The man surnamed Li greeted Leng Lanzhi in a very flattering tone, and then told an interesting incident that happened in his jurisdiction.

One day when he was out for an outing, he passed by a village full of children and women.

The women are all as beautiful as flowers, and there are always fine wines at home.

That day, the officials had a great time eating and drinking in this village, which was like a Taoyuan holy land. When they went back, they were all light-headed.

A few days later, he remembered the taste of the wine that day, and wanted to go to that village to taste the wine, but found that there was no Taoyuan village in that place, just a deserted forest.

He remembered that he had asked about the name of the village at that time, and when he returned to the county government and looked through the files, he was surprised to find that there was no such village in his jurisdiction.

Such an anecdote, he wrote it into the book as an interesting anecdote, hoping to make the princess laugh.

Leng Lanzhi stretched out his hand and lightly tapped the table with the middle finger of his right hand, a look of contemplation flashed in his eyes.

After a moment, she said: "Go to the princess' office and get all the official documents in the fiefdom in recent years."

The official documents sent to the princess's palace, except for those that have important matters to deal with, other insignificant documents will not be sent back to the fief, but will be sealed up.

For example, this excerpt about interesting stories presented by Mr. Li.

Not long after, Liusha came back with two large boxes.

Leng Lanzhi asked people to find the greeting envelopes sent by the gentleman named Li Changlin. Not long after, Liusha found three envelopes.

Leng Lanzhi opened it and took a look, and found that what was written in these notebooks were indeed insignificant things.

She put down the paper and let out a breath of air.

After a moment, she whispered to the outside: "Ah Qing."

Ah Qing came in quickly, knelt on one knee, and said with a cold but respectful expression, "Princess."

Leng Lan said: "I have assigned you a new task."

***

There are now only three of the four Jinxing Guards left. Except for Axiang and Alan, who have to protect Leng Lanzhi every day, only one person is left to go out to do things.

Leng Lanzhi suddenly discovered that there were not many available people under his noble and incomparable princess.

The only few capable ones were all borrowed from Jinxing Division by taking advantage of the favors Gu Zhan owed her.

She thought about it for a moment, and then she was shocked.

Before she got married, she relied on her father. After she got married, she was so focused on pleasing Shen Yizhi that she had no life of her own at all.

Even these people in the princess's residence are sent from the palace, and all appointments and arrangements must be made according to the instructions of the palace.

Of course, until she loses power, no one dares to touch anyone in the princess's house.

However, she suddenly felt a little uneasy.

The uneasiness comes from this illusory dignity that is like a mirror, a flower in the water, a castle in the sky.

She realized that besides being in love, the reason why she was plotted to death by Shen Yizhi in her previous life might have other reasons.

Father's birthday is getting closer and closer, and Shengjing has become much more lively.

Many officials came from other places, and the carriages of princes returning from their fiefdoms appeared on the street from time to time, making the already lively streets even more crowded.

The luxurious chariots were walking up and down the streets. It usually only took two-quarters of an hour to enter the palace, but now it took a full hour.

However, Leng Lanzhi was already used to it.

This is also the case in normal years. Whenever the emperor's father, the queen mother or the emperor's grandmother celebrate their birthdays, Shengjing will become more lively than before.

After spending some time with her mother in the palace, she talked, and then went to see the crown prince's sister-in-law for a while, before Leng Lanzhi returned home.

Not long after returning home, the housekeeper came to report that the consort had gone to work.

Only six or seven days have passed since that day of the cane punishment. Logically speaking, Shen Yizhi's injury will not heal so quickly.

He ran to work so quickly, presumably because he was worried that his job would be taken away by others again.

Leng Lanzhi didn't want to use the same method a second time, so Shen Yizhi worried about it this time in vain.

Leng Lanzhi was right.

The reason why Shen Yi rushed back to work in such a hurry, without even caring about his injuries, was because he was worried about what would happen to his job.

Although he is the prince of Pingnanhou, his father is a loser and has no influence at all in the court. He cannot be assigned any position and has to rely on himself for everything.

He used his six years of military exploits to become a sixth-grade Qianhu.

He was angry and unwilling at the same time. He felt that the emperor was overqualified and underused, and that he had been implicated by Leng Lanzhi.

Otherwise, with his talents and achievements, he would have to be at least a fourth-grade deputy camp general, right?

However, it didn't.

Even a guy like Zhang Zhongqian who has no foundation can now be equal to him.

An unprecedented sense of urgency arose in his heart, and he felt that if he didn't work hard, he would become a complete joke.

He has already figured out that although the suburbs of Beicheng are not a good place, if it can be managed properly, it may not be a shining achievement in his career.

With his buttocks burning with pain, Shen Yizhi finally finished his day's work. After handing over the shift with his colleagues in charge of the night shift in the evening, he thought about it and decided to go back to Pingnanhou Mansion for a visit.

The last time his mother left, he was being executed.

I don’t know how worried and sad my mother is!

And his sweetheart.

As for the naughty boy Shen Lin'an, although he was a little worried, he was more angry.

If it weren't for this naughty kid, he wouldn't have suffered so much.

But it was his only child after all, so what could he do if he got angry again? He could only force himself to suppress his anger, continue to pamper and take care of him, and strive to straighten the crooked sapling so that it could grow strong.

Thinking of asking Shen Lin'an to change his ways, he suddenly remembered that when he was on the border a few years ago, Shen Lin'an was only three years old and had just started school. He did well in his daily homework and was extremely well-behaved and sensible.

And this is all because he is by Jiaoer's side and has the guidance of his mother.

Shen Yizhi thought that maybe Yu Waner could be asked to take care of Shen Linan's daily life in the future, so that Shen Linan might be able to make people worry less.

This time when he returned home, Mrs. Zhao was so distressed that she wiped her tears.

Shen Yizhi quickly comforted his mother and finally managed to coax her mother well. He asked: "Mom, where is An Erniang?"

At the same time, I made a calculation in my mind.

An'er has now been expelled from Xiangyun Academy, and other academies are no longer willing to accept him. If he wants An'er to continue studying, he can only hire a teacher from outside.

Moreover, we can’t find it in Shengjing, because it’s best to find it from other places.

Because the scholars in Shengjing must know what happened outside Xiangyun Academy and have misunderstandings about An'er's character.

Scholars value reputation most, and these people will definitely not be willing to teach An'er.

The gentlemen from out of town didn't know what happened in Beijing. After inviting them here, they signed a long-term contract for several years. Even if they knew about An'er's expulsion from the academy, they would not be able to regret it.

But with his husband's patient teaching, Jiao'er's supervision, and An'er's clever mind inherited from him, it won't take more than a few years for An'er to become a talented person.

At that time, Leng Lanzhi will regret it!

I regret that I missed such an outstanding child.
Chapter completed!
