"My Lord, everything was fine last night, nothing unusual."
Li Chen replied, handing over a cup of warm tea.
"Sir, please have some tea to warm yourself up."
Fusu took the tea, took a sip, and immediately felt refreshed.
"Thank you, Commander Li. The situation in the capital has been changing a lot in recent days. I am grateful for your protection and that of the brothers in the Imperial Guards."
"You are too kind, sir. This is my duty."
Li Chen said modestly.
Fusu slowly woke up from his sleep, his eyes slightly opened, greeting the hazy morning light coming through the window lattice.
He rubbed his eyes gently and gradually adjusted to the brightness in the room.
On the side, Li Chen had already stood up and was waiting for Fusu to wake up.
Seeing Fusu waking up, Li Chen stepped forward and asked softly.
"Sir, you are awake. Do you need breakfast?"
Fusu nodded, his voice still a little hoarse from waking up in the morning.
"Well, thank you, Commander Li."
"You are too polite, sir. This is my job."
Li Chen said this and turned to arrange breakfast.
After a while, the steaming hot breakfast was served.
The fragrant porridge is served in an exquisite porcelain bowl, with a few exquisite side dishes placed next to it.
Li Chen personally served the food to Fusu, meticulously and thoughtfully.
Fusu looked at the breakfast in front of him, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He looked up at Li Chen and smiled.
"Commander Li, I feel much less worried when you are by my side."
Hearing this, Li Chen showed a faint smile on his face.
"You are too kind. As long as you need me, I am willing to go through fire and water without hesitation."
The two smiled at each other, and the atmosphere was harmonious and friendly.
After breakfast, Li Chen cleaned up the dishes and asked.
"Sir, are you going to the morning court today?"
Fusu sat at the desk, tapping the table with his fingers, lost in thought.
Li Chen stood aside, waiting for Fusu's instructions.
The room was so quiet that the only sound could be heard: tapping on the table, each tap seemed to strike at one's heartstrings.
"Li You is a man who is good at speaking. He should be able to convince my father."
Fusu finally spoke, breaking the silence in the room.
His voice was firm, with an unquestionable power.
When Li Chen heard this, a hint of admiration flashed in his eyes.
He knew very well that Fusu always made decisions after careful consideration, and there must be a reason why he chose to trust Li You this time.
"Then sir, what should we do next?" he asked.
Fusu raised his head, his eyes sharp as torches.
"You go and arrange the morning court immediately and make sure everything is in order. At the same time, send a message to Liu Ji and Xiao He, asking them to come to the palace to attend the morning court as well."
"Yes!" Li Chen replied and turned around to carry out the order.
"and many more."
Fusu suddenly stopped him and said, "Tell them that this morning court session concerns the state's major affairs, so they must act with caution."
"My subordinate understands!"
Li Chen nodded solemnly, then left the room and began to make arrangements in a hurry.
As the morning light faded, the palace gradually became lively.
Li Chen, dressed in the uniform of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, was moving hurriedly between the palace corridors. His figure looked particularly tall and straight under the reflection of the morning sun.
He first went to the court and communicated with the palace servants about the procedures and details of the morning court to ensure that everything went smoothly.
Immediately afterwards, he went straight to the residences of Liu Ji and Xiao He.
When he arrived, the two men were already dressed and ready, obviously looking forward to the upcoming morning court session.
"Liu Ji, Xiao He, the Master has ordered you to follow me into the palace to attend the morning court."
Li Chen conveyed Fusu's order.
