Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Have you used up the porridge in the morning?"

"Yes." Defang looked at Baili, "Baili said Madam asked Ke'er to prepare it, and I ate it all. Really, the porridge is delicious, and the dim sum is delicious, isn't it Baili?"

Baili smiled and nodded, "Yes, yes, ma'am, we've finished eating."

"Eat it all?" Concubine Di looked at Defang, "It's already time to pray for rain. You ate some porridge, and you had wine and vegetables with the King of Chu. Will you still be able to eat dinner?"

"It's enough to eat. Yuanzuo and I worked hard when we were archery." Defang patted his stomach, "And there's not much food and wine, so I just saved my stomach to come back to eat with my wife."

"Is it true? Don't be brave if you're full. It's not good to hurt your stomach."

"Really, I can eat two bowls of rice." Defang smiled, "and I can also drink a big bowl of stewed soup."

"If you can still eat so much, then the prince's stomach can surpass Mr. Zhang, hehehe"

The guards at the main gate ran into the main hall, "See you, my lord."

"What's the matter?"

"Go back to the lord, someone came from the palace and said that they are bringing meals to the lord, you and the empress."

"Meals? Let them bring them in."

After a while, several palace servants carried three large food boxes, and Defang looked at them, "What are these?"

"Return to the prince's words," said a servant, "Your Majesty is holding a banquet in the palace. Because the prince went to the Chu Palace to express his grace, he specially ordered the younger one to prepare a table for the banquet and send it to Nanqing Palace. Your Majesty wants the younger one to tell the prince, please." The prince, the empress, the prince, the princess, and the grandson of the king, have a banquet in the mansion to celebrate the grace of heaven."

"It turned out to be His Majesty's grace." De Fang cupped his hands to the sky, "I'm sorry to trouble my father-in-law to thank Your Majesty's grace on behalf of the lonely king and empress."

"Yes" the servant bowed and cupped his hands, "Your Highness, Your Majesty, the younger one will return to the palace first."

"Okay, please, father-in-law."

Defang looked at Concubine Di, "Ma'am, it's easy this time. Not only are there drinks and dishes, but they are also so rich. Call the children and let's use them together."

"And the little grandson."

"Yes, bring them all, it's lively like this, haha" Defang waved his hand, "Baili, put these on the table and call Xu'er and the others to the dining hall."

"Yes, my lord"

"Baili, get a few dishes from here and bring them to Nangong Wen, tell him to let him eat more, and there will be rewards later."

"Yes, my lord." Baili led someone out of the main hall carrying the food box

"Prince" Jin Yingshi walked in, "Please see the lord and empress for a lowly position, a thousand years old and a thousand years old"

"The treasury, these are all rewards from His Majesty, take someone to check and register, and then move to the treasury."

"Yes, my lord." Jin Yingshi beckoned to Kuding behind him, "Move to the treasury."

Kuding stepped forward to move it, and Defang said, "Wait."

Concubine Di looked at Defang, "My lord, what's the matter?"

"Choose a good object first, and I'll bring it to Nangong myself in a while, and thank him face to face for this big toad that can rain as soon as it opens its mouth."

Concubine Di Lala Defang "My lord, what are you talking about?"

Defang smiled, "Don't talk, don't talk, let's see the reward, hehehe"

Defang looked at the gift trays one by one, "Well, there are quite a lot of jade jewelry, madam, see if you like any of them."

"The concubine likes the jewelry given by the prince, but the others are not used to it."

Hearing this, Defang touched her heart with her hand, "Oh, my heart is so warm, it's so comfortable."

"The prince will make trouble." Concubine Di smiled, "If there is nothing special, let the treasury move away. After dinner, go to the treasury to choose. The children are still waiting."
