I Became the Prime Minister’s Adored Wife after Transmigrating

The locusts all over the sky rushed toward us.

Where the locusts pass, not a blade of grass grows.

All the crops in the fields of Shanghe Village were wiped out.

The villagers knelt on the barren field ridge, weeping and crying bitterly.

The villages around Dingyuan County were more seriously affected by the disaster.

The county magistrate Ji Ting'an was so busy that the people affected by the disaster poured into the county town, and spontaneously knelt outside the gate of the county government office, begging the government to open a warehouse to release grain.

But that night, the county government's granary caught fire, and all the food was burned to ashes.

What is even more frightening is that Ji Tingan, the county magistrate, has disappeared.

Dingyuan County, without a leader, seems to have become a purgatory on earth——

Looking at the scenes that happened in the dream, Ji Zhao hid his face sadly and kept crying——

"Zhao Zhao?" At dawn, Shen Yao noticed the movement of the person next to his pillow, and opened his eyes nervously, and hurriedly called out, "Zhao Zhao? What's wrong?"

Ji Zhao, who was still asleep, was crying very sadly.

The palm-sized face was wrinkled into a ball in sadness, and the teardrops covered the whole face.

"Zhao Zhao?"

Shen Yao eagerly called out several times before waking up the heartbroken Ji Zhao who was crying.

"Shen Yao, woo woo woo..."

After waking up, Ji Zhao threw himself into his arms sadly, wrapped his arms around his neck, and sobbed sadly.

Shen Yao quickly stretched out his hand and patted her on the back lightly, comforting her silently.

After a long time, Ji Zhao gradually regained his composure.

Wiping the wet tears on her cheeks with distress, Shen Yao asked softly, "What's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"

"Worse than a nightmare." Ji Zhao sniffled, tears filled his eyelashes, and his tone was full of worry, "Shen Yao, the plague of locusts is really terrible!"

"Did you dream?"

Shen Yao was also a little surprised, although he already knew that A Tao had an unknown early warning ability, and her dreams would be related to the people around her, this time, could it be God's warning?

"Shen Yao," Ji Zhao tugged at his sleeve, and said with firm eyes, "I want to see Mr. Ji."

"Master Ji?" Shen Yao frowned in doubt.

"The locust plague is really terrible. If Mr. Ji can let everyone take precautions in advance, maybe there will be some effect? ​​After all, Mr. Ji is also the parent officer of our Dingyuan County!" Ji Zhao explained seriously, "So I think we are very It is necessary to tell Mr. Ji about this matter."

"But A Tao, Mr. Ji may not believe us." Shen Yao said with some worry, "After all, the locust plague has not happened yet, and everyone still has a little expectation in their hearts."

Although it has been drought for so long, the hard-working villagers still hope that God will open his eyes and rain down soon.

"He will believe it." Ji Zhao said with a firm expression.

There was an intuition in her heart, she felt that Ji Tingan would definitely believe her.

"Okay." After some weighing, Shen Yao nodded and agreed, "After breakfast, I will accompany you to the county seat."

At the beginning of Chen Shi, the Shen family members were all sitting at the dining table in the main room, enjoying a delicious breakfast.

The sharp-eyed Zhao Lanhua saw the tears on Ji Zhao's face, and hurriedly asked, "A Tao, are you crying? Did the third child bully you?"

"No, no." Ji Zhao, who was eating Xiaolongbao, quickly waved his hands, "Mother, I didn't cry."

"You brat, it's good for you to marry a daughter-in-law home to spoil her, but you're bullying your daughter-in-law like this?"

Zhao Lanhua glared at Shen Yao angrily, and scolded angrily.

"Mom, it's really not like this..."

"I'm going to accompany A Tao to the county seat in a while." Shen Yao smiled nonchalantly, "Mother, eat slowly."

Before Zhao Lanhua could respond, Shen Yao took Ji Zhao's hand and left the Shen family compound.

Ji Zhao felt a little guilty, she shook Shen Yao's arm, her eyes were puzzled, "Mother misunderstood just now, why didn't you explain?"

Shen Yao raised his hand and rubbed her cheeks, then explained softly, "Mother and Second Sister-in-Law always like to read some scriptures in their spare time, if I explain, she will think more~"

Ji Zhao, who half understood, nodded his head in a daze.

Dingyuan County, county government.

Ji Tingan's brows have never been relaxed since he went to see the grain stored in the official warehouse in person yesterday.

After some inspection, he found that the amount of grain stored in the ledger was very different from the actual amount in the granary.

This also means that some people secretly resell official food to fill their own pockets.

In addition, the drought in Dingyuan County has been very serious in recent years, but the county government has never opened the granary.

"grown ups?"

"What is it?"

"Shen Yao and his wife ask to see you."

Half an hour later, Ji Tingan frowned, and there was a bit of gloomy light in Ji Zhao's eyes.

"You mean to ask me to open the granary in advance?" Ji Tingan lowered his head and played with the jade pendant on his waist, his tone was a little more unpredictable. He was just about to find out who in the county government office were stinky rats who stole official food, and she came to propose to open a warehouse to release food?

"Yes." Ji Zhao said neither humble nor overbearing, "Last summer, many fields around Dingyuan County were dry and cracked, and some villages even sold children and daughters, but the previous county magistrate, Mrs. Ma, was a You are blind, and you have never understood the sufferings of the people at all; but Mr. Ji, you are different. You sincerely want to benefit the people, otherwise you would not make drastic reforms and ban those places of fireworks and willow alleys, so We, husband and wife, mustered up the courage to come forward to speak out."

"It takes the right time to open the warehouse and release the grain." Seeing her earnest expression, Ji Tingan's doubts were dispelled by two points. Maybe this is really a coincidence?

"There has been no rain in Dingyuan County for nearly two months."

"But didn't the end of June last year usher in a rain? Maybe this year will be the same as last year?" Ji Tingan asked without thinking.

"My lord's words are wrong. No one can guarantee that this year's weather will be exactly the same as in previous years." Shen Yao handed over the "Da Jing Zhi" he brought, and explained softly, "My lord may as well take a look at the details in this book. According to records, if there is a continuous drought for more than two months in midsummer, it will lead to another more terrible disaster."

"Locust plague?" Ji Tingan immediately understood what Shen Yao meant, and raised his head in surprise.

"Yes, locust plague." Shen Yao nodded seriously, "Once the locusts pass through, the crops in the field will be completely destroyed."

Ji Tingan narrowed his eyes slightly, with complicated emotions in his eyes.

"If it's true as you said, then I should think of a way to prevent this locust plague." Ji Tingan thought for a while, and then called again, "Come here, please go and invite Qin Minghong."

"I heard that your husband and wife have some affection for Qin Minghong?"

"Yes." Ji Zhao nodded calmly, "Returning to your lord, we have business contacts with Brother Qin."

"So, very good." Ji Tingan suddenly raised his lips and nodded with a smile.

For some reason, Ji Zhao read a hint of insidiousness from the smile on his face?
