"For the first time we meet, respected king. I am Novna Ivanova Pandragen, the messenger of the British Empire. I am here to express my most sincere greetings to you on behalf of the Royal Royal Family of England. At the same time, I am very grateful. You are willing to take time out of the heavy and busy government affairs to receive me, a friendly messenger from afar." Novna explained her meaning in a straightforward tone.

"It's okay. Since you are a friend from afar, please sit as you like to be my VIP." Xia stretched out his hand and signaled that the other party could sit.

Novna walked to a seat with a step forward, and a guard walked forward and gently pulled the bench. When Novna was about to sit down, he gently pushed the bench forward, which happened to be where Novna sat down. The most troublesome thing about receiving the nobles and negotiating with these envoys was not the negotiation process, but the long period of etiquette before and after the negotiation began. Because these etiquette things are generally recognized by all countries as measuring standards that mark a country's level of civilization, those who claim to be civilized empires will always come up with many strange rules to limit their freedom and thus show the so-called civilized side to outsiders.

After sitting down, Novna did not negotiate immediately, but sat in her seat without saying anything or saying anything. She was waiting for Shaya, who was the owner of this place, to speak. This is an unfamous rule in aristocratic negotiations. During the negotiations, the party who came to visit should not speak before the owner spoke first, otherwise it would be regarded as disrespect for the local owner. The other party has the right to drive this guy who doesn't even understand basic etiquette out of his doorstep.

So Novna, who was used to the aristocrats, continued to sit quietly, waiting for Shaya to speak in person before starting the formal negotiations.

However, what is funny is that Xia Ya, who was sitting in the master's position, didn't know this at all. He always thought that as long as the other party came, the two parties could officially start after showing mutual respect. But he knew that the other party had not said a word after sitting down, as if he came here either for negotiation or for a while. This move made Xia Ya very confused.

What's going on? Why didn't she say a word? Is this a psychological tactic?

Xia Ya was calm on the surface, but she was doing it quickly in her mind.

No, since she doesn't speak first, I can't speak first. These nobles are useless, but they are very familiar with the plot of others. Although I don't know what plans and conspiracies she has, I can't give her the opportunity to plot against me. Please remain silent for the time being, and wait until she speaks first and then take a look step by step.

So, the two fell into a strange silent look.

………………………………………

…………………

……………………

Xia Ya, who had been staring at her for more than two hours, rubbed her sore temples with a very unbearable expression.

He never thought that he would have no more endurance than fighting with Wen Hai in front of his table or fighting with countries that wanted to invade his territory. He would not have been more endurance than staring at each other with a female noble. His sour eyes made Xia Ya unable to use his head to lower his head to wipe away the tears that had overflowed from his eyes with his fingers, and then quickly raised his head and thought that nothing had happened.

"Ha!" A chuckle broke the silent room.

Xia Ya turned her head and saw Pandragan quietly covering her mouth with one hand, looking at herself with a smile. Her pretty face was not malice or calculating, but just expressed the extremely simple feeling of laughing out because she felt funny. Of course, the nobles are all a group of big names who are good at acting, so whether this woman really laughed out because she was funny, or deliberately lowering Xia Ya's defense psychology is worth considering.

But no matter what, since the silence between the two was broken, then Xia Ya was embarrassed to pretend that she didn't hear her and kept quiet.

"Ahem, Miss Pandragian. Since you said you came on behalf of the royal nobles in England, then I can just discuss what you want to pass on with me as King Yuser?" Xia Ya coughed twice and covered up the embarrassment that he had just made a fool of himself, and then changed the topic and started formal negotiations.

Seeing that the other party had officially started negotiations, Novna's smile quickly faded and gradually became rigorous. Because of her serious face, her deep black eyes looked particularly bright, and the wit and sharpness hidden inside were fully displayed in front of Xia Ya at this moment. This is the look of a truly belonging to a person who has been mingling among the nobles for many years.

"The respected King of Prun, just like your knight loves you. I also love my king deeply, but no matter how deep or loyal you are, you cannot replace the majesty of the king. So please forgive my rudeness. The limit I can represent is me. If these words offend you, I am willing to bear your anger with everything..."

