The banquet was chosen in Wu'an Hall, which also had a special meaning. In the past, when the old emperor was alive, he was hosting relatives of the Su family royal family in Wu'an Hall. Liu Yu summoned these people in Wu'an Hall to demonstrate the atmosphere of the family banquet.

As night fell, before Liu Yu and the other two arrived in front of Wu'an Hall, they saw Xu Xuanzhu following the female official and female military guards. Although Xu Xuanzhu was nominally a military general, she was Liu Yu's wife. She was like a queen in the court. Sui Yi, Sui Yu and Li Mi naturally had to come forward to greet him.

When everyone entered the Wu'an Hall, they saw that the candles on the red lacquer pillars around had been lit, making the hall illuminate. The maids in the palace were still cleaning the table, and they arranged the fruit plates, snacks and drinking utensils. They had to wait until all the guests came before they could come.

Seeing the busy scene of the maid, Liu Yu sighed a little, "It's been a long time since I saw that boy Hu Xuan, so I forgot to invite him over."

Li Mi and Sui Yi looked at each other, and they were a little confused about Liu Yu's meaning.

As one of the four old friends of the time, Hu Xuan was a young follower and had no opinion. Even Hu Xuan, who sent Su Yan's army, backed down. It was during that escort that he experienced the battle of Kuishui and Hu Xuan missed the opportunity to enter the court. Later, because of the Hu family's wrong team, Liu Yu ignored Hu Xuan and ignored him.

"It doesn't take much time to invite him. The Hu family is not far from the palace. Just send someone to call him." Sui Yi said, and suddenly smiled on his face, as if he had something else to say.

Liu Yu didn't understand any tricks, so he asked the guards to invite him. Because the people had not arrived yet, the group just sat in their seats, chatting and waiting for everyone to arrive. Han Sheng worked at Shangshu Desk and came first after work. Huo Bing came later. He was responsible for training troops in the schoolyard in the outer city and had to run to both sides of the martial arts hall. This time he heard that there was a banquet. He was not very happy. Because he prefers to go back to his residence and eat a big pot with Sanhu and Sihu and others in the sky. He thinks that this will make the taste of home.

When Huo Bing came, the topic became obviously biased. Huo Bing had no idea what he said, and he was stunned by what he said. Among Liu Yu and other direct descendants, Sui Yi was already a fantastic person in his words, but compared with Huo Bing, he was obviously a witch.

Finally, Chai Jin came late, and Su Bi came with him. Chai Jin looked very good. He walked into the Yaqian Hall and looked like he nodding and bowing. Su Bi kept a long distance from him. Su Bi entered the door, looked at Liu Yu, snorted coldly without saying a word, and found a desk casually, and sat behind him, regardless of how the banquet was arranged.

When Liu Yu saw this scene, he thought to himself that the smoke from the son-in-law's mansion had not yet dissipated. Since Chai Jin "submitted to the enemy" and married Ling Xu, who was big-bellied, came in, Su Bi had no intention of forgiveing ​​Chai Jin again. This time, Su Bi was willing to come, which made Liu Yu feel a little difficult. Maybe Su Bi had a sibling relationship with Su Yan, and knew that Su Yan was back from the disaster and was about to leave Chang'an City again. So he came to take a look.

"Hulu, my wife is my own, seize the opportunity." Liu Yu leaned over, patted Chai Jin on the shoulder, and said.

"Yeah." Chai Jin nodded hurriedly, but frowned again, as if he didn't understand what Liu Yu was saying.

After Chai Jin and his wife came, only Su Yan and Hu Xuan, who was invited later, did not come. Liu Yu thought about it and should have the meal, so he asked the maid to call the kitchen to serve the food, but the food had not yet been served. The guards below came to report that Su Yan had arrived in front of Wu'an Hall and said that he would not come in no matter what.

"According to this," Liu Yu stood up and said, "Even he has entered the gate of the palace. Can't this small hall accommodate him, the big Buddha?"

Liu Yu's tone was not good, and Han Sheng just sighed after hearing this. However, for other direct descendants of Liu Yu, who had a lower official rank than Han Sheng, their faces were not so normal. They knew the entanglement between Liu Yu and Su Yan better than the other.

Liu Yu went out to greet Su Yan in person, and then Su Yan touched his butt and sneaked into the door quickly. It was supposed that Liu Yu kicked his butt.

