The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

Jixiang reminded Tian Muyu that there were seven or eight poison masters around Tian Qiquan. Hou Liang said that he was not very clear about the identities of these people who were lurking around the new emperor. But he only knew that there was a man named Wansheng who had a good relationship with the new emperor and was a person who often appeared around the new emperor.

So when they were about to approach the capital, he asked Xiong Er and Pang Ting to remind the soldiers to be careful of strangers approaching, and no matter whether they were women, children, the elderly or the weak, they were not allowed to get close to the army.

So when Tian Muyu arrived outside the south gate of the capital, he was already followed by thousands of people.

These people were scattered in front, behind, left and right of the team, following closely, giving people a very bad feeling.

"Your Highness, there might be people with ulterior motives among these people." Xiong Er looked at the people of different appearances vigilantly, trying to find a few suspicious people among them.

"Have you brought all the medicines that the princess prepared?" Tian Muyu was also looking at the crowd.

"Although I have brought it, I am afraid that innocent people will be hurt in this situation. If the court officials use this to embarrass you and the princess..."

"Humph, since we have decided to take this step, why should we be afraid of these things? Keep an eye on those people. If there is any unusual movement, we must quickly control the situation."

"Yes," Xiong Er understood, and then whispered something to Li Da beside him.

Li Da was worried about Xiong Er and the others, so after settling the affairs of Xiaowazi Village, he led his men to chase them all the way. It was not until they reached the outside of the city that they saw Tian Muyu and his army.

Li Da quickly went down to remind everyone.

When Tian Qiquan heard that Prince Ning had already arrived outside the city, he strode out and said, "He has finally lost his patience and wants to fight me. I have been planning for many years, so how could I be afraid of him?"

The leader of the imperial guards followed him and said, "I have already deployed no less than a hundred people outside the South City Gate according to the emperor's instructions. Once Prince Ning's men arrive, they probably won't even have a chance to enter the city gate."

Tian Qiquan thought for a moment and said, "A hundred people are not enough, add another hundred."

"Yes!" The leader of the imperial guards agreed, and then ordered his men to make arrangements.

Because the city gate had not been opened, Tian Muyu and others were unable to enter the city, so they gathered together to discuss ways to enter the city.

Suddenly, Li shouted, "Open the gate, open the gate!"

Everyone couldn't help but look towards the city gate, but they saw that the gate was only opened a narrow crack, and some ordinary people came out from it, some pushing carts, some carrying packages, they were just ordinary people who went in and out of the city gate as usual.

On the city wall, a soldier shouted, "The emperor has ordered that Prince Ning is plotting a rebellion and intends to attack the imperial city, so all the gates of the capital will be strictly controlled from today onwards, and no one is allowed to enter or leave unless it is absolutely necessary!"

When the people who were leaving the city heard this, they all ran towards this side, as if they were afraid that once the city gates were closed, they would never be able to get out again.

Some even shouted, "Finally I'm out. If I can't leave the city today, my family will definitely worry about me. Go home quickly, go home quickly. I've been out for three days, and my family must be waiting anxiously."

Someone followed up and said, "I just came to the city to find a good doctor for my mother, but I almost couldn't leave the city. My mother is almost dying. I can't be locked up in the city!"

"Thanks to the emperor's mercy, we can leave the city."

Everyone rushed towards the army.

Tian Muyu ordered Xiong Er, "Don't let them get close to the soldiers!"

"Yes!" Xiong Er immediately walked towards those people with the hilt of the sword in his hand.

When those people saw that the road was occupied by the army, they rushed forward in a crowd. They were about to collide with the stationed Xiong family army, but Xiong Er stepped in front of them in time.

"There is still a path over there. Please go that way."

"What do you mean? Didn't you build this road for you? Why don't you let us go?" An old man in the crowd was obviously a little indignant. He looked at Xiong Er angrily and was about to pounce on him, as if to say, "I'm old and I'm not afraid of you."

Xiong Er kept his eyes on the old man. When he saw that the old man had his hands on his chest, he suspected something was wrong and immediately took a few steps back.

But the old man was obviously unwilling to let things go, and he followed closely, trying to catch Xiong Er.

The people behind were obviously influenced by the old man. They were no longer in a hurry to travel and gathered together.

"So what if you soldiers have knives? You can't bully the common people!"

"That's right. Even though we are unarmed, we can't be bullied by you at will!"

As he spoke, someone was about to pull the soldier next to Xiong Er. Xiong Er obviously felt that something was wrong, and of course he couldn't let them touch his own soldiers, so he drew out his sword.

"Whoever takes a step forward will be killed without mercy! Li Da!"

Li Da ran over quickly.

"Keep an eye on them. If anyone dares to attack us, we'll strike first!"

The few civilians who were near the front had their hands obviously on their chests, and they were all stunned when they heard what Xiong Er said.

Although Xiong Er temporarily shocked these people, the surrounding area was in chaos.

The onlookers suddenly rushed towards the team, and someone threw a powdery substance at the soldiers from a distance.

"kill!"

Tian Muyu was just waiting for someone to take action so that he could draw his sword.

Seeing someone in the crowd taking action, he quickly shouted out.

In an instant, the soldiers who had been waiting quietly rushed towards the onlookers like arrows. Before anyone could take anything out of their chests, they were all controlled one by one.

Even though there were tens of thousands of civilians watching, there were more than 20,000 soldiers, so it was easy to control them all.

After searching everyone one by one, they found more than 200 identical medicine bottles.

Tian Muyu held a bottle and looked at the old man who was making trouble. "My Sixth Uncle sent you here, right? You dressed up as ordinary people and want to poison us?"

The old man didn't expect that they were all controlled in just a blink of an eye, and he couldn't help but feel very annoyed.

He tilted his head to the side, not wanting to look at Tian Muyu.

"Uncle Jiang." Tian Muyu called out to the old man.

The old man was stunned and looked at Tian Muyu in surprise.

"I have lived in the Sixth Uncle's mansion before, so how come I don't recognize the elders in your mansion? Although you have changed your appearance, I can still recognize you from your voice, your habitual movements, and the way you walk."

Tian Muyu walked forward and touched the old man's head, then suddenly tore off a mask.

The person behind the mask is an old man in his fifties.

Tian Muyu smiled and said, "Uncle Jiang, long time no see. You didn't get burned to death in that fire?"

The man called Uncle Jiang looked obviously unhappy, and he lowered his head and stopped talking.

"General Xiong, release all the civilians who don't have poison on them, and bring the rest over here."

"Yes!" Xiong Er did as he was told immediately.

Soon, those who were just there to watch the fun were released, and those who were found to have poison on them were brought to Tian Muyu.

There were more than 200 people kneeling densely on the ground.

"Check them all carefully again to see if there has been any change of appearance." Tian Muyu said again.

Pang Ting, Xiong Er and others immediately went to check one by one.

Except for eight people who were in disguise, the rest were real people.

Some people kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive us. We are just hired by them. They said they would pay us five taels of silver for each time we sprinkle the powder!"

Someone echoed, "Yes, yes, I followed you here just for the five taels of silver."

Tian Muyu said coldly, "Do you know how many people this bottle of poison can kill? If it is all poured on the soldiers, this small bottle can kill one or two hundred soldiers! Do you still think you are innocent?"

Those people were scared to death, and they kowtowed and made trouble, "Your Highness, please look into this, we really didn't know it was poison."

The man Tian Muyu called Uncle Jiang sneered, "I didn't expect that King Ning has become a lot smarter in less than a year."
