Xiao Xuan was already frightened, fearing that Xu Zizhen would kill him if he got upset, and besides, he was not a member of the main line of the Xiao family, so he didn't have so many scruples, so he told everything he knew in order to save his life.

However, the Xiao family has been operating in Xixia for many years, with a deep foundation and extensive contacts. It is impossible to uproot them all at once, so they can only operate slowly in secret. Of course, Xu Zizhen is too lazy to participate in these matters and has no ability to participate. Chance to collect this information, and then throw it to Xia Chongzong to solve it.

The conversation ended quickly, and 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 didn't pay attention to it. He has 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, even if he knows everything, he won't know too much.

Xu Zizhen kept these messages in his heart, got up and was about to leave, but saw Jin Yuxi running from a distance, panting and shouting: "Brother Xu, my lord is calling you... telling you to come over, Xixia is here."

"Oh? Is it finally here?" Xu Zizhen didn't find it strange at all. When he revealed the wind to Eunuch Luo, the supervisor, he expected that there would be some movement in the past two days.

Jin Yuxi ran up to him, panting non-stop while propping his hands on his knees, looking into the cell with bony eyes.

Xu Zizhen knew what he was looking at, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I didn't kill him."

Jin Yuxi breathed a sigh of relief: "My lord is afraid that you will kill him on impulse."

"I have a sense of proportion." Xu Zizhen was also a little embarrassed when he said this, because he really wanted to kill someone when he came. Just after he finished speaking, another thought suddenly popped up in his mind, and he turned around and said to Xiao Xuan, "Master Xiao , I still have a small favor to ask you to help, I wonder if you will agree?"

Xiao Xuan was taken aback for a moment: "Ah? Help...help what?"

……

When Xu Zizhen returned to the mansion, Wen Chengyan was already waiting. Besides him, there were several other people in the hall. Mengdu, the planter, was there, and there was another Xixia man, with his hands in his sleeves, watching his nose, nose, nose, and heart. Sitting, turning a blind eye to Xu Zizhen's coming in.

"My lord, Mr. Xiaozhong, Mr. Meng, I'm here." Xu Zizhen entered the door and greeted him in a circle, then glanced at the Xixia man, "Is this person here to fight? Are you going to continue the fight?"

The Xixia man slowly raised his head, without any expression on his face, and said indifferently: "I am just a mere envoy, and I am here to ask Mr. Wen to discuss the return of my Great Xia prisoners of war."

Xu Zizhen curled his lips, and muttered: "Negotiations are negotiations. Talking about so much is so sour."

Wen Chengyan waved his hand, Xu Zizhen retreated knowingly, only to hear Zhong Zhong say to the envoy: "If that's the case, then see you tomorrow."

The envoy stood up and bowed his hands in salute: "Yes, I will take my leave."

Xu Zizhen winked at Zhong Zhong without a trace, and made a gesture at the envoy with his mouth. Teacher Zhong was taken aback for a moment, but he soon understood, and coughed lightly: "Zizhen, you send him off for the commander-in-chief." Exit."

"Yes!" Xu Zizhen took the order and accompanied the envoy out of the mansion gate. A carriage was already waiting outside the gate. He was not polite and jumped on it first.

As the carriage rattled, Xu Zizhen suddenly grinned at the envoy: "Brother Yu, why are you here this time? Is your princess okay?"

The envoy was actually Xu Zizhen's old acquaintance, Chongzong's trusted bodyguard Yu Qi, Xu Zizhen had thought that Chongzong would send someone to meet him, but he didn't expect it to be him, Yu Qi was very skilled and was always in charge of protecting Li Luoyan. An Wei, does it mean that Li Luoyan is not in danger by sending him here?

There was also a smile on Yu Qi's face, he cupped his hands at Xu Zizhen and said, "Young Master Xu has not been seen for a long time, and the princess is now protected by an expert, so she no longer needs to accompany her."

Another expert?Xu Zizhen was stunned for a moment, but soon realized that the Yun family might be on the move. Yun Shanglan once mentioned the history of the Yun family's prestige, and now that Li Luoyan returned to the palace, the Yun family, as her natal family, would definitely come back out of the rivers and lakes, as the legend of Xixia The family, with them taking action, there shouldn't be any problem.

Xu Zizhen asked: "Who are you here for this negotiation?"

Yu Qi said: "Second Prince Li Renxiao and Minister of War Xiao Ye." He paused and added, "Xiao Ye is Xiao Xuan's father."

Xu Zizhen has no interest in this Xiao. Since he is here to negotiate, it is certain that someone from the Xiao family will come. It is normal for his father to come if Xiao Xuan is arrested. He is now focusing on the second prince. Chongzong is very shrewd. , it must not be that simple to be sent to negotiate at this time.

"Second prince." Xu Zizhen said in a low voice, without further questioning, Yu Qi was Chongzong's confidant, since he was sent to follow, it indirectly explained the status of the second prince.

Yu Qi opened the curtain and looked around, and suddenly said to Xu Zizhen in a low voice: "Young master Xu, the emperor asked me to bring you a message." Then he leaned into Xu Zizhen's ear, "The emperor said, you did a good job this time. , but the recent chaos in the palace, he really can't be distracted, so he can only thank you when he sees you again."

Xu Zizhen laughed and said, "I thought it was a confidential matter, and I'm so polite..." Just halfway through speaking, he was taken aback suddenly, "Chaos? What's the mess? Is San Jue Tang making trouble?"

Yu Qi shook his head, with a serious expression on his face: "The troops of the Jin Kingdom moved quickly and destroyed most of the Liao Kingdom. In the middle of last month, the crown prince died in sorrow and anger."

Xu Zizhen was puzzled: "Why are you worried and angry when the Liao Kingdom is destroyed?"

Yu Qi said: "The son's birth mother's name is Yelu Nanxian, and she is Princess Cheng'an of Daliao."

Now Xu Zizhen understands, and after thinking about it, he understands Chongzong's difficulties better. The son will take over his throne in the future. Since Xixia is still subject to Daliao, he can only be called the son instead of the prince, but his status remains unchanged. Yes, Empress 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, pondering quickly in his mind, a moment later La Taiqi whispered something in his ear, Yu Qi's face gradually became surprised, and he still hadn't recovered after Xu Zizhen finished speaking.

"Brother Yu, I don't want any glory and wealth, but I have to help Luo'er get out of danger. Whether this can be done or not depends on this time."

Only then did Yu Qi heave a sigh of relief, and took a deep look at Xu Zizhen: "Mr. Xu, your reputation is far and wide now, I'm afraid it's..."

Xu Zizhen chuckled: "Don't worry, isn't it just acting, this job is very simple."

Yu Qi didn't say any more, nodded and said: "Since that's the case, I will obey the young master's orders."

The carriage was already approaching the city gate, and Xu Zizhen was about to get out of the carriage as soon as he lifted the curtain. Before turning around, he said solemnly: "Only you and I know about this, remember it!"
