Chapter 37

　At the Zhejiang Provincial Governor's Mansion, Pang Jun slowly woke up from his sleep. It was broad daylight at this time. His groaning when he woke up startled the maid who was serving him. The maid happily called out, "Master Liu, are you awake?"

　　Pang Jun took a closer look and saw that the maid was wearing yellow clothes. She was Jinlan, the beautiful maid who had served him a few days ago. He smiled at Jinlan and said, "Hello, Miss Jinlan."

　　Jin Lan looked at Pang Jun and said, "Master Liu, it's great that you woke up. You've been sleeping for two days and two nights. You must be very hungry. I'll get you some millet porridge." Then she called out, "Liu'er, Master Liu is awake. Go and report to the master."

　　Jin Lan helped Pang Jun up, and Pang Jun's elbow just touched her soft breast. She blushed and didn't say anything. Then she took a small bowl from the table, put some millet porridge in a large bowl, sat next to Pang Jun, and fed Pang Jun porridge one spoonful at a time with a spoon. Pang Jun was also happy to be served by a beautiful woman.

　　Soon, the bowl of porridge was finished. At this time, Nan Xinzhao's voice came from outside the door: "Master Liu, Master Liu," he entered the room, bowed to Pang Jun and said, "Ziye, if you hadn't turned the tide at the critical moment the day before yesterday and stopped the Japanese pirates, I'm afraid the whole Jiangling City would have been slaughtered by the bandits, robbed and killed. On behalf of the people of the whole city, I thank you Ziye for your desperate rescue."

　　"Lord Nan, you are too polite. As a soldier, it is my duty to protect the country and the people," Pang Jun said modestly.

　　"Hey, Ziye, don't bully me because I am a scholar and don't understand your duties. You, the Shenyi Guards, are His Majesty's special forces, not an army that deploys troops and fights head-on. Combat the enemy head-on is not your strong point. But you fought so bravely and made such great sacrifices, which makes me, an old fool who fell into the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain, feel ashamed." Nan Xinzhao said with great sorrow.

　　Although he became the governor of Zhejiang Province because of his niece Nan Xiangwu and his brother Nan Xinzhou, he was not the kind of official who exploited the people and was uneducated. He was also a capable and talented person. Jiangling, Zhejiang Province was his hometown, and his hometown was looted and massacred, and it was the people under his jurisdiction, his fellow villagers, who were heartbroken.

　　"Lord Nan, the deceased is gone, please accept my condolences," he paused and said, "May I ask, Lord Nan, how are my subordinates doing now? I am quite worried."

　　"Zi Ye, eight of your subordinates unfortunately died in the battle, and the rest were injured to varying degrees. As for the Japanese pirates, including the leader Saito, a total of 138 people died, 37 were captured, and the rest escaped. After I came back, I immediately sent people to Diaoyu Island, but before landing, I found that the place was already on fire and everything was burned. And the group of Japanese at the martial arts conference had already left and their whereabouts were unknown before I received the news that Jiangling was attacked." Nan Xinzhao answered Pang Jun one by one.

　　Pang Jun nodded and said, "Master Nan, Ziye has something to ask of you."

　　"Speaking."

　　"Master Nan, please send someone to help Ziye order eight coffins. Ziye wants to take his deceased brothers back to the capital. When we came here, we swore that as many people as set out would return. Ziye doesn't want to break his promise."

　　"Okay, no problem, leave it to me." Pang Jun's words moved everyone present so much that they couldn't help but cry. Jin Lan, who had been standing aside, didn't dare to cry out loud and could only lower her head and sob.

　　"Also, since Ziye has woken up, I won't bother Nanfu Zun anymore. It's time to go back to the post station to be with my brothers."

　　"Hey, no, no, no, Ziye, you just woke up, you are still very weak, rest for a few days, and it won't be too late to go back after you recover." Nan Xinzhao hurriedly stopped him when he heard Pang Jun was leaving. He tried his best to save your family, but he left just after waking up. People who don't know the truth would think that the Nan family of Zhejiang Province is cold and unfeeling. "Three days, you rest here for three days. After three days, I will hold a banquet for all of you Shenyiwei, and then you can go back."

　　"Well, well, sorry to bother you, Lord Nan. Sir, please find a few more of my subordinates who have recovered and go to the other four counties in Zhejiang Province to recall my other subordinates and tell them that the mission has been completed and to return to the team immediately."

　　"Okay, okay, I'll do it right away. You take a good rest," he turned his head and said to Jin Lan, "In the next few days, you just need to serve Master Liu well. If there is anything wrong, you will be held responsible."

　　Jin Lan bowed and said, "I understand, master." After finishing the instructions, Nan Xinzhao left Pang Jun's room.

　　For the next three days, Pang Jun almost stayed in the room to rest and recuperate, with Jin Lan taking care of his daily life and diet. In addition to practicing qigong and regulating his breathing every day, he would often tease the pretty maid Jin Lan. Jin Lan, the little maid, was already seventeen years old this year, and was at the age of thinking about love. In addition, Pang Jun was young and promising, and had a handsome appearance, so she had already fallen in love with him.

　　In fact, for Pang Jun, as long as he beckoned with his little finger, Jin Lan would consciously climb onto his bed and become the mare under his crotch. However, he needed an opportunity. There is a difference between actively asking Nan Xinzhao for Jin Lan and Nan Xinzhao giving Jin Lan to him. What Pang Jun wants is Nan Xinzhao to ask for her. If Nan Xinzhao doesn't ask, it doesn't matter. After all, as for women, he still has Pan Tong and her daughter.

