"By the providence of Heaven, the Emperor decrees."
"Prince Ning has quelled the rebellion in Qi, and his achievements surpass those of the three armies. Effective immediately, he will be granted an additional fiefdom of 30,000 households in Ningque, from the three counties of Linzi, Jiaodong, and Langya. Reward your officers and men according to their merits!"
"We thank Your Majesty!"
Ning Que raised his hands and bowed towards the west.
To the west is the direction of Chang'an City.
Steward Hu smiled and continued, "Also, Your Highness, please send the bandit leaders Tian Zhongxun and Gu Yuan to Chang'an immediately for His Majesty's personal disposal.

"How is the Queen Mother these days?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
Manager Hu just smiled and said nothing more.

"Your Majesty, I have something to say, but I'm not sure if I should say it or not."
"Manager Hu, you're too polite."
Ning Que smiled and raised his hand, saying, "General Manager Hu has served the palace for many years and has made great contributions. He is considered an elder to me. If you have any reminders, please feel free to speak up!"
