Chapter 438: Shock the Dayuan envoy!
In the attic.
Ye Chen stood up and said, "I have decided to return to the palace. Yu Niang, tell Yan'er to collect more intelligence data from the countries in the Western Regions in the future."
Hearing this, Yu Niang felt a little reluctant.
She lowered her head slightly and said softly, "Your Majesty, don't worry. Yu Niang will definitely convey your Majesty's order to the boss."
There was a hint of loss in her voice and a look of reluctance in her eyes.
Ye Chen stood up and walked out the door, and Yu Niang hurriedly followed.
After Ye Chen got on the carriage, Yu Niang stood beside it, looking at it quietly.
Her eyes were full of reluctance, as if she wished time could stop at this moment.
The carriage started slowly, and Yu Niang still stood there, looking at the direction the carriage was leaving, unwilling to leave for a long time.
Ye Chen lifted the curtains and looked at Yu Niang's figure gradually moving away, feeling a little reluctant.
But he needed to get down to business and couldn't delay.
After the carriage entered the capital, he gave Shen Qiu an order with a dignified look: "Qiu'er, immediately send a message to the Dayuan envoy and arrange for him to enter the palace immediately."
Shen Qiu bowed slightly and replied respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Afterwards, Ye Chen turned the carriage around and went to Tong's Fish Shop.
The carriage slowly stopped in front of Tong's fish shop.
Ye Chen gently opened the curtains, and the lively scene outside instantly came into view.
There were many tables outside the fish shop, filled with diners.
People were laughing and talking, and the sounds of conversation and laughter were intertwined, making it very lively.
Lin Ziyun's attention was quickly attracted by Tong Le and Mo Rou.
Tong Le wore a simple and elegant dress, showing her graceful and charming temperament.
She moved gracefully and greeted guests with a smile.
Mo Rou has the voluptuous temperament of a married woman. She works in an orderly manner, handling everything in the store, and her every move exudes a mature charm.
Although the two were busy, they worked in perfect harmony and managed the fish shop business in an orderly manner.
Looking at this busy yet warm scene, Lin Ziyun's heart moved, but he finally decided to go back.
The curtains were lowered, the carriage slowly drove away, and the bustling Tong's Fish Shop gradually disappeared from his sight.
The carriage slowly stopped, and Ye Chen finally returned to the palace.
Shen Qiu was the first to get off the carriage. She had an upright posture, a cold temperament, and no expression on her beautiful face.
She bowed slightly and said to Ye Chen, "Your Majesty, I will return to Kunning Palace to report to the Queen Mother."
Ye Chen nodded slightly.
After parting with Shen Qiu, Ye Chen returned to the Yangxin Palace, only to see the eunuch Cheng'en already waiting respectfully at the palace gate, followed by a group of palace maids.
When Cheng En saw Ye Chen, he immediately knelt down and saluted, saying, "This old servant respectfully welcomes Your Majesty back to the palace."
Ye Chen nodded slightly and strode into the Yangxin Palace.
He said in a deep voice: "I need to change clothes."
Cheng'en hurriedly stood up and instructed the palace maids to prepare.
After a while, the palace maids came to Ye Chen holding the dragon robe and the emperor's crown.
Ye Chen opened his arms, and the palace maids carefully helped him put on the dragon robe.
The golden dragon embroidered on the dragon robe was lifelike and sparkled brightly in the sun.
Ye Chen stood straight with a stern look in his eyes, his aura of an emperor evident.
Cheng En put the emperor's crown on Ye Chen.
Ye Chen was wearing a dragon robe and the emperor's crown. He sat in the emperor's ceremonial guard and went to the Taiqian Palace.
When Ye Chen arrived at Taiqian Palace, the blond and blue-eyed Dayuan envoy Wang Baobao was already waiting there.
Wang Baobao's clothing is still completely different from that of people in the Central Plains, and is full of exotic style.
Ye Chen didn't even look at Wang Baobao. He strode forward and sat upright on the dragon throne. His powerful aura immediately spread around like a tide.
His eyes were deep and sharp, as if he could see through everything.
In the hall, in addition to Wang Baobao, Shen Qiu was also standing quietly by the side, his cool temperament like a snow lotus blooming on the top of a snow mountain.
She was extremely beautiful and graceful. She looked at Wang Baobao expressionlessly, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her eyes.
Wang Baobao saluted in an irregular manner with a hint of arrogance on his face.
Then, Wang Baobao spoke first.
"Your Majesty, the respected Emperor Dayu, I believe Your Majesty has carefully considered the conditions proposed by our Dayuan Kingdom.
As long as Your Majesty agrees, Dayuan will promise not to send troops."
Wang Baobao's tone was full of confidence, as if he was sure that Ye Chen would agree to his unequal conditions.
Ye Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, a sneer appearing on the corner of his mouth: "Dayuan Envoy, you are too confident. Do you know the plight of Dayuan now?"
Wang Baobao was slightly taken aback, and the arrogance on his face subsided a little. "Your Majesty, why do you say that? Our Dayuan Kingdom is powerful, so how can we be in trouble?"
Ye Chen stared into Wang Baobao's eyes and said slowly, "Wang Baobao, the arable land in Dayuan is constantly decreasing. If this problem is not solved, the future will be worrying."
Upon hearing this, Wang Baobao's expression suddenly changed, from arrogance to shock.
He widened his eyes and looked at Ye Chen in disbelief.
"You, how did you know?"
Hearing this, Ye Chen raised his chin slightly: "I am the Son of Heaven, and the affairs of the world are naturally under my control."
Hearing this, Wang Baobao was shocked and looked a little flustered.
Ye Chen said: "Even though Dayuan is in such a state now, you still dare to ask for such a huge amount of money. You are really very brave."
At this moment, the aura emanating from Ye Chen was extremely oppressive and breathtaking.
Hearing this, Wang Baobao was shocked and cold sweat broke out on his head.
Ye Chen looked at Wang Baobao calmly and said firmly, "However, I do have some ideas for desert management. Do you want to hear them?"
"I wonder what method your majesty is talking about?"
Wang Baobao asked anxiously.
At this moment he was already panicking. Dayuan's grasslands were indeed suffering from serious desertification, and he did not hide it.
Ye Chen raised his chin slightly and said with a smile: "Come back tomorrow and I will tell you."
Hearing this, although Wang Baobao was extremely anxious, he also knew that he couldn't force it at this time.
He lowered his head helplessly, bowed respectfully and said, "I will obey your majesty's orders and come back tomorrow to listen to your advice."
