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

The sound of horse hooves came closer, and behind the two messengers holding signs, there was a long line of vehicles.

Seeing such a majestic appearance, everyone stopped what they were doing.

Even Zhao Xiu and others forgot to get into the carriage to "dig out" Wang Shize.

"Wow, what majestic horses! They are truly fine horses! Compared to these two horses, what is the 'BMW' that the driver just mentioned?"

Everyone took a look and realized that it was true. There was no need to compare the horses on both sides.

The newly arrived horse made Wang Shize's mount look extremely thin just by standing there.

"This leading official is so majestic! He looks like the martial artist described by the storyteller!"

"Hiss! Why do I see that they don't look like the people here? They have high noses and broad faces, which is the appearance of people on the river! Where do these people come from?"

Wang Shize could no longer sit still after hearing this.

These lowly people were going to humiliate him into the mud, and he also wanted to see who the newcomer was and who dared to show off so much power!

He looked at the stunned Yu Zhengqing and gave him a sinister look.

He has never seen the world, is petty-minded, and is not presentable.

How could he be so frightened by a question from someone else? He is really short-sighted!

Yu Zhengqing rubbed his eyes in disbelief.

Was he blind just now?

As the curtains fluttered, he somehow...seemed to see his old father far away in Beijing, who gave him a mysterious smile...

No way... Dad is here?

Yu Zhengqing wasn't quite sure and decided to wait and see.

It would be embarrassing if you recognized the wrong father.

Wang Shize had just finished mocking Yu Zhengqing when he turned around and saw the messenger in the lead. The smile on his face suddenly froze.

What did he see!

This time, the person rubbing his eyes became Wang Shize.

He had never received an imperial edict, nor had he received any reward from the emperor, but just because he had never eaten pork didn't mean he had never seen pigs run.

He had sweet dreams day and night, in which he always dreamed that he had made some achievements and then the emperor would reward him from the capital. He shouted: Wang Shize is here, the emperor has rewarded you, come quickly to receive the order!

Then he received the imperial edict in his brand new official robe, was promoted and made rich, and shouted: Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward. Long live the emperor, long live the emperor. I will devote my life to the country and only work after my death!

In order to avoid making mistakes, he searched through all the classics.

He knew exactly how the person offering the bounty would dress and what the bounty convoy would look like.

Isn’t this the highest level of reward?

Liuyang Prefecture is thousands of miles away from the capital, but the carriage awarded is still of the highest standard. Even the messengers are very impressive. What an honor this is...

Everything is right!

But unfortunately, the person who received the reward was not Wang Shize!

It was the female county magistrate whom he had just offended with his bold words—Shen Zheng!

"Liuyang Prefecture, Tongan County Magistrate, Shen Zheng, is available at——"

No one responded to the messenger's words just now, but there was no impatience on his face. Instead, he held up the sign and asked again.

The people of Tongan County were so shocked that they stood there in a daze. He could only whisper and hint:

"Fellow countryman, where is your county government? We came from Shangjing to look for your County Magistrate Shen."

He then used his free hand to scratch his head.

Yongning Bo kept urging them on the way, saying that he wanted to give his son a "surprise", which made them anxious and took a wrong turn. Now they have arrived in Tongan County and cannot find the county government office...

It's a bit embarrassing.

Upon hearing this, the county residents took a step back, their faces filled with horror: "Official, official, official... where are you from?"

They couldn't believe their ears.

In their entire lives, they had never thought of meeting an official from the capital, let alone an official who came specifically to see their Lord Shen!

The messenger looked back and saw that the carriage behind was approaching. He couldn't help but get anxious: "I'm coming to the capital. Fellow countryman, tell me first, where is the county government office?"

"Oh——"

The county residents all cried out in surprise.

Are they really here to see Master Shen? What are they doing here? Are they going to take Master back? What should they do then?

The county residents felt a little worried, but most of them were happy for Shen Zheng.

They believed that even if Lord Shen really left Tongan County, he would still miss them!

Because they will still pray quietly in their hearts that Lord Shen will be safe and sound, so Lord Shen will receive their wishes.

The enthusiastic county residents pointed the messenger in a direction: "Master Shen is here, sir, you don't have to go to the county government office!"

The messenger looked up and saw a woman wearing the official robes of a county magistrate, with gentle features and a smile in her eyes standing there.

"Quick, quick, get out of the way and let Lord Shen come over!"

The county residents made way for them, Shen Zheng and Yu Zhengqing looked at each other and stepped forward together.

Since the other party was a convoy representing the imperial will, Shen Zheng and the other person should have stepped forward to greet them. However, when the two messengers saw them coming, they jumped off their horses.

"My Lords, I am only a soldier leading the charge, and I am not worthy of your respect. Please..."

At this point, the messenger was in a dilemma.

To reward local officials, according to the etiquette of the Great Zhou Dynasty, they should first find the superiors of the local officials to lead the way, to act as witnesses, and to make the local authorities prepared.

But not only did they come back empty-handed when they went to Liuyang Mansion today, but now they came to Tongan County and ran into Lord Shen on the street.

There is nothing on the table, and there is a lot of noise all around. It is really... not suitable for appreciation.

I have announced rewards many times, but never have I been as embarrassed as today, the messenger thought.

It seems that...the only thing we can do is to let the two adults go back to the county government office first, wait for them to "follow" us, and then offer a reward according to the procedure.

He was about to speak after thinking of a plan when the man in the first carriage spoke:

"Since we have met, it is fate. Many people are here, so I can just be a witness."

"Sir, this..." The messenger was a little embarrassed. This, this is not in accordance with etiquette.

"That's it." The man's tone was unquestionable.

Are you kidding? Yu Shizhang must help his son and subordinates gain face!

If the decree was announced after returning to the county government, the "surprise" would be reduced by half.

The two messengers looked at each other. What Earl Yongning said was right. Sometimes one cannot follow the death etiquette. Now that they met on the streets of Tongan County, it was a good thing. There was no need to take off their pants to fart.

They bowed in the direction of Shangjing.

Your Majesty, you heard it, it was Earl Yongning who asked us to do this...

As soon as Yu Zhengqing heard the sound in the carriage, he opened his mouth wide.

My eyes saw it wrong just now, and now my ears heard it wrong?

How is that possible! He is still in his prime, and he is not going to be like this!

Shen Zheng looked at Yu Zhengqing's disoriented appearance and was extremely curious about the person in the carriage. She couldn't help but ask, "Sir, do you know the person in the carriage?"

"I know him very well." Yu Zhengqing answered without looking away, "You will know it later."

Shen Zheng: “!”

Could it be the one she was thinking of?

They had guessed who would come, but they never expected that the leader would be...!

That person actually traveled thousands of miles to come personally to announce the decree!
