#478 - Why can't I go?

The Grand Pillar's carriage headed towards the Jinyi Bureau.

Sitting in the carriage, the Grand Pillar closed his eyes, his expression very calm.

Although the Grand Pillar was just a martial man, he wasn't good at playing power games with those people in the court.

However, after living for so long, the Grand Pillar wasn't ignorant of the intricacies of the court.

Even a turtle can become a spirit after a long time.

The Grand Pillar actually saw the affairs of the court very clearly, but he just didn't want to participate.

The Grand Pillar never provoked others, and others didn't have the courage to provoke him, but unexpectedly, even so, things still burned him.

The Grand Pillar was very clear in his heart that his son was likely being used as a pawn by others.

As for whether his son was aware of being used as a pawn? The Grand Pillar had quite a bit of confidence in his son's intelligence.

He felt that his son definitely knew, but the other party probably offered his son an irresistible condition.

Just as the carriage was swaying forward, the Grand Pillar, who had been closing his eyes, opened them.

The Grand Pillar looked at a spot beside him.

In the Grand Pillar's line of sight, a person gradually appeared from invisibility before his eyes.

The moment this person appeared, the entire carriage was filled with a faint floral fragrance.

This was a woman.

The woman was wearing a pink dress, and the ends of her hair had a hint of pink. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and beneath her eyelashes were a pair of light pink eyes.

The woman seemed like a pink hibiscus flower that had become a spirit.

Although this woman's appearance wasn't as stunning as the top ten beauties on the Red Beauty List, she was still amazing and could be considered a captivating beauty.

"Little girl Mujuan pays respects to the Grand Pillar."

The woman placed her hands on her waist, sat in the carriage, lowered her head, and bowed slightly.

The woman was like a hibiscus flower, and her name was "Mujuan".

The Grand Pillar's eyes stared at the beautiful woman in front of him like a hawk: "Never heard of you, who are you working for?"

Mujuan's lips curled up: "Answering the Grand Pillar, little girl is a guest of the one in the West."

"..."

Hearing "the one in the West", the Grand Pillar's brows furrowed tightly, and his strong martial aura pressed down on Mujuan like a mountain.

But Mujuan only had a smile on her face, and she didn't seem to be moved at all.

"What exactly does he want to do?" the Grand Pillar asked coldly.

"What our lord wants is very simple."

Mujuan's lips curled up, "Presumably, Grand Pillar, you also know."

"Heh heh!"

The Grand Pillar Mo Peinan sneered, "I told the late emperor before that the fellow in Xiliang has great ambitions and must be eliminated to prevent future troubles, but the late emperor was soft-hearted and didn't act because of the old friendship of fighting for the country together. Now he has become too powerful to control!"

"You can't say that, this Wu Kingdom's land was also conquered by our family's lord."

Mujuan's tone was gentle, "Besides, our lord has been guarding the border for nearly three hundred years. If he doesn't have merit, he has worked hard, right? If our lord hadn't been guarding the border, the current Wudu wouldn't be so peaceful."

"Humph!"

The Grand Pillar snorted coldly.

"The old partners who fought for the country before have either left or died. Now, only the two old men, me and Liu Feng, are left, plus your master. Your master should also be eliminated by the times along with us!"

"Grand Pillar, you're joking. You're a Boundary Realm martial artist. How many Boundary Realm martial artists are there in the world? Your words and actions can affect this world."

Mujuan said with her head lowered.

Mo Peinan glanced at Mujuan indifferently and didn't take the woman's flattery to heart: "Tell me, what exactly does your master want to do? Or does that fellow think I'm easy to manipulate? Is he really not afraid of me smashing his Xiliang Palace with one punch?"

Mujuan smiled slightly: "Of course he's afraid. How many people in this world aren't afraid of your fist? It's just that our master said that you owed our master a favor before, and it's time to repay that favor."

"..."

Mo Peinan's eyes narrowed.

Finally, Mo Peinan shrugged his shoulders like a tiger that had lost its energy: "Stop talking nonsense! I will repay the favor, but not every favor! And your master also knows that I hate being threatened the most."

Mujuan nodded: "That's natural. Our master also admires you very much, Grand Pillar. Therefore, he just wants you to help with a small favor."

The carriage continued to move towards the Jinyi Bureau.

Just as they were about to arrive at the Jinyi Bureau, the horses pulling the carriage felt that their burden had suddenly lightened a lot.

Finally, the Grand Pillar's carriage stopped in front of the Jinyi Bureau's gate.

Mo Peinan got out of the car, raised his head, and looked at the huge gate of the Jinyi Bureau.

On the gate of the Jinyi Bureau, there was a plaque personally written by the current Holy Emperor.

"Jinyi Bureau"

Mo Peinan read it out softly.

Mo Peinan didn't know if it was his illusion.

In this mansion where warriors gathered, there was actually a strong sense of righteousness.

At the same time, in the Jinyi Bureau, a person walked into Yu Pingan's duty room.

In the duty room, Yu Pingan and Xu Ming were drinking tea and eating pastries.

Yu Pingan hadn't eaten much of the pastries made by his Ping'er, most of them were eaten by Xu Ming.

Yu Pingan was also quite proud of his Ping'er in his heart.

Ping'er had said before that when she got old, she would open a shop and sell some pastries.

Now that the pastries made by Ping'er are even liked by Lord Xu, others will definitely like them too. Maybe he can even ask the Lord to inscribe a plaque and cut the ribbon at that time.

"My lord..."

Just when the two were feeling very relaxed, a Jinyi guard walked in and saluted Xu Ming and Yu Pingan.

"What's wrong?" Xu Ming nodded.

"Reporting to the lord, the Grand Pillar is here..."

Hearing the Jinyi guard's message, Xu Ming and Yu Pingan were stunned for a moment, and then Xu Ming smiled and said to Yu Pingan: "Let's go, let's go and greet this Grand Pillar together, the only Boundary Realm martial artist in our Wu Kingdom."

"Your Highness..."

The maid "Ren" came to Wu Yanhai's side.

"The Grand Pillar has arrived at the Jinyi Bureau, and Lord Xu has already gone to receive him."

"Mm." Wu Yanhan nodded, stood up, and walked outside.

Tang Ningzhi, who was sitting beside Xu Yanhan, also stood up.

Wu Yanhan glanced at Tang Ningzhi: "You're going with me too?"

Tang Ningzhi looked directly into Wu Yanhan's eyes: "Why can't I go?"
