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

Shen Shi.

Pillow flow courtyard.

The shadows of the trees were scattered on the ground. Yu Nanshu and Pei Zhaoqi were eating grapes around the stone table. Old Qiao was drawing a blueprint and Li Shiyuan was sorting out medical records.

Right now, Fang Ziyan is the most lively person in the whole yard.

He has changed eight sets of clothes.

Either this suit was too fancy, that suit was too shabby, or it made him look too fat. He kept changing clothes, but nothing satisfied him.

Seeing that there was only one hour left until the hour of You, he was so anxious that he was spinning around in circles.

"What should I do? If I had known earlier, I should have made two more sets of clothes. These clothes look fine on normal days, but why do they look so wrong today? If I wear them to the palace, won't it be embarrassing for Sister Shen?"

Yu Nanshu was dizzy from his shaking and said helplessly: "How about this set I'm wearing? I think it's pretty good."

"I think so too. Just be casual." Cui Jinyin peeled grapes and said indifferently, "The emperor doesn't care what we wear. When you get to the palace, just be polite and... just eat."

Thinking back to the first time she attended a palace banquet, she was both excited and nervous.

He was afraid of making mistakes in his words and actions, saying the wrong thing or making the wrong gesture, but at the same time, he couldn't help but yearn for the magnificent palace.

But when she really arrived at the palace, she found that it was just like that.

The palace was indeed large and magnificent, but if one looked closely, this palace was, after all, the residence of the Emperor and the Empress, and she was just a "guest".

Since you are a guest at someone else's home, you should fulfill your duties as a guest.

As long as you observe etiquette, don't talk nonsense and don't look around randomly, you will be a qualified guest and will naturally not be criticized by the host.

Fang Ziyan was somewhat comforted by her words. He lingered at the table and said in an embarrassed tone, "Then you two young ladies, you must protect me and Zhao Qi and the others. I was thinking about having my father call me 'Dad' after returning to Tongan County..."

Don't go into the palace tonight and offend someone, or you'll end up not being able to come back...

Cui Jinyin spat out a few grape seeds and said, "Tsk!" "Fatty Fang, you're really capable."

As he was speaking, Xiao Yuan ran into the yard, panting, "Is everything packed? The master is back, and the uncle and his men are here. We can set off now!"

The palace!

When Xiao Yuan thought about where he was going, his hands and feet were shaking with excitement.

He thought that he could only be a constable in this life, but who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, he would become a constable who could enter the palace to attend banquets!

Looking at the entire Yuan family, he is the most promising one!

"It's already settled." Yu Nanshu wiped the juice off her hands with a wet towel and stood up first, saying, "Let's go into the palace! Let's have a feast!"

Fang Ziyan took a deep breath and shouted with all his might, "Eat!"

Pei Zhaoqi and others stood up one after another and slowly followed Yu Nanshu out of the courtyard. Upon closer inspection, their steps seemed a little disordered and they seemed a little nervous.

"knock--"

The gate of Zhenliuyuan was gently closed, and the grapes lay quietly in the fruit bowl, emitting a sweet fragrance, attracting passing insects.

......

For this banquet, the Shen family sent out three carriages, plus one from the Yu family, a total of four carriages, which were parked neatly in front of the Suzaku Gate.

Shen Zheng and others slowly got out of the car. Eunuch Hong cried out "Ouch" and came forward with a small comb.

"This old servant greets Master Bo and Master Shen!" His tone was filled with endless affection. "This old servant has been waiting here for you for a long time, and finally you are here! Please follow this old servant!"

As he led the way, he looked down at Yu Nanshu and the others and instructed Little Comb: "Go over there and accompany the young ladies and gentlemen. Don't be negligent!"

Little Comb obediently took a few steps and stayed beside Yu Nanshu and the others.

Fang Ziyan has never closed his mouth since the moment he stepped into the Suzaku Gate.

"Zhao Qi..." He covered his chest and warned himself not to look around. "It's really big in here. I'm so nervous. I feel like my heart is going to jump out of my throat."

The palace wall next to him was so high and thick that just a glance at it made him feel breathless.

Pei Zhaoqi's face was no longer as calm as before, but he turned around and comforted him: "Don't be nervous, we will just follow Sister Shen."

Fang Ziyan swallowed his saliva and nodded, his eyes fixed on Shen Zheng's back, afraid of losing her.

They walked on the long palace road. The swords on the waists of the guards on the roadside shone coldly, and the wind blowing in their faces became solemn.

Xiao Yuan tightly grasped the constable badge in his sleeve, looking at the narrow strip of sky cut out by the palace wall, and suddenly an inexplicable thought arose in his mind - looking around, this palace road seemed bottomless and would never end.

An unreasonable fear enveloped him, and his steps became unsteady. Before he knew it, he had fallen several steps behind the others.

By the time I reacted, my back was covered in cold sweat.

"Sir." Suddenly, a voice sounded beside him.

The white-faced, beardless eunuch had arrived beside him at some point and whispered, "Are you feeling unwell? If you are, just tell me..."

Xiao Yuan's heart was still trembling, and he forced a smile and said, "Father, did you recognize the wrong person? I am just a constable in Tongan County, not an official..."

The two of them stuttered together, and it was hard to tell who was more nervous.

Finally, it was Little Comb who broke the silence: "Your Excellency, I did not recognize the wrong person."

This made Xiao Yuan confused.

If this young eunuch wanted to curry favor with someone, he could have curry favor with the two young ladies, Yu and Cui, instead of him, a small constable.

Could it be...

Xiao Yuan's eyes rolled.

It must be that the other party has a keen eye and discovered the extraordinary qualities of Xiao Yuan!

In an instant, the tension in his heart disappeared, and even the palace road in front of him was softened by the sunlight.

......

The farewell banquet was held in the Imperial Garden, but before the hour of You, Eunuch Hong, in accordance with the emperor's instructions, invited Shen Zheng, Yu Shizhang and others to the Imperial Study, and called Xiao Suozi to lead the rest of the people to the Imperial Garden first.

The Imperial Garden is a place hidden in the storybook.

Thinking of being able to see the Royal Garden with his own eyes, Fang Ziyan immediately threw his nervousness behind him and led everyone to walk faster and faster.

The beautiful scenery along the way dazzled him.

But thinking about what Cui Jinyin had said before, he forced himself to hold back his exclamation.

After arriving at the pavilion, Cui Jinyin stopped walking and sat down, panting, saying, "Yu Nanshu, ask Shang Qianzhi to rest for a while. I..."

She wanted to say, "I'm tired of seeing this," but thinking that this was Feng Qianzhi's first time here, she changed her mind and said, "I think we should take our time to explore this Imperial Garden. We can't rush."

"Why do I see that you are not feeling well?"

Yu Nanshu glanced at her, then pulled Feng Qianzhi to sit down and said, "Qianzhi, go take a look at Cui Jinyin. Maybe she's too weak. She's out of breath after walking a few steps."
