After returning, the delegation gave Emperor An Tai a thick memorial, which made Emperor An Tai furious. This was simply boosting others' morale and undermining their own prestige. According to the delegation, a court with a woman proclaiming herself emperor could actually pose a threat to Daliang. The memorial also hinted that Daliang had better introduce steam locomotives, trains, and electricity at all costs. This was simply a joke!
Is it necessary for a great country like the Celestial Empire to admire the ingenious and lewd skills of a few foreign countries? Emperor An Tai was absolutely unwilling to bow down to a woman. In his mind, even if steamboats and other things were useful, Auroura should have offered them voluntarily.
Emperor Pingxuan got this legitimate son in his old age. He was very capable and paved the way for his son. The Empress's family also supported him. Emperor Antai got the throne relatively smoothly. However, Emperor Pingxuan did not have time to properly train his son. Young people are inevitably a little arrogant. Emperor Antai was very dissatisfied with the delegation's trip.
The cabinet was discussing how to establish diplomatic relations with Qi State. They saw the steamship, the unprecedented train and the long-lasting electric lights which were simply amazing. These ministers naturally knew what these things represented. Now was not the time for Daliang to be proud.
Fortunately, Daliang and the Emperor Dafeng have always had good relations. This time, the conditions were simply not agreed upon, and no irreconcilable conflicts arose. They can still continue the talks in the future.
