Wen Yu invited Su Xin to the Prince of Shu's Mansion for a chat, but Su Xin wasn't particularly keen on going.
He hadn't exactly helped Ji Yanxiu back then. If anything, he could be said to have led the prince into a trap.
Su Xin had indeed helped Ji Yanxiu stabilize his power in Bashu Circuit, but in the end, he had also used Ji Yanxiu to get rid of Qiu Baichuan, the Chief Constable of Bashu Circuit.
At the time, Ji Yanxiu had wanted to back out, but Su Xin had threatened him, leaving him no choice but to go through with it.
Ji Yanxiu had been badly burned by Su Xin, and when Su Xin left, he had been so furious he'd ground his teeth. So why did he want to see Su Xin now?
Still, Su Xin had important business to attend to and no time to play mind games with Ji Yanxiu. So he politely declined. "I appreciate the Prince of Shu's kind invitation, but I have important matters to handle here in Bashu. Perhaps we can catch up another time, when I have a free moment."
Su Xin turned to leave, but Wen Yu hurriedly stepped in front of him and said with a smiling face, "Please wait, Lord Su. His Highness truly wishes to catch up with you and thank you for your help back then. It won't take long. Surely you aren't so busy that you can't spare a single day?"
Seeing how anxious Wen Yu was, a faintly amused smile appeared at the corner of Su Xin's mouth.
As the saying went, no one rose before dawn without a reason. What was Ji Yanxiu so eager to do?
But since Wen Yu had put it that way, Su Xin didn't mind
