After talking with the princess of the Women's Kingdom, the princess was very happy.
After all, cooperating with a powerful country like the Ming Dynasty would be a very good thing for the Women's Kingdom.
Her Kingdom of Women wasn't very large, so the huge market of the Ming Dynasty made it easy for them to do business there.
As long as they have even a slight demand, it's easy for the market in the Kingdom of Women to become saturated.
After the princess of the Women's Kingdom was sent away, other countries came one after another to curry favor with them.
After all, the strength and power of the Ming Dynasty were undeniable, and many countries still harbored ambitions towards it.
And so, Zhu Yunwen spent the entire afternoon meeting with princes and princesses, keeping himself quite busy and enjoying himself immensely.
After everything was resolved, Zhu Yunwen had dinner that evening. Sitting in a chair in the room, he said to Zhao Qingzhu:
"After we finish our business trip this time, we should go back and work together to improve our cooperation with other countries as soon as possible."
Trade is a very important thing, and it has a significant impact on a country; we cannot ignore it.
Zhao Qingzhu didn't actually understand these things, but since Zhu Yunwen said so, there must be some truth to it.
Actually, Zhao Qingzhu was more concerned about the gathering of princes from various countries the next day.
Zhu Yunwen was not very worried about this, which was his confidence and strength.
Soon, the next day arrived, and a banquet was held in the royal palace of Baoxiang Kingdom that morning.
In a grand hall within the palace, many tables were set up, each laden with a variety of delicious foods.
The princes and princesses from various countries had already taken their seats early on.
Zhu Yunwen arrived relatively late. Interestingly, when he reached the main hall, he found that the very first few seats had already been taken.
Logically speaking, at a gathering of this caliber, as the grandson of the Ming Dynasty's crown prince, he should have a place in the best position, perhaps even sitting in the first seat among all the princes.
However, at this moment, at a glance, the first table in the main hall is occupied by the prince of Chechi Kingdom.
Next came the princes from Wuji Kingdom and Zhu Zi Kingdom.
Sitting in the very front row, they showed no intention of leaving a good seat for Zhu Yunwen.
Zhu Yunwen glanced at the seats behind him; most of them were occupied, with only a few empty tables remaining at the very back.
The princes in front were quite bold, not leaving a seat for Zhu Yunwen, so the princes in the middle and back naturally felt even more at ease sitting in those seats.
After all, they felt that such a position shouldn't be given to Zhu Yunwen; he should just watch the show.
Zhu Yunwen merely smiled slightly. Beside him, Zhao Qingzhu whispered:
"It's obviously aimed at you. You should have been in first place by default, but you took it. Prince of Chechi Kingdom, you're really getting more and more out of touch with your place."
Zhu Yunwen still had a smile on his face, as if he didn't care about the matter at all.
Then he sat down at the very back with Zhao Qingzhu. Since some people didn't know their place, Zhu Yunwen might as well not know his place at all.
He didn't believe that this matter would just be left like that.
Sure enough, after Zhu Yunwen sat down, all the princes and princesses cast strange glances at him.
Clearly, no one expected that Zhu Yunwen would willingly sit in such a relatively back position.
In their imagination, Zhu Yunwen would definitely be very angry and go forward to question the prince of Chechi Kingdom and the other princes sitting in the front seats.
And make them give up their positions!
But things didn't turn out that way, which surprised everyone.
This also made the prince of Chechi Kingdom feel as if he had punched empty air once again.
Then, he gave a cold laugh and said, as if talking to himself:
"Some people are quite clear about their place and know where they should sit."
These blatantly pointed words immediately created a tense atmosphere, but Zhu Yunwen calmly took over the conversation, saying:
"Yes, it's a pity that some people don't know how to recognize their place and sit in a position they shouldn't be in. They probably can't bear the consequences."
The prince of Chechi Kingdom immediately sneered and said to Zhu Yunwen:
"Is the Crown Prince of the Ming Dynasty referring to me?"
Zhu Yunwen smiled slightly:
"If a bone is thrown away, there will always be dogs that get hit and start barking..."
The prince of Chechi clenched his fist, but Zhu Yunwen didn't give him a chance to speak. He looked at the fruit on the table, then calmly continued:
"The way these fruits are arranged is quite interesting. These pears, which aren't usually popular, are placed so prominently. But so what?
Even though it's placed in such a prominent position, people who don't like it would never bother to try it. Personally, I prefer grapes.
As Zhu Yunwen spoke, he reached past the pear in front of him, picked a grape, put it in his mouth, and ate it.
Although he said this casually, the princes and princesses present noticed that no one actually ate the pears.
Although there were many fruits on display, pears seemed to be the most common and the least desirable among them.
