"BoBo sent a telegram."
What's the situation now?
Yinzhen said, "We can begin negotiations now."
"Are you planning to have Bobo do it, or send someone else over?"
Yinzhen said, "Bobo has done a good job in training these past few years. This is an opportunity for him to train some more."
"Alright."
Over there, on the other side of the kissing machine.
"Father said that we can take full control of the negotiations here. Tingyu, you are in charge of drafting the treaty. Fuqing, you are in charge of maintaining order in the army. Although we have won, we cannot let our guard down. We will wait until the dust settles down before making any further decisions."
Zhang Tingyu and Fuqing: "Yes, First Prince."
They started getting busy right there.
Qiu Wen asked Luo Xue with some distress, "Master, are you really going to go to sea?"
Qiu Wen was indeed feeling a bit bored, so she decided to go out to sea to take a look. After all, with the system around, she felt she could be more at ease at sea.
"Don't worry, I've never seen you worry about me this much before. This voyage will be just like before, there won't be any danger."
“But I’ve heard that pirates are rampant lately. In the past, the army kept them in check, but recently we’ve heard that the Qing navy is mostly in Japan, so they’ve become more relaxed here. Master, why don’t we wait a little longer? It’s not too late for you to go to sea after the lord returns.”
Qiu Wen is a thoughtful person. She knows that pirates are rampant here recently, but she is not without any trump cards. She is a person who loves to enjoy life. Now that she is married, her husband is the person she has chosen. She wants to spend her life with him, so she still values her life.
Since she has a guarantee of safety, why doesn't she go out to sea?
The system recently updated to include a new fishing boat. It looks just like an ordinary fishing boat on the outside, but its internal structure is extremely sophisticated. The system introduction states that, putting aside its external destructive power, its escape speed and ability to withstand external impacts are top-notch.
The final result was obvious: Qiu Wen won, as Luo Xue had never beaten Qiu Wen in this regard.
Zhang Tingyu is currently drafting a treaty, while Qiu Wen is about to set off to conquer the stars and the sea.
Qiu Wen's situation is going relatively smoothly for now, with good results, while Zhang Tingyu's treaty is almost finalized.
Treaties are like this: one party makes an outrageous demand, and the other party has to settle for whatever they can get. Of course, the losing party might not have much leverage.
Anyway, when the Emperor finally saw the draft treaty, he was so angry he almost jumped up, but unfortunately he had to have a principled opportunity.
"Your Majesty, I have an idea."
"What idea?"
"Marriage alliance".
"You mean Junko?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, the princess is innocent and lovely, with a beauty bestowed by heaven. She is the most precious gift that heaven has given to our Japan."
The Emperor eventually agreed. Junko was the Emperor's daughter, a princess of Japan, and the most beautiful and talented princess. Naturally, she was unwilling to be sent for a political marriage.
Junko possesses a naturally beautiful appearance, making her extremely proud. The Emperor also dotes on this princess, raising her to be anything but naive, but she certainly feels very important in the Emperor's eyes. However, now that her most beloved Emperor is forcing her into a political marriage, how can she possibly accept this?
Then she began a hunger strike, trying to express her unwillingness and dissatisfaction. However, in the face of national affairs, there was no room for personal feelings, and the Emperor paid no heed to her hunger strike.
Finally, she got very hungry and ate something, but she became very depressed. Then she realized that this was not something she could choose.
"Princess, the date has been set. We will depart the day after tomorrow."
Junko said, "I understand. Help me prepare my clothes. I'm going to see my father."
Junko went to see the Emperor. The Emperor knew that his daughter had just thrown a tantrum, but after doting on her for so many years, he was honestly a little reluctant to send her away for a political marriage.
Junko behaved very well this time, and the Emperor was very pleased with his daughter's obedience. Then the Emperor said some things to her, asking her to send out some news about the Qing Dynasty when necessary. Junko had no reason to refuse.
Two days later, Junko went to the port with the negotiation team.
Bobo naturally got the news. Fuqing, being quite lively, even joked, "Big Prince, they're trying to use their beauty on you. I heard that Princess Chunzi is extremely beautiful."
Bobo said, "Alright, you can come if you like."
Fuqing quickly shook his head: "Let's forget it."
Fuqing grew up in a life of luxury, surrounded by beautiful maids and the like. Besides, the Japanese princess was more beautiful than a celestial being, and he was not worthy of her. It was better for the Japanese to enjoy her beauty themselves.
The Qing Dynasty valued practical interests more than anything else; they couldn't even sleep soundly without thinking about princesses.
Bobo laughed and said, "Then Fuqing will be in charge of receiving this negotiation team." Naturally, that would include Princess Chunzi. Fuqing immediately let out a wail.
He came over today to discuss who would be in charge of hosting tomorrow, and he just said one more thing, and then he was assigned to it. Look at his mouth, how can he be so cheeky!
"Tingyu, what do you think?"
Fuqing is truly not good at dealing with this kind of thing.
Zhang Tingyu quickly shook his head and refused, saying, "My daughter is already married. I'm afraid she'll overthink things if she finds out. I'm glad you've gone to so much trouble this time."
Fu Qing thought to himself, how could Qiu Wen know, being so far away?
As it turned out, Zhang Tingyu seemed to be able to read his mind and said, "There are no secrets that stay hidden forever. If you don't want people to know, then don't do it in the first place."
