Chapter 206 Resignation
The people in Qiuchi Kingdom respected Liang Weng, so no one treated Du Mao's family like they did, even Ye Xiang was not accepted.But people in the Liang Mansion still heard a lot of criticism, blaming Liang Weng for going against the sky.

The officials other than Liang Weng were not so lucky. They were more or less run on by their neighbors.Now they sincerely hope that Yao Yu can return to China as soon as possible, so as to rescue them from the sea of ​​suffering.

He Lu was very worried about Liang Weng, "Teacher, you still need to take care of your health. No matter what happened in the past, the situation in the country is now stable. The people of Xian Ji and Qiu Chi still need your support."

Liang Weng said in a joking tone, "When you are old, you should have self-knowledge. You can't stop the young people from making their mark. Your mission to the Northern Wei Dynasty this time is considered meritorious. You should go and ask for a reward from the right minister."

Qin Zhongzhi knew that Liang Weng was reminding himself why Lu Jinsheng should be.But He Lu is already the governor of Hanyang County, if he wants to be promoted, he can only find him a vacancy in the palace.

But before Qin Zhongzhi could speak, He Lu had already said, "Actually, I want to resign from the two prime ministers today. I plan to go home and take care of my father."

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Liang Weng yelled at He Lu bitterly, and then gave Qin Zhongzhi a hard look.

The reason Liang Weng dared to resign was because all his disciples were still in office.These people all vaguely look forward to Liang Wengma.He Lu is one of the best.

Liang Weng originally had great expectations for He Lu, but he unexpectedly resigned suddenly.Liang Weng deeply suspected that Qin Zhongzhi deliberately suppressed people from his lineage.

Qin Zhongzhi was shot innocently this time, he really didn't know about it!He Lu has already surrendered to the girl, so there is absolutely no need to suppress him.

He Lu said frankly, "The students know that they have let their mentor down. It's just that the students went to the north with the Wei army this time. They saw a lot of life and death. Often people who are good during the day are gone at night. Students can't help but reflect. This life is so short, if you don’t spend your time on things you like, wouldn’t it be a waste? The student has already made up his mind that he will inherit my father’s blacksmith shop when he returns.”

Qin Zhongzhi tentatively asked in disbelief, "So what you said about not wasting your life is... blacksmithing?"

He Lu nodded affirmatively, "Exactly. You don't know. There are many skills in blacksmithing, such as the temperature of the furnace, first of all..."

Qin Zhongzhi felt that He Lu's chatterbox was about to start again, so he immediately stopped him and said, "Wait, wait. A certain is not interested in blacksmithing. We will discuss your resignation later. Weng Liang dragged his sick body to wait for you. , I waited in the hall early. I must be tired at this time. Why don't you send Liang Weng back to the mansion first."

Liang Weng also felt that there were some things that he couldn't ask He Lu in front of Qin Zhongzhi, and he also agreed, "If that's the case, the old man will take his leave first."

Qin Zhongzhi bowed respectfully, "Please, Mr. Zuo Xiang."

He Lu also knew that Liang Weng must have a lot of things to ask him in private, so he also left and sent Liang Weng back to his residence.

Tangxi left the palace with them at first, and waited for Liang Weng to sit in the carriage before saying, "Your Excellency will send Prime Minister Zuo back to the mansion, and the servant girl will go home to tidy up first. The official house has not been cleaned for half a year, so it must be a bit messy."

He Lu nodded, "Well, you go back first. I will go back as soon as possible after I send off my mentor."

Tangxi saluted Liang Weng and He Lu respectively, and then headed towards He Lu's official residence.Not long after walking, Tangxi's figure disappeared into the street, and no one around him noticed the difference.

When Tangxi returned to the Palace of Political Affairs, Qin Zhongzhi was reading the memorials in the palace.Seeing Tangxi coming in, he got up and asked, "Are you Tangxi?"

Tangxi knelt down on one knee, "I have seen Mr. Right."

Qin Zhongzhi smiled and gave Tangxi a hand, "Sit down and talk."

"Tangxi dare not."

Qin Zhongzhi smiled and said, "You and I are both the servants of Immortal Fairy, and we can be regarded as colleagues. There is no distinction between high and low, so why not sit?"

Tangxi thought for a while and sat down as promised.

Qin Zhongzhi also personally poured a cup of tea for Tangxi, "Tell me, why did He Lu suddenly want to resign?"

Tangxi said concisely, "Xian Ji hopes that Master He can concentrate on developing weapons. In order to avoid people's eyes and ears, Master He resigned from office and returned home. He even sent a servant girl to protect him. It's just that Master He spent a lot of money in developing weapons. Immortal Fairy Some worry that the current national treasury is not enough to support Mr. He."

Qin Zhongzhi waved his hand and said very richly, "It's just money, don't worry about it. I will report it to Immortal Fairy. After the new emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty ascended the throne, he promoted Immortal Fairy's uncle Xie Fangming according to the agreement. Xie Fangming has also sent the word to everyone in the clans , said that he built the Clothes Tomb on Fuqiling for their ancestors, so the timing turned around. Now there are several clans who intend to build a Clothes Tomb on Fuqiling, and the rewards are very high. So the money You needn't worry."

Tangxi nodded, "That's very good."

Qin Zhongzhi smiled and said, "You cherish your words like gold. Immortal Fairy put you next to He Lu, but it will hurt you." Qin Zhongzhi still has a headache when he thinks of He Lu talking non-stop.

In fact, Qin Zhongzhi still had one thing that he didn't tell Tangxi.The Zhu family's share was delayed for some time because it had to be packed skillfully into the logs.It is estimated that in another month, it will be shipped to Qiuchi.By then, Qiu Chi will really not be short of money.

After seeing Qin Zhongzhi, Tangxi went back to He Lu's official residence and began to clean it carefully.

He Lu didn't come back with a tired face until it was dark.Tangxi first poured him a cup of tea.Go to the stove again and bring the rice porridge that has been warm.

He Lu sighed, leaned against the charcoal basin, and sipped the rice porridge contentedly, "Even if Immortal Fairy won't let me resign, I'm a little tired of this officialdom. In the past, the teacher rarely entertained his colleagues, but now... …Ugh……"

Tangxi originally thought that He Lu would continue talking, but he didn't expect him to stop, and lowered his head to search around in his sleeve pocket.Finally, he took out a small wooden box and handed it to Tangxi.

Tangxi didn't expect, "For the servant girl?"

He Lu blushed and nodded.

When Tangxi opened the small wooden box, there was a thumb-shaped cover inside. There was still a pocket on the cover, which seemed to be movable.

He Lu nana said, "I know, Xian Ji asked you to protect me because I wronged you. I have nothing to give you... so I had to make one myself. Ah! Don't worry, I have already reported this matter Immortal Fairy, she agrees, so you can use it with peace of mind."

Tangxi's eyes turned red, "Thank you. The servant girl likes it very much."

With this, can she draw a bow and shoot arrows again?

When He Lu saw Tangxi wiping away his tears, he panicked, "Don't cry. Don't keep yelling like a maidservant. You will come back to your hometown with me in the future, and it will be very eye-catching if you say that again." He looked at her again. That fake thumb, "Try it quickly, if the size is not suitable, I will change it for you."

Hearing this, Tangxi gently wiped away her tears, and said with a smile, "Okay. I'll give it a try."
