Chapter 532 A rare leisure time and a brief moment of comfort!

As Gao Yao stepped into the main hall, a lively and warm atmosphere hit him. He saw that Lu Zhi, Lu Su, Yu Shu, Xiao Yue and others had been waiting for a long time, standing or sitting, their faces were filled with anticipation and joy.

Yu Shu walked forward lightly, gently stretched out her hands, and skillfully helped Gao Yao take off his heavy armor. At the same time, she whispered to the servants to quickly serve the carefully prepared delicacies to the table. This has become Gao Yao's unshakable routine every time he returns. When fighting outside, Gao Yao never cared about food and drink. He shared the joys and sorrows with ordinary soldiers and had no difference in what they ate. However, only when he stepped into this mansion could he fully enjoy the pleasure brought by the food.

Gao Yao did not say much, but quickly walked to the basin, washed himself briefly, and then sat down at the table, ready to feast on the feast. Several women performed their duties, some carefully picked out the tiny fish bones from the delicious fish meat, and then gently put them into Gao Yao's bowl; some focused on peeling the shells of fresh shrimps for Gao Yao, revealing the tender shrimp meat; and others kept an eye on the water level in Gao Yao's teacup and filled it with fragrant tea in time. Under such careful care, Gao Yao was naturally satisfied and enjoyed the feast without any hesitation.

After eating and drinking, a servant had prepared a large bucket of steaming hot water for Gao Yao to take a bath. Gao Yao stood up leisurely, walked straight to the bathtub, and slowly stepped into it, feeling the warm water wrapping his whole body, and his fatigue instantly dissipated. At this time, several ladies took turns to come forward, either kneading his shoulders to relax his muscles, or gently brushing his hair to clean the dirt, making Gao Yao immersed in an extremely comfortable and pleasant environment.

After eating and washing, Gao Yao returned to his room and began to sleep soundly. Naturally, he did not ask any of his wives to accompany him. Since returning to land, he has either been dealing with various busy tasks or traveling. Basically, he has not had a good rest. Now that he has finally returned home, it is natural for him to have a good rest.

Gao Yao slept soundly and soundly until the next day when the sun was high in the sky and the sunlight shone through the window onto his exhausted face. Only then did he wake up slowly.

While Gao Yao was sleeping soundly in a sweet dream, the scene in the county town was quite different. Many officials and dignitaries looked uneasy, sitting restlessly and feeling anxious.

Everyone originally thought that Gao Yao would immediately summon all the ministers to discuss important matters when he returned. After all, as the leader of a region, he was usually busy with affairs, and now that he had finally returned to the county city, he should seize the time to handle government affairs.

However, to everyone's surprise, Gao Yao not only did not act as expected, but instead closed the door and refused all visitors. Such an abnormal behavior, how could it not make people suspicious?

Especially those who have something to hide are extremely terrified. Because during the time when Gao Yao was away, a lot of big and small things happened in the county city. Some of these things may be insignificant, but if Gao Yao knows about them and investigates them, the consequences may be disastrous.

However, except for a few people who knew the inside story and knew that Gao Yao was resting at this time, most people knew nothing about it. As a result, all kinds of speculation and worries spread rapidly like a plague, causing panic in the entire county.

When Gao Yao woke up, he felt relaxed and comfortable, as if the heavy burden that had been weighing on his mind had disappeared in an instant. After a good sleep, he felt that he had recovered most of his energy.

Looking back on the past year, Gao Yao couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion. Those days really made him exhausted, running around all day and working hard, and he hardly had a moment of peace. Now, being able to sleep so comfortably is a great enjoyment for him.

"Someone is coming!"

Following Gao Yao's shout, servants soon came to help Gao Yao wash and brush his teeth. He also had to clean his face. When he left, his face was still clean, and when he came back, his hair was already clean. Now, of course, he had to clean it up thoroughly.

As soon as Gao Yao finished speaking, someone came to Gao Yao and started to help him wash up. After washing up, Gao Yao went straight to eat. The food had already been prepared. As long as Gao Yao was at home, the chef was basically on standby at all times.

Once Gao Yao got busy, he seemed to have entered a world isolated from the world. He would be annoyed by any interruption from anyone. Therefore, usually everyone would only eat together when Gao Yao personally asked when to eat. Because of this special habit, the kitchen of the Prime Minister's Mansion was always crowded with people.

After a long sleep for almost a whole day, Gao Yao finally woke up. He stretched, sat up from the bed, washed up, and went straight to the dining table. This was his first priority after getting up - filling his stomach!

At this time, the Prime Minister's residence was bustling with activity. In addition to Gao Yao, the other wives also showed up one after another. They were dressed in gorgeous clothes and sat around the table with various manners. In addition, Gao Yao's children were running around happily, and the whole scene was filled with laughter and a warm atmosphere.

For Gao Yao, this moment was undoubtedly a precious and enjoyable family time. He put aside his usual dignity as the prime minister, with a loving smile on his face, and interacted with each child cordially. He not only hugged the cute little ones one by one, but also played with them enthusiastically.

Gao Yao was very disgusted with the family being too unfamiliar and restrained. However, people like Lü Zhi and Yu Shu were not easily changed due to the education they received since childhood and the inherent concepts and values ​​they had formed over a long period of time. Despite this, Gao Yao still believed and worked hard to let his children break free from this restraint and become more lively, smart and creative.

Even when he decided to put Lü Zhi into cold storage, Gao Yao did not stop the children from visiting her. He knew the importance of family affection and did not want to let any external factors block the connection and love between family members.

After dinner, Gao Yao talked with his family and played with the children until the sun was setting. He then sent all the children to rest and also kept Yu Shu and Lu Zhi.

This also meant that it was time to talk about business. The other women naturally understood these things and left Gao Yao's study. Lu Zhi went to get the accounts, while Yu Shu made tea for Gao Yao.
