Daqian deposed the crown prince, and the emperor begged him to stop rebelling

Chapter 90 Yuzhou, the relatives of the deposed prince

Early in the morning, the south gate of Tiangu Pass.

Li Mu rode on his horse and bowed to Xie Lang, Wang Bing and others in farewell.

Xie Lang looked at Li Mu, his eyes full of worry:
"Captain Bai, you really don't want me to accompany you?"

Li Mu glanced at Xie Lang and smiled:
"Your injuries cannot be healed in a short time, so you'd better stay in Tiangu Pass!"

Xie Lang frowned:

"Then why didn't you bring Shen Pingan and Wang Bing with you?"

Li Mu shook his head:

"It would be useless for them to go. It would be more efficient for me to come alone."

Hearing his words, Xie Lang couldn't help but shake his head and sigh.

Wang Bing glanced behind him and said hatefully:
"This Shen Pingan is the same. Bai Chang is leaving for the Demon Country, but he didn't even come to see him off!"

"It was in vain that Captain Bai saved him that day! If it weren't for Captain Bai, the grass on his grave would be several feet deep by now!"

Li Mu smiled faintly:
"Everyone has his or her own ambitions, don't force yourself!"

After saying this, he cupped his fists towards the two men and the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry behind them and said:
"Everyone, the mountains are high and the road is long, let's say goodbye now!"

"Send Baichang!"

All the Tiger and Leopard Knights clasped their fists and spoke loudly.

After Li Mu clasped his fists, he smiled at everyone, then turned around, rode his horse and galloped forward.

He had just run out more than ten steps when he suddenly heard a desolate horn sounding from the top of the city wall.

Turning around, I saw a figure standing on the top of the city wall.

He was dressed in iron armor, his back was as straight as a gun, and his gray hair and beard were flying in the wind.

Behind him, a trumpeter was blowing a horn.

The desolate sound of the horn was like a long sigh bidding farewell to Li Mu.

"Old General, let's say goodbye!"

Li Mu clasped his fists and bowed towards the top of the city wall, then turned around and rode away.

Behind them, Chen Song and Yan Jie looked at each other, clasped their fists and waved to Li Si and others behind them, then followed Li Mu and left quickly.

……

Along the way, Chen Song and Yan Jie always followed Li Mu. Their attitudes were not very respectful, but there was no sign of any unusual intentions.

Li Mu knew that since Li Tai ordered the two of them to escort them, he would definitely not let them take action within the territory of Qian.

Otherwise, everyone in Qian Kingdom would know that it was the people sent by the Third Prince who killed the deposed Crown Prince within the country.

But once you leave Qian Country, it’s hard to say!
So, Li Mu was calm along the way, eating when he was hungry and sleeping when he was tired.

The three of them set out from Tiangu Pass and hurried southwest, arriving in Yuzhou a few days later.

Yuzhou is located in the southwest of Qian State. The territory is known as the 800-li Yunmeng Lake, but there are many rivers and waterways, and lakes are scattered like stars.

After arriving in Yuzhou, the three men stopped riding horses and took a passenger ship instead.

The passenger ship went south along the river and passed Yuzhou City in less than half a day.

Li Mu stood at the bow, looking at the distant green mountains and the vast sea of ​​smoke, and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

At this time, Chen Song smiled and said:
"Your Highness, if you pass by Yuzhou, won't you go take a look?"

Li Mu shook his head lightly.

Yuzhou is actually Li Mu’s mother’s hometown.

Li Mu's mother was the daughter of the Su family in Yuzhou.

The Yuzhou Su family is a noble family.

The family has lasted for hundreds of years and has as many as ten thousand people in it!

More than ten years ago, during the Qian Kingdom's beauty contest, the Su family of Yuzhou sent the stunningly beautiful Miss Su to the capital. As expected, she was favored by Emperor Qian at first sight and was taken directly into the palace!

Two years later, she gave birth to a prince and was officially made queen. The Yuzhou Su family thus became royal relatives and enjoyed all the glory and honor.

