Finally, once there were no more officials stepping forward to flatter the Emperor, no more dancers coming up to perform, and even the music had halted, Jiu E quickly rose and walked over, then knelt down on one knee: "Your Majesty Xuanhuang, I sincerely apologize for my earlier behavior."
"Envoy Jiu, you are too kind. I have already forgotten about it."
Jiu E's mouth twitched slightly, You forgot but don't give me food? However, he quickly showed a grateful expression: "Your Majesty Xuanhuang, you are wise. So, shall we discuss the peace agreement now?"
Only then did Emperor Xuanjing look up, smiling: "Of course."
Jiu E suddenly felt like he had fallen into a trap. Could it be that the other side had been waiting for him to apologize all along? But no matter what, since the other side agreed, it could now be discussed. Just as he looked up, he found Emperor Xuanjing getting up, and he hurriedly stood as well.
