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

Song Jinshu frantically searched the original owner's memory. She remembered that this seemed to have happened when the original owner first took office.

At that time, she had been lying down comfortably for more than a month, thinking about eating, drinking and having fun every day, and not caring about the affairs of the county at all.

Once a student came to her for help, and the original owner got a lot of good things from him. She wrote whatever the student asked her to write.

Song Jinshu was just thinking about it when he heard someone calling for him outside.

"Sir, someone wants to ask you for help with a gift!" Big Head blinked his big eyes and said in a loud voice.

At this time last year, the master had instructed that if any scholars came to the house, only those with gifts would be allowed in.

As soon as Li Zi walked to the gate of the yard, he heard what Datou said. His face twisted with anger and he glared at Datou unhappily.

Then he said loudly, "Sir, a group of scholars have come outside and want to ask you about the number of places for the Songyun Academy."

"I'll go out and take a look!"

While Big Head was speaking, she had already stood up, and when she reached the door, she heard Li Zi's explanation.

It seems that these students are here for the admission quota to Songyun Academy.

In this case, she has to screen carefully. After all, it is considered an achievement for someone to pass the exam from her county.

In the reception room.

The students gathered together, and everyone secretly observed the gifts brought by others.

It is clear at a glance who brings a lighter gift and who brings a heavier one. Some people bring lighter gifts and secretly regret it, while others bring heavier gifts and feel proud of themselves.

After all, they heard last year that the students recommended to Songjun Academy from Jingyang County were only considered based on the size of their gifts, not their academic knowledge.

The people present now are all sons of wealthy businessmen from various counties. They are less educated than others, but they are so poor that they only have money left.

Before Song Jinshu arrived, he said, "Sorry to have kept you waiting."

All the students bowed their heads in unison towards Song Jinshu and said, "Your Excellency, I greet you."

Song Jinshu walked up to the high seat and amiably asked them to sit down. Then he said, "I understand the purpose of your visit. You are all the elites of our county and the pride of our county..."

"Songjun Academy is about to start recruiting students. I will not let talented people waste their time. Everyone should work harder and fully display their talents. Don't let your future be delayed."

The students present blushed when they heard this. Was Lord Song pointing out that they were not well educated, so they were thinking of these weird ways?

Everyone immediately lost their confidence. Someone said cautiously, "Your Excellency is too polite. It is a blessing for us to be chosen by you."

It seems that this gift is still a little light.

Song Jinshu saw that they were all polite and well-dressed, and thought they must be from wealthy families.

But it is understandable, after all, a poor family cannot afford to have a scholar.

"I wonder where you are from?"

Basic family background checks are Song Jinshu's usual practice, and helping every poor student is a blessing.

Upon hearing this, the students started talking about their family backgrounds.

"The student is from the Zhang family in Fengdeng County..."

"The student is from the Wang family in Dafang County..."

"The student is from Jing'an County..."

“…Miyun County…”

"The student is from Guangrao County..."

After all the students finished speaking, Song Jinshu's smile froze on his face. Why are they all from other counties?

There isn't one in this county?

Song Jinshu was surprised, yet also puzzled. "All of you students should know this! Songjun Academy is still the top academy in Shun'an Prefecture, and the teaching quality there is top-notch..."

"For the development of each county, the headmaster has decided that each county will have ten recommended admission quotas each year."

"I'm sure you all know how valuable these ten spots are. You're not from my county, so why are you competing for spots here?"

After all, no one is willing to share their good things with outsiders. Aren’t they stupid?

When the students heard this, they looked at each other. They were all scholars and knew more about etiquette, righteousness, integrity and shame than ordinary people, so they explained with red faces.

"I have heard that Master Song is very generous and is not limited to students from this county, so I have the audacity to bring gifts and ask for your help."

As he said this, he asked the servant behind him to bring the gift box over, opened the box himself, and showed it to Song Jinshu.

Song Jinshu was silent...

It turns out that they all came to her for backdoor access!

Song Jinshu was stunned for a moment, then recovered and gently but firmly refused, "I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request. I believe that with your knowledge, you can all secure these ten spots in your own counties."

After saying this, she picked up the teacup and said that she couldn't walk anymore. The students looked embarrassed when they saw this.

The gift from that student was the most important among them. If he couldn't achieve his goal, then theirs would have no chance of achieving it.

Either Song Jinshu's appetite has grown, or she really doesn't want to sell the spot.

The students went with anticipation and returned disappointed.

Some people gave up and chose to go back and compete with the students in the county.

Some people took a different approach and prepared to go back and prepare more money to visit again.

In short, no matter what choice is made, no one can get what they want today.

After they left, the students from Jingyang County hid in the corner and watched, feeling aggrieved but helpless.

Who made them not have a good family background and not have much wealth?

However, those who have this idea are in the minority, and most of them are looking forward to it and are eager to try it.

Song Jinshu's changes and attitude over the past year gave them a glimmer of hope.

Lady Song is not a greedy person. She should reject students from other counties for them and reserve the places for students from this county!

After everyone left, Song Jinshu immediately issued an order to post a notice for the students to be admitted to the exam.

At this time, every move of the county government was watched by these students or their families, and they went to read the notice as soon as possible.

When the whole county saw the news, it was in an uproar. One person told another, and it spread quickly within a day.

All students, whether they are studying at home or in private schools in other counties, must come to the county to read the notice.

After repeatedly confirming the time, everyone rushed home to study hard.

Song Jinshu encountered a difficult problem. She was good at organizing exams, but her knowledge was just average.

The original owner's knowledge was only slightly better than theirs. The reason why he passed the imperial examination was that the number of candidates was expanded that year, and the original owner guessed the key questions correctly.

It is difficult for her to mark the papers fairly and impartially without any personal subjective thoughts.

Therefore, Song Jinshu found Lu Ruoyu. When Lu Ruoyu heard about this, he did not refuse and nodded in agreement.

Ten days later, the admission examination for Songyun Academy officially began.

For students in Jingyang County, this represents whether they can be admitted to top universities, and also represents their future starting point and future.

The students' attitude is comparable to that of facing the imperial examination.

Song Jinshu personally supervised the exam with a rigorous and serious attitude, which made the students feel relieved.

Everyone competes fairly and justly, and the rest depends on real talent and knowledge.

Song Jinshu, who was sitting in the seat of honor, was supervising the exam while thinking about the problem.

Only then did she realize that Jingyang County did not have a decent county school or private school.
