Translator: Dragon Boat Translation  Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Because there were many people, MO Ruyue was afraid that the old village chief and Wang Tiezhu would not be able to control the situation. So, she personally came to the nursery day and called the village veterans to personally demonstrate with them to the parents and officials from other places. She also asked them to follow the steps to personally grow the seedlings.

Only by doing everything personally could one remember the specific steps more deeply.

Who would dare to disobey Princess Ming Yue?

As a result, those local magistrates who were originally very unhappy and wanted to put on airs were all as obedient as quails.

The magistrate was already so obedient, the other county magistrates didn’t even dare to let out a fart. They were doing even better than the magistrate, but they still had to take care of the magistrate’s mentality and be careful not to surpass them. If Princess Ming Yue came to watch the results later, the magistrate and the others wouldn’t have a way out. They wouldn’t have a good ending when they went back.

MO Ruyue naturally noticed the people below the stage trying to suppress their anger, but she didn’t say anything and allowed them to do as they pleased.

When MO Ruyue was done, the people below also slowed down. She went down to check the results one by one. After looking around, she returned to the original center position.

The prefect, magistrate, and other officials thought that they had all passed when they saw MO Ruyue looking around without saying anything. They were feeling pleased with themselves, but MO Ruyue pointed to the few people who were most pleased with themselves.

“You guys, give me another chance, If you still can’t learn it, change it to someone who can.’

“Also, don’t waste any of my food!”

MO Ruyue’s last sentence was very serious. It was obvious that the content of this sentence was the most important.

“Also, you said it was you.”

MO Ruyue pointed at the county magistrate with small eyes, dark skin, and a crooked hat.

“You clearly did a good job previously, but at the end, you deliberately pretended that you didn’t know how to do it. What do you mean?”

“Could it be that the people of your county have a grudge against you, and would rather they starve to death than bring this method back?”

The county magistrate knelt down and kowtowed.

“Princess, please spare my life. This humble official is stupid. Princess, please give this humble official another chance. This humble official will definitely do well this time!”

“When did I say I wanted your life?”

“Besides, what use do I have for your life?”

This kind of person didn’t want to offend his superior, but he also wanted to get things done. In the end, he couldn’t do anything well.

She had given him a warning and an opportunity, so it was up to him to decide what to do.

She couldn’t be bothered to look at this person again and pointed at another magistrate.

“If you feel that as the Prefect of a prefecture, it is beneath you to do these things, then please go back.”

“You shouldn’t have come.’

The magistrate didn’t expect that he would be involved in this matter. However, Princess Ming Yue didn’t give him any face and criticized him in front of so many people. At this moment, he was embarrassed and angry, and at the same time, he felt very aggrieved.

It was said that this Princess Ming Yue was very favored by the Emperor and generally could not be offended.

MO Ruyue didn’t give the magistrate a chance to speak at all. She pointed at a few others who didn’t seem to be sincere when they were on the stage. She didn’t like them.

“And you, you, you. To think that all of you are prefects and local officials. I don’t even understand how all of you became officials.”

When those people heard MO Ruyue’s words, they were so frightened that their foreheads were sweating and their legs were weak. Immediately, the county magistrates all knelt down, and two of the county magistrates also knelt down.

“All of you, get up. There’s no need to kneel to me.”

“I only want to ask you, are you able to become the Prefect and Magistrate because you have the citizens of a prefecture and a county under your jurisdiction?”

“If there were no civilians and only an empty city, would there be any meaning even if you were to become a first-grade official?”

“Who do you care? To become a first-grade official for the air?”

“The people are the foundation of the country, and food is the most important thing for the people. What you have to do now is to think about what to do!”

After lecturing them, MO Ruyue was too lazy to look at them anymore. She went back and asked Chun Hua to record down the names of the people she had just called out in a small notebook. These were to be handed over to Ji Hong. The places where these officials stayed would be paid special attention in the future.

After MO Ruyue left, the prefectures and county magistrate did not need anyone else to say anything. Instead, they asked the old village chief to teach them again.

The villagers were all muttering in their hearts. It turned out that these high-ranking officials were just like normal people. When they did something wrong and did not do well, they were still scolded like turtles by their princess, like a child.

With this thought in mind, everyone was no longer so afraid of these officials. They even kindly guided those who did the wrong steps. They suddenly felt that they were quite awesome. They did not expect that one day, they would be able to teach those high-ranking officials skills. It would be a very prestigious thing to do.

If there was one, there would be two. Gradually, the commoners realized this, so they fought enthusiastically to help those officials who did not know how to do it and did the wrong thing.

For a moment, the enthusiasm of the commoners made the officials feel mixed emotions.

He did not expect that he had been an official for so many years for nothing. He did not even understand such a simple truth. Fortunately, they were awakened by Princess Ming Yue in time. It was still not too late to work hard now!

The officials once again strictly followed the correct seedling procedures. After the old village chief and Wang Tiezhu helped to check the seedlings, they received a message from Chun Hua saying that the Princess wanted them to rest on their own and continue tomorrow.

When the officials heard Chun Hua’s words, it was like the students in the classroom hearing the school bell.

As for where they were staying, it was the inn in the village.

However, one of them did not want to live in that small inn with so many people, and there were other people in the inn.

“Which one is the village chief?”

When the Old Village Chief heard this, he immediately wanted to go over but was stopped by Wang Tiezhu. That person was obviously not easy to get along with. It was better for him to do it.

“Sir, I am the village chief of West River Village. May I ask what is the matter?”

When that person heard Wang Tiezhu actually call himself ‘me’, his brows furrowed. He thought that it was not appropriate for him to meddle with things now. Moreover, Princess Ming Yue was staying in the princess’ manor outside the village. Right now, he only wanted to find a good place to quickly stay and have a good sleep. Tomorrow, he still had to do that old bastard’s seedling raising, so he would not be calculative with this country bumpkin.

Because this village was small, when they first came here, Princess Ming Yue told them not to bring any manservants. Each of them could only bring one at most. He only brought one concubine. Now, he didn’t have any manservants, so he wanted Wang Tiezhu to help him run errands.

“Go outside the village and help me rent a courtyard.”

Wang Tiezhu heard this person’s arrogant tone. Was he ordering him around?

“Hehe, look at him. He even wanted him to rent a courtyard outside the village. He didn’t even see who bought that courtyard.”

“I’m sorry, sir. I can’t do this.”

“What do you mean?”

As the magistrate spoke, he took out a silver ingot worth five taels and threw it to Wang Tiezhu. He could not cause any trouble now, so he had to bear with it.

“The rest is yours.”

He thought that the five taels of silver would definitely make this noob do things for him, but he did not expect that the noob would return the silver to him.

“Milord, you’re really making things difficult for me. Those courtyards outside really can’t be rented.”

“You, a small village chief, actually want to ask for an exorbitant price. This official advise you not to refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit!”

“Who wants to punish my brother-in-law! ”

Gu Ying had just returned home from the school and heard from MO Ruyue about what had happened here, so he came over to take a look. Coincidentally, he overheard the magistrate’s words.

From afar, he could see the magistrate glaring at Wang Tiezhu impatiently. It was obvious that he was looking for trouble.

“General Xue! ”

The magistrate greeted him politely. When he heard his words, he felt a little nervous.

He really didn’t expect that this noob was actually General Xue’s brother-in-law. Was it true or false?

It didn’t look fake..
