Chapter 1 Your Majesty, this is indeed Qingyuan County
Qingyuan County, the back garden of the county government office.
"County Master, the documents from the governor's office have arrived!"
In the courgette field, Chen Yuan put down his hoe, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and glanced at the Zhao Zhubu who was breaking in.
"The document says that the emperor has been on a tour in a very short dress recently, so that our counties will be careful. Once the emperor's trace is found, they will immediately report it to the governor's mansion."
"Her Majesty the Queen is on a tour in a very small way?"
Chen Yuan sat at the stone table, picked up a piece of melon and ate two bites with big sauce.
"This is indeed a big deal. Tell everyone below that they have been hardworking recently. Anyone who finds gambling, prostitutes, or fights will be fined and sent to jail for seven days!"
"In a special period, if anyone dares to commit crimes against the wind, don't blame me for being ruthless in the Qingyuan government!"
"Don't worry, I'll go and rectify the appearance of the county, and there is no black sheep."
Zhubu Zhao bowed his hand and left the back garden directly.
Looking at the back of his subordinates, Chen Yuan shook his head helplessly. It seemed that he would have to manage the folk customs well in the future.
Otherwise, it will be a trouble in the future.
When I traveled here, I thought I would have been having a leisurely life, but I was sent by the Ministry of Personnel to a remote area to be the magistrate.
The worst thing is that Qingyuan County is located in poor mountains and rivers, and the people cannot even eat. In just a few years, the population has dropped sharply to 3,000.
When the previous magistrate saw him take over, he was so excited that he burst into tears and kept saying, "God bless you, you finally got over it."
After checking the seal, the old man didn't even want official boots, so he climbed onto the donkey and left.
It can be seen how difficult the situation is.
If Chen Yuan had not been decisive in his work and pretended to be a bandit and went to the official road to rob the convoys of landlords and old finances, the Qingyuan people would have been dead long ago.
How could this prosperous situation be?
Eight years!
It took Chen Yuan just eight years to develop a poor and poor county into one of the most prosperous counties in Qingzhou Prefecture.
The originally remote place has become a transit place where merchants gather.
In theory, Chen Yuan should be commended by the Ministry of Personnel for such achievements.
But somehow, the state has never reported it.
At the beginning, Chen Yuan was a little dissatisfied, but later he felt relieved.
It seems good to stay in Qingyuan County, where mountains and rivers are beautiful and rich in resources, to be a parent official.
Why go out and get muddy water?
Thinking of this, Chen Yuan’s thoughts became more firm!
At most, Qingyuan County must be built into the number one county in the Great Zhou Dynasty!
"By the way, Uncle Fu, tomorrow will be the big market in our county. Have caravans from all over the country come?"
Chen Yuan ate the courgette and patted his body and stood up.
"Return to the county master, caravans from all over the country have moved into local inns one after another. I think it's almost done." The old man replied with a smile on his face.
"That's good. Our county's restaurants and inns are all counting on these God of Wealth to spend."
"Let's go to Fengyuelou to see how those young girls are training."
Chen Yuan nodded, then left the county government office and walked towards Fengyue Tower!
...
Qingzhou, official road.
Caravans under various banners were constantly walking towards the county town. There was only one carriage with special features, and there were only two "merchantists" with extraordinary temperament.
"Your Majesty, this place is still two hundred miles away from Qingzhou Prefecture. I'm afraid I won't be able to get there before dark."
Shangguan Wan'er sat in front of the shaft, driving the carriage while looking at the woman in the carriage.
The woman is the Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty and Wu Zetian!
Although he was dressed as a scholar, he had a certain temperament in his behavior. When he heard the words Qingzhou, a trace of worry flashed between his eyebrows.
A few days ago, she had a dream. In the dream, the people were displaced and the crops were harvested. Queen Wang and other unjust souls accused her of taking away the magical artifact of Li Tang and causing disasters to be punished by God.
After waking up, Wu Zetian hurriedly found the Imperial Heaven Supervision. After some astrological calculations, the final conclusion was that Ying Huo guarded his heart and the emperor was in danger!
If you want to resolve the problem, you can only go to Qingzhou to find Taiyi Fuxing in person to escape danger.
So she came quietly with Shangguan Wan'er.
Seeing that the sun had passed noon, Wu Zetian nodded lightly.
"The mountains and rivers in Qingzhou are dangerous and bad. Let's find a place to stay first. It's not too late to go on a journey tomorrow."
"Yes, your Majesty."
Shangguan Wan'er shook the reins and drove the carriage forward. Not far away, she found a erected boundary marker in front of her.
There are a few big words about dragons and phoenixes dancing on it.
"Welcome to all distinguished guests to our county!"
Signature, magistrate of Qingyuan, Chenyuan.
"Your Majesty, we have reached the boundary of Qingyuan County, but this boundary marker..."
Shangguan Wan'er's face was a little weird.
Upon hearing this, Wu Zetian slowly opened his eyes and looked at the boundary marker at the intersection. He was stunned, and then his face became gloomy.
She didn't expect that the Qingyuan magistrate didn't even want to be honest in order to flatter him.
He actually put such explicit words at the intersection in broad daylight.
It's embarrassing, embarrassing!
"Wan'er, do you know what year Chen Yuan was? I will dismiss him from office and search his house immediately!"
"Have your majesty calm down."
Shangguan Wan'er advised: "We are going out for a condom this time. If we are exposed to our whereabouts to punish a county magistrate, we will lose some of our big mistakes."
"It's better to go to the county first to take a look. It's not too late to punish us in the future."
"Okay, I'll take a look at what this bastard magistrate has harmed Qingyuan."
Wu Zetian nodded and dropped the curtain.
Seeing this, Shangguan Wan'er shook the reins and drove into Qingyuan County.
As time passed, Wu Zetian woke up from a nap and felt the cool breeze in the carriage, which was particularly comfortable.
"Wan'er, have you arrived at the place? Why don't you leave?"
"Your Majesty, come out and take a look. The empress dowager is a little afraid to recognize him." Shangguan Wan'er's surprised voice came from outside the carriage.
Wu Zetian frowned slightly and came out of the carriage.
She was ready to see the ruins and desolate.
Um?
This is...
When Wu Zetian looked at Qingyuan County, he was stunned.
A deep shock surged into her heart.
This is not a poor county with poor mountains and rivers, it is clearly a paradise with beautiful mountains and rivers!
There was a flat avenue in front of me. I don’t know what materials were used, and it was extremely smooth. Hundreds of carriages were loaded with cargo heading towards the county town.
"Wan'er, are you sure we didn't go in the wrong direction?"
Shangguan Wan'er shook her head vigorously, "Your Majesty, this is Qingzhou Prefecture and Qingyuan County."
"A place where officials are out of reach on the list of the Ministry of Personnel."
"I see……"
A smile appeared on Wu Zetian's lips, "I didn't expect that a small Qingyuan County would actually make Lu Bu better than the Shendu Luoyang. It's incredible."
Shangguan Wan'er nodded with a smile.
"Yes, according to my observation, this road is extremely strong and will not need to be repaired for at least five years, and I don't know how the magistrate of Qingyuan built it."
When talking about the Qingyuan magistrate, Wu Zetian laughed.
Chapter completed!
