Han Lei adjusted the conspicuous sportswear she was wearing, which stood out in this era, and walked forward slowly, bowing gracefully.
"This humble woman, Han Lei, greets Lord County Magistrate."
Her voice was clear and pleasant, her demeanor poised and elegant, forming a stark contrast with the ragged refugees around her.
The County Magistrate couldn't help but squint his eyes, examining this strangely dressed yet remarkably composed young woman up and down.
"Who are you? Did you bring all these... people?" The County Magistrate pointed to the dense crowd, unconsciously lowering his voice a bit.
Han Lei smiled faintly, her smile sweet and genial.
"In reply to the lord, these are poor people from Jingzhou who lost their homes due to the heavy rains. This humble woman, entrusted by the Canzhou government, is leading them to open land for farming, passing through your county, merely seeking shelter for one night."
