The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 797: Chapter 797: Madam Hou’s Opportunity Chapter 797: Chapter 797: Madam Hou’s Opportunity Qi Chan chuckled, “He was quite fast about it.”

Just as he had expected, the Emperor felt some guilt for the wrongful conviction of Yao Tianqin five years ago, which led to his exile. Without a second word, he restored him to his former official position.

Moreover, although Yao Tianqin didn’t have many friends, he also didn’t have deep enmities with anyone. With his merit established, there was little opposition in the court.

Therefore, the decision was made quickly. Once the practical value of the high-barreled carts was confirmed, the Emperor issued a decree immediately. New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on novelꜰire.net

As for Shu Yu’s case, logically speaking, it shouldn’t be delayed for too long, as she posed even less of a threat to the people in the court.

But to be cautious, Qi Chan still advised her to be more patient.

Shu Yu wasn’t in a rush and remained calm, “Actually, I haven’t suffered much here, but it’s been taxing for you to continuously worry about my affairs.”

“What are you talking about? Do you think the benefit of the Heating Pack was only for you? By giving that thing to me, you’ve also helped me out. Not to mention the Heating Pack, Yao Tianqin’s restoration to his office also owes a part to your efforts.”

Shu Yu laughed, “How come what you said is the same as what Uncle Yao told me? He was also telling my father the other day that since they’ve helped him, once his days get better, he would reciprocate and take care of us. My father is afraid that once he goes back, he would try to help me get absolved. You know, he has just been restored. If my case displeases the Emperor again, wouldn’t it all be for naught? My dad advises him not to rush; the priority is to handle his duties well, whether it’s with his superiors or colleagues, he must first build good relationships. It cannot be like five years ago; just burying his head in work isn’t enough.”

While listening, Qi Chan nodded, but he didn’t expect Lu Erbai to be such a perceptive person.

However, when Shu Yu mentioned ‘superiors,’ his hand suddenly paused.

Yao Tianqin’s superior, isn’t that Gong Qiu?

Thinking of how Gong Qiu had arranged for Cheng Dong to be by the governor’s side for many years, and that there were spies in Hetai Prefecture around the magistrate, he felt that Gong Qiu might be planning something big.

Yao Tianqin had just returned; if he gets involved, he might end up back here.

He needs to discuss this with Yao Tianqin.

Shu Yu naturally noticed Qi Chan’s momentary pause and lowered her eyes, choosing not to say more.

Instead, she asked about the departure time of Yao Tianqin, “I heard from Uncle Yao that the Imperial Decree Officer from the Ministry of Personnel has been staying in Heichang County wanting to meet you. Once he has met you, he will return to the Capital with Uncle Yao and the others. Have you seen this Imperial Decree Officer?”
