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

Chapter 17 I’m afraid I’m not an ordinary person
"Back to the young master, the late Zhou Emperor suddenly passed away. Because he had not yet established a prince, the internal competition within the royal family became fierce, and many princes were in trouble because of this..."

"Finally, the Ninth Princess Jiang Linglong pretended to be a man. She claimed to be a prince who had not yet been canonized. She defeated many princes and won the throne. Jiang Linglong took the throne less than a year ago. Because she refused to compromise with the treacherous minister Su Quan, Su Quan Quan Bian ordered her to be eliminated, but she has escaped from the imperial city, been taken in by the second lady, and is now a guest in Cangyun County."

"Now His Majesty the Great Zhou Dynasty is a stand-in puppet. In fact, the Great Zhou Dynasty has been completely controlled by Su Quan."

"But with the restraints of the kings, this thief dare not force the Zen position and try to destroy the kings."

After listening to Gu Changfeng's report, Lu Yuan's narrow and deep eyes narrowed slightly. The late emperor died suddenly?
When he first came to this world, after learning that this world was a martial arts world where he could practice martial arts, he had the intention to practice martial arts.

He came from a mountain village and his parents died. It was not easy to learn martial arts. He traveled tens of thousands of miles through mountains and rivers before he found a martial arts sect.

However, due to his mediocre martial arts talent, he was directly rejected.

In desperation, he thought of joining the imperial court and studying hard to gain fame.

Relying on the advantage of his past life memory and the ability to remember things after time travel, he was able to pass the Qingyun Trial and participate in the palace examination with his excellent literary test.

I wanted to assist the late emperor, put forward some suggestions that were very beneficial to the government, gained his appreciation, and obtained resources for martial arts training, but I never thought that the emperor was fatuous and his traitorous officials formed a clique. make.

If the system had not been activated, he would have been eaten by the local bandit family when he came here.

Lu Yuan didn't have the slightest fondness for the late emperor.

Unexpectedly, the late emperor passed away in just 20 years...

This is really unexpected.

In his impression, although the late emperor was a bit mediocre, his strength was not ordinary. He was also a great master, otherwise he would not have been able to suppress the Jianghu court for so long.

"I remember he was only 80 years old. How could he pass away suddenly?"

Lu Yuan didn't quite understand and asked: "Is the news true? Why did it crash?"

"It's true. It has been confirmed many times by insiders. It is said that the late emperor wanted to destroy the Jianghu forces at that time and secretly had a fight with the heads of the five major sects in the world. One against five, he was seriously injured. After returning to the capital, he could not leave. Within a month, he was declared dead..."

Gu Changfeng talked about all the information he had obtained.

"Um……"

Lu Yuan pondered for a while. The strength of the leaders of the five major sects should not be underestimated, and their background was extremely profound. This makes sense, but the late emperor was too impatient...

But when you think about this man being a fool, it's not surprising.

Didn't dwell on the matter.

Lu Yuan's current strength is no longer comparable to that of the past. Not to mention the former emperor, even if the heads of the five major sects join forces, they may not be his opponent.

In the past 20 years, he has received many rewards for signing in. His cultivation level is at least 500 years old. If it were not for the limitations of martial arts in this world, he would have already broken through to a higher realm.

"Jiang Linglong..."

Lu Yuan murmured.

He knew very well that it was not an easy task to stand out from the many princes and princesses and win the throne.

This Jiang Linglong is quite something.

"The reason why she came to Cangyun County is that she has something to do with the Luck Golden Dragon. Being able to win the throne and ascend to the throne is not something ordinary people can do."

"Who is her mother? Has it been investigated?"

Lu Yuan couldn't help but ask one more question.

"Sir, this is Concubine Ji."

"Concubine Ji, Ji Xinyue?"

Lu Yuan raised his eyes slightly, and Gu Jing Wubo's eyes fluctuated for the first time.

"Exactly." Gu Changfeng nodded.

Lu Yuan was silent for a while, without speaking, as if he was stuck in extremely long memories.

Ji Xinyue is about the same age as him and is from the same hometown as Lu Yuan.

Ji Xinyue is the daughter of the local Ji family and is stunningly beautiful.

At that time, Lu Yuan was just 15 years old, working for a wealthy family in the county and studying at the same time.

By chance, Ji Xinyue bought Lu Yuan's inscription. She was so shocked that she contacted Lu Yuan.

After learning that Lu Yuan was going to participate in the Qingyun Trial, he offered to spend money to buy more of Lu Yuan's paintings and calligraphy.

In fact, Lu Yuan knew that Ji Xinyue wanted to find an excuse to show off his ambitions.

And this was the beginning of the turning point in Lu Yuan's life.

If it weren't for Ji Xinyue back then, there would be no Lu Yuan in high school later.

In Lu Yuan's heart at that time, this Ji Xinyue was simply sent by God to save him.

When he was young, he inevitably fell in love with this beautiful woman.

He could feel that Ji Xinyue also had a crush on him, and had hinted many times that she wanted Lu Yuan to propose marriage.

But Lu Yuan knew that in this world, a well-matched person was important. How could he, a first-class commoner, have the dignity to propose marriage?
How could the Ji family like him, a poor and useless guy?

Will not agree at all.

The Qingyun Trial is his only chance to turn around.

At that time, he secretly swore in his heart that he would pass the Qingyun Trial, and when he was named on the gold list, he would return to his hometown and propose marriage in a legitimate manner.

However, when Lu Yuan went to Beijing to rush to the Qingyun trial, and through his own efforts step by step, when he reached the palace trial, he saw the figure that haunted him...

She has become a noble concubine beneath one person and above ten thousand people...

