Alright, the pressure is back on Comrade Gu Changsha.
To agree or not to agree, this requires so contemplation.
Gu Changsha sat in his office, smoking several cigarettes.
Like a king's dignity, it is tested in the face of such a letter.
He is the ruler of a vast empire; his daughter, Zhao Yan, is like gold.
Marry her to a small country's president like Chi Zhongshui? Besides, in a few years, this guy won't even be president.
If this isn't an arranged marriage, what is it?
What does an arranged marriage an?
In ancient tis, people sent their daughters for arranged marriages only when they were afraid of others.
For a man, this is a kind of insult.
Back in the day, there was an Emperor who couldn't bear to part with his daughter or sister, so he recruited a woman from the populace to pose as his daughter and sent her for an arranged marriage.
Eventually, before she departed, the Emperor t this daughter once, as if to say farewell.
He found that this daughter was extrely beautiful, like a deity, and he truly couldn't bear to part with her.
But the foreign delegation for the marriage had arrived, and they had seen the princess for the arranged marriage, so the Emperor couldn't go back on his word, right?
After the marriage delegation left, the Emperor turned around and executed the official responsible for finding the daughter, venting his anger.
Of course, after the princess married, she did bring lasting peace to the border. Her na? Go search on Baidu, haha...
From the Emperor's perspective, arranged marriage is disgraceful and regretful.
Now, Gu Changsha feels the sa way.
The power of the nation is so disproportionate; sending his daughter away is like losing the nation's dignity.
But on second thought, the Wale Republic, despite other shortcomings, has an impressive economic growth. In a few short years, it's risen to the ranks of developed countries.
Its future prospects are truly boundless, rich beyond imagination!
If his daughter married over, well, she could indeed accomplish sothing, like...
Gu Changsha's eyes lit up slightly.
The Gu family, now the world's number one family. Previously, when Gu Changsha wasn't in power, their wealth was only average, right?
But once he rose to power, in less than two years, their wealth accumulated to be among the world's top three.
And most of it is overseas assets.
However, Zhao Yan, who had spoken with Chi Zhongshui, didn't like business at all, just loved dancing, sigh...
Thinking of this, Gu Changsha rembered his deceased son-in-law, Liu Zhizhong.
Oh, Zhao Yan had ntioned she was Liu Zhizhong's wife; though he sacrificed himself, she fell in love with him and would not marry again.
Regarding Liu Zhizhong's past, Gu Changsha had gathered a lot of information.
For such matters, obtaining information was easy for him.
Liu Zhizhong was indeed outstanding, though so of his actions weren't favored by the top tier, he was undeniably a fine young official.
Vaguely, Gu Changsha still had so regrets. If Liu Zhizhong could have accepted his guidance, perhaps he could have inherited the legacy in the future.
Such a Liu Zhizhong was deserving of his daughter, Zhao Yan, though it was indeed a regret.
Of course, now Gu Changsha has his own successor candidates, not to be discussed for now.
Therefore, Gu Changsha put away all his entanglents and contradictions and made a decision inwardly.
Since Chi Zhongshui had such an idea, then let it happen, let Zhao Yan visit!
After all, Zhao Yan had only the deceased Liu Zhizhong in her heart; she certainly wouldn't fancy Chi Zhongshui.
Thus, the state affairs are settled, and the private matters are dealt with.
My daughter doesn't fancy you; surely, you can't have anything else to say?
On this side, when Liu Zhizhong learned that Gu Changsha agreed to bring his daughter for a visit, he was secretly excited. He even agreed not to release news of his impending visit to the Wale Republic.
Only, Gu Changsha's wife was unwell and unsuitable for long-distance flights, so she wouldn't accompany them. That was understandable and unimportant.
After the diplomatic arrangents were settled, each side began preparing for this vital visit from Gu Changsha.
Gu Changsha naturally inford the Southern Xiang Family, asking the Family Head to accompany them to the Wale Republic and contribute to the country.
Upon receiving the news, Xiang Wenhua naturally had to agree, and his heart was filled with unparalleled excitent.
Xiang Wenhua could truly feel Liu Zhizhong's strength, able to protect the Xiang family with a simple gesture—a truly admirable feat.
Concerning Liu Zhizhong, he knew his sister Xiang Wenxin would accompany them because she was enamored with Liu Zhizhong.
As for his daughter Xiang Qingqing, Xiang Wenhua was a bit concerned, because she was currently pursuing her master's degree in finance in England.
Xiang Qingqing loved Liu Zhizhong with unwavering determination, a fact Xiang Wenhua was well aware of!
But he couldn't allow both his daughter and his sister to follow Liu Zhizhong, right?
Xiang Wenhua was a bit troubled, thinking it was laughable yet worthwhile.
Ultimately, he decided to only bring his sister Xiang Wenxin along.
Tang Zhi, too, received a personal call from Gu Changsha, asking him to accompany them on their visit to the Wale Republic.
Tang Zhi was, of course, excited; accompanying the ruler on a trip signified trust. Moreover, he and Chi Zhongshui had previously agreed that he would accompany Gu Changsha on this visit.
Indeed, President Chi was sincere!
Subconsciously, Tang Zhi felt even more fond of Chi Zhongshui.
Of course, he shared the relevant situation with Grand Steward Hamuer.
Hamuer, by his side, worked diligently, understanding politics and human nature thoroughly; many things didn't require Tang Zhi to worry.
Tang Zhi was truly satisfied with President Chi's recomndation of this Grand Steward, even feeling that Chi Zhongshui's judgnt was incredibly sharp, accurately discerning people's abilities!
Little did he know, few in this world understood Hamuer as Liu Zhizhong did.
Hamuer was thrilled to see his old leader again, while his wife and son had settled in Kachin, enabling them to reunite!
Day by day, back at Great East Pot, many preparations were being made for the upcoming visit.
After all, this was a significant event, with many details to arrange.
Also, such a visit plan wasn't publicly announced in Great East Pot because the world was watching!
The world is a big stage, with actors and spectators; those who understand, understand—many political matters are left unsaid. If you openly announce it, at the sa ti, Gu Changsha visits both Wale and Evil Luo, won't it be exposed? One has to be fake, right? Not convincing to others.
Evil Luo Country naturally knew that Gu Changsha was visiting both Wale and attending their national foundation ceremony, so they called to verify if Great East Pot's itinerary was incorrect.
From Great East Pot, of course, the reply was: Please rest assured, Brother Evil Luo; this ti, the one visiting Wale is rely our substitute. The true self will definitely be at Evil Luo, attending the glorious 160th anniversary of the founding. Our friendship is unbreakable. It's just that Comrade Gu Changsha caught a cold recently, with mild pneumonia and discomfort in his eyes; at that ti, he'll have to wear a mask and sunglasses.
The Evil Luo People believed it.
