All the ministers stood up and saluted the figure who entered the room: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Long live Your Majesty!"

"Stand up, the King of the Southern Territory is coming today, Great Yan..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by a voice of "Sister Wang". A young man in brightly colored clothes rushed over, but was blocked by a spear.

"Xiao Lie, step back." The emperor spoke and naturally put down his spear.

The young man immediately rushed over with a smile and hugged Guan Tianxin tightly: "Sister Wang, I missed you so much."

Guan Tianxin was neither happy nor sad, and did not return the hug. He said calmly: "Your Majesty, have you forgotten the etiquette?"

Pingli Tuer let go of his hand and said reluctantly, "Greetings to His Majesty the Great Yan."

The ministers of the Southern Region delegation also stood up, put their fingers together and pointed at their brows, then leaned forward and said, "Greetings, His Majesty the Great Yan."

The emperor was interrupted, but he was not displeased. He nodded and said, "No need to be polite. Guests are welcome. Dayan will make you feel at home."

The old man standing at the front of the delegation saluted again: "Your Majesty, our King of the Southern Territory is young, please forgive me if I am impolite. The Southern Territory came to Dayan with a friendly heart."

"It's okay, it's just a small matter, you don't have to take it to heart."

The emperor took his seat, Guan Tianxin walked towards the East Palace seat, Pingli Tur followed like a follower, and everyone thought that the Southern Territory delegation would be seated now, but unexpectedly, all of them stood in front of the East Palace seat.

Put two fingers together and point them at the center of the eyebrows, kneel down and kowtow. This is the highest standard of etiquette that can be performed in the South Region when meeting the king. The faces of the ministers changed slightly. The status of the Saint of the South Region is higher than they thought...

The delegation said in unison: "May the Saint be safe and sound."

Pingli Tur sat next to Guan Tianxin. He had no opinion on this. He picked up the fruit and started biting it. He was also looking at the other fruits in the fruit plate. He probably had never seen them in the Southern Region.

"I am already the Crown Princess of Dayan, and I have no plans to return to the Southern Region. As for my status as a Saint, I will ask the King to issue an order to abolish it. People from the Southern Region do not need to perform formalities when they see me."

The elder in the lead, Yunong Wutu, said again: "May the Saint be safe and sound."

The delegation shouted again in unison, with no intention of getting up.

Guan Tianxin said coldly: "Are you planning to kowtow to death? You understand what I am saying. What can you change by coming here?"

Yunong Wutu said again: "May the Holy Lady be safe and sound."

The half-eaten apple fell on Yunong Wutu's head: "Old thing, not only do you bully me, but you even dare to threaten my sister. Are you really tired of living?" Pingli Tur said angrily.

"Snapped."

Guan Tianxin slapped him and said, "How dare you! Without the Prime Minister, you might have survived to this day. Don't you even have the basic feeling of gratitude?"

Pingli Tur covered his face and stood there in shock, tears streaming down his face: "Sister Wang...you fought me for this old thing?"

"I'm going to hit you, get out!"

Guan Tianxin was in a very bad mood at the moment. He glanced at the people kneeling on the ground and frowned, saying, "Get up. The position of the Saintess will be postponed. The Prime Minister is old and should not kneel. Since he cares about the Southern Region, he should keep his body useful."

Yunong Wutu then stood up and said, "Thank you for your concern, Saint. I will try my best to stay alive and see you return the boundless clear sky of the Southern Region to me."

Guan Tianxin suddenly laughed out loud: "Boundless clear sky? Prime Minister has learned to joke at his age. It's really funny. I am laughing so hard that tears are about to come out. Please take your seat."

Yunong Wutu looked deeply at Guan Tianxin and led the delegation to their seats.

After the banquet started, all the ministers looked at each other in bewilderment. This welcoming banquet for guests from foreign countries was truly the strangest one they had ever experienced.

His Majesty did not ask about the purpose of the visit from the Southern Territory and enjoyed the banquet seriously.

The Crown Princess kept drinking, and the King of the Southern Region sat beside her, covering his face and crying.

The delegation remained silent and enjoyed the singing and dancing of Dayan. The atmosphere was indescribably weird.

At the end of the banquet, when the dancers left, a civil official in the delegation stood up tremblingly and said, "Your Highness... I was summoned by the Regent before I left, and I brought you... a gift."

"Since you are so scared, it seems that you are not a good person. What will you do if I don't want it?"

The civil official choked up and said, "My wife and children are all in the Regent's Palace."

"Why am I so happy today? Maybe it's because when I see you, I can smell the rotten swamp in the southern region."

"What are you waiting for? Bring it up to the ministers of Great Yan to broaden their horizons and see what the national conditions in foreign lands are like. They will probably understand why I want to abandon the land where I was born."

After the civil official passed the order, servants from the Southern Territory carried in a red box that was more than two meters long. Before it was opened, the smell of blood inside had already filled the hall.

The generals who had smelled human blood all frowned. How much blood would it take to have such a strong smell?

The servant opened the box, and Yunong Wutu closed his eyes, as if he couldn't face it...

A roll of dark red cloth that was so thick that it required several people to lift it was revealed. The color was uneven and the stench was unbearable. Many generals were shocked and had obviously figured out what the infection was...

The civil official's eyes were red, but he still spoke with a trembling voice for the sake of his wife and children.

"The regent said that Saint Tianxin has been compassionate to slaves since she was young, building tribes and comforting people, and speaking for the people. This is a great honor for a lowly slave. Now that the saint is alone in a foreign country, how can she be left alone to take care of her?"

"Then... the tribe was slaughtered, and the blood of tens of thousands of people was used to weave brocade. I hope the Saint will use this brocade to make gorgeous clothes. Even in a foreign country, do not forget your homeland. Respectfully presented by the Regent King of the Southern Territory, War Falcon Tur."

Yan Yu, who had been holding a lot of anger in his heart, kicked over the seat.

"What do you want from the Southern Region? Are you sending us a gift or trying to intimidate us, Great Yan? How can the Crown Princess of Great Yan allow you to insult her so easily? Do you want to start a war?"

Yunong Wutu stood up and saluted, saying, "Your Highness the Seventh Prince, please calm down. The Southern Territory has absolutely no such intention. This is the personal behavior of the Regent."

"My King of the Southern Territory is in the palace right now. If he had any ill intentions towards Dayan, he would never come here. Your Highness and everyone else, please understand clearly."

At a look from the emperor sitting in the first seat, Yan Yu immediately returned to his seat obediently.

"I wonder why the King of the Southern Territory came to Dayan this time?"

Just as Pingli Tur was about to ask for the king's sister, he was interrupted by Yunong Wutu.

"Your Majesty, the Saint's status in the Southern Region is no different from that of the King. If someone of this status wants to marry the Crown Prince of your country, it is not something that can be decided by a decree from Your Majesty. This is a matter of state."

"The news about the Crown Princess has caused unrest in the Southern Region. The people cannot believe that the Saint Girl would marry far away and have been besieging the Royal Court all day long. If this continues, the Southern Region will inevitably be in chaos."

"I, as a minister, naturally dare not interfere with the Saint's intentions, but how can I ignore the unrest among the people? I have no choice but to ask the King to submit a letter to the Saint in Dayan and ask for a holy order to pacify the Southern Region."

The emperor nodded in approval: "The Prime Minister cares about the people, and it is reasonable for him to come to Dayan. I will naturally not stop him. Crown Princess, how do you plan to solve this matter?"
