บท 441: Negotiation

The queen and ministers of the Hui Kingdom felt so nervous that they decided to adopt an unconventional measure: inviting the Dragon King to take part in an one-on-one negotiation with the queen inside the Council Chamber.

Even in Western Region, which was a not very conservative place, it was not appropriate for a young queen to be alone with a young lord from a foreign country—such meeting were bound to invite lots of gossip. However, all of the ministers of the Hui Kingdom seemed to firmly believe that their queen was a decent woman. They insisted on inviting the Dragon King for the private negotiation. If Long Fanyun had not reminded them that no one was allowed to get within five steps of the Dragon King, they would have worked together to physically push the young lord into the Council Chamber.
