Tang Ze smiled and said, "Not only have I missed the excitement, but I have also missed the great excitement that is rare in ten years."

The magic of archery like Du Chengan's is unparalleled.

Lu Cheng looked regretful for missing out on the fun.

Tang Ze asked, "You came back so soon. Is your mother okay?"

Lu Chengdao said, "My mother is fine, but my father has a slight problem. Doctor Tao prescribed some medicine for him."

Fortunately, it was a false alarm. I called Dr. Tao for a minor problem and frightened him.

It was already time for the banquet, and everyone walked towards the Linde Hall where the banquet was being held today.

Xie Jingyan on the right is holding Shen Wan's hand, and Shen Du on the left is holding the hand of Princess Huai'an.

Prince Yanping and Tangze were walking behind, feeling extremely miserable.

Normally, one pair of dogs would be enough to choke people, so two pairs of dogs sprinkled them together.

It’s great to have a wife.

Fortunately, his marriage has been decided. If it is soon, he will get married next month.

When the time comes, he will spread dog food whenever he has nothing to do, and he will be counted as one who chokes to death.

After entering the Linde Hall and sitting down at their seats, everyone was still talking about Du Chengan's magical archery skills just now, and everyone was envious of the eldest son-in-law.

His son had been wandering for nineteen years, and he was extremely lucky to be able to find him again. What was even more fortunate was that his talent was not buried, and a mere hunter also trained his son to be a talented person. On the contrary, Master Du, who died unexpectedly, enjoyed all the benefits. The glory and wealth that did not belong to him were incompetent in literature and military skills, and his moral character was corrupt.

The officials and their families sat down, and after waiting for about half a cup of tea, a drake voice came:

"The Emperor has arrived!"

All the officials stood up to greet the emperor.

The emperor is wearing a bright yellow dragon robe, and he is extremely noble. Behind him is the Empress of Song, and behind him are several concubines.

The emperor walked to the dragon chair, waved his hand and said, "Everyone, get up."

Only then did everyone get up.

After the emperor sat down, everyone sat down.

At that time, the sound of silk and bamboo spread, and the dancers came on stage to dance.

After about two dances, another drake voice came:

"The Queen Mother is here!"

Everyone stood up and saluted the Queen Mother one after another.

The Queen Mother is the Emperor's biological mother. When the Queen Mother arrives, the Emperor has to stand up to greet her.

The Queen Mother was smiling, and she was even happier than she was on her birthday.

The Queen Mother gave birth to two sons and one daughter for the late Emperor, the Emperor, King Cheng and the eldest princess of Huyang.

Needless to say, Your Majesty, you have many children, but King Cheng and the eldest princess of Huyang have much fewer children. King Cheng only has one pair of children, Prince Cheng is a medicine pot when he was born, and the eldest princess of Huyang almost died in order to give birth to a child. Not only did he suffer a lot in life, but his child was stolen and taken away, and he loved the son of his enemy for nineteen years.

At the time of the accident, the Queen Mother's hair was very white. Now that her grandson has been found, he is quite talented in bow and arrow. The Queen Mother is very relieved.

Du Chengan showed his bow and arrow skills to everyone. The Queen Mother was not able to see it, but she was very happy when she heard that the emperor gave Du Chengan the bow and arrow in his collection.

Prince Cheng also went to Huguo Temple to rest and his condition improved greatly. The Queen Mother looked forward to the day when Prince Cheng recovered from his illness.

If you are in a good mood, you will naturally be in high spirits.

The banquet is very lively, and everyone has long been accustomed to it, but for the Du Chengan brother and sister who attended the banquet for the first time, it was a novelty from beginning to end.

The eldest princess of Huyang whispered to her son, "There are many ladies from all over the world at the banquet today. Let's see if there is anyone you like. Mom will come to your door to propose marriage."

Get married...get married...?

Du Chengan's face turned red like a cooked crab.

He shook his head quickly.

He knew that his current status was noble and he was no longer the son of a little hunter before. However, he felt that he was not worthy of these ladies. He was so shocked by the girl from the prefect's family that he looked at it one more time and his eyes rolled. Not nearly poached.

These ladies looked more noble than the daughters of the magistrate's family. He didn't even dare to take a second look at them, and his mother even asked him to choose...

The eldest son-in-law held Princess Huyang's hand and said, "An'er is still young, this matter is not urgent."

How is he still young?

I'll be twenty years old in half a year.

However, the eldest son-in-law said so, and the eldest princess of Huyang said nothing and just enjoyed the singing and dancing.

