Transmigrated into a corrupt female county magistrate, defied fate and changed her life in a deserte

After a brief conversation in the palace, Shen Fenghua left the palace without disturbing anyone.

After returning to the villa, his face suddenly became gloomy. He stroked a golden token in his hand, and his eyes were dark.

The emperor asked him to protect Song Jinshu in secret...

He didn't know the reason behind this, but he was able to get the emperor to personally order them to be protected by the people in the secret cabinet.

It can be seen that Song Jinshu has something important behind him that the emperor values.

He couldn't help but think of the waterwheel and the high-yield potatoes, but he had not yet reported this to the emperor.

How did the emperor know?

Could it be that he also has spies in Jingyang County?

Thinking of this, Shen Fenghua frowned and a hint of worry flashed in his eyes.

Song Jinshu is indeed a rare talent, but she has a simple and naive mind and is easily influenced by others.

If she was being plotted against or someone was whispering in her ear, she might make an irreparable mistake.

Now the emperor's spies have set their sights on her again, and he is worried that no one is around to warn her.

He thought about the unknown details of the people in the secret cabinet, but he didn't expect that he had already known Song Jinshu and was familiar with the route to Jingyang County.

Among their respective excuses, Shen Fenghua felt that he was the best candidate to go to Jingyang County.

After careful consideration, he carefully selected five people from the secret cabinet, then packed his bags overnight and prepared to return to Jingyang County.

A quarter of an hour before they were about to leave Kyoto, someone came from the palace.

Eunuch Yang stood in front of Shen Fenghua and others, greeted them with a smile, and seemed not to notice the bag behind Shen Fenghua.

"Sir Shen is the newest leader of the Dark Chamber. You should stay in Kyoto to protect the Emperor's safety. As for those going to Jingyang County, the few people behind Sir Shen will be enough."

Eunuch Yang paused for a few seconds, his smile undiminished, and explained, "This is also what the Emperor meant."

After he finished speaking, the weather suddenly cooled down. Eunuch Yang straightened his collar. Winter came earlier in Kyoto this year than in previous years!

Shen Fenghua had a stern face and bowed expressionlessly: "Your subordinate will obey the emperor's will!"

Without saying a word, Shen Fenghua handed the things in his hand to the others behind him.

On the surface, he seemed calm and composed, but in fact, he felt inexplicably empty and lost inside.

It seems that he will never be able to go back to Jingyang County.

After watching the other people in the Dark Pavilion leave, he turned around and went back into the Dark Pavilion.

Eunuch Yang sighed slightly and was very curious about Song Jinshu who was far away in Jingyang County.

I wonder how far this new favorite of the emperor can go?

After the people from the Dark Pavilion left, Xiao Ren issued another imperial edict, which was directed to Jingyang County. The person who delivered the edict was Tutor Zhou, who had a good relationship with Song Jinshu.

……

The morning wind seemed cooler than yesterday.

Song Jinshu got up early, got dressed, and went to deal with the human traffickers.

Because it involves Princess Leping, she must take it seriously. She could have dealt with it yesterday, but she encountered such a thing.

We can't delay any longer today, otherwise the eldest princess will find out the whole story and will definitely blame us.

After going to court and completing the procedures, the trafficker confessed his guilt and was punished for all his previous crimes.

Song Jinshu, considering their good attitude in admitting their mistakes, executed the offenders immediately and exiled their families.

Song Jinshu reported the result. Later, the eldest princess, perhaps considering Princess Leping's reputation and not wanting to make a big fuss, did not make things difficult for her.

The matter was quickly resolved. In order to avoid such a situation in the future, she notified all the residents of the county that someone from every village and every household must come to watch the execution.

In the following years, there were almost no crimes in Jingyang County.

Meanwhile, Lu Chuan and others finally returned to Jingyang County.

I left in the middle of summer and when I came back, the trees were covered with frost.

There were fewer people on the road, so Lu Chuan took his men back to the escort agency and unloaded all the goods.

After a quick meeting with his wife and children, he took a box of fresh goods to the county government office.

At this moment, Song Jinshu was busy writing next year's plan in the study. Next to him was Lu Ruoyu, who was dressed in plain clothes and was summarizing this year's work report.

The twelfth lunar month was approaching, and there was going to be an assessment in the provincial capital. Song Jinshu didn't want to write, so the job naturally fell into Lu Ruoyu's hands.

Because the door was open, when Li Zi came to report, he saw the warm scene in front of him.

At this moment, he couldn't find any adjectives. He just felt that Lord Song and County Magistrate Lu standing together were comfortable no matter how he looked at them.

He couldn't bear to disturb him, but he thought of Lu Chuan's anxious look and Song Jinshu's muttering from time to time.

He finally became the bad guy, knocking on the door and shouting, "Sir! Escort Master Lu is back!"

Song Jinshu stood up and hurried forward excitedly: "Please ask him to come back!"

As she walked, she did not forget to call Lu Ruoyu. Lu Ruoyu sighed helplessly, but the corners of her mouth rose.

He remembered what Song Jinshu had instructed Lu Chuan and others when they left.

According to the time, Lu Chuan should have just arrived in Jingyang County. He came here in such a hurry that he must have gained something.

With the same expectant look as Song Jinshu, he quickly caught up with the two people in front.

When we arrived at the living room, Lu Chuan was sitting there drinking hot tea. It was so cold that day, and this cup of hot tea made him feel warm.

From a distance, Song Jinshu bared his front teeth and greeted, "Brother Lu, you're back! Did you have a smooth journey?"

Lu Chuan stood up calmly, greeted the two of them respectfully, and then the three of them took their seats.

After a sip of hot tea, he started talking.

Song Jinshu listened to what Lu Chuan had heard along the way, exclaiming in surprise from time to time, and they had a very pleasant chat.

After a while, Lu Chuan changed the subject and opened the bag behind him.

"My Lord once asked me to look for cotton, but we went all the way north and asked around for a long time, but no one had ever heard of cotton."

Lu Chuan sighed, thinking back to the time when he was looking for cotton. Then he felt happy and said with a smile, "Fortunately, we didn't give up. One day when we passed by a village, we saw villagers coming down from the mountain to collect firewood..."

"When I saw the firewood the villagers were carrying, I thought it looked very similar to the cotton the adults had described. After asking, the villagers told me it was called kapok. There were a lot of them growing behind their village, but they were useless and just took up space!"

"The villagers all use it as matches. I thought that cotton and kapok both have the word 'cotton' in their name, and they look so similar, and feel soft and fluffy."

"Then we bought large quantities of kapok from the villagers. Because the kapok had grown all over the mountain and was inedible, the villagers pulled it up by the roots and sold it to us after hearing that we could make money."

"There are also old farmers who taught us how to protect the roots. This doesn't require a long journey, and the flowers here are still there!"

Lu Chuan carefully took out a kapok flower. When he looked at the familiar cotton, Song Jinshu was overjoyed.

"This is the cotton I was talking about! Brother Lu, you guys have done a great thing! This thing benefits both the country and the people. With it, the people can safely get through the cold winter!"
