Chapter 1334: Everyone Can Only Wait

Editor: Henyee Translations

The Crown Prince maintained his usual elegance and grace as he smiled. “Great Qin abounds in resources, and you’ve traveled a long way, so consider me your hospitable host. Fear not, Vice Envoy Da Si, an array of dishes awaits you. I assure you won’t go hungry!”

Vice Envoy Da Si boisterously chortled, “The Crown Prince is indeed warm and generous. The Prince and other ministers are truly grateful! Crown Prince, I previously ordered three specific dishes I was eager to taste. Crown Prince granted my request, but I trust you haven’t forgotten.”

The response left Vice Envoy Da Si and his entourage momentarily stunned.

Similarly perplexed, the Fourth Prince and others, who were unaware of the situation, shared Vice Envoy Da Si’s bewilderment. What exactly was the Crown Prince implying? Was he genuinely prepared, or were these mere words?

Weren’t the East Palace’s officials meandering aimlessly, resembling headless flies? How was it possible that everything had been arranged in such a short span?

Unfortunately, the Crown Prince’s countenance remained genteel and poised, betraying no indication of his intentions.

Thus, everyone could only await the unfolding events.

Vice Envoy Da Si chuckled dryly, “Is that so? Since the Crown Prince has spoken, I shall eagerly anticipate it.”

The Crown Prince smiled and declared, “In that case, let the banquet commence!”

Elegantly attired palace maids approached with trays, serving dishes meticulously and orderly across the long tables before the guests. The small, exquisitely plated dishes were visually pleasing, and their aromatic scents filled the air.

However, despite four dishes being placed before each guest, the anticipated specialty dishes had yet to make an appearance.

Alongside the Crown Prince, officials raised their cups, offering toasts filled with well-wishes. The Crown Prince reciprocated with a smile, raising his own cup, and the entire gathering followed suit, toasting in harmony.

After a few pleasantries were exchanged, a couple of ministers promptly rose to their feet, cups in hand, and offered toasts filled with auspicious words. Consequently, the atmosphere brimmed with camaraderie.

In that moment, many attendees shared knowing glances, a collective understanding dawning upon them.

The Crown Prince appeared to be attempting to navigate through this predicament using a rather unorthodox method!

The Fourth Prince sneered with disdain, privately mocking the Crown Prince’s desperation. Employing such a pedestrian approach was truly beneath him.

Yet, the Fourth Prince did not dwell on it for long. If it involved a citizen of the Great Qin Empire, they would undoubtedly tread carefully, ensuring their actions were in their best interest. No subject of the empire would dare to humiliate the Crown Prince. However, Qingdi and the other foreign delegates were unlikely to let the matter slide so easily.

Nonetheless, the Crown Prince seemed to be out of options.

Unsurprisingly, Qingdi’s delegation held similar suspicions. Vice Envoy Da Si preempted any further pleasantries and, displaying impatience, called out, “Crown Prince, might we be graced with the dishes I ordered? I’m eager to savor them, hehe!”

Shao Yunduan and his cohorts inwardly sneered, convinced that the Crown Prince was toying with them, allowing them to taste the full bitterness of disappointment.

If that’s how anxious you are, then the Crown Prince certainly won’t disappoint you…

With a serene smile, the Crown Prince conceded, “Vice Envoy Da Si appears quite eager indeed. Very well, let us serve your requested dishes.”

As he concluded his words, a courtly eunuch, hands steady, presented a tray bearing a dish before Prince Nuo Nuo.
