This Hou suddenly took action, which made the guards next to him not have time to react, but even if they reacted, they had no intention of going up to stop him.

Huang Xiao didn't expect the other party to suddenly attack him, but he also reacted in an instant, jumped back suddenly, and then retreated three feet away.

However, when Huang Xiao retreated, the figure of Master Hou followed him like a ghost.

Huang Xiao had no choice but to slap out with a palm, and only heard a "bang" sound, and then his body was knocked out.

Huang Xiao's body turned over and landed on the ground, and his body staggered back five steps before he stood still.

On the other hand, the Hou stood there without retreating at all.

Huang Xiao's face changed drastically. He knew that the skills of the Hou in front of him were not comparable to those of him. His strength was enough to kill him with one palm. However, although the palm force just now was strong, he still removed the palm force and did not suffer any damage.

Zhao Yuankan thought to himself that he couldn't help but shout: "There is an assassin!"

However, he forgot that this was not the Great Song Palace, but the Khitan Palace. When he shouted, even the guards a few steps away were not moving, as if nothing had happened here.

Zhao Yuankan's face was very anxious. He didn't expect that someone would attack Huang Xiao in this palace, and these guards were indifferent. Could it be that this was instructed by Yelu Longxu? Otherwise, who could kill people so blatantly in the palace, and the one who killed a foreign envoy was still a foreign envoy.

However, Lord Wu's face was calm, and he couldn't help but whisper: "Your Highness, don't worry, Lord Huang is safe."

Zhao Yuankan naturally saw that Huang Xiao was not injured when he appeared, but he also knew that Huang Xiao was probably not the opponent of Master Hou in front of him. If he went on, Huang Xiao would definitely not be the opponent. Will he be fine then?

However, when he saw Lord Wu wink at him, he also came back to his senses.

After all, this is the palace. If the other party really wants to kill Huang Xiao, he wouldn't choose this place, right? Therefore, he was less worried, but Huang Xiao's situation still shocked him.

After glanced at Huang Xiao not far away, the Hou said lightly: "Is the dignified 'Sage Capture Lord' only so much strength?"

Huang Xiao didn't know what this person meant. Judging from his move just now, he didn't mean to want his own life. Otherwise, with his strength, he would definitely not be able to escape death.

"Seniors have unfathomable skills, but younger generations are not as good as those of them." Huang Xiao bowed and bowed.

The level of martial arts is not different from national boundaries, and it is certain that the person in front of him is higher than his own. Huang Xiao naturally did not dare to collide, so he saluted respectfully.

Then Mr. Hou just stared at Huang Xiao for a while, and then walked away.

After seeing that Master Hou left, Zhao Yuankan hurried to Huang Xiao and asked, "Mr. Huang, how are your injuries?"

"Thank you for your concern, I was not injured." Huang Xiao said.

Zhao Yuankan tasted and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, it's good that Mr. Hou is just having a discussion with you, otherwise it will be troublesome."

"Can this be considered a competition?" Huang Xiao smiled helplessly in his heart.

After all, the competition is a matter of similar skills. The difference between me and Mr. Hou’s strength is too different, and it is not a competition at all. I can only say that Mr. Hou taught me a little lesson just now.

"Envoyee of the Song Dynasty, please follow our family out of the palace?" said the eunuch.

Huang Xiao and the other two naturally had no objection. They nodded and followed the eunuch to continue walking towards the palace gate.

After sending the three out of the palace, the eunuch went back.

"Your Highness, please get into the sedan chair!" said Lord Wu.

"No need, let's take a few steps and say as we walk." Zhao Yuankan shook his head and said, "Mr. Wu, do you know that Master Hou? He is so weird that he is wearing a mask."

Huang Xiao also looked at Lord Wu. The old man knew much more about the Khitan than the two of him.

"The old minister doesn't know this 'Silver Face Master', but I have heard of such a person." Lord Wu shook his head and said.

"Silver-faced Hou?" Zhao Yuankan nodded. "Yes, he is wearing a silver mask. This account is quite different. What is his origin?"

"I don't know who the old minister's specific surname is. It seems that the Khitan people don't know either. They just call it according to this title." Lord Wu said, "'Silver-faced Housing Master' is a mysterious master who suddenly appeared in the Khitan. The Khitan's "Princess Longli" suddenly got married in a low-key manner, and the prince-consort is the "Silver-faced Housing Master". Of course, the position of this marquis was also added when getting married. Therefore, only a few people from the Khitan royal family know the origin of this 'Silver-faced Housing Master'."

"'Princess Longli'? Was it Princess Yelu Longli, who was known as the number one beauty of the Khitan back then?" Zhao Yuankan asked, "It turns out that this Princess Longli finally married the 'Cover Hou'. It is said that many people were crazy about Princess Longli back then."

