Chapter 274 Unexpected
At this moment, Xiao Yiyun suddenly stood up and bowed slightly to the East Emperor:
"Your Majesty, I would like to stay in the imperial capital for a few more days this time."
Dongdi was a little surprised, but still asked with a smile: "Oh? Why is that?"
Xiao Yiyun smiled and explained:
"The trade delegation from the Southern Kingdom will arrive here in a few days. We want to do some big business with the Eastern Kingdom. So I want to stay in the imperial capital for a while longer to see if there is any possibility of cooperation."
Hearing this, the Eastern Emperor's eyes suddenly lit up and he laughed out loud: "Haha! This is good news! On behalf of the Eastern Kingdom, I welcome you!"
As he spoke, the Emperor turned to look at the Crown Prince and said:
"Prince, the Southern Emperor is a distinguished guest and must be treated well. If you have any needs, feel free to ask and do not neglect him."
The prince quickly stood up and agreed, then smiled at Xiao Yiyun and said, "During your stay in the imperial capital, I will make sure you feel the hospitality of our Eastern Kingdom."
Xiao Yiyun smiled and nodded to express his gratitude.
Everyone continued to drink and chat, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
After three rounds of wine and five dishes, the banquet gradually came to an end.
Xiao Yiyun once again expressed his deep gratitude to the Emperor of the East and the Crown Prince, saying that he would always remember this kindness, and sincerely invited them to visit the Southern Kingdom when they were free to experience the local customs and culture there.
The Emperor of the East and the Crown Prince were very happy about Xiao Yiyun's invitation, and they all said that they would definitely visit the Southern Kingdom if they had the chance to appreciate the beautiful scenery there and taste the local food.
The two parties also happily agreed on the time for the next meeting and look forward to meeting again in the future.
Then, Xiao Yiyun left the palace surrounded by a group of loyal guards.
He walked steadily and calmly, but his mind was full of thoughts. As he walked, he was thinking about his next plan.
He knew that although he had the support of the East Emperor and the Crown Prince this time, he still had a long way to go to achieve his goal.
He needs to keep working hard to continuously improve his strength. At the same time, he also realizes the importance of establishing friendly relations with other countries.
Only through cooperation and communication can we develop together and achieve win-win results.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yiyun's gaze became more determined.
Inside the palace, Emperor Dong was standing with his hands behind his back, looking in the direction where Xiao Yiyun left, with a hint of deep meaning in his eyes.
He knew that Xiao Yiyun's arrival this time was not just for business cooperation, but probably had other purposes...
Midnight, Chaoyang Garden, Prince's Mansion.
Qin Rubing tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep, with Xiao Yiyu's figure all in her mind.
When she left Yuncheng, her heart was filled with sadness. She felt that the fate between her and Xiao Yiyun had come to an end.
After all, the two countries are so far apart, how many chances do they have to meet again?
However, fate is always unexpected, and now he has caught up here!
She couldn't understand why he was so persistent, was it just because of his promise to her or did he really have deep feelings for her?
These questions made her feel confused and uneasy, and she didn't know how to deal with them.
Qin Rubing knew that she couldn't easily accept Xiao Yiyun's pursuit. She needed time to think and sort out her feelings.
After going through so many things, she is no longer the simple and innocent girl.
Now she is more mature and rational, and knows how to protect her heart from harm.
However, whenever Qin Rubing thought of Xiao Yiyu's affectionate eyes and gentle smile, her heart couldn't help but ripple.
She knew that deep down in her heart she still longed for that true love, but she didn't dare to easily believe whether all this was just a dream.
In this quiet night, Qin Rubing silently asked herself: "What should I do to find my own happiness?"
She knows the answer is not simple, and she will work hard to find her own answer in the days to come.