"Look for a seat for yourself, there are many empty seats, you can sit wherever you want." Liu Yuhou entered the door and said in the direction of the door.

Su Yan looked at the people present and found Su Bi, and was a little surprised. He originally wanted to walk over and sit with Su Bi, who was alone on the table, but he seemed to have no confidence to go over and sat in the last seat, as if he was deliberately trying to distinguish the line from Liu Yu.

Liu Yu did not force himself to sit down at the main table, picked up a glass of wine, and said, "It's rare to gather today, I'll give you a glass."

There was no toast, just a very simple opening remark. Liu Yu drank a glass of wine and the others also followed him. Only Su Yan and Su Bi did not move the wine glass.

"Bi'er...you have a drink too, this wine...is good." Chai Jin said to Su Bi across an empty desk table with his wife.

This sentence sounds a bit straightforward and even more stupid to outsiders. After hearing this, Su Bi didn't even glance at her eyes, and she pretended to be deaf.

Liu Yu ignored Su Bi, turned to Su Yan and asked, "Why don't you drink?"

"I...I don't want to get drunk." Su Yan looked at Liu Yu with a panic expression and defended him, "I'm drunk, I can't explain to Xiaoyu when I go back. I'll have to coax the child when I go back."

Liu Yu couldn't help but frown when he didn't drink, and he didn't drink alcohol, so he was so angry that he must have something to hide.

Liu Yu said: "How can you say it before you practice it today, but you don't drink it?"

Su Yan was stunned, with a very embarrassed expression, and his hands trembled and approached the wine glass and said, "Then... Master, I will drink one. If I drink too much, I will definitely get over my head. Just drink one..."

After saying that, I picked up the wine glass and tasted it briefly. I felt that the taste was not too strong, so I tilted my neck and drank it.

Seeing his cautious appearance, Liu Yu guessed whether he was afraid of poison in the wine or was afraid of saying something he shouldn't say after drinking?

Liu Yu winked at Huo Bing. Huo Bing had been eager to try it out. At this time, he couldn't wait to stand up from his seat, took the wine glass to Su Yan, poured a glass of wine and said, "Who is that? Look, we have a good relationship. You used to be the emperor and I was your soldier. Now I am a soldier. I would like to pay a cup of respect to you. Wouldn't you give face?"

Su Yan looked up at Huo Bing, and his instinctive body leaned back a little. Obviously, he was a little afraid of Huo Bing. Liu Yu looked at his face, and his expression seemed to be a little timid and afraid to see others.

Huo Bing poured wine for Su Yan, but Su Yan didn't take the wine glass. Huo Bing was not happy. In the past, Su Yan was the emperor, and he respected Su Yan as a god. Now Su Yan is not the emperor, Huo Bing is not afraid and thinks you are just like this. He despised Su Yan, and his attitude was no longer as friendly as he was when he was toasting. Instead, he stared at him with anger and looked like he was saying, "Why don't you drink?"

Su Yan seemed to be in a fierce psychological struggle, and was watched by others. He was extremely nervous. He wanted to pick up the wine glass, but he didn't dare to hold it. His hand wanted to retract, but he didn't dare to shrink. He was in a dilemma.

Finally, he still had no choice but to pick up the wine glass and tilted his neck to drink.

"That's right." Huo Bing nodded with satisfaction and smiled, "Come on, drink him three or five or seven cups first."

When Su Yan heard the "three, five, seven cups". He almost couldn't even sit steadily. Liu Yu had already figured out the situation and said, "Erhu, although he is not the emperor now, he is also the King of Southern. You retreat."

Huo Bing was the most worried about this. At the banquet, there were no outsiders. He had to start swearing and shouted: "What's so great about being a king? Didn't you say you would be the king of me? Why doesn't it count?"

Maybe he felt that it was indecent to say this in public, so Huo Bing returned to his seat with a wine pot. Su Yan seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and seemed to have been out of trouble, sitting there with his head down, as if he was afraid.

Everyone here was in good mood before coming, but they didn't expect that the banquet would become embarrassed because of Su Yan's loss of composure. Su Yan's expression became abnormal, and the others were not in a good mood to drink.

