Gu Heng traveled through the late Ming Dynasty and became the new county magistrate of Wuyuan County, Guangxi.
Everyone said that Wuyuan County was a place of death.
There are chieftains outside the city, corrupt officials in the county, granaries running low, and fields in chaos.
Before he could secure his seat in the county government, someone wearing sackcloth and mourning carried a coffin to block the door, trying to give him authority as the new county magistrate.
The squire did not dare to speak, and the common people did not dare to complain.
Everyone thought that the new county magistrate would either bow his head or die.
But on the first day he took office, Gu Heng overturned the table.
From that day on, Wuyuan County changed.
Check the granary, clear the fields, practice rural bravery, and break the deadlock.
He originally just wanted to save the people of this county.
But later, bandits broke out everywhere, the mountains and rivers were broken, and the Manchu and Qing cavalry went south.
Gu Heng discovered that if one county can be saved, the whole world may not be unable to be saved.
