The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Tang Empire, in the office of Nangong Hong, a diplomat from the Laines Empire sat nervously facing Nangong Hong, waiting for his response to a question many were eager to know the answer to.
"Sir, I understand the intent behind your question, and I can only tell you that the Tang Empire does not have a strong demand for territory; currently, we have no plans to invade other countries." Nangong Hong provided a very clear response.
Upon hearing this, the diplomat let out a sigh of relief and then continued, "If that is the case, then why has the Tang Empire been so active in the Dahua Empire's civil war?"
"I think you have misunderstood. Our active involvement is due to our interests being affected. The civil war in the Dahua Empire has cost us a lot of money and has also destabilized our borders," explained Nangong Hong officially.
