Chapter 1339 No one wants to be roasted on the fire
Prince Arnold: “.”
Deputy Envoy Das: “.”
Although the tense situation was resolved, why did I feel even more aggrieved?
The prince looked at Shao Yunduan with appreciation, smiled and said a few polite words. How could Prince Arnold dare to be stubborn at this moment? He quickly agreed with the prince, and his attitude subconsciously became a little respectful.
He finally understood that Daqin was sincere in wanting to befriend Qingdi, which was why they were so warm and generous to him. However, Daqin was definitely not afraid of Qingdi or him. If he really angered them, he would suffer the consequences.
He couldn't help but secretly glance at Shao Yunduan twice more, and to tell the truth from the bottom of his heart, although Shao Yunduan had just forced him into a miserable state and almost made him lose face, causing him to have a false alarm and then suddenly gave him a way out, making his mood up and down and feeling so sour, but he did not have the slightest resentment towards Shao Yunduan.
On the contrary, I feel sincere admiration.
The people of Qingdi are upright and admire capable people. In their eyes, Shao Yunduan is a capable person.
Looking at such a weak scholar, the words just now frightened him so much that his heart was beating wildly and he almost lost his composure. Not everyone has such ability.
What's even more rare is that he didn't force him aggressively. Instead, he turned hostility into friendship and gave him a way out when he had all the advantages, thus avoiding his embarrassment and awkwardness. It was hard for him not to feel relieved and grateful.
After all, no one wants to be roasted on the fire in public, right?
He asked himself, if he were in the situation where he had all the advantages, would he let his opponent go? The answer was definitely no.
But he did not despise or look down on Shao Yunduan just because he let him go.
You know, it was Shao Yunduan who had forced him into this predicament. It was also Shao Yunduan who had just aggressively pressured him, spoke eloquently, and severely insulted him.
Shao Yunduan was not afraid of him, but was willing to give him some dignity for the sake of diplomatic relations.
If he doesn't know what's good for him and provokes him again, it's hard to say whether he will be controlled by him again.
Anyway, he could never beat the minds of these scholars.
The host is dedicated to entertaining, and now the guests dare not cause trouble. Naturally, both the host and the guests will enjoy the banquet.
Not only Prince Arnold, but everyone else in Qingdi also realized that the Qin Dynasty was not so easy to bully, so they had better behave themselves. Otherwise, if there was a next time, it would be hard to say whether they would have a way out.
How could these honest people be a match for the Qin people when it comes to playing tricks and scheming? However, they were no match for them in terms of force, so what else could they do except to be restrained and behave like a qualified good guest?
That night, the party didn't end until late at night.
The prince was very happy, and he summoned Shao Yunduan and a few other confidants to his study to discuss matters. When Shao Yunduan returned home, it was already past midnight.
However, the banquet held in the Eastern Palace tonight was being watched by countless powerful and influential officials in the capital, and everyone, whether they had the opportunity to attend or not, was very interested.
Everything that happened at the banquet had already been spread to Empress Qi, Imperial Concubine Mei, Concubine De, the Crown Princess of the Eastern Palace, the Tian family, etc., even before the banquet was over.
Naturally, some people are happy and some are angry.
The Crown Princess finally breathed a sigh of relief, and her originally somewhat uneasy heart finally settled down.
