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

The next day.

At the entrance of Jingyang County, Song Jinshu rubbed his eyes tiredly and forced himself to stand up.

She won some money yesterday and was so happy that she couldn't sleep. She only took a short nap when it was almost dawn.

Thinking that food would arrive today, she forced herself to get up. Now her head was nodding and she could only stand by leaning against the wall.

This was the scene Lu Ruoyu saw when she came over after buying breakfast.

He sighed helplessly and moved closer to her to prevent her from falling asleep and hitting her head.

Looking at the steaming meat buns in his hand, he hesitated for two seconds, broke open a meat bun, and began to eat it slowly.

“…It smells so good…”

Sure enough, as he expected, Song Jinshu opened his eyes and looked at him eagerly.

Lu Ruoyu curled the corners of her mouth slightly, pretending not to see her desire. The next moment, Song Jinshu spoke.

"County Magistrate Lu... Good morning! Are you having breakfast?"

"Well! Would you like to eat something, sir?"

Song Jinshu's eyes lit up, and he rubbed his hands awkwardly: "How can this be so embarrassing? Just two will be enough!"

"Hehe! Thank you~"

Lu Ruoyu smiled helplessly, then picked out the flavor she liked and gave it to her.

The two stood side by side, eating meat buns and looking into the distance.

It's still early now, and I don't know when Lu Chuan and the others will arrive.

After a while, Shen Fenghua also came over yawning. The three of them were waiting eagerly, attracting a lot of attention.

The soldiers guarding the gate also looked in their direction curiously, but there was nothing.

After watching for a while, he continued patrolling in boredom.

Finally, when the three thought they would not be able to wait for Lu Chuan and his companions in the morning, they saw a neat caravan coming.

Lu Ruoyu recognized the person at a glance: "It's Lu Chuan!"

Upon hearing this, Song Jinshu quickly dusted off his butt and stood up.

Ahead was a large group of people, followed by about ten horse-drawn carts.

The three of them walked forward and the people on the opposite side also saw them.

"Lord Song! County Magistrate Lu! I have brought all the items back safely!"

Lu Chuan saluted Song Jinshu and Lu Ruoyu, but when he saw Shen Fenghua, he was blinded.

Fortunately, Song Jinshu introduced them in time, and Lu Chuan greeted Shen Fenghua with a smile again.

"There are too many people here, let's go back and talk!"

With so much food, her granary should be full!

Lu Chuan nodded, then signaled the people behind him to follow, and the group arrived at the county government's granary.

After personally supervising the putting of all the food in and locking the door, Song Jinshu's restless heart finally settled down.

She smiled gratefully, "I was able to successfully purchase this grain this time, thanks to Master Lu... Master Lu, I've already prepared a welcoming banquet at the restaurant. Shall we eat and chat?"

Lu Chuan was a little surprised by Song Jinshu's handling of the matter. He subconsciously looked at Lu Ruoyu, and seeing that he had no expression, he thought about it and nodded in agreement.

Before he left, their new county magistrate was not as amiable a person as he is now.

He was very curious about what had happened in Jingyang County recently.

Just now when he was walking back along the street, he saw how close the people were to Song Jinshu, and he had been extremely curious.

"Thank you for your hospitality, sir. I will respectfully obey your orders."

This Lu Chuan is quite interesting and gave Song Jinshu a good first impression. Most importantly, she likes people with brains.

The fact that Lu Chuan was able to transport such a large amount of food back without attracting anyone's attention shows that he is a capable man.

Song Jinshu's heart began to warm up. Is it possible that this person could become her subordinate in the future?

She is desperately short of people!

There is no rush. The person is in Jingyang County and she has plenty of time to poach him.

At the dinner table, several people raised their glasses and exchanged a few polite words.

Lu Chuan's face was stiff even when he was smiling. It would be strange if he could feel at ease among so many unfamiliar adults who were of much higher status than him!

Song Jinshu was very curious about what Lu Chuan had encountered along the way, so he brought it up.

Lu Chuan sighed slightly, frowning slightly: "My journey to Zhengding Prefecture was smooth sailing. Although there were some setbacks in the process of purchasing grain privately, I was able to avoid them all without any danger.

It’s just that there was an accident on the way back…”

Song Jinshu and the other two looked at each other, feeling a bad premonition.

Lu Chuan explained: "On the way back, we ran into robbers!"

"Hiss...Master Lu, are you okay?"

Song Jinshu's heart was beating like a drum. In ancient times, robbery meant killing people without blinking an eye!

Lu Ruoyu frowned, while Shen Fenghua lowered his head, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lu Chuan continued, "Don't worry, sir. Most of us were just frightened, and a few of us had minor skin injuries. They are all healed now."

"How did you escape?"

Lu Ruoyu frowned. He knew Lu Chuan's skills. If he was the only one trapped, he could escape with a little effort.

But they still need to protect the food, and the chances of escaping safely are very slim.

Speaking of this, Lu Chuan's eyes lit up, and he suppressed his joy and explained: "In fact, the other side had more people at that time, and we were no match for them. Fortunately, a merchant caravan caught up with us at this time.

It was their people who helped us escape!"

"Phew... I'm glad no one got hurt! Although this food is important, human life is more important. If I encounter something like this in the future, I would rather give up these things than save my own life!"

Song Jinshu sighed slightly. This world is no longer the peaceful era she used to live in.

If you are not careful, it can easily lead to death!

Moreover, the imperial court suppresses bandits every year, and there are new ones every year, just like cockroaches that can't be killed. They are very annoying!

Lu Chuan looked at Song Jinshu in surprise. Is this still the same County Magistrate Song who used to love money like his life?

After spending half a day together, he began to wonder if he had remembered it wrongly. Song Jinshu was not as bad as the rumors said.

"Do you know who is helping you? Where are they going?"

Lu Ruoyu was very perceptive. According to what Lu Chuan said, there were quite a few bandits who robbed their caravan.

It seemed quite unusual that this caravan could so easily take down these bandits.

Lu Chuan pursed his lips and thought carefully: "I only know that there is a Ruifeng Chamber of Commerce flag on their caravan. I don't know much else, but everyone in their caravan is very skilled!

They coordinated with each other so well and killed so decisively that at one point, I felt like they were soldiers who had experienced countless battles on the battlefield!"

Shen Fenghua's pupils dilated, and his face showed shock. He asked, "Did you see the appearance of their leader clearly?"

"No! They moved quickly. After helping us deal with the bandits, they left immediately. We were afraid that other bandits would come after us again, so we hurried away as well.

The one among them who spoke to me was just an ordinary person.”

Shen Fenghua's heart skipped a beat, and he felt vaguely uneasy deep down, as if something was wrong.
