“However, the situation within our respective nations presents a stark contrast.”

“The vast misunderstanding has arisen due to the divergent national contexts. It’s primarily a matter of differing customs and norms between Baizhou Land and Jinwei Land. These disputes may be vociferous, but they need not escalate to a national level.”

“Miss, please articulate your requirements. Baizhou Land will strive to accommodate them to the best of our ability without disrupting the harmony,” the King of Baizhou Land stated, a trace of their prior fierceness still lingering, although their visage now bore a facade of amicability.

At this point, Gu Chaoyan relented, withdrawing her imposing aura. She stood composed, her perplexity evident as she remarked, “King of Baizhou Land, I must clarify that I have never intended to impose undue burdens on your nation from the outset. I serve as an envoy and my sole expectation is that Baizhou Land greets us in a customary manner. I am earnest in this regard.”

The King of Baizhou Land was momentarily taken aback by her words.

After all, a substantial altercation had occurred moments ago, during which she had engaged in combat and held the upper hand. He had contemplated intervening but hesitated, aware that the cost might be too high. Yet, the woman chose not to escalate the situation.

This turn of events confounded him.

As the King, he had never encountered such an enigmatic individual before. Her unpredictability made it challenging to oppose her.

“A conventional reception suffices?” The King of Baizhou Land expressed a hint of skepticism, uncertain whether she spoke the truth or employed a ruse. He refrained from a hasty decision to avoid provoking her.

Gu Chaoyan nodded in agreement.

Her objectives in coming to Baizhou Land were fairly straightforward. She aimed to fulfill her mission and have the people of Baizhou Land wholeheartedly appreciate Jinwei Land’s women.

As for the King of Baizhou Land, despite his temperamental nature, he demonstrated a willingness to prioritize his nation’s interests, even going so far as to lower his voice in consideration of the country’s welfare. This quality wasn’t without merit.

Furthermore…

The King of Baizhou Land had personally witnessed her formidable power, which naturally bred a sense of trepidation within him. Otherwise, his demeanor wouldn’t have shifted in this manner.

Given these circumstances, he was well-suited to her intentions, and she had no intention of complicating matters for him.

Moreover, leaving her conditions unspoken would only deepen the King of Baizhou Land’s unease in the coming days, a situation she wished to avoid.

With her mind made up, Gu Chaoyan conveyed her decision.

The King of Baizhou Land breathed a sigh of relief, his countenance breaking into a beaming smile. “Yes, yes, indeed. A customary reception is in order. And not just that; they should be treated as honored guests.”

“I cannot afford to be lax in the slightest.”

In the days that followed, the King of Baizhou Land busied himself with the necessary arrangements. The princes and envoys from Jinwei Land had long anticipated their arrival, having made preparations for their temporary residence. As for Xu Xunnan and the other women, who had initially been unexpected guests, the King of Baizhou Land made special accommodations for them as part of his revised plans.

They resided in the most luxurious palace within Baizhou Land, where all their desires were promptly attended to. In this opulent abode, their encounters with the inhabitants felt akin to encounters with the King of Baizhou Land himself. Every interaction demanded the utmost respect, and no one dared to create any inconvenience.

Even in terms of cuisine, they enjoyed meals of a standard matching the daily fare of the King of Baizhou Land. Yet, beyond these essentials, the King of Baizhou Land had meticulously overseen various additional aspects of their stay. In Baizhou Land, no one apart from the late emperor had ever experienced the same level of consideration from the King of Baizhou Land.

Within the Baizhou Land Palace, these individuals…