"That's right, but that happened decades ago. Not many people know about Princess Longli's low-key marriage. Later, this princess and Mr. Hou almost never appeared in front of everyone. Over time, everyone would almost forget that there was such a person." said Mr. Wu.

"Princess Longli, I have heard of it. She should be the half-sister of the current Khitan Emperor Yelu Longxu?" Huang Xiao asked.

"That's right, Yelu Longxu is only in his twenties and less than thirty years old this year. Princess Longli should be more than ten years older than Yelu Longxu and about forty years old. Therefore, it can be guessed that this "Silver-faced Hou" should be around forty years old, and there will be no big difference." said Mr. Wu.

Huang Xiao nodded, and he agreed with Lord Wu's inference. After all, he was a princess, so he naturally chose the best, so he must be the same age as the princess. However, with such skills at the age of about forty, Huang Xiao can only say that his talent is amazing.

In the fight just now, Huang Xiao knew that he had no chance at all. Only masters in the peerless realm could give him such a sense of powerlessness. Otherwise, even if he was a top-level master, he could at least have a few moves? If it were those masters who had just stepped into the top-level master, perhaps he could still fight one.

"There was a rumor that the reason why Mr. Hou was wearing a mask was because he was disfigured." said Lord Wu.

"These rumors are unreliable." Zhao Yuankan said.

"Indeed, this is also some speculations from people in the Khitan country. They cannot be taken seriously. If they are disfigured, the princess may not look down on it." Lord Wu also smiled.

"Maybe it is really possible to be disfigured?" Huang Xiao said.

"No matter whether it is, it's good that he didn't do anything to us." Zhao Yuankan said.

Huang Xiao and Lord Wu also had a deep impression of Zhao Yuankan's words. This time, I met by chance, probably because he was a young "Sage Capture" that made the other party feel curious and taught him a lesson.

The next negotiations between the two countries will definitely have nothing to do with this Mr. Hou, so the three of them will not care.

While speaking, the three of them walked towards the "Enterprise Mansion" along the straight street in front of the palace. The Song Dynasty and the guards dispersed one after another to protect the three of them.

When Huang Xiao and the other two left the palace, the "Silver Face Master" entered the harem directly.

This harem is not something that foreign ministers can enter, especially men.

However, he was not stopped by anyone when he came in, and he stood in front of an exquisite courtyard.

"All have come, don't you come in yet?" I heard a woman's voice coming from the house in the yard.

"Mrs. My wife seems to have improved a lot again. She has deliberately concealed her breath and slowed down her pace. Unexpectedly, you will find out." "Silver-faced Hou" laughed and stepped into the courtyard with one foot, then she appeared at the door of the house and opened the door and entered.

There was only one woman in the house who looked about thirty years old. She wore a white palace outfit with black hair tied up and a golden hairpin was simply inserted on her head. However, her beauty was hard to see directly. This beauty was a kind of graceful and luxurious beauty, which lacked the youthful beauty of a girl and the mature beauty of a woman.

I saw her standing by the desk, holding a brush in her hand and outlining a landscape painting on a piece of rice paper.

"Silver-faced Hou Ye" walked to the woman and watched her painting carefully.

Half an hour later, the woman gently put down the brush in her hand after she wrote the picture in the lower left corner of the painting.

"How?" the woman breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the silver-faced Hou beside her, with a look of showing off.

"It looks good." "The Silver-faced Hou" smiled slightly, "But~~"

"But what?" the woman asked hurriedly.

"You painted characters with sensibility. It would be a bit insufficient to draw scenery. Moreover, you made mistakes in your paintings. It's a pleasing story to write down your name. Isn't this going to ruin people?" Mr. Yinmeng commented.

Hearing the comments of Mr. Yinmeng Hou, the woman's face, which was originally very satisfied, suddenly became gloomy and said, "I was wrong? What's wrong? I spent three days to draw this painting. If you can't tell me, today I will not finish it, so don't even think about climbing into bed at night!"

"You really feel good about yourself!" "Yinmian Hou Ye' shook his head, then reached out and pointed to a pine tree on a cliff in the painting and said, "Look at this pine tree, is it south? But the shape of this tree actually grows to the north. Isn't it wrong?" "Yinmian Hou Ye' pointed out the inappropriate things in the painting with confidence.

Generally speaking, the crown grows to the south because the south faces the sun and grows better, and the crown will be denser than the north. However, this painting is exactly the opposite, which is a common sense mistake.

"Is that?" the woman asked coldly, "You are still so self-righteous!"

"This is not self-righteousness, but you don't know how to be modest. Speaking of which, Yan's attainment in landscapes is higher than that of you, so you can ask her for advice. Although she is a junior, her knowledge is no matter how old or young. " "The 'Silver Hou' smiled, but after a while, his face changed slightly, and he lay on the table. He looked at the painting on the table carefully, and his face was almost stuck to the drawing paper. (To be continued)
