One joke from the witch, I open the gate of heaven with one sword

Chapter 59 Brother Xu Zhou
the next morning,

Xu Lan just left the Sun's residence and returned home.

When he returned to the mansion, his mother Yan Yu had already woken up.

It's just that my mental state is not very good.
All Xu Lan could do at this time was to comfort her not to worry too much.

"Mother, brother should return to the mansion tomorrow."

Xu Lan sat beside Yan Yu and said softly: "When the time comes, I will take care of him at home, so I can go to Kyoto without worry."

"Lan'er, let the yamen handle this matter."

Yan Yu held her son's hand and said: "If you have any troubles, how will I face the ancestors of the Xu family after I go down?"

"I worry about them."

Seeing this, Xu Lan said, "Even if something really happened to my father, I will investigate and find out."

Although he instinctively believed that his father was still alive, he still prepared for the worst.

"And this time I didn't go alone, the head of the Sun family walked with me."

Xu Lan then added: "Her cultivation is second only to the Fifth Realm, so there shouldn't be much of a problem."

"Forget it, you've already made plans."

Yan Yu sighed slightly,

What my son decided to do when he was young, no matter how much others persuade him, he can't change his mind.

……

Afterwards, Xu Lan didn't stay idle either.

Now that Yan Yu fell ill on the bed, the burden of the entire Xu family fell on him.

"This trip to Kyoto is estimated to take a long time, and I need to arrange everything before leaving."

Xu Lan thought in his heart,

Before he left, he still had to spare some time to visit senior Ouyang.

At noon on the third day, a group of young men in blue robes appeared in front of Qingzhou city gate.

"As expected of the Great Chu Dynasty, just the city gate of Qingzhou looks much more impressive than the capital city gate of the Dagan Dynasty."

One of the young men said frankly: "I have never heard you mention the family affairs. Could it be that your family is still a famous family in Qingzhou?"

"Senior brother is joking."

Next to him, a scholar wearing a square scarf shook his head and said, "My family is just a small family in Qingzhou."

"Don't forget the teacher's instructions on this trip."

At this time, a blue-robed woman with a long sword on her back in the crowd slowly stepped forward and said, "Especially you guys, this is not the Daqian dynasty, don't make troubles and make trouble for the younger brother."

"Master, I understand."

The man who spoke just now said with a hearty smile, "Let's go, Junior Brother."

"Well, let's go."

Xu Zhou glanced at the towering Qingzhou City Wall, with thoughts in his mind.

What happened at home?

Brother, why did he send people to Daqian Academy overnight so that he could rush back as quickly as possible.

Just at this time,

A group of soldiers at the city gate felt extremely strange when they saw Xu Zhou and others, so they stopped them.
Although there is an endless stream of businessmen coming and going in Qingzhou every day,
But the eyes of these soldiers guarding the city were more poisonous than the last, and they could naturally tell at a glance that Xu Zhou and the others were not businessmen.

"According to the laws of Dachu, if you want to enter the city, please dismount and undergo inspection."

"My name is Xu Zhou, I'm from Qingzhou."

Seeing this, Xu Zhou got off his horse and said politely: "These are my classmates. We have made an appointment to visit Qingzhou together."

"Surname Xu?"

The soldier was slightly taken aback, and asked casually, "What's your relationship with Xu Lan?"

"He's my elder brother."

Xu Zhou was immediately confused. Could it be that the person in front of him was his elder brother's friend?
"It turns out he's Mr. Xu's younger brother. Just go in."

Hearing that the soldier looked him up and down,
Although the Xu Zhou in front of him was far less outstanding than Xu Lan, his outline was somewhat similar.

It seems that he is indeed Xu Lan's younger brother.

"Ah, this"

Xu Zhou came to his senses and thanked him again and again.

"And you said that your family is not a famous family?"

The companion behind teased: "It seems that our little junior has a not simple background."

"Brother, stop laughing at me."

Xu Zhou smiled bitterly.

In fact, he didn't understand what happened in his mind.

Why does my eldest brother seem to have become so famous in Qingzhou?

That's all, you'll know when you get home.

Not long after that, Xu Zhou and a group of people appeared in front of the house.

After seeing Xu Zhou's appearance, the servants at the door hurriedly welcomed him into the mansion.

What puzzled Xu Zhou was that,
Not only did he not see his elder brother when he returned home, why are his father and mother not there?
"Where's my brother?"

Xu Zhou looked at Hong Luan in front of him,
Although I have never seen her, I heard from others that she just entered the Xu Mansion some time ago.

She and another one named Qingluan are both elder brother's personal maids.

"Young Master, he is busy, and he will come back after a while."

Hongluan said softly,
My young master has been too busy these days, so he hardly has time to stay in the mansion.

Today he is going to find Senior Situ and then go to the Wang family to inquire about the news.
If the Wang family still has no way to provide any clues, then it is time for him to leave for Kyoto.

"Where's my mother?"

Xu Zhou didn't realize what happened at home, he just felt strange why the atmosphere at home looked so weird.

"Madam fell ill a few days ago"

Afterwards, Hong Luan also told the whole story,
After hearing this, Xu Zhou's expression changed drastically. He never thought that such a thing would happen at home during this period of time.

"Where is my mother?"

Xu Zhou asked anxiously, "What did the doctor say?"

"Second son, please be safe and don't be impatient. Madam has just taken the medicine and fell asleep."

Hongluan patiently said: "I guess it will take a while for Madam to wake up, it will be better for Second Young Master to go."

“good good”

Xu Zhou took a deep breath, he knew he couldn't rush in this situation.

Then he asked anxiously: "How is my mother now?"

"Elder Sister, I will trouble you to check my mother's pulse later."

Xu Zhou then set his sights on the woman with the sword,
The tone is sincere: "I don't trust other people's medical skills."

His senior sister was not only excellent in martial arts, but also had medical skills that were passed down from her teacher.

"Of course there is no problem."

The woman nodded, but after hesitating for a moment, she said, "But how do you plan to handle this matter?"

Although this is Xu Zhou's family matter,
But since they were ordered to escort Xu Zhou home,
No matter what happened during the period, Xu Zhou's safety must naturally come first.

"No matter what, this matter will eventually be investigated and found out."

Xu Zhou pondered for a moment and then said: "My eldest brother has not liked martial arts since he was a child, so I don't trust him to handle these things."

However, just as he finished speaking, there was a laugh like a silver bell from outside.

"Xu Lan, another person said that you didn't like martial arts since you were young. This sentence is really the funniest joke I've ever heard in my life, bar none."
