Xiao Xuan was already frightened, fearing that Xu Zizhen would kill him if he got upset. Besides, he was not a member of the main line of the Xiao family, so he didn't have so many scruples. In order to save his life, he told everything he knew.
However, the Xiao family has been operating in Xixia for many years and has a deep foundation and extensive connections. It is impossible to uproot them all at once. They can only operate slowly and secretly. Of course, Xu Zizhen is too lazy to participate in these matters and has no ability to participate. He just wants to take advantage of this
Just take the opportunity to collect this information and then leave it to Xia Chongzong to solve it.
The conversation ended quickly. Both parties got what they wanted. Xu Zizhen knew a lot about the Xiao family, and Xiao Xuan saved his life. As for the eunuch, Eunuch Xie, Xu Zizhen ignored him. He never had a good impression of the eunuch.
, and this Eunuch Xie can only be regarded as a dog of the Xiao family at most, and even if he knows something, he doesn't know much.
Xu Zizhen kept this information in mind, stood up and was about to leave, when he saw Jin Yuxi running from a distance, shouting breathlessly: "Brother Xu, I'm calling you... I'm calling you over, someone is coming from Xixia."
"Oh? Is it finally here?" Xu Zizhen didn't find it strange at all. When he tipped off the supervisor Luo Eunuch, he expected that there would be some movement in the next two days.
Jin Yuxi ran forward, holding her knees with her hands and panting, staring into the cell with her eyes wide open.
Xu Zizhen knew what he was looking at and smiled: "Don't worry, I didn't kill him."
Jin Yuxi breathed a sigh of relief: "My lord is afraid that you might kill him on impulse."
"I have sense." Xu Zizhen was a little embarrassed when he said this, because he really wanted to kill people when he came. As soon as he finished speaking, another thought suddenly came to his mind, and he turned around and said to Xiao Xuan, "Master Xiao
, I have a small favor to ask you to do, I wonder if you are willing to do it?"
Xiao Xuan was stunned: "Ah? Help...what to help?"
…
When Xu Zizhen returned to the house, Wen Chengyan was already waiting. Besides him, there were a few people in the hall. Meng Du, the planting master, was there, and there was a Xixia man with his hands in his sleeves, looking at his nose and heart.
Sitting there, he turned a blind eye to Xu Zizhen's entry.
"Sir, Mr. Xiaozhong, Mr. Meng, I'm here." Xu Zizhen came in and said hello, then glanced at the Xixia man, "Is this person here to declare a challenge? Are you ready to continue the fight?"
The Xixia man slowly raised his head, without any expression on his face, and said calmly: "I am just an envoy. I am here to invite Lord Wen to discuss the return of my Daxia prisoners of war."
Xu Zizhen curled his lips and muttered: "Let's just negotiate. Are you so angry after talking so much?"
Wen Chengyan waved his hand, and Xu Zizhen stepped aside knowingly, only to hear the seed master say to the envoy: "In that case, I'll see you tomorrow."
The envoy stood up and bowed his hands in salute: "Yes, I take my leave."
Xu Zizhen winked at Zhongshizhong without leaving any trace, and spoke to the envoy with his lips. Zhongshizhong was stunned for a moment, but he soon understood, coughed lightly and said: "Zizhen, you send him off for me.
Get out of seclusion.”
"Yes!" Xu Zizhen accepted the order and accompanied the envoy out of the palace. A carriage was waiting outside the door. He was not polite and jumped on first.
The carriage rumbled, and Xu Zizhen suddenly grinned at the envoy: "Brother Yu, why are you here this time? How is your princess?"
The envoy turned out to be an old acquaintance of Xu Zizhen, Yu Qi, a trusted guard around Chongzong. Xu Zizhen had thought that Chongzong would send someone to contact him, but he didn't expect it would be him. Yu Qi was very skilled and had been responsible for protecting Li Luoyan.
An Wei, did you mean to send him here to say that Li Luoyan is not in danger?
A smile also appeared on Yu Qi's face, he cupped his hands to Xu Zizhen and said, "It's been a long time, Mr. Xu. The princess now has someone to protect her, so she no longer needs to accompany me."
Is there anyone else? Xu Zizhen was stunned for a moment, but soon thought that the Yun family might be involved. Yun Shanglan once talked about the prestige of the Yun family. Now that Li Luoyan has returned to the palace, the Yun family, as her natal family, will definitely come back to the world.
, as a legendary family in Xixia, there should be no problem if they take action.
Xu Zizhen asked: "Who are you here for this negotiation?"
Yu Qi said: "The second prince Li Renxiao and the Minister of War Xiao Ye." He paused and added, "Xiao Ye is the father of Xiao Xuan."
Xu Zizhen has no interest in this Xiao. Since he is here to negotiate, it is certain that someone from the Xiao family is coming. Xiao Xuan was arrested, and it is normal for his father to come. His attention is now on the second prince. Chongzong is very shrewd.
, this is definitely not that simple when someone comes to negotiate.
"The second prince." Xu Zizhen muttered in a low voice without asking any more questions. Yu Qi was a close confidant of Chongzong. Since he was sent to follow him, it indirectly explained the status of the second prince.
Yu Qi opened the curtains and looked around, and suddenly said to Xu Zizhen in a low voice: "Mr. Xu, the emperor asked me to give you a message." He leaned into Xu Zizhen's ear and said, "The emperor said, you did a great job this time.
, but there has been chaos in the palace recently, and he really cannot be distracted, so I can only thank you properly when I see you in the future."
Xu Zizhen laughed and said: "Why do I think it's such a confidential matter, and you're so polite..." Just in the middle of his words, he suddenly froze, "Chaos? What's the chaos? Is there something going on in Sanjue Hall?"
Yu Qi shook his head and looked a little solemn: "The Jin army moved quickly and destroyed most of the Liao Kingdom. In the middle of last month, the prince passed away in sorrow and anger."
Xu Zizhen was puzzled: "Why are you sons so worried and angry when the Liao Kingdom was destroyed?"
Yu Qi said: "The eldest son's biological mother's name is Yelu Nanxian, and she is Princess Cheng'an of Daliao."
Now Xu Zizhen understood. After thinking about it, he understood Chongzong's difficulty. The prince would take over the throne from him in the future. Since Xixia still submitted to the Liao Dynasty, he could only be called the prince instead of the prince. However, his status remained unchanged.
Yes, Queen Xiao doesn't know if she has a son. If she does, now is the best time to seize the throne.
Xu Zizhen was silent, thinking quickly in his mind. After a while, he pulled Yu Qi and whispered something into his ear. Yu Qi's face gradually became surprised. When Xu Zizhen finished speaking, he still hadn't recovered.
"Brother Yu, I don't want any glory or wealth, but I have to help Luo'er escape from danger. Whether this can happen or not depends on this time."
Yu Qi took a deep breath and took a deep look at Xu Zizhen: "Mr. Xu, you are now famous far and wide, I'm afraid..."
Xu Zizhen chuckled: "Don't worry, it's just acting. This job is very simple."
Yu Qi said no more, nodded and said: "In that case, I will obey the master's instructions."
The carriage was approaching the city gate. Xu Zizhen opened the curtain and was about to get out of the car. When he turned around, he said sternly: "Only you and I know this, so remember it!"
