The whole village is fleeing famine, fortunately I have a concubine system

Therefore, after learning that someone was coming to succeed him, County Magistrate Chen began to collect good things everywhere.

I thought that although I had stepped down, I had more friends and more paths to explore.

I will have to live in Wudu in the future, so having a good relationship with the county magistrate will only benefit me and not harm me.

In the future, my children and grandchildren can still count on the new county magistrate for guidance when they take the imperial examinations.

Due to the fanfare that County Magistrate Chen had made, everyone in the yamen, regardless of their rank or rank, knew that the new county magistrate would take over.

The guards hurried down the wall, but still did not open the door.

He said to Wang Chengzi through the city gate: "You said you are the new county magistrate. How can you prove it?"

Wang Chengzi opened his appointment letter, but the city gate was too thick and it was still dark so the guards could not see clearly.

The guards were in a dilemma and didn't know what to do.

On the one hand, he was afraid that it was a thief who was deceiving people, so he waited for him to open the city gate.

The thieves lying in ambush behind would rush into the city of Wu and rob the people in the city.

After all, just now at the city gate, the guard vaguely saw that the people below seemed a little embarrassed.

Even his hair was messy, he really didn't look like a newly appointed county magistrate.

On the other hand, he was afraid that the person standing under the city gate was the real county magistrate, and that he had delayed opening the city gate for him, and that the new county magistrate would hold a grudge and take revenge on him after taking office.

When the guard was in trouble, Wang Chengzi said to him:

"How about this, you go find the current county magistrate and tell him that I am here.

I will prove my identity when the time comes."

The guard thought about it and realized that it was true.

And this way you don't have to take any responsibility.

I sighed that if the person outside is the real county magistrate, then this new county magistrate is much better than the Chen county magistrate.

Thinking about it, he said to Wang Chengzi, "Please wait a moment, sir. I will go find County Magistrate Chen right away."

After saying that, he ran all the way into the yamen and found the housekeeper to explain what had happened.

After hearing this, Steward Chen did not hesitate and stood outside the door of County Magistrate Chen and called softly:

"Sir, it seems the new county magistrate has arrived and is currently outside the city gate."

After saying that, he stood at the door and waited for a while, listening carefully to the movements in the room.

Hearing no sound from the house, he called out twice more.

At the same time, he knocked on the door gently a few times. The sound was not too loud so as not to suddenly wake Magistrate Chen.

But I could hear noises outside.

At this time, County Magistrate Chen was lying on the bed, holding his favorite concubine Lan in his arms.

There were a few pieces of clothing scattered on and under the bed, and it was obvious that someone had been having a fuss at night.

No wonder County Magistrate Chen didn't wake up after being called several times today and was still snoring.

It was not until the knock on the door by Butler Chen that County Magistrate Chen was awakened and the snoring stopped instantly.

County Magistrate Chen was startled when he vaguely heard Butler Chen talking about the new county magistrate.

I quickly asked, "What's the matter?"

Butler Chen repeated it again in a low voice, and then the anxious voice of County Magistrate Chen was heard.

"Quick, prepare water.

I will go and greet the new county magistrate in person."

Butler Chen waved to the maids who were carrying basins of water and toothbrushes behind him.

The maids pushed open the door of the room and walked in with their heads lowered.

Helping County Magistrate Chen to wash up.

Butler Chen was assigned to quickly call people to go to the city gate to welcome the new county magistrate.

County Magistrate Chen was a little puzzled as he didn't know why Wang Chengzi chose to come here at this time.

However, he quickly tidied himself up and then rode in a carriage to the city gate.

He hurried to the city gate and gave instructions to the bailiffs before getting off the carriage.
