Chapter 169: Intertwined Fates (1)
Early the next morning, after returning to Luojing, Wang Shi quickly separated from Su Mu.
The location of the Four Seas Inn has been exposed, and Su Mu obviously can't continue to stay in the guest room here at this time, Wang Shi dotted it and arranged Su Mu in the secret guest hall of the Situ family, so that he can rest and recuperate here with peace of mind, don't go out for the time being these days, and when the clan assembly officially begins, even the Mo family can't make a move on him at will.
As long as Su Mu can safely complete the registration of the clan conference and become an official participant, he will be protected by the clan court in the law, and no clan force will be allowed to privately harm the contestants during the competition.
At that time, even if Su Mu exposed himself, the Mo family would have no way to deal with him.
And as long as Su Mu can enter the top ten list of the clan conference, not only can he be recognized by the clan court and improve the clan grade of the Hanshan Sword Sect, but Su Mu himself can also have the right to be named in the clan court and be protected by the imperial court, and it is even more unlikely that the Mo family will have the opportunity to attack him.
What's more, the Mo family's reasons for targeting Su Mu were originally disgraceful.
Su Mu had no objection to this, and he also knew that if he swaggered on the street at this time, he would inevitably be a little too big-hearted. He knew that Aunt Lingxi and Master Wang had been very busy recently, and he couldn't keep them worrying about their safety.
As a super master of Luojing, the Situ family has one of the legendary three transcendent realms sitting in the formation, so it is naturally impossible for anyone to break into it at will. Su Mu lives in Beppu, and there is basically no one to interact with except for the servants who deliver meals, so Su Mu is naturally happy.
The only regret is that Aunt Lingxi doesn't seem to be living in Situ's house anymore, so Su Mu hasn't met him again since then.
Two days later, less than three days before the opening of the clan conference, Wang Shi sent a letter saying that Otowa had come to Luojing and was waiting for the opening of the clan conference at the Four Seas Inn, and completed the registration with Su Mu. So that Su Mu doesn't have to worry, just take care of himself.
Wang Shi also said in the message that Su Mu would be arranged to meet someone today, and someone from Situ Mansion would come to take him at that time, so just rest assured that he would follow.
Wang Shi didn't say who it was, and Su Mu didn't ask much, anyway, he would find out soon.
Around in the afternoon, a dignifiedly dressed Situ Mansion came to Su Mu's courtyard and invited Su Mu to go to the back garden to participate in the tea party.
"The back garden, could it be the place where I met Aunt Lingxi before?"
This Situ Mansion person also said that Su Mu couldn't go directly, he had to take care of himself first, and it would be more convenient to change his clothes.
What kind of guest did he have to change his clothes by himself? The doubts in Su Mu's heart became more and more serious, but he still followed the person to change his clothes.
After a while, Su Mu couldn't help but be a little stunned when he looked at his rejuvenated self in the mirror.
Isn't this a luxury?
At this time, the lilac dress Su Mu was wearing was full of delicate and delicate embroidery, and the long clothes were dragged to his feet, and the clothes were full of all kinds of exquisite ornaments, all of which looked very valuable, Su Mu's hair was also recombed, coiled into a good-looking bun, and his face was symbolically smeared with some very light rouge, so that his skin that had become a little translucent due to the practice of the Snow Mountain Neijing had some blood.

"It's really, completely uncomfortable. This dress made Su Mu very uncomfortable, wearing such heavy clothes and accessories, the whole person would inevitably have a feeling of inconvenience, fortunately, he could avoid the summer heat by running the snow mountain inner meridian, otherwise the stuffy atmosphere outside would be unbearable.
After freshening up and dressing up, Su Mu left with the Situ Mansion people and went to the back garden.
"Who am I going to see here?" On the way there, Su Mu couldn't help but ask, wanting to find out some clues from the mouth of this Situ Mansion.
"This subordinate doesn't know, he only knows that he is the honored guest of Lord Jingge, and he must be received with the highest courtesy of Situ Mansion. ”
The size of this Situ Mansion is indeed far beyond Su Mu's imagination, and he followed a series of twists and turns, and walked a full stick of incense, and then he arrived at the back garden of his destination.
At the entrance of the back garden, dozens of soldiers in iron armor surrounded the place, all of them with solemn faces and meticulous faces, completely ignoring the beads of sweat rolling down their faces and foreheads, and stood like statues.
This kind of posture made Su Mu even more curious about who was inside.
The Situ Mansion man stepped forward, showed his family badge to a non-commissioned officer general, whispered a few more words to him, and then waved his hand to Su Mu to let him pass.
Su Mu walked into the courtyard of the back garden under the gaze of a group of soldiers, although he was not stunned in his heart, but the feeling of being stared at like this was indeed a bit strange.
Walking into the door of the back garden, Su Mu found that this was not the place where he met Aunt Lingxi before, although the scene was very similar, but the direction was different, and the placement of flowers and plants was also subtle.
I wonder what the owner of such a mansion thinks when there are two gardens so large and so similar. Could it be that the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce really has a lot of money and is useless?
Su Mu looked ahead, there were four people in the pavilion not far away, two of them were sitting and drinking tea and talking, and the other two were separated, Su Mu could feel the extremely terrifying true qi fluctuations in these two people, looking at the personal guards of the person who was talking.
"Su Shaoxia, you're here!" one of them stood up, and Su Mu remembered that this person was Situ Jing, who had a relationship before.
Su Mu bowed and saluted Situ Jing, but she didn't know what kind of calculation she had in her heart.
"Your Highness, this is the new disciple of the Situ family, Su Mu of the Cold Mountain Sword Sect, whom I mentioned to you before. Situ Jing turned to the person in front of him and said, "He is also going to attend the clan meeting in three days." ”
"As for the one in front of you, it is His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the current dynasty. ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Su Mu was stunned for a moment, of course he had heard of the name of the crown prince Liu Changxi, who was the one who single-handedly resolved the war between the two countries three years ago and saved the lives of thousands of soldiers and clan children. It is also the person who Wang Shi has always emphasized that he wants to make friends with himself, but he didn't expect to sit in front of him like this at this moment, and he is carefully looking at himself with a pair of eyes that seem to be able to see through everything.
"Situ Shousi, I heard that the Situ family has been focusing on business, and there have never been any outsiders in the past hundred years, I don't know how you dug up this Su Shaoxia?" the prince asked, his voice was as warm as jade, but there was a faint sense of majesty.
