Liu Bin's kneeling represented that Li Chen had already suppressed the Northern Army Camp.

Behind Li Chen, Su Zhen Ting looked at Li Chen's back and softly said to his son: "Your Highness, you now have the air of a prince."

Su Ping's lips trembled, but she couldn't utter a word.

Ask yourself honestly, if you put him in the position of a prince, he wouldn't be as good as Li Chen.

Li Chen's gaze swept across the entire field, and he coldly said: "Don't you hurry and open the fence"

Before Liu Bin could speak, a man beside him suddenly shouted, "Your Highness, the soldiers from our Beidai Camp are training. They cannot leave the fence during training, so please forgive us, Your Highness."

Li Chen's eyes flashed coldly when he heard this.

"Come here!"

The Jinyiwei immediately stepped forward, bowing and saying, "Your servant is here!"

"Tear down this fence for me!"

Li Chen's eyes fixed on Liu Bincheng and the person beside him who had spoken. He said coldly, "Anyone who dares to obstruct will be dealt with according to the law of bumping into this palace, beheaded without mercy!"

More than ten Jinyiwei immediately rushed forward and began dismantling the fence.

The soldiers of the Feather Forest Guard from Bei Da Ying blushed and looked at their general, waiting for his orders.

And beside Liu Bin, the commanding officer who had spoken shouted loudly: "Your Highness, why did you order the Jinyiwei to dismantle our Feilin Guard's barrier"

Liu Bin's face was turning green.

Although the situation had slightly eased because I'd initially backed down, this person's words ruined the atmosphere again.

The barricade was torn apart, and Li Chen rode his horse straight to the front of the commanding officer, saying: "As the regent, I hold the same authority as the emperor himself. This land belongs to the Li family, and you are all soldiers of the Li family."

"Where the rivers flow and the sun and moon shine, there is no place that this palace cannot enter."

After finishing his words, Li Chen calmly said: “Su Pingbei!”

Behind Su Zhenting, Su Pingbei was shaken all over and immediately knelt down beside Li Chen, saying: "I am here, my lord."

Turning his gaze away from the ferocious-faced commanding officer, Li Chen said coldly, "Take this fool and have him executed. Hang his body at the camp gate for the soldiers of the Imperial Guard to see what happens to those who defy me."

As soon as this order was issued, Su Pingbei trembled upon hearing it. He instinctively wanted to look at his father for advice, after all, killing their officer in the Beidaiying of the Imperial Guard was definitely not a wise thing to do.

But as he turned his head, he saw Li Jin's icy gaze.

The action froze instantly. Su Pingbei gritted his teeth and said, "This subordinate obeys!"

After saying his piece, Su Pingbei got up, drew his sword, and with a single stroke, cut the throat of the startled-looking deputy commander.

It all happened so suddenly. The acting commander clutched his blood-spattered throat, collapsing to the ground with shock in his eyes. He never expected Li Chen to be so ruthless and domineering.

And just as he said it, Liu Bin's words "don't" came out of his mouth.

"What do you think, Vice Commander Liu Do you think I shouldn't kill you" Li Chen asked coldly.

Faced with Li Chen's imposing gaze, like a raging thunderstorm, Liu Bin could only feel his chest constricted, unable to breathe. He knew that if his answer displeased Li Chen at this moment, he would become the second corpse hanging on the camp gate.

This man charged at the prince, he...he deserves to be killed!

Liu Bincheng finished speaking with difficulty, and only then did Li Chen withdraw his gaze with satisfaction.

Before Liu Bin could completely relax, Li Jin calmly asked: "Liu Fuzhi, the imperial court just lost four million taels of silver. Do you know where it went"

Liu Bincheng's eyes narrowed, and his blood almost solidified. He clenched his fists, knowing that this matter could no longer be compromised. With gritted teeth, he replied: "This subordinate does not know."

"Good."

Li Chen calmly nodded, but the next second, Li Chen snatched the military knife from Su Pingbei's hand beside him and held it against Liu Bincheng's neck. He said indifferently, "I ask you again, do you know, or don't you know"judgment. But if you do not tell the truth, do not blame this palace for being ruthless.” Li Chen pressed forward step by step.Wang Tenghuan suddenly stepped in front of Li Chen, his eyes wide and hai...
