Kick out the general as soon as you are reborn

As soon as Liu Yanyan arrived at the Duke's Mansion, she saw from afar that Butler Liu had been waiting there long ago. When he saw Yuzhu see the carriage, he ran up from afar, waited beside the carriage, and reached out to help her get off the carriage.

Liu Yanyan put her hand on Yuzhu's hand, stepped on the horse stool and carefully got off the carriage.

Butler Liu stepped forward and said with concern, "Miss, the master is waiting for you in the main courtyard. Shall we go in now?"

A trace of heartache flashed across Liu Yanyan's eyes, and she sighed and said, "Didn't I let Daddy eat by himself? He didn't have to wait for me. I came back late because of something, and Daddy still needs to take care of his health. How can I let Daddy wait for me? Uncle Liu, why don't you try to persuade him?"

Butler Liu smiled bitterly and said helplessly, "I have advised him several times, but the master said he is not hungry. I have no choice but to wait for the young lady at the door early, thinking that the master will definitely listen to the young lady."

Liu Yanyan knew that her father was stubborn, so she nodded helplessly and walked towards the mansion with a few people. Her father was really a worry. How could his body bear not eating? His body had not recovered yet. How could he keep healthy if he was hungry every day?

Liu Yanyan came to the main courtyard. As soon as she entered the gate, she saw her father sitting on a stone bench with a book in his hand. He was so engrossed in reading that he didn't even notice she was there.

Liu Yanyan quietly walked over, snatched the book from her father's hand, and said, "Dad, it's time to eat. Why are you so engrossed in reading?"

Duke Liu smiled and said, "Okay, I won't read it anymore. Let's go eat and go."

Liu Yanyan followed behind her father, walked into the house, and went straight to the side hall. She took the towel handed to her by Yuzhen, washed her face and hands, and then checked that everything was cleaned up before coming to the dining table.

Liu Yanyan smiled, picked up a piece of donkey meat with chopsticks and said to Daddy, "Dad, eat more. I heard that donkey meat is very nutritious. You must be starving if you don't eat so late. You don't have to wait for me to eat in the future. Sometimes I come home late. After all, Nannan is not the same as before."

Duke Liu smiled and said, "Dad, I'm not hungry, so I'm waiting for you to eat together. Dad is an adult, so you don't have to worry about me. Why did you come back so late today? What happened?"

Liu Yanyan sighed and said, "Today, Wang Yaozu and Li Li, merchants from the Wang family outside the city, were sentenced to divorce. I watched them being executed and watched the bailiffs return the dowry of the girl from the Li family before I came back." Otherwise, I'm afraid the dowry would not be returned.

Duke Liu smiled and handed a piece of fish maw to Nannan, saying, "Nannan, you are amazing. Daddy is proud of you. You have done a good thing just after taking office!" He was just afraid that Wang Yaozu would hold a grudge against him. He had to get someone to give him a beating.

Liu Yanyan smiled and said, "I'm very happy that Li Li can get a divorce and leave the Wang family. When I saw her, she was almost beaten to death. She was so pitiful."

Duke Liu didn't care about this. He just felt sorry for Nannan for not taking good care of herself. He kept picking food for her, not noticing that Nannan's bowl was already full. "Eat more. You look tired and thin."

Liu Yanyan subconsciously touched her chin and said helplessly, "Daddy, you are talking nonsense. Nannan has obviously gained weight during this period of time, but Daddy thinks I am thin."

"She's not fat. Where is she fat? Eat more. She's the most beautiful. Where is she fat?"

Liu Yanyan was helpless when she saw her father like this, but she didn't refuse. She ate all the dishes that her father picked for her, and also ate a bowl of rice. She was so full that she put down the chopsticks in her hand. "Daddy, Nannan really can't eat anymore, Daddy, eat more."

Duke Liu looked at this and did not force him. He ate some dishes and two bowls of rice and put down his chopsticks.

Liu Yanyan looked at her father and saw that he was full, then bowed and said, "Dad, Nannan is back to Cuizhuxuan."

Duke Liu smiled and said, "Go back and have a good rest."

Liu Yanyan brought a few people back to Cuizhuxuan. She went to the desk in the room and began to read the scriptures. She read until late at night. Then, with the help of Yuzhu and Yuzhen, she lay down on the bed and fell into a deep sleep.

Yuzhu and Yuzhen looked distressed. They covered the young lady with a quilt and tucked in the corners. They didn't understand why the young lady made herself so tired. What was the good of being a female official?

Yuzhu blew out the candle, took Yuzhen to the low couch in the outer room, and lay down to keep watch.

next day

Liu Yanyan stretched hard, then lazily got off the carriage, lifted the curtain, and under the escort of Liu Wu, she walked into the yamen and went straight to the backyard. When she saw the locust tree in the yard again, the strange emotions in her heart disappeared.

Liu Yanyan pushed open the door, walked into the room, picked up the file on the table and read it carefully. This time she did not fly into a rage, but read it carefully bit by bit quietly, wondering if she could do better if she were to make the judgment herself.

When Director Zhang arrived at the yamen, he did not see Liu Yanyan and went straight to the backyard. As soon as he entered the yard, he saw Liu Wu guarding the door. He knew that Liu Yanyan must be reading files in the house. He did not go forward to disturb her, but quietly returned to his room.

Liu Yanyan read the files for a long time and couldn't help but stand up and rub her dizzy head. Just as she was about to go to the courtyard next door to have a meal, she heard a noise outside the yamen.

Driven by curiosity, Liu Yanyan took Liu Wu out. When they arrived at the gate of the government office, they saw Li Hui with his wife and daughter. They stopped Zhang, the chief official, who was about to leave. "Master Zhang, thank you. You have granted a divorce to my sister and asked someone to return the dowry. My sister is finally saved."

Director Zhang said awkwardly, "This is what I should do. It's not worthy of praise for what I should do." He then saw Liu Yanyan hiding at the gate of the yamen. He walked forward and pulled her forward, and said to Li Hui, "If you want to thank someone, you should thank Lord Liu. Two people assisted in handling this case. How can you thank just me?" After that, he pushed Liu Yanyan forward.

Liu Yanyan was so embarrassed that she looked at Li Hui and said, "You're welcome, you're welcome. This is what we should do. You really don't have to make a special trip here."

Li Hui looked at the crowd that followed behind to watch the excitement, and whispered, "When thanking the adults, we must be sincere and do it openly to let more people know the good things you two have done and let more people know that you two are good officials." After that, he took out two pieces of calligraphy from his arms, which read "Pleading for the People".

Manager Zhang took the letter with a look of excitement. This was the first time that someone thanked him like this. It seemed that he had been really wrong in the past, extremely wrong.

Liu Yanyan took the letter, with a hint of pride on her face, and said to Li Hui, "You are thoughtful."

Only then did Li Hui take his wife and daughter, walk through the bustling crowd in front of the yamen, and walk away.

Regent Zhou Yanze, who was hiding behind the crowd, saw Liu Yanyan's beautiful face and couldn't help feeling proud. She was indeed the person he liked. She was different from others and was very kind-hearted.

Zhou Yanze kept looking at Liu Yanyan until she left with the calligraphy and painting, then he left with a few guards.
