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

The young man looked at Shen Zheng and asked, "But you asked the prefect to arrest Uncle Wang?"

Shen Zheng narrowed her eyes and looked at him. This was a clever question.

It is true that Yu Zhengqing arrested Wang Wu on her behalf.

But the implication of his words was that she was instigating Yu Zhengqing to arrest people without any investigation.

"Don't you know that Wang Wu deserves to be arrested?" Shen Zheng asked back.

"You're talking nonsense! Uncle Wang is a good constable!" The young man widened his eyes, as if Shen Zheng had told a huge lie.

Shen Zheng laughed out loud upon hearing this. She became interested and said, "Wang Wu is a good captain? Tell me more about him. What's so good about him?"

The young man immediately opened his mouth wide. He could name ten of Uncle Wang’s ideas with his eyes closed!

After a moment he froze in place and blinked.

What’s so good about Uncle Wang?

His reaction made Shen Zheng laugh out loud, and she asked, "Give you some more time to think about it?"

The young man glared back at Shen Zheng, frowning in thought.

After a moment, his eyes lit up and he listed everything clearly: "Uncle Wang will let me ride on him, will bring me food and gadgets from the county, and will let his nephew be my servant!"

"That's because you're the son of the county magistrate." Shen Zheng poured cold water on him, "If you were a farmer's son, do you think he would let you ride him like a horse, bring you things, or let his relatives cling to you?"

Shen Zheng glanced at him and continued, "Others are attracted by your family background, but you are so stupid that you come to fight for him. He is lucky to meet a fool like you."

The boy's eyes widened even more when he heard this, his face full of disbelief.

"Impossible! Don't spread rumors to confuse people!" He was obviously out of breath when he said this, and added in a low voice: "How could I be the son of a farmer, that kind of inferior person."

Shen Zheng could no longer hold back her anger after hearing this, and she grabbed his collar and took two steps towards the drying dam.

She pointed at the villagers and rice drying in the dam and asked, "Do you know what they are drying?"

Shen Zheng's action made the young man a little confused, but his collar was tightly grasped by Shen Zheng, so he could only answer honestly: "Of course I know, it's rice."

Shen Zheng picked him up, turned him around, looked him in the eye, and asked, "Have you ever eaten rice since you were a child? Did you grow up drinking dew?"

The young man originally pursed his lips and did not answer, but the discomfort in his neck became more severe, so he had to answer honestly: "My family has money and can afford rice, so of course I have to eat."

Shen Zheng sneered and stopped arguing with him. Instead, he said, "The rice you eat is carefully grown day and night by the inferior people you mentioned. If you call them that again, I will smack you in the face."

The young man suddenly felt a burning pain in his mouth and looked at Shen Zheng in horror.

The law follows the words! Magic! It must be magic!

A large patch of sweat suddenly appeared on his neck. Shen Zheng's hands suddenly felt sticky and she let go of them in disgust.

She went on to say, "If you must classify people into different classes, then in my eyes, those who can earn their own living, treat their relatives and neighbors well, are sensible, and do not steal or cheat are superior people. As for this kind of people..."

The boy didn't know why, but he actually cared about her evaluation at this moment, and couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with me!"

Shen Zheng sneered and replied, "People like you who rely on family background to look down on others are inferior people. Oh no, it's the inferior of the inferior. After all, there are many people with better family backgrounds than you. People like you who are so arrogant, when you wake up in the middle of the night, will you hate yourself for not being born in an imperial family?"

The young man was speechless after hearing what she said. He was annoyed and thought, when he was in Yonglu County in the past, when had anyone dared to speak to him like this?

"Kuang Wen! Kuang Wen!"

Just when he was sweating profusely from anxiety, he heard someone calling him.

Without even turning his head, he turned around and tried to run, but Shen Zheng was quick and grabbed him by the back of the neck again.

"Let me go! Let me go!"

He struggled continuously under Shen Zheng's hands, but he was young and weak. If he were a few years older, Shen Zheng probably wouldn't be able to control him.

The girl ran over with her skirt lifted. When she saw Shen Zheng, she immediately knelt down with tears in her eyes: "Master Shen, I am young and ignorant. I offended you. If you want to punish me, please punish me. I will accept any punishment. I hope you will show mercy."

When Luo Kuangwen saw his sister kneeling on the ground, and it was this evil woman, he struggled even harder.

"Sister, sister, get up, this woman is not worthy of you kneeling!"

"Shut up!" The girl wiped her tears and shouted at Luo Kuangwen, which was in stark contrast to her actions at this moment, making her like two different people.

Luo Kuangwen was like an angry lion cub just now, but after her roar, he became a quail that cowered.

After the girl finished yelling, she buried her head and sobbed quietly. Shen Zheng also looked down at her and asked, "Are you her biological sister? From the same mother?"

Before the girl could answer, Luo Kuangwen became excited again: "What do you mean? My sister and I are both born to our mother!"

Hearing this, the girl suddenly raised her head, gave Shen Zheng an apologetic look, and stood up with her hands.

"Snapped!"

Before Shen Zheng could react, she raised her hand and slapped Luo Kuangwen.

Maybe it's in the genes, even in this situation, Shen Zheng still wants to advise: Don't hit the children...

"Bang!"

Luo Kuangwen staggered after being slapped, raised his head and covered his face, looking at the girl in disbelief: "Sister, you hit me..."

But no one noticed his miserable appearance at this moment. Both Shen Zheng and the girl's eyes were attracted by the things on the ground.

It was a dagger that was completely snow-white and shiny.

It fell out from Luo Kuangwen's sleeve.

The girl's face immediately turned pale, and her hands began to tremble uncontrollably. She looked at the dagger on the ground in disbelief.

She recognized this dagger.

This was given by the captain named Wang on his younger brother's eighth birthday. He said: Men, no matter how old they are, all like sharp weapons. I give this dagger to the young master, and he should carry it for self-defense in the future.

Luo Kuangwen really couldn't let go of the dagger, but to him, the dagger was more like a toy and he would not carry it with him all the time.

But when he came to Tongan County today, he brought this dagger with him...

Just now he had an argument with Mr. Shen in front of him...

The girl didn't dare to think further and closed her eyes.

"Pa! Pa!" Then two more slaps came.

Luo Kuangwen was dazed by her slap, and even the disbelief on his face was blown away, leaving only stupor.

From childhood to adulthood, his sister had never hit him, but today she hit him three times.

The noise they made was quite loud, which attracted Yu Zhengqing's attention. When he saw the dagger on the ground, his face darkened and he quickly walked over here.

Assassinating an imperial official is a serious crime.
