"Princess, I went to inquire as you instructed. The person has already arrived at the front courtyard, and the concubine has already gone there." Chuncao said to Wuxiha, who was standing in front of the railing in front of Lanxingju.
"Chuncao, do you think Father will agree if I make an excuse to go inside and take a look?" Wuxiha asked hesitantly.
"Ah, Princess, you can't go in at this time," Chuncao said with a surprised look. "Princess, you can't go out to see them now. Wait until the Prince and the Consort have clarified things and everything is settled. You..."
"I'm going to talk to Xueying!" Wuxiha turned and left. Ever since she learned that the man had come to the palace, her heart had been pounding wildly.
Meanwhile, Suhar and his master, Mr. Xia, were already seated in the main room of the Fourth Master. Lanqin was keeping the Fourth Master company, and was currently staring at Suhar.
It must be said that this foreigner was indeed handsome. Apart from his blue eyes, his other features were not much different from those of people from the Central Plains, and his hair was even black.
"Prince Suhar, you just said that your mother is from the Central Plains?" Lanqin asked after hearing Lan Suhar's self-introduction.
“That’s right, that’s why I bear some resemblance to the people of your Central Plains. My mother is from Tonglu,” Suhar said.
"So that's how it is. I suppose the prince came to our Great Qing Dynasty to see his mother's hometown," Lanqin said.
“Exactly. Since arriving in the Great Qing, I have been deeply impressed by its wealth and the breadth of its culture. I am thinking that if I could bring back the excellent disease prevention techniques of the Great Qing, it would be of great significance to the people of Dayuan,” Suhar said. He felt that the Fourth Prince’s face remained calm, like a vulture in Dayuan, always observing and waiting for the right moment to strike.
“Your Highness is truly thoughtful.” Upon hearing this, the Fourth Prince finally spoke up. “The silk and tea of the Great Qing have always been exported to Europe and have also passed through the border of Dayuan. If Your Highness could bring back the weaving techniques, it would reduce the amount of silk fabrics your country imports from the Great Qing.”
Lanqin glanced at the Fourth Master and knew that this man disliked the Dayuan prince in front of him.
"The textiles and embroidery of the Qing Dynasty are truly exquisite. I think that if my Great Yuan wants to learn even a little bit from them, it will take a lot of effort. So I have come to visit Prince Yong today with a request." Suhar said, seemingly unaffected by the Fourth Prince's dark expression.
"Speak freely!" Fourth Master said coldly.
"I would like to bring a group of textile workers from Dayuan to learn from the textile workers of the Qing Dynasty. I wonder if Your Highness would allow it? Actually, I can also hire skilled craftsmen from the Qing Dynasty to go to Dayuan at a high price," Suhar said with a smile.
Lanqin discovered that this Prince Suhar was indeed no ordinary prince from a small country; he actually spoke of these things in front of the Fourth Prince, and did so with such nonchalance.
"The prince may do as he pleases," the Fourth Prince said, his face growing increasingly dark.
"But I think it would be better for both of us if the Qing Dynasty could trade with our Dayuan. Our Dayuan weavers could come to the Qing Dynasty to learn skills, and at the same time, they could teach the Qing Dynasty how to raise warhorses," Suhar said, looking at the Fourth Prince with his pure, icy blue eyes.
Sure enough, his words piqued the Fourth Master's interest. Men really are interested in war!
"The fine horses of Ferghana are renowned. What if we could breed a large number of excellent horses on the land of the Qing Dynasty?" Suhar continued to entice.
