would persist indefinitely into the future, resulting in significant long-term repercussions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Adding to the strain, the relationship between the Fan Family and Lord Shao had deteriorated to the point where they couldn’t afford any further loss of reputationâ€¦ Old Lady Fan concurred, summoning her two sons and inquiring about any viable solutions they might have devised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their plan had initially revolved around a private meeting with Lord Shao, offering him increased benefits compared to previous years in a plea for leniency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, despite their efforts, when Lord Shao greeted them warmly, he steadfastly refused their offerings, opting instead to lecture them tirelessly on the laws of the Great Qin Empire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The elder members of the Fan family found themselves rendered speechless, their chests constricted with tension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First Old Master Fan clenched his teeth, realizing that even doubling the benefits promised to Lord Shao failed to sway him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, a bitter smile crept onto the face of the other elder, First Old Master Fan, as he acknowledged Lord Shao’s indifference to their modest offerings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It seemed evident that such a trifling sum held no allure for him, especially considering his substantial wealth, which surpassed 600,000 taels of silver without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With covert operations ruled out, the two elders reluctantly abandoned their initial strategy, compelled to explore alternative avenues.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even in the absence of their mother’s prompting, they were already racking their brains to devise a solution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, enduring such annual losses over an extended period was simply untenable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Learning of their failed attempt to persuade Shao Yunduan, Old Lady Fan’s expression soured with a mixture of anger and disdain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Why must you subject yourselves to such humiliation?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lord Shao will not yield unless we offer him everything we possess!” “Mother speaks the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elder Brother, Second Brother, your judgment has faltered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Are you not aware of the true nature of Lord Shao and his wife?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Do you not grasp how they regard our family?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why must you persist in this futile endeavor?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In my estimation, even if we were to seek an audience, Lord Shao would remain elusive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would it not be wiser to approach Deputy Prefect Guan instead?” The two elder members of the Fan family were taken aback, a realization dawning upon themâ€¦ Second Old Master Fan furrowed his brow once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But can Deputy Prefect Guan assist us, considering his responsibilities over field investigations and tax collection?” Old Lady Fan scoffed, her tone sharp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Isn’t that convenient?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Precisely because he oversees these matters, it’s fitting!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ha, Deputy Prefect Guan has been stationed in Anze Province for a decade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What doesn’t he know?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I refuse to believe there’s no one loyal to him within the government office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he truly wished to conceal something from that Shao character, it would be child’s play!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why didn’t you two consider this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thankfully, we have the insight of the younger generation!” The countenances of the two elder Fan masters soured.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet, Fan Ruyin interjected with a smile, “Mother, don’t fault Elder Brother and Second Brother.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It simply slipped their minds momentarily!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides, as a member of the Fan family, it’s my duty to contribute.” “Hehe, I always knew you were capable and dutiful!” The two elder Fan masters remained silent, their spirits dampened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having failed to secure an audience with Shao Yunduan, they hesitated to approach Deputy Prefect Guan directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, they dispatched a representative to gather information about the inner workings of the office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Failure to devise a successful strategy would leave them with few alternatives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, who would willingly abandon such a significant matter without exerting every effort?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their inquiries, however, yielded increasingly shocking revelationsâ€¦ Having no official ties to the government, they had paid scant attention to the affairs of the state office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their knowledge was limited to the reputation of Lord Shao’s authoritarian rule and the exodus of many longstanding officials and scribes from the government office.\u003C\u002Fp>",672,"2026-06-03T12:01:13.656Z","2026-06-03T12:01:16.301Z",1,"novelbin.me","f2c8a40cc079a5856e1314d05c8e3544caba70e5482c805f285e5db3164629a7","springtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-chapter-1774","springtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-chapter-1773",2438,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fspringtime-farming-a-happy-wife-at-home-cover.jpg"]
