Great Lawyer

Chapter 764 Paradise ([-])

Guilin prefecture governs two prefectures and seven counties.

Du Jiuyan looked up at the majestic city gate, feeling that he was ignorant for a while.

For Guangxi, she marked Lingnan in her memory, and most of the prisoners from the court and the Central Committee came to Lingnan.

But from the Zhenyuan Mansion to the territory of Guangxi, what she saw and heard along the way opened her eyes.

"Brothers!" Gu Qingshan stood on the ground floor of the tower, yelled at the top, and said: "The prince is back!"

With a swipe, countless heads popped out of the originally quiet city wall, crowds of people looked down at the city.

"It's the prince, and General Gu and the others."

Upstairs cheered, and everyone shouted: "It's the prince, the prince is back."

"My lord is back!"

In an instant, in addition to the officers and soldiers on the tower, there were also the people in the city. Those who heard it rushed to the gate of the city and looked in this direction.

"My lord, it's really my lord!"

"Only our prince is so exquisite and beautiful."

"Kowtow to the prince!"

Someone shouted.

Up and down the city gate, everyone knelt down in unison and shouted in unison: "Greetings to the prince, the prince is a thousand years old!"

Du Jiuyan, Lu Nianzong and his party were stunned and admired.

"I didn't expect the prince to have so many people he loves." Lu Nianzong said in a low voice.

Du Jiuyan hissed, and said, "This is his territory, let's be careful what we say."

"Understood." Lu Nianzong covered his mouth, turned around and mysteriously explained to Qian Daoan and the others, "Be careful, don't offend the prince, or you will be silenced."

As he spoke, he gestured to cut his neck.

Everyone was so scared that they went to see King Gui cautiously.

"This is Lord Gui's territory." As soon as Dou Rongxing finished speaking, he saw that Du Jiuyan had dismounted, and he also got out of the carriage.

Du Jiuyan led the horse to King Gui, with a fawning expression on his face, he said, "My lord, sit still, and the villain will lead the horse for you."

"Ahem..." King Gui looked down at her condescendingly, "Ma'am, are you scared now?"

Du Jiuyan nodded repeatedly, pointed to the kneeling people inside, and said: "These are all your people, I dare not be afraid. There are so many people, even stomping my feet can make me fall to the ground. "

"You are wise." King Gui pointed at Du Jiuyan and smiled, waving his hands imposingly, and said, "Go to the city!"

Inside the city gate, everyone greeted them and shouted in unison: "Welcome to the prince!"

King Gui rode a tall horse, Du Jiuyan led the horse for him, and entered the city one after the other.

"Get up, when did this king ask you to kneel down and worship, what should you do?" King Gui waved his hand.

Everyone should get up.

"My lord, you haven't been back for two years. Do you want to stay longer this time or come back for business?" someone asked.

King Gui said: "Passing by to see you, I will leave in a few days."

"all good?"

"Okay, everything is fine." Everyone said.

"My lord, did you come back alone? Didn't the concubine come back with you?" Someone asked.

There are women in this line, but they are all walking with King Gui's horse. If there is Princess Gui among them, they must go hand in hand with King Gui and enter the city together.

King Gui proudly said: "Here we come!"

Talking about going to see Du Jiuyan.

Du Jiuyan coughed, King Gui stared at her blankly, Du Jiuyan said in a low voice: "My lord, I am visiting in private, please don't reveal my whereabouts."

"Your WeChat private visit?"

Du Jiuyan nodded and said: "After all, my reputation is louder than yours. I'm afraid that if I report to my family, it will kill your prestige."

"That's right," King Gui nodded his head and said, "Madam, I'm very pleased."

After King Gui finished speaking, Du Jiuyan glanced at him meaningfully. He said badly to himself, and slid down from his horse, not daring to sit any longer.

"Busy all of you and go, the king is back to deal with private matters."

Everyone should be, and they did not give up on Su Ningyue and the women, and after confirming that they were not, they left.

No one paid attention to Du Jiuyan who was pretending to be a servant leading a horse.

"I was wrong." King Gui posted it up, finished speaking quickly, and walked with his head held high and chest out with a smile on his face.

Du Jiuyan said: "My lord, the villain is voluntary."

"No, no." King Gui didn't look sideways, his expression was majestic, but his tone was completely opposite, "It's two different things for Madam to voluntarily climb up the pole with me."

"I was wrong. Please forgive me, madam."

Du Jiuyan waved his hands, and said in a very sincere tone, "My lord, the villain is really willing to hold you, and the villain is also happy."

"Really?" King Gui asked.

Du Jiuyan glanced at him and was about to speak when King Gui grabbed her hand and said, "I was wrong, really wrong."

Du Jiuyan burst out laughing.

"What kind of virtue, how vigorous was it when you first entered the city?"

King Gui touched his nose and said, "With you, I just need to be strong on the bed."

Du Jiuyan ignored him and looked around at the stores on both sides of the street.

The store is no different from the capital city, but it is better than the capital city. It is very clean and tidy. Even the flags and signs hanging on the shops are clean, new and tidy.

