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

Outside Liuyang Prefecture, two carriages slowly left the city.

The carriage in front was carrying people, while the carriage at the back was carrying goods, a whole carriage full of New Year's goods.

In the carriage, both the couple looked a little excited. Sometimes they opened the window to look out, sometimes they moved left and right. In short, their hands, feet and buttocks were busy.

After a while, the wife showed a trace of hesitation again, and asked hesitantly: "Master, you left... Is it really okay?"

The husband looked towards the city and pondered for a moment: "Who made them so fake? They told me not to worry and that I didn't need to watch over them. They just needed to watch over them. Madam, do you think I forced them to do this?"

His wife seemed to be convinced by him and nodded, "Yes, it is reasonable to give them some opportunities to perform."

"Oh, that's right!" The husband smiled. "Let's not talk about them anymore. Let's talk about something happy. Madam, do you think they will be surprised to see us later?"

"It must be a surprise." The wife obviously thought of the other party's reaction, and her eyes curved into crescents: "It's rare for our whole family to be together, and Zheng'er is here too, let's stay up together to celebrate the New Year."

She leaned her head on her husband's shoulder and sighed, "I haven't been this happy in a long time."

"That's not right..." The husband obviously thought of something, lowered his head, and said with a strange look: "It seems that our whole family is not complete..."

Isn’t there another one who is not in Liuyang Prefecture?

"Eh?" The wife was stunned, then looked up at her husband. When their eyes met, they immediately started laughing.

How could I have forgotten about my older son?

These two people were Yu Zhengqing and his wife, who rushed from Liuyang Prefecture to Tongan County to celebrate the New Year.

"I don't know... whether Jiusi has time to stay up to celebrate the New Year today."

It’s a good thing that this doesn’t remind people of me.

Thinking of his eldest son, Zhuang Zhiyun felt a little uncomfortable: "Although Doctor Li has cured the cowpox, Changnan Prefecture has passed through the gate of Yama Palace, and there are still many things to do."

Seeing that she was beginning to feel uncomfortable, Yu Zhengqing could no longer admit that he was worried, and instead put his arm around her shoulders and said, "We've weathered all the storms, so our son can handle it. Next year, next year on New Year's Eve, let's really stay up together as a family!"

Zhuang Zhiyun blinked away the tears in her eyes and said softly, "Zheng'er wants to come too."

"Of course they are together!" Yu Zhengqing didn't even cross Shen Zheng out.

Just as the carriage became quiet, there was a burst of hurried horse hoof sounds passing through the carriage and heading towards the front of the train.

Perhaps it was a habit he had developed over the years, Yu Zhengqing was very sensitive to the sound of hurried horse hooves, so he subconsciously lifted the curtain to take a look.

Just with this one glance, his brows furrowed slightly.

Seeing this, Zhuang Zhiyun also leaned forward to look at the road ahead, but there happened to be a bend ahead, and all she could see was a large cloud of dust raised by horse hooves.

"What's the matter, sir?" she asked.

"What that person is wearing..." Yu Zhengqing was not sure, "seems to be the uniform of the Yulin Army."

There is actually nothing special about the Yulin Army's uniforms. If you have never seen them, you will not find them strange at all. If you really want to say what the characteristics are, it is that they are somewhat like "night clothes".

The clothes are black and blue, with the hands and feet tied up, and there is no outer shirt to facilitate movement.

Yu Zhengqing always felt that this looked a bit like a "thief's suit", and he didn't know who chose this outfit for them, so he was deeply impressed.

"Yulin Army?" Zhuang Zhiyun was puzzled. "Aren't the Yulin Army in Shangjing? Why are they here?"

Is there something going on in Liuyang Prefecture?

Yu Zhengqing was silent for a moment, and thought of one thing: "The last time Shen Zheng was rewarded, her father was also escorted by the Yulin Army."

Zhuang Zhiyun covered his mouth and subconsciously looked ahead: "This is the direction of Tongan County, you mean..."

"Your Majesty has sent the Imperial Guards to Tong'an County, and..." Yu Zhengqing narrowed his eyes, "They are going alone, most likely to convey His Majesty's will or oral instructions."

Yu Zhengqing had no way of guessing the content of the decree, but the person was right in front of him. As Shen Zheng's immediate superior, couldn't he follow and take a look?

"Catch up with the horse just now." Yu Zhengqing gave the order calmly.

"Ah?" The driver turned his head stiffly, pulling the reins as if he was about to cry: "Sir, we are a carriage..."

Carriage chasing horses?

If a few horses pulled an empty cart, maybe it would be possible, but his horse was carrying three people, how could he catch up with the lone rider?

"......" Yu Zhengqing waved his hands irritably: "Just chase him if I tell you to, hurry up. We are familiar with the road, and he is alone without a guide, so he will have to ask for directions later."

Yu Zhengqing really got it right.

Not only did the other party want to ask for directions, he also happened to come to them to ask for directions.

There is no official road from Liuyang Prefecture to Tongan County. Facing three large and small forks in the road, the Yulin Army officers reined in their horses and asked, "Why is there not even a road sign?"

The horse was prancing around under him, as if trying to find a way out on its own. The soldier had no choice but to turn back and look for the carriage that had just passed by.

What's this called?

"Luck!" Yu Zhengqing pulled aside the curtain and asked loudly, "Are you a soldier of the Imperial Guard?"

The other party immediately became alert, slowly moved his hand to the scabbard behind him, and asked him solemnly: "Who are you?"

Yu Zhengqing's mouth twitched.

Ask soon.

He took out the prefect's token from his bosom, "Liuyang Prefect, Yu Zhengqing."

The horse moved lightly, and the other party approached and looked at the token carefully, then retracted his hand that was about to draw the sword: "I greet you, Master Yu. I'm sorry for offending you just now. Please forgive me."

Yu Zhengqing waved his hand nonchalantly and asked directly, "Are you going to Tongan County to deliver a message?"

The other party hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, I will go first to convey His Majesty's oral instructions."

"One step ahead?" Yu Zhengqing immediately grasped the key point: "You mean... there is more to come?"

His Majesty's private reward was an open matter, and the other party directly admitted: "Yes, there will be more rewards from His Majesty later."

After hearing these words, Yu Zhengqing and Zhuang Zhiyun's hearts fell back into their stomachs.

After showing each other the way, their horses were covered in dust again.

Seeing the Yulin Army running away in an instant, Yu Zhengqing stroked his chin and said, "First, pass on the oral order... Let's go to Tong'an County together without waiting for the reward... There's something fishy going on!"

Zhuang Zhiyun smiled and said, "Since there is a reward, it must be a good thing. Let's just wait for the news."

This made Yu Zhengqing feel sour: "This girl has been here for less than a year, and she has received two rewards from His Majesty. What about me? His Majesty didn't reward me at all!"

"Master, you..." Zhuang Zhiyun patted his hands, "Why are you comparing yourself to a child?"

Yu Zhengqing snorted softly, but he couldn't suppress the smile no matter how hard he tried.
