Chapter 540 News from Kyoto
Shiha City Lord's Mansion
Xue Bosi brought two maids and hurried to Xue Bo's new courtyard and rushed into his study, "Brother, I finally found you!"
Xue Boxin and his brother Xue Botao, who were talking, looked up at the same time when they heard Xue Bosi rushing in, and asked in surprise, "What's wrong, little sister?"
She burst into tears and said coquettishly, "Big brother, second brother, I was bullied today."
Xue Boxin's face was cold, his brows knitted, and he asked doubtfully, "Little sister, how could anyone dare to bully you? Didn't we assign more than 20 guards to you today? Didn't they go?"
Xue Botao also said, "Little sister, who dares to bully you in Shiha City? Don't you want to live?"
Xue Bosi choked up and said, "It was... a woman. Your twenty-odd guards couldn't beat her. They were all injured."
When Xue Botao heard this, an obscene smile suddenly appeared on his face, "What? It's a woman? Little sister! When did our Shiha city have such a powerful woman? How come I didn't know about it?" He also didn't believe that his sister would suffer any loss in Shiha city.
"Second brother, you don't care about me at all. You are still thinking about that woman at this time." Xue Bosi glared at her second brother Xue Botao and said while stamping her feet.
"Little sister, isn't this just caring about you? Did you tell your second brother that the girl is beautiful?"
The maid next to her quickly said, "That woman is so beautiful, but too arrogant. She is very disrespectful to our young lady. Second Master, you should teach her a lesson for the young lady." The maid thought she was speaking for the young lady and pleasing the second young master. After she finished speaking, she did not forget to glance at Xue Bosi.
When Xue Botao heard this, his eyes shone with wantonness, "Beauty! Leave her to me, your son. Once I conquer her, you can rub her as you please."
Xue Bosi was particularly angry when she heard the maid's words. She would not allow other women to be prettier than herself. She glared at the maid fiercely and shouted at Xue Botao, "No, second brother, I will cut her face tonight, and then send her to the brothel and then to the military camp. Let's see how she can still be so arrogant."
"Little sister, you have eliminated all the beauties in Shiha City. Now a beauty has finally appeared. Let me enjoy her for now. When I don't want her anymore, I will let you deal with her."
Xue Bosi's eyes showed cruelty, and he said almost crazily, "No! I will make her suffer a fate worse than death tonight. Big brother! Give me some masters right now."
These two siblings talk about killing others without restraint, just like cutting vegetables.
Xue Boxin had no intention of listening to what his second brother and younger sister were talking about. He was thinking about the important things that happened to his father and grandfather in Kyoto.
Two days have passed, and he still hasn't received any news. Did he take action or not? His father has a magic eagle with him, and the speed of the magic eagle delivering messages is very fast. He has a bad feeling. He was just discussing this with Xue Botao, and he plans to go to his second uncle to ask about it later.
Xue Boxin heard his sister calling him and raised his head from his thoughts. "Little sister, what did you say?"
"Brother, what's wrong with you? You didn't even listen to me." Xue Bosi said a little angrily.
"Oh, big brother is thinking..." He glanced at the maid in the room and changed his words, "I am thinking. Where did this woman come from?
How to deal with my little sister?"
Before he could finish his words, a man in black rushed in, "Little General..." He suddenly saw Xue Bosi and her maid, so he stopped what he was about to say.
Xue Bosi knew that they had something important to say, so he said to her elder brother with understanding: "Brother, you guys go ahead and talk.
Go back to your own courtyard first, and remember to find a few experts for me later." After saying that, he left the study with two maids.
Xue Boxin looked at the man in black and said coldly, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
"Major General, Second Young Master, news from Kyoto!" As he said this, he handed a thin bamboo tube that he was holding tightly in his hand to Xue Boxin.
When Xue Boxin heard the words of the man in black, he stood up and snatched the bamboo tube.
He picked it up and looked at it, "Why is there blood on this bamboo tube?" Xue Botao also stood up and walked to his side, staring at the bamboo tube in his hand.
"Major General, this is the blood of the Divine Eagle. The Divine Eagle's leg is injured."
"The Divine Condor was injured? How was it injured?" He paused, a bad feeling came over him, and his eyes started twitching.
"It was an arrow wound. I saw that the Divine Eagle was not flying fast when it came back." The man in black said this and left the study.
Xue Boxin quickly pulled out the note from the small bamboo tube, which was also stained with blood.
Xue Boxin quickly opened the note and stared at it. There was only one sentence on it and he wished he could see through it.
As he watched, his eyes turned red and his hands trembled. The words "Xin'er, we lost. Take them to your second uncle's place as soon as possible" echoed in his mind.
Xue Botao's eyes were glued to the note, and he murmured, "How could it be? How could it be? Brother, brother, is this true?"
Xue Boxin carefully read the words on the note and confirmed that it was indeed written by his father. Maybe the situation was urgent at the time, so his father only wrote a few words. No wonder the Divine Condor was also injured.
After analyzing this, he calmed himself down and said to Xue Botao, "Second brother, this is father's handwriting. It seems that father and grandfather have really failed. Go to mother quickly and tell her quietly... I'm going to go to my second uncle's place."
Xue Botao was stunned when he heard this. Xue Boxin patted him on the shoulder and said, "Second brother, now is not the time to be stunned. We have to leave Shiha City quickly."
Xue Botao came to his senses after hearing what his elder brother said. "Brother, how could this happen? Didn't grandfather and the others say they were fully prepared? They would definitely not fail?"
"Now is not the time to talk about this. Father and his men have failed. This time, grandfather, father, uncle, and eldest cousin may all be executed. Fortunately, we are not in Kyoto. We must prepare quickly. Once General Su and his men get the news from Kyoto, we may not be able to escape."
"You're right, brother. We can't panic now. I'll go to mother." Xue Botao hurriedly left the study.
Xue Boxin also hurriedly left the study and walked out of the mansion.
About a quarter of an hour later, Xue Boxin appeared at the door of Xue Congying's mansion in the west of the city.
He entered Xue Congying's mansion and anxiously went straight to Xue Congying's study. The guard guarding the study door saw that it was Xue Boxin, and quickly saluted, saying "Greetings, young general" and let him in.
As soon as Xue Boxin stepped into the study, he called out to Xue Congying in front of the desk in a trembling voice: "Second Uncle... Second Uncle..."
Xue Congying frowned when he saw him. "Boxin, what's wrong with you? Why are you here at this time? Is there something urgent?"
"Second uncle, I received a letter from my father." Xue Boxin said anxiously with red eyes.
