You Were Made County Magistrate, So Why Did You Topple the Turks' Stronghold?

Yang Yun transmigrates to the Tang Dynasty, intending to live a quiet, uneventful life. But unexpectedly, Li Shimin discovers his talents and repeatedly urges him to enter the imperial court as an official.

Yang Yun refuses time and time again. Unable to persuade him, Li Shimin temporarily appoints him as a low-ranking county magistrate in the remote region of Youzhou, so Yang Yun will remain within his sight.

Three years later, Li Shimin, still determined, plans to invite Yang Yun to Chang'an once more to serve as an official. But when he arrives in Youzhou, he discovers that the place has undergone a complete transformation.

"The people only pay half their taxes? Then how will you have any grain left to give the court?"

"What? Three thousand jin per mu? What kind of divine crop produces that much?"

"You mean the population here has multiplied tenfold in three years? And there are over ten thousand Turkic people, too?"

"..."

Hearing one shocking report after another, Li Shimin is dumbfounded.

Looking at the tens of thousands of Turkic people in the city, Li Shimin stammers,

"I made you a county magistrate, and you took down the Turks' stronghold?"
