There's really no need for that. No one likes gifts like locusts.

Yun Wanrou shook her head and turned to look at Wangshu who was following behind her.

"Yangyang has been hungry all day, heat up some porridge for her!"

"Don't eat porridge, eat meat!"

Yangyang shook his head.

【I want to eat pig's feet, braised pork, and sweet and sour spareribs. 】

[Fried locusts, too. I've been busy for so long, but I haven't even tasted them yet! ]

Yun Wanrou: "Throw away the sack!"

Hearing this, Yangyang’s eyes widened.

She struggled for a moment, then slid down Yun Wanrou's body swiftly, protecting the locusts like food.

"You can't throw it away, it's mine!"

"Those are bugs. You can't eat them. Only birds eat bugs."

bird?

Yangyang's eyes turned and she pointed at the little phoenix above her head.

"It's not thrown away!"

“Chirp!”

Mine, can’t be thrown away!

Yun Wanrou looked at the man and the bird, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly.

How can such a small phoenix eat so many insects?

It can be seen that Yangyang guards her food very closely. She is afraid that if she really throws it away, she will run away with Fenghuang again.

She hesitated for a moment, then compromised: "You can stay, but you can't eat secretly!"

"Don't steal food!"

Yangyang waved his hand.

[I eat openly and honestly, I won’t eat secretly. ]

Yun Wanrou: “…”

Or should we just throw it away?

Yun Wanrou just thought about it and didn't really let anyone throw it away.

After all, this thing was brought back from the south with great effort.

Leaving it for Fenghuang to eat would make her trip worthwhile.

The news that the goddess rode a phoenix and destroyed the locusts soon reached the emperor's ears.

When the emperor heard the word "Phoenix", he thought of Yangyang.

That day Yangyang was riding on a phoenix, soaring in the sky.

From a distance, doesn't she look like a goddess descending to earth?

But he didn't expect that in such a short time, she actually went to the south and helped him solve the big problem of locust plague!

"Okay, okay, this little guy is really my lucky star!"

The emperor was overjoyed. He picked up a pen and quickly wrote an imperial edict.

He closed the imperial edict and handed it forward.

"Eunuch Li, please go to the Grand Tutor's Mansion."

"promise!"

Eunuch Li responded and stepped forward quickly.

He had just raised his hands, but before he could touch the imperial edict, the emperor took it back.

"No, this is such an important matter, I have to go there in person!"

Having said that, the emperor stood up and walked out quickly.

It was the first time that Eunuch Li met the Emperor. He cared so much about him that he even announced the Emperor's decree himself.

At 9 o'clock in the morning, the emperor led a group of people and came to the Grand Tutor's Mansion in a grand manner.

Yun Xiucheng brought his family and quickly came to the yard.

Before he could speak, Eunuch Li, who was standing behind the emperor, said, "Master Grand Tutor, please accept the order!"

As Eunuch Li's voice fell, Yun Xiucheng and others knelt down one after another.

Eunuch Li unfolded the imperial edict and sang loudly: "The Emperor, by the Will of Heaven, decrees:

There is a girl named Yangyang in the Grand Tutor's Mansion. She brought the Phoenix to eliminate the locust plague and made great contributions. She was specially named the Princess of Youle County and was granted a fief of 2,000 households.

Hearing this, everyone in the Yun family was stunned.

They all raised their heads and looked at the emperor.

Did they hear it wrong?

The imperial edict just said that Yangyang has wiped out the locust plague?

Yun Wanrou's eyes turned, and when she thought of the big sack of locust corpses that Yangyang brought back, she understood everything.

She turned to look at Yangyang, her eyes filled with smiles.

"Yangyang, thank you quickly."

"Thank you, Your Majesty...Mmmmm!"

Before Yangyang could finish her words, Yun Wanrou covered her mouth.

She turned to look at Yun Wanrou, her eyes filled with confusion.

[Didn’t my mother ask me to thank the Emperor? Why did you cover my mouth? 】

[So now, are you thanking me or not? ]

Meeting Yangyang's puzzled eyes, Yun Wanrou shook her head.

Then, she tentatively let go of his hand.

Seeing that she didn't say anything else, he turned to face the emperor and kowtowed in panic.

"Your Majesty, Yangyang is still young and can't speak clearly. I would like to thank you for your grace on her behalf."

"No need to be polite."

The emperor waved his hand and didn't care.

Anyway, this is not the first time Yangyang has called him grandpa in her heart.

Fortunately, no one in the Grand Tutor's Mansion could hear her thoughts, otherwise they would have been scared to death.

Thinking of this, the emperor felt even happier.

He is the only one who can hear Yangyang's thoughts. It seems that he is special!

"Your Majesty, it's almost noon. If you don't mind, why don't you stay and have dinner?"

Yun Xiucheng's voice brought the emperor back to his senses.

Seeing him being supported by Yunli, he slowly stood up.

The emperor hesitated for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

"I've heard that the chef at the Grand Tutor's Mansion is a good cook. Even the tree roots are cooked to be crisp and delicious.

I have wanted to try it for a long time, and since the Grand Master has invited me so kindly, I will not refuse."

After saying this, the emperor walked past everyone and slowly walked into the front hall.

Yun Xiucheng looked at his back, a hint of cunning flashing across his eyes.

He waved to the servant beside him and whispered something to him.

The servant was stunned for a moment.

Before he could come to his senses, Yun Xiucheng's voice came into his ears again.

"Go now!"

Hearing the voice behind him, the emperor paused and turned to look at Yun Xiucheng.

Yun Xiucheng met his eyes and immediately put on a smile.

"I have already arranged for the kitchen to be ready. Your Majesty, please go to the front hall and take a rest!"

"Um."

The emperor nodded slightly, turned and walked into the front hall.

As soon as he sat down, his right eyelid began to twitch violently.

He raised his hand and touched his eyes, and caught a glimpse of Yun Xiucheng who seemed to be smiling.

But when he turned around, he found that Yun Xiucheng was sitting upright with no smile on his face.

Could it be that he was dazzled and saw it wrong?
