Chapter 676: Obeying the Imperial Order to Suppress the Rebellion
In the Hanmo Garden, the singing and dancing dispersed. Zhu Jin, Qiao Yi, Xie Gong, and the other three people around them all focused their attention on Li Banfeng.

Zhu Jin was more straightforward and even wanted to ask Li Banfeng directly.
Since Li Banfeng came to Chaoge, they have been under their surveillance. They have never seen him use any technique, nor have they seen him use spiritual objects or magic weapons. They have never heard that he is a spy. How come he knows so many things?
Zhu Jin looked at Xie Gong.
Xie Gong suspected that Chao Ge had a mole, but the man was deep in thought, expressionless on his face, and silent on his lips.
Luo Lijun and Luo Shaojun were both shocked.
Luo Lijun also wanted to advise Li Banfeng to be careful when speaking.
She didn't even know that her life depended on this.
Qiao Yi was silent for a while and then said with a smile: "Da Shang's wine is mellow and strong. His Highness Li Qi must be drunk. We are gathering here today, but for no reason, why are you talking about the Holy Emperor again for the sake of peace talks?"
Li Banfeng smiled and said: "Whether I say it or not, all your saints will come. Once I enter Chaoge, he will have no way out."
This hits home.
Because he lost two heads, the saint's lineage has been questioned. Li Qi established a new king outside.
He also changed the identity of the saint into Prince Chun who usurped the throne. Once this was confirmed, the saint's way of survival in Dashang was cut off.
Li Banfeng looked at Qiao Yi and said, "Your sage tried every means to prevent Li Qi from coming to Chaoge. The sage was the one who ordered Mr. Bao Ying to do something against me before. Isn't that right?"
Qiao Yi looked surprised: "Your Highness Li Qi, are you talking about Baoying Jun, the Lord of Boundless City?"
Li Qi smiled: "Let's not pretend to be confused. Your sage has long predicted that the Luo sisters might use Boundless City to come to Chaoge. He asked Bao Yingjun to make full preparations for the assassination in advance. It's a pity that Bao Yingjun is not a fool." Zhongyong, he can't kill me,
Since I arrived at Chaoge, your saint's situation has been quite dangerous. What you talked about with me and to what extent you talked about it are not under the control of the saint. If he doesn't take action at this time, he will just sit back and wait for death.
You have grasped this point and laid many ambushes in Sanchong City, waiting for the saint to fall into the trap.
Did I say that correctly? "
As soon as the words fell, all three people present immediately changed their sitting postures and pretended to be talking to each other.
Someone talked about the weather: "These days, Chaoge is a little more humid than before."
"What I said is absolutely true, this year's Chaoge is very different from previous years."
Someone was talking about clothes: "Mr. Liu, your embroidery work on these clothes is really superb."
"Yu Guixiang's craftsmanship in Erzhongcheng. That woman is a bit more outspoken, but I really like her craftsmanship."
Some people really have nothing to talk about and are looking for something to say: "Brother Su, look, the flowers are blooming in full bloom today!"
"Yes, Brother Xu, the flowers are blooming so beautifully."
Everyone pretended not to hear what Li Qi said, because Li Qi got it right and the purpose of their banquet was right.
Today, Qiao Yi and others held a banquet, with the intention of inviting Li Qi to discuss the matter of the new king, but the actual purpose was to force the saint to leave the core area of Chaoge, come to Sanchong City, and fight with them here.
Now that they have reached their goal, should they let Li Qi and the others leave?
Thinking too much!
Li Banfeng knew that Qiao Yi would not let them go.
Seeing that everyone was still pretending to be confused, Li Banfeng simply said more bluntly: "You really want to get rid of the saint. This intention is true.
But regardless of whether you can kill the saint or not, you are guilty of regicide. You must leave yourself a backup plan, and the backup plan is on me.
If you successfully kill the saint, you will charge me with the crime of regicide. How you deal with me in the future depends on the direction of the royal family and the various princes.