Liu Yu put down the wine glass and said earnestly: "King Nan. If you have any difficulties, just tell us. Look here, there are no outsiders except you and me. Even if your difficulties are a little difficult to express, these people will not laugh at you, but will help you."

Su Yan looked up at Liu Yu, as if observing whether Liu Yu said this. Finally, he shook his head and lowered his head again.

No word said.

Liu Yu suddenly felt like he was playing the piano. Su Yan sat there when he came, without drinking, and he didn't say anything to him. Should he have to go over and toast him by himself, and then he would speak up after he was drunk?

Liu Yu had no idea about playing the piano of a cow, and turned to Su Bi, who had been silent since the beginning, and said, "Your Highness Xinzhujun, we haven't seen each other for a long time. Today, I will give you a cup of honor to you when we meet you."

Su Bi's face was not good at all, and her eyes were a little dull. When she heard Liu Yu's words, she not only did not respond, but closed her eyes instead. It seemed to be turning a deaf ear and didn't even look at them.

Liu Yu held this banquet, but was inexplicably caused by the siblings. Could it be that the siblings still want to have a conspiracy and make a comeback?

Liu Yu was just thinking about how to break the deadlock, but suddenly, the guard Lian Husheng hurried in at the door and asked for instructions. Liu Yu waved his hand to let him come over.

"What's the matter?" Liu Yu asked Lian Husheng in a low voice.

Lian Husheng looked at everyone, and it seemed inconvenient to say it.

"That's right." Liu Yu said.

"Return to the general, the rebel minister Su Bi, was found dead at home."

When Liu Yu heard "Su Bi", he subconsciously glanced at Su Bi and thought to himself that Su Bi was dead and the ghost came to the banquet? When he thought about it again, he knew that "rebellious minister Su Bi" was referring to the third prince Su Bi who had been imprisoned by the old emperor for a long time and had been living like a dog life.

When Su Yan heard Lian Husheng's words, he seemed to be touched, staring at Lian Husheng with wide eyes, as if he had a lot to ask.

Liu Yu asked, "How long have you been dead?"

"When it was discovered, the body had already started to rot, and at least three or four days had passed away..."

Liu Yu sighed. If you want to talk about the sons of the old emperor, Su Bi is also the one with the ability. He was the one with the most chance to inherit the throne, but he was so obsessed with greed that he was instigated by Liu Yu and embarked on the road of treason, which was destined to be his end today.

Originally, Liu Yu didn't take it seriously, and Su Bi would die. If he hadn't been the son of the old emperor, he would have been killed in the nine clans long ago when he was involved in treason. How could he have lived for three years in vain? But this news would inevitably make people feel a little strange at the festive banquet.

The one who reacted the most intensely was Su Yan.

Su Yan's breathing became more and more rapid, his face became more and more sad, and finally he burst into tears with a "wow". This cry was like a turbulent river and the sea could no longer be taken care of.

“Wow…ah…”

The entire Wu'an Palace was filled with Su Yan's crying. His crying was not the kind that could not cry, but the tears were snot. Whether it was because he heard that his brother had passed away, he was overly sad, or if he had any other emotions. Liu Yu was not clear and could not say. However, Su Yan's cry seemed to have stimulated his emotions. Even Huo Bing, who didn't understand these worldly ways, felt that this "Lao Emperor" was a little strange.

The more Su Yan cried, the more sad he became, the more sad he cried. Liu Yu was in a vain mood to drink. Liu Yu stepped forward and grabbed him from the seat. However, Su Yan's body collapsed like a rotten persimmon and sat directly on the ground. After that, if Liu Yu pulled him, he would just stay on the mat, even crying there, without saying why. Liu Yu was anxious, and he even rolled on the ground, like a boy.

In this scene, everyone here can only watch the fire from the other side of the river. They don’t know how to comfort them or say something. A few people might look at each other. Finally, Sui Yi looked at Han Sheng. He thought Han Sheng would go up to persuade him, but in the end, the mature and stern Han Sheng also chose to watch the fun.

The atmosphere in the entire Wu'an Hall was extremely strange.

Finally, Liu Yu couldn't help it, and suddenly pulled out his sword and inserted it into the ground with a "swish!". Originally, Liu Yu wanted to threaten and said that you should be happy if you want to die. However, unexpectedly, this sword scared Su Yan's Lai Pi back, and Su Yan lay on the ground. Looking at the shaky sword, he seemed to have forgotten to cry, and he could only subconsciously sob.

