NovelEnglish"You can't get inside without my help!" She didn't want to give up. The reason why she still bothered them was because she
hated Harper, who had just got that man's favor, but yet despised it.
The three of them stopped, and Lucas touched his nose. "It seems that only the guard can open the pavilion's gate, and others
won't be able to do it."
Harper waved her hand slightly. At once, the guard got dropped from the wall and went down on her knees. But she didn't dare
to attack them again. Instead, she stood up, calmed down, and led the way.
"Things wouldn't have turned this ugly if you had behaved more maturely. You should have offered them due respect. It's not a
big deal that they want to enter the pavilion. Everyone knows that it is Uncle Matthew who really guards our country." Lucas
grinned.
"Coward!" The secret keeper glared at Lucas. Despite being the emperor, he openly admitted that he was not as good as
Matthew. He was just trash!
Lucas shrugged and said casually, "I'm telling the truth. A man should never lie to himself. Do you dare say no? I don't know
what fate awaits us if the Bright Dynasty loses my uncle."
The guard kept her mouth shut. She was afraid that if she continued to say something, she might lose her control and even slap
confidence. In Matthew's presence, he turned out to be a pug trying to flatter him and didn't have the demeanour of an emperor
at all. When Harper saw the plaque and the black gate of the pavilion, a strange feeling rose in her heart. Surprisingly, she had a
feeling of familiarity. "The gate is made of meteoric iron. Except people of our pavilion, no one knows how to open it..." Harper
walked past the guard, placed her hand on the gate, and then pushed it gently. "Crunch!" The gate slowly opened up with a
squeak. The guard couldn't believe what she saw. She was stunned and stood there like a rock, completely forgetting how to
react. The gate weighing thousands of kilograms was pushed open by Harper, that too by giving it a gentle push.
Lucas stretched out a finger and poked the guard. "I remember you just said that only the people in your pavilion know how to
open the gate. Then how could Aunt Harper push it open so easily? Are you aware that you just committed another crime by
lying to the emperor?" The guard just stood there and watched the couple entering the pavilion. As the gate got closed again,
she still couldn't believe
what she witnessed. Trying to imitate Harper, she gently pushed the gate, but it remained unmoved.
The corners of Lucas' mouth moved. "Apply more strength," he said.
The guard pushed the gate once again, this time by applying heavy force. But the gate still remained unmoved. Embarrassed,
she felt like someone slapped her in the face. Who said that only the people here could open the gate? How humiliating!
Lucas couldn't help but burst out into laughter. He said, "The people in the Secret Pavilion themselves can't open the gate. Are
automatically to welcome them. And now, the chief guard of the pavilion cannot open the gate. How ridiculous you are!
hahaha..." The guard looked at Lucas who was convulsed with laughter, her face flushing with rage and embarrassment. She
couldn't understand what went wrong with the gate today. Usually, she could push it open with a light force. Was it possible that
the gate was sensible to different people?
"Your Majesty, is it that funny?" The guard was really pissed off. She hated to see Lucas laughing and rolling on the floor and
couldn't bear it. "Prince Matthew and his wife are inside the pavilion, only you and me outside!"
Lucas' laughter suddenly stopped, as if someone had grabbed his throat and made him silent in an instant. He quickly got up
from the floor, patted the non-existing dust from his robe, and said in a serious tone, "I'm just curious. Does this gate actually
recognize people? But I wonder if it can recognize me!"
Lucas stretched out his arms and legs for relaxation, took a deep breath, then applied great force to push the gate. But the gate
remained unmoved, and even the dust wasn't stirred up. He didn't give up and made another attempt, but the result was the
same!
"You are a bully among the weak and a coward among the powerful! Since you know you are not the rival of the couple, you .
humbled yourself and let them in. And knowing that I dare not do anything to you, you decided to shut me out. Aren't you afraid
that I will burn you down?" With arms akimbo, Lucas pointed at the gate and cursed.
"This is made of meteoric iron. It isn't afraid of fire. It's rare to see an emperor like you," the guard said, snorting.
"It appears you are the first guard to have been shut out. We're the same." With his arms folded across his chest, Lucas put his
face in front of the guard who raised her hand to punch him. "Beat me! Just beat me once! I warn you! I may not be a good
emperor, but I have my uncle to back me up. If he gets out in a while and knows about you hurting me, do you know the
consequences?"
