Transmigrated into a female county magistrate during a famine, leading her country to prosperity

The shadows of the trees on the ground quietly moved, but the emperor showed no intention of leaving.

Another quarter of an hour later, Cui Jinyin returned to the middle sanatorium to "supervise". After replacing Eunuch Hong, he finally stood up.

Shen Zheng and Eunuch Hong both thought he wanted to return to the palace, but he looked at Shen Zheng and said, "The relief center isn't far from Huihe Dam, right?"

This means you want to go to Huihe Dam.

Eunuch Hong was silent for a moment after hearing this.

Well, judging by this, it will probably be dark by the time we return to the palace.

Shen Zheng replied, "Your Majesty, it's not too far. We can get there in two quarters of an hour by carriage. But Your Majesty, it's already the afternoon..."

Is it a bit too late to go to Huihe Dam again?

"No problem." The emperor not only did not think it was too late, but even said: "The Queen and I have not watched the sunset outside the palace for a long time. It will not be too late to return to the palace after sunset."

In order to be able to leave the palace today, the queen began to arrange harem affairs a few days in advance, and he even reviewed all the backlog of memorials.

They were eager to stay outside the palace longer and longer, having finally won some time.

Before leaving the shelter, the group went for a stroll in the central area, and Shen Zheng saw two "familiar faces".

——Awu was taking Qiu Lianqiu to bask in the sun, and seeing Qiu Lianqiu's complexion, it seemed that he was much better than before.

When he suddenly saw her, Ah Wu felt a little embarrassed and wanted to stand up and say hello, but she stopped him by shaking her head.

——Yin Hesheng was following a few small managers to the back area.

The young stewards chattered incessantly, while he squinted his eyes due to the sun, and was obviously not in high spirits. He gave people the feeling that "If I can do this job, I can do it. If not, I'd rather die here."

Until a small steward couldn't stand it anymore and pulled him aside, saying, "Hesheng, don't you want to learn to read? How can you learn to read and write without paper and pen? I've asked the vice president for you. You can earn centimeters by working. When you have enough centimeters, you can exchange them for paper and pen. In one word, are you going or not?"

Yin Hesheng's eyes cleared up a bit, and before his brain could figure it out, he answered with his mouth: "I'll go."

......

Shen Zheng never thought that she could ride with the emperor and empress.

In principle, ministers were absolutely not allowed to ride with the emperor and empress, and the barrier of "the emperor is superior and the ministers are inferior" could not be easily broken.

But the emperor said, "You are riding with Mr. Bi and Mrs. Bi."

So Shen Zheng sat up without any burden. After all, the "theoretical" "principle" is a "principle" that can be flexible.

But there are also disadvantages to riding with the emperor and empress.

For example, she couldn't lean against the wall of the carriage, and her waist would be very tired after sitting for a long time, but the emperor and the empress sat upright throughout the whole journey as if nothing had happened.

The road to Huiheba is not easy to travel on, but fortunately it has not rained in the suburbs of Beijing in the past few days, so the road is not muddy, but a little bumpy.

The carriage passed many people.

Farmers carrying farm tools and fertilizers, vegetable vendors carrying baskets on their backs, children catching insects by the fields, and girls singing farm songs.

The emperor and empress were attracted by all this, and they opened the small window on the side wider and wider until dust flew in their faces, choking them and making them cough continuously.

"This road needs repairing." The emperor lowered the carriage curtain, closed the small window, and said, "The relief center consumes a lot of food every day. If the road is difficult to travel, both people and horses will be exhausted."

He happened to say what Shen Zheng wanted to say.

Since the last time she came to the relief center, Shen Zheng had been thinking about how to talk to the Ministry of Works, but she didn't expect that today the emperor would take the initiative to "come to the door".

"Your Majesty is wise!" she agreed. "I also think that the main roads outside the capital can be repaired. Paving them with cement paving is best. It won't hurt horse hooves, and the cost is much lower than cement paving."

The emperor nodded, and after Shen Zheng made a few more suggestions, the carriage gradually slowed down. The surrounding area was filled with noisy voices, and it sounded very lively.

Eunuch Hong's voice was heard amidst the bustle: "Master, we've arrived at Huihe Dam."

After the emperor and empress got out of the car, as soon as they stood firm, a gust of moisture-laden wind blew in their faces.

Looking up, the long Huihe Dam looks like a giant blue-gray python, stretching across the front of your eyes. The sunlight splashes on the dam, making the cement emit a cold and bright light.

The emperor's Adam's apple rolled slightly, and he unconsciously took half a step forward. He felt that the noise around him had disappeared, and his heart and eyes were filled with the natural whirlpool dam in front of him.

"This dam is so flat..." The queen raised her sleeve to cover her forehead, her tone full of amazement.

"Let's go." The emperor's eyes did not move, and he took the lead and said, "Let's take a closer look."

Every day many people come to Huihe Dam to watch the excitement, so their appearance is not surprising in the bustling Huihe Dam.

But as they walked along, a few people still noticed them.

"I just saw them get off that carriage. It looked expensive. They must be dignitaries from the capital. It would be nice if I could talk to them..."

"Haven't there been enough nobles visiting recently? They're so surprised by the rare things they see, and they still love to daydream!"

"You are such a rude person, even I can't do anything just by thinking about it?"

"Hiss—why does that young woman look like Lord Shen to me?"

"Did you see it wrong? I heard that Lord Shen was leaving the capital, so how could he have the leisure to come to the outskirts of the capital? Besides, have you seen Lord Shen? He just recognizes people randomly every day."

The sound was carried by the wind and reached the emperor's ears. He smiled and said to Shen Zheng, "You've been staying in the suburbs of the capital for over a month, and the people still don't recognize you."

Shen Zheng smiled and thought, don’t they recognize you too?

"Shaobings—shaobings for sale—!"

"Sugar figurines—sugar figurines so sweet they're almost tooth-destroying! Sugar figurines that can draw anything you want!"

The shouts of hawkers came one after another, and various snack stalls were lined up along the dam, with their bamboo signs swaying in the wind.

Smelling the faint aroma of food, Shen Zheng sighed, "I didn't expect people would set up stalls here so quickly."

It is estimated that there are many people coming here to play, and the people in the suburbs of Beijing saw the business opportunity, so snack stalls were set up one after another.

As he walked, Tianzi suddenly turned a corner and headed towards the pancake stall.

Shen Zheng was confused, and Eunuch Hong was shocked: "Master, no!"

He really couldn't understand why His Majesty always thought of these roadside stalls every time he went out of the palace in disguise?

Some people eat rough food every day, and their organs can tolerate it, but Your Majesty... wears fine clothes and eats delicious food every day, and your organs are used to being well-nourished. If they can't tolerate it...

The more he thought about it, the more afraid he became. He followed the emperor with a bitter heart and said to him, "Master, I have prepared food for you and your wife. If you feel hungry, I will send someone to get it. Don't eat these sesame cakes..."

"You talk too much." The emperor scolded without even turning his head.

Hua Duo behind Shen Zheng: "......?"

Prepare to step forward.

"I didn't call you." Shen Zheng pushed her back.

Eunuch Hong felt wronged after being scolded, and turned to the Queen for help: "Madam, look at this..."
