Yizhou, Tianfu City.
At the Yizhou Provincial Governor's residence.
The provincial governor, Lord Zhang, was bossing around on the armchair.
The mediocre people in the manor peeled the green grapes and used crushed ice to prepare them before serving them to Lord Zhang.
Lord Zhang ate the cold grapes as he listened to the report from the Yizhou Biejia.
The Yizhou Don't Driver was an official under the fifth rank, the second in command of Yizhou.
However, because of the arrival of the King of Shu, Li Ke, his second-in-command position became the third-in-command.
The Yizhou Donghuang bowed and respectfully reported to Lord Zhang,
"Your Excellency, all the memorials that we have slandered the King of Shu have been submitted to His Majesty's Dragon Case.”
The Provincial Governor, Lord Zhang, frowned and said sternly,"
"What slander? That was clearly what the King of Shu did after entering Shu! You really don't know how to talk!"
The Yizhou Donghuang hurriedly said,
"Your Excellency is right. This lowly servant was rude! I will definitely correct it!"
Only then did Lord Zhang nod his head in satisfaction, indicating for him to continue.
The Yizhou Dongha didn't dare to be negligent and continued,"
"Milord, the memorials regarding General Ye's daughter's marriage with the King of Shu and her pregnancy have also been submitted, but His Majesty does not believe them.”
Provincial Governor Zhang chuckled and said,"
"I don't need Your Majesty to believe me. I just need to let Your Majesty know that Yizhou is still on the side of the imperial court and doesn't listen to the King of Shu's commands.”
The provincial governor, Lord Zhang, only said half of his words. There was still the other half he did not say.
The half sentence that was left unsaid was:
"Moreover, this will also make the Little Saint satisfied.”
Hearing the Provincial Governor's words, the Yizhou Biejia nodded in realization.
"I see, I see! Lord Zhang is truly wise!"
The two of them were talking and laughing, but they did not know that this scene had been heard clearly by Hundred Birds Nightfall, who was hidden on the beam.
Hundred Birds Night turned into a gust of cold wind and left, rushing to Snow Moon City to report to Li Ke!
………………
The next day.
The morning sun was very bright.
As soon as the Snow Moon City's disciples opened the gates, they saw a long line of people waiting to enter the city.
As far as the eye could see, it was densely packed with human heads.
These people were all people from the martial arts world.
The disciple guarding the city had never seen such a scene before. He immediately reported the matter to the three city lords.
The Great City Lord went out to search for medicine, and the Second City Lord didn't like to care about the miscellaneous matters of Snow Moon City.
All kinds of personnel management, Snow Moon City's administrative affairs all fell on the shoulders of the third city lord, Sikong Chang Feng.
Hearing the report of the disciple guarding the city, the three city lords raised their eyebrows slightly.
The corners of his mouth curled up slightly as he said,
"It seems that what happened in the Sky Ascension Pavilion yesterday has already spread throughout the martial world. Many people have come because of its fame!”
"This is a good opportunity to make a fortune!”
Sikong Changfeng's eyes curved upwards. He waved his hand and said,"
"Pass down my order. Open the city gates and welcome guests! The prices of food, drinks, and food in the city will be increased by 30%!”
He didn't expect that this time, it would be a blessing in disguise.
With so many people from the pugilistic world coming to Snow Moon City, he was probably going to make a fortune!
Sikong Chang Feng's order was quickly passed down, and the streets of Snow Moon City were filled with many people.
Even the remote corner where Ye Ruoyi was at had more than ten heads than usual.
Li Ke woke up from the collapsed mansion and saw that there were obviously more pedestrians than usual.
In a moment, he understood the reason.
It must have been Wang Xianzhi's ruckus yesterday that had caused Snow Moon City to become popular again.
Li Ke tidied up his appearance, and the maid helped him put on a golden cloak.
Just as he was dressed, a gust of cold wind blew into the room.
Li Ke knew that Hundred Birds of Night had come to report.
After sending the maid away, Li Ke was the only one left in the room.
He said,"
"Come out."
After receiving the order, Parrot Song walked out of the darkness.
She bowed and reported,"
"Reporting to Your Highness, the culprit who slandered you has been investigated. It's a group of local officials led by the Yizhou Provincial Governor!”
"The officials of Yizhou are colluding with each other. They hide from the court and cheat the people. It caused the farmers to live in poverty, and the merchants were even more suffocated by the heavy taxes!”
"These officials deserve to die! Your Highness, please give the order to kill him!"
Li Ke narrowed his eyes.
Although he had long guessed that these things were related to the officials of Yizhou.
However, he did not expect that the entire Yizhou's bureaucracy had a copy.
Thinking about it carefully, the reason why these people acted like this was because Li Ke had taken over the position of Governor of Yizhou and taken away the power in their hands.
In addition, when he went to his post, he waited for six hours and the Emperor did not show any signs.
In order to express their feelings to the Emperor, these Yizhou officials could only slander him.
Li Ke sneered.
Since that's the case, don't blame me for massacring Yizhou.
