Chapter 988 Farewell
Chen Huanli covered his face with tears rolling in his eyes, but he was still apologizing: "I'm sorry, master, I was wrong. I shouldn't have rushed to disturb the empress..."

"She's not a queen yet."

"Sooner or later she will be."

"Okay, there's no need to mention this matter again." Lu Qinghan raised his hand, "Tomorrow I will set off for She County. As for you, I will send someone to send you and your mother-in-law back to your hometown in the countryside."

"Why?" Chen Huanli raised his head abruptly, in disbelief, "Did the master go to the post without bringing a concubine?"

"No." Lu Qinghan said, "It's a long way to go, and your mother-in-law is not in good health, you'd better send her back to her hometown to live in peace." He took out a bank note, "This is the salary I have saved for the official in the past few years , Although not much, it is enough for you and your mother-in-law to buy a few acres of land in the countryside and hire two people to work."

"No, I'm not going back to my hometown, I'm going to She County with my master!" Chen Huanli hurriedly grabbed his sleeve, "Master, I promise I won't do anything wrong again in the future, I will settle down and stop making my own decisions , please forgive me this time!"

Lu Qinghan sighed: "I didn't do it for this matter, it was a decision I had already thought about. The county magistrate's salary is meager, and he has to pay his own money to manage a group of subordinates in the county government. There is really no money left to support you and your mother-in-law. You take this money back to the countryside to take care of your mother-in-law, and if I can return to the capital in the future, I will send someone to pick you up."

Chen Huanli shook his head: "I'm not afraid of suffering, as long as I can follow the master, even if I eat chaff and vegetables, I'm willing!"

"I've made up my mind." Lu Qinghan walked away with a flick of his sleeves.

"Master..." Chen Huanli cried and looked at his back, unable to control himself.

The next day, Lu Qinghan led an old servant and left the capital in a carriage, and saw Li Diyao waiting on the side of the road.

Li Diyao is still wearing a blue shirt, just like when he was a teenager.

Lu Qinghan felt that his heart was already old.

He got out of the carriage, came to Li Diyao, smiled and said: "I thought I would leave in a miserable way, but I didn't expect Yuezhi to give me a ride."

Read it is Li Diyao's words.

Once they were like-minded, like-minded friends.

Ever since Lu Qinghan married Chen Huanli instead, the relationship between them could no longer continue.

Li Diyao took out a letter of faith and handed it to him: "Although we have many differences in political views, I know that you are a clean and honest official. I am afraid that you will not be able to afford the travel expenses this time, right?"

Lu Qinghan smiled frankly: "I still understand that I am a human being. I am really short of money, so I can't even bring my family members with me."

"Take it." Li Diyao shoved the faith into his hands, "Being a local parental official is far more difficult than you imagined, and it will be even more difficult if you don't even have the money to pay the subordinates."

Lu Qinghan thought for a while, and took it over: "Brother will come back in the future, and I will definitely return the gift I gave you today."

Li Diyao smiled: "Although my sister didn't ask me to tell you, half of it is a gift from my sister. If possible, you should take your wife and children with you to the post."

Lu Qinghan froze.

"Brother Lu, have a good journey, and we will meet later!" Li Diyao cupped his hands, turned around, got on his horse and left.

Lu Qinghan took out the bank notes in the envelope, there were two in total, one was 5000 taels of silver, a total of 1 taels.

For a magistrate who only has a monthly salary of a few dozen taels of silver, this amount of money is undoubtedly a huge sum of money.

Enough to solve his urgent needs.
