As soon as the sky brightened, Li Xingpeng took the new housekeeper Li An and the departing former housekeeper Li Bo to leave his small courtyard in the slums of the imperial capital in his own carriage.

Today is the day when Li Fei returns to the Far East, and Li Xingpeng deliberately got up early in the morning and rushed over to see off his father's henchmen. At the same time, I also want to send Li Bo back together. Looking at Li Bo, who had followed him for more than ten years, Li Xingpeng was actually reluctant in his heart, just thinking about the old man's hometown thousands of miles away, and finally decided to let Li Bo return to his roots and spend his old age in peace.

Li Bo also knows this, and he is also reluctant to leave Li Xingpeng, who he brought up. Thinking that he came to the imperial capital alone with a teenage young master, more than ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the little boy has become a high-ranking official in the empire, Li Bo's heart can't help but feel a lot of emotion.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was still some time, Li Bo explained something to Li An beside him over and over again. The young master likes to eat the dim sum of that store the most, and he likes to wear the clothes of that ready-to-wear store the most. The well in the small yard should be taken care of, and the naughty children in the yard next door always like to throw stones into it, and so on.

Li An was also concentrating on remembering these things on the side, looking at the gray hair of his companion for many years, his heart was also a little sour. The young master has finally grown up, and he will definitely take good care of the young master in the days to come.

"My lord, the East City Gate has arrived, please get off the bus!" Outside the carriage, the driver was reminded.

As the southern gate of the imperial capital, for safety reasons, vehicles entering and exiting are subject to routine security checks. In principle, this is the case, but when it comes to enforcement, it is not so strict.

For example, when he saw the military coat of arms representing his identity on the carriage, the officer leading the team at the city gate security checkpoint simply glanced at the carriage and waved his hand to continue walking, and there was no need to check it.

The carriage continued to start, drilled out of the wide and long city gate, and came to the east gate of the imperial capital. It was a large empty square, surrounded by snacks, breakfasts, tea stalls and other shops.

Far away, Li Fei and his entourage found Li Xingpeng who rushed over, hurriedly put down the teacup in his hand, and greeted him from afar.

"Young master, it's really a shame for you to send me an old man!" He politely saluted Li Xingpeng, and motioned to the two subordinates who followed him to help Li Bo get his luggage out of the carriage.

"Mr. Li is polite, in addition, he has trouble taking care of Li Bo along the way, the old man is old and in poor health!" Li Xingpeng politely expressed his intention. Sending you off is only one aspect, but more importantly, rushing over to say hello.

looked at Li Bo who was standing aside, and Manager Li hurriedly patted his chest and promised that he would take good care of Li Bo on the way, and if anything went wrong, he was the only one who asked.

In fact, even if Li Xingpeng doesn't need to explain in person, Manager Li will take care of Li Bo as his own father. Just kidding, the little young master in front of him, if nothing else, will definitely inherit the title of Duke in the future. Don't stutter at this time, wait for when.

As an old man who has taken care of the young master for ten years, Li Bo is emotionally quite intimate. Manager Li knows that it doesn't matter how much hair he loses along the way, this Uncle Li, if he loses a hair, it is estimated that his future will have some unexpected twists and turns.

"It's not early, I have to rush back to work, let's go!" After Li Xingpeng finished speaking, he walked to Li Bo's side, gently hugged the old man in front of him who had taken care of him for ten years, and got into his carriage without looking back, because he didn't want others to see his vulnerability.

"Mr. Lee, Uncle Lee. The young master has me to take care of here, so you can rest assured! Have a nice trip! Li An looked at Li Xingpeng, who had gotten into the carriage, and hurriedly turned around and signaled that the two of them could open the way, and he had to send the young master to work, but he couldn't delay.

Starting from the East City Gate, he hurried along the way, and finally sent Li Xingpeng to the front of the Military Affairs Department building. After confirming with Li Xingpeng what to eat for dinner, Li An jumped out of the carriage alone.

I still have a lot of things to do today, so I first have to find a builder to repair the small yard. There are also necessary utensils that need to be equipped a little, as for the servants, according to the young master's orders, I won't look for them for the time being. Manager Li has promised to arrange a group of domestic servants from the Duke's Mansion to come over when he goes back, so he will be happy during this time.

Li An knew that before he came, the Duke's Palace did not know that Li Xingpeng was about to take up the post of assistant minister. Now that Li Fei had quickly dispatched the servants who had announced the good news, it was estimated that it would not be long before a large-scale reinforcement team from the Duke's Palace would arrive. Before that, it was important for me to take care of the young master.

Oops, oops! The young master doesn't know how to cook the dishes he wants to eat at night. At present, I am best at boiling water and boiling eggs. If you want to arrange it according to this standard, it is estimated that the young master will slaughter himself in no more than three days, how can this be good!

Li Xingpeng didn't know how much trouble he had caused to Li An for a simple dinner at this time. Because his own troubles are no less than those of Steward Li.

"Brother Xingpeng, it's early!" With a smile, he got up from the chair behind Li Xingpeng's desk and said hello to Princess Liai first. It seems that Her Royal Highness the princess is in a good mood today, and she shouldn't have come over to shout for help.

"I don't know what Her Royal Highness the princess is looking for!" Seeing Lina's assistant sitting on the side, Li Xingpeng hurriedly gave a military salute.

"Well, I have something to do with Director Li!" Princess Lili Ai saw Li Xingpeng in a serious manner, pursed her lips secretly, and glanced at Adjutant Lina who was sitting again.

"I'll go make you a good cup of tea for Her Royal Highness the Princess!" As a qualified adjutant, he naturally knows what position he should appear in on such an occasion. After making an excuse, he got up from behind his desk and ran out, looking like he wouldn't be able to come back for a while.

"Ah Li, what are you looking for me?" Since there were no outsiders anymore, Li Xingpeng was not polite, took off his military hat and put it aside, and sat on the sofa of the reception.

"Brother Xingpeng, it's an errand arranged by your uncle, I'm just informing you!"

"Oh, what's the matter!"

"Uncle asked you to arrange a war game about the situation in the southwest today, and the results will be summarized and reported to his old man!"

Li Xingpeng is not surprised by this job, after all, this is also a basic job after he is about to become an assistant minister. When I was in school before, this was my strong point, and it was basically the existence of pressing Lin He and Linghu to the ground and rubbing them.

"Okay! I'm ready! ”