At that time, this result was a bit unacceptable to Lu Yuan.

Fortunately, he had a very human nature, and it took him a long, long time before he gradually forgot about the incident and buried that love in his heart, which became an eternal regret in his heart.

Concubine Ji was still very kind to him and gave him a lot of help. When he first entered the court, he was involved in party struggles. In several critical moments, Ji Xinyue took action and secretly saved him.

Lu Yuan almost forgot about this incident many years ago. He suddenly remembered it when he heard this familiar name.

In 20 years, things have already changed.

"Is Jiang Linglong her daughter? She has already ascended the throne..."

Lu Yuan couldn't help feeling a little emotional, but had no other emotions.

If I had to say something, it would be gratitude.Without Ji Xinyue, it would have been impossible for him to survive until now.

Therefore, Lu Yuan cared a little more about Ji Xinyue's daughter.

"That's good. With the help of Jiang Linglong's status as His Majesty, I can be considered legitimate, and the reputation I can gain will only be higher."

Lu Yuan took the teacup handed to him by the middle-aged scholar and took a sip.

He now wants to upgrade his domain level, which requires a lot of reputation.

The source of reputation is very simple, nothing more than fame.

The more people know about it, the more famous it is, and the more prestige it has.

Of course, this reputation must be positive.

Negative ones also have prestige, but they increase very little.

When he first came to Cangyun County, he defeated the mountain bandits and horse thieves, wiped out the aristocratic families, and developed the place, which raised his reputation to what it is now in a short period of time.

Popular support is closely related to reputation.

"Sir, the affairs of the other three ladies have been investigated clearly. The person who participated in the siege and murder of the third princess was the envoy of Prince Liang." Gu Changfeng said.

"Prince Liang..."

Lu Yuan's eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a dangerous aura, which made Gu Changfeng on the side feel that the temperature of the entire room had dropped a lot.

This was the first time Gu Changfeng saw Lu Yuan like this, and his heart condensed slightly.

"Well, now that the time is ripe, it's time to settle some accounts, including capital and profits!"

Lu Yuan muttered to himself, his tone cold.

When he was demoted to this position, apart from the late emperor's stupidity, the biggest reason was because he offended the then Prime Minister Su Quan.

Just because he didn't want to join in the treacherous ministers, he was put in the shoes.

In order to please Su Quan, many ministers not only demoted him to this place, cut off all his salary support, but even sent people to kill him.

Fortunately, his system was awakened at that time, and with the help of Concubine Ji, he escaped.

When he didn't have the strength, Lu Yuan never acted rashly and kept this matter in his heart silently.

Now, it's time for reckoning. Anyone who has been detrimental to him and the people around him will pay the price.

"Sir, there is one more thing. The world has been in chaos recently, and many people have set their sights on Cangyun County. I am afraid that this place will probably be exposed."

"Young master means..."

Gu Changfeng said again.

"It doesn't matter, it's been almost 20 years. I believe you people are tired of such boring days and can't wait to go out and show your ambitions. Take this opportunity to go out and have a look too!"

Lu Yuan said casually.

"Yes, son!"

Gu Changfeng looked happy and quickly raised his hand, "Sir, how should we deal with those who trespass here? Should we kill them directly, or..."

"No need, keep it for now, let them go back and report the news, and send people out to spread the news that the new emperor of Zhou Dynasty is here." Lu Yuan shook his head.

"Ah? Master, this is..."

Gu Changfeng was puzzled.

"Yes, just as you think, as the magistrate of Dazhou County, now that Dazhou has been overthrown, I naturally cannot sit back and watch and save the people of the world from the fire and water. This is what I and other men do."

Lu Yuan said righteously.

"Ah, sir, shouldn't we...with our current strength..."

Gu Changfeng was a little surprised.

Lu Yuan shook his head, "Changfeng, as long as the people live well, it doesn't matter who is in the hands of the country. Just open up your horizons."

When the people live well, he will have more reputation!
What an emperor, what a country, nothing compared to longevity.

Of course, this requires doing these things in His name.

Gu Changfeng felt a little ashamed of himself and lowered his head in shame, "It's Changfeng who is stupid. It's a great blessing to have a great person in the world!"

Lu Yuan smiled slightly, stood up and left.

However, he did not go to Jiang Linglong, but to his wives.

I have been in seclusion for half a year, and I am really exhausted. I need to go and get rid of the fire first.

The county government office occupies a vast area, and there is an extremely large villa behind the Star Observation Tower.

This place is unique to Lu Yuan. No one is allowed to approach it except Lu Yuan, a few wives and maids.

The villa is built on the mountainside, with natural lakes and mountains, beautiful mountains and waters, and pleasant scenery.

On the pavilion in the middle of the lake in the garden, there were several young women sitting in the pavilion, smiling sweetly.

In front of them, there were palm-sized playing cards made of jade blocks. The four women sat around and played cards, enjoying themselves.

On the blue waves, a boat was moving slowly, with a pretty figure standing on the bow, fishing with her eyes closed.

On an arch bridge, a woman wearing a sky-blue gauze skirt stood on it. In the water in front of her, many koi fish gathered to swim first. She smiled slightly, grabbed a handful of fish food and dropped it.

All the girls have good looks and picturesque facial features, no worse than Ning Youruo. Each has its own merits and charm.

Likewise, their identities are not simple.

There are many leaders of the Demon Sect, saints from the Sword Sect, daughters of aristocratic families, and even beauties from foreign lands...

They were originally incompatible with each other, but at this moment, they seemed more harmonious than ever before, as if everything in the outside world had nothing to do with them.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed in the distance...

The girls were suddenly alert, looked into the distance, and shouted.

"Who!"
