Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home
Chapter 1738

Chapter 1738: Taking Charge Chapter 1738: Taking Charge Editor: Henyee Translations “I’m a representative of the party, committed to serving the people and pursuing their best interestsaEUR”it’s both my duty and a matter of trust bestowed by the Imperial Court.

How could I easily delegate these governmental responsibilities to others?” “Wouldn’t that be a betrayal of both the Imperial Court and the people?” “If you’ve truly recovered, feel free to resume your office duties tomorrow.

I have full confidence in your ability to handle the job excellently!” Don’t even consider taking on tasks that aren’t rightfully yours.

Deputy Prefect Guan proved to be more audacious than Shao Yunduan had anticipated.

Despite Shao Yunduan’s attempt to extend some courtesy, Deputy Prefect Guan believed he could push for more.

Flashing a forced smile, he assured, “Rest assured, Lord, I’ll handle my responsibilities.

Just focus on your recovery!

I managed all affairs in Anze Province before your arrival, so I’m well-versed and won’t make any mistakes!

As Deputy Prefect, it’s my duty to assist you!” Ignoring the unreasonable man, Shao Yunduan dismissed him with a few words.

To his surprise, the next day at the government office, Deputy Prefect Guan acted as if he were in charge, issuing orders with authority.

Being Deputy Prefect, he already had supporters who flattered him.

With his arrival, they saw a leader and eagerly followed suit.

Observing him seamlessly taking charge and managing affairs as usual brought even more joy to his demeanor!

What did this signify?

It meant that within the government office, Deputy Prefect Guan’s status remained unshakable, and his influence persisted.

This development alleviated tension among the office staff.

Jia Heming and other scribes, who were not accustomed to Deputy Prefect Guan and were hired by Shao Yunduan, found it unbearable.

After some deliberation, they decided to adhere to the established rules in the government office.

Everyone would perform their duties impartially, following Lord Shao’s instructions or official protocols.

In case Deputy Prefect Guan issued any directives, they would seek confirmation from Lord Shao before complyingaEUR| Observing Deputy Prefect Guan’s enthusiastic demeanor, Shao Yunduan noticed he immediately assumed a masterly role upon returning to work.

Choosing to avoid the situation, Shao Yunduan opted to spend more time with Qiao Xuan in the backyard, giving Deputy Prefect Guan the freedom to act as he pleased.

As he devoted himself to addressing challenges, Shao Yunduan also assessed the individuals within the government, identifying those who could genuinely be nurtured, discerning the unworthy, and recognizing the fence-sitters.

He believed in addressing all issues comprehensively rather than allowing problems to persist.

Deputy Prefect Guan reveled in this newfound authority, secretly patting himself on the back.

Confident in his unassailable position within government office, he drew strength from years of managerial experience and a network of loyal subordinates.

Despite Lord Shao’s competence, Deputy Prefect Guan felt assured that, given his role in managing the bailiffs, Lord Shao would not disregard him or refrain from relying on his expertise.

However, his confidence waned as he soon realized that the current provincial government was no longer a realm where he could command as he pleased.

Many scribes were proving less than obedient, challenging his authority.
