This time, the Indian team was here to preach the teachings of Buddhism. Gong Dai did not deny it and allowed them to reach the capital.
Along the way to Shangjing, the Indian team witnessed the wealth and culture of the Dai Yu State. It was completely different from what they had imagined.
As their civilization was older than the mainland, they had looked down on it before they came. But now, they only felt a deep sense of inferiority. Of course, the ones who felt inferior were the officials who accompanied them. The eminent monks who had Buddhism in their hearts did not show it.
When they arrived, Gong Dai received them. As there were still Buddhists in the Dai Yu State, Gong Dai took the opportunity to give them some face.
When they saw Gong Dai, they were very surprised!
Along the way, they had seen many people in power, but this was the first time they saw someone as young and handsome as Gong Dai.
Moreover, his dignified aura and his domineering manner made him worthy of being the ruler of a powerful country in the mainland!
Everyone nodded in their hearts and spoke of their purpose for coming. The one who spoke was the official. What was surprising was that he spoke well in the Dai Yu State.
After introducing himself and the others, the man named Woox went straight to the point. "Honorable Holy Lord of the Dai Yu State, I am here to preach the teachings of Buddhism, enlighten the people, and build Buddhist temples and pagodas …"
Gong Dai did not deny it. This group of people had come from afar, so it was not a big deal for him to build a few Buddhist temples for them.
"Also, I have brought our seeds and books to show my sincerity. I hope the Holy Lord will not reject them."
Gong Dai was quite happy about this.
When they saw that Gong Dai was not as intimidating as before, and that his expression had softened, the group of people heaved a sigh of relief. It seemed like this was an easy-going ruler.
Just as they were about to say something, they heard a woman's voice coming from afar.
"Gong Dai! Gong Dai! "
Everyone looked over and saw a woman in a pink dress running over. Her face was delicate and she was in high spirits. Her cheerful voice showed how happy she was.
His whole body was like a warm cloud, floating over.
Seeing so many people in front of her, not only did they look very representative, there were also a few monks. GongYimo immediately knew that they were from India, but she was used to being casual. After nodding her head and greeting them, she rushed towards Gong Dai.
If it were anyone else, no matter how much they doted on her, they would tell her to pay attention to the occasion. After all, in this era, spoiling a woman too much was a disgraceful thing.
But Gong Dai … Everything he did was for the sake of his Royal Sister. How could he bear to see her suffer?
"What happened?"
Gong Dai asked softly. Seeing GongYimo running with a flushed face, he hurriedly hugged her, fearing that she would trip.
GongYimo stuck out her tongue and her eyes lit up!
"It's all because of you. Recently, you've been elusive, so I had no choice but to come here and find you!"
Seeing how angry she was, Gong Dai's heart itched. He had been abstinent for a long time. Now that his Royal Sister was out of her "confinement period", could he …
Endure it a little longer, at least until the wedding …
The moment the couple met, they completely ignored everyone else. The monks frowned slightly but didn't say anything. The leading official, Wu Si, spoke with some dissatisfaction.
"Holy Lord of Dai Yu State, now is the time for discussion between the two countries. It's very inappropriate for your country to let a woman appear and disrupt the discussion."
Gong Dai glanced at him coldly. "She is this prince's wife, and she is as intelligent as her husband."
Unexpectedly, this made the other party even more dissatisfied. The man with the aquiline nose frowned. "Does this mean that your country allows women to receive education?"
Gong Dai raised his brows slightly. "Why not?"
"Of course not!" He said angrily. "Women should stay at home to give birth and take care of the household. A good girl with good character shouldn't expose herself to the outside world."
GongYimo raised her brows in displeasure. "Are you insulting me?"
That person said sternly, "This official is just stating facts."
He didn't understand. They had been to many small countries along the way, but the women there were very polite and knew their place.
He didn't expect that a powerful country like Dai Yu State would be so muddle-headed, so he couldn't help but advise.
"Holy Lord of Dai Yu State, you should stop this unwise behavior. An educated woman will develop a suspicious personality. This way, they won't be able to adjust themselves in a united family, and it will cause disharmony between the family and the country."
Gong Dai frowned, but before he could say anything, GongYimo couldn't help but laugh.
"So you're saying that you're blaming the women for the disharmony between the family and the country? Dare I ask, on what basis do you say that your way of thinking is right and our country's way of doing things is wrong? "
Wu Si didn't seem to expect GongYimo to be so clever. After all, the women he came into contact with were all timid and slow-witted.
"On the basis that I've been to 13 countries, the women of each country abided by the rules of etiquette as if they were subjects of the country."
In other words, only their country was different. Therefore, they were wrong.
GongYimo laughed again. "Perhaps this is the reason why they're poor and our country is rich!"
Her shameless words shocked the other party. This woman was actually attributing the country's wealth to herself?
Before he could say anything, GongYimo raised her brows and said, "Could it be that you've seen countries that are richer than ours on your way here? If so, I'll admit that what I said just now was wrong. "
Wu Si frowned. She really hadn't.
Seeing that his own man was being led by the nose, the other party's monk suddenly stepped forward and chanted a Buddhist prayer.
"Benefactress, please forgive him."
Unexpectedly, the leading monk, Dai Yu State, spoke even better. GongYimo's gaze fell on him and realized that he was a middle-aged man with a kind face and an ordinary appearance.
"What advice does the Great Master have for me?" GongYimo asked lazily.
"I don't dare to call myself a Master. This poor monk is in the Elementary Profound Realm and is just an ordinary monk. Benefactress's words are reasonable. We've offended you."
He spoke kindly and sincerely apologized.
However, GongYimo still felt that he was strange. Hearing his words, she said softly, "In that case, I'll forgive you. I hope you remember that some words are not to be spoken carelessly. Although you're here to spread the teachings, you should learn to respect and learn first."
Not only did they not listen to GongYimo's words, the man called Wu Si was even a little angry.
Gong Dai saw this and was already displeased with this group of people. As the saying goes, those who walk different paths cannot make plans together. It's better to send them away as soon as possible and let them go find Kim Yoon.
Wu Si was still angry at first, but when he thought of the important matter, he endured it. However, towards Gong Dai, he no longer had the respect he had before. A husband who couldn't even control his own woman was not worthy of respect. This was his philosophy.
