After picking up a lucky girl, all the beasts line up to come to your door

Hua Yun and the others found it funny. Children's ideas are just weird.

But when they saw Zheng Xingguang, who was also a child, they no longer had such thoughts. This child did not have so many strange ideas.

"Baby, this isn't a map of fish." Zheng Xingguang had endless patience with Wooden Baby. "It's a map that shows the conditions of every place. It's called a map."

He pointed to the map in Hua Yun's hand and said, "That's it."

Mu Baobao probably understood, "I thought it was fish to eat."

Zheng Xingguang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Are you thinking about eating again?"

"But you are a mountain product, you can't eat these recently."

Mu Baobao was drooling with greed, "I'm really craving fish."

"Brother, grilled fish is really delicious, but you can't eat too much."

She had a bitter face and was sighing. She couldn't eat grilled fish or meat until the bubbles in her mouth healed.

She is so pitiful.

Zheng Xingguang didn't know how to comfort her. He knew very well how much the baby loved to eat meat.

Not letting her baby eat meat is a very painful thing for her.

But she has a sore throat and can't eat meat recently.

"Baby, let's see if you dare to be greedy in the future." Hua Yun tapped the little junior sister's forehead lightly and continued to look at the map.

"Prince Zheng, is there anywhere you want to go?"

Zheng Xingguang said no, "We'll just go wherever we go."

Hua Yun pointed to a place on the map and said, "Let's go here."

“I went here a few years ago. There’s a small waterfall here and the scenery is pretty nice.”

"Besides, it will be cool to go to the waterfall in this weather."

Mu Baobao was the first to raise his hand in agreement, "Yes! Yes!"

"Brother, I haven't seen a waterfall yet... But what is a waterfall? Is it related to cloth?"

Zheng Xingguang said with a smile, "It's a river that flows down from a cliff. It's called a waterfall. It's very beautiful."

Mu Baobao still didn't quite understand, "Second Brother, let's go here, it must be very beautiful."

Zheng Xingguang had no objection.

So, the group turned and headed towards the waterfall that Hua Yun mentioned.

only……

"Where's the waterfall?" Baby Mu scratched his head as he looked at the bare cliff and the stream without water.

"Brother, didn't you say there was a waterfall here? Where is the waterfall?"

Although Zheng Xingguang was small, he noticed something was wrong. "Baby, can you sit here for a while?"

Mu Baobao nodded obediently, sat on a low stool beside him, and waited with his hands on his chin.

Zheng Xingguang picked up a small stone covered with moss from the stream and said, "It's a little wet, which means there's still water in the next two days."

Judging from the current weather, if there had been no water for a long time, the moss would have dried up long ago and there would be no water on the stones.

Hua Yun went out a lot, so he checked the creek and the cliffs. "I guess it's just as Prince Zheng said."

"I remember that this waterfall had a large flow and the water splashed quite far."

"In this situation, I'm afraid someone is playing tricks on me."

Sang Ye's first reaction was to sell water, but the emperor had already cleared out a batch of them, and he hadn't heard of anyone selling water for the time being.

Could it be that someone is secretly disobeying my orders?

"Let the guards check around."

He was very calm. "It's such a big waterfall, and it's not really dry yet. It's impossible for the water to run out so quickly."

After receiving the order, the guards left behind some protection personnel while the rest of the people searched the surrounding area.

"Could it be someone selling water?" Mu Pingping said, "We've encountered people selling water before, so there's no guarantee there won't be someone selling water."

Sang Ye said, "It's hard to say."

"The Emperor has severely punished a number of people. Logically, no one would commit crimes in defiance of the law, but there is no guarantee that there won't be any."

Zheng Xingguang sneered, "Some people will do anything for their own selfish interests."

"Some people may think that this place is far away from Rongdu, so the emperor won't notice it."

Shangguan Quan said, "Second Brother, tell me about the situation around here and the situation of the county magistrate here."

Hua Yun reminisced and said, "I came here two or three years ago. I'm not sure if the county magistrate has changed."

"According to the rules, the county magistrate is replaced every three years. Even if there are tens of thousands of people, the letter is useless."

"Why?" asked Mu Baobao. "What is the Book of Nations? A lot of books?"

Hua Yun said carefully, "Baby, the Wanmin Shu is a petition written by many people, hoping that the county magistrate can continue to stay."

Mu Baobao exclaimed, "So there are such things."

Hua Yun said, "This rule exists because many years ago, a county magistrate threatened the people and wrote a letter to the people. He then stayed in one place and became a local tyrant for over a decade."

"Not only did this man impose numerous taxes, he also created his own army. If he weren't so arrogant and complacent, I'm afraid something serious would have happened."

"Ever since this incident, the emperor at the time issued a decree that any county magistrate must be replaced every three years. No one's pleas were of any use, not even petitions from the people."

Mu Pingping was quite surprised when he heard about this for the first time. "This has happened before."

Sang Ye said, "When you get to know more people in the future, you will know more things."

"Some things are only circulated among the rich and powerful, and some things are known by few people."

"For some things, even fewer people know about them."

Zheng Xingguang said, "If it involves some issues, not many people will know about it."

Mu Pingping bowed and thanked him, "Thank you for letting me know."

He understood that Mr. Sang and Prince Zheng meant well to him.

It would be good for him to know more about certain things.

"Okay, let's continue talking about this waterfall." Hua Yun brought the topic back. "I remember that this waterfall is not far from nearby Quanzhou."

"Quanzhou?" Shangguan Quan clenched his right fist and lightly tapped the palm of his left hand. "I have an impression of this place."

"It's said that there's a famous waterfall in Quanzhou. Could it be this waterfall?"

Hua Yun said, "It's this waterfall."

"Quanzhou isn't as famous as you say. It was the people who spread the word that this waterfall is special."

"You know, Third Brother, there are always some superstitious people who always associate various things with gods and immortals."

Shangguan Quan was aware of this. "I remember the county magistrate of Quanzhou was replaced not long ago, right?"

No one present could answer him.

None of them held any official position, and even Zheng Xingguang didn't know about this.

"Ask the secret guard." Sang Ye raised his hand to call a secret guard and rubbed his eyebrows.

The lack of anyone among them holding an official position is not very convenient in these aspects.

The secret guard said, "The Quanzhou County Magistrate was replaced half a year ago."

"The previous county magistrate was beheaded for corruption, so this one is a recent one."

Shangguan Quan stroked his chin. "A county magistrate has only been in office for half a year, and something like this has happened."

"Either the county magistrate is the leader, or he is kept in the dark."

Hua Yun said, "It's not ruled out that the county magistrate is deliberately keeping this in the dark."

"If a county magistrate's power is stripped away, and he becomes a county magistrate in name only, he often has to play dumb in order to survive."
