Chapter 91 Hongmen Banquet

When Su Qinghe saw that Li Mu agreed, he was very happy and immediately invited Li Mu to board his boat.

Chen Song and Yan Jie declined, saying that since His Highness was going to visit his relatives, there was no need for them to go together and they could just stay on the boat.

Su Qinghe tried to persuade them, but seeing that the two men were just declining, he stopped inviting them and just took Li Mu on the boat to the shore.

After a while, the passenger ship arrived at the shore.

But I saw several people on horseback waiting here.

These people are all members of the Yuzhou Su family.

One of them was about thirty years old, with a very sturdy build and a big beard that made him look very rough. He was clearly a martial artist.

This person is Su Qinghe’s son, Su Mao!

Seeing Li Mu getting off the boat with Su Qinghe, Su Mao hurried forward to greet them:

"Your Highness, our clan members just learned that you passed by Yuzhou. Please forgive us for not coming to greet you!"

Li Mu helped him up and said with a smile:

"My cousin and uncle came to greet me. Li Mu knows their intentions!"

After hearing this, Su Mao laughed out loud, stood up, grabbed Li Mu's hand, and invited him to get on the horse very affectionately.

Several people then surrounded Li Mu and walked towards the Su family mansion.

Soon, Li Mu was surrounded by them and came to the Su family mansion.

Su Qinghe said loudly:
"The prince is coming, why don't you come and greet him!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several men in long robes walked out of the courtyard, came up to Li Mu and bowed, saying:

"Welcome Your Highness."

Su Qinghe said with a smile:

"These are all members of our Su family. They are of the same generation as you and are your cousins!"

After Li Mu greeted everyone, Su Mao and a few men surrounded Li Mu and walked into the lobby.

Although Li Mu was deposed from the crown prince position, he was still a prince after all, and now a baron, so Su Qinghe invited him to sit at the top, and he, Su Mao, and a group of Su family members accompanied him on the side.

Li Mu glanced at the Su family members who were accompanying him.
I saw that they all had strong builds and looked like martial artists.

Then he smiled and said:

"I heard that our Su family has always passed down poetry and literature, but after seeing you today, it seems that several of my cousins ​​are martial artists."

Su Mao shook his head and sighed:

"Although our Daqian is peaceful, Your Highness, you are now in Tiangu Pass, and you have become a soldier. It's time for our Su family to change the way of passing down the family tradition!"

Suqing River:

"I heard that His Highness has joined the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry, and was also named a baron by His Highness the Third Prince?"

Li Mu smiled faintly and nodded.

Su Qinghe stroked his beard and smiled:

"So good!"

Although His Highness was deposed as the Crown Prince, he was able to join the Tiger and Leopard Cavalry and establish military merits in the army, so he can expect a comeback in the near future! "

Su Mao waved his hand:
"Your Highness is back, we should be happy today, let's not talk about these things, let's drink!"

As he said this, he raised the wine glass in his hand and toasted Li Mu.

Li Mu picked up the wine glass and smelled the strong aroma of wine, but he couldn't help but sigh:
"This wine is extremely fragrant!"

Su Mao said:
"Your Highness, you may not know that this wine is the famous Zuimengchun in Yuzhou, also known as Ruguxiang!"

Su Qinghe smiled and said:
"Once drunk, the fragrance reaches my bones, and the dream is long and lingering! This is the poem written by your maternal grandfather!"

"Oh!"

Li Mu smiled, picked up the wine glass, and drank it all with Su Mao.

Then, several men from the Su family toasted Li Mu. After a while, Li Mu drank several large cups and even looked a little drunk.

"This wine is really strong. My cousins ​​kept toasting me. I can't handle it."

When Su Qinghe heard what Li Mu said, he suddenly sneered:
"We can't handle these few glasses of wine. We can't handle the attack on the Su family by the Third Prince and His Majesty even more!"

Li Mu was startled.
But Su Qinghe and others suddenly changed their expressions.

The smile that was originally on his face was gone, replaced by a cold expression and a chill in his eyes.

Li Mu couldn't help but be shocked.
Just as I tried to get up, I felt weak all over.

This wine is actually poisonous!
Su Mao looked at Li Mu with cold eyes:
"Your Highness, I don't understand why you refuse to be a dead man in Tiangu Pass?"

Su Qinghe sneered:

"Since Your Highness refuses to surrender and stay dead, we have no choice but to help you!"

Li Mu sat on the chair and looked at them in amazement:

"You... have colluded with the Third Prince a long time ago?"

Su Qinghe shook his head.

"It can't be considered collusion, but our Su family has suffered too much because of you and your mother!"

"Ever since your mother was deprived of her position as Queen and even your position as Crown Prince was abolished, our Su family, who used to have the final say in Yuzhou, has ended up being bullied everywhere!"

"Rather than being implicated by you two, we might as well get rid of you ourselves and use your head to show our loyalty to His Royal Highness the Third Prince!"

"In this way, perhaps His Royal Highness the Third Prince will look up to us and allow the Su family to rise again!"

Li Mu was stunned and silent for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"So you guys want to borrow my head to beg for mercy from Li Tai so that you can get some bones from him!"

Su Mao slammed the table and was about to stand up in anger.

Su Qinghe shook his head:

"The drug in Zuimengchun has not yet reached its maximum effect, so let him have his fill first!"

"Now his limbs are only weak, but he can still struggle a little. If his grandfather's lobby is splattered with blood, it will be difficult to clean up!"

"This kid was able to kill the enemy chieftain at Tiangu Pass, so he must be quite capable. Don't underestimate the enemy!"

After hearing this, Su Mao sat down again, looked at Li Mu coldly, and said in a deep voice:
"Well, let's wait for the drug to take effect, then chop off his head!"

Several people looked at Li Mu coldly, as if they were looking at an ox or sheep that was about to lose all its strength and could only wait to be slaughtered.

Li Mu raised his head and glanced at the lobby.

It turns out that this is my grandfather’s ancestral home.

It seems that the seizure of my grandfather's property was also closely related to Su Qinghe.

He sighed and said:
"Since I will definitely die today, please tell me how my grandfather died!"

Su Qinghe stroked his beard and smiled complacently, saying:

"Since you're almost dead, it doesn't hurt to tell you!"

"Your old and stubborn grandfather heard that your mother was deprived of her position as queen and your position as crown prince was abolished, so he is going to mobilize the entire clan to go to the capital to seek justice for you and your son!"

"The Third Prince is in power and will definitely ascend the throne as emperor in the future. How can I watch the Yuzhou Su family being implicated by Su Hao!"

"No matter how I tried to persuade him, he just wouldn't listen. So that night, I used a pot of Zuimengchun with numbing powder to knock him out, and then suffocated him to death with a pillow!"

"This house is occupied by this old man!"

When Li Mu heard this, his eyes turned cold:
"I didn't expect you to admit it so openly in front of so many tribesmen!"

Su Qinghe smiled coldly, pointed at the several big men accompanying him and said:

"Except for Su Mao, these people are not your cousins ​​at all. They are martial artists raised by my family!"

"Tonight, I have specially prepared this Hongmen Banquet for you!"
