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

At first, only Xu Zhubu and Zhao Xiu knew about Shen Zheng's assassination.

Later, the Fifth Tanwei went to Tongan County every few days, and was discovered to be abnormal by Wang Guangjin and Mo Qingwan.

Wang Guangjin, who knew the truth, packed his luggage that night and knocked on Zhao Xiu's door under the cover of darkness.

He invited Zhao Xiu to go to Beijing with him.

I thought Zhao Xiu would agree immediately, but I didn't expect to be cruelly rejected.

In the moonlight, he could clearly see the struggle on Zhao Xiu's face.

"Master Zhubu won't let me go."

It’s not that he hadn’t thought about going to Shangjing to kill.

But as soon as the idea came to mind, it was strangled by Xu Yunyan.

"The master has been assassinated, you spineless man!" Wang Guangjin said angrily, "Let's follow the route the master took to enter the capital and investigate along the way. We may find some clues! Zhao Xiu, the master was bullied before he even arrived in the capital. Can you sit still?"

"Even if Master Zhubu says I can't sit still, I have to sit!" Zhao Xiu gritted his teeth, "He said that my coming to the capital now will only cause trouble for Master. No matter how capable we are, can we be better than Lord Bo and His Majesty?"

"But it's better than doing nothing!"

Wang Guangjin did not agree with his idea.

"Your Excellency is in the open, and we are in the dark. Any help we can give is a plus."

Zhao Xiu wavered for a moment, then his expression became firm again, "What I have to do is to protect the county for you. What you have to do is to move the cloth shop and the bookstore out of Liuyang Prefecture. It's not that I'm a coward, and I'm not afraid of death, but Xu Zhubu is right, Tongan County is your home, no matter what, we have to protect our home so that you don't have to worry about anything."

The cold moonlight poured down, extinguishing some of Wang Guangjin's anger.

If he rushed to Beijing, what would happen to the bookstore and cloth shop?

Is that what adults want to see?

Before the master left, he said to him: "Keep the county business well."

......

When Wei Que answered all of Xu Zhubu's questions, it was almost noon.

Seeing that Xu Zhubu was still frowning, Wei Que comforted him, "Don't worry, you must have heard about the ability of the Yulin Guards. After Shen Zheng returns, you will have your own county soldiers in Tong'an County."

Zhao Xiu felt that his position was threatened.

Born in the military.

The commander of the Yulin Army trained them personally.

How can the potential energy of these flowers be compared?

Before I could feel sad, I heard Xu Zhubu say, "Some time ago, a few people tried to sneak into your bedroom. After they were caught, we didn't get any useful information from them... They must have come from the capital."

Wei Que was slightly surprised, "Someone has actually extended his hand to the county?"

Which faction could it be?

"Take me to see it."

......

After coming out of the cell, Wei Que took off his mask and looked at Xu Zhubu repeatedly, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.

ruthless.

This person is so cruel.

He actually used almost all the interrogation methods used in the military.

Can the person tied to the wooden frame still be called a human being?

"They are all hard-core people who are not afraid of death." Wei Que said, "There are many such brave men among the wealthy families in the capital. Let's put it this way, you can try again during this period of time to see if you can pry out some useful information. If not, after I return, I will bring people to the capital and report this matter to His Majesty."

After receiving the silver for purchasing goods from the county government, Wei Que went to the dock.

Xu Zhubu walked towards the book office with his baggage.

Zhao Xiu scratched his head and chased after him and asked, "Master Zhubu, do you have a letter from our constable?"

It's such a big bag, there should be some, right?

This person didn't even mention sorting the letters first.

"We'll distribute the letters later." Facing his probing gaze, Xu Zhubu felt no pressure at all. "Go to the dock first to help. Lord Wei just said that there are things on the boat that he bought specially for us."

After entering the bookkeeping room, he closed the door, opened the window, and accurately found the letter that belonged to him from a pile of letters.

The envelope was very light in my hand, but when I squeezed it, it still had some thickness.

Then compare it with the other envelopes in the bundle.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion, but this letter of his should be one of the thickest.

I carefully opened the envelope and the familiar words appeared on the paper.

——"Xiao Xu, it's nice to see you in person."

With a smile on his lips, Xu Zhubu looked behind him.

——"How is the county? Are you okay? If you have any difficulties, remember to ask Lord Yu for help. Everything is fine here. I live in a big house with five entrances. There is a view at every step. It is very expensive. But I still miss the county. Such a luxurious mansion costs money everywhere. It is big and tiring to walk in..."

The next page was filled with Shen Zheng's mumbling.

Some say the female guard was very strong and her weapon weighed 12 kilograms. Some say she slept in the palace but suffered from insomnia.

——"You are wrong. I may not be able to return to the county in the next one or two months. The casting of the blast furnace of the Ministry of Industry is not completed in one go. After the furnace is built, smelting tests are required. A few days ago, His Majesty gave me the task of building a river dam, and the construction period is another month..."

In the first few pages of the letter, she recounted many things that happened after arriving in Beijing, but she did not mention her experience on the way to Beijing.

Xu Zhubu read every word carefully.

In the last few pages, the content of the letter was her plan for the county, no matter how big or small.

She said that the county should repair what needs to be repaired and rebuild what needs to be rebuilt, and not be stingy with the money. The most important thing is that the county residents live comfortably.

He also said that we should pay attention to the heading of rice and control the timing of fertilization well and not miss it. If we miss it, the yield per mu this year may not be as good as last year.

He also said that if she hadn't returned by the Mid-Autumn Festival, he, as the chief clerk, must remember to distribute mooncakes and red envelopes to the people in the yamen and not let them down.

As he read the letter, the tea on the table gradually cooled down, and he finally felt a little relieved.

He took out paper and pen, put away the paperweight, rolled up his sleeves and ground ink, then began to write his reply.

......

Quanyang County.

County government.

Balezhan paced back and forth in the front yard, extremely anxious, until the runner who went out to inquire about the news came back.

"How!" He stepped forward quickly, his neck stretched two miles, "But Lord Shen is back?"

In the past two months, he was worried day and night, fearing that Shen Zheng would offend high-ranking officials in the capital and his career would be hindered.

People were sent out in wave after wave to gather information, but the news they brought back was a mixture of true and false, and he didn't know who to believe.

There is even news that Shen Zheng was assassinated on her way to Beijing and is in grave danger? !

Isn’t this a joke!

I went to Tongan County to ask Xu Yunyan, but he was as tight-lipped as a rock and I couldn't get any information out of him. It was really annoying.

The bailiff couldn't bear to dampen his expectations, so he opened his mouth with difficulty: "No..."

"no?!"

Bale Zhan clapped his hands and clicked his tongue, "Who's coming?"

"The Lord of the Canal Transport..." The yamen runner said, "They said that Lord Shen and that Lord got married..."

"What?"

Ba Lezhan jumped three feet high: "Prepare gifts, prepare gifts!"

How come Lord Shen got married, but his little brother didn't receive any news at all?
