Chapter 1567 Persuading the Envoy to Return

The people that Nanny Qi sent to chase Ye Zifen and the others ultimately failed to catch up with them.

When he arrived, Ye Zifen and Zhang Gaoyi had already entered the palace.

The presence of foreign envoys in the palace is related to the reputation of the country.

No matter how anxious the people sent by Nanny Qi were, they didn't dare to act recklessly here and could only worry outside.

He was waiting anxiously at the door, and finally had no choice but to spend a few copper coins to ask someone nearby to go to Princess Fuxia's mansion to tell her.

On the other side, Ye Zifen and Zhang Gaoyi were standing in the magnificent palace, facing an overseas envoy couple with stubborn looks on their faces.

The other people who followed were sent away by the couple.

In fact, the ones who least wanted to leave were the couple in front of them, because the others had already thought about going back. After all, they were only following orders from the king, and they were not as tough as these two.

Ye Zifen looked at them and said slowly, "You have been in Daxia for a long time. Have you almost completed your mission as an envoy? Otherwise..."

Before Ye Zifen could finish her words, their good friend interrupted her impatiently, "Ye, you are wrong! We have come from afar with our country's sincerity and expectations. Now that we have not yet achieved our goal, how can we give up so easily? If we leave now, wouldn't it be a betrayal of our king's trust? It would be difficult to explain to your emperor, let alone to the elders and fellow villagers in our hometown!"

I saw this friend clenching his fists, his expression was excited, and his eyes were firm and burning.

Although he had only been in Daxia for a short time, his tone and choice of words were completely different from before, and his improvement was so rapid that it was astonishing.

Even Ye Zifen couldn't help but marvel at it.

However, despite his passionate words, he still did not dare to look Ye Zifen and Zhang Gaoyi in the eye.

After all, at this moment, everyone present knew it clearly in their hearts - he was feeling very guilty!

The righteous and powerful words just spoken were nothing but a bluff.

I'm afraid even he himself finds it hard to believe this nonsense.

Ye Zifen and Zhang Gaoyi looked at each other and both tried to hide the smiles that they could hardly suppress.

Ye Zifen took a long time to calm down before she sighed softly, took a step forward, and said softly, "Messenger, we understand your persistence. But the situation in Daxia is complicated now, and it's not that we don't want to be on good terms with your country. Hasn't our court discussed how to trade goods in the future? The emperor has already said that the two countries should be on good terms and exchange what they have. Now something bad may happen in the Daxia Palace, and you may be in a lot of trouble here."

Ye Zifen's voice was gentle yet firm, carrying a reassuring power.

Her eyes were clear and bright, revealing hope and confidence for the future.

Ye Zifen looked at her good friend in front of her, a hint of worry and helplessness flashing in her eyes.

She knew that her friend had been looking forward to this mission since a long time ago, and she also understood that he did not want to go back now, but the current situation was indeed a bit tricky.

The other party immediately became unhappy when he heard this. He said, "I don't mind being bothered. I also want to live in Daxia for a long time in the future!"

Ye Zifen frowned and said seriously, "The current conditions obviously do not allow it. It's like sowing seeds on uncultivated land. It's difficult to harvest full fruits. Wait until we have resolved the matter here and you have given the king an explanation, then it won't be too late to come over, right?"

Zhang Gaoyi also said immediately: "Everyone, if you stay in Daxia, it will only make things more complicated. The friendship between the two countries is important for the long term. If we destroy the overall situation because of a momentary selfish thought, it will be more trouble than gain. The friendly relationship between your country and Daxia is based on mutual respect and mutual understanding. Now just because of our selfishness, if we continue to let the relationship remain deadlocked, it will only cause a rift between the two countries."

Zhang Gaoyi's voice was steady and powerful, and his words contained deep concern and importance attached to the relationship between the two countries.

He knew that both sides needed to remain calm and rational and not be swayed by personal emotions.

Seeing this, the other party softened his attitude, looked at Ye Zifen bitterly, and said, "Ye, I haven't stayed in Da Xia long enough! Give us some more time! The adults in your Ministry of Rites didn't say anything, why can't you let us play for a while longer?"

Ye Zifen shook her head gently, as if trying to get rid of all her worries.

She took a deep breath and continued, "I know you have great expectations for this mission, but the current situation is not optimistic. The Ministry of Rites did not say anything because they regarded you as foreign envoys. We are friends. We cannot let you fall into danger. Moreover, you have been out for quite a long time. You have been in the capital for more than a month, on the road for more than a month, and at the seaside for more than half a month, not to mention the time at sea. It is really a long time when you calculate it."

Ye Zifen didn't want anyone else to experience the situation that Zhang Gaoyi and the others had gone through back then.

Their king might not care about them, but what about their children?

There was deep concern and worry in Ye Zifen's tone; she was worried that her good friend would be in danger because of her insistence.

Ye Zifen said: "Think about the children at home. Are they always worried about you?"

At this time, the overseas female envoy frowned tightly and fell into deep thought.

She reached out and grabbed her husband who was about to continue speaking, and said solemnly: "Husband, if we delay and don't return home any longer, not only will our children back home worry, but it may also cause their status to plummet!"

After hearing these words, the overseas envoy who had been hesitant finally stopped his inner struggle and looked at his wife with a heart full of apology.

The female envoy gently patted her husband's hand to comfort him, and then turned her gaze to Ye Zifen and Zhang Gaoyi.

She sighed deeply, bit her lip, and said as if she had made up her mind: "Okay, in that case, let's follow your arrangements. We will pack our bags immediately and prepare to leave for home."

Upon hearing this, Ye Zifen immediately stood up and saluted the two envoys in the most standard Daxia etiquette to express his respect and gratitude.

The two envoys had been in Daxia for some time and were well aware of Ye Zifen's current status and position, so they hurriedly returned the gift to express their gratitude.

Seeing this, Zhang Gaoyi, who was standing by, also stood up, clasped his hands together, with a clear and respectful light flashing in his eyes.

After the envoy finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the room, called the other envoys in, and informed them of his decision to leave.

When everyone heard this, they felt relieved, relaxed smiles appeared on their faces, and they began to actively prepare for the return trip.
