Chapter 267 My Brother's Name Is Liu Sheng

"What exactly is going on? Tell me slowly." Xu Han noticed that the youth seemed to be in a panic. He comforted him in a low voice to calm the youth down.

"That's right. Don't worry, you'll be safe in Tiance Prefecture. No one can hurt you." Fang Ziyu hurriedly said. This Eldest Miss Fang was the Lord who hated evil as much as vengeance. She had already labeled those servants as evil people in her heart when she treated this young man like this.

Halfway through, the youth coughed violently. "Yes, it's like this … cough cough cough cough cough cough."

"How about this. Follow me into the manor first, let Keqing show you the injuries on your body, then eat some food, and then tell me carefully. Don't worry, since you've beaten the drum of grievance, I, Tiance Prefecture, will be responsible for this matter to the end." Xu Han smiled and said when he saw his appearance.

Perhaps it was the attitude of the group of people that made the youth feel at ease, or perhaps his injuries were too severe. After a moment of silence, he finally nodded.

…

The youth was brought to the side room by Qin Keqing and Chu Chouli. First, to treat his injuries, but to prepare some food for him. Meanwhile, Xu Han, Ye Hongjian and the others returned to the main hall in Tiance Prefecture.

At that moment, Ye Hongjian walked to Xu Han and frowned, "Xiao Han, that youth's origin is unknown. You must be careful."

"What do you mean? Look at how pitiful he is. He's been beaten to such a state. What are you careful of?" Fang Ziyu asked in confusion.

"Ziyu! This precaution is indispensable." Ye Hongjian was also helpless towards Miss Fang's simple thoughts. "Don't you think the timing of that youth's appearance is too strange? Those servants are so sturdy. He is so weak and seriously injured. How could he have escaped to Tiance Prefecture so easily?"

"I think he's about to be killed by those beatings. Could it be that he's still acting?" Fang Ziyu curled his lips, obviously not taking Ye Hongjian's words seriously.

Ye Hongjian was dumbfounded.

"Don't worry, I know." Seeing the two of them acting like this, Xu Han hurriedly stood up and whispered.

Of course, he knew what Ye Hongjian meant, and he also knew that there were many strange things about that youth's appearance. It was even possible that it was Gu and Zhao families's trap to lure the monarch into the urn.

However, he had to listen to the youth's words before he could judge.

Hearing this, Ye Hongjian felt relieved. Xu Han's mind was meticulous. As long as he realized this, she naturally did not need to worry.

…

The three of them had dinner in the hall, and the youth named Liu Xiao was also led to the hall by Chu Chouli and Qin Keqing.

The injuries on his body had been bandaged up and his expression was much better than before.

However, perhaps because the reputation of the Tian Ce Mansion was too great, the youth who walked into the hall still had a slightly cowering expression on his face.

"Are you feeling better?" Xu Han looked at the youth and asked with a smile.

"Returning Manor Master, it's much better." The youth hurriedly replied, looking at how frightened he was.

"Then tell me, why are you beating the drum of grievance? What happened to your sister? What happened to those villains chasing you?"

Hearing this, the youth pondered for a moment and then said, "To be honest, I was originally from the Azure Province. I was always hungry, separated from my family, displaced, and fled to this place with my younger sister."

"Relying on the help of a kind old woman, she works as a laborer in front of her."

"Later on, the old woman got older. She didn't survive the winter of three years ago, so the shop was given to me."

"Originally, the two of us were leaning against that shop. Although we weren't rich and wealthy, we didn't have to worry about food and clothing. In this kind of year, we can be considered satisfied."

"But …" At this point, the teenager's eyes turned red. "But the Gu Clan's Young Master, Gu Lianying, coveted the beauty of his younger sister and wanted to seize it."

"My sister doesn't want to agree, so the Gu family's young master brought people to cause trouble at our noodle stall several times. Since business can't go on, we want to sell that noodle shop, leave Chang'an and go to our hometown in Qingzhou."

"But who would have thought that the Gu Clan's young master would know about this? He brought people to kidnap me and my sister overnight."

"They beat me up so badly that they wanted to sell me to someone in the capital. Fortunately, the little policeman took advantage of the situation to escape and was rescued by the Manor Master!"

"But my sister is still in the hands of the Gu Clan's Young Master. Please, Lord Manor Master, save my sister!"

After the youth finished speaking, he hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed to Xu Han, his face filled with urgency.

"You said you ran out. Those servants are so strong, can you run out?" Without waiting for Xu Han to respond, Ye Hongjian asked with a frown.

"They escorted the little one on the road, but when they passed by a street, the crowd was bustling and the little one had a chance to take advantage of it." The youth said this, but a trace of panic flashed in his eyes.

When Ye Hongjian saw his expression, her eyes narrowed and she asked, "You said that you are from Qingzhou. You fled here a few years ago? How old were you then? Can you bring your sister to Chang'an?"

'"The little one is indeed from Qingzhou. He originally had a brother, but he didn't want to get separated in the outskirts of Shangyun City and sell noodle shops with his sister. This is to avoid the Gu Clan's young master, and this is to go back to Qingzhou to find a relative."

The youth hurriedly said, and then anxiously said, "My sister is still in the courtyard that Young Master Gu bought outside. Please hurry up and save her. Otherwise, it will really be too late!"

The corner of Ye Hongjian's mouth hooked into a smile at that time. She had probably guessed that there must be something hidden in this youth's words, and she was about to expose it.

But at that time, Xu Han remained silent. After hearing the youth's words, his body suddenly trembled. He stood up and looked at the youth with a flash of light in his eyes.

"You said your name is Liu Xiao?"

"A native of Qingzhou?"

"You have a sister?"

"Is there another elder brother wandering around Shangyun City?"

Xu Han asked in a daze. The expression on his face was extremely unnatural. Ye Hongjian could even vaguely feel the teacup in his hand trembling slightly.

The youth also noticed Xu Han's strange behavior. He was stunned for a moment, but he still nodded, "Indeed."

"When did you lose your brother?" Xu Han asked again, his eyes flickering with light.

"The autumn of the twelfth year of Taiyuan."

Hearing this, Xu Han's body trembled even more clearly. Almost everyone on the stage realized what had happened to the usually calm Young Manor Master at that moment.

'"What's his name" Xu Han asked again, but his voice trembled and his tone was extremely dry, as if he was afraid and looking forward to something at the same time.

The youth was very curious why Xu Han would ask such an irrelevant question, but when he thought of his sister who was still in the hands of the villain, he could not help but say in a low voice, "My brother cried…"

"Liu Sheng."

Bang!

With a crisp sound, the teacup in Xu Han's hand suddenly fell to the ground.

The cup and tile shattered, and the tea splashed all over the ground.

"Then where is the residence of the Gu Clan's Young Master?" Then, Xu Han's cold voice sounded.

Hearing this, Ye Hongjian was stunned. There were many mistakes in Liu Xiao's words. She originally wanted to interrogate him, but Xu Han's words seemed to mean that he was going to take someone. She was shocked and looked at Xu Han, about to say something to stop him.

But at this moment, Xu Han's expression was abnormally cold. There was even a faint gleam of blood in his eyes. His appearance made Ye Hongjian swallow the words that had reached her mouth.

However, the youth was delighted and hurriedly said, "It's just west of the city."

"Alright!" At that moment, sword intent surged out from Xu Han's body.

"Today, I will destroy his Gu Clan!"