A cunning woman, every word she says is not leaking, and does not give others the opportunity to quibble. She is using this sentence to test Xia Ya, testing Xia Ya's aura and vision. Ru Nuo is a person with a small vision. She is confident that she can blind his eyes with temporary interests. If she is a person with a big vision and broad vision, she is willing to use a period of pain to exchange for the trust of this person, and then everyone will slowly calculate the other party. The war in the political arena cannot win like the real battlefield, and the loss is lost. The winner and loss determined in a moment cannot determine who is the real winner.

In the political arena, every minute and every second, the other party is very likely to make a big comeback and completely destroy the situation you have worked hard to set up. Politicians pay attention to calculation and patience. The first thing an excellent politician needs to learn is to abandon anger and entangle the immediate interests, and use any point to maximize the benefits of themselves, whether for something that is about to get or something that is to be recovered in the future.

"Forget it! My heart is not so narrow that I can't even pass a drop of water." Xia Ya reached out to stop Pandragan from getting up and apologizing. Anyway, both herself and the other party knew very well that there would be no punishment left to the other party as an excuse. The woman in front of her was like the harmless smile she had just shown, and she was extremely hypocritical.

But this alone could not stump Chara. Chara leaned forward and put his hands under the table to support his chin. He said, "Ms. Pandragian, as an envoy of another country, came to our country for negotiations. Have you forgotten the most basic things? These are the basic stones that can support fair negotiations between us. Without them, you have no right to talk to me equally..."

"Please say," Pandraggan said, and a beautiful smile.

Ignoring the other party's smile that tried to confuse him, Charia stretched out two fingers: "First, the two countries must conduct fair negotiations on behalf of their monarchs' intentions, otherwise any agreement reached during the period will not be fairly proven. That is to say, you can turn against each other. Second, if you represent King Yuser, the Lord of Great Britain, then who do you come to negotiate with me in the name of? Don't forget, in another fifteen hours I will go to the inland Ireland to negotiate with your official diplomats, and I can tell him the story of a woman who meets me privately and conspires with some ulterior motives..."

Chara stared at the other party's attacks using language to try to disintegrate the other party's strength and showed a trace of weakness. "Since you don't represent King Yuser, you also say that you represent the royal royal family in England. You'd better explain clearly which side you are? What do you want to talk about when you want to see me? I don't have much patience to play with a mere woman, not to mention that this is not what I'm good at."

"Please be careful, respectful king. It is not worthy of praise to lose temper with a woman, let alone this woman is an unarmed weak woman." I want to press harder step by step with a little impatient step than Xia Ya, Pandragan said softly. "Since you want to know which force I represent and why I want to have a secret talk with you, then please let me explain now?"

Pandraghan smiled at Chara and asked if he could explain his doubts about King.

“………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Just like Charles, Pandragan also extended two fingers like an imitation and explained: "First, first of all, the party I represent? This starts with the division of our overall system in Great Britain. Although Great Britain is the king on the surface, there are actually two power institutions that truly rule the entire Great Britain. They are the nobles' Councils representing civil and official elections, and the royals that hold military sovereignty. One is responsible for internal rectification and the other is responsible for external strategies. The royal family cannot interfere in the Council without authorization, and the Councils cannot inflict the army. Therefore, within Great Britain, two envoys will be sent at the same time, one represents the interests of the royal family and the other represents the interests of the Councils. However, because it is not in line with the interests of the nobles, the general royal family represents regular envoys, and the one who reviews the Councils can only become secret envoys..."

Charia nodded. The management model inside Great Britain was a bit similar to Prun's militarized management. The nobles were responsible for the things in the team and the guardian Knights group was responsible for external decision-making. The two were balanced and this tacit understanding could not be broken without authorization. As for the self who stood above both, Prun was the highest point in everything.

"That is, you are not representing King Yuser. But those nobles of the Council?"

"As you expected, the wise king."

Xia Ya smiled. This woman would really increase her favorability at any time. It would be a pity that she didn't become a civil servant.

"Then let me tell me what you want to get when you are not representing the king of a country, but rather representing the king's banner. What do you want to get when you come to Pulun? Let me make it clear first. I don't like this kind of trick-like negotiations. After all, I'm still an upright knight after all..." Xia Ya showed a wicked smile that she had never seen before.

"As you wish, my purpose is just as your expression is at this moment...... Dear King."
