The next day, Zeng Fan received the holy decree. Pen & Fun & Pavilion said a lot www.biquge.info the holy decree, but it was to the effect, "Shoufu Zeng Fan, because he was busy with political affairs, was ill, so I gave him a seven-day vacation." ”

By the way, of course, there is also a reward, in the name of the queen. The emperor and queen made their position clear with their actions. They will never allow Zeng Fan's resignation, he is still the first assistant, and now he is just not in good health, so he can rest at home. The seven-day period is also marked, which is to tell everyone that Zeng Fan has an irreplaceable position in the heart of the emperor.

So when the reward came, the hundred officials who were still watching in Beijing were encouraged at once, and the threshold of the Zeng family was about to be broken. And these people, there is no need for Li Ping to come out to greet them in person, she is entangled with the eldest lady and Zeng Fan in the back. One of them didn't go, settle down!

"As it is said, the gift has been sent. People have come back these days, and it is really impossible not to go. However, An Jia doesn't understand the reason. The two families are also in-laws, and you just came back, and your uncle fell ill again. Isn't it time for your family to come and see us? The eldest lady said busily.

"Don't talk about the in-laws, the main thing is Mr. An, the old lady is still there. We are juniors, so we have to visit. Li Ping sighed and patted Zeng Fan, he can recuperate now, but it is himself who is embarrassed.

Zeng Fan smiled and shook his head, he was leaning on the study to read at this time, and he still had a pen and paper in front of him, his old habit was that he could take notes at any time. But it's a mess outside, and his wife and mother-in-law can't get out, so they can only bother him. He finally put down his pen and talked to his wife.

"The teacher and the master won't mind, I handed over the post to the old man on the first day, and you also sent everything you want to send. Now we have done the way of students; But at this time, I'm sick and the door is blocked outside, so you should be like my godmother. We are relatives, and we have something to do now, so we should come first. Besides, do you remember, when the An family returned to the capital, you were busy and greeted them as soon as possible. Now that we're back, what did they do? ”

"You forgot, we're daughters!" Li Ping gave her husband a roll of the eyes.

"So what do you think Ho family came to do yesterday? Is it because their daughter is in our house? Zeng Fan looked at the sky, they all knew that the two bigwigs of the He family came together, to put it bluntly, they didn't want to break the relationship between the two families. The son of the An family happened to marry the daughter of their family, but he was not the Zeng Fan in his dream. If his daughter is not happy, he will welcome her home with open arms. So what is he afraid of settling down?

"But speaking of which, the He family is just the big He and the little He are here, didn't the in-laws return to Beijing?" Li Ping finally remembered something again.

"Hey!" The old lady and Zeng Fan sighed together, and now the two of them can see that Li Ping is now annoyed. So she transferred her troubles to Zeng Fan.

"What did you embroider yesterday? I don't think I've seen it. Zeng Fan decided to change the topic, for seven years, Li Ping has embroidered flowers every day, but few will embroider for a long time. And he took a look at it yesterday, and it was a new trick.

"If you want to give it to the queen's mother, didn't you say that you want to learn embroidery from me? It seems that she wants to establish some contact with me, and there are some things that men don't say well, so she told me, persuade you or something. So I'll prepare first. Li Ping immediately returned to the state of a good lady.

"Do you know what she likes?" Zeng Fan wasn't worried about her much, but they had been away for seven years, and she hadn't entered the palace to visit the queen mother before, and now she just came back and started to do it.

"Well, Lao Zeng was okay before, and he would send me the gift list sent to the palace by each family. Over the years, I have researched. I feel like I know what she likes. Li Ping smiled smugly at him.

Zeng Fan was stunned for a moment, he understood Li Ping's intentions. There are a lot of problems that can be seen from the gift list. The gift list sent to the palace by everyone can slowly see the preferences of the recipient according to the progression of time. It's just that she came to the layout many years ago, isn't it too early?

"It just so happens that our family is here, so we should discuss something. I resigned to the emperor yesterday, although the morning decree rejected it. But what do you mean? Want to go back to some loose days? Zeng Fan remembered something, put down the book, and decided to talk to his mother-in-law and wife about whether he wanted to resign this time.

"In addition to the reason for Zhong Xian and Ding Tong, is there any reason why you don't want to do it?" Li Ping thought about it for a while, she actually wanted to ask all along. When he was in Fujian, he knew that the emperor had a little prince, and then after receiving the holy decree to return to Beijing, he was actually very annoyed. At that time, it hadn't happened to Zhong Xian them.

"What about you? Do you want me to be the first assistant? Zeng Fan hesitated.

"This really doesn't matter, our family is really not worried about eating and drinking now. If you don't become prime minister, we won't move. By the way, will the emperor give Di? ”

"No, it won't."

"Oh, that's even better. So if you don't want to do it, let's go to Gangnam, right? Look at Brother Hao's factory? Li Ping nodded and looked at the eldest lady.

"You don't want to go back and see your mother?" The eldest lady felt that her daughter was comforting her uncle, and she was not easy to express her opinion, so she spat her casually.

"Okay, let's go back to our hometown first, and then take a boat to see my stepfather." Li Ping nodded, now she still has a shipyard, and they also have the ability to build steam engines. So they themselves have a nimble clipper. They can comfortably run around the country.

"I don't want to be the first assistant, but I don't want to leave the capital, I want to influence the emperor by his side, so that our efforts in the first seven years will not lose their meaning." Zeng Fan knew that his wife was comforting him, so he just smiled and said softly. But immediately smiled again, "I'm sorry, I didn't want to sacrifice you, but now it seems that you are still sacrificing for me." ”

"It has nothing to do with sacrifice or anything, as long as I am with you, it doesn't matter where I go, and it doesn't matter if I am the first lady or not. But now, what do you want? You're a little afraid of fame, I don't quite understand that. Seven years in Fujian, I was a student who didn't have much to do, but what I was worried about was what the emperor should do. Now too, the emperor asked you to be the first assistant, so that you can justifiably do what you wanted to do before and can do well. It should be said that you have a bigger stage to realize your dreams, what reason makes you afraid to accept it? Li Ping thought for a while, and also withdrew her indifferent smile just now, and looked at her husband seriously.

Zeng Fan leaned back on the recliner and looked at the sky for a while, "I don't know how long this cooperation with the emperor can last." The emperor can trust me, but what about the next emperor? ”
