When Xin Sihua entered, Chen Xi was stunned.
What a handsome mixed-race man.
Her features are deep and three-dimensional, with an exotic charm.
His eyes were blue, like sapphires, and his nose was not like that of the Xin Dynasty, but much higher and more prominent.
Her hair was black and flowed smoothly down her back.
Unlike Shinsuding, whose hair is curly.
Xin Sihua, a mixed-race man, seems like a prince who stepped out of a fairy tale.
"Your Majesty, my younger brother's mother is from the Great Xin Dynasty, and he shares the same father as me."
He speaks fluent Singaporean language.
They have a thorough understanding of Daxin's traditional culture.
How many hearts are stirred by the sinking stream?
With such a handsome man in front of him, he's a feast for the eyes!
Furthermore, someone who could be sent away by the King of New St. without any burden must not be an important character.
It will not affect the politics of the Great Xin Dynasty.
"Alright, then I'll gladly accept it!"
Shenxi thought his ministers would object.
To everyone's surprise, after a moment of astonishment, they readily accepted the fact that the Empress was taking in handsome men.
They all had the same thought: once there's one, there's two; once there's two, there's three... and from three comes all things...
From then on, the Empress's harem was filled.
When Xin Siding learned that Xin Sihua could only follow the Empress for the time being, but was not the Imperial Consort, she was somewhat dissatisfied.
But upon learning that the Empress currently had no men, she immediately instructed Xin Sihua in public: "Xin Sihua, you must remember that you are a prince of Luo Kingdom. You know how to seduce Her Majesty the Empress and win her over to make you her royal consort. This is our marriage alliance with the Great Xin Dynasty."
Chenxi...
Is this how you educate your younger brother?
Xin Sihua offered no resistance and obediently sat down next to Chen Xi, personally feeding Chen Xi a grape.
"Your Majesty, these are our local specialty, physalis grapes."
Physalis?
Is it sour?
Chenxi ate one, and it was alright; it had a sweet and sour flavor.
It doesn't look very big, so it must be wild.
"It tastes good."
Some people are beautiful, and their voices are as melodious as a nightingale's song.
Hearing Chenxi's praise, Xinsiding was delighted.
The new ships, weapons, and vehicles of the Da Xin Dynasty are truly extraordinary.
We must establish good diplomatic relations with the Great Xin Dynasty so that these things can be transported to our country later.
Then, when he fights against the Romantic Kingdom, he will no longer be afraid of them.
The area of sea that we control will continue to expand.
Overjoyed, they immediately ordered the most precious fruits that their country uses to entertain foreign guests to be served.
Shenxi was still pondering what kind of fruit could be called the most precious fruit.
"Your Majesty, this is the fruit we serve only to our most friendly foreign guests. It tastes absolutely delicious!"
When the thorny, golden-yellow thing was brought up, Chenxi immediately knew.
durian?
Haha, it's durian!
This is Shenxi's favorite.
So much so that every time she ate durian, Di Yingxue next to her would have to back away.
Durian is the king of fruits.
But those who love it truly love it, while those who don't truly cannot accept it.
Di Yingxue was the one who couldn't accept it.
At this moment, just by looking into Chenxi's wolf-like eyes, one could tell that the Empress was about to feast.
The ministers around Shenxi were already used to their empress's love for durian.
Even at grand banquets for his officials, durian had to be served.
Some ministers disliked this food, but they couldn't leave it.
Later on, I actually got used to that peculiar smell.
Although I still can't bring myself to eat it, I can now watch others eat without batting an eye.
While enjoying her meal, Chenxi gave Xinsiding a thumbs-up, exclaiming, "Biutifu!"
A hint of heartache appeared in Shinsding's eyes.
Xin Sihua smacked her lips, but didn't touch the durian.
Chenxi could tell at a glance that he wanted to eat, so she immediately picked up a piece and gave it to him, saying, "Eat up, if you like it, then eat it to your heart's content."
Don't worry, I won't find you smelly!
Xin Sihua glanced at Xin Siding, who looked away.
Xin Sihua couldn't resist and took two bites.
Then he continued to feed it to Chenxi.
Shen Xi could easily see through the trickery involved.
After deliberately eating one, he said to Shinsding, "Thank you so much for treating me to the most delicious fruit."
However, I haven't had enough. Could I have another one?
Shinsdin's body trembled slightly.
Finally, gritting his teeth, he ordered another durian to be brought over.
The way he looked so heartbroken was as if his beloved woman had been taken away by someone else.
Chenxi asked, "Your Majesty, I wonder what the yield of this fruit is?"
Xin Siding was straightforward: "The yield is not high. We don't grow this fruit here. It is said to be transported from faraway Foda."
Its price is comparable to gold.
"Where is Fodar?"
"I don't know, but according to the merchants, it was obtained from a group of colonists. The quantity is small, and the price is high."
I only have two here right now.
"It was all given to Her Majesty the Queen."
Judging from Xinsiding's previous expression, Shenxi guessed that this thing must be rare and expensive.
But to my surprise, there were only two left.
There were only two of them, and they were both used to entertain her.
It seems that Shin Siding is quite an honest person.
Chenxi waved his hand and ordered someone to fetch durians from the boat.
When two large boxes and more than a dozen durians were brought over, Xin Siding jumped up.
The key point is that these dozen or so durians are more than twice the size of the two from Xinsiding.
