I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

Chapter 3 Is this really a small county government?
"Well, drink the medicine first, have a good rest, and recover your health first. I won't disturb you anymore. I have arranged for the maid to be at the door. If you need anything, you can ask at any time."

After the explanation, Ning Youruo left holding the guqin in his arms.

As the door slowly closed, the footsteps faded away.

Jiang Linglong then looked at the medicine in her hand, sniffed it gently, and the next moment, she laughed guiltily, "I've ended up in this situation, who else wants to harm me?"

"If you really want to harm me, why bother saving me..."

"However, my clothes have been changed. Could it be that my identity has been guessed?"

"It's a pity that even guessing is useless. Now I am just a subjugated king. I'm afraid I can't give them the power, fame and wealth they want..."

Her eyes fell on the bedding on her body again, "However, just looking at the layout of this room, except that it is not very gilded, it does not look magnificent enough, but the level of luxury is not worse than that of the palace, and it is not lacking at all. Treasures of gold and silver.”

"It's just that this is really a small county government in Cangyun County?"

"If it were really a small county government, how much money would have to be collected to reach this level? This is the blood and sweat of many people!"

When she thought of this, Jiang Linglong's anger suddenly rose.

It took her several months to get from the Imperial City to Liangzhou. Although she was on the run, wherever she passed, people exchanged their children for food, and the people were in dire straits. However, the nobles of the aristocratic families were not affected in the slightest, and they still lived in splendid clothes. Days like jade food...

Those who suffer are all the common people!

She used to be in the palace and didn't know the sufferings of the people. Now that she has experienced it deeply, she knows how hateful these corrupt officials are.

She ignored all her government orders and failed to fulfill her orders. Everyone knew all this, but she was kept in the dark, like a joke.

It was these corrupt officials who made the entire Great Zhou full of holes and rotten to the core. Even when the Great Zhou was alive and dead, the people did not feel any pain and wished they could applaud.

At this moment, she had no good impression of the so-called county magistrate. She wished she could kill the corrupt official immediately to vent her anger.

Snapped!
The medicine bowl in his hand fell on the carpet, and the medicine splashed, making the carpet wet...

In Jiang Linglong's opinion, this medicine is no longer medicine.

That is the blood of the people!

She must not drink it!
"Although Gu is the king of the country that has perished, Gu will not die, and the Great Zhou Dynasty will live forever!"

Jiang Linglong looked cold and angrily opened the quilt. Regardless of her injuries to her legs and feet, she went to question the so-called county magistrate.

Since you dare to call the magistrate of Dazhou and the minister of Dazhou, why do you do this?

As the new emperor of the Zhou Dynasty, she should ask questions.

Even at this moment, the entire Zhou Dynasty has long been lost, and only the small Cangyun County under her feet should be like this.

But as soon as she took a step, she stopped.

"No! No, today is different from the past. I am alone now and seriously injured. How can I be taken seriously like a lost dog? I went forward so recklessly and collided with this dog officer. My life is in danger..."

"All the dead soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty died to protect me. How could I let him down? I can't die. I have to calm down, calm down!"

"I want to live! Only by living can I have a chance to restore my country in the Great Zhou Dynasty, so that those who died for me will not die in peace. In the Great Zhou Zhao Prison, there are tens of thousands of people waiting for me to save them. They rehabilitated the people, how could I betray their desire to subdue the country just because of impulse..."

Taking a deep breath, Jiang Linglong suppressed the anger in her heart and tried to calm herself down.

Questioning has no effect at all, it is nothing but death.

What she has to do now is to keep her composure, give in to others, and try her best to survive.

Although now, soldiers and horses, food, people's hearts...

She has nothing.

But she never thought about giving up. "First find out the situation here. I don't know if my identity has been exposed. Why did you take me in?"

"After understanding everything, I will look for an opportunity to take this place under my control, and it will become my first batch of foundations for the restoration of the country..."

Jiang Linglong thought to herself.

Then she thought of how prosperous the Zhou Dynasty was when thousands of nations came to congratulate it. Now that all the mountains and rivers are gone, only this corner of the land is left. She couldn't help but sigh: "It's a pity that this place is just a small county. With the war and chaos, I'm afraid it's too We can’t get many people to come.”

"However, the county government office of this dog official is so luxurious. I don't know how much people's wealth has been stolen by greed. If you can get it, you can buy a lot of soldiers, horses and food."

"In addition, the dog officials are the meat of the people. The people have been suffering for a long time and have no support from the people. As long as I eradicate the dog officials, win over the people, use this place as the foundation, develop for ten years, and then march eastward..."

If the county magistrate here was an upright official and impoverished, she would still be grateful, but at this moment, let alone gratitude, she wanted to skin the dog official.

"I don't know why Sister Ruoruo is here. Could it be that the dog official is coercing her husband's family? With Ning's style, it's better not to act as an accomplice to the tiger. It's really damn..."

"Are you okay, miss?"

At this time, there was a shout from outside the door, with a concerned tone.

"No...it's fine."

Jiang Linglong pretended to be weak and said, "I accidentally spilled the medicine..."

The maid knocked on the door three times, pushed the door open and asked, "Girl, are you hurt?"

"No."

Jiang Linglong has been used to seeing the sufferings of the world during this period, and understands the difficulties of these people. Seeing the maid so concerned, her heart warms slightly. Fortunately, the dog officer is of low character, but these people below are not bad. When she makes a comeback, she will definitely be in the future. Treat these people well.

"It's okay, girl. Just rest carefully and let me clean up. I'll give you instructions later and make another bowl for the girl."

"No, don't bother." Jiang Linglong was even more moved, "You...what's your name?"

"Ah? Girl, just call me Xiaoqing. I am the second lady's personal maid. She asked me to take care of you." Xiaoqing smiled.

"Second Madam?" Jiang Linglong narrowed her eyes slightly, "That dog... the county magistrate's wife?"

"Huh? Yes, she is Mr. Lu's wife. Mr. Lu has eight wives in total. They are all beautiful and fragrant."

The dog officer’s surname is Lu?

Jiang Linglong remained calm, suddenly thought of something, and asked casually: "I would like to ask, the sister who saved me before..."

"She is the second lady." Xiao Qing explained with a smile.

"what!"

Jiang Linglong was shocked.

She originally thought that the Xianggong Guong mentioned by Ning Youruo was a miracle doctor, but she didn't expect that he was actually a dog official? !

Does the dog officer know medical skills?
Bah, you really tainted the doctor.

But with such a bad official, how could Sister Youruo commit herself to him...

Jiang Linglong had met Ning Youruo and had a good impression of her. "Is it for money? Or is it because of coercion and the overlord's bow?"

"No...the happy look on Sister Youruo's face before didn't look like she was being coerced. What on earth is going on?"

"No matter what, it is a fact that dog officials take away people's wealth and anointing, and should not be taken lightly..."

Xiao Qing said, taking a closer look at Jiang Linglong, who was pale but a little more delicate and beautiful, and said with a smile: "Girl, you are so beautiful, maybe you will have the opportunity to become our ninth wife in the future. Then don’t forget us, girl.”
