In the reception room refurbished by Anpu, Tang Mo had finished his work and took the time to meet two envoys who had come from afar.
The two anxious dwarves sat on the sofa and immediately stood up when Tang Mo entered the room, bowing in greeting and said, "Great King of Tang Country, your admirers convey their sincerest greetings to you."
Tang Mo made a rather casual gesture, then proceeded to the seat of honor, sat down, and crossed his legs, "Gentlemen, the Ice Cold Empire is not close by. You didn't come all this way just to greet me, did you?"
"Your Majesty jests," the leading envoy from the Ice Cold Empire said with an awkward laugh, hurriedly waving his hands to explain, "Of course not, or rather, not just to greet you."
Tang Mo recognized this dwarf envoy; they had met before in Brunas. Back then, Tang Mo was still a merchant, and this gentleman was a representative of the Ice Cold Kingdom.
