Chapter 281 Return
"The Ministry of Revenue returned the document on the grounds that the expenses were unknown." Zhuge Yu looked a little serious, "Maybe I have to trouble Sister Lan, you can go there in person."
Fang Zilan looked puzzled, "When did Lord Pei be so disgraceful?"
"Mr. Pei Xiaoze is reasonable, but Duke Yan is not that easy to talk to." Zhuge Yu lowered his eyes and looked at the document in her hand, and advised: "Sister Lan, please read it carefully. Never let the people from the Ministry of Revenue pick out any mistakes."
"The Duke of the State is no longer the Minister of Revenue, and he can even stretch his hand so long?" Fang Zilan snorted coldly, but he still patiently read the Chinese book carefully.
The more she looked, the frowning became tighter. "There are some of the questions in this, and I'll ask someone to verify it first. If it's correct, I'll go to the Ministry of Revenue in person."
"Okay." Zhuge Yu nodded, then called his subordinates to come in and explained the parts that needed verification one by one.
Fang Zilan roughly passed the document on the case and assigned it to different personnel for processing. It was already noon after finishing her work. She felt hungry and was about to go out to eat something when she saw Zhuge Yu walking in with lunch.
Seeing this, she couldn't help but sigh, "A Yu, you are so appropriate."
While putting lunch on the table, Zhuge Yu listened to her sigh: "I thought that the last son in a family like A Yu must be regarded as a treasure and raised with great value. He never thought he could take care of others so well."
"The Zhuge family in the capital is my generation, except for my brother." Zhuge Yu looked indifferent, "The elder brothers are mostly there, so I can only take care of my grandfather and elders in the family. Over time, I will get used to it."
Fang Zilan was keenly aware that she might have said something she shouldn't have said, so she was silent for a moment before speaking again and said, "Speaking of this, I have been banning the government for these days, and the government office has accumulated a lot of official duties, so I'm afraid I'll be busy for a while."
Zhuge Yu didn't say anything, but just looked at her steadily, making her hands holding chopsticks stop, "A Yu?"
"Sister Lan, do you really want to keep Mo Han in the capital?" Zhuge Yu asked suddenly. Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment and whispered: "That boy Mo Han has always had a very good idea, I'm afraid I can't help it."
A hint of surprise flashed in Zhuge Yu's eyes, "I can't help you?"
"Yes." Fang Zilan smiled and said helplessly: "He relied on me to spoil him. He has been like this since childhood. As long as he spoke, I can't do anything to him."
"From childhood to adulthood?" Zhuge Yu repeated this word, and Fang Zilan had a little more nostalgia in her expression. "We grew up together since we were young, but unfortunately we got separated later. Now that we find him again, I can't bear to push him away."
"The land of tigers and wolfs is not suitable for white rabbits to survive." Zhuge Yu looked away and said coldly: "If he stays, he will definitely die without a burial place."
Upon hearing this, Fang Zilan murmured to herself, "I am here, can't I protect him well?"
Zhuge Yu glanced at her and shook his head gently, "If you stop, you will suffer." After that, he turned around and left.
Fang Zilan finished lunch without knowing the taste, stood up and planned to walk in the yard, but then he heard from the subordinate officials that the verification part had been completed.
She checked again and confirmed that there was no problem, so she left for the Ministry of Revenue. The current Minister of Revenue was originally a disciple of the Pei family. She entered the Ministry of Revenue when she first entered the officialdom. She was promoted by Duke Pei Qingqing of the Kingdom of the State.
Although the Minister of Revenue is standing behind the Pei family, he is not rigid and powerful. On the contrary, he is smiling and pleasant to talk. No matter what Fang Zilan says, he nods to say yes. However, when he talks about the topic, he looks at the left.
After a whole hour, Fang Zilan and him were so dry that their mouths were dry, but he still smiled and served tea and water to persuade her not to get angry. Her smile was like a lucky cat that made her rich, which made her lose her temper and finally had to go home.
Zhuge Yu was not surprised to see her return without success, but just comforted him: "The Minister of Revenue is a sleek person, and it is not easy to deal with him. This matter is not urgent, and you must make a long-term plan."
Fang Zilan thought to herself that she really couldn't deal with this kind of person who was slippery and like a loach. She immediately put the document back and said exhausted: "A Yu, let's go here first today. You let everyone go, I'll find a way tomorrow."
Zhuge Yu agreed and sent everyone away, and saw Fang Zilan dragging her long shadow and slowly walking out of the government office. He thought about it, but he couldn't catch up.

After Fang Zilan returned home, she heard Awan, Mo Han and Deputy General Cao talk and laugh in the front hall, and had a great time talking.
The housekeeper who was following her looked at her dim expression and was about to say something to explain, but she saw her take a deep breath and walk in with great strides.
When the three of them saw Fang Zilan coming in, they stopped talking at the same time. They saw her walking straight to Mo Han, and said with a gloomy expression: "Mo Han, I will give you seven days at most. In seven days, if you don't go back to Mushan Pass, I will let Lao Cao take you back in person."
"Sister Lan, are you going to drive me away?" Mo Han stared at the person in front of her, and she said with a stern face: "I have already made it very clear to you. You can't keep it in the capital."
Mo Han didn't say anything, Awan and Deputy General Cao looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a moment, but wanted to persuade him but did not dare to persuade him.
Fang Zilan's eyes swept across the three of them and finally fell on Deputy General Cao, "Old Cao, go and prepare a visit for me. I will visit the Duke of the Kingdom's Mansion the next day."
As soon as she finished speaking, before Deputy General Cao could speak, Awan couldn't help asking, "What are you doing in Pei's family?"
"Of course, I have to discuss with the Duke of the Kingdom of China." Fang Zilan's expression was a little slow, and her voice was a little tired. "I'm tired and I'm going to go back to my room to rest. Lao Cao, don't forget to prepare a message for me."
"Okay." Deputy General Cao responded. She stopped saying anything, turned around and left the front hall, went back to the room to rest.
The next day, Fang Zilan woke up very early. After having breakfast, she went directly to the government office. After sorting out the documents again, she sent someone to the Ministry of Revenue. As expected, she was returned intact.
On the third day, Fang Zilan went to the Duke of the Kingdom of Shin, but was turned away. The servant in the mansion said that the Duke of Shin was sick and had been off for several days in the morning court, let alone meeting guests.
Fang Zilan secretly inquired and found that Pei Qingqing was ill the day after her government office sent the documents to the Ministry of Revenue. After that, the documents were returned by the Ministry of Revenue, which delayed the few days after her reinstatement.
She wondered in her heart that Pei Yuqing had been in the officialdom for many years, so there was no need to make things difficult for her. What's more, the Southeast is in a time to spend money, and Li Shengxuan was also very concerned. Pei Yuqing instructed the Ministry of Revenue to do nothing at this time, so he was not afraid of causing trouble. Could it be that Pei Yuqing was really sick?
However, no matter how she thought about it, the Ministry of Revenue remained unmoved. After two days of delay, she finally accepted the document, but she had no further information.
While waiting for news from the Ministry of Revenue, she was trying to ask Deputy General Cao to send Mo Han back. Who would have thought that neither of them had waited for the news that the Miluo people were attacking.
