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

Yu Zhengqing suddenly laughed. Born in Hou Bo's family, he had never thought about this question.

Shen Zheng continued, "What I want to do is to let them know what they want to do, and then work hard for it. Only when they find their own path in life can it be called a success. No matter what, I will support them as long as they don't commit crimes."

Yu Zhengqing looked at Shen Zheng steadily, and after a while he asked the question in his mind: "Then I will let that child go to the battlefield..."

He said it tactfully, but he also wanted to get Shen Zheng's approval.

His son took up martial arts, and he was under a lot of pressure from the outside world.

Others said that his Yu family was a family of civil officials, and as long as his son was willing to study literature, it would be a smooth road. They also said that the young master was ignorant, but he, as a father, was also...

Sometimes he felt that what they said made sense and he couldn't even say a word to refute them, but he just didn't want to stop that brat of his.

"You are a very good father." Shen Zheng looked into Yu Zhengqing's eyes and said seriously, "The eldest son's surname is only Yu, but he is not an appendage of your Yu family. He must have thought carefully about what he wants to do. He should have his own life."

Yu Zhengqing suddenly felt relieved.

He cupped his hands and said, "Teacher Shen, I am grateful for your guidance."

Shen Zheng replied: "Sir Yu, I am not qualified to be your subordinate."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

......

The village heads were hiding the matter, but Zhao Xiu found clues the next day.

They were in such a hurry that they drove ox carts in teams of two, running back and forth between Tong'an County and Quanyang County. It was hard not to attract attention.

Zhao Xiu looked at the note in his hand, which recorded the shops that the village heads had visited.

After a brief inquiry, he got the information he wanted from the shopkeeper: "Sir, they said they want to build a shrine, and it will take about a month."

Repair the ancestral temple!

Zhao Xiu was stunned at first when he heard this, but then he immediately understood the village heads' purpose - to build a shrine for the adults.

Zhao Xiu thought their proposal was good and worthy of the title.

He was originally riding Zhuifeng to the county government office, intending to inform the adults of the news today, but then he thought of something and pulled the reins, forcing Zhuifeng to turn a corner and go to Nanba Village.

"Knock knock knock."

Zhao Xiu knocked on the door of Zhou Lizheng's house.

"I'm coming!"

Zhou Lizheng responded very quickly and the person should be in the yard.

"Squeak."

There was a gap in the wooden door, and the two men looked at each other through the gap. When Zhou Lizheng saw who was coming, he was stunned at first, and then immediately wanted to close the door.

"Captain Zhao! The house is a little messy. Please stand there for a while while I clean it up."

Zhao Xiu twitched the corner of his mouth.

This person... No wonder he was recognized by the adults at the first sight.

It is not difficult for others to notice if you act like this, but the difficult part is pretending not to notice.

Zhao Xiu got his foot stuck in the crack of the door and held on to it with his hands. Just as he was about to speak, Zhou Lizheng suddenly started and tried hard to close the door.

Zhao Xiu's feet were pinched so hard that they hurt. He shouted helplessly, "Don't hide! I know what you are planning!"

His words stunned the people hiding in the yard, and they looked at each other in bewilderment.

Wu Lizheng asked, "Could it be that one of you has bribed Captain Zhao?"

The other village heads waved their hands and said, "How can we do that? Moreover, if Captain Zhao knew about this, wouldn't it be the same as if the adults knew about it? We dare not take this risk."

Wu Lizheng's face froze, and he took a defensive stance and said, "Here comes someone with bad intentions!"

At this time, Zhao Xiu had already pushed open the door and walked in.

Zhou Lizheng followed behind him, waving his hands frantically at the village heads.

The faces of the village chiefs were somewhat stiff. Zhao Xiu saw their panicked look and had evil intentions. He asked, "My colleagues, what are you planning?"

The village heads were stunned when they heard this.

Didn't he just say he knew what it was? Now he's asking them again, is he trying to trick them?

Zhou Lizheng stepped forward and asked, "Captain Zhao, what brings you to my house?"

Zhao Xiu replied: "Whatever you are doing, I will do the same."

He hit the Tai Chi back again.

Everyone in the crowd was so anxious that sweat broke out on their foreheads. They didn't answer, and Zhao Xiu didn't urge them. He found a small stool and sat on it, waiting quietly for them to speak.

Wu Lizheng had been secretly observing Zhao Xiu. Seeing that his face looked normal and there was a hint of smile in the depths of his eyes, he boldly guessed that he actually knew it.

He sighed and said, "Captain Zhao, how did you know that we were going to build a shrine for Lord Shen?"

Upon hearing this, Li Zheng Zhou tugged at Li Zheng Wu's sleeve in disapproval.

Captain Zhao hadn't said anything yet, so how come Brother Wu confessed it himself?

Zhao Xiu smiled. Seeing that Wu Lizheng was telling the truth, he stopped teasing them and said, "My detectives reported that you have been in and out of the county frequently in the past two days. You are the heads of different villages, and your actions represent your respective villages. That's why the detectives found it strange."

Zhao Xiu would not easily expose Shen Zheng, but continued: "Of course, it's not that I don't trust you colleagues, but I'm curious about why you are doing this, so I came to ask you today. I didn't expect it to be such a good thing to build a shrine for you."

All the village heads heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. Village head Zhou asked, "Captain Zhao, if you put it that way, then your Excellency doesn't know about this yet, right?"

Zhao Xiu nodded firmly: "My Lord has important matters to discuss with Lord Yu, so he can't pay attention to this side."

The village heads immediately believed it about 70% to 80%.

They moved the stools they were sitting on towards Zhao Xiu and said flatteringly, "Captain Zhao...I wonder if you could..."

"Can you not tell this to the adults?" Zhao Xiu asked.

Everyone immediately started to talk, "Master Zhao, you have stayed with her the longest, you are her confidant." They first complimented Zhao Xiu, making him feel flattered, and then said, "You also know what kind of person she is. She cares about us people the most. If she knew that we paid for her ancestral temple, she would definitely try her best to stop it."

Zhao Xiu nodded: "That's right."

Zhong Lizheng saw that he agreed, but he didn't express his opinion, nor was he discouraged. Instead, he continued to feed him with magic potion:

"Captain Zhao, now people in our county are saying that Lord Shen is a god, and gods need incense and worship. Let's build a shrine for Lord Shen, and worship him every day. With our sincere worship, Lord Shen will surely return to heaven."

Zhao Xiu was a little unhappy when he heard this, he couldn't bear to leave his master.

He asked, "What should we do if the Lord returns to heaven?"

The village chiefs were even more unhappy when they heard this and asked, "Captain Zhao, we can't be so heartless. Lady Shen treats us sincerely, but you hope that she can't ascend to become an immortal?"
