Chapter 321 A chaotic wedding
Tian Lin didn't want to say more, but the subsequent development of the matter made him somewhat confused.
Because the servants sent by the Su family to look for Su Shaoqing were all called back by Su Shaoqing's mother.
Tian Lin thought that Su Shaoqing had been found, but the fact was that Su Shaoqing never showed up in the next two days.
And those friends of Su Shaoqing who came to congratulate him had never seen Su Shaoqing.
Finally, someone realized that something was wrong, but they didn't want to meddle in other people's business. Secondly, the next day was the wedding day, so everyone pretended to be confused and waited for the wedding day to arrive.
It was the day of the wedding banquet. Early in the morning, Su's mother ran out, crying and saying that her son was missing.
When the news came out, the servants of the Su family were fine, but most of the guests were shocked.
"Who last saw Shaoqing?"
The elder of the Su family started to ask questions, and Su's mother wiped her tears and said, "The day before yesterday, my son told his sword slave that he was going out of the city to keep an appointment. The only one who saw my son was the sword slave."
Upon seeing this, the elder of the Su family immediately ordered someone to call Su Shaoqing's sword slave.
The sword slave knelt on the ground and said, "My master said that he was going out of the city to meet a guest from the Daoist sect. But he never came back after he left."
The elder of the Su family questioned him: "You are his sword slave. Why didn't you follow him when he went to meet the guests from the Dao Sect?"
The sword slave complained, "I wanted to go too, but the master said his Wind Chaser could only carry two people, so he only brought Miss Bao Jianshu."
After hearing this, the elder asked Su's mother, "Since he disappeared the day before yesterday, why didn't you tell us about it the day before yesterday?"
Mother Su immediately explained: "I thought it was just a normal visit. When the wedding day comes, Qing'er will definitely come back. Who would have thought?"
As she spoke, she covered her face and cried.
The guests who were invited to the main hall at this time were all silent. Most of these guests were Jindan cultivators and had close ties with the Su family.
The guests were silent at this time, and the room was very quiet for a while. There were only a few cultivators in the late stage of foundation building, peeking at the door of the main hall, obviously trying to figure out what was going on.
Just at this moment, there was a commotion outside the main hall.
The elders in the main hall heard the noise outside and shouted, "What's going on outside? How can you make such a fuss?"
The Su family's housekeeper came in with a young man. He first bowed to the clan elders, then pointed at the young man kneeling on the ground and said, "This guy just talked nonsense, and I was scolding him."
The young man was terrified and said, "I deserve to die. I shouldn't have made such wild guesses on the young master's wedding day."
The elder asked him, "What are you guessing about? Also, what's hidden in your package that has such a strong smell?"
The young man quickly opened the package and said, "I found this at the pavilion in the center of the lake outside the city!"
At this time, the guests all turned their heads to look at the opened package, and Tian Lin and others also looked at the package.
Inside the package were bloody shoes and jade jewelry.
When the jewelry and shoes appeared this month, Su's mother cried even louder.
She walked forward, snatched the package and said, "These clothes are my son's clothes, and these jade pendants are given by me to Bao Jian Shu'er."
The guests in the main room had to speak up at this time: "What was the purpose of the visitor from the Wendao Sect who secretly invited Shaoqing to go out of the city for a private talk? And what's the matter with the bloody clothes now?" Many people looked at Tian Lin and his companions, because Tian Lin and his companions were from the Wendao Sect.
"Master Su had a secret conversation with me and the disciples of the Daoist Sect. This matter is all one-sided words from Master Su's sword slave. I'm afraid it's hard to draw conclusions about what happened."
Tian Lin knew for sure that Su Shaoqing had run away from his marriage.
And Su Shaoqing had escaped from his marriage about four days ago. How could he have talked to Jian Slave two days ago and said that he was going outside the city to have a secret talk with the people from the Wendao Sect?
"Great Elder, this is not just my one-sided statement. The Madam also knows about the secret conversation between Young Master Su and the Taoist priests."
Mother Su wiped her tears and nodded, "My son did tell me that he wanted to go out of town to meet his friends."
No one else thought that Su's mother was lying. After all, no one could see the benefits of Su's mother lying.
On the contrary, Tian Lin's previous defense seemed more like an attempt to exonerate the Wendao Sect.
"Perhaps someone tricked Master Su out of the city in the name of a disciple of the Daodao Sect? The person who met Master Su might not really be a member of the Daodao Sect."
When a Jindan cultivator spoke, most people nodded in agreement.
Tian Lin was speechless for a moment. He knew that these people wanted to save face for Wendao Sect - after all, they were just guests of the Su family, not real members of the Su family.
What does the truth of the matter have to do with them?
Moreover, if the thing was really done by the disciples of the Wendao Sect, should we seek an explanation from the Wendao Sect or just bear with it?
"Black is black, white is white! I don't think your wife would want her son to disappear in obscurity, right?"
Tian Lin looked at Su's mother, who was obviously stunned.
At this time, Ju Yunhai said: "Why did Master Su disappear, and what happened to the blood-stained clothes? This matter cannot be clarified in a short time.
The most urgent thing is to tell my junior sister that Master Su is missing."
The elder of the Su family nodded and said to the housekeeper, "Quickly send someone to West City to tell Miss Wang what happened here. We need to give her time to regret."
After the old saying of the Su clan, Su's mother stopped crying and stood up and said, "All the guests in the city have gathered, and now everyone is waiting for my son to get married. If Miss Wang regrets the engagement, wouldn't that be a joke to my Su family and all the guests in the city?"
"Marriage is a big deal. Now it is unknown whether Su Shaoqing is alive or dead. If you do not allow my junior sister to break off the engagement, do you want her to marry into your Su family without knowing why and live as a widow for the rest of her life?"
Ju Yunhai looked at Su's mother and the elder of the Su clan with anger and said, "Even if this matter is exposed, your Su family is still in the wrong."
Su's mother said, "Whether my son is alive or dead, that's up to you to ask the Daoist sect. I think my Su family has nothing to do with your Daoist sect, but you all came to treat him to a feast and ended up 'eating' him to death. I don't know what your intention is."
"How can you say they have nothing to do with me? I invited these brothers here. Since it's my big day, is there anything wrong with them coming over to drink?"
At this time, a female voice sounded outside the main hall, and Tian Lin and others recognized it as Wang Yanyu's voice.
It turned out that when everyone was arguing, the Su family's housekeeper had already gone out.
But in fact, there was no need for the Su family’s housekeeper to go out, because Wang Yanyu in West City had already received the news.
Perhaps she came in a hurry, and she had not taken off her red makeup. Except for not wearing a veil, she was dressed like a bride.