They have cleared this matter, and you will let me live, but you will definitely imprison me for the rest of my life. If this matter cannot be cleared, I will be executed in public. In short, you are innocent and have no flaws in it.
If you can't kill the saint, you can get rid of me with your backhand. In this way, your position will change and you will become the heroes who get rid of the saint's serious troubles.
The wine glass in Luo Lijun's hand fell to the ground. She never expected that she was invited to Chaoge as a scapegoat.
Luo Shaojun secretly touched the snail shell behind him. There was a weapon in the snail shell. Luo Shaojun was ready to fight desperately.
A group of three-headed people no longer pretend to chat because they feel they have nothing to hide.
But Qiao Yi still had a lot to hide. He responded to Li Banfeng: "Your Highness Li Qi, what you said is ridiculous. Even if I claim to be a meritorious official, how can the Holy One still believe me?"
Li Banfeng said with a smile: "Whether he trusts you or not does not depend on his intentions, but on the strength of both of you. As long as you don't get caught in the act of regicide, you will have enough energy to deal with the saint. Isn't that right?"
Qiao Yi stood up and said, "After two more glasses of wine, Qiao was a little dizzy. Your Highness sat down for a moment, and Rong was excused for a moment.
"Don't move!" Li Banfeng raised the brim of his hat and looked at Qiao Yi, "Old Qiao, I can stay here for a while.
It's time for the two Luo sisters to return to Boundless City. "
All three heads looked at the Luo sisters. They did not want to let these two scapegoats go. After all, there would be many sins to bear in the future, and one Li Qi might not be able to bear them.
Qiao Yi smiled: "The Luo family and I are old friends. It's rare for us to get together here. If we have to leave half way through the wine, wouldn't it spoil the fun?"
"It's better to ruin your mood than to ruin your life," Li Banfeng looked at Qiao Yi and said, "It's good to have more scapegoats, but it's not a bad thing to leave a way out. One day there will be no way out, and Borderless City can still leave some room for you. A place to stay.”
Qiao Yi sighed: "Your Highness is joking again."
"I'm not kidding," Li Banfeng lowered the brim of his hat, "Let the Luo sisters leave immediately, or I'll send you away first."
Several three-headed men stood up one after another, placing their hands on their weapons.
The surrounding guards also showed their weapons, and everyone seemed to want to fight Li Qi.
But Qiao Yi knew in his heart that they were just pretending, and no one present had the courage to fight Li Qi.
Eleven states, three thousand countries, no one can compete with Puozhou. Li Qi, who is sitting opposite, is a ruthless person from Puozhou, a ruthless person with real strength.
Qiao Yi knew that he was only a few steps away from Li Qi, and he also knew that Li Qi could kill him at any time.
After careful consideration, Qiao Yi waved his hand and asked the guards to escort Luo Lijun and Luo Shaojun away.
Luo Lijun's legs were a little weak and she couldn't stand up for a long time.
Luo Shaojun refused to leave, and she didn't want to leave Li Qi here alone.
Li Banfeng glared at the two of them, his eyes full of coldness.
The faster they go, the better. As long as they can return to Boundless City safely, Li Banfeng will have two less burdens.
The chance of escaping is greater.
The two sisters left with Bai Liangchen and other entourage. Li Banfeng asked Banfeng B and Banfeng C to protect them secretly.
He also told Qiao Yi: "Master Qiao, let's do things honestly and don't make things difficult for these two women."
Qiao Yi nodded slightly, turned around and left the table.
"Lord Qiao, stay here!" Li Banfeng raised his glass and said, "It's rare for you and me to get together. If you have to leave after finishing the wine, wouldn't it spoil the fun?"
Qiao Yi looked cold and sat back in his seat.
Zhu Jin glanced at Qiao Yi, somewhat complaining. He felt that if Qiao Yi left the table early, he would not be threatened by Li Qi.
Xie Gong remained silent. He knew very well that this Li Qi was no ordinary person and there was no way he could let Qiao Yi leave his sight.
