"you you……"

Startled, the county magistrate's breathing became disordered and more sweat appeared on his forehead.

A word was stuck in his throat for a long time and he couldn't utter it, but his vision became more and more blurred, and finally his vision went black and he fell to the ground with a bang.

When he woke up again, the county magistrate was already in the county government office.

He exclaimed and sat up, moving his fat body, and the bed creaked.

Suddenly turning around, I saw a screen not far from me.

Before he could react, an oppressive figure appeared in front of him.

"Lord Jiang, you're awake." The deputy general raised his eyebrows and said.

The county magistrate's heart tightened, his eyes rolled back and his body was about to fall down.

The deputy general stretched out his hand and pulled the county magistrate off the bed.

I thought it wasn't a big deal, but I almost lost my wrist.

The deputy general gritted his teeth, let go of the county magistrate, and protected his wrist tightly.

"Lord Jiang, you don't believe me, and you don't believe that what I said is real, but you can't not believe this official seal, right?" Shen Wantang spoke slowly and handed the official seal in his hand to Cen Xiao.

Cen Xiao showed the official seal to the county magistrate.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know me. After all, I have been fighting all over the country with my father in the past few years, and there is little news about me in the court." Shen Wantang slowly put down the teacup in his hand and let out a long sigh.

The young lady of an official family who followed her father to fight in all directions...

County Magistrate Jiang seemed to be thinking for a long time before he suddenly realized: "So it's General Shen's daughter. I'm sorry, I'm sorry!"

Through the screen, the county magistrate could only vaguely see Shen Wantang's shadow. He stared at the screen for a long time, but still couldn't figure out what she looked like.

After all, Miss Shen is famous, and many people want to take a look at this extraordinary woman.

The fight at the city gate just now was so chaotic that I didn't get a clear look at Shen Wantang. It was really a mistake!

Cen Xiao frowned and moved forward to block the county magistrate's sight.

"As soon as I received the news, I made arrangements to welcome Miss Shen, but I didn't expect that I had prepared in the wrong direction." County Magistrate Jiang showed a simple smile, but his slanted eyes showed his cunning.

After a long time, Shen Wantang slowly stood up.

"Don't bother me, Lord Jiang. I am traveling all the way south to understand the people's sentiments for Your Majesty. Since I want to understand the people's sentiments, I naturally want to integrate with the people."

As she spoke, she slowly came forward from behind the screen.

County Magistrate Jiang slowly raised his head, but as soon as he did so, he remembered what happened to Shen Wantang at the city gate.

Then he immediately lowered his head.

"Then, Miss Shen wants to be your subordinate. How do we arrange this?" Magistrate Jiang's voice trembled.

"There's no need to make too much trouble. Tomorrow at noon, the county government office will be opened and I will respond to the people's requests." Shen Wantang said straightforwardly.

After leaving a few words and a faint smile, Shen Wantang turned and left.

Only County Magistrate Jiang was left in the room, completely confused.

"Sir... Sir, are you okay?" The bailiff who had been waiting for a long time came forward hurriedly.

County Magistrate Jiang then stood up tremblingly: "Go and check which inn Shen Wantang and the others are staying in."

With just one glance, the bailiff understood what Magistrate Jiang meant.

Shen Wantang's carriage drove through the street, and the people's curious eyes were focused on the carriage.

Everyone knew what happened at the city gate in the evening.

"There's someone following us." Cen Xiao leaned back and reminded in a low voice.

"Just let them follow." Shen Wantang smiled indifferently.

After finding an inn to stay in, Shen Wantang seemed to be lost in thought.

"Are you really going to the county government office tomorrow?" Cen Xiao felt vaguely uneasy.

Shen Wantang nodded calmly.

But her calm appearance made Cen Xiao a little crazy.

The Zhenbei Marquis' family has been in the military all their lives and served in frontier positions. Now they are involved in the court. They really don't understand these intrigues.

"Is it fun to play guessing games?" Cen Xiao said in a low voice, sitting next to Shen Wantang. His eyes were like sharp swords, pointing straight at Shen Wantang's throat.

Shen Wantang took a sip of tea slowly.

"I am not playing dumb with you, you prince. I have my own plans. You just need to follow me."

Seeing this, Cen Xiao's brows tightened and he didn't say a word for a long time.

Even though he was very angry, he just stood up and slammed the door loudly when he left the room.

When it was late at night and everyone was asleep, the lights in Shen Wantang's room were also turned off.

The yamen runner who had been waiting downstairs for a long time finally breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his sleepy eyes: "I really don't understand, isn't it good to live in the county government? Why do you have to live in this inn! People from the capital are just pretentious!"

"Okay, stop saying these useless things. The adults asked us to keep an eye on them, so we just keep an eye on them. Who knows what tricks they will come up with next?"

The two of them slowly climbed down from the tree.

It would be too boring to just stare like this in the long night.

A yamen runner took out the leaf cards he had made and lit the candles he had prepared in advance.

"You kid, you've been ready for a long time!" His partner patted him on the shoulder. He was frowning just now, but now he was smiling happily.

At that time, he opened the window on the second floor a crack, made sure that the tail below had relaxed his vigilance, then changed into a nightgown and quietly slipped away.

It was a dark and windy night. A figure flew quietly over the roof, causing the tiles to make a crisp sound.

"Miss."

In a hidden place at the city gate, someone had been waiting for a long time.

Shen Wantang jumped down.

"Sorry for the long wait." Shen Wantang spoke slowly, and as he finished speaking, he took out a secret letter from his sleeve.

"Tell Daddy that the uprising army in Lu County has been suppressed. Don't rush ahead and rush forward. Wait until we arrive, and then we will go out together."

Shen Wantang reminded again and again.

The secret guard didn't understand and frowned slightly: "Miss, the general is not a person who is greedy for merit and reckless."

Shen Wantang naturally knew what was going on. She seemed to be thinking, "Although Daddy is not a person who seeks merit and is reckless, he is easily influenced. His subordinates are now in a hurry to make achievements. If they say a few more words, Daddy will respond."

The secret guard nodded, but there was an indescribable emotion in his eyes.

"It's getting late, go back early." Shen Wantang left a word, jumped onto the roof, and disappeared into the endless night.

Looking at the secret letter in his hand, the secret guard seemed to be thinking about something.

The next morning, Shen Wantang got up early, packed his things, and went to the county government office.

At that time, County Magistrate Jiang had been waiting for a long time. In order to prepare for today's event, he hired someone to clean the county government office inside and out overnight.

"Miss Shen, are you satisfied?" County Magistrate Jiang stepped forward and gave her a flattering smile.

Glancing around, Shen Wantang smiled calmly: "County Magistrate Jiang is doing a good job."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Wantang went to the court.

"That's not right, why is there one person missing?"
