A post-apocalyptic female soul travels back to the War of Resistance against Japan

At this moment, a man stepped forward from among the ministers and said, "Little girl, ever since you came in, you said you had food, and we believed you!"

"Moreover, your act of donating so much food for disaster relief is very righteous and I admire you very much."

"I will believe what you have said for now, because after all, no one would dare to risk their life by running to the Emperor to die. Although I do not know your identity, everything you have said is shocking to us!"

"And what's most shocking is that you say you have a car that can travel a thousand miles a day, that's a bit of an exaggeration!"

Cheng Ying smiled and introduced herself, "My name is Lin Tong'er, and I am five years old."

"I am from Wutong Town, Anqing Prefecture, Yunzhou. May I ask who you are, sir?"

Cheng Ying's use of the word "uncle" made the ministers and the man in front of them even more uncomfortable.

The ministers all frowned. This was utter nonsense. This was no place for children.

This is the Imperial Study, the place where important state affairs are discussed!

Cheng Ying spoke very casually, but most children her age wouldn't have such courage. She seemed unaware of who the people in front of her were!

It should be said that she didn't care who the people standing in front of her were or what their status was. In her eyes, they were just like her neighbors, uncles and elders.

Her way of speaking made these usually arrogant officials feel frustrated; they couldn't possibly put on airs with a child.

They had been officials for many years, and their imposing presence made ordinary people cower in fear when they saw them, but this child did not see that!

Not only the little girl, but even the little boy next to her, who was a little younger than her, did not show any fear or apprehension, which made them feel both frustrated and helpless.

The person who had just spoken was about to introduce himself when Duke Anguo spoke.

"Miss Lin, let me introduce you! This is Li You, the Prime Minister of our Lin Yue Kingdom!"

"And these are the others as well. These four are our Grand Secretaries of the Cabinet: the Grand Secretary of the Wenhua Hall, the Grand Secretary of the Wuying Hall, the Grand Secretary of the Wenyuan Pavilion, and the Grand Secretary of the Dongge Pavilion!"

Duke Anguo introduced all the ministers in the shop, then bowed to them and said:

"My lords, let me introduce you. This Miss Lin and my unfilial son Jiang Yifei are disciples of the same sect."

"And His Highness Prince Rui and His Highness the Crown Prince, they both studied under the same master, so they are now senior and junior brothers and sisters."

"Oh, the main point I want to make is that the master they've been apprenticed to is no ordinary person. Do you gentlemen understand what I'm saying?"

The officials, including the Prime Minister, nodded silently. It turned out that this little girl was not only related to the third son of the Duke of Anguo, but also to Prince Rui and the Crown Prince, who were fellow disciples.

No wonder she was so fearless; it turns out she had such strong backing. Moreover, the teacher who could make Prince Rui, the Crown Prince, and the third young master of the Duke of Anguo all take the same master must be no ordinary person!

It's not surprising that this little girl could produce so much grain, but a vehicle that can travel a thousand miles a day is truly unheard of and unseen!

Seeing that the crowd had quieted down, Emperor Ye Shengtang then spoke:

"Miss Lin, if you can help Duke Anguo transport the grain safely and smoothly to the disaster-stricken Lanzhou, I will appoint you as a county princess, and all the villages under the jurisdiction of Anqing Prefecture and Huangye County in Yunzhou will be under your name, how about that?"

Cheng Ying couldn't help but laugh when she heard this. It seemed that all the things she had done were not entirely in vain. In the beginning, she was not after any reputation. First of all, the Duke of Anguo was Shi Mobai's family in this life!

Secondly, regardless of which life she lived, she felt that doing what she could and doing good deeds had become a habit.

It can be considered as accumulating merit for oneself, family, and friends. Intuitively, it's always right to do good deeds and be a good person.

I never expected to be able to become a county magistrate; it's quite a novel experience.

“Alright! Your Majesty, I agree!” Cheng Ying said with a smile.

The emperor also intended to elevate Cheng Ying's status, since the crown prince's intentions were already quite clear.

Improving Cheng Ying's or the Lin family's status at the right opportunity would pave the way for the Crown Prince.

But the ministers were even more shocked. Even though this Miss Lin was related to Prince Rui and His Highness the Crown Prince as fellow disciples, this was still giving the little girl far too much credit!

Could there be some hidden story they don't know? Prime Minister Li, however, is thinking even more deeply. It seems he needs to inquire more about this Miss Lin in private.

Cheng Ying then said to the Emperor, "Your Majesty, if I am to make the arrangements, then you must follow my arrangements, is that alright?"

The Emperor made the decision, saying, "Very well! Then I'll leave everything to Miss Lin."

"Your Majesty, please arrange for some people to go with you as soon as possible!"

"Let me know once you've made the arrangements, including the exact number of people going!"

"So I can prepare vehicles according to the number of people."