As far as the current situation is concerned, Qiao Yi is Li Qi's life-saving bargaining chip. How could Li Qi let go so easily.
Ban Fengchou and Ban Fengmao returned to Li Qi. These two shadows were trapped in the fourth city. They thought that the city was full of private houses and there was nothing interesting to see. But just now, they saw the saint leading the troops into the city. .
The two men hurried back, but suffered the disadvantage of being unfamiliar with the road. By the time they arrived at Hanmo Garden, the saint was about to enter the third level city.
Qiao Yi simply showed his cards: "Your Highness Li Qi, just now you mentioned a retreat, do you know why we should leave a retreat?"
According to the news sent by Ban Fengwu, Li Banfeng had already guessed: "In the teahouse outside the garden,
There is a group of people from Puzhou. It is not clear yet what the position of this group of people is. "
Qiao Yi could no longer hold back. Li Banfeng not only knew that an ambush had been arranged in the city, but also revealed the biggest hidden danger in Qiao Yi's mind.
How many moles are there in Chaoge? How much information does Li Qi know?
All the three heads were a little scared. They couldn't figure out what kind of person the Prince Puo was in front of them, and they couldn't figure out how much foundation this person had laid in Chaoge.
They looked at each other, suspicious of each other, and many people wanted to find excuses to leave the banquet.
Qiao Yi doesn't allow them to leave!
After years of fighting in the court, Qiao Yi's eyes were more vicious than ordinary people's. He now suspected that among everyone present, there was a mole planted by Li Qi'an!
Li Qi asked again: "Master Qiao, was what I just said correct?"
Qiao Yi nodded slightly: "These people are able to gain promotions in Chaoge, and even become princes. They are more or less favored by the saint."
In other words, those people in the teahouse are more likely to favor saints.
Li Banfeng said: "I have a gift for Mr. Qiao, which should be able to stabilize this group of people in the future."
While talking, Li Banfeng took out a document from his sleeve, unfolded it, showed it in front of everyone, and then handed it to Qiao Yi.
This edict reads as follows: The emperor is out on a hunting tour and appoints Qiao Yi as the auxiliary minister to handle government affairs in the DPRK.
Qiao Yi can do it cheaply.
The edict is stamped with a large jade seal. Qiao Yi has checked it repeatedly, and everyone around him has also checked it. The seal is authentic!
Jiu Gulu secretly asked Judge Bi: "I remember we didn't bring the jade seal. Where did this big seal come from?"
The judge pen replied: "Drawing."
The old teapot felt that it was not safe: "Will the painting work? An expert can turn over the edict and look at the back to know whether it is true or false!"
Judge Pen yawned: "The back is also drawn."
Jiu Gourd said in shock: "Do you still have such ability?"
"Huh." Judge Bi turned over and fell asleep.
The projector recorded the entire meeting, and now comes the most critical part. He used a lot of close-ups on the faces of the imperial edict and Qiao Yi.
This edict is fatal, it is equivalent to allowing Qiao Yi to accept the promotion of the new king.
Qiao Yi's expression suddenly changed: "Your Highness has trapped me into injustice."
Li Banfeng shook his head and said: "That's not what you are saying. If things come true, this edict will bring many benefits to Mr. Qiao. If things fail, Mr. Qiao will just pretend that he has never seen this edict."
Never seen it?
Did you tear up the edict afterwards?
Qiao Yi looked back at the people around him.
They all saw it.
Li Qi smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? Aren't they all your people?"
The Hanmo Garden was silent for a long time, and there were sounds of killing outside. The saint led his troops to fight with Qiao Yi's men.
Ban Feng C is back, and he and Ban Feng Yi have sent Luo Lijun and Luo Shaojun back to Wubian City. Ban Feng C is back to resume his duties, and Ban Feng Yi stays in Wu Bian City to meet Li Banfeng.
Qiao Yi looked solemn. There was no conclusion at the teahouse, and it was still impossible to judge the direction of the war.
