Star Iron: Maple of Reincarnation

After several days of renovation, the Shen Ce Mansion was restored from its original smoky ruins to the basic appearance of a building. At least the interior scenery has changed a lot, and the rooms now have their own appearance. Although they are still extremely simple, for Fu Xuan, she is not picky about the location of her office.

She wanted to transfer this part of the people's manpower to repair other places, but most of her subordinates refused to do so, saying that Shen Ce Mansion was also the political center of Luofu and the face of Luofu. Fu Xuan was not willing to argue with them on this matter, so she acquiesced.

At this moment, she had just finished dealing with the official documents that were urgently sent to her. As for those that were not important for the time being, she had pushed them aside. She was sitting in front of the desk next to the window, looking at the astrology stone in her hand. This was her way of killing time when she was bored. Looking at the destiny of the world, her mind was immersed in it, and time would pass very quickly.

She often did this as early as the Taibu period. After all, no matter how busy the Taibu Division was, there would always be downtime. Moreover, she was too efficient and would always finish the tasks she was responsible for long before her subordinates, so that a lot of time would be wasted.

For her, unlike Qingque, she didn't have a hobby like Dihuan and Qiongyu, so she used reading people's pulses as a way to pass the time. It's not that she likes it very much, she's just... used to it.

I am used to loneliness, used to the various aspects of human life, used to my duties as the fortune teller of Xianzhou, and used to my life which is predetermined by fate.

After meeting Mo Feng, this habit gradually disappeared.

For almost any immortal species, time is the most common and money-losing commodity. Immortal species may lack everything except time. They can listen to storytelling for a whole day. But for Fu Xuan, time is her most valuable thing at the moment. She is afraid that once she turns back, everything here will become a memory.

Therefore, killing time is not allowed.

In fact, she has always been very happy and has no need to use these means to kill time.

Therefore, this was the first time in a long time that she used the same way to kill time again, to temporarily relax her mind. After all, Mo Feng was still on his way home, and she really couldn't get used to his absence.

As for the official documents...

Just deal with the urgent ones, it’s impossible to deal with the non-urgent ones now.

The main reason was that Fu Xuan felt a little tired. After all, she was just a human being, not a god. She had acted like a machine in the past, but in the end, she was just a human being.

No matter how well she arranges her policies, she will have no way to deal with them if people below her are just pretending to be submissive.

No matter how accurate her material dispatch is, she cannot ban all the corrupt officials among them, and there will always be some who slip through the net.

Mo Feng told her that if the water is too clear, there will be no fish. She understood this truth, but she just didn't want to compromise - even so, after sitting in the position of general for a long time, there are always some things that need to be compromised, and she should also compromise with herself.

So, why should we set such high standards for ourselves?

As long as you do your best within the allowed scope, it should be fine.

I always pretend to be strong in front of others, and I also have to be calm when dealing with my family. I don’t want to show my weakness in front of others...

In the Xianzhou Alliance, she had almost reached the pinnacle, her parents were proud of her, and she had a husband who knew and loved her. But people always expect more from the future, and when they expect too much, they will inevitably be disappointed.

"Destiny..." She murmured, "Next year, I will marry him... These years feel longer than the past two hundred years I lived..."

If not so many things had happened, she should be happily preparing for her upcoming wedding with Mo Feng.

To truly enter into marriage with him... With the blessings of relatives and friends, she could foresee that Mr. Jing Yuan was trying hard to persuade them to drink, and her father was smiling and holding her mother's hand beside her to witness it.

The silly girl Qingque almost missed the time because of playing cards. She came a little late and sat at the same table with the kids. Anyway, it didn't seem out of place for her to sit at the same table with the kids given her height.

I will form a family with Mo Feng. Even though it may be short, it will be a busy and fulfilling century. Maybe I will have a child with him...

If possible, if the affairs of the fairy boat were not so complicated, she would also like to spend the honeymoon she deserves with Mo Feng. From childhood to adulthood, she has only been to Yuque and Luofu, and has never witnessed the scenery of other places with her own eyes.

But now it's just a thought... I should have the right to fantasize...

There was no one beside Fu Xuan. If there was someone there, they would have noticed that Fu Xuan was smiling, which even she herself did not notice.

This situation continued until someone visited the Shen Ce Mansion.

Fu Xuan had sensed this person as soon as he returned to Luofu. Normally, he should have gone to greet him, but he was in a bad mood, so he let him be. After all, he was the real master of Shen Ce Mansion.

"You still remember to come back? People who don't know would think Luofu is not your home?" Fu Xuan gathered his previous thoughts and said unhappily.

She looked at Jing Yuan with some dissatisfaction.

This hands-off shopkeeper... is so infuriating...

Although she knew Jing Yuan was on a mission assigned by the alliance, it didn't stop her from being upset. After all, she was not Fu Xuan who was rational now.

"Ah - we finally get to see each other again, but you have to look at your old boss with a stern face like this. I feel so sad." Boss Jing Yuan said unhappily.

"Haha, are you sad? Instead of being sad, you might as well go and mix cement with the craftsmen." Fu Xuan said.

"Don't be angry. Look what I brought you? A box of credit points." Jing Yuan said with a smile.

"I don't accept bribes. Use this money for your retirement." Fu Xuan said unhappily.

"My retirement is supported by the alliance, so you'd better not argue with me about these urgent funds. You and Mo Feng have already emptied your family assets."

"There are plenty of ways to earn back your material possessions. When a person dies, he is truly dead." Fu Xuan accepted the box of credit points honestly.

After all, we are old acquaintances. Although we bicker all the time, we only joke like this when we have a good relationship. Besides, what's wrong with collecting some hard work fee... He said he would assist me, but in the end, I have to do everything by myself.

"I was worried about your mental state, but now I feel relieved to see you like this. From now on, I will be responsible for supervising the project in Changletian and help you relieve the pressure." Jing Yuan said with a smile.

"Thank you for having a conscience."

"Hey, I have always had a conscience, okay?"

"Okay, you have a conscience. If you have nothing else to do, go to work."

"I heard from Mo Feng that you are very lively in front of him. But are you so cold towards others? Hey, hey - don't do it. I'm an old man and my bones will fall apart if you hit me. I'm leaving now." Jing Yuan laughed and left.

Fu Xuan knew that he just wanted to adjust his mood in his own way.

All he lacks is his unique skill - cheating chess.

I have to say, I actually miss the way he played tricks, and Fu Xuan knew very well that Jing Yuan was actually very good at chess, he just did it on purpose.

Perhaps this was also his way of relieving his depression when he was a general.