The king and his ministers enjoyed themselves while drinking and drinking.

The banquet lasted for more than an hour before breaking up.

After seeing the emperor off, everyone filed out and headed out of the palace.

Shen Wan and Xie Jingyan had walked less than a dozen steps when Xiao Xizi's father-in-law came over and said, "Princess Ling, the emperor asked you to go to the imperial study."

Shen Wan's mouth twitched.

Then he turned around and looked for Xie Jingyan from her.

Can father and son stop being so awkward?

Xie Jingyan knew that the emperor was looking for him, but he knew what the use was. He couldn't let Shen Wan go alone, so he could only accompany him.

Xie Jingyan accompanied Shen Wan to the imperial study room with a nonchalant look on his face.

As they walked, the eldest princess Huyang and the eldest son-in-law came out of the palace. Xu Changle followed them obediently. Du Chengan was not here, and he had already gone to play with Prince Yanping and the others.

The eldest princess of Huyang saw her and said, "An'er trusts the eldest young master of the Duke of Tan's house more than you and I as our parents."

The eldest consort said, "They saved An'er's life, so why don't you trust them?"

"Their friendship with An'er has nothing to do with An'er's identity."

Princess Huyang said, "I am happy for An'er that she can make a few true friends without us growing up."

The eldest prince consort said, "So, you don't object to the friendship between An'er and Prince Yanping?"

Princess Huyang said angrily, "When have I ever objected to An'er's association with them?"

As long as you don't object, the chief consort said, "I have something to do with the emperor. You go and stay with the queen mother. I will pick you up later."

What business does he have with the emperor?

The eldest princess of Huyang wanted to ask, but the eldest consort had already left.

The eldest princess of Huyang took her daughter to the Queen Mother's Shoukang Palace.

Royal study room.

The emperor sat on the dragon chair and drank tea.

Shen Wan stepped forward, paid his respects to the emperor, and then asked, "I wonder why the father is here to find his son...?"

The emperor said, "You understand the general situation and put the court's affairs first, so you should be rewarded."

"What reward do you want?"

Shen Wan was stunned for a moment before realizing that the emperor was referring to her meritorious service by persuading Xie Jingyan to hand over the drawings of the Xizhou Dam.

She obviously moved towards Xie Jingyan, but did she also make a meritorious deed?

Shen Wan felt that the emperor just wanted to see Xie Jingyan alone, and there was no reason and he was deliberately making excuses.

Shen Wan said, "My son and I lack nothing, no rewards are needed."

The emperor laughed, "Is there anyone who thinks the reward is too much?"

The emperor looked at Eunuch Yuan, "Go to the warehouse and pick out a few things that Princess Ling likes."

Eunuch Yuan said, "How can I know Princess Ling's preferences? Why don't I let Prince Ling choose with me?"

The emperor waved his hand, "Go."

Shen Wan, "..."

Can it be made more obvious?

She's right here.

Wouldn't it be better for her to do what she likes on her own?

Xie Jingyan's brows were furrowed, and the word "disgust" was written all over that monster's face.

But Shen Wan urged him with her eyes, and Xie Jingyan followed Eunuch Yuan away with an unhappy look on his face.

Xie Jingyan and Eunuch Yuan left here, and Eunuch Xiao Xizi came in from outside and said, "Your Majesty, the eldest consort wants to see you."

"Let him in."

When Shen Wan was thinking about resigning, the emperor said, "Find a place to sit by yourself."

Shen Wan silently found a place to sit down.

The eldest son-in-law came forward to salute the emperor, and the emperor said, "What does the eldest son-in-law want from me?"

The chief consort said, "I would like to ask your Majesty for something."

The eldest son-in-law has been married to the eldest princess of Huyang for almost twenty years, and he has never asked the emperor for anything. The emperor was really curious about what the eldest son-in-law asked him to do, and immediately asked, "What do you want from me?"

The eldest son-in-law said, "An'er didn't grow up in Kyoto. Even when she stayed in the eldest princess's palace, she was very restrained. However, she got along well with Prince Yanping and the others. An'er has too much to learn. I would like to ask the emperor to give him some advice. It’s a gift to let An’er join the city patrol department and gain knowledge by following them.”

The emperor really didn't expect that the chief consort came to him for this matter. The emperor said, "Let An'er practice with Prince Yanping and the others. This is a good arrangement. I'm sure."

The position of the Chief and Deputy Secretary of the City Patrol Department is fixed, but there are many positions for the City Patrol. How could the emperor not agree to such a trivial matter?

"Thank you, Your Majesty."