Li Banfeng smiled and said: "Mr. Qiao, don't think about any way out, why not just take the edict and go to the teahouse to have a look, success or failure depends on this!"
While Qiao Yi was still thinking about it, Li Banfeng suddenly disappeared.
Did he escape?
Qiao Yi was shocked and quickly asked the guards to surround him.
He was afraid that Li Qi would hurt him by looking at things.
The other three heads evaded one after another, fearing to be locked by Li Qi's gaze.
After waiting for a while, everyone was fine.
Li Banfeng did not attack them, but Li Banfeng was reluctant to kill them.
If we really kill them, who will fight with the saint?
Qiao Yi shouted: "Chase, chase quickly!"
Zhu Jin said: "Why are you still pursuing him? The new emperor's edict is here, why not go directly to the teahouse and obey the edict to fight against rebellion!"
Xie Gong felt that Zhu Jin's idea was correct: "Brother Zhu is right, the opportunity cannot be missed, and it will never come back. Take the edict to find Shu Wanjuan. It is justifiable and the matter will be settled!"
Qiao Yi shook his head and said: "Things have to be done, and Li Qi can't let him go. Without him as a witness, it will be difficult to explain clearly some things in the future."
Xie Gong slightly raised his eyebrows. How could he look forward and backward at this critical moment?
Qiao Yi immediately sent an order to hunt down Li Qi along the way.
Zhu Jin said anxiously: "We should not divide our troops now."
This is correct, now we should concentrate our efforts on dealing with the saint.
Qiao Yi said: "Only mobilize the ambush troops from the first and second level cities to pursue Li Qi, while the generals from the third level city will use all their strength to surround and kill the rebels!"
He was the one in charge among the three, and Zhu Jin and Xie Gong were helpless.
Qiao Yi took the imperial edict and wanted to go to the teahouse, but he hesitated.
The saint led his troops and had already reached the vicinity of Hanmo Garden.
Xie Gong was a little anxious: "Brother, you can't hesitate any longer, but you have forgotten that the Holy One also climbed out of Puozhou!"
Qiao Yi weighed it again and again, took the edict and went to the teahouse.
Li Banfeng quickly ran to the second city gate. The city gate was tightly closed and there were heavy soldiers guarding the top of the city. Ban Fengzi reminded: "Mr. A, Ban Feng Yi just said that there is a mechanism in the city wall."
"Then fly over!" Li Banfeng used the skill of riding the wind and driving the clouds to soar into the sky.
The sergeant on the top of the city shook the crossbow cart, and hundreds of crossbow arrows chased Li Banfeng and hit him.
Li Banfeng dodged, and the crossbow arrows followed him in mid-air. Li Banfeng landed and hid behind the boulder. The crossbow arrow hit the boulder and shattered it into pieces.
Li Banfeng used Xiaoyao to dodge, and the crossbow arrow passed through Li Banfeng's chest without hurting Li Banfeng.
But who could have imagined that the crossbow arrows flew back not far away. When they left the crossbow, they were aiming at Li Banfeng. As long as they missed Li Banfeng, they would not stop!
If this kind of weapon is taken to Puluozhou, how many troops can stop this crossbow?
Li Banfeng had no way to dodge, so he simply stopped dodging.
More than a dozen ballistas aimed at Li Banfeng, and arrows flew like rain.
An attic suddenly appeared, covering Li Banfeng.
The arrow hit the attic and was trapped by the barrier of the attic, unable to break free.
Home and travel are in conflict with each other, so Li Banfeng traveled thousands of mountains to move the Jade Cui Tower here.
This was his house. Although he only moved here for a short moment, it was enough to withstand a fatal blow for Li Banfeng.
The Jade Cui Tower disappeared with arrows all over its body. Li Banfeng took to the air again, preparing to fly over the city wall, when a chill suddenly rushed up his spine.
Can't fly.
There are also mechanisms on the city wall to deal with flying creatures.
Li Banfeng didn't know what the mechanism was, but he could tell from the chill that the mechanism had been triggered, and its power was quite astonishing.