　　In the past few days, Pang Jun's subordinates in neighboring counties, led by Fang Botao and Bai Shaochuan, also rushed to Jiangling to gather. On the morning of the third day, Pang Jun went back to the post station to meet with them. After explaining things, he went to the "Liu Mansion" alone.

　　Seeing Pang Jun coming back, Yue Siwan, who had been anxious for a long time, shouted "Ziye, I missed you so much," and threw herself into Pang Jun's arms. There had been no news from Pang Jun for several days. They only knew that Pang Jun led his subordinates in a bloody battle with hundreds of Japanese pirates with injuries, and they knew nothing else. After he hadn't come back for several days, Yue Siwan almost went to the governor's mansion to look for him, but was stopped by Pan Tong.

　　Pang Jun hugged the warm and soft girl and said with a smile, "Well, my good Wan'er, my love for you is not in vain." Then, he looked at Pan Tong, who was blushing and wanted to move but did not dare to, and said, "Tong'er, do you miss me?" He let go of Yue Siwan and stretched out his other hand.

　　Pan Tong then shyly walked to Pang Jun's side and was held in his arms by Pang Jun. Pang Jun asked again: "Well? How is it? Do you want it or not?"

　　Pan Tong then said in an imperceptible voice: "I want to."

　　"Hahahaha." Pang Jun laughed and kissed the mother and daughter respectively, "I miss you, too. I'm going crazy without you to serve me these past few days."

　　The mother and daughter moaned and leaned closer. Pan Tong whispered, "I heard that you were seriously injured and it's not suitable for you to have sex for the time being. Wait until you recover, and we, mother and daughter, will let you, let you abuse us." Seeing the beautiful woman's explicit promise, Pang Jun wanted to commit adultery in broad daylight and kill them on the spot. Unfortunately, time did not allow it. He said, "I came here today to tell you something. In two days, I will return to the capital. I want to ask, are you willing to go back to the capital with me?"

　　"Yes, yes, we will follow you wherever you go," Yue Siwan said first.

　　"What about Tong'er?" Pan Tong rolled her eyes at him charmingly and said, "Of course, wherever my husband goes, I will follow."

　　"Okay, let's do this. This time when you return to the capital, you will be my concubines. From now on, you will be my Madam Ru. You will set off in two days. Tonight, I have to attend a farewell banquet at Nanfu Zun's place and stay there. Tomorrow night, I have to go back to the post station and will not rest here. Let's do this for now."

　　"Yes, I understand."

　　In the evening, the dinner began. This time, Nan Xinzhao invited all the high-ranking officials from Zhejiang Province. Due to the Nan family, the governor's seat of Jiangnan Province was not in Zhejiang Province, so Zhejiang Province became an independent kingdom in Jiangnan Province. Nan Xinzhao was the local emperor. The rest of the people were sitting outside the hall, and the chairman's seat was set up in the hall. Sitting in the chairman's seat were Nan Xinzhao, Zhejiang Chief Clerk Zhao Defeng, Commander He Yong, Jiangling's county magistrate, etc. In addition, there was a beautiful mature woman, that was Nan Xinzhao's wife, Wang.

　　During the banquet, many Zhejiang politicians toasted Pang Jun. Not only because Pang Jun saved their relatives from the butcher knife of the crazy Japanese warriors, but also because of Pang Jun's identity, the second lieutenant of the Divine Guard, the emperor personally named him to the position, the emperor's close minister, and Nan Zhaoxin hinted that he held the Nan family's "Black Jade Order", and was "one of the Nan family", so they would definitely try every means to curry favor with him.

　　Pang Jun himself, during the banquet, acted like a "young student". Whenever an official came to toast him, he would drink a glass respectfully and then use his internal strength to force the alcohol out of his other hand. He did not show any sign of being young and successful at a young age. As a result, the officials present more or less looked up to this Lord of the Divine Uniform Guard.

　　Finally, it was Madam Nan Wang's turn to raise a glass of wine to Pang Jun. She smiled sweetly and said in a delicate voice, "Zi Ye, if it weren't for you and the divine-clothed guards who stopped the thieves in front of the governor's mansion, I'm afraid that not only would the governor's mansion be looted and slaughtered, but I and many of his family members would also meet with misfortune. Here, on behalf of the governor's mansion, I toast you a glass." After that, she drank it all in one gulp.

　　Everyone cheered, "Madam Fu Zun is amazing!" "Madam Fu Zun is indeed a heroine, we admire her!"

　　Pang Jun also raised a glass of wine and said to Wang Limei: "Madam, thank you for your praise. Liu Jun was just doing his job. Moreover, Liu Jun knows that it was Madam Nan's instructions that the brothers of the Shenyi Guard get the best medicine and treatment. Liu Jun would like to thank Madam Nan here." After saying that, he also drank it all in one gulp... It was a banquet where both the guests and the hosts had a great time.

　　After the banquet, Pang Jun returned to his room. After taking a bath, he was meditating and practicing martial arts. A maid came to Pang Jun's room and asked, "Excuse me, has Lord Liu rested?"

　　"Not yet, may I ask what can I do for you, young lady?"

　　"Master Liu, the Madam invites you."

　　"Hmm? Madam?" Pang Jun was very surprised. Why did Madam Nan want to see him?

　　"Yes, Madam wants to discuss something with Lord Liu," said the maid.

　　"It's late at night now. I'm afraid it would be inconvenient for Liu Jun to enter the female family's backyard again?" The maid replied: "Madam said that as long as you go, you don't have to worry about anything else. Please follow me."

　　"Okay, then I'll have to trouble you to lead the way, young lady." With a lot of questions in his mind, Pang Jun followed the maid out of his room and went to meet Madam Nan Wang.
