunuch Liu's speech. This meant that the little emperor had no real power. Otherwise, which official would dare to commit such a public offense?
"I think the king should think twice. Ye Dong's origin is unknown and he let two princes go. I think there is a reason to suspect the relationship between Ye Dong and the Turks."
"Impudent! Who gave you the guts to interrupt the imperial edict?!"
Before the emperor could make a sound, the Duke of Qing stepped forward.
Ye Dong sneered. In the entire country, if there was no King Qing backing them, who would be willing to go against the king? The person who was so full that he could stand had come to question that he was a newbie. He had even been charged with an extremely absurd crime of treason.
"Uncle Wang, Lord Liu is too eager to serve the country and has his own reasons, but Lord Liu is indeed too impatient. How about this, I'll punish him to stay at home and meditate for three days!"
After saying that, the Emperor looked at the King with a questioning gaze. Seeing that he didn't express anything, he heaved a sigh of relief.
Ye Dong raised his head and looked at the king.
"This subject has something to say!"
A look of disbelief flashed through the emperor's eyes.
"Your Majesty, please speak."
Ye Dong stood up and walked over to Lord Liu.
"Lord Liu, you can't bully him just because the emperor is young and ignorant and generous. Going against the emperor is against the laws of the dream. The emperor wants you to go home and think about it. You have to bring your entire family to thank him."
Ye Dong wasn't really defending the king, he just wanted revenge.
Lord Liu seemed to recall the great dream. Ye Dong then continued,
"Firstly, Lord Liu suspects that this one's background is unknown. This subject believes that the emperor's wise men must have known that this subject came from Shandong and was an orphan since childhood. Later on, those who joined the army in Shangjing settled down in the capital.
Ye Dong's life in the past was truly wonderful. Ye Dong's memories were like watching a movie. He was amazed.
The Emperor nodded.
"What my beloved lady said is indeed correct."
Those who were able to hold important positions in the army were all sent by the emperor to investigate.
"Apart from this expedition, this official has never even seen a Turkic before, let alone had any contact with the Turkic royalty. Then Lord Liu's suspicion was a baseless framing! "This official is on the frontlines with his brothers. This official knows that this official is young and has no one to rely on, so in the eyes of many adults, this official is not strong enough. However, this subject is determined to serve the country."
Ye Dong's every word was spoken from the bottom of his heart. He even started crying. In fact, he didn't feel wronged about Dou Er's reappearance.
Ye Dong was confident that as long as he wanted to join the show industry, he would be able to get a movie actor.
"You are being too serious, Master Ye. Master Liu is just worried about the country."
King Qing looked at Ye Dong.
Ye Dong ignored the warning in King Qing's eyes, and started twitching,
"This subject is also thinking for the people of Great Dream. If the war went on, it would cost the people and their money, and the treasury would be empty for a long time. But there were still the Southern barbarians in the south who were eyeing our Great Dream's land, and instead of fighting with the clams, it would be better for the Great Dream to negotiate with the Turkic Empire for the time being. The Turk wants me to dream only of the necessities of life and armor, but the Turk also has the horses and minerals we need in our dreams. We sell them the goods we produce, but we can get the materials and strong horses from him. When that time comes, no matter how powerful they might be, they would still be the land of Great Dream, don't you all have the ambition to look down on the entire world?! "
Looking at the silent officials and the king lost in his thoughts, Ye Dong quickly changed his mind and respectfully said,
"Moreover, this subject will return the two princes to the Turkic Kingdom together, because when these two princes tried to seize the throne of the Turk, it would also be a waste for the Turk, rather than simply killing two princes who are of no use, there are many other princes in the Turk as well, so it would be better to give face to the Turk and secretly mess with the two princes. No matter if it's the first prince or the third prince, when they become the King of Turkic, their old rival will always be better than their new opponent. "
The Emperor nodded.
"My beloved lady is indeed a talented person!"
"Your majesty, I heard that Lord Ye Dong can move freely in a magnificent army like no one else. I wonder if I can ask Lord Ye Dong to guide my men so that they can know what it means to have someone above me!"
A general stepped forward.
It really happened again and again before the situation settled down, and they didn't allow others to rest.
"This subject accepts the challenge!"
Ye Dong and everyone else had been transferred to the military field outside the capital. Ye Dong faced the five hundred elite soldiers. He took the spear and broke it without even looking at it.
Ye Dong's action caused an uproar.
