Bai Qingyan didn't stand on ceremony, she nodded slightly and asked, "Regarding the remains of Hancheng King of our Zhou, I wonder if the Empress has arranged for proper care?"
"Rest assured, Emperor of Zhou, the remains of Hancheng King... I have already ordered them to be carefully preserved in an ice coffin." The Empress of the Dongyi Kingdom nervously clenched her hands, feeling quite uneasy, yet she still stepped aside with a smile, making a gesture for Bai Qingyan to enter the city and take a short rest.
Bai Qingyan nodded, then turned to Bai Qingjue and instructed, "Have someone escort Minister Liu and the other envoys to settle at the posthouse first, and have an official check on them! The main army will be stationed outside the city, a thousand will take over the capital's defense, and five thousand will follow me into the city..."