What should I do if I can’t fly?
Are you going to rush through the traps in the city wall?
Li Banfeng was only 20 or 30 steps away from the city wall. He activated the technique of breaking the path and opening a path.
A gap opened in the city wall, and high-temperature and high-pressure steam, colorless and invisible, spewed out.
Li Banfeng activated the skill of being generous and brave, and rushed forward against the steam. At the same time, he activated the skill of going his own way, and continued to rise with his cultivation level.
The efforts to break the path and open the road continued to increase, and finally a passage opened in the city wall, and Li Banfeng drilled out along the passage.
The defenders at the top of the city turned their crossbow carts and continued to shoot arrows. Li Banfeng grabbed two feather arrows, first inserted one under his feet, and then inserted another dozens of steps away.
Traveling skills, a hundred steps vertical and horizontal.
The feather arrow flew after Li Banfeng, flying very fast and flying for a long time, but could not catch up with Li Banfeng.
Until the arrow lost its spirituality and fell to the ground, Li Banfeng had already escaped without a trace.
After rushing out of the second door, Li Banfeng thought that the remaining dangers were all at the first door.
He was wrong.
There was something waiting for him in Erzhong City.
The brass horn that lined the aisles for welcome was blown again.
Woohoo!
This sound made Li Banfeng's whole body tremble. This was no illusion. If these copper horns were blown for a while longer, Li Banfeng's bones would really break.
With his wife not around, Li Banfeng couldn't borrow any music to practice his singing skills. He had a few records with him, but it was useless to play them. The volume was instantly drowned out by the copper horn.
The words "House of Heart" and "Thousands of Intentions" cannot be reused in a short period of time. Without a house by your side, you can't close the door or expand the territory.
Li Banfeng counted his skills, but he couldn't think of any way to fight against so many copper horns.
How about using the skill of Yu Xiu?
There are so many copper horns, which one is Yu?
The sound of the copper horns became louder and louder, and Li Banfeng gritted his teeth and endured it.
Suddenly, a whistle came from a distance, and there was a song in the whistle.
"Running on flat land, crossing mountains and rivers, whirring and smoking, adding coal and water, we are on the road, the train is powerful, it can cross bridges, drill holes, and roll through dangerous passes.
We are not afraid of thousands of difficulties and dangers, and we can travel thousands of rivers without any mistakes in wind and rain."
"Train Ballad"!
Li Banfeng was overjoyed, the train master came!
The ballad echoed back and forth with the whistle, and the originally uniform sound of the copper horns was disrupted.
Li Banfeng was relieved and ran all the way, and he heard the voice of the train master in his ears: "Brother,
Walk slower, I will open the door for you!"
He Jiaqing was still guarding near the first gate. There were too many defenders on the top of the city, and he couldn't find a chance to leave the city.
Use the skill of climbing over the wall and crossing the house to climb over the wall directly?
No.
If there are few people on the top of the city, you can try it. There are so many defenders, so many weapons, and there are so many traps on the wall of Chaoge. If you miss the trace when climbing over the wall, you can't get down from the top of the city.
Don't climb over the wall near the city gate, try another place?
No.
The topography of Chaoge changes at any time. Except for the city gate, the mountains, rivers, and buildings may change their positions.
Although He Jiaqing has been to Chaoge and knows how to distinguish directions in Chaoge, if he loses the most important reference point of the city gate, he may get lost if he leaves the city from other places.
Things have come to this point. He Jiaqing doesn't want to take risks, so he waits slowly under the city. No matter how big the incident is, the defenders will always change shifts.
He Jiaqing was waiting patiently, and suddenly heard the voice of the train father-in-law: "What are you waiting for?"
Why is he here again?
He Jiaqing said, "I'm waiting for an opportunity to leave the city."
Eunuch Train appeared beside He Jiaqing: "Now is a good opportunity. I'll lead the people on the top of the city away, and you go and pry open the city gate!"
After the words fell, Eunuch Train took out a palm-sized swallow-shaped kite from his arms and threw it into the air.
