Zhao Defang's road to the virtuous king

"Yes, haha, that's right." Defang nodded with a smile, "This paperweight is good. The lonely king needs to replace the paperweight in the studio."

Du Wenkai slightly raised his head to look at Concubine Di and then lowered his head deeply. Defang looked at him and frowned, returned to the chair and asked, "Master Du, you have only been transferred to Beijing for two days, why did you come to the Nanqing Palace of Guwang?" , and specially prepared such a special gift?"

"I have heard of the lord's virtuous name in other counties for a long time, and I am very impressed. However, the position of the official is humble, and it is difficult to go to Beijing to see the real face of the lord. This time, the official was recruited to Beijing. Long En is profound, and I want to be lucky. I paid homage to the prince, so I prepared the ceremony myself before I left Laizhou. The officials who came to the capital with me have already gone to various mansions to pay homage, but the officials don't know the other nobles in the capital, and they don't know that they want to visit them in the name of peace, so they can only come to the south. The Qing Palace has bowed to the prince."

"So, Lord Du wanted to see what the lonely king looks like a long time ago? How does the lonely king look like?"

Du Wenkai was stunned for a moment, and Concubine Di smiled and said, "Lord Du, the lord is saying that you have finally seen the real face of the lord, is it the same as you imagined before?"

"Yes. Oh. No. Yes."

"Master Du" Defang looked at Du Wenkai, "Is that right?"

"Yes. The prince has a majestic face."

"Oh? Is that the lonely king looks too powerful?"

"No, no, what I mean by the official is that the prince is virtuous and benevolent, admired by all people."

"You've heard this, right? How do you know if the lonely king is real or not?"

Du Wenkai's forehead was sweating a little at this time, Concubine Di said seeing this, "My lord, Mr. Du has just entered the capital, although the preparations are light and thoughtful, he has heard of the lord's name for a long time, so he came to worship when he entered the capital, don't scare him. "

Defang smiled, "Well, Mr. Du, don't be afraid, the lonely king is joking with you, hehehe, sit down."

"Thank you, Lord" Du Wenkai took one-third of the chair

"Master Du, did you come to the palace just to pay respects? Or is there something else?"

"This official is here to pay homage to the prince. It is an honor to be able to step into the palace and meet the prince."

At this time, the goalkeeper came in, "See the lord and empress, Your Majesty sent someone to bring Cordyceps, Ganoderma lucidum, wild ginseng and cakes to the lord."

"And cakes? Your majesty is really thoughtful, hehehe, Guangxiang, take the herbs and so on to Jin Guoshou, and bring the cakes."

The goalkeeper brought the pastry, and Defang looked at it, "Well, it's not bad, Xinkang, try it and see if it's delicious."

Concubine Di picked up a piece of snack for Xinkang to eat, Defang turned her head to look at Du Wenkai who was about to speak, but suddenly her heart tightened, she frowned and said unhappily, "Master Du, is there anything else?"

Du Wenkai was also surprised, "I'm an official. I'm fine now."

"Well, Mr. Du, I wonder if your family members have also entered Beijing? Where do you live now?"

"Return to the prince. I am an official. I have no family members. I am currently staying in the post house."

"No family members? They didn't enter Beijing?"

"No. Yes. The lower officials have never been married and have no children."

"What?" Defang looked at Du Wenkai in front of him, "Master Du, according to your official history, you are also in your forties, right? How come you have never been married?"

"This. The lower official is... uh. The lower official's family is poor, so."
