    Yan Zhigao was ostracized in the state government, and Mrs. Li was also alienated by the female relatives of wealthy families in Xingzhou. Many families held poetry gatherings, flower appreciation parties, etc., but did not invite the Yan family.

    One day, after Daohua finished her class, Mrs. Li was instructing her on female beauty. At this time, Yan Zhigao came back from the office covered in sweat.

    "Where have you gone, Master? Why are you covered in sweat?" Mrs. Li said as she walked towards Yan Zhigao to help him escape from the government.

    Yan Zhigao sighed: "The rainy season is here, and I was worried about the river embankments within my jurisdiction, so I ran to take a look."

    It is now June, and the weather is already very hot. After running outside for a day, his underwear is soaked through.

    Daohua didn¡¯t want to stay in the house for too long, so when she walked out of the house, she thought of her tanned daddy, and she didn¡¯t feel very good.

    Faced with the ostracism of his colleagues, his father, who comes from a weak family background, can only do everything possible by himself to prevent government affairs from going wrong and his subordinates to put a damper on him.

    Daohua looked at Wang Maner: "The mung bean smoothie should be chilled soon. Go get some quickly. Father should be very thirsty now."

    Wang Maner left, Yan Zhigao also changed into home clothes, and Daohua went back to the house. As soon as she entered, she heard Mrs. Li's worried voice.

    "I still have to inspect the river embankment tomorrow? Can't I send someone else to do it?"

    Yan Zhigao shook his head: "It's impossible not to go. If we send others to check, they will take a rest for a day and then come back to tell me that nothing happened. Can I rest assured?"

    Mrs. Li frowned and said dissatisfied: "The people in this state government are too"

    Yan Zhigao waved his hand: "It's just suppression by officialdom. I don't have a strong family background. If I can't bear this anger, how can I do anything in the future? Besides, there are other reasons for me to personally check the river embankment."

    As he spoke, Yan Zhigao frowned again.

    "There is a Grand Canal flowing through Xingzhou. It stands to reason that a sum of money will be used to clean and maintain the river embankments every year. However, this sum of money has not yet come out. I guess someone from above has deliberately intercepted it."

    He is not stupid, and the behavior of his colleagues in the state government all shows that someone above him is suppressing him.

    Thinking of Senator Du, who was responsible for all water conservancy matters in Zhongzhou Province, a trace of contempt appeared on Yan Zhigao's lips.

    This person¡¯s mind is really pitiful. Didn¡¯t he just not agree with most people on the decree he wanted to issue when he first came to Zhongzhou?

    That decree was extremely impractical and was eventually rejected by the Chief Secretary.

    In the officialdom, it is too common for everyone to have different political opinions. For such a trivial matter, Counselor Du can hold grudges until now, and he has accepted it.

    Thinking of this, Yan Zhigao narrowed his eyes: "If I don't come up with some real evidence that the river embankment is blocked or damaged, I'm afraid I will never get the money. At that time, what do you want me to use to repair the river?"  embankment?"

    Daohua sat aside and listened silently. She really couldn't help at all with these matters. She could only think of ways to make up for her cheap father's health.

    At this time, Wang Maner came over carrying mung bean smoothie.

    Daohua smiled and gave Yan Zhigaosheng a bowl: "Father, have a bowl of mung bean smoothie and go and heat it up."

    Yan Zhigao was not polite. He was so hot that his throat was smoking when he was running outside. He drank several bowls of mung bean smoothie. If Mrs. Li hadn't stopped him because she was worried about his stomach, he could have finished the whole bowl.

    Early the next morning, Daohua went to the main courtyard to say hello and found that her father had been gone for more than half an hour. At this moment, her genius was slightly bright.

    "Hey, it's not easy to be an official."

    ?¡­

    The lobby of the state government office.

    Yan Zhigao was sitting on the main seat, looking at all the officials in the yamen with a bad look on his face.

    Except for the first day he took office, he had hardly summoned all the officials, but this time, he had to do so.

    Even though he reported the damage to the river bottom under Xingzhou with real evidence, the money for repairing the river embankment was still not approved.

    It is now the end of June, and the rainy season in Xingzhou is in August and September. If the river embankments are not repaired now, once a flood occurs, the people of Xingzhou will be miserable.

    ¡°Let¡¯s talk about it, everyone, who should be sent to the provincial government to collect funds for building river embankments?¡±

    As soon as these words came out, both the Tongzhi and the judge silently lowered their heads and did not look at Yan Zhigao who was sitting in the main seat.

    It¡¯s like this again!

    Whenever he asked for opinions, the officials in the yamen shrank back and did not express their opinions or object to what he said. Every time there was a meeting, they would??He is performing a one-man show.

    "Snapped!"

    Yan Zhigao was filled with anger and slapped his hand hard on the desk.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????Out of the way, the construction of river embankments is a matter of great importance to people's livelihood, and they can ignore it, because they really have a responsibility to the government.

    Yan Zhigao sneered: "You know what will happen if the river embankments are not built and floods occur. By then, I, the magistrate, will definitely not be able to escape, but how can you survive alone?"

    "I know there are people behind you, and they all act like they don't care about themselves, but in this officialdom, it's not that whoever has strong connections can climb up the ladder. If he hasn't done a few things for the people, it's just  I have allowed you to climb to the first and second grades, don¡¯t you feel guilty?¡±

    Hearing this, the officials sitting below lowered their heads. They knew that Master Zhizhou was really angry this time, otherwise, he would not have spoken so straightforwardly.

    Qian Tongzhi thought for a while and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is serious, we"

    Before he finished speaking, he saw Master Xiao, who Yan Zhigao always brought with him, hurried in.

    "What's wrong?"

    Yan Zhigao knows Master Xiao well. If it were not an emergency, he would not come over and interrupt his meeting.

    Master Xiao looked a little anxious and a little excited: "Master, please go home and take a look. Someone noble has arrived."

    Yan Zhigao looked puzzled: "Noble, what noble?"

    Master Xiao lowered his voice: "The one at the inn."

    Hearing this, Yan Zhigao suddenly stood up and quickly walked down from his seat. When he was about to go out, he turned back to Tongzhi and others and said, "You all should leave." After saying that, he quickly walked towards  Trotted past the backyard.

    ¡°Master Xiao, what happened? Is there anything we can do to help?¡±

    Qian Tongzhi and Wang Tongpan looked at each other and immediately stopped Master Xiao who was about to leave with a smile.

    They heard just now that Master Xiao said the word "noble".

    Not everyone can be called a noble person these days.

    Master Xiao politely exchanged a few words with the two adults, and finally said: "Two adults, I can't comment on the affairs of Mr. Yan's family. However, if you want to help, you might as well think about how to help you get the building back.  Payment for the embankment?¡±

    After saying that, he smiled, then quickly turned around and left.

    "Hmph, this Master Xiao is quite a slippery man." Wang Tongpuan snorted coldly, and then called for the boy, "Go and ask, who is coming to the Yan family?"

    Soon, the boy came back sweating profusely.

    "Master, I didn't find out who came from the Yan family. However, when I came back, I saw Mr. Zhou Chengye, the grandson of the Zhou family, entering the Yan Mansion, saying that he was going to meet guests."

    Hearing this, the expressions of Wang Tongpan and Qian Tongzhi both changed.

    ¡° If Zhou¡¯s parents and grandson are allowed to brave the scorching sun to make a trip in person, the identity of the person coming is definitely not simple.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
