The Court sent a special envoy to announce the "good news," and all officials of The Overseers gathered, naturally hosting a banquet for guests, and this time it was much grander.
Held at the Heavenly Patrol Hall.
Chen Yuan ordered everything to be prepared properly.
During the banquet, Chen Yuan introduced the identities of Xu Shaoqing and Gou Yue to the officials of The Overseers, saying they came together on an imperial mandate, which greatly surprised many civil servants of The Overseers, thereby deepening their trust in the imperial edict.
This demonstrated the Court's high regard for the Nine Colonels, indicating no further pursuit of previous matters, allowing them to sleep peacefully.
At once, many congratulated Chen Yuan, offering toasts.
But Chen Yuan looked toward the closest table on his right side, smiled and said,
"Ah, everyone should toast not to myself, but to the Lamp Master Eunuch Li!"
