After Ying Zheng finished talking about the rewards, the group finally dispersed.

Zhao Jun returned to Zhiyang Palace, which he had been away from for a long time, and had a good sleep.

Although her schedule has been slow these days and her complexion is still okay, she still urgently needs a good sleep to restore her energy.

I slept from the afternoon until noon the next day.

When she woke up again, it was already lunchtime.

Qingliu walked in after hearing her movement.

She also knew that Zhao Jun was tired these two days, so she waited outside and didn't come in.

"Master, wake up! It's almost time for lunch. Do you want to notify the kitchen to bring food?"

Qing Liu was a little excited and asked with a smile on his face,

"No, I'll go by myself later. I also need to go to the front hall to look for the king."

She had just returned in a hurry yesterday and forgot to do something.

"good."

Qingliu nodded, then hesitated.

"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"

Zhao Jun got up and changed into the quju skirt she wore in the palace. Before, when she worked outside, she wore loose and comfortable cloth clothes.

This kind of curved skirt will show your figure very well, but it won’t allow you to take big steps.

It was fine for her to wear it in the palace, but she couldn't even move her legs outside.

She put on her clothes and glanced at Qingliu who was still standing and asked.

"Well, sir, although I am very surprised by the king's appointment of officials this time, I am also a little nervous."

Qingliu whispered.

"Sir, do you think I am really capable? Am I worthy of this female official? I am just working for you, sir. I haven't made any great contribution."

After the initial happiness, Qingliu was really a little hesitant.

Could it be that she got this position because of the adults?

Zhao Jun smiled, put his hands on his hips and glared at her.

"Why can't you, Qingliu? I don't deny that you got this opportunity because of me, but opportunities are given to those who are prepared and can seize them. If you don't do well, then you won't be with me for so long."

"Your abilities are obvious to all. You've done a great job in everything I've given you, and you can do even better in the future."

"Don't feel like this position is a burden to you. It's precisely because of this position that you should work harder and do what you want to do."

"You are just a female historian. I believe that in the future you may get more rights than this."

"So don't underestimate yourself. You can do very well, and you must work harder in the future."

She said this in a firm tone, patting Qingliu's shoulder.

"Okay, just face yourself. I'm going to the kitchen. You can order lunch yourself."

After she finished speaking, she walked out of the palace gate.

I have already said what I want to say, and the rest is up to you to figure out.

She hadn't been in the kitchen for a long time, so she received a warm welcome when she arrived.

Aunt Chaisang and Manager Ai are still the same.

As soon as she arrived at Aidu, she was shown freshly made tofu pudding.

Zhao Jun opened his eyes wide, he didn't expect that the kitchen could even make tofu pudding.

As the weather got warmer, Zhao Jun took a bowl of chilled tofu pudding and tasted it.

"Mmm, it tastes very good."

Zhao Jun scooped a spoonful and made a delicious sound.

"It would be nice if you could add a spoonful of sugar, this has no taste"

She is a staunch sweetheart.

"I haven't seen you for several months. I heard you were out of the palace on an inspection tour. I see you've lost quite a bit of weight."

Aunt Chaisang glanced at Zhao Jun and saw that he had obviously lost weight and had suffered a lot.

"What would you like to eat for lunch? You really need to replenish your energy. I also have tomato seeds from last year that can be harvested this year. I'll make you some scrambled eggs with tomatoes for lunch."

Chai Sang spoke enthusiastically, like a chatty and caring old lady.

"Wait a minute, Auntie, has the King's lunch been delivered? If not, I'll take it along."

She had something else to discuss with Ying Zheng, so they had lunch together.

"It hasn't been delivered yet, but everything is ready."

Aidu pointed to the prepared food box and said.

"Okay, don't bother me, I'll go deliver it. Add two dishes to it for me, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and a bowl of tofu pudding with some sugar."

The people in the kitchen worked quickly and soon Zhao Jun's meal was ready.

She carried two food boxes and walked slowly towards the front hall.

Fortunately, the kitchen was not far from Ying Zheng's front hall, and her hands were already a little sore from holding it.

Sun Cheng saw the person from a distance and came to greet him from afar.

"Master Zhao, you are finally back."

Sun Cheng shouted from a distance.

Zhao Jun rolled his eyes at him.

"Okay, help me carry my things."

Sun Cheng reached out and quickly took the food box from her hand, but he continued talking.

"You are finally back. If you hadn't come back, we would have had to eat hot pot in this hall until midsummer."

Sun Cheng was actually complaining, he had already seen it.

As long as Lord Zhao doesn't come back, the hot pot in the kitchen must be prepared.

But Zhao Jun felt that he was showing off.

"Having hotpot isn't a good thing. I haven't had it once in the past few months. You're just saying it to make me jealous."

"No, that's impossible." Sun Cheng smiled.

"Okay, I won't talk to you anymore. The king is here."

The two of them had already reached the door of the front hall.

"Yes, yes."

Zhao Jun pushed open the door and saw Ying Zheng still sitting there, but the bamboo slips he used to read had been replaced by paper.

"My Lord, it's time for lunch."

Sun Cheng put the lunch box on the table beside him and stood quietly in the distance.

Ying Zheng put down the memorial and glanced at her.
