"It's not a matter of the world, it's considered to be from the court." Du Ge said.

"Court?" Huang Xiao asked whispered, "It won't be related to Huang Qitao again, right?"

Du Ge shook his head and said, "A few days ago, the Khitan sent an envoy to Kaifeng to discuss the repairs between the two countries. However, not long after the Khitan envoy entered the territory of the Song Dynasty, their group was intercepted and killed, and none of them survived. This incident shocked the government and the public, especially the Khitan side, and even asked for the murderer. If a satisfactory reply was not received, the two countries might launch another war."

"Did you find out who did it?" Huang Xiao asked with a frown.

This matter is indeed a huge impact. Once it is not handled properly, the two countries will definitely start another war, especially this time the Khitan took the blame.

In the war against the Khitan, there were fewer victories and more defeats, so the Song Dynasty did not want to start a war easily.

"I don't know yet, so for this matter, we sent people to investigate. Huang Qitao also gave orders to the constables of the "Six Gates" to search for the murderers with all their might. It is precisely because of this that a lot of constables were transferred from other places to strengthen their personnel." Du Ge said.

After Du Ge finished speaking, seeing that Huang Xiao did not speak for a moment, he couldn't help but add: "Brother Huang, you are back now. I'm afraid Huang Qitao will find you soon. You have to be mentally prepared yourself. Don't let him push this task on your head. This matter is thankless and not that simple."

"I know this." Huang Xiao nodded and said.

Huang Xiao knew about this. Whether it was the people from the Song Dynasty who killed the Khitan envoys, or the people from the Khitan, or perhaps someone else, his purpose was very obvious, that was to provoke war between the two countries. As long as the war between the two countries was together, there would be more people taking the opportunity to take advantage of the situation, and it would be easier to achieve some goals.

So, this matter is definitely not that simple. There are probably many people involved, and each one is not simple.

"Are there any movements in the court?" Huang Xiao asked.

"I heard a little bit. I don't know if it's true or false." Du Ge said.

"What do you mean?" Huang Xiao asked.

"I heard that some ministers suggested that the third prince go to Khitan and marry the Khitan princess to show the sincerity of the Song Dynasty." Du Ge said.

"The Third Prince Zhao Yuankan?" Huang Xiao was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "How is this possible? The position of the prince is almost his. It is impossible to send him over. It would be possible to be another prince."

In fact, Zhao Yuankan, Huang Xiao met in the "Shenxianju". At that time, it was mentioned by Zheng Zhiyi, the captain of the "Xuanmen" to himself. However, what he mentioned to him at that time was that Zhao Yuankan was the crown prince, but in fact, Zhao Yuankan was not actually made the crown prince.

However, Zheng Zhiyi's words are actually not far from the facts. Zhao Guangyi's eldest son went crazy and his second son died suddenly, while Zhao Yuankan was the third son. In addition, he is now very favored by Zhao Guangyi, so he is basically the candidate for the crown prince.

So, Huang Xiao thought this was impossible, so how could the prince go to the enemy country? Isn’t that a sheep enters the tiger’s mouth?

"So I think this matter is false," Du Ge said, "but there is no other statement in the court except for the news about this matter."

Huang Xiao nodded and asked Du Ge to go ahead first

Then he sat alone in the study and thought for a while but couldn't figure out anything.

His purpose in the study was naturally to wait for Huang Qitao to send someone to find him. Because in his opinion, Huang Qitao would definitely convene several "Sages" to discuss this matter together.

However, what surprised Huang Xiao was that Huang Qitao did not send anyone, but the palace sent someone to summon him.

"Princess? Who is it?" Huang Xiao asked an old eunuch standing in front of him.

"Your Highness the Third Princess." The eunuch replied.

Huang Xiao nodded. He didn't expect Zhao Yunhui to send someone to find him. It seemed that it was not a private matter. If it was a private matter, he would definitely not send someone so directly.

But no matter what it was, since Zhao Yunhui was looking for him, he naturally would not hesitate. So he hurried into the palace with the eunuch.

When Huang Xiao was taken to a hall room, he found Zhao Xiner and Zhao Yunhui talking together.

Seeing Huang Xiaohou, Zhao Xiner's beautiful eyes lit up, and a hint of joy flashed in Zhao Yunhui's eyes.

"Mr. Huang, please sit down quickly." Zhao Yunhui said hurriedly.

Zhao Xiner didn't say anything when she looked at Huang Xiao, but Huang Xiao could naturally feel her affection.

"Princess Xie, I wonder why the princess called the lower lord to come?" Huang Xiao asked.

He, the "Sage Capture" is not only a person in the martial arts world, but also an official in the court. It is not wrong to claim to be a subordinate official.

"Can't you call you here if you're fine? Xin'er, do you think so?" Zhao Yunhui smiled slightly.

"Sister, don't make fun of me." Zhao Xiner said with a slightly red face.

Huang Xiao just smiled awkwardly, and he didn't dare to answer.

