Si Yuan held Mu Wanwan's restless little hand and slowly opened his eyes.

"Wife, wake up." Si Yuan's low voice was a little tired and full of doting.

Mu Wanwan's heart moved. Damn, just listening to this sound can make people pregnant.

She pinched Si Yuan's face and said, "Speak properly and don't seduce me."

"Ah?" Si Yuan looked confused. He didn't do anything. Si Yuan blinked innocently, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

"Get up quickly, we have to hurry."

Mu Wanwan said as she pulled Si Yuan up and went into the bathroom to brush her teeth.

"Mom, we're going out." After saying hello, Mu Wanwan pulled Si Yuan out of the space.

"Hey, wait, you two, finish your breakfast before you go out." Lin looked at the disappearing figures of Mu Wanwan and Si Yuan and shook her head helplessly, "This kid..."

After the two of them left the space and walked out of the tent, they found that everyone had already gotten up.

The sunlight shines through the treetops onto the ground, and the air is filled with the fresh scent of the morning.

"Ying Er, pack up all the tents. We'll set off after that." Si Yuan ordered.

Mu Wanwan walked to Madam Gu's tent, lifted the curtain and went in, carefully checking the old lady's physical condition. After confirming that she had no other discomfort, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Shadow Two directed the shadow guards to clean up the camp, and the others also began to pack their packages.

A group of people marched towards Tianque City in a mighty manner.

Mu Wanwan didn't want to sit in the carriage, so she rode with Si Yuan at the front of the team, feeling the cool breeze blowing across her cheeks.

The scenery along the way was picturesque. Mu Wanwan was in a good mood and walked side by side with Si Yuan.

A group of people quickly arrived at the foot of Tianque City. A group of people gathered at the city gate and were discussing something.

Mu Wanwan jumped off the horse lightly, and Si Yuan followed suit.

They walked towards the crowd and found that it was a group of people surrounding a notice that said that each person had to pay one tael of silver to enter the city.

"One tael of silver is so expensive. Are we going to be left alive?" There were dissatisfied complaints from the crowd.

"The entrance fee changes every day. They're really leaving us no chance of survival," another burly man said. "I heard that the fee was raised today because of the Tianque City Lord's son's birthday."

Mu Wanwan frowned and looked at Si Yuan: "Is this city lord crazy? Is there no one to stop such blatant corruption?"

Si Yuan's eyes flashed with murderous intent. "Tianque City is adjacent to the Northern Territory. In recent years, my grandfather and Fengling Kingdom have signed a peace and trade treaty. Trade between the two countries must pass through this city. If the Lord of Tianque City charges an entry fee, it may cause dissatisfaction among the people of both countries."

Mu Wanwan understood that trade between the two countries was a good thing, but if the city lord took this opportunity to make money, it would probably cause resentment among the people of both countries and might even affect the peace between the two countries.

"Who is this city lord? How dare he be so bold?"

A cold smile flashed across Si Yuan's face, "The city lord is called Wang Shoucai, and as for the person behind him..." Si Yuan pointed in the direction of the capital.

"Is this dog emperor crazy? How did he sit on the throne? His brain must be filled with shit!" Mu Wanwan didn't care whether he was Si Yuan's father or not, and cursed in a low voice.

Mu Wanwan hadn't been this angry even when his own family was being hunted. He had used the people of both countries to make money and caused war. His reign as emperor had finally come to an end!

Si Yuan looked at the angry Mu Wanwan and couldn't help feeling a little warm in his heart. Her Wanwan had the world in her heart.

"Please, sir, let me in. My mother is waiting for me in the city with her last breath." A man dressed as a scholar knelt on the ground and begged, his eyes full of sorrow.

"One or two taels of silver. If you don't have money, let your mother come out." The guard cursed.

"You... my mother is sick in bed, why do you come out like that?" The scholar was so anxious that his face turned red and tears welled up in his eyes.

He turned around and prepared to rush into the city, but was grabbed by the guards and thrown to the ground.

The guard picked up his machete and attacked the scholar: "Come here, this man has entered the city without permission. He is suspected to be a spy. Arrest him."

Si Yuan rushed forward, grabbed the guard's arm, stretched out his long legs, and kicked the guard out.

The guard crashed into the city wall, let out a scream, and stopped moving.

The people around screamed and dodged, and then there was a cheer from the crowd.

"These guards have been exploiting the people all day long. They deserve this."

"It's a great relief." The people talked about it.

"You are so brave to kill someone." When the other guards saw their colleagues being killed, they stepped forward with knives raised and surrounded Si Yuan.

Si Yuan's eyes were icy, and he exuded an unyielding aura. "Article 23 of the Ruilan Dynasty Law states that anyone who abuses their power and exploits the people will be killed on the spot."

Mu Wanwan took out his long sword and rushed forward with Ying Er and others, cutting off the guard's long sword with one sword.

Seeing this, the guards picked up their swords and rushed towards Mu Wanwan and others.

Mu Wanwan dodged the oncoming long sword with a light movement.

He swung the long sword in his hand, and cold light flashed. The guards fell down with screams.

Such a big thing happened at the city gate, and the guards informed the city lord early.

"Who dares to cause trouble under my nose?" Wang Shoucai shouted angrily and hurried over with a group of elite soldiers.

When Wang Shoucai saw the guards fallen at the city gate, his face turned pale. He had never thought that someone would dare to challenge his authority in broad daylight.

Si Yuan turned around and glanced at Wang Shoucai with disdain, a sneer on his face: "City Lord Wang, you have such great authority!"

When Wang Shoucai heard this, his eyes swept across Si Yuan's face and he was stunned.

Wang Shoucai was shocked to find the deposed crown prince here. He knew this matter shouldn't be made public. He would first take him to the city lord's residence and control him before reporting to the person.

Wang Shoucai forced himself to remain calm and bowed to Si Yuan, "This must be a misunderstanding. Your Highness, please follow me to the City Lord's Mansion to discuss this."

Si Yuan ignored him and said coldly, "Misunderstanding?"

He gave Ying Er a look, and Ying Er immediately understood, holding the long sword tightly in his hand and heading towards Wang Shoucai's chest.

Before Wang Shoucai could react, he fell to the ground, his clothes stained with blood.

Si Yuan stepped forward and stepped on Wang Shoucai's shoulder, with the tip of the sword pointing directly at his throat. "From today on, Tianque City will be taken over by me. Anyone who resists will be killed without mercy." After saying that, he stabbed Wang Shoucai in the throat again.

Wang Shoucai was still dreaming of handing over the deposed crown prince to the emperor and receiving his reward. But then he died.

The incident at the city gate caused the crowd to fall silent, and the officers and soldiers were at a loss as to what to do.

"I will obey the prince's order." Gu Zhiyuan was the first to kneel down and salute.

"Your Highness? Is Your Highness coming to rescue us?"

"It's the Lord God of War, it's His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" Someone in the crowd recognized Si Yuan and shouted excitedly.
