"The envoys from the State of Xian, pay their respects to the East Palace!"

At the moment Jin Xueyuan led her diplomatic mission members into the East Palace, the official in charge of chanting at the Ministry of Rites proclaimed loudly.

Of course, a specialized position should be handled by a professional. This chant resonated with power and clarity, its bright voice almost piercing the heavens, echoing and spreading throughout the entire East Palace.

The sound of silk and bamboo, qin and dizi harmonizing, the clapper chimes resounding, the solemn, dignified yet majestic Donggong seemed to awaken.

Walking on the specially laid soft and thick carpet, Jin Xueyuan couldn't help but sigh that Tiger Lao Wei was still powerful.

Though the Qin Empire was showing its age, like an elderly man beset by numerous and significant problems, even a dying camel is bigger than a horse.

No matter how the Qin Empire declined, it was absolutely incomparable to its own Xian Dynasty.

Even if the Xian Dynasty brought in artisans and scholars from within the Qin Empire, transported materials, and meticulously recreated a city with the same scale and layout as the capital, there's simply no comparison between the historical weight of the two.

This time, the banquet was held in Kangtai Hall of the East Palace. This hall was originally used by the Crown Prince to entertain guests and enjoy himself. It had all the necessary facilities and was of a suitable size and standard for the occasion.

Just as the Xuan Dynasty envoy's group gradually entered, Li Chen was still in a side room of the Xizheng Hall speaking with Su Zhen Ting.

The relationship between the two seems to be that of master and servant, but it is more like that of elder and junior. In the future, when Su Jinpa marries into the East Palace, they will become husband and wife in reality. The familial bond coupled with political cooperation makes their relationship incredibly solid.

Therefore, Li Chen was very casual.

He leaned against the soft couch, his legs crossed, one arm resting on the tea table, and the other hand flipping over a chess piece, his expression grave.

On the contrary, Su Zhenting opposite him sat upright but with a relaxed expression.

"Lost!"

Li Chen dejectedly tossed the chess piece onto the board, casually scattering the pieces, and grumbled, "Previously, I always believed that hard work could make up for lack of talent. However, now I have to admit that in some aspects, natural aptitude is more important than diligence."

Su Zhen Ting laughed and said, "Your Highness's invention of this thing called a military flag, which integrates the army formations onto the chessboard, allowing them to fight each other, calculating their psychological games, is indeed interesting."

Li Chen smiled and said, "It's just a game for leisure. This chess can be used for entertainment, but it's hard to reach the hall of elegance. It's enough for a general in charge of a part to play with it. General Su, who strategizes like this, should still play Go."

Su Zhenting nodded and said: "Go has nineteen lines, with intricate mysteries, countless variations, and indeed more potential for exploration than these flags. However, not everyone is suitable for Go. In my opinion, these flags are more helpful to generals than Go."

That's it, many people, they should just be in their place and do what they are supposed to do. They aim too high and usually don't end up well.

At this moment, a loud chanting sound can be heard from outside.

The envoy from the Xian Dynasty arrived.

Li Chen stood up and said, “General, you go first. This palace will go see an old friend and be there shortly.”

Su Zhending didn't ask the prince who he had met on this important day when he was about to receive the envoy from Xian Dynasty. However, he didn't ask further, got up and bowed, then turned and left.

After Su Zhen Ting left, Li Chen saw a palace maid carrying the Crown Prince's embroidered dragon robe and waved his hand: "Put it aside first. This Palace will go out in plain clothes first and change later. You all stay here."

After saying that, Li Chen excitedly went to Kangtai Hall.alities."Guan Zhiwei forcefully straightened his bent waist and asked Li Chen in confusion, "Lord, to which part of my humble home do you wish to go""Come on in, shouldn't we welcome guests" Li Chen s...
