The guards who followed Song Hanyan were even more stunned.
When did the general become so shameless?
Finally, on the fourth day, Nam Gyi officially began her report on her duties.
Song Hanyan personally escorted Nanzhi to the palace gate.
"Zhizhi, I'll bring you lunch."
Song Hanyan took the opportunity to squeeze her small hand.
Today, Nanzhi wore an official robe, her hair was tied up high, and her eyebrows exuded a more heroic air.
This was the first time Song Hanyan had seen Zhizhi like this, and he liked her very much.
Nan Zhi: "You're a general, is it appropriate for you to bring me food?"
Song Hanyan was truly reluctant to part with his wife.
"How about I resign from my official post and bring you meals every day?"
Seeing his enthusiastic expression, Nanzhi slapped him across the face.
These past few days, he's become increasingly unruly.
Watching Nan Zhi walk away, Song Hanyan finally withdrew his gaze.
He coldly said to the man beside him, "Return to camp."
The guard was so shocked he couldn't speak; just moments ago, the lady had been so tender with him.
Why is it that when we get here, things are still the same as before?
The general is a true hypocrite.
A gentle breeze blew by as Nan Zhi, dressed in an official robe, strolled casually along the palace path.
Cherry: "Master, you are riding high on the spring breeze, that's exactly how you are right now."
Nanzhi did not hesitate.
"Of course, I am the only female official in the court."
"But what awaits the master is no ordinary trouble," Cherry said worriedly.
Those officials in the Ministry of Revenue are not easily fooled.
Although the master had political achievements, a female official was still just a female official.
As she reached the entrance, Nanzhi looked up at the plaque in front of her.
The powerful and vigorous characters of "Ministry of Revenue" instilled a sense of conviction in Nanzhi's heart.
To seek happiness for all people.
When the Grand Minister of Agriculture arrived, not a single person from the Ministry of Revenue came to greet him.
Nan Zhi didn't care at all; these people were clearly trying to embarrass her.
He apprehended an official.
"Excuse me, where is Tao Hongtu?"
The official was stunned; it was the first time anyone had dared to call him by his given name.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a female adult.
There was only one female official in the court at that time, and it goes without saying who she was.
"This humble official greets Lord Nan."
Nan Zhi: "No need for formalities. Where is Tao Hongtu?"
The junior official pointed in a direction.
Nanzhi walked in that direction.
When they arrived, they saw a dense crowd of people, which made Nan Zhi's head spin.
She coughed, her voice strained, "Tao Hongtu, who is Lord Tao?"
The bustling Ministry of Revenue suddenly fell silent, and everyone turned to look at the entrance.
The newcomer was dressed in a red official robe, with fair skin, a heroic air about him, and a dashing demeanor in every gesture.
The officials were momentarily stunned; what a handsome scholar he was.
At this moment, Tao Hongtu came out from the inner room.
"This is Nan Zhi, Lord Nan?"
Nanzhi nodded.
Here, her official rank was higher than everyone else's, so she did not need to bow.
"His Majesty sent me here. From now on, we are all one family. I hope you gentlemen will give us your guidance." Nanzhi bowed to the crowd.
Support?
Zong Qisheng sneered.
What a joke! She's now a second-rank official, and no one else holds a higher rank than her.
They have no right to offer them help.
Nanzhi ignored these malicious glances.
He walked straight up to Tao Hongtu.
He asked earnestly, "Sir, may I ask where my workstation is?"
Tao Hongtu pointed in a direction.
After Nanzhi left, Tao Hongtu watched her retreating figure thoughtfully.
At noon, Song Hanyan delivered lunch to the Ministry of Revenue as promised.
Nanzhi asked in surprise, "Didn't we agree to meet at the palace gate?"
Song Hanyan: "I had something to do in the palace, so I came directly here."
The guard behind him curled his lip.
He thought to himself: "General, you're such a liar. You're clearly just here to protect your wife from being bullied."
However, he certainly dared not say these words aloud.
Song Hanyan opened the food box for Nanzhi and placed the contents one by one on the table.
The fragrance instantly filled the entire household area.
Curious onlookers came to take a look and saw General Song having dinner with Lord Nan, and their behavior was quite intimate.
Zong Qisheng was very curious when he heard this, because it was said that Nanzhi already had a husband in the countryside.
So he came before the two of them.
"Master Nan is truly capable, actually making me deliver food to General Chao."
Song Hanyan's expression suddenly turned cold.
Nan Zhi: "The adults are interfering a bit too much."
Zong Qisheng felt that Nanzhi was avoiding his words, and there must be something fishy going on between the two of them.
As she questioned him, everyone in the Ministry of Revenue put down what they were doing and listened intently.
"General Song, I've heard that Lady Nan has already married in the countryside. She's really not behaving like a proper wife. You should be careful, General, and don't let yourself be harmed by such a fickle woman."
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Hanyan drew his sword and held it to Zong Qisheng's neck.
Zong Qisheng's leg trembled. "General, what does this mean?"
Song Hanyan said coldly, "What business is it of yours that I, the general, am having dinner with my wife!"
Nanzhi silently continued picking at her food, then looked up as if remembering something.
Everyone thought he was going to offer advice.
But then I heard...
"Song Hanyan, take him out and beat him, he's disturbing my meal."
Song Hanyan then pulled the person out, and soon after, cries of pain echoed from the courtyard.
Everyone understood.
General Song's wife is none other than Lady Nan!
No wonder General Song was so angry.
What's even more unpredictable is that Nanjing University student.
The noises outside seemed to have no effect on her at all.
For Nan Zhi, having her husband to support her is a blessing.
Another day has passed.
For the next few days, Nam Zhi remained idle at the Ministry of Revenue.
