Yun Yi, under his "wise" leadership, the ministers in the court all looked pale.

It’s not that I don’t want to be proactive, but I just can’t find my way.

After all, even the emperor is too lazy to breathe, so why should they waste their energy?

As a result, the side branches of the Yun royal family had the opportunity to show their strength, especially the county magistrate of Hushui County, King Yun Boenen.

Yun Boen, the grandson of the thirteenth son of the retired emperor, is an absolute "person with excess abilities".

When he was in the capital, he was like a shining star, illuminating the entire court and eclipsing countless colleagues.

It's a pity that the tallest tree in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

When the old emperor saw that this guy was more eye-catching than himself, he was so jealous that he waved his hand and demoted him to Hushui County and made him a county magistrate!

This demotion will last a lifetime.

Hushui County is not a simple place. It is adjacent to Nanyang and suffers greatly from the drought there.

The population has not decreased, and it has become even more crowded due to the increase in the number of refugees. It is more difficult to manage than to embroider, and the work of education is even more daunting.

Yun Boen wrote to the court many times, asking for support, but what was the result? It was like a stone thrown into the sea, without even a bubble.

In desperation, Yun Bowen had to use his "family notebook" and mobilize a little bit of his "private power".

It turns out that the Emperor Yun Yi's health is already "crumbling", just like autumn leaves, ready to "return to the roots" at any time.

Yun Boen was so excited, thinking: This is my chance, if something happens to the emperor...

But on second thought, the people’s affairs cannot wait!

So he decided to take a gamble, not on the throne, but on his own wisdom and courage.

He first organized a "water-saving competition" to let the people use their brains to see who had the best water-saving trick. The prize was the "Love the People Rice" produced by the county government.

This move not only stimulated people's awareness of water conservation, but also reduced a lot of pressure on the county government's rice warehouse. It was really a win-win situation!

Then, he launched the "Night School Program" and hired several respected old gentlemen to give classes to the children at night, teaching them to read and write. They also told stories about how ancient heroes overcame difficulties to inspire the children to succeed.

As a result, the nights in Hushui County are no longer silent, but filled with the sound of reading and laughter.

Just when Yun Boen was busy and preparing to make a few big moves, news came from the capital: Emperor Yun Yi actually "lay down" because of a sudden cold!

At this point, the entire court was in an uproar, but Yun Boen, on the other hand, was silently praying in his heart for the emperor to recover soon (after all, he still had some loyalty to the emperor).

At the same time, he was secretly thinking: As the "savior of a ruined county", should I also make preparations? In case I am recalled one day, I must give the emperor a big surprise.

Therefore, Yun Boen worked even harder. While governing Hushui County, he secretly practiced the "secrets of promotion and salary increase" in preparation for a possible "gorgeous turnaround".

As for whether he could leap from a county magistrate to an important official in the court, it all depended on whether his "bad-assed fighting technique" could impress the "bad-assed emperor"...

Just when Yun Bowen was busy in Hushui County, playing the role of both father and mother, he had to solve the problem of food and clothing for the people and worry about the children's education.

However, a ridiculous piece of news came from the capital: Emperor Yun Yi, due to an "enlightenment during illness" after catching a cold, suddenly developed a strong interest in governing the country!

When the news came out, the entire court was stunned and the ministers looked at each other in bewilderment.

The emperor suddenly "awoke"?

When Yun Bourne heard the news, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

While he was silently happy for the emperor's "recovery", he was secretly worried: If the emperor really starts to work hard and love the people, how can I, the "savior of a messed-up county", continue to shine?

However, on second thought, it is a good thing that the emperor is diligent in his work. Maybe he can even promote me. After all, I do have real talents and knowledge!

So, Yun Boen decided that since the emperor wanted to work hard, he would add icing on the cake.

He summarized his experience in governing Hushui County and wrote a book called "The Handbook of Governance of Bad Counties" (of course, this was just self-mockery in his heart, the actual title of the book must be more formal), and presented it to the emperor. Maybe he would even be appreciated!

Yun Bowen started working hard right away, sorting out information while recalling every detail of his time in Hushui County.

He recorded in detail a series of measures including his water-saving competition, night school plan, farmland transformation, etc., and also attached letters of thanks from the people and displays of the children's learning achievements.

This is truly a "laboratory work" that moved Yun Boen himself to tears.

Finally, after countless days and nights of hard work, the "Guide to Bad County Governance" was completed!

Yun Bourne carefully packaged it and sent someone to deliver it to the capital.

However, there was another big news from Nanyang. Someone transported rainwater from thousands of miles away here, so there was no need for people to leave their homes at all.

Therefore, the villagers who had previously moved to Hushui County moved back again.
