The Fourth Prince's words piqued the interest of all the Dacheng people.
The emperor asked, "Oh? What method?"
Mu Anjin looked at the assembled officials, then at the emperor.
The Emperor immediately understood: "If you have nothing else to say, my beloved ministers, you may leave."
"Long live the Emperor!"
After the large group of people left, Mu Anjin spoke up: "There are plenty of men in Daqi. It won't hurt to pick one of the ministers and send him to Tianlan. It will also serve as a warning to those restless ministers, letting them know who they are relying on to get their wealth and status."
"Okay, that's good."
The emperor looked at Mu Anjin and couldn't help but laugh: "Excellent, excellent, this method suits my taste perfectly."
“Father, Tianlan Kingdom is just a small country. Although its strength has grown stronger in recent years, it is still no match for Daqi. Their desire for a Daqi prince to marry into the kingdom is wishful thinking. Moreover, women are respected in Tianlan. If a Daqi man goes there, he will only suffer humiliation and disgrace. Why doesn’t Father treat this marriage as a form of punishment?”
The emperor nodded: "My son is right. Then you shall decide on the choice of the person to be sent for the marriage alliance."
Mu Anjin nodded: "Yes, Father."

Embroidery at the entrance of the Four Seas.
Lord Zhao stood at the door, a long-lost smile on his face.
"Shall we choose from these?"
Su Yunyan could tell from afar that this guest was no ordinary person, so she went to the door and welcomed him inside.
Lord Zhao carefully examined the embroidery on the display case, nodding repeatedly: "Not bad, not bad."
"Which one do you like? Or what style do you prefer? We can customize it."
Lord Zhao pointed to the round fan on the wooden display stand and said, "I think this one is quite nice."
Su Yunyan quickly took it down and placed it in her hand: "This round fan is the most popular in the store. You have excellent taste."
Knowing that the shop was run by a woman, Lord Zhao couldn't help but want to chat a bit more.
"Actually, I don't need it; I bought it as a gift."
Is this a gift for your younger sister?
Lord Zhao shook his head slightly. Just then, Lan Xi walked in carrying a food box.
"Yunyan, look what I brought you!"
Lord Zhao was slightly stunned. Wasn't that familiar voice Lanxi's?
"Lanxi?"
Lanxi placed the food box in Yunyan's hands and then saw Lord Zhao standing in the shop.
She turned her head to look and exclaimed in surprise, "Sister Dan?"
Zhao Yudan's lips trembled slightly, and she almost burst into tears: "You girl, you're already a married woman, why do you still look so clumsy?"
Lanxi hugged Danjie tightly and started sobbing.
"Sister Dan, what brings you here? I've missed you so much!"
Lord Zhao patted her back tenderly: "Alright, alright, stop crying. It's so embarrassing to do this in front of so many people."
"So you're from Lanxi's family. Please come and sit down in the back room."
Yunyan led the two to the back room.
As soon as she sat down, Lanxi started asking her a barrage of questions.
"Sister Dan, why did you suddenly come to Daqi? Is there some mission? Can I go back with you? I really want to go back to Tianlan. Sister Dan, how long are you staying this time? Who else came with you? Liu Xiang, whom I hate the most, didn't come, did he?"
Lord Zhao rubbed his temples and said with a smile, "Your temperament hasn't changed. I'm here on official business, but I also came specifically to visit you. I'll be leaving in three days."
Lanxi pouted: "So fast? I didn't even get a chance to catch up with Sister Dan properly. It's been so long since I've seen people from my hometown."
Lord Zhao looked at his red eyes and felt sorry for him: "We are very worried about you. Daqi is not like Tianlan. You must take good care of yourself. Don't feel wronged. If you are unhappy, tell us."
Lanxi nodded: "I haven't suffered any injustice, I just miss home and want to go back."
