The leading officer looked embarrassed, turned back to Su Yuanzhe, and whispered, "Sir, that door is made of iron and is very strong. We don't have the right tools, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to break it open."

Su Yuanzhe frowned, feeling extremely angry. He glared at the tower fiercely and said, "Then find a way for me. We must take down the tower today no matter what."

The officers looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

When Su Yue heard that Su Yuanzhe was unable to spit out ivory, the smile on her face disappeared instantly, replaced by a cold look.

Madam Yang was so angry that her face turned red. "You keep saying that he is your uncle, but you keep saying such shameful things. This is really too much!"

"Liu Daxi, teach him a lesson, don't kill him!" Su Yue said coldly. It would be too easy for him to kill such a man.

Liu Daxi responded and picked up the crossbow and aimed at Su Yuanzhe. Although it was difficult to hit him because of the darkness, the girl said that as long as he taught him a lesson, it was still possible.

The girl is a person who is hard on the outside but soft on the inside. After all, he is her second uncle, so she can't bear to kill him.

Liu Daxi loosened the crossbow in his hand, and an arrow instantly flew towards Su Yuanzhe. The arrow brushed Su Yuanzhe's cheek, leaving a shallow blood mark on his face.

Su Yuanzhe was so frightened that his face turned pale, his legs went weak and he almost fell off the carriage.

The driver was quick to support Su Yuanzhe, "Sir, be careful! Oh, sir, your face is bleeding!"

Su Yuanzhe touched the painful spot on his face and felt something wet on his fingertips. He immediately looked at his fingers and saw that they were indeed a glaring red.

A complex emotion of fear and anger flashed across Su Yuanzhe's eyes. Fortunately, the eldest wife had invited a miracle doctor to treat Su Linze's injury, so this injury should not be serious.

But the more he thought about it, the angrier he got. His hands trembled with anger, and he glared at the tower. His voice became sharp with anger: "Su Yue! You are a rebellious woman who corrupts morals! How dare you let someone attack me! Do you know that if my face is damaged, I will not be able to serve as an official? You are deliberately ruining my future!"

Inside the tower, Su Yue's voice pierced through the night calmly and resolutely: "Second Uncle, if you really valued your position, you wouldn't have brought people here to use threats and lies to treat your niece. What happened today is nothing but your own fault."

Su Yuanzhe wiped the blood off his face with a handkerchief and said with a look of deep sorrow: "How did I treat you? What's wrong with me letting you go home?

What's more, all I wanted was the official food from the owner of this strange building, but you allowed people to hurt me. This is really treasonous.

What are you all standing there for? Hurry up and break down this door for me. I don’t believe they dare to shoot and kill the imperial officials.”

Although the officers were afraid when they heard this, they did not dare to disobey Su Yuanzhe's orders. They saw a lot of stones near the iron gate, which must have been used by someone to try to break through the iron gate before.

A dozen or so officers looked at each other and understood each other tacitly. They all picked up stones and smashed the iron gate. Anyway, they took action, and as for whether they could break it open or not, that depended on God's will.

Zhong Tie and his apprentices behind the gate of the tower heard the banging sounds on the door and nervously clenched the iron bars in their hands.

Seeing that Su Yue didn't make any movement, Ren Dong thought that Su Yue was frightened, so she reminded her, "Girl, they have already broken down the door, what should we do?"

"Just smash it down. Anyway, this door has been reinforced. I don't believe they can break it down. I'm a little hungry. Go get some mung bean soup for everyone to cool down."

After hearing what Su Yue said, Rendong was stunned at first, then quickly responded, "Yes, girl," and hurried to prepare mung bean soup.

Song Mingtao was a little worried when he heard this and said, "Girl, even if the iron door is reinforced, it probably won't be able to withstand so many people smashing it."

Su Yue shook her head: "It doesn't matter, everyone just watch, it's not us who have to work hard anyway, wait until those officials have exhausted their energy, then kill the chicken to scare the monkeys."

Outside the tower, the officers banged on the door one after another, but the iron door remained motionless. Su Yuanzhe watched from the side, his face becoming increasingly gloomy. He was angry, but he had no idea what to do.

After a while, Honeysuckle came back with mung bean soup. "The mung bean soup is here. Come and have some."

Everyone came forward and took the mung bean soup handed over by Jin Dong. In this tense atmosphere, a bowl of mung bean soup seemed to bring a touch of coolness and tranquility.

Liu Shan took a sip of mung bean soup and said, "This is a good idea, young lady. Let them waste their energy. When they are tired, we can teach them a lesson."

Liu Qiang also nodded in agreement: "That's right, let's see how long they can last."

Song Da even walked to the window and said loudly: "Wow, what a cold mung bean soup, so sweet and refreshing. I feel refreshed after drinking it."

Seeing this, Liu Qiang also walked to the window and shouted loudly: "Hey, it's so hot today and I still need a bowl of iced mung bean soup to feel refreshed! Big sister, give me another bowl."

The officials outside the tower heard the laughter and joy inside, and they became even more annoyed and frustrated.

They banged on the door until they were exhausted and soaked in the heat, but the door was not damaged at all, while the people in the tower were drinking mung bean soup leisurely.

Su Yuanzhe's face was extremely ugly. He looked at the still sturdy iron gate and listened to the voices in the tower. The anger in his heart burned even more vigorously.

"Haven't you eaten? Work harder." He shouted loudly.

However, the officers were really exhausted. One of them said cautiously, "Sir, we really can't break it down. This door is too strong.

Or we should go back and think of other ways, or send more people to attack, and then we will definitely be able to break down this broken iron door."

"Humph, do I need you to teach me how to do things?"

Su Yuanzhe glared at the official, but he also knew that it was not a solution to continue like this. He swung his sleeves fiercely and said, "Let's go back and think of a solution."

The officers felt relieved and quickly dropped the stones and prepared to ride away on horseback.

Seeing that they were about to leave, Su Yue immediately snatched Liu Danan's crossbow and shot an arrow at the back of Su Yuanzhe as he turned around and prepared to return to the carriage. After the first arrow hit, she shot another arrow at Su Yuanzhe's calf.

Su Yue deliberately didn't shoot at the vital parts, because the wounds were most likely to become inflamed in such hot weather, and Su Yuanzhe would be in trouble then.

When Liu Daxi saw Su Yue taking action, he put down his soup bowl and took the crossbow to shoot at the officers one by one.

There was chaos outside the tower. The officials dodged the flying arrows in panic. They had never expected that the lowly people on the tower would actually attack the imperial officials and officials.

After Su Yuanzhe was shot, he groaned in pain and almost fell to the ground. The driver hurriedly supported him and shouted in horror: "Sir, you are injured!"

Su Yuanzhe gritted his teeth, looking back at the tower with a distorted face in pain, "Su Yue, how dare you be so bold! I will never let you go."
