Chapter 1534 Reception of Envoys

Without waiting for their reaction, Ye Zifen walked in with her two sisters and greeted them by bowing.

Ye Zifen smiled and bowed to the ladies, saying, "Hello, ladies."

Her voice is clear and pleasant, which makes people feel good about her.

The two younger sisters also followed suit and saluted. Their manners were so elegant and graceful that people could not help but admire them.

The ladies all stood up to return the greeting, with a hint of surprise in their eyes.

The appearance of the Princess of Fuxia was really unexpected to them, but they quickly regained their composure.

Ye Zifen smiled slightly and replied, "My two sisters and I went to the palace to attend a dinner today, so we came here to rest for a while."

Another lady said, "Princess, county lady, please come in. The princess and the two young ladies are so charming!"

Ye Zifen smiled modestly and said, "Thank you madam for your compliments. This is the first time for my sister and I to attend a palace banquet. I hope you ladies will take good care of us."

After everyone exchanged greetings, Ye Zifen took her two sisters to sit aside.

At this time, several more ladies came in. When they saw Ye Zifen and others, they all showed surprised expressions.

Ye Zifen greeted them one by one with a smile, showing her gentle and friendly side.

During this process, Ye Zifen always maintained proper manners and a smile, which left a deep impression on people.

Time passed quickly like a white horse passing by, and in the blink of an eye, the sun set and night fell.

Everyone stood up and went to the banquet hall to attend the dinner.

Since all those present were family members from different families, the topic naturally revolved around matters between the children, and of course there were also some veiled discussions about marriage.

The two sisters Ye Zifen sat quietly by, listening carefully to everyone's conversation and keeping each family's intentions and reactions in mind.

During this time, several ladies looked at Ye Zifen with particularly eager eyes, but she deliberately ignored them.

After all, marriage is not something she can decide on her own, and those families that are interested in her often have incompetent sons.

With Ye Zifen's vision, she would naturally not choose such a husband.

When they arrived at the banquet hall, many people had already gathered inside, including many young and beautiful women.

After Ye Zifen and others greeted the people from the Hong family, they asked Ye Zifang to go find people of the same age to play with, while she and Ye Ziwei found their seats and sat down.

Their seats were very close to the front row with an excellent view, allowing them to clearly see everything that happened in the banquet hall.

There were many envious looks around.

Finally, the emperor arrived, and as he took his seat, the banquet officially began.

After the envoys from overseas entered the hall to pay their respects, they each found a seat and sat down. Coincidentally, the seats they chose were right opposite Ye Zifen.

At the banquet, the emperor and overseas envoys drank together and had a very harmonious conversation.

The foreign envoys savored the delicious food of Daxia and enjoyed a wonderful song and dance performance.

They spoke highly of Daxia's cuisine and culture, with endless praise.

At this time, the palace was bustling with people.

These overseas envoys from afar not only spoke the Daxia language fluently, but also due to cultural differences, they were not bound by too many etiquette norms and could move freely among the banquets.

At first, the officials of Daxia felt a little uncomfortable with this, but when they noticed that the emperor did not express dissatisfaction with this, they stopped talking and gradually began to have pleasant conversations with the foreign envoys.

Ye Zifen's side was indeed the most lively. After all, she was very familiar with both the other party and Ye Ziwei, and their relationship was closer, so the conversation was naturally more casual.

Then, the other party started to ask curiously: "Ye! I heard them call your sister the county lady, but isn't her name Ziwei? Why do people call her the county lady? And aren't you a county lady? How come you have become a princess now?"

Ye Zifen explained patiently, "My previous title of Fuxia County Lady and my current title of Fuxia Princess were both conferred by the emperor. The status of a princess is higher than that of a county lady. Ziwei was also conferred the title of county lady. Usually, women with these titles are either the emperor's daughters or his relatives. I was rewarded for my merits. Although the circumstances are different, the treatment is the same. Do you understand?"

The other party nodded thoughtfully, and then asked: "You have made a contribution, right? We are treated well in our own country because of your caravan, and we are grateful to you. So, does your contribution have anything to do with us?"

Ye Zifen thought for a moment and replied, "Maybe part of it."

She couldn't say that it was because she gave all her money to Da Xia!

The other party said "Oh" and was a little disappointed. It seemed that he also understood what Ye Zifen meant.

Ye Zifen comforted him: "Our relationship doesn't need these things. We really like each other, don't we?"

The other party became happy after hearing this.

As the banquet ended, the emperor personally led the overseas envoys to visit the imperial palace.

The envoys were amazed by the magnificent architecture and exquisite decorations of the imperial palace and praised its grandeur.

During this process, Ye Zifen was always by their side, warmly entertaining the visiting guests.

She actively participated in various activities and demonstrated an elegant and generous demeanor.

It was not until late at night that all the activities finally came to a successful conclusion.

Ye Zifen also returned to Princess Fuxia's Mansion with her two younger sisters.

The emperor then returned to the palace and invited them to a formal conversation the next day.

The formal meeting the next day was at the morning court session, but Ye Zifen did not attend.

But you can guess what they said.

During the talks, the overseas envoys gave a detailed introduction to the situation in their countries and clearly expressed their desire to establish friendly relations with Daxia.

They proposed a long-term exchange of goods and promised to help and support each other.

The emperor happily expressed that Daxia was very willing to establish friendly relations with overseas countries and jointly promote the development of both sides.

Of course, this kind of meeting has nothing to do with our female guest. Early in the morning, she came to Princess Fuxia's mansion accompanied by palace maids and eunuchs.

Because Ziwei is going to get married in three or four days, the entire Princess Fuxia's mansion is busy.

Ye Zifen has to personally entertain the other party.

Ye Zifen first took her to visit the Fuxia Princess Mansion.

Only then did the other party realize that Ye Zifen had so many relatives.

Ye Zifen led the female guest through many courtyards and came to a spacious garden.

The sunlight shines on the colorful flowers, creating a gorgeous scene.

The female guest couldn't help but exclaim: "Your house is so beautiful!"

Ye Zifen smiled and nodded: "Yes, I like this place very much."

They strolled along the winding path, admiring the beautiful scenery around them. The female guest asked curiously, "Did you plant these yourself?"

Ye Zifen shook her head slightly: "No, these are the fruits of the servants' careful care. It was like this before I came here."

Then, Ye Zifen led the female guest into a magnificent hall.

Precious porcelains were displayed in the hall and calligraphy and paintings were hung on the walls, which made the female guest dazzled.

She exclaimed: "These things are so beautiful, and how they are made is amazing!"

Ye Zifen said proudly: "These are gifts from the emperor, so I put them here. I can't give them to others, and I naturally can't exchange them with you, but the emperor should give you some before you leave."
