Xu Xingye now regrets marrying Han Xinxin.

He and Han Xinxin tortured each other, but outside they had to pretend to be living in harmony.

Xu Xingye was unwilling to bring Han Xinxin to this banquet to welcome the Parthian envoys, but Han Xinxin was the only woman in his backyard, and there was no one else who could take him except her.

Xu Xingye knew that outsiders had been waiting to see the joke in Ninghou Mansion, so he could only pretend to be harmonious with Han Xinxin in front of others to silence those people.

However, Xu Xingzhi knew clearly that those people didn't say anything in front of his face, but they were definitely laughing at him secretly.

But there was nothing he could do. He felt that ever since Jiang Ling saw what happened between him and Han Xinxin, he had never felt better.

After some struggle, Han Xinxin got her wish and got on the carriage of Ninghou Mansion.

Although Mrs. Ninghou didn't like Han Xinxin, she still had to put on a show outside, otherwise where would the Ninghou Mansion's face be?

When Yu Han Xinxin followed Xu Xingye into the palace hall, she happened to see Jiang Yanming.

Han Xinxin's eyes were splitting, and she almost rushed straight to Jiang Yanming to fight for her life.

In Han Xinxin's view, Jiang Yanming must bear at least half of the responsibility for her current dissatisfaction.

Her position in Ninghou Mansion was very embarrassing. Xu Xingye did not want to see her, and the servants in the manor did not regard her as their master.

All she has is the title of a prince's concubine.

All this was thanks to Jiang Ling and Jiang Yanming. If their sisters hadn't teamed up to trap her, she could have married into the Ninghou Mansion with flying colors.

Instead of like now, when Xu Xingye vents his anger on her, her life in Ninghou Mansion would be worse than that of a servant.

Han Xinxin lowered her head, hiding the resentment and anger in her eyes.

When Xu Xingye saw Jiang Yanming, he almost tripped over himself.

"Ye'er, calm down. This is an important banquet to entertain the Anxi envoys. Jiang Yanming doesn't dare to mess around." Mrs. Ninghou comforted Xu Xingye.

But Jiang Yanming didn't care about the people in Ninghou Mansion, she didn't even pay attention to those people.

She was sitting with Ji Xingyun, chatting.

"Little princess, why are you here?"

As a princess, Ji Xingyun has her own seat.

"I'm not here to see you." Ji Xingyun pouted, "My father is going to entertain the Anxi envoys, so it's a pity that Brother Zisu can't come to this banquet."

Jiang Yanming shook his head. Judging from Jiang Zisu's current attitude towards the little princess, Ji Xingyun's courtship has a long way to go.

The second room of the Jiang family also came. Mr. Jiang was more or less an official, so he could naturally participate in the banquet for the Parthian envoys.

However, Jiang Jinnian didn't come, so he had to reflect at home.

Jiang Jinping stared at Jiang Yanming with his eyes like a poisonous snake, wanting to devour Jiang Yanming.

It is in sharp contrast to Jiang Jinping's little white flower appearance.

"Jinping, don't stare at that Jiang Yanming," the second lady reminded Jiang Jinping, "Your Majesty attaches great importance to this banquet, so don't cause trouble."

"I will pay attention."

Jiang Jinping was talking, but his eyes were locked on someone.

Jiang Jinping saw the man's eyes and smiled.

"Yes, it's you."

As officials of all sizes and their families expired one after another, the banquet officially began.

Jiang Zishuo entered the hall together with the Anxi envoy, attracting everyone's attention.

"The envoy of Anxi has met the Emperor of the Central Plains."

The leader of the Anxi envoys spoke poor Beixuan Kingdom Mandarin and saluted the emperor.

The emperor was very happy and said, "Without any courtesy, your country is willing to become an ally with Beixuan, which is extremely beneficial to both countries."

Unexpectedly, the leader of the Anxi envoys shook his head after hearing the emperor's words.

"No, no, no, His Majesty the Emperor of the Central Plains, we cannot be called allies yet."

The emperor was stunned for a moment, then the smile on his face gradually disappeared.

"What do you mean by this, envoy of peace? Is your country trying to amuse me?"

The atmosphere on the field gradually became more subtle, and the singing and dancing singers and dancers also stopped their performances.

The emperor narrowed his eyes and winked at Jiang Zishuo.

Jiang Zishuo whispered beside the Anxi envoy, "Ange, this is not what we promised before."

Ange, the Parthian envoy, laughed and said, "His Majesty the Emperor of the Central Plains, Mr. Jiang, you have misunderstood. The so-called alliance means that both parties to the alliance must show sincerity, right?"

The emperor's expression softened a little, and a smile appeared on his face again.

"The envoy is right, that's what it should be."

The Anxi envoy raised his hand and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, our country is willing to exchange a thousand high-quality horses for your country's tea and silk every year. What do you think of your Majesty?"

The emperor laughed and said, "Hahaha, the envoy is very sincere, and I naturally have no reason to disagree. As for how much tea and silk are exchanged, I will leave this matter to..."

When the emperor said this, he paused.

He originally wanted to leave the matter to Jiang Zishuo, but although Jiang Zishuo was the son of Jiang Guogong, he did not hold an official position.

Entrusting such an important task to Jiang Zishuo would inevitably arouse criticism.

At this time, Xu Youyun, Xu Youyu's father, the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, stood up.

"Your Majesty, this matter should be handled by the Ministry of Household Affairs, and I will handle it well."

"Then let Xu Aiqing handle it."

The emperor was in a very good mood after resolving the alliance issue with Parthia.

Then, Ange proposed some things, and the emperor, who was not too demanding, satisfied Parthia with a wave of his hand.

So Ange was also very satisfied and praised the emperor's wisdom.

Both parties got what they wanted, which can be described as a win-win situation.

After the negotiation, the Parthian envoys sat at their seats and began to enjoy the banquet prepared for them by Beixuan Kingdom.

During the banquet, people exchanged glasses of wine and exchanged cups, creating a happy scene.

Many people came to where the Parthian missionaries were sitting, wanting to inquire about information about the Parthian kingdom and build relationships with them.

Ange did not refuse anyone who came and socialized with all kinds of people.

In the middle of the banquet, Ange suddenly made a request.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, actually when I came to your country this time, I also brought a commission from the king of our country."

"Oh? What kind of commission is it? The Parthian envoy will tell you directly."

Ange took out a set of jade rings and said, "This thing was made by my wise man An Anxi in three years. His Majesty the King once issued a reward throughout the country. If anyone can unlock this thing, the most noble person will be given the reward."

The princess marries him."

"Let me guess, no one has been able to solve it?" the emperor said with a smile.

"Your Majesty the Emperor is wise. I have heard that there are many wise men in the Central Plains. Can Your Majesty the Emperor please allow the wise men to help us clarify our doubts?"

The emperor considered it for a moment and said, "Let me think about it."

A minister stood up and said, "Your Majesty, this is a great opportunity to show off the prestige of our country. The whole country of Parthia can't do it, but I, Beixuan, can do it. If you hesitate and don't do it, wouldn't it be a joke to others?"

The emperor nodded and agreed with the minister's statement.

"You are right. Envoy of Anxi, please show the jade ring to that gentleman."

The minister was dumbfounded.

Jiang Yanming was also dumbfounded when he saw the scene in front of him.

This plot looks a bit familiar.
