"Enough."

Su Jinpa interrupted the two's squabbling, her face cold but a soft sigh escaped her lips inwardly.

One was the deputy commander of the Jinyiwei, a position so powerful that even high-ranking officials trembled in his presence.

He is a close associate of the East Palace and a favorite of the court. Even high-ranking officials have to be polite and friendly towards him, at the very least avoiding any offense.

But these two were vying for credit in front of them, each trying to outdo the other.

All of this is because of the wedding dress on my body.

...is also for power.

She felt she was starting to understand why so many people were obsessed with power.

"How many soldiers are in the heavy infantry battalion this time" Su Jinping asked.

He Kun immediately replied, "A total of six hundred people, all arrived."

Su Jinpa frowned slightly and said, "Heavy infantry are weapons for defense and counterattack. If all of them are sent here, how can the safety of the Crown Prince be guaranteed"

He Kun smiled and said, "Your Highness anticipated that the Crown Princess would have this question, so he specially instructed me to tell the Crown Princess not to worry about the Prince; the Prince has his own arrangements."

Su Jinpa wasn't a person who hesitated, and now that the situation was tense, she couldn't afford to be indecisive. Since Li Chen had said there was a plan, Su Jinpa believed that Li Chen must have a foolproof strategy.

The heavy infantry were slow to move, with two hundred in the front and one hundred and fifty behind. The remaining two hundred and fifty men were stationed on either side, forming a protective cordon around the bridal procession as it moved forward. The nimble Jinyiwei, familiar with the terrain, were responsible for guarding the perimeter.

“Try not to disturb the commoners along the way, but if you encounter any suspicious individuals, apprehend them immediately. For now, we disregard other war-torn regions. The most important thing is not to delay the auspicious hour.”

Besides, Deputy Commander Chen, the rebel army is currently causing chaos everywhere, aiming to disrupt the capital's situation and exhaust its defenses. However, if I enter the Temple of Heaven, Your Highness, myself, and the Empress will all be inside. The rebels will inevitably launch a full-scale attack. Remember to monitor the situation in real time. Once you detect a large gathering of rebels, report it immediately without delay.

Su Jin's commands were concise, clear, and well-structured, making them immediately understandable without much thought.

He Kun and Chen Tong were taken aback at first, then they reacted. The prince consort before them was a daughter of a military family, so she must be very familiar with troop formations and strategies. Feeling reassured, the two dared not hesitate for a moment and immediately replied, "Yes, Your Highness."

At the gates of the Divine Martial Army barracks at this moment.

The entire capital city was engulfed in warfare and conflict, with the largest concentration of people gathered outside the Divine Martial Gate.

Li Yin rode a white horse and arrived at the city gate. Behind him, there were two thousand people packed in the entire city gate square.

Looking up, Li Yinhǔ could see Sū Píngběi standing on the city gate in full military garb.

"Su Pingbei, do you know who I am" Li Yinhu said calmly.

Su Ping coldly smiled and said, "Of course I know. Of course I do. A stray dog."

"The previous King Zhao went against the traditions, harming his own siblings, and was stripped of his title. He was banished from the ancestral temple records and even had the Li surname, belonging to the imperial family, revoked. Isn't that just like a stray dog who has lost its home"

Su Ping's words caused an uproar of laughter on the top of Shenwu Gate.

Gripping the reins tightly, Li Yinhǔ's expression was incredibly grim.

"Shut up!"

Li Yinhu let out a roar and rebuked, "The crown prince is incompetent. I warned him not to make the same mistake again, but he colluded with the Ministry of Rites and harmed me. This is something that anyone with eyes can see."

"Oh"

Su Pingbei tilted her head and sneered, "The crown prince harming you Not to mention anything else, the thousands of corpses in Jingshan haven't even turned cold yet.
