Isabella spoke again, but Qin Ze ignored her and began walking out of the banquet hall. At the same time, the Sheng Lu people at the conference table also followed Qin Ze out.

Eddington frowned and stepped forward to Isabella, whispering, "Your Majesty, the people of Yan are so arrogant and rude, why bother..."

Before she could finish speaking, Isabella had already hurriedly chased after him in her high heels. Eddington and Malcolm exchanged a glance and reluctantly followed.

At this moment, Lucat, who had just left the banquet hall, said to Qin Ze, "When I get back, I will immediately send someone to take the convention... no, I will take the convention back to Perion myself and ask Emperor Figueres to sign and seal it."

Qin Ze: "I may only stay here for about half a month to send the treaty back to the Roman Islands as soon as possible."

Lucat immediately nodded and said, "Okay, I'll set off for Perion tonight."

"Then... shall we go now?"

Qin Ze nodded slightly: "Go back, take your own ships back. Our fleet in your coastal waters should be on its way back as well."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lucate suddenly stopped in his tracks. Qin Ze looked at him with some confusion and immediately stopped as well.

Immediately afterwards, Lucate faced Qin Ze, bowed deeply to him, and said sincerely:

"Thank you for your generosity and your advocacy for peace, which has averted the possibility of war between us..."

At this point, Lukat paused, took a deep breath, and continued:

“Your country is far stronger than our Shenglu Kingdom, but what you are doing now, in the past, is something I could not have imagined… I…” Lucate stammered, but Qin Ze understood what he was trying to say.

So he reached out and patted Lucat on the shoulder, saying:

"All nations under heaven have their own ways of dealing with the world, and our way of dealing with the world can be summarized in just four words."

"Kindness and righteousness".

"Just consider the word 'harmony.' One meaning is 'harmony gives birth to all things,' meaning that when harmony is achieved, all things grow and multiply, flourishing vigorously, but..."

As Qin Ze was speaking, Isabella, who had appeared beside him unnoticed, nodded and murmured to herself:

"Harmony, kindness, benevolence and righteousness... bring harmony to all things..."

Qin Ze glanced at her, withdrew his hand from Lucat's shoulder, and said, "This could go on for days and nights, you should go back first."

"If you want to learn more in the future, you can come and visit our country. Of course, if you trespass into our territory without permission, all you will get are cannonballs."

Upon hearing this, Lucat smiled wryly and quickly shook his head, saying, "Absolutely not."

"Okay, let's go back." Qin Ze nodded slightly.

Immediately, Lukert and the Shenglu people beside him bowed to Qin Ze again and turned to leave.

Watching them walk out, Qin Ze then turned his gaze to Isabella to his left rear. She had followed them all the way from the banquet hall, and her two subordinates were whispering to each other, but she ignored them.

Qin Ze raised an eyebrow and asked, "What do you mean by that?"

Faced with Qin Ze's question, Isabella's expression was clearly somewhat unnatural, and she said softly, "There are still some things I need to discuss with you."

Upon hearing this, Qin Ze crossed his arms and said indifferently, "Why didn't you say so just now?"

Isabella lowered her eyes, her gaze darting away, and said in an increasingly weak voice, "At the time... I didn't expect it."

Qin Ze rubbed his temples and said coldly, "Then tell me now."

When asked this, Isabella turned to look at Eddington and Malcolm beside her, her expression gradually becoming serious: "You two go back to the dock first."

“Your Majesty, this…” Eddington hesitated, but before he could finish, Isabella interrupted him with an unquestionable tone:

"Let's go back to the dock first."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Eddington didn't know what else to say, so he could only give a worried reply, glance cautiously at Qin Ze's expressionless face, and then leave with Malcolm, looking back every few steps.

"What? Is there something you can't say in front of your subordinates? Or have you changed your mind about the agreement that was just signed?" After the two had left, Qin Ze stared intently at Isabella and asked in a cold voice.

"No, how could you think that?"

Unexpectedly, Isabella's serious expression suddenly turned into a faint smile. She pursed her lips and looked at Qin Ze with a smile.

Seeing that smile, Qin Ze's brows furrowed even more, and his voice grew increasingly cold as he said:

"Do I still need to force a smile now? I don't think it's necessary."

Upon hearing this, Isabella immediately shook her head and said, "No, I didn't...."

Qin Ze's face turned cold, and he snapped, "Enough! Stop pretending in front of me! I hate people who say one thing to my face and another behind my back!"

"If you have any objections to the convention, or if you go back and deny it, then go ahead and do it. I absolutely won't stop you!"

"Now, drop your pretense!"

Amidst the reprimand, Isabella's smile gradually faded, and she lowered her head, whispering:

"But I wasn't pretending."

Qin Ze sneered, staring at her without saying a word, while Isabella continued:

"Feel sorry."

"It must be because of the previous conflict with your country that you have such a deep misunderstanding of me..."

"But please believe me, now that this convention has been signed, I will definitely act in accordance with its provisions after I return."

At this point, Isabella, who had been hanging her head, raised her face and stared at Qin Ze without blinking:

“There may be some people who disagree, but I will overcome all those obstacles and ultimately achieve what you are asking for.”

"I have the ability to do it."

Seeing Isabella's words, which sounded like a "guarantee," Qin Ze raised an eyebrow, but it wouldn't be appropriate for him to keep a cold face.

His expression softened, and he said, "I hope you can keep your word, instead of just saying..."

Before she could finish speaking, Isabella said with a firm gaze, "What is said must be done, and what is done must be accomplished."

"This is what you told me when we met, and it makes a lot of sense, doesn't it?"

Qin Ze scratched his head and said, "That makes a lot of sense."

"You have a good memory."

Upon hearing this, Isabella smiled and said, "The advanced culture and ideas you convey always leave a deep impression on people, and they can't forget them even if they want to."

"Are you flattering me?" Qin Ze suddenly asked.

"Uh... compliment? No, absolutely not." Isabella quickly waved her hand.

Qin Ze was still skeptical, but as the saying goes, you can't hit a smiling face.

The Queen of Sassa's attitude changed so quickly, which is suspicious, but since she has already said so, further denial would only worsen the relationship, which is absolutely unnecessary.

Thinking of this, Qin Ze said, "Alright, let's get back to the main topic. Is there anything else we need to discuss?"

“If it’s about the terms of the contract, then I don’t think you need to say anything more.”
