Through towering mountains and across massive rivers.

In the early evening, when Pei Xuanjing was ten days at most and five days at least from Tiandu, a person, coming from Tiandu, entered the inn where they were staying. This person had come specifically for Pei Xuanjing.

“Your arrival is quite unexpected,” Pei Xuanjing said to the visitor.

Yu Zhenzi and Pang Hong’s eyes were also filled with surprise and confusion, not disguising the astonishment in their faces.

They didn’t know why this person would come here to find Pei Xuanjing.

Wang Boan’s eyes were as calm as water. He indifferently asked, “Is it really a surprise? I get the sense you’ve been waiting for me to come.”

Pei Xuanjing smiled. He neither agreed nor disagreed. He asked, “What is your intention in leaving the

Ministry of War, font color-casting aside Minister wang•s commission?”

“Ha, you knew I left Tiandu, but you don’t know why I’m here?” Wang Boan caught the ambiguity in Pei Xuanjing’s words and retorted.

This time when he left Tiandu, he was entrusted by Minister Wang Qiong of the Ministry of War to protect someone.

However, when he heard that Pei Xuanjing had left Dragon Tiger Mountain and seemed heading to Tiandu, Wang Boan put that task aside for a moment and came to see Pei Xuanjing.

“Surely the Minister of War doesn’t want to discuss something with me, a wanted criminal of the imperial court? News of this would certainly unsettle the officials of the Imperial Censorate,” Pei Xuanjing casually said.

It should be noted that even today, departments like the Six Gates had already stopped the pursuit of

However, to uphold the dignity and reputation of the Great Ming imperial court, his bounty had not only been retained but also increased significantly.

Therefore, even as high-ranking as Minister Wang Qiong, the officials of the Imperial Censorate would swarm like blood-thirsty hyenas upon news of any connections with Pei Xuanjing.

“My visit here was my own decision, it has nothing to do with Minister Wang,” Wang Boan couldn’t admit. He said to Pei Xuanjing, “I would like to discuss something with you. Would you give me the honor?”

Pei Xuanjing agreed, “I can’t refuse an invitation from you.”

Hence, the two men proceeded to the top floor of the inn.

Seeing Yu Zhenzi purposely or inadvertently blocking the path, many people in the shadows regretted the missed opportunity.

“Please!”

Pei Xuanjing picked up the teapot and poured tea for both of them.

“Please forgive my earlier rudeness,”

Wang Boan regained his usual calm and elegant demeanor, a stark contrast to his previous fiery attitude.

No matter what, the man in front was a known powerful figure. Before figuring out his intention, Wang Boan didn’t want to make him an enemy during this special period.

“It seems many people are interested in your journey,” Pei Xuanjing commented as he put down the teapot.

From Wang Boan’s unusual tone earlier, he conjectured that there must be quite a few people keeping tabs on him, hence the ruse.

“Alas, let’s not mention those people!” Wang Boan was extremely irritated by these people.

However, he was not one to act recklessly and kill these people.

After all, even if these people were killed, more would undoubtedly follow persistently.

In the end, concluding that these people pose no hindrance to him, he let them be, detaching from them only at critical times.

He paid no more attention to these pursuers. Instead, he turned his attention to Pei Xuanjing and said slowly, “Are you really going to Tiandu?”

Xuanjing laughed, saying, “Why shouldn’t I?”

“You should be clear of the current situation in Tiandu. Your arrival will just add fuel to the fire,” Wang Boan stated.

Tiandu is currently a muddy pool, with all kinds of ambitious people plotting something.

The entry of Pei Xuanjing would undoubtedly make the already chaotic Tiandu even more chaotic; no one knows where the situation would end up.

Looking at Pei Xuanjing, who was laughing silently and neither confirming nor denying, Wang Boan couldn’t help but ask, “Can you tell me why you want to go to Tiandu?”

He had some doubts in his heart, but still found it hard to believe. Xuanjing laughed and said, “I wanted to join the grand event of the new emperor’s ascension.”

A chill sank into Wang Boan’s heart as he thought, “So it is.”

His previous guess was correct. Pei Xuanjing was indeed here for the new emperor’s ascension.

However, he is uncertain of what Pei Xuanjing intended, what his plans were, or what he wants to do.

For Pei Xuanjing, he had done some research and knew that he was a man who disliked trouble.

If someone else said they were going to Tiandu for the excitement, Wang Boan might believe it. But he didn’t believe Pei Xuanjing would do so.

Not to mention other things, his current identity and the influence of his subordinates can never be as simple as he said.

While contemplating, he heard Pei Xuanjing say, “I’ve heard the successor to the new emperor hasn’t been decided. The Elder Lord Wang and the Prime Minister are arguing hard, aren’t they?”

“That’s correct!”

Wang Boan did not deny.

It did not surprise him that Xuanjing knew about this.

The issue of who the successor should be was now clear. Both sides had their owns views and neither would compromise.

Xuanjing chuckled, “I believe Elder Lord Wang is rooting for His Highness Prince Xing. Your departure from Tiandu is to protect His Highness Prince Xing, isn’t it?”

The political wind in Tiandu is changing, the undercurrent is surging. Wang Boan left Tiandu instead of staying and protecting Minister Wang during this period. What else could it be besides this?

Wang Boan’s eyes flashed and he sighed, “Even you are concerned about these things. This isn’t something someone who just wants to get in on the excitement should worry about.”

Pei Xuanjing didn’t mind and said something that caused a sudden change in Wang Boan’s expression: “What if I say, I can help Minister Wang?”

‘You want to get involved in the royal succession!” Wang Boan changed color.

The first reaction after hearing these words from Pei Xuanjing was not joy, but unease.

Regardless of who would eventually succeed the throne, whether Prime Minister Yang Tinghe or Minister of War Wang Qiong, it was within the rules of the Great Ming imperial court.

However, if Pei Xuanjing were to intervene, to the many officials of the Great Ming imperial court, it would undoubtedly be breaking the rules.

“That’s correct!” Pei Xuanjing did not deny it at all.

“You should know why the Shenxiao Sect fell. The cause would be clear to anyone.” Wang Boan’s face grew slightly angry, his tone icy..