However, he knew that Zhao Yunhui's words were just a joke. If she had nothing to do, she would naturally not call herself over.

"Okay, I won't say that anymore. I'll come to Mr. Huang this time. Of course, I have something important to ask you to discuss with you." Zhao Yunhui smiled slightly and said with a serious expression.

When Zhao Yunhui finished speaking, she heard a burst of hearty laughter outside the door.

In fact, Huang Xiao already knew that someone was walking towards this place, and his skills were average. Thinking about it, he should be someone in the palace, so he didn't care much.

When this man walked in, a hint of suddenness appeared on Huang Xiao's face. It turned out to be him.

The visitor is Zhao Yuankan, the current third prince.

"Third brother, my little sister has helped you invite someone. You can do other things by yourself." After seeing this person come in, Zhao Yunhui couldn't help but stand up and smile.

"Thank you, third sister, fourth sister." Zhao Yuankan bowed.

"Xin'er, let's go down first?" Zhao Yunhui looked at Zhao Xiner and asked.

Zhao Xiner nodded and called Huang Xiao over today, mainly because of Zhao Yuankan. They knew something about what Zhao Yuankan wanted to say to Huang Xiao. However, these are things between their men, so it is not easy for women to be here.

"Brother Huang, come to see me later!" Zhao Xiner passed by Huang Xiao, and said in a voice.

Hearing Zhao Xiner's voice transmission, Huang Xiao gave her a look and signaled to know.

After seeing the two girls go out, Huang Xiao stood up and saluted Zhao Yuankan and said, "I have met His Highness the Third Prince."

"Mr. Huang doesn't have to be too polite. There is only the two of us here, so there is no need to be so polite." Zhao Yuankan signaled Huang Xiao to sit down and said.

"Don't you know what to order when His Highness comes to find a low position?" Huang Xiao asked.

Speaking of which, he had no friendship with Zhao Yuankan. He suddenly came to find him today, which was indeed a bit surprising.

I originally thought that Zhao Yunhui and Zhao Xiner had something to do, but I didn't expect that they came to find her for him.

"I am indeed having something to discuss with Lord Huang," said Zhao Yuankan.

Huang Xiao is a bit special in his identity. He is the "Six Gates" of the "Saint of the Catcher". Zhao Yuankan no longer puts on the airs of a prince and calls him "me".

"Your Highness will give you the order." Huang Xiao said.

"I think Lord Huang should also know that the Khitan envoy was attacked, right?" Zhao Yuankan asked.

"Yes, I have heard of this matter." Huang Xiao nodded and said.

Zhao Yuankan suddenly mentioned this matter, and a thought flashed through Huang Xiao's mind.

It was the thing Du Ge told him at that time, about the rumors in the court. Could it be that the court really planned to let the third prince go to the Khitan?

But even if he is going to Khitan, what should he do?

Although he had many thoughts in his heart, he was all his own guess. Huang Xiao looked at Zhao Yuankan and waited for his next sentence.

"For this matter, the ministers in the court have quarreled and did not come up with a suitable solution. The father is also worried about it. This matter can be big or small. If the Khitan has not let go, then this matter is enough to trigger another battle between the two countries." Zhao Yuankan sighed, "As a prince, we should naturally share the worries of the father. Therefore, this time I recommend myself to the father and prepare to send a mission to the Khitan to promote the two countries to repair the matters."

"Your Highness, are you going in person?" Even though Huang Xiao had already guessed in his heart, he still asked in surprise.

After all, such a thing is not to mention a prince who is almost an internally determined one, even other princes are not willing to take this risk.

After all, the relationship between the Song Dynasty and the Khitan was not very good. The two countries have always been in a state of hostility, and border wars are common.

"That's right, I can only show my sincerity in the Song Dynasty." Zhao Yuankan said.

"There are many ways to express sincerity, and there is no need for Your Highness to take risks." Huang Xiao did not agree with his approach, after all, it was too dangerous for him to go through this way.

"I'm not hiding it with Lord Huang, although I seem to be glorious, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at me in secret, just want to catch some of my handles or make mistakes. This time, I think it's worth taking this risk." Zhao Yuankan said.

"Yeah?" Huang Xiao was slightly shocked.

He looked at Zhao Yuankan in surprise. What does this Zhao Yuankan mean?

These words should not be told to myself. I have only met him once, that is, I have only seen them. These words should have been almost said to my confidant, and it seems a bit inappropriate to say to me.

Huang Xiao understood what Zhao Yuankan said, don’t say that he is not the crown prince now, even if he is the crown prince, he still has many brothers or other royal relatives.

Who is not moved by the position of emperor?

Therefore, he probably felt that his position was still unstable.

If he risked his life to the Khitan and could calm the matter down, the ministers in the court would probably look at him with admiration. Some neutral ministers would choose to support him, so that his status would be much more stable.

I have to say that Huang Xiao was a little impressed by Zhao Yuankan’s decision, although this decision was still inappropriate in his opinion. (To be continued)