The most interesting thing is that the bluestone slabs on the floor have two colors.There are four parallel carriages in the middle, and the stone slabs on both sides are much darker, and they are pedestrians.

Therefore, even if there is an endless stream of horse-drawn carriages on the market, and pedestrians go into shops or stroll in leisure, there will be no traffic jams or collisions between people and vehicles.

The traffic is busy but orderly.

"It's very interesting," Zhou Xiao said, shaking his fan, "I walked all the way, but I didn't even see a wandering beggar or refugee."

Song Jiyi stammered: "Could it be, was, killed, killed?"

In order to prove that he is very popular here, Qiao Mo has already collected several bouquets of flowers from the little girl along the way, holding them in his hands and showing them to Zheng Yuqin happily.

Zheng Yuqin looked at him leisurely, and was going to beat him again when he arrived at Prince Gui's mansion.

"What was killed?" Qiao Mo stared, "Our master has settled all the beggars who came, so you can't see them."

Song Jiyi let out an oh.

He had heard of it, but well, this kind of thing is too difficult to do, and the annual investment is unimaginable.

Moreover, once the reputation of hosting beggars spreads, more people will come here. At that time, good deeds will turn into evil deeds and become a bottomless pit.

So he has reservations about how far King Gui can go.

"Where is Fu Qiao?" Du Jiuyan asked.

King Gui replied: "In Zhong'an Village, I will accompany you when you settle down."

Du Jiuyan nodded, his eyes were attracted by a door.It is a small door with a plaque with four big characters of Guilin Fuya hanging on it, "Is this Fuya?"

"Yes." King Gui said.

"It was originally very big, but the prince felt that the government office occupied too much land, so he shrunk the courtyards on both sides a lot, and then it became like this." Gu Qingshan explained, "There is a tax office over there, and that is big."

Du Jiuyan snorted, walked along the open door of the government office, and found that not only was the door unguarded, but even the inside of the government office was deserted.

Just as she was about to speak, she saw the policemen coming back in twos and threes from the opposite side, one by one with their trouser legs rolled up, their feet covered in mud, talking and laughing as they entered the gate.

"Have you planted rice seedlings?" Qian Daoan asked.

Gu Qingshan nodded, and said: "There is nothing to do in the yamen, but they can't get free money, so they go to work in Zhong'an Village if there is nothing to do."

"Amazing!" Du Jiuyan sighed.

Only when the society is stable and everything is in order, the people who work in government offices will be idle.

King Gui held his head up and said, "Of course, how can this king make a move?!"

"Admiration!" Du Jiuyan said, "Just now, the villain's horse was led correctly."

As we spoke, we arrived at Prince Gui's mansion.

Compared with King Huai's Mansion and Anshan Prince's Mansion, King Gui's Mansion is really not that big.The inner courtyard of the palace is not magnificently decorated, but looks like an ordinary house, with not many people coming in and out to wait on it.

After everyone settled down, everyone found a yard to live in, and Gu Qingshan arranged for the former servants to re-enter the mansion.When they left King Gui's mansion, King Gui dismissed them all.

One is because they don't live here, and these people have nothing to do, and the other is that they have to pay extra money, which is not worthwhile.

After everyone tidied up and washed, they went to Zhong'an Village with King Gui.

Going out from the west gate is Zhong'an Village.

Living along the moat, the houses in the village have the same shape. Looking from the tower, they look like a huge bowl. Du Jiuyan estimated, "Such a big village, five hundred households?"

"There are no households. There are 440 and six rooms in total." King Gui said.

Regardless of household?Du Jiuyan was puzzled, but she would understand when she went to the village.

Standing at the entrance of the village, the villagers come and go, and there are laughter and laughter from time to time, as well as the sound of children reading aloud.

"Is there a school?" Du Jiuyan asked.

King Gui nodded and said, "There is a big school."

"The facilities are very complete."

Maybe it’s because the children are in class, so after entering the village, all you see are old people, some sitting in groups in the shade of trees chatting, some tremblingly carrying vegetables home, some The other is carrying a hoe and preparing to go to work in the field.

The buffaloes were tethered in the cattle cages, chewing the grass slowly, the chickens leisurely walked along the road, pecking at the pebbles, and the ducks quacked and jumped happily into the pond in the village.

Everything is laid-back and at ease, making people feel comfortable, down-to-earth and safe.

The roads in the village are not muddy and difficult to walk, let alone dusty.A three-foot-wide pavement was paved with fine stones between each household, and bluestone slabs were used on the main road. Trees were planted on both sides of the road. Because the trees were not old enough, the trees were still half-grown saplings, but the flowers and plants were not. It is already very luxuriant, and the colorful purples and reds that catch the eye make people feel comfortable.

Du Jiuyan looked at the smiles of those old people again. They were not particularly well-dressed, and they were dozing old-fashionedly, but everyone's brows were stretched, which was the kind of relaxed and comfortable without worrying about the future.

It can be felt that they don't have to be afraid of anything, because someone has propped up the sky above their heads for them, and they are no longer afraid of falling and hitting themselves.

so good.

"My lord," Du Jiuyan said, "is this a paradise?"

King Gui smiled.
