Zhu Youxiao was circling around the imperial study room, rubbing his hands constantly because of excitement. He hadn't seen Yang Feng for almost a year. Zhu Youxiao felt that he had a lot to say to Yang Feng and had many questions to discuss with him.

To be honest, Zhu Youxiao's childhood was not happy. His father Zhu Changluo was not loved by his grandfather, Emperor Wanli, when he was the crown prince.

Zhu Yijun's heir whom he liked more at the time was King Fu Zhu Changxun, so most people in the palace at that time believed that the prince Zhu Changluo would be deposed sooner or later, and as Zhu Changluo's son, he would be even less likely to be taken seriously.

In addition, his mother died early, and both grandfather and father were indifferent to him, so Zhu Youxiao did not enjoy much warmth of the family since he was a child. During these difficult days, the only people who took care of him were the wet nurse Keshi and his personal eunuch Wei Zhongxian.

This is why Zhu Youxiao, who grew up, attached so much importance to family affection. Before Yang Feng appeared, the people he trusted the most were Keshi and Wei Zhongxian who had been with him.

However, although Zhu Youxiao favored Wei and Ke, one of them was a wet nurse and the other was an eunuch, and his help was really limited.

Since Yang Feng’s appearance, whether it is the establishment of the Ming Dynasty royal trading company, the establishment of the sea ban, the destruction of the Qing Dynasty, the suppression of pirates, and the acquisition of high-yield crop seeds, all things have made great contributions to the Ming Dynasty.

Not only that, Yang Feng first saved his life, but later because of Yang Feng, he and Zhang Yan had another child. It is no exaggeration to describe these things as graceful as a mountain.

After so many things, in Zhu Youxiao's heart, Yang Feng has become a teacher and friend. Perhaps what he doesn't want to admit is that in his heart, he has long regarded Yang Feng as a brother who can rely on and trust. Now, when he hears that Yang Feng is back, he is not excited.

"The Emperor...The Emperor...The Marquis of Jiangning has arrived... He has entered the palace!"

Just when Zhu Youxiao was a little restless, Sandezi hurriedly ran into the imperial study room, yelling constantly.

If Zhu Youxiao had been scolded by such an extremely rude thing in the past, he would have been scolded by Zhu Youxiao or even pulled down to beat the board, but today Zhu Youxiao did not blame him rarely, but instead showed a happy look, "Yang Aiqing has arrived? Where has he been?"

"Your Majesty, Marquis of Jiangning is waiting outside the door!"

"Hurry...let him in!"

"Haha... Your Majesty summons me, I'm here myself!"

As the sound rang out, a figure also appeared at the door of the Imperial Study Room. The person who was smiling at him was not Yang Feng.

"Yang Aiqing!"

Seeing Yang Feng appear, Zhu Youxiao was overjoyed, took two steps forward quickly, looked at Yang Feng for a while, took a deep breath before calming his excitement.

Thousands of words finally said one sentence: "I've lost weight... I've got black too!"

Seeing Zhu Youxiao's excited expression that could not be fake, Yang Feng felt warm in his heart and bowed and said, "I am afraid, your Majesty is worried!"

"Hahaha... I'm happier than anything else when I see my dear come back safely!"

Zhu Youxiao did not hide his joy in his heart at all and immediately ordered: "San Dezi!"

"I'm here!"

"Tell the Royal Seating Room that I want to have lunch with Jiangning Hou and let them make more special things."

"I understand!"

Sandezi agreed and immediately walked aside and whispered a few instructions to a little eunuch. The little eunuch immediately took the order and left.

Yang Feng hesitated for a moment, "Your Majesty, I have just returned and have not returned to the mansion to take a shower and change clothes. I'm afraid I'm not going to have a meal with Your Majesty rashly. Besides, I'm still outside the palace, my family is still outside the palace."

"What's the matter?" Zhu Youxiao waved his hand disregardedly: "You are not outsiders, so there is no need to talk about the common etiquette. Your family queens will entertain them. Let's deal with them now. Let's have a meal together during dinner."

The emperor said this step, what else can Yang Feng say? He can only agree.

Only Sandezi, who was standing by, looked at Yang Feng with some envy. His Majesty did not treat his ministers with his attitude towards the Marquis of Jiangning. This was no different from treating his own relatives.

The emperor ordered the meal to be started, and the imperial kitchen would naturally get things done as quickly as possible.

Soon, several eunuchs from the imperial kitchen had already entered the imperial study with food boxes and skillfully started to arrange them. In a short while, the table of wine and food had been placed.

"Yang Aiqing, sit down!"

Zhu Youxiao greeted him and sat down first.

"Then the minister is more respectful than obedient."

Yang Feng was not polite, and sat down.

He glanced at first and saw six dishes and one soup on the table, three meats and three vegetables, and the color looked very eye-catching, which made people feel very enjoyable at first glance.

He nodded secretly. It seemed that the emperor of the Ming Dynasty was still moral, at least he had to eat a meal alone in another time and space. He was shameless and said that he was much stronger than the frugal Qing Tartar emperor.

Just when Yang Feng was distracted, Zhu Youxiao personally picked up the wine pot and poured a glass of wine for Yang Feng. Then he picked up the wine glass and said, "My dear, you have been fighting for the country over the years. Thank you so much for your hard work. I wish you this glass of wine!"

Yang Feng quickly picked up the wine glass: "Thank you, Your Majesty. This is my duty. I dare not ask Your Majesty to worry about it. I will do this wine glass first!"

After saying that, Yang Feng picked up the wine glass and drank it all.

Sandezi, who was standing beside him, stared out his eyes. The emperor personally poured wine for Yang Feng, but this guy drank calmly. He was too brave, right?

After drinking this glass of wine, Sandezi didn't dare to watch Zhu Youxiao take action anymore, so he hurried over and poured wine for the two of them himself.

"This cup, I respect you for the people of the Ming Dynasty. The high-yield seeds brought by my dear will save too many people."

Zhu Youxiao, who had been having three cups, suddenly turned red. He laughed: "I have been having a headache about the northwest these days. Now that I am back, I can have a good sleep. This is all my credit for you!"

"Your Majesty is too rewarded!" Yang Feng quickly said modestly: "I am just a plain person, and my abilities are limited, so I may not be able to help Your Majesty."

"well……"

Zhu Youxiao, who had drunk a few glasses of wine, was obviously a little floating, and he waved his hand.

"Even the Manchu Tartars were wiped out by their beloved ministers. What are some of the bandits? As long as they take action, they will definitely succeed!"

Zhu Youxiao was right. He really didn't deserve to use his combat power to carry shoes for the Qing people. Yang Feng could destroy the Qing Dynasty, so it was naturally no problem to deal with those bandits.
