The man said, "Patriarch Zhang is indeed very thoughtful. The majesty of the emperor is not something that ordinary people can see whenever they want. If I had known, I would have brought my son along as well."

Suddenly, someone behind him laughed and said, "Your son is still a baby, isn't he? Don't let him wet his pants when he sees His Majesty."

"Get lost, just be careful not to pee later."

"Hehe~, I just finished peeing before leaving the house~"

Haha~....."

And so, the group arrived at the prefectural governor's mansion, chatting and laughing all the way. They presented the gift list and were then led aside by the servants.

Inside the prefectural governor's residence, Liu Hong inquired about some government affairs from the officials of Zhuojun. After confirming that their reports were largely consistent with his own understanding, he dismissed them.

During the break, Zhang Rang approached with a stack of gift lists.

"Your Majesty, this is a gift presented to you by a prominent local merchant from Zhuojun. What do you think...?"

"Oh, put it down, and let them in."

"promise!"

Zhang Rang placed the gift list on the table next to Liu Hong and then walked out.

Liu Hong looked curiously at the stack of gift lists, then picked one up and began to examine it.

"That's quite a generous gesture. If I were to travel all over the Han Dynasty, I wouldn't have to worry about money at all."

Looking at the valuable gold items and treasures on the gift list, Liu Hong glanced at Xi Zhicai and the others beside him, seemingly half-jokingly.

Xi Zhicai laughed and said, "Your Majesty's idea is quite good. The scenery in various parts of our Great Han is beautiful, so it's good to travel around more."

"If I had the chance, I would really like to set foot on every inch of the land of the Han Dynasty and personally measure this beautiful country that our ancestors have conquered for us."

As Liu Hong spoke, a look of longing appeared in his eyes.
