"Grand Master Sun Hui has committed crimes against me many times. He should have been executed. Considering that he has been in power for many years and worked hard for the country and the people for half his life, he will be exempted from capital punishment and fined a year's salary. Go back to the government and save the past!"

Qiao Yun left such a sentence, flicked his sleeves, and took Du Li away without looking back.

Sun Hui clasped her hands tightly on the ground, and said respectfully, "Thank you...long live my emperor."

Sun Hui was still kneeling on the ground, but the ministers and family members around him had already gathered around the Du family.

"Congratulations to Mrs. Du, Master Du!"

"Young master of the Du family is beautiful and wise, Mr. Du and Mrs. Du are so lucky!"

"..."

Sun Ying stepped forward to help her mother up, and seeing the flattering smiles on Du Qin's face, she wondered what she was thinking.

"The world always likes to follow the wind to make the rudder. Today, my Sun's family is in trouble, and it is human nature for them to curry favor with the Du family who is in favor."

Sun Hui has long been used to this kind of thing. When her Sun family got the favor, didn't those people greet her with smiles like this?

It's just that the feng shui turns, and her grandson family will occupy the head of the family again in the future.

"Mother, my child doesn't understand why the emperor is targeting my grandson's family everywhere today?"

Sun Ying helped Sun Hui to walk outside, away from the hustle and bustle before asking.

Sun Hui paused, shook her head and said, "Young emperor is unpredictable, I'm afraid this move is because I was too eager to send your brother into the palace, and I lost face to the emperor, right?"

"How can we not be in a hurry? Then Du Li has already become Mrs. Mei. If there is another heir, how can our Sun family have a foothold above the court?"

Thinking of the emperor's humiliation to the Sun family today, Sun Ying became furious. This was clearly aimed at her mother.

"It's hard to guess what the little emperor is thinking, let's take another look."

Sun Hui only found out today that the emperor's method was the same as that of the regent Nan Jun. She really deserved to be the children brought up by that person, and she underestimated them!

Seeing that her mother didn't speak any more, Sun Ying didn't want to say much, but Sun Caier's failure to enter the palace today was really unexpected.

"Brother Ah Li, I'm afraid I will wrong you in the future."

Qiao Yun looked at Du Li beside him full of guilt. He had no intention of involving Du Li, but today's situation did not allow him to decide. He only hoped that when Sister Yun returned, he could find a good home for Du Li.

Du Li smiled softly, took the initiative to hold Qiao Yun's hand, and squeezed his cold fingers.

"Everything is done voluntarily by Du Li. The emperor doesn't need to blame himself. Du Li is very happy to do something for the emperor."

"Brother Ah Li doesn't need to be born like this, and there are no outsiders here, so my brother calls me Yun'er."

"Yun'er..."

Since then, Du Li entered the palace to accompany him, and Qiao Yun's life in the palace finally had some fun.

On weekdays, besides approving papers at the court, Du Li would also play chess with Qiao Yun. Qiao Yun wanted to learn embroidery, and Du Li also taught him patiently.

Speaking of which, Du Li is really a good man.

Qiao Yun once asked Du Li in private, asking him if he would blame himself for taking Nan Jun away.

Du Li smiled slightly, and only said that this matter had nothing to do with Yun'er, even without Qiao Yun, Nan Jun would not be with him.

Nan Jun also sent a lot of letters one after another, knowing that Du Li had entered the palace, Nan Jun didn't say much, he only said that he should take care of each other, and don't play tricks of traitors.

After Sun Hui was reprimanded by Qiao Yun in the imperial garden, she became much more honest during this time, and the court never dared to contradict the little emperor again.

Qiao Yun was in charge of the government alone, and he became more and more proficient in handling affairs. He only hoped that Nan Jun would return sooner.

"Brother Ah Li's cooking skills are getting better and better. This lotus seed soup is a hundred times better than the imperial dining room."

As soon as Qiao Yun came down to court, Du Li brought over a bowl of hot lotus seed soup.

During this period of time, Du Li took good care of Qiao Yun. From the perspective of outsiders, the intimacy between the two cannot be described as affectionate.

"It's just as long as you like to eat. After working so hard every day, you should make up your body."

Du Li has taken over the harem since entering the palace, and taking care of Qiao Yun's food and daily life is also his part.

Fortunately, he was born in a wealthy family since he was a child. Mr. Du Li was also raised as a prince, and he was quite handy in managing the harem that had not yet received servants.

Qiao Yun pinched the flesh on the back of his hand with a bulging face, and said with a flat mouth: "Brother Ah Li has made Yun'er fat..."

Du Li glanced up, then continued to brew his tea, and said calmly, "It's just a layer of skin, where's the fat?"

Du Li knew that Qiao Yun was not favored by his parents since he was a child, so he always wanted to take care of him more, and always treated him like a younger brother.

Because of Qiao Yun's special status, Du Li took good care of him in every possible way. Even the personal servants he brought from home, Du Li never let them get close to Qiao Yun's body.

If it weren't for the fact that he was reading the scriptures very late, Qiao Yun would go to Du Li's place to rest. Every time at this time, Du Li would dismiss all the servants, and he would do everything by himself.

Du Li's heart towards Qiao Yun was never true.

No matter why Du Li treated Qiao Yun like this, Qiao Yun at this moment was already unwilling to care about it.

"Hmm... Brother A Li's tea is really fragrant!"

Qiao Yun sniffed, leaned over to the teacup and smelled it, and a strong fragrance of jasmine immediately permeated his heart.

"After I wash this tea, I can drink it."

Du Li dotingly pushed Qiao Yun's little head away, and Qiao Yun couldn't help but think of Nan Jun again.

Just as Qiao Yun was staring at Du Li with his chin in a daze, there was a hasty knock on the door.

As soon as Du Li's subordinates stopped, hot water flowed out of the cup. Qiao Yun hurriedly took the teapot and put it on again, pulling Du Li up and down nervously to check it.

"Nothing, go and see if there is any urgent matter outside first..."

Du Li waved his hand at Qiao Yun, and then subconsciously pressed down the jumping eye.

Displeasure flashed across Qiao Yun's eyes, and he stared at the closed door and said coldly, "Come in."

"My lord, it's not good, something happened at the border..."

Li Hanying's face was pale, and she rushed in, knelt down in front of Qiao Yun and cried.

"what?"

Qiao Yun and Du Li got up at the same time, and they both looked at Li Hanying who was lying on the ground with worries on their faces.

Something happened at the border, is it Nanjun...

"My lord, Mei Jun, you two must hold on! Nine thousand years old led troops to garrison Mocheng. After the third war with Dongguo, both sides suffered heavy losses. The national grain and grass, in order to protect the five hidden guards who went with them, Jiu Qiansui took the initiative to lure the enemy away... The grain and grass were burned, but Jiu Qiansui disappeared..."

It would take more than ten days for the frontier to deliver the letter at a fast pace day and night. In this way, Nan Jun has been missing for half a month.
