"Come here, give Sun Aiqing another portion. In addition, change a big bowl and put more rice in it." Li Yu ordered the serving maid, don't let people be full, he is the master of the country and gives a banquet.

, it would be too embarrassing to spread the word.

Another dish was served in front of Sun Yu, and a large porcelain bowl was placed in front of him, which was three times as big as the previous silver bowl.

Sun Yu was not polite and continued to eat. Halfway through the meal, Sun Yu regretted it and pretended to be too big. His appetite was still inferior to that of Lao Cheng and Bahu. But he had no choice but to pretend.

*, I have to finish it with tears in my eyes.

"Lao An, bring these dishes to Aiqing as well." Li Yu pointed to the leftover dishes in front of him. He didn't have a big appetite and only tasted one or two bites of each dish.

Lao An hurriedly stepped forward to bring it to Sun Yu. This was a great honor, and only a handful of people in the whole dynasty received such treatment.

Sun Yu thanked everyone and refused to accept anyone who came, even if he had to finish it.

In the harem, Queen Zhou Ehuang was listening to the maid's report. Originally, the king was supposed to come here for dinner today, but he couldn't wait and waited, so he had to send the maid to find out the news.

"Your Majesty, your Majesty is hosting a banquet in the Imperial Study Room today to entertain Mr. Sun from Jianzhou." The maid went outside the Imperial Study Room, found a young eunuch with whom she was close, and inquired about it, and she found out.

"Master Sun from Jianzhou? Could it be that he is the one from Duke Lu's mansion?" There are so many officials in the world, how could she, a queen, know so much, but Sun Yu saved her sister, so she remembered it.

.

"Back to your Majesty, that's right. I heard that Mr. Sun has a very good appetite, and the Lord even ate a few more bites..." The maid reported back what she had learned.

"When he was a child, he had a good appetite, but he didn't expect that when he grew up, he would become even more powerful." Zhou Ehuang also knew Sun Yu, but at that time she was already at the age of getting married, unlike her younger sister Wei'er, who could have no scruples.

to play with him.

"Ahem, cough, cough~, show me, I also want to see how this old friend is doing now." Emperor Zhou E coughed violently. He had been ill for several years. He changed his doctor several times and took a lot of medicine.

It's not good. It's rare for an old friend to come to the palace, so you might as well go and have a look.

With the help of the maid, Emperor Zhou E got into the sedan chair and headed towards the imperial study.

"The Queen has arrived!"

Sun Yu finally ate everything in front of him. His stomach was extremely bloated, but he could only stand up quickly and bow.

"I forgot, I should call someone to tell the emperor, Ehuang, come and sit down." Li Yu and Zhou Ehuang have a very good relationship. In this palace, she is the only one who does not need to communicate with the emperor. Today, she only listens to Sun Yu's talk about the war.

I even forgot to go to the queen's place for dinner.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I waited here and there, but Your Majesty never came. I heard that Your Majesty was giving a banquet in the Imperial Study Room, and I was wondering if some foxy girl had seduced His Majesty's soul, so I came here to have a look these two days."

Li Yu had just granted a title to Xie Meiren, and fewer people went to her. Emperor Zhou E took the opportunity to complain.

"What do you mean, Emperor E? I'm a little busy with official duties today. I'll definitely spend more time with you when I have some free time." This is a serious official matter today, so Li Yu is quite confident. Emperor Zhou E also knew about this, so he asked this question.

Said, if she really hangs out with Xie Meiren, it will not be good for her

It was so direct that Li Yu couldn't get off stage.

"Who is this sir? You actually ate so much. I'm afraid your majesty is not full, right?" Zhou Ehuang glanced at the dishes in front of Li Yu and Sun Yu, and he said what he said was true.

"Ehuang, don't worry, I'm full. This is Sun Yu, the governor of Jianzhou. Not only is he very good in literary talent, but he is also outstanding in martial arts. He is a rare talent, but his appetite is indeed quite large." Li Yu laughed, and led the troops.

For those who fight, if you can't eat, you'll get slapped. The more you can eat, the better. Don't you think Lianpo is old, can he still eat?

"See you, your Majesty, I'm so rude!" Sun Yu raised his eyes and glanced, Zhou Ehuang was even more beautiful than when he was a child. Maybe he was in poor health, and his face was a little sickly white, but it made him look a little softer.

I feel that Xi Shi in ancient times was nothing more than this.

"It's Mr. Sun, no need to give in. My sister-in-law was lucky enough to be rescued by Mr. Sun before. You and I are old acquaintances when we were young, so there is no need to be restrained." Zhou Ehuang looked at it. This little kid before has really grown up now.

A few years ago, I heard that he suffered from the soul-leaving syndrome, and I was quite sad. Unexpectedly, he turned out to be a blessing in disguise, but he became a talented man in both civil and military affairs, far surpassing his father.

"Aiqing, please sit down!" Li Yu pointed to the stool. He had already expected that Sun Yu and Zhou Ehuang would get to know each other. After all, the two families moved around quite frequently before. But Sun Yu was still young at that time, and now his appearance has changed drastically.

It's normal not to recognize it at first sight.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Sun is an old acquaintance of my concubine. If you make any small mistakes, please forgive me for the sake of my concubine's face." Emperor Zhou E couldn't tell Li Yu to take care of Sun Yu, so he could only

Said in a roundabout way.