However, Emperor Qian was seriously ill. After the third prince Li Tai ascended the throne, the queen was banished to the cold palace, and even the crown prince Li Mu was deposed and sent to Tiangu Pass as a death row prisoner.

The Yuzhou Su family was naturally affected by this series of turmoil.

My grandmother had passed away long ago, and my grandfather Su Hao only had this one daughter.

When he heard that his daughter had been deposed as queen and his grandson had been deposed, he fell ill and died within a month.

The other tribesmen did not say a word at this time, and did not even go to Tiangu Pass to visit Li Mu.

I heard that even my grandfather Su Hao’s property has been divided among the clan members.

Human nature is fickle, nothing more than that!
Therefore, Li Mu, who had traveled through time, had no good feelings towards his mother's family members at all.

When Chen Song and Yan Jie heard what Li Mu said, they couldn't help but look at each other, with a hint of subtle sarcasm in their eyes.

In a blink of an eye, the sun sets and a hint of dusk has already covered the sky.

At this moment, a passenger ship suddenly came speeding from the distance.

An old man in green standing on the bow of the boat, seeing Li Mu standing on the bow from afar, he shouted:

"Is the person on the boat in front of you the former Crown Prince Li Mu?"

Li Mu was slightly stunned.

Looking towards the passenger ship in the distance, I saw the old man in green shirt with a thin figure, sallow skin, and a bunch of gray goatee fluttering gently in the wind.

It was the patriarch of the Yuzhou Su family, Li Mu's uncle:

Su Qinghe!
Soon the two boats met on the water. Su Qinghe smiled and said across the water:
"Your Highness, I heard that you left Tiangu Pass and went to the Demon Country to participate in the opening of the Ghost Warrior Gate at Fallen Fairy Lake. I am here to welcome you on behalf of the Yuzhou Li family. Please stay here for one night!"

Li Mu glanced at Su Qinghe, clasped his fists and said calmly:
"Thank you for welcoming me, uncle. You don't need to rest!"

His maternal grandfather Su Hao has passed away, and even the family property has been divided up among the clan members. He no longer has a single direct relative in the Su family in Yuzhou.

It’s better not to keep the Yuzhou Su family!

Su Qinghe smiled slightly and said:
"Your Highness, are you still resentful because Uncle Hao's property was divided up by his clansmen?"

Li Mu smiled faintly and did not comment.

Su Qinghe sighed:
"Uncle Hao has no offspring, and His Highness has entered Tiangu Pass. It is common for the clansmen to disperse Uncle Hao's property. Although I can't bear it, there are so many clansmen that I can't do anything about it!"

Speaking of this, he even shed a few tears.

It seemed that he was truly heartbroken by Su Hao's death and the misfortunes that Li Mu had encountered.

After wiping the corners of his eyes, Su Qinghe sighed:
"Please don't take this matter to heart, Your Highness. It will ruin my wish to send you off!"

At this time, Chen Song said beside him:
"Your Highness, it's getting late. Since the Li family is sincere about staying overnight, you can just stay here for one night."

Li Mu frowned slightly but didn't speak.

Suddenly, a line of text appeared in front of me:
[Ding! Hidden mission started! ]

[Hidden Mission: The truth behind it! ]

[Please host stay in Yuzhou to find out the real cause of death of grandfather Su Hao! ]

[After completing the task, the host can obtain a random selected reward! ]

[Reward 1: Poison-avoiding pill! ]

[Reward 2: Rejuvenation! ]

[Reward 3: The Art of Controlling Women! ]

Seeing these lines of text, Li Mu couldn't help but be shocked.

Could it be that

Grandfather didn’t really die of illness?
No wonder he died mysteriously just after his mother was banished to the cold palace.

It seems that I have to stay in Yuzhou!

Thinking of this, he smiled at Su Qinghe:
"Since my uncle has kindly invited me to stay overnight, then Li Mu has no choice but to bother you!"
