Climbing mountains and ridges, crossing rivers.
One evening, when Pei Xuanjing was about ten to five days' journey from Tiandu, a man came from Tiandu and walked into the inn where they were, and he came for Pei Xuanjing.
"Mr. Pei's coming here is a surprise." Pei Xuanjing said to the visitor.
The eyes of Yu Zhenzi and Pang Hong were also full of surprise and doubt, and they did not hide the surprise on their faces.
They didn't know why the man in front of them came here to look for Pei Xuanjing.
Wang Boan's eyes were as calm as water, and he said calmly: "Is it really a surprise? I think you have been waiting for me to come."
Pei Xuanjing smiled, without comment, and asked, "I wonder what your purpose is, sir, leaving behind the entrustment of the Minister of War and coming here?"
"Haha, you even know my purpose of leaving Tiandu, don't you know what I want to do here today?" Wang Bo'an caught the flaw in Pei Xuanjing's words and asked.
This time when he left Tiandu, he was entrusted by Wang Qiong, the Minister of War, to protect a person.
However, when he learned that Pei Xuanjing left Longhu Mountain and seemed to be heading towards Tiandu, it reminded Wang Bo'an of some speculations, so he put that matter aside for the time being and came to see Pei Xuanjing.
"It's impossible that the Minister of War has something to discuss with Pei, a prisoner with a bounty on his head, right? If word gets out, the officials at the Yushitai will be unable to sit still!" Pei Xuanjing said leisurely.
You must know that even today, even the six gates and other ministries have stopped chasing Pei Xuanjing.
However, in order to maintain the majesty and reputation of the Ming Dynasty, Pei Xuanjing's reward was not only not removed, but also increased a lot.
Therefore, even if Wang Qiong, who is the Minister of the Ministry of War, has a high and powerful position, if it is rumored that he has contact with Pei Xuanjing, the imperial officials will probably swarm him like hyenas smelling the smell of blood.
"It was my idea to come here this time, and it has nothing to do with Lord Shangshu." Wang Bo'an naturally couldn't admit it. He said to Pei Xuanjing, "I want to talk to you about something. I wonder if the real person can give me a favor?"
Pei Xuanjing said naturally: "Sir, I invited you, how could Pei refuse?"
After that, the two of them walked to the top floor of the inn.
Seeing Yu Zhenzi blocking the passage intentionally or unintentionally, many people in the dark felt regretful.
"please!"
Pei Xuanjing picked up the teapot and filled the two of them with tea.
"I just had a conflict of words, so please don't mind me."
Wang Boan changed his angry look just now and returned to his previous calm and elegant attitude.
No matter what, the person in front of him is already one of the most powerful people in the world. Before he understands the other person's intention, in this special period, Wang Bo'an is not willing to become an enemy with him.
"It seems that sir, there are many people paying attention to you along the way." Pei Xuanjing put down the teapot and said.
From Wang Boan's unusual tone just now, he guessed that there must be many people snooping around the other party, so he did this deliberately.
"Oh, don't mention it!" Wang Bo'an was also annoyed by these people.
But he is not the kind of person who acts wantonly and cannot kill these people.
After all, even if you kill these people, there will still be people following behind you.
In the end, he thought that these people could not cause any hindrance to him, so he let these people follow him, and only took the opportunity to get rid of these people at the critical moment.
He didn't pay too much attention to these people who were following him, and then focused on Pei Xuanjing, and slowly said: "Are you really going to Tiandu?"
Pei Xuanjing smiled and said, "Isn't it possible?"
"You should know what the situation is in Tiandu at this time. After you go there, you will undoubtedly add fuel to the fire." Wang Bo'an said.
The current world is a mess, with all kinds of ambitious people planning something.
Pei Xuanjing's entry will undoubtedly make the already chaotic Tiandu even more chaotic. No one knows where the situation will go.
Looking at Pei Xuanjing who smiled and said nothing, Wang Boan couldn't help but asked: "Can you tell me why you want to go to Tiandu?"
He had some guesses in his mind, but he still dared to believe it.
Pei Xuanjing smiled and said: "Pei wants to join in on such a big event as the new emperor's succession."
Wang Bo'an's heart sank, and he secretly thought that it was indeed the case.
His previous guess was good. Pei Xuanjing was really here for the new king's succession.
I just don’t know what the other person is thinking, what kind of plans he has, and what he wants to do.
He thought he had done some research on Pei Xuanjing and knew that he had always disliked trouble.
If others said that they came here just to join in the fun, Wang Bo'an might believe it, but when Pei Xuanjing said this, Wang Bo'an would never believe it.
Not to mention anything else, just his current identity and the power of his subordinates, it is absolutely impossible to be as simple as he said.
While he was meditating, he only heard Pei Xuanjing say: "I heard that the new king has not yet been decided, and that Mr. Wang and the chief minister have been arguing?"
"good!"
Wang Boan did not deny it.
He was not surprised at all that Pei Xuanjing knew about this matter.
Now that things have reached this point, the situation regarding who will succeed the new king has been completely made clear. Both parties have their own opinions and are unwilling to compromise.
"Hehe." Pei Xuanjing chuckled: "I think Mr. Wang's intention for the new emperor should be His Royal Highness Xing Wang. This time, Mr. Wang went out of Tiandu to protect His Royal Highness Xing Wang!"
The situation in Tiandu is changing, and the undercurrent is surging. Wang Bo'an did not stay in Tiandu to protect Shangshu Wang, but left Tiandu at this time. What else could it be except this matter?
A strange color flashed in Wang Bo'an's eyes, and he sighed: "You even know such things. This is not something that a person who joins in the fun should care about."
Pei Xuanjing didn't care, and said something that made Wang Bo'an's face change slightly: "What if Pei said that he could help Shangshu Wang?"
"You actually want to interfere in the succession to the throne!" Wang Bo'an changed color.
After hearing Pei Xuanjing's words, his first reaction was not happiness, but uneasiness.
Who is the successor to the new emperor? Whether it is the successor of Prime Minister Yang Tinghe or the Minister of War Wang Qiong, this is within the rules of the Ming Dynasty court.
But if Pei Xuanjing intervened, it would undoubtedly break the rules for many officials in the Ming Dynasty.
"Yes!" Pei Xuanjing did not deny it at all.
"I believe you know why the Shenxiao Sect died." Wang Boan was slightly angry and his tone was a little cold.
