On the Dragon Boat Festival, a unique barbecue dinner was held in her yard. On the morning of the next day, no one could wrap the rice dumplings. They bought them from the morning market. Once they bought them, they would have a basket of them. The female guards who had no rotation were all rushing to come.

Eating is often the most lively time in the mansion.

After breakfast, Liu Yu had to work in the palace. The three-day patrol lasted until afternoon. With the experience of the last time, Liu Yu had already figured out the route, but Yang Lie still needed to accompany him. During the few days when Liu Yu was in the contemporary commander, Yang Lie could not rest for a day.

When he saw Yang Lie, Liu Yu first asked about the latest progress in eradicating Xingqing Association. He was busy all night in Jingzhao Mansion and searched the secret strongholds of Xingqing Association throughout the city. Many halls were taken down. Seeing such a big action by the court, the activities of Xingqing Association were also restrained a lot. He no longer dared to come out to cause trouble since last night.

The inspection was still done step by step, and the work of recording the calendar was handed over to Yang Lie, and the submitted calendar was also done by Yang Lie. Yang Lie completed the errand that Liu Yu, the right commander, had to complete. Before the inspection had been halfway, suddenly, a member of the Imperial Guard sent a quick message from Longyou to submit to the emperor. According to the rules of the Imperial Guard, only the commander and above level could report the emperor. Liu Yu did not dare to make it a good decision, but he also knew that it was He Mao, the president of the Imperial Guard.

Liu Yu could only temporarily stop the inspection and went to the palace to present the memorial. As soon as he entered the palace, he saw Han Sheng, who was about to meet the saint. Han Sheng took advantage of the fact that no one passed by and whispered: "Your Majesty should answer carefully when the emperor asked questions later."

Han Sheng’s tip was unclear. Liu Yu understood some of the words Han Sheng was inconvenient to explain in detail. He was already a family and he also intended to remind him to pay attention.

Liu Yu and Han Sheng met the emperor in Yaqian Hall together. After seeing He Mao’s memorial, the emperor looked heavy and sighed: “I didn’t expect that the second child would suffer so much for many years. Alas!”

Liu Yu and Han Sheng dared not guess how hard the second prince Su Dian had suffered, but I thought life would not be better, and it would be a blessing to be able to live.

The old emperor smiled and said, "Wen Yan, how can the commander return to Chang'an tomorrow? You won't have to work so hard at that time."

Liu Yu quickly said something about "sharing your worries". The old emperor may be very happy to see his son who had been away for a long time. No matter whether he was the eldest brother who Su Dian killed, in the past few years, he would forgive him even if he was a father who was about to be buried. The old emperor asked about Liu Yu's experience of working in the past few days. Liu Yu responded one by one, and the emperor also showed his respect for him.

After asking about the errand, the old emperor suddenly said meaningfully: "Wen Yan, I heard that King Yu worships you as his master, and it was you who helped King Yu up with one hand. What do you think he is a human being?"

Liu Yu was stunned, it was hard to say this.

"When I go back to the emperor, I have been with King Yu for a long time. Although King Yu occasionally has bad luck, the key lies in sincerity. If you do great things, your ability may be worse than that."

If you can't say anything, just tell the truth. As long as it is not praised or criticized, the emperor, the father, can listen. After all, it is a father's question to his son's teacher, and most of the questions are asked about it.

The old emperor nodded and said, "Talk Yu is also my legitimate son. He has suffered a lot in the past few years. It is a bad attitude without a teacher. I would like to ask Wen Yanduo to give him more advice."

It is rare that the emperor can respect it, and Liu Yu wanted to show a look of fear and fear, "I should do my best."

If the emperor would not suddenly ask him about Su Yan, there was no need for Han Sheng to remind him of this matter. Liu Yuxin said that the emperor's words should be followed.

Sure enough, the emperor paused and asked again: "I wonder how much Wen Yan knows about the King of Chu?"

Liu Yu was still very confused when he didn't ask others, but asked the King of Chu. The reason for his confusion was that he had shown a kind of hostility to those unknown people. The seventh prince Su Zhe was a deep-seated person and was the candidate for succession to the throne that the old emperor liked. If this was not said well, the consequences would be serious.

There are two consequences: one is losing trust, and the other is retaliation after Su Zhe ascended the throne.

"When I go back to the emperor, I have no relationship with the King of Chu. I only know that the King of Chu is loyal, honest and low-key, and does not often have contacts with foreign ministers. Others..." Liu Yu thought about the words, and if he didn't understand, he should comment less, "I really don't know."

The rare old emperor nodded with a smile after hearing this, and agreed with his statement.

Liu Yu breathed a little relieved. He understood that the reason why Su Zhe became the best candidate to succeed the throne was because he was tolerant and had no strong relatives. Once such a person gained power, he could tolerate the weakness and be suppressed when the enemy was strong and we were weak. Once he had the chance, the energy that exploded was also terrifying. In short, the King of Chu was among the candidates of the crown prince, and his personality was most suitable to fight against King Huai.

The other princes and princesses are too fond of conspiracy and are easily disturbed by external factors. Su Bi is strong, Su Ren is conceited, and Su Yi is cowardly and likes to play cleverness, and they are easily taken advantage of by the King of Huai. As for Su Yan, there is no chance to be included in the ranks of the crown prince.

The old emperor said seriously: "Wen Yan, you know that the drought in Guanzhong is not allowed in a few decades. The granaries in Guanzhong are in short supply. Seeing that the summer grain is not harvested, the people will be displaced. I will send a few kings and princesses to Shandong and Huaixi for a generation of food..."

Speaking of this, all the news is exactly what Liu Yu knew before.

The emperor suddenly changed his mind: "The King of Chu is too cautious in daily life and does not have much contact with his ministers. I am afraid there is no one who can be used with this trip. I wonder if Wen Yan, you are willing to accompany the King of Chu this time?"

Liu Yu was stunned immediately, feeling a little flattered, but more of a doubt.

The emperor did not let him accompany Su Yan, but instead asked him to accompany Su Zhe. This was obviously because he trusted him and wanted to cultivate him into Su Zhe, the future crown prince's confidant.

Why did the emperor value Liu Yu, a newly promoted official, so much? Three aspects.

Firstly, because of his usual uncontested personality, he would not threaten the orthodox imperial lineage even if he gained power in the future; secondly, because of his despicable ability in the battle of Kuishui, he also trained Su Yan from a gangster step by step to stand alone; thirdly, the emperor also valued his identity, behind him was his father, Marquis of Dingguo, and his wife was the commander of the daughter army, and there were support from those who were working hard like Sui Yi and Li Mi.

Based on three points, pushing Liu Yu to Su Zhe is much more effective than dozens of ministers who are only good at talking.

Liu Yu could even guess that once he got closer to Su Zhe, no matter who he used, he would be valued by the emperor. This is to cultivate power for the future crown prince. Thinking of this, the old emperor should have had this plan after the Battle of Kui Shui, and it was only proposed today.

This is why Han Sheng’s reminder is also true.

Liu Yu understood the trick and did not dare to go against the old emperor's wishes. He said: "Although I have no friendship with the King of Chu, if the emperor sends me to accompany the King of Chu on this trip, I should do my best."