The kite flew up and spread its wings in the air. It was originally only the size of a palm, but after flying for a while, it became a behemoth of ten feet long and two feet wide.
One kite turned into two, two turned into twenty, and twenty kites rushed to the top of the city and fought with the defenders.
The train master pulled more than 20 kite strings and said to He Jiaqing: "What are you still standing there for? Open the lock quickly!"
He Jiaqing saw that the opportunity was indeed good. He sneaked to the city gate and opened the city gate lock with the key.
He opened the city gate outside. As soon as he pushed the city gate open, he heard the train master shouting: "Brother, run!"
"Thank you, senior!" He Jiaqing raised his legs and was about to run, but saw the train master running away with Li Banfeng.
The train master called brother just now, was it Li Banfeng?
When did he know the train master?
Before Li Banfeng came to Pro Province, the train master was already trapped in Neizhou?
Could Li Banfeng have been in contact with Pro Province before?
Li Banfeng really came to Chaoge, was it really him who stole the deed from me just now?
He Jiaqing was full of doubts, but now was not the time to think about these things. The kites on the top of the city were gone.
He Jiaqing had to get out quickly.
Li Banfeng rushed out of the city gate, and a group of white horses blocked his way in front of the gate.
The white horses lined the road, and it was indeed not just a ceremonial guard. These white horses were carrying weapons. Although they were not ranked,
their numbers were strong, and they could also make the battle stalemate.
Boom!
Li Banfeng was in no mood to stalemate with them. He stepped out with a foot that broke through the ten thousand rivers, and several white horses fell down,
leaving a road empty.
The old train sighed and said, "Brother, how did you learn this technique? Breaking through the ten thousand rivers and watching the flowers in a horse's way are the specialty of our Taoist sect, and you use it like this?"
He really wanted to demonstrate the key points of breaking through the ten thousand rivers to Li Banfeng again, but unfortunately this shadow was too far away from the real body and did not have the strength.
Li Banfeng pursed his lips: "Brother, when we return to Pro Province, I will polish the technique with you."
"Pro Province—————"
The old train was hesitant to speak.
The two ran all the way to the edge of Chaoge.
There was a mountain in front. After crossing this mountain, Li Banfeng would leave Chaoge.
"Brother, take care."
Li Banfeng said: "Brother, won't you go back with me?"
The figure of the train master gradually faded: "Didn't your shadow tell you? I am just a shadow.
Time was in a hurry, Banfengzi first conveyed the most important memories to Li Banfeng, some memories, Li Banfeng just saw.
"Brother, tell me where you are?"
The train master smiled and said: "No hurry."
He refused to say, he was afraid that Li Banfeng would make a mistake.
He was afraid that this reckless little brother would not leave.
He had a lot of things to say to this little brother, but after waiting for a while, there was only a long whistle.
The chasing white horse was frightened by the whistle and did not dare to approach for the time being.
"Remember to find more second rooms and learn the shadow repair skills well. "The train master raised his eyebrows at Li Banfeng, smiled, and his figure disappeared.
Li Banfeng stood at the foot of the mountain and looked into the distance for a moment, and he also smiled.
The train master is in good condition!
"Brother, wait for me, I will definitely save you!"
Li Banfeng climbed over the mountains and walked into the valley.
The mountains gradually closed, the huge worm closed its mouth and disappeared into the deep sea.
Ten minutes later, He Jiaqing, who was battered and bruised all the way with the white horse, ran to the shore.
Where is the entrance?
Where is Sui'an Town?
This untrustworthy woman left me here!
Li Banfeng walked forward along the slippery road, always feeling that something was wrong.
The environment here is very similar to Wubian City, but there seems to be a little difference.
"You are back——————-Who are you?" Zuo Anna walked from the main street of Sui'an Town to the exit, silently looking at the man in a black suit in front of him.
Li Banfeng looked at Zuo Anna and asked, "What's your name?"
PS: Chaoge is too easy to get lost.
