"Long Fan, what did you say to Li Xian?”
After Li Longfan followed Li Xian, Xue Chongjian pulled Li Longfan and slowed down his pace as he asked.
" Cousin," Li Longfan spread his hands and said," My brother has used up all the savings of my imperial estate for a few years. I'll ask when he can return it to me."”
"Return it to you?" Xue Chongjian sneered. Now that he has been demoted to a commoner and is all alone, do you think he can afford it?”
"Only you would lend it to him."
"Not only will you lose money and food, but if the Sage Emperor makes a move, you might also be implicated!”
Li Longfan pretended to change his expression, but he sneered in his heart.
He was not stupid. He could judge who was good to him.
If he did dirty things for his father, would he have a good end in the future?
On the contrary, it was Imperial Brother who sent him away despite knowing the danger.
As for the Sacred Emperor, would he care? Did she have her blood in their veins?
Was he her grandson?
No!
……
"Long Fan just informed me that the officials of the court have arrived at the old city in civilian clothes.”
Li Xian and Qiao Junbei walked in front and said with a smile.
Qiao Junbei smiled bitterly in his heart.
He didn't know how Li Xian got the news so quickly.
However, he knew very well that Li Xian had told him.
It was a test to see him as one of their own.
He was very sure that even if he reported this matter to the Saint Emperor Wu Zetian.
The Sage Emperor couldn't find any clues either.
Since Li Xian dared to say it, he must have been fully prepared.
Qiao Junbei quickly reminded him." With your identity, it is indeed taboo to make armor. You'd better think of a way to prove your innocence in front of Lord Di and the others.”
"After all, Milord isn't by the Sage Emperor's side, and gossip is a fearful thing.”
Qiao Junbei did not have the courage to gamble with Li Xian.
However, he was also willing to accept Li Xian's good intentions, so he restrained himself and leaned slightly towards Li Xian.
It seemed like a plan.
Actually, it was more of a reminder.
There was no real strategy.
Li Xian knew what Qiao Junbei was thinking.
He was not prepared to let the other party follow him.
He was just taking the opportunity to test Qiao Junbei's inclination.
He smiled and nodded. Just as he was about to speak, he saw Di Renjie and the others riding over from afar.
"He's here!"
he said and quickly walked up to her.
"I, Li Xian, pay my respects to all of you.”
"Li Xian, I heard that you are secretly forging armor!”Without waiting for the others to speak, Wu Sansi scolded coldly,""What? You finally can't hold it in anymore and can't wait to rebel?”
"If you plead guilty now, you can still live. The Holy Emperor already knows everything. If you resist stubbornly, you will definitely beg for death!”
Li Xian raised his head and looked at Wu Sansi. He said mockingly,""Secret forging? How did you know?"
"How did the imperial court know?"
"I am forging openly!"
"You, Wu Sansi, are stupid. Do you think that Imperial Grandmother is also stupid?”
* Cough cough *
Wu Chengsi coughed a few times and warned with a cold expression,"Li Xian, don't disrespect the Sage Emperor!”
" County Magistrate Li, we've seen a lot on the way here. You've made great contributions in the old city. Since you said that forging armor has nothing to do with rebellion, explain yourself. What do you want?"”
"Yes, sir!"
Li Xian cupped his fists and said,"I've already ordered people to forge two sets of equipment. Why don't you get someone to bring them over? I'll explain it to you as I demonstrate."”
"Sure."
Li Xian nodded at Qiao Junbei after receiving his approval.
After a while.
Qiao Junbei brought dozens of blacksmiths with him and returned with two sets of shiny armor.
Di Renjie and the others looked at the armor curiously.
Li Xian took off his coat in front of everyone.
He opened his arms.
Two blacksmiths carried a chest plate and a back plate forged from a whole piece of iron and helped Li Xian put them on.
Then, the bracer.
After putting on the helmet, his face was completely covered except for his eyes.
The lower half of his body was also completely connected by a pair of leg armor made of cowhide.
Even his wrists were protected.
He was like a steel behemoth.
With the help of two blacksmiths, he climbed onto the warhorse.
Another two people were carrying a long sword made of bamboo that was ten feet long.
The sword hilt was wrapped in iron, and the tip of the sword was embedded with an iron fist.
Everyone looked on curiously.
Even Xue Chongjian and the others were the same.
This was the first time they had seen a full set of equipment.
"This is a competitive game similar to polo," said Li Xian, his face covered in armor.”
" It's to enrich the daily lives of the people in the old city.”
"This lowly official calls this game the Glory of the Great Tang.”
"The rules of the game are very simple.”
"We'll ride our horses and stand at the two ends of this wide field, on both sides of the fence.”
"Then, they will charge at each other with the bamboo sword raised. When the two sides meet, they will aim at each other and use the iron fist in front of them to collide with the force generated by the horse's acceleration.”
"No one who falls off the horse wins."
Everyone's expression changed.
How much force did the high-speed collision of the warhorses have?
This was much more dangerous and exciting than polo.
Everyone quickly understood Li Xian's purpose.
Li Xian wanted to promote this exciting competition and name it Great Tang Glory.
Let the people of the world remember the Great Tang once again!
"Li Xian, it's Wu Zhou now! Without the Sage Emperor's permission, if you make your own decisions, you'll die a horrible death!”Wu Sansi warned coldly.
Humph!
Li Xian snorted coldly. Everyone saw the disdain in his eyes.
"What, you want to send someone to assassinate me again?”
"I'll wait!"
"If you have the ability, why don't you all make a Wu Family Pig and Dog Glory!”
"In order to give everyone a more realistic demonstration, Wu Sansi, do you dare to compete with me according to the rules of the competition?”
Wu Sansi hesitated.
Even if the warhorses were protected by armor, could they guarantee their safety?
"Could it be that the King of Liang doesn't dare to?" "If you don't dare, then how about this woman do it for you?"”
Wu Sansi's face twitched.
Li Lingyue was mocking him. He was worse than a woman.
Alright, I'll take this opportunity to kill this little bastard!
A sinister look flashed across Wu Sansi's eyes as he looked at Li Xian." We can compete, but we have to sign a life-and-death agreement!”
"Sure!"
Li Xian didn't even want to agree.
"Qiao Junbei, prepare some ink and paper!"
"Li Longfan, ring the gong and inform the people in the city to watch the show!”
