Chapter 406 Are you stupid? Still blind?

The accompanying master saw that Magistrate Li was in a very bad mood by this Princess Lao Shizi, with a bad look on his face, he nodded and persuaded: "Sir, don't be angry, don't be angry, there are still three fires when the new official takes office, let alone the first time. The princess who goes out to do errands? After this period of time has passed, her excitement is gone, and naturally it will not be difficult for you."

   "Haha..." Li County magistrate sneered again and again, "...she has to take out her account book, how can it be regarded as a moment of excitement?"

   Mastering the account books of Yuyang County means that you have mastered the specific financial expenditures of Yuyang County and tightly grasped the finances of Yuyang County. At the same time, he also stepped on a mere magistrate of Li.

   Li County magistrate's lifeline is about to be seized, and it's no wonder that he can be happy.

  Li county magistrate has been exhaling in anger.

"After all, the princess came here this time with a bunch of people watching from behind. She doesn't urge you to bring this account book, and she can't explain it." The master said: "Don't be too angry, sir, as long as you get through these days, Even if the disaster is over..."

   "Then you say, will the account book be given to him?"

   "Of course not." The master made a gesture of wiping his neck, "No matter what, the account book cannot be given to the princess, otherwise, our little lives will be..."

   Next, there is no need for Master to finish, and Magistrate Li can understand.

   The accounts on the account book, do not say the fake, a lot of expenditures do not match the number, to put it bluntly, it is a messy and bad account book.

   When others get it, they can see the problem at a glance.

   Really can't be seen, otherwise they will die.

"Then I won't show her the account books for now." Li county magistrate stroked his beard and said: "As for the account books, this official will make a sloppy look and fool the past. In the past few days, we will take her to see the river first. Turn around where the dam was built."

   "The adults said yes."

  …

   After Jun Ning settled down, she and Jing Shu had a hot meal and hot dishes.

  After eating and going to bed, Jingshu should have gone back to her own place. The house they live in is big enough, and Jingshu has her own room.

   But Jingshu was frightened by the old and weak women and children in Yuyang County, for fear that some people would push the door and climb the window in the middle of the night and hurt her.

   She hugged the quilt and insisted on sleeping with Jun Ning.

   Jun Ning saw her pitiful appearance and could only agree.

  Jingshu This girl sleeps very dishonestly. She either kicks someone suddenly, or slaps her hand on the head suddenly, which is startling. Also, she frequently talks in her sleep.

   Jun Ning slept with her all night and was woken up several times in the middle.

   After waking up the next day, Jun Ning rubbed her sore temple, her face a little worse.

   "Auntie, I'm sorry..." Jing Shu also knew that she was sleeping differently, "I'll have someone get a new bed tomorrow, so we can sleep separately, as long as we stay in the same room."

   Jun Ning nodded, "Okay."

   After breakfast, Jun Ning rubbed her groggy head and waited to read the ledger. However, Magistrate Li did not send the account book for a long time. Jun Ning couldn't wait any longer, so she asked Chao Jiu to urge him.

  This account book, she must see it today.

  Chao Jiu went out not long before he came back with a panicked face.

   "Princess, princess, it's not good..."

   Jun Ning looked at Chao Jiu, sweating profusely and her breathing was short. She poured a cup of tea and handed it to Chao Jiu: "What's wrong, don't worry? Take a sip of tea and speak slowly."

Chao Jiuyi drank the tea that Jun Ning handed over and said, "It's because the water level of the Yujiang River suddenly started to rise, and the crops can be harvested in a month. Li County magistrate is afraid that the crops will be flooded. Look over there."

   "What?" After Jun Ning heard this, she stood up nervously.

   But after a while, reason suppressed her emotions, and she returned to normal.

   She sat back on the Taishi chair and calmly poured three cups of tea, one for Jing Shu, one for Chao Jiu, and one for herself.

After dividing the tea, she held her cup of tea in her hand, and said leisurely, "We have not seen a drop of rain or a gust of wind on our way to Yuyang County. Why did the water level of the Yujiang River suddenly rise? What a joke!"

  Under normal circumstances, only when it rains, strong winds, or flood discharge, the water in the river increases and the water level is unstable, will it continue to rise.

   Now that the water level is rising inexplicably, it is obviously a pretext that Li County magistrate came up with temporarily in order to prevent Jun Ning from checking the account books.

  Presumably at this moment, he was waiting for Jun Ning to take the bait.

  Jun Ning said: "Li County magistrate really caught a good fish!"

  Chao Jiu looked at Jun Ning in surprise.

   He thought that Jun Ning hadn't read any books in these years, and he was a ghost all day, so he must have no ink in his stomach. But I didn't expect that at this moment, she would be calm and self-contained, analyze the situation in an orderly manner, and even think of things he hadn't thought of, which is really surprising.

   Sure enough, the princess is the princess, and she is more powerful than the average person all day long.

   "Then, Your Highness, Princess, can we take the bait?" Chao Jiu put his hands together and looked at Jun Ning, his attitude towards Jun Ning was suddenly much more respectful than before.

  Jun Ning glanced at Chao Jiu and saw the changes in Chao Jiu, "Of course you have to be hooked! If you don't take the bait, how can you expose his conspiracy and tricks? Come on, let's go and see."

   Jun Ning and Jing Shu took a girl and three guards to the Yujiang River Dam.

   Li County Magistrate knelt on the river dam and looked at the water level, which did not rise at all and had no upward trend. He wept bitterly and murmured something.

   Jun Ning is too far away, some cannot hear.

   All you can see is Magistrate Li, like a frog, kneeling and kowtowing all the time. The Taishi behind him, the Master Bo, followed his movements and knelt down together.

   looks very exaggerated.

  Jun Ning is wearing a strong suit today, without a skirt, and walking is also very convenient and fast.

At this moment, she walked behind the magistrate Li in a few steps, wrapped her arms around her chest, looked at magistrate Li's pout, and said, "Yo, magistrate Li, what are you doing? ?"

   County magistrate Li wiped the nonexistent tears from his eyes with his sleeve, "The water level of the Yujiang River is rising, and the disaster is coming again. I am worried about the food grown for the people!"

   "Really?" Jun Ning's face was flat, "If you don't explain, this princess thinks your brain is flooded, so she came here to bow down for no reason."

   County magistrate Li was so angry at this. He was about to accuse Jun Ning of how he could not care about the rations of the people, and he had a high-profile attitude that it had nothing to do with himself, but Jun Ning was the first to speak and interrupted him.

   "The imperial capital also has a moat. This princess still knows exactly what the river looks like when it rises."

   "And this Yujiang River, the river's water flow is gentle, and the water level is not much different from usual. This princess really doesn't know, where is the water level rising?"

   "Magistrate Li spread rumors like this inexplicably. Is it stupid? Or blind?"
