Chapter 216 County Magistrate Lu Cunming
But when she saw the person, Yu Mengqing frowned subconsciously.
She has lived two lives and can be said to have seen countless people.
Judging from the appearance of the county magistrate who came running over, one could tell that he must be an extremely sinister and treacherous villain.
Moreover, after he came out, the nearby villagers had obviously quieted down.
Many people even showed hostile eyes.
Yu Mengqing knew without even thinking that this must be a county magistrate who had done all sorts of evil things.
With such a person as the head of a county, how can the people of Lingshi County have a good life?
He looked up at Chu Shiheng and met his unpleasant gaze.
Yu Mengqing knew that she was not the only one who had such thoughts, Chu Shiheng also had the same idea.
"Are you the county magistrate?" Xue Zhonglan asked.
When these words were spoken, Yu Mengqing was stunned.
I didn't expect that the first person to speak would be Xue Zhonglan.
She thought that Guo Peiying must be the first one to rush out and question.
It seems that Xue Zhonglan also saw something wrong with this person.
That’s right, such a chubby person has been here for more than half an hour since they appeared.
Only then did he rush over in a hurry. How could such a person be a good official?
However, just as this thought appeared in Yu Mengqing's mind, she heard Guo Peiying's angry voice.
"Looking at your sharp-nosed and monkey-faced appearance, I'm afraid you're usually very harsh on the people, right?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the villagers around them began to talk again.
But they were still afraid of the county magistrate and kept muttering to themselves.
Others couldn't hear it, but for Guo Peiying, who had practiced martial arts for many years, every word she said was heard.
Yu Mengqing also heard these words.
But she never shows her emotions. Even if she is angry, there will be no extra expression on her face.
If she remembered correctly, the county magistrate's surname was Lu and his name was Lu Cunming. He was forty-three years old this year.
Before setting out on the expedition, Yu Mengqing had already gained a clear understanding of the four cities to be captured.
She had a thorough investigation of all the county magistrates.
Whether it is the end of the world or now, what Yu Mengqing hates most is corrupt officials.
Especially the head of a county, because they directly deal with the people.
If the county magistrate is corrupt, the people under him will suffer the most.
After checking, she naturally knew that the county magistrate of Lingshi County, Lu Cunming, was the most harsh among these county magistrates.
Among these four cities, Lingshi County is also the one where the people live the most difficult lives.
In other words, under Lu Cunming's leadership, Lingshi County not only failed to develop better, but instead became the most backward county.
In fact, in terms of its location, Lingshi County can be said to be the best city among these four cities.
Lingshi County is surrounded by mountains and has the most fertile soil.
Whether it is farming or hunting, it is the best city.
But the people in this city have been living in dire straits all year round.
However, instead of trying his best to make the people's lives better, the county magistrate Lu Cunming exploited them all year round.
Just from looking at Lu Cunming's physique, one can tell that his diet shouldn't be too bad.
Looking at his fat body, how can such a person really be a concern for the people?
"You are so arrogant, sir. I have been waiting here for a long time. You just showed up now. Do you think I am not serious?"
Chu Shiheng said slowly.
Anyone can hear the sarcasm in the tone, right?
Lu Cunming was no exception to this, and he immediately knelt down in front of Chu Shiheng, explaining in a panic:
"Prince Zhan, you are wronged. Cunming had just been handling official business at the county government office. When he heard that Prince Zhan had arrived at the city gate, he rushed over without stopping. I hope Prince Zhan will investigate."
Hearing this, Chu Shiheng curled the corners of his lips and asked lightly, "What is the population of the entire Lingshi County?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Lu Cunming was dumbfounded.
He didn't expect that the War King's first words would be to ask himself this question.
He had heard before that this war king was ruthless and could not tolerate any sand in his eyes.
The reason why he came late was just to let him know.
The reason why he came so late was simply because Lingshi County had just been recaptured and he was busy with official duties and couldn't get away for the time being.
But I never thought that it would backfire.
You know, Chu Shiheng is a famous war king and a prince.
And his wife Yu Mengqing was personally appointed as a general by the emperor.
No matter who they were, the couple were not people that a small county magistrate like him could afford to offend.
How many people are there in Lingshi County? He never read any official documents, so how could he possibly know?
Not to mention a specific number, it might just be a rough number, and he might not even be able to tell it.
Yu Mengqing?
Yes, how could he forget Yu Mengqing?
Yu Mengqing is a woman, and an ugly one at that.
If it doesn't work with Chu Shiheng, it should work with Yu Mengqing, right?
Thinking of this, Lu Cunming raised his head again, trying to find out who was Princess Zhan.
Although he had never seen the Princess Zhan, he had certainly heard of her.
He knew that Princess Zhan had a yin-yang face and was an extremely ugly woman.
He should be able to tell a woman like this apart even if he just glanced at her, let alone standing in front of her, right?
Moreover, women are always soft-hearted and easily deceived.
As long as he said a few words, she would be completely captivated by him.
You know, although Lu Cunming is forty-three years old.
But in the whole Lingshi County, he is also one of the most handsome men.
Thinking of this, Lu Cunming bravely raised his head and looked around for the woman with the yin-yang face.
I looked around but didn't see any with a yin-yang face, and I couldn't help but feel anxious.
Could it be that General Yu didn’t come today?
It's just impossible. As a general, she shouldn't be absent from such a grand occasion.
"What? Are you looking for me?" Yu Mengqing asked sarcastically.
Judging from the expression on Lu Cunming's face, anyone who is not blind should be able to tell what he is thinking.
What’s more, Yu Mengqing is a senior agent who has lived two lives.
You know, in the end times, not everyone can become an agent, and they must be trained in all aspects.
And this mind reading and micro-expression is one of the important courses they need to learn.
Seeing the intention written on Lu Cunming's face at this moment, if Yu Mengqing still couldn't see it, she would be unworthy of being a human being.
Very good, I didn't expect that at this time, there are still people who think she is an extremely easy-going person.
It seems that being a woman does have some advantages.
After hearing Yu Mengqing's words, Lu Cunming turned his attention to Yu Mengqing.
She had a scarf tied around her face, but her big eyes that were exposed were extremely beautiful.
This made Lu Cunming wonder whether she was General Yu.
"Why, aren't you looking for me?" Seeing that he didn't speak, Yu Mengqing asked again.