"Ehuang, he has made a lot of mistakes, but his merits are even greater. It's too late to reward him, so how can he be willing to punish him?" This kid in Jianzhou doesn't play according to the rules, so he naturally has many problems, but he has already done it.

If you are given the right to act expediently, you will naturally not be held accountable.

"Since you have a lot of credit, has your majesty rewarded you?" Zhou Ehuang turned around and stared at Li Yu with a smile. She came here just to earn some appearance for Sun Yu. Zhou Ehuang never interfered with these things on weekdays.

, Firstly, he was remembering his old acquaintance when he was young, and his father had passed away long ago, and he had no help in the court, so he would inevitably be made things difficult for him. Secondly, he had saved Wei'er before, so it was natural for him to step forward, and His Majesty would not blame him.

"Well, Ehuang, you also know that the treasury has been in difficulty in these years, and I have tried my best." Li Yu looked embarrassed. Although he gave some silver coins and horses, they were for the Jianzhou Army. For Sun Yu, it was

The rewards are indeed less.

"Your Majesty, I naturally know this, so why can't I think of some other way to show my favor?" Emperor Zhou E rolled his eyes at Li Yu.

"Lao An, take one of Gu's tokens and give it to Sun Aiqing." When Li Yu saw this posture, it would be impossible if he didn't make some tokens today. After Li Yu ascended the throne, he cast nine tokens to reward those who had made meritorious services.

The subordinates have only given out two pieces in total now, and the third piece given to Sun Yu today.

Sun Yu knelt down on one knee and took the token from An Jinhai. The token was heavy and hard in texture. It should be made of alloy. The four characters "Jiangnan Kingdom Lord" were engraved on the back.

"Sun Aiqing, if you hold this token, you can kill it first and then show it, and enter the palace directly. You have to keep it well." Li Yu said to Sun Yu. Originally, with his identity, he was not enough to hold the token, but the queen spoke,

No

I can't give it.

"I have thanked Your Majesty, but I will never use it lightly unless it is absolutely necessary." Sun Yu was overjoyed. With this thing, he would have the status of half an imperial envoy outside.

"Well, go down and work hard. Remember to report to the Ministry of Civil Affairs tomorrow, and then go back early." Li Yu waved his hand, and he might bleed again if he didn't leave.

"Wei Chen, please retire!" Sun Yu saluted and followed An Jinhai out.

"Eunuch An, I can leave the palace on my own. It's windy in autumn, but don't catch a cold." As soon as Sun Yu went out, he felt the wind outside was very cold, but it didn't matter because he was strong.

"It doesn't matter, our family is to serve people's lives, how can we be so pretentious? When will Mr. Sun return to Jianzhou?" An Jinhai waved his hand and took a walk, just to stretch his muscles.

"I'll go to the Ministry of Personnel to report on my duties tomorrow. If everything goes well, I'll be on my way after the payment of wages and horses from the Ministry of Household Affairs is completed." Now that we're here, we won't miss a day or two before we get the benefits.

"Well, don't worry about the horses. I have to help you choose them. Eunuch Xiao is well hidden. I'll take a look at it myself tomorrow." It's a rare opportunity to go to Xiao Yi's territory.

An Jinhai didn't want to miss it. Thinking of Xiao Yi's face tomorrow, An Jinhai would have to get some wine tonight. It was very refreshing.

"I'll leave this matter to my father-in-law. I'm waiting for the good news from my father-in-law at the house." Sun Yu knew this very well and couldn't help but smile at each other with An Jinhai.

Sun Yu came out of the outer palace gate, met up with Chen Qiba and his entourage, and went straight to the Duke's Mansion. Now that it was getting late, he wanted to visit Prince Han's Mansion first, but after all he felt it was inappropriate, so he decided to wait until tomorrow to go to the Ministry of Personnel to report on his work.

Say it again.

Uncle Quan was sitting on the stone steps at the gate of Duke Lu's mansion. He had been waiting here for almost a day, resting his legs. Ever since he knew that Sun Yu would return to Jiangning today, he had been waiting at the gate of the mansion. Why, it was already dark, and he hadn't been there yet.

Back. There were two other servants who had been guarding the entrance of the alley. Uncle Quan was afraid that they would not be able to bear it, so he changed two groups of servants.

"Xiaohuan, let's go take a look at the door again." Qing'er sat in front of the dressing table, using the bronze mirror to tidy up her makeup. She had done so no less than eight times today.

"Miss, Uncle Quan is waiting there. Once the master comes back, he will definitely send someone to report." Xiaohuan had just returned and burned incense. Today, he was basically running back and forth in front of the east courtyard and the gate of the Duke's Mansion.

Already exhausted.

"After eating so much for dinner, we should digest it and go quickly." Qing'er said without looking back. In the past, it was just a little temperamental. Today is the big day for Lang Jun to return home, so there is no chance of being careless.

"Obey" Xiaohuan had no choice but to continue to the door of the house to take a look.

"The master is back, the master is back!" The two servants who were guarding the entrance to the alley heard the hoofbeats of a group of cavalry in the distance and hurriedly ran towards the Duke's mansion, shouting as they ran.

They knew that their master was leading a group of cavalry. There were no cavalry running around in Jiangning Mansion this late at night, so it must be their master.

Before Xiaohuan reached the door, he heard the voice of a servant outside the door, turned around and ran towards the east courtyard.
