committed to serving the people and pursuing their best interests—it’s both my duty and a matter of trust bestowed by the Imperial Court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could I easily delegate these governmental responsibilities to others?” “Wouldn’t that be a betrayal of both the Imperial Court and the people?” “If you’ve truly recovered, feel free to resume your office duties tomorrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I have full confidence in your ability to handle the job excellently!” Don’t even consider taking on tasks that aren’t rightfully yours.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deputy Prefect Guan proved to be more audacious than Shao Yunduan had anticipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Shao Yunduan’s attempt to extend some courtesy, Deputy Prefect Guan believed he could push for more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Flashing a forced smile, he assured, “Rest assured, Lord, I’ll handle my responsibilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just focus on your recovery!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I managed all affairs in Anze Province before your arrival, so I’m well-versed and won’t make any mistakes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Deputy Prefect, it’s my duty to assist you!” Ignoring the unreasonable man, Shao Yunduan dismissed him with a few words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To his surprise, the next day at the government office, Deputy Prefect Guan acted as if he were in charge, issuing orders with authority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being Deputy Prefect, he already had supporters who flattered him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With his arrival, they saw a leader and eagerly followed suit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Observing him seamlessly taking charge and managing affairs as usual brought even more joy to his demeanor!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What did this signify?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It meant that within the government office, Deputy Prefect Guan’s status remained unshakable, and his influence persisted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This development alleviated tension among the office staff.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jia Heming and other scribes, who were not accustomed to Deputy Prefect Guan and were hired by Shao Yunduan, found it unbearable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After some deliberation, they decided to adhere to the established rules in the government office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone would perform their duties impartially, following Lord Shao’s instructions or official protocols.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In case Deputy Prefect Guan issued any directives, they would seek confirmation from Lord Shao before complying… Observing Deputy Prefect Guan’s enthusiastic demeanor, Shao Yunduan noticed he immediately assumed a masterly role upon returning to work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Choosing to avoid the situation, Shao Yunduan opted to spend more time with Qiao Xuan in the backyard, giving Deputy Prefect Guan the freedom to act as he pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he devoted himself to addressing challenges, Shao Yunduan also assessed the individuals within the government, identifying those who could genuinely be nurtured, discerning the unworthy, and recognizing the fence-sitters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He believed in addressing all issues comprehensively rather than allowing problems to persist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deputy Prefect Guan reveled in this newfound authority, secretly patting himself on the back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confident in his unassailable position within government office, he drew strength from years of managerial experience and a network of loyal subordinates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite Lord Shao’s competence, Deputy Prefect Guan felt assured that, given his role in managing the bailiffs, Lord Shao would not disregard him or refrain from relying on his expertise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, his confidence waned as he soon realized that the current provincial government was no longer a realm where he could command as he pleased.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many scribes were proving less than obedient, challenging his authority.\u003C\u002Fp>",534,"2026-06-03T12:01:11.743Z","2026-06-03T12:01:12.825Z",1,"novelbin.me","7fbc0426df673f966c30395804ee5f6312ff710b650a8d2fa7a8348cc923f433","springtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-chapter-1739","springtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-chapter-1737",2438,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fspringtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-cover.jpg"]
