After the villain was defeated, she still had power in the government

"Of course not." Fu Ping'an shook his head like a rattle and said, "You are also thinking about the unfilial son! After all, Huarong, you have always been considerate and caring for others."

"Yes." Xin Huarong accepted his compliment without any hesitation and said softly, "Don't worry, my lord. When Atang is done with his work, I will ask Xiaoqing to persuade him to move back."

Upon hearing this, Fu Ping'an couldn't help but say yes repeatedly.

"Then, mother..." Xin Huarong stared at him with a slightly distressed look, and sighed, "I've been going out every day recently, and mother seems to have a lot of opinions about me. Yesterday she even sent the nanny beside her to warn me not to go out. I..."

"Well, what does a little old lady know?" Without waiting for Xin Huarong to finish, Fu Ping'an waved his hand and said directly: "Don't pay attention to her. If she dares to stop you from going out, just let her come to me and I will have a good talk with her."

"Row."

With these words, Xin Huarong felt relieved and finally gave Fu Pingan a smile.

Fu Ping'an was also very happy, thinking that the unfilial son would move back to the mansion soon. However, he forgot that the unfilial son was not only the Minister of Justice, but also the Acting Prime Minister, and he had to deal with a lot of things every day.

Either he was in the palace discussing government affairs with the emperor, or he was handling cases in the Ministry of Justice;

If they are not dealing with corrupt officials, they are investigating missing persons cases;

If he is not reviewing government affairs, he is promoting new laws...

……

……

"My Lord, it's not that Xiaoqing doesn't want to help, but she really can't find a chance to ask."

When Fu Ping'an heard Xin Huarong counting on his fingers and listing the recent movements of his unfilial son, the corners of his mouth twitched unconsciously.

"Is he really that busy?" Fu Ping'an looked at her suspiciously, "I am also an official in the court, how come I don't have so many things to do?"

Xin Huarong: “…”

Are you comparable to Atang?

Everyone in Beijing knows that you are a fool. You're lucky you don't hold us back. Who would dare to leave things to you?

Seeing that he had no idea about her, Xin Huarong rolled her eyes silently, not minding making it clearer, "My Lord, you are the Deputy Director of the Ministry of Rites, which is a sinecure. It doesn't matter whether you are there or not, so of course there is nothing to deal with. But Atang is different. He is now the acting prime minister, the head of all officials, the emperor's right-hand man, and he has to inquire about everything in the court. How can you, a Deputy Director of the Ministry of Rites, compare with him?"

"……Oh."

There is no need to put it so bluntly.

Fu Ping'an muttered quietly, paused, and asked, "Then according to what you said, Xiaoqing will never find a chance to speak?"

"There's no rush for this."

Xin Huarong knew very well that there was nothing good in letting Fu Yutang return to the Marquis' Mansion, and he never revealed this matter to Qingrong during this period of time.

Yes, that's right.

Xiaoqing is Qingrong.

The first time she saw Xiaoqing, she knew she was her little sister Qingrong.

While reminiscing about the past with Qingrong, she learned that Qingrong had revealed her identity to Fu Ping'an, and she couldn't help but sigh that Qingrong was too impulsive.

She was worried that Fu Ping'an would harm Qingrong in the future, and she was also worried that Fu Ping'an's brainless talk would lead to someone taking advantage of the situation to attack Fu Yutang. After discussing with Qingrong, they unanimously decided to let her become a truly ordinary person, Xiaoqing.

So, she returned to the mansion and took the initiative, scolding Fu Ping'an for using her and changing Qingrong's identity back to the maid Xiaoqing.
