When Direza was feeling uneasy, the carriage suddenly stopped, and Ye Chen's imperial procession also stopped in front of the carriage.

Direza heard the noise and came out.

At this moment, Direza was wearing a red dress with green sleeves. She had a tall and graceful figure, black hair and blue eyes, and skin as white as snow. There was a unique wild beauty in her mixed-race appearance.

She was slightly stunned when she saw Ye Chen wearing a dragon robe.

Upon seeing this, the Dayuan envoy Maimaiti and other Dayuan people knelt down and saluted.

After Direza came to his senses, he also knelt down, but only on one knee.

Cheng En saw this and immediately raised his voice and said, "How bold!"

Ye Chen waved his hand gently to stop Cheng En who was about to blame Di Reza.

His eyes fell on Direza, with a look of tolerance in them, and his tone became gentle.

"Don't blame those who don't know."

As Ye Chen spoke, the emperor's majesty did not diminish, but he became more magnanimous.

When Direza heard Ye Chen's words, she was slightly shocked. She felt the powerful imperial aura of Ye Chen, which was a power that could make people feel awe.

Even from the King of Dayuan, Direza had never felt such a momentum.

"Everyone, get up."

Ye Chen's voice remained calm.

Direza stood up, and his green eyes suddenly flashed with an unruly light, and there was a hint of rebelliousness in his eyes.

Even though Ye Chen has an amazing aura, she will not give in easily.

Ye Chen's heart moved slightly. He saw rebelliousness and wildness in Direza's eyes, but his face remained calm, showing the calmness of an emperor.

He spoke slowly, his voice echoing in the hall like a huge bell.

"All Dayuan citizens can live in the places originally occupied by the examinees. As for Princess, I will arrange a special palace for you to live in."

There was a sense of grace in Ye Chen's words. After all, allowing an envoy to live next to the imperial palace was already a blessing.

Upon hearing this, Maimaiti and others knelt down to express their gratitude.

After kneeling on one knee, Direza suddenly raised her delicate chin and spoke in a firm tone.

"Your Majesty, I would like to stay with the Dayuan envoy and the rest of the delegation."

Direza's words were so powerful that the Dayuan envoy, Maimaiti, was shocked when he heard them. He anxiously advised, "Princess, please don't do this. This is against etiquette and betrays your majesty's kindness."

Hearing this, Direza remained unmoved. She crossed her arms over her chest, her eyes filled with stubbornness.

Ye Chen frowned when he saw her like this.

This Direza is like an untamed wild horse.

It does take some effort to make her obey.

However, it is interesting that this woman is so straightforward.

Ye Chen even developed a desire to conquer.

Then, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

"Since the princess insists, I agree."

Hearing this, Direza was slightly stunned. She didn't expect Ye Chen didn't force her.

This made her feel a little relieved, and she felt that although Ye Chen had lied to her before, he was not a difficult person to get along with.

Ye Chen then spoke again: "Princess Dayuan, I will obey you today, but tomorrow morning during the court session, if I summon you, you must be available at any time."

"Tomorrow, I will discuss with the ministers your admission into the palace and finalize the relevant matters concerning the marriage between our two countries."

At this moment, Ye Chen's tone was calm and full of dominance.

Hearing this, Direza's heart trembled. She felt that Ye Chen's words were full of majesty, making it impossible for her to refuse.

She just pursed her lips slightly, and her delicate and beautiful lips turned slightly pale.

She was actually a little nervous inside.

"Yes."

Direza lowered his head.

Seeing that Direza had no objection, Ye Chen said to Cheng En, "Take the princess and the envoys down and settle them down."

"promise."

Cheng'en made a gesture of invitation.

After Maimaiti hurriedly took Direza and the members of the delegation to retreat, Ye Chen sat in the emperor's ceremonial guard and returned to the Yangxin Palace.

He also has to deal with many government affairs. Yun Fuyao is still in Chang'an, which is a bit far away, so many things need to be done by him personally.

After working late into the night.

Ye Chen wrote a letter asking Yun Fuyao to return immediately after collecting information about the local nobles in Chang'an, and asked Cheng En to arrange a fast horse to deliver the letter before going to bed.

That night, he did not summon any concubines to serve him.

The next morning, he got up, put on his dragon robe, put on the emperor's crown, sat on the emperor's ceremonial guard, and headed towards the Taiqian Palace.

The atmosphere in Taiqian Hall was solemn and dignified.

All the officials bowed respectfully, and Su Mengjiao sat upright behind the pearl curtain.

Just as all the officials stood up, a majestic sound of ceremonial procession was heard, and Ye Chen arrived in front of the Taiqian Palace.

Seeing this, all the officials had no choice but to kneel down again.

Ye Chen strode into the Taiqian Palace with great speed, walked to the dragon throne with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, sat down, waved his hand, and said with full energy: "Stand up."

The eunuch who was delivering the message hurriedly shouted, "All the nobles, please stand up."

All the officials then slowly stood up.

"The envoy from Dayuan arrived yesterday. I will form an alliance with Dayuan through marriage."

When Ye Chen said this, most of the officials looked shocked.

Just when everyone was at a loss, Yang Dechang stood up.

His face was as dark as the abyss, making it impossible to tell what he was thinking. He bowed to Ye Chen and then spoke.

"Your Majesty, I believe this action is inappropriate. Dayuan is merely a small foreign nation. Its national strength and culture are far inferior to ours, Dayu. It is truly unworthy of us, Dayu."

Hearing this, Ye Chen glanced at Yang Dechang. His eyes seemed to be able to penetrate Yang Dechang's soul, and Yang Dechang couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

Ye Chen then spoke.

"That's wrong. Dayuan may be small, but it's located in the Western Regions and has a very important strategic position. If I, Dayu, want to extend my influence to the Western Regions, a marriage alliance with Dayuan is a good strategy."

Hearing this, Yang Dechang calmed down and continued, "But the Princess of Dayuan doesn't know the etiquette of my Dayu. She must be a vulgar person. How can she enter the harem?"

Hearing this, Ye Chen's mouth corners slightly raised, as if smiling.

"There are many people in my harem who know etiquette, but I feel too constrained. It doesn't matter if the Princess of Dayuan doesn't know etiquette. I don't mind. What do you mind, Prime Minister?"

"Or is it that the Prime Minister is too bored and wants to meddle in my family affairs?"

Hearing this, Yang Dechang gritted his teeth and said, "This old minister believes that the sudden marriage of the princess from Dayuan is against common sense. Perhaps she is harboring evil intentions and wants to use this to disrupt the order of Dayu's government. She is a demon concubine."

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen's eyes instantly turned cold. He slammed the armrest of the dragon throne, and his aura erupted like a volcano.

"I have met the Princess of Dayuan, and I do not think she harbors any evil intentions. You have no evidence, so please do not slander me!"

There was unquestionable majesty in Ye Chen's voice, and Yang Dechang was so frightened by this momentum that his body trembled slightly.

His eyes darkened slightly, but he still did not intend to retreat.

"Your Majesty, if you really insist on marrying the Princess of Dayuan, it will lead to disaster in the future and endanger our country!"

When Ye Chen heard this, he became furious.

"You fart!"

The cry of "You farted" made all the officials in the court look surprised.

Then I was shocked!
