When Yun Shang arrived at the main hall, there were already four women sitting there. Yun Shang Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

didn't look at them carefully, but went straight to the main seat and sat down.

Seeing this, the four women looked at each other for a moment, and then bowed to Yun Shang in a

hurry. "Greetings, your majesty."

Yun Shang nodded and looked at the four women carefully from left to right.

When Liu Wenan mentioned them before, Yun Shang thought they were the wives of the royal

members of the State of Youyue and the State of Yihai.

But now, she knew that she was probably wrong. Judging from their hairstyle, only one of them had

been married.

The four all had outstanding appearance, which made Yun Shang vigilant.

"Arise." Yun Shang smiled, "Have a seat."

After the four of them sat down, Yun Shang smiled and said, "I heard that you came from countries far

away from the State of Xia. You must have had a hard journey, right?"

The only married woman among the four smiled and replied in a low voice, "It's not too hard. From our

continent to here, many caravan have already walked many times in advance, and the road is quite

calm."

"That's good." Yun Shang nodded, "I don't know your names and identities..."

The woman replied in a low voice, "I'm Gong Sijia, from the State of Youyue. I'm the wife of Prince Ming

Yue."

"Oh, you are a consort princess."

"This is Ling Lanyu, the eighth princesses of our country. This is Qian Yutong, the fourth princess of the

State of Yihai. And this is Qian Jinyu, Princess Si An of the State of Yihai. "

They stood up and bowed to Yun Shang when they were being introduced.

Yun Shang looked at them with a smile, "I have never traveled across the sea, and I know little about

the other side of the sea. But when I look at you, I think the women there must all be very beautiful."

"Thank you for your praise, your majesty. In terms of appearance, none of us can compete with you."

With a bigger smile on her face, she said, "the Empress, if you are interested, you can visit our

continent in the future."

With a faint smile on her face, Yun Shang said, "I'll go there when I have a chance."

Then she changed the topic, "I have never seen the things you sent here before. They are all exquisite

and interesting. I like them very much."

"Since you have sent me so many gifts, I've also prepared some gifts for you. I've heard that every time

your trade groups come to the State of Xia, the most you bought are tea, silk, porcelain, embroidery,

etc. I think these things may be less in your countries, so I've asked people to prepare some. "

Yun Shang raised her hand and clapped. Several servants came in with boxes.

The servant put the box on the ground and bent over to open it.

Yun Shang smiled and said, "These are the best things in our country. They are tribute. They should be

much better than the things you bought."

"Show it to the guests."

As soon as Yun Shang finished her words, the maid took out a piece of cloth from a box and unfolded

it.

"This is Moon Brocade. The most special feature of this brocade is its brightness. Look, it seems as if it

is coated with a layer of moonlight, so it is called Moon Brocade. The clothes made of the brocade are

naturally dazzling, and the brocade also feels good. It is warm, smooth and comfortable to touch."

The servants brought the Moon Brocade to them. The four women's eyes were indeed filled with

admiration. "The luster is indeed extremely beautiful. I have never seen such a dazzling brocade."

Yun Shang smiled and said, "In addition to the Moon Brocade, there is another kind made of all kinds

of colorful silk threads, which is very beautiful and elegant."

Hearing Yun Shang's words, the servants took out another kind of brocade for them to see.

"Besides the fabric, there is also tea. The yield of good tea leaves is less than dozens of pounds a

year, so I have prepared all kinds of tea leaves for you. You can take them back and taste slowly. "

"I've prepared several vases. The porcelain is fragile, so it's not appropriate to move it too frequently. I'll

send them directly to the post later."

"By the way, there is embroidery..." Yun Shang's smile became brighter. "You are all girls. You should

be interested in embroidery..."

The servants took them out and lined them up in a row.

"I have chosen several kinds of embroidery I like. From left to right, they are double-sided embroidery,

golden silk feather embroidery, carved embroidery, lock embroidery, gauze embroidery..."

The four women were all stunned.

Yun Shang smiled and asked servants to put the gifts away. "Do you like the gifts I prepared?"

The four looked at each other. "Of course we like them very much. Before this, many trade groups in

our country scrambled to go to the State of Xia to buy special products, because the goods in the State

of Xia are very exquisite and we have never seen them in our country. The goods transported back are

very popular."

Yun Shang nodded with a smile, "I'm glad you like it."

"Recently, Wanshou Festival is coming. The city is very lively. The vendors from all over the country

gather here, and they will bring the special products from their places. There will be more and more

vendors selling the special products of the State of Xia on the street. You can go around to enhance

your understanding of us. If you have anything you like, you can tell me. At that time, I will ask

someone to prepare some for you. "

Gong Sijia replied with a smile.

Yun Shang asked the servants to carry the things out of the palace, and then said, "You can have a

taste of the tea I prepared for you. Don't be too restrained."

They answered in a hurry, but they were still a little nervous. They looked at each other for several

times before Gong Sijia said. "I heard that there are other two countries on the continent, the State of

Ning and the State of Yelang. I also heard that your majesty was a princess of the State of Ning. I

wonder how the State of Ning is compare to the State of Xia? Is it worth a trip? "
