9:30 AM.
The gates of the Wanggan Embassy opened.
Two Hongqi sedans adorned with national flags slowly drove away.
At the gate.
Five cars from the National Guard and Dimang police had been waiting there.
The leading car belonged to Wen Min.
As the seven cars drove on the street, Chen Fang noticed the flags of Wanggan and Huaxia on the streetlamps, indicating that Badula valued today's ceremony.
At the entrance of the President's Mansion.
Senior officials from the Wanggan Ministry of Foreign Affairs lined up to welco them.
Because Qingxuan was injured.
This ti, Ning ng personally took on the translation work.
Though never having worked in diplomacy,
Chen Fang interacted with everyone politely and appropriately.
At exactly 10:00.
In the marble hall of the President's Mansion.
Chen Fang ascended the steps along the red carpet.
President Badula, dressed formally, awaited in the center. He first smiled and shook hands with Chen Fang, then Chen Fang handed the letter of credence to him.
Typically, the ceremony of presenting letters of credence involves multiple countries simultaneously.
But today was different.
Today it was only Huaxia, only Chen Fang.
After the ceremony ended,
Both sides engaged in friendly discussions and talks in front of the dia. Of course, the core content was not openly discussed.
After the entire process was completed,
the dia also left the scene.
Badula firmly shook Chen Fang's hand, speaking fluent Huaxia, "Ambassador Chen, I've heard about the matter with the Klo Clan. You handled it well under your coordination. I'm very satisfied. On behalf of the Wan Clan and the Klo Clan, I thank you for your efforts towards the unity of the Wanggan people."
"Your Excellency, may we talk sowhere else?"
Chen Fang asked.
Badula paused.
But still nodded.
Turning to signal to his aide,
he said, "Sure, the Huaxia people are friends of the Wanggan people. I believe we have much to discuss regarding cooperation."
The two then entered a reception room in the President's Mansion.
Chen Fang brought only Ning ng.
While Badula brought both Wen Min and Naiton.
Chen Fang also noticed that Naiton stared at him with anger, clearly still upset about the two incidents involving his son.
More importantly, Wen Min had ford an alliance with the Klo Clan.
This oppressed his power.
He was naturally displeased.
After sitting down according to the positions of host and guest,
Chen Fang got straight to the point, "Your Excellency, I mainly want to discuss the situation in the Wanbei Region with you today. As you may know, in the Wanbei Region..."
Before Chen Fang could finish,
Naiton rudely interrupted him, "Ambassador Chen, I'm sorry, but the Wanbei Region is part of Wanggan Country's territory. Your country always practices non-interference in other countries' internal affairs, so isn't it inappropriate for you to ntion the Wanbei Region?"
It was known for a long ti,
There were interests entangled between Badula and the three major families in Wanbei.
Apparently, Badula was also aware that Huaxia people would eventually bring up this topic with him. He kept smiling, nodding as he said, "General Naiton makes a good point. The Wanbei Region is not an area for Huaxia people to question, so there's no need to discuss this matter."
"Your Excellency, we Huaxia are not interested in the political landscape of the Wanbei Region, but the three major families in the Wanbei Region have caused severe harm to our Huaxia people, and at that point, we can't ignore it..."
"Ambassador Chen!"
Just like before.
Before the topic could expand, Naiton intended to interrupt him again.
This ti,
Chen Fang didn't indulge him.
With an authoritative face, he sternly said, "General Naiton, I am now representing Huaxia to engage in talks with your President. If you interrupt without reason again, it would damage the relations between the two countries and insult the Huaxia ambassador. If it happens again, I will issue a formal diplomatic protest against you, so please show so self-restraint."
No one expected Chen Fang to be so assertive.
Naiton suddenly didn't dare to speak.
He could only retract his arrogant expression.
Following that,
Chen Fang looked at Badula.
He said, "Your Excellency, I am very aware of your current political trajectory, and I know you lean towards iyana. As always, concerning other countries' internal affairs, we Huaxia do not interfere, but don't misjudge the good temper of Huaxia people. iyana may help you overthrow the Vijaya governnt, but we Huaxia can do the sa, and as a neighboring country, the thods we can employ are undoubtedly more nurous than iyana's. I believe Your Excellency understands this."
With these words,
Badula's expression darkened.
Ning ng got anxious.
She quickly nudged Chen Fang, indicating that those words shouldn't have been said, as it would only worsen diplomatic relations.
Chen Fang, however, was unfazed.
He faced Badula's slowly building anger.
"Ambassador Chen, are you threatening ?"
Badula asked through gritted teeth.
Chen Fang waved his hand.
He replied, "Your Excellency, this is Wanggan. I am on your land now. Do you think I can threaten you? Our Huaxia and Wanggan have always been friends, brothers who share hardships, and neighbours who support each other. I believe Your Excellency understands this. Walking with one leg is limping; walking with two legs is steadier. I hope Your Excellency considers carefully: do you really intend to reach a dead end with us Huaxia people?"
These words finally made Badula fall into contemplation.
In fact, the complexity of Wanggan's political situation was beyond imagination.
Although most territories were under governnt military control, many areas in Wanbei were still in the hands of local warlords and other ethnic ard forces.
Furthermore,
opposition ard forces had been continually harassing for years,
leaving the governnt military side exhausted and creating a significant internal threat to Badula.
Chen Fang's words demonstrated the determination of the Huaxia Governnt.
In other words, in matters like combating telecommunication fraud, they could either cooperate or had to cooperate; at that ti, no one could guarantee that new problems wouldn't arise.
Most crucially, Huaxia had such capabilities.
"Your Excellency, one more thing: the three major families in Wanbei are absolutely not loyal to you. They can help you ascend to the presidency now, but they can naturally help another person in the future. The existence of such people poses a threat to the stability of your regi, and for this reason alone, they should not exist."
Seeing Badula slightly wavering,
Chen Fang added another sentence.
During his indecision,
Naiton, not daring to speak to Chen Fang, leaned over to whisper a few things to Badula.
Suddenly enlightened, Badula asked, "Ambassador Chen, if we allow you to combat telecommunication fraud in the Wanbei Region, what benefits do we have?"