"Why, are you scared?" Liu Yu was upset by Su Yan's crying and said coldly, "Why don't you cry?"

Su Yan suddenly got up, knelt on the ground, kowtowed and said, "Master, Master, don't kill me, I'm honest. I'll tell you honestly, don't kill me!"

When they heard Su Yan say "instruction", the people present felt that Su Yan has a "secret".

"If you have anything, just say it, don't be like a mangy dog. When your master, I drove you off the throne, but killed you? Even if you have any regrets to me and the court, let's just say it as an exaggeration!"

When Su Yan heard Liu Yu's words, he immediately explained, for fear that Liu Yu would repent if he said it was too slow.

"Master, actually when I was locked up, I...I did something wrong." Su Yan said.

Liu Yu touched the hilt of the sword stuck on the ground and asked, "What's wrong?"

"I...I joined them, that holy religion. Actually, Master, listen to me, I really don't believe in that god and ghost, but they insist on forcing me to believe, and they said they didn't believe me. I immediately castrated me as a eunuch. If I don't believe me, I will kill me to sacrifice to their god. Master, I was forced, you must believe me."

Liu Yu frowned and said, "You couldn't help but say and do whatever you say or do. Your master, I am so unintentional and insist on calculating you? What else?"

"And...and still, and there, I think about it, by the way, I remembered it. I have seen their leader, who is the largest official in the Holy Sect. He came once, but I knew him. Even if I just looked at the black shadow, I recognized him. He was he... He was my seventh brother, and I don't know why he became the leader."

After saying a word, everyone present was surprised. Except for Su Bi, they had already stood up, and Su Bi also looked at Su Yan with a look of shock. This was her most abnormal behavior since she arrived at the banquet today.

Everyone looked at Su Yan and looked at Liu Yu with a gloomy look. Even Su Yan was nervous and looked up at Liu Yu, as if he was afraid that Liu Yu would not keep his word.

Liu Yu was silent for a moment, his tone turned to a dull, and he said, "Actually, I have known about this, your master, for a long time." Liu Yu paused, "What did you promise your seventh brother?"

When he heard Liu Yu's words, Su Yan seemed to have been seen through. He thought that even the master of his promise to others knew about his work, and if he hid it, he would be seeking death.

"Master, when my seventh brother came to see me, he just wanted me to join the Holy Church and act as their escorts or something. Anyway, the official is quite high. Brother Qi said that if he kills you in the future, he will let me be the emperor for two more days. Then he asked me to give the emperor out and give it to him. I really... I really had no choice, so I promised him. I didn't regret it afterwards. When I came back this time, I was afraid that he would pester him to the door and I wouldn't even dare to go back home. Unexpectedly, he still asked someone to scare me... and said that if I didn't listen to them, they would shake my affairs out and kill me."

Although Su Yan's words were confusing, the focus was clear, which was equivalent to telling a big conspiracy.

Before, although Liu Yu had a positive attitude towards Su Zhe's existence, he had never verified it. Through Su Yan's account, he was sure that Su Zhe really existed and became the leader of the Three Pure Sects to plan for the throne.

Su Yan's words also show that the mysterious armed forces that kidnapped Su Yan in Lingnan and besieged Zhang Wuzhu and Qi's army were Su Zhe's men. In other words, Su Zhe is not simply a cult leader, or a leader with his own armed forces, and has the capital to challenge the court. More importantly, he has an inner support in the court, but Liu Yu still doesn't know what Su Zhe's trump card is.

After hearing this, Liu Yu didn't say a word. He just stood there. The entire Wu'an Hall was quiet.

The people present were all figures who were once closely related to Liu Yu. Even Su Bi had stood on the same position as Liu Yu. Before Su Yan was in power, Su Bi clearly stated that she would not support Su Zhe ascend the throne, so she formed a strategic alliance with Liu Yu and supported Su Yan ascend the throne. But now, Su Yan has fallen, and Su Bi has lost power. In the face of power and the interests of the Su family, she may not insist on her view of the day. In Liu Yu's view, perhaps she would hope that Su Zhe will come back soon and take down the throne again, so as to clear the Su family, as a rebel minister who usurped the country.
