Quickly wear, the host who harvests the plug-in
Chapter 400 Saint 10
Su Yun and the man in white couldn't help but walk closer to see what was going on.
This group of people were dressed in gorgeous but strange clothes. Leading them was a tall, stern-looking man with a jewel-studded crown on his head. His eyes revealed an innate arrogance.
When the guards saw Su Yun, they hurried forward to salute and report: "Saint, these people claim to be from Atlan, a country on the other side of the distant sea. They heard that our Dasheng Country and Jinyang Country are about to start cooperation, so they came to seek to establish diplomatic relations."
Su Yun nodded slightly, thinking to himself that he had never heard of the country of Atlantis, and wondered whether they came here sincerely to make friends or for other purposes.
The man in white whispered, "Girl, these people are here in a strange way. You need to be careful."
Su Yun gave him a grateful look, indicating she understood. Then, she stepped forward and said demurely, "Everyone is a guest from afar. The Great Sheng Nation always welcomes friends from all corners of the world. I'm just wondering what your specific intentions are in coming this time?"
The man headed by Atlan looked Su Yun up and down, a faint smile on his face. He spoke in the not-so-fluent Dasheng dialect, "I've long heard of the prosperity of Dasheng. Atlan is sincerely seeking an alliance. If an alliance is possible, our country is willing to provide valuable maritime trade routes to help Dasheng export its goods overseas and gain endless wealth."
Su Yun's heart moved. The sea trade route was indeed very attractive, but why did the other party easily propose such a good thing?
She responded calmly, "Your proposal sounds very tempting, but the alliance is a serious matter that requires consultation with our Majesty and the ministers of the court. Please rest in the inn for now, and we will provide a response as soon as possible."
The man from Atlan frowned slightly, as if he was not satisfied with Su Yun's answer, but still said: "I hope the Great Sheng Kingdom will not make us wait too long. Our patience is limited." After that, he led his entourage to the inn under the guidance of the guards.
Su Yun watched them depart, her worries growing. The man in white whispered, "Miss, I see this man's attitude is arrogant, and his words are subtly threatening. I'm afraid there's something fishy going on with this alliance."
Su Yun nodded and said, "I feel the same way. However, this maritime trade route does have a huge temptation for the development of the Great Sheng Nation. It seems that this matter needs to be considered in the long run."
After returning to the palace, Su Yun immediately informed the empress about the visit from Atlantis.
Upon hearing this, the Empress also found the matter fraught with difficulty. On the one hand, expanding maritime trade would undoubtedly further strengthen the nation's national strength; on the other hand, the risks associated with this sudden alliance request were difficult to foresee.
The empress summoned the ministers to discuss the matter. In the court, the ministers had different opinions.
Some ministers believed that this was a great opportunity for Dasheng Kingdom to go global and should not be missed; others worried that this was a conspiracy of Atlan Kingdom and that once an alliance was formed, they would be doomed.
Su Yun listened quietly to the ministers' arguments, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
Suddenly, a crucial question occurred to her: "Your Majesty, my Lords, we know nothing about Atlan. It would be too risky to hastily form an alliance without understanding their national conditions, strength, and true intentions. Perhaps we could first send an envoy to Atlan for an on-site inspection before making a final decision."
After hearing this, the Empress's eyes lit up and she said, "Yun'er is absolutely right. However, the person to be sent to Atlantis must be carefully selected."
Su Yun volunteered, "Your Majesty, I am willing to take on this important task. Firstly, I have some understanding of the affairs of various countries. Secondly, if I can go there in person, I can more accurately judge Atlan's sincerity and intentions."
The Empress looked at Su Yun's determined gaze. Though she felt a little worried, she also understood that he was the most suitable candidate. After a moment's hesitation, the Empress nodded and said, "Yun'er, the journey is long and full of dangers. You must be careful. I will select the most elite guards to accompany you."
Su Yun accepted the order, feeling both full of anticipation and a heavy sense of responsibility.
She knew very well that this mission to Atlan would determine the future of the Great Sheng Kingdom and there could be no mistakes.
In the days that followed, Su Yun began to intensively prepare for her mission. Upon learning of her decision, the man in white offered to accompany her and assist her in dealing with any possible situations.