Li Ke took off the "Ten Thousand Miles of Rivers and Mountains" jade pendant on his waist and threw it to Ying Ge. He shouted,
"Pass down this king's order. The eight thousand iron pagodas stationed outside Snow Moon City are to wait outside the city!”
8,000 Iron Stupas and 8,000 Heavy Armor Soldiers!
In the fourth year after Li Ke transmigrated to the Tang Empire, he had signed in 8,000 iron pagodas.
In order to avoid being discovered by Li Shiming, the 8,000 Iron Pagodas were sent to the city.
He had specially ordered the army to be stationed near Snow Moon City, where they would farm, train, and wait for orders.
Now, six years had passed.
The 8,000 Iron Pagodas finally came in handy.
………………
Outside Snow Moon City, in a training ground.
The eight thousand iron pagodas were training in heavy armor as usual.
On the martial arts stage, Tie Futu's general looked down at the 8,000-strong Pagoda Army and could not help but feel melancholic.
He said to the adjutant beside him,
"His Highness asked us to wait here for the transfer order. This wait has been six years! When will His Highness 'transfer order arrive?”
As he was speaking, a black shadow suddenly appeared.
General Tie Futu's eyes turned cold. He drew his saber and slashed.
Clang! The long sword and the large saber collided, creating dazzling sparks.
Parrot Song, who had come to deliver the message, took out the jade pendant in his hand and ordered sternly,
"Iron Futu Army, listen up!"
Seeing the jade pendant in the parrot singer's hand, the general's eyes widened!
This is His Highness 'Commander's Seal!
He knelt on one knee and bowed.
The adjutant beside him and the eight thousand iron pagodas also knelt down.
Ying Ge held the jade pendant and shouted,"
"Your Highness is alive! 8,000 iron pagodas are waiting outside Snow Moon City!”
General Tie Futu's eyes widened. He said excitedly,
"Finally! Finally!"
He turned to look at the Eight Thousand Iron Pagoda and shouted,"
"All troops, move out, target Snow Moon City!”
………………
Outside Snow Moon City, two disciples guarding the city were talking to each other:
"Our Snow Moon City has so many guests, if Peerless City gets the news, they'll definitely be furious!”
"Hahaha, how can Peerless City compare to our Snow Moon City?”
The two of them were chatting happily when they suddenly felt the ground beneath their feet shake.
The two gatekeeping disciples were puzzled.
"Could it be an earthquake?"
"Look, what's that?"
The traveler outside the city gate suddenly exclaimed.
People looked at the plains in the distance.
One by one, heavily armored cavalrymen were charging aggressively towards Snowmoon City.
The cavalrymen wore heavy armor and held large shields as tall as a person.
They looked like pagodas made of refined iron.
The sunlight shone on the silver armor, reflecting a cold and murderous light!
The warhorses under these cavalrymen were also covered in thick and heavy armor.
The armor drooped down, and at the end of the skirt, there were iron beads hanging!
These iron beads could ensure that the skirt armor fit the horse's body.
It could even easily crush the heads of infantry soldiers when it ran!
Eight thousand Iron Pagoda riders rode on the plains, their hooves flying, stirring up the yellow sand.
Even from hundreds of meters away, they could already feel the majestic killing intent of the Iron Futu army!
The two gatekeeping disciples were extremely shocked.
Their legs were trembling in fear as they kept saying,
"The army is attacking! The army is attacking!"
As the Iron Pagoda got closer and closer, the ground of Snow Moon City shook even more violently.
Originally, it was only a slight tremor.
But now, it shook so much that even the gravel on the city gate slowly rolled down.
The arrival of 8,000 Iron Pagodas was a huge commotion.
There was no need for anyone to report, the third city lord, Sikong Changfeng, had already appeared at the city gate.
Li Han Yi, who was wearing a strange mask, appeared with him.
Immediately after, Luo Xia Fairy and Lei Yunhe.
Xiao Se, Sikong Qianluo, Lei Wujie, Luo Mingxuan, and the other juniors also appeared at the city gate.
As Ye Ruoyi's body was weak, she arrived at the city gate with the help of a servant girl.
In the forest not far away, Fei Xuan and Li Fansong of Qingcheng Mountain were also standing at the entrance of the forest.
The threat brought by these eight thousand Iron Pagodas was truly too great. It actually attracted all the experts in Snow Moon City to appear.
Not only that, but the people inside and outside the city also gathered in front of the city gate curiously.
They all wanted to know where these iron pagodas came from.
The Iron Futu Army stopped less than a hundred meters away from Snow Moon City.
The general raised his hand and clenched his fist.
The 8,000 iron pagodas were all waiting in formation.
Sikong Changfeng narrowed his eyes and asked,"
"Where are you from, and why have you come to my Snow Moon City?”
The leader of Iron Futu said coldly,"
"Bring His Highness back to the residence!"
…………
Snow Moon City, where Li Ke had fallen.
He looked at the pedestrians on the street who were constantly rushing to the city gate.
Li Ke said to Li Chungang and Jian Jiuhuang beside him,"
"Let's go back to the Grand Governor's Office!"
