Everyone knows that Gu Zhao will definitely be promoted after returning to Beijing, and his future is immeasurable at his age, so even if he leaves, the wealthy businessmen and gentry in Yaochang Mansion would like to have a good relationship with him, so they came to Patriarch Yan one after another , They wanted to hold a practice banquet for Gu Zhao, and give Mr. Gu a gift. Besides the banquet, they also wanted to give Mr. Gu some small gifts.

Before looking for opportunities to send things to Gu Zhao, there was no way to send them, unless it was a donation of silver, but that was also donated to the government, not Gu Zhao himself. They couldn't even find out Li's birthday, so they borrowed money from Mrs. Li There is no chance for birthday celebration and Gu Zhao to get closer. This time, Mr. Gu will not regret it.

Hearing their thoughts, Patriarch Yan laughed in his heart. Although he wanted to give it away, he thought that Gu Zhao would probably not accept it. Gu Zhao should not make such a start, lest other government officials learn it. Set a bad example.

"Yan understands what everyone means. Yan will ask Mr. Gu. If Mr. Gu has this intention, then we can prepare soon."

"Okay, I will leave this matter to Patriarch Yan."

Patriarch Yan begged to see Gu Zhao, and Gu Zhao met him. At first, he was able to successfully overthrow Fang Tongzhi and his ilk in Yaochang Mansion without the help of Patriarch Yan.

After hearing Ming Patriarch Yan's intentions, Gu Zhao waved his hand: "I understand everyone's intentions, and I don't need to do anything else. Patriarch Yan will help me to give you a few words. I hope everyone can remember that Yaochang Mansion is the place where everyone lives. In the place of Yaochang people, only when Yaochang Mansion is well-developed can everyone be better off, and if the economy of Yaochang Mansion is revitalized, everyone will have more chances to make a fortune, as in the past, the practice of exhausting resources for fishing is wrong."

"I will come back to see if I have a chance in the future. I hope everyone will be well then."

Patriarch Yan gave Gu Zhao a deep salute. There are many people who understand this set of principles, but there are a few who can really do it, Mr. Gu is the one he admires the most.

Don't others understand?However, how many people can invigorate Yaochang Mansion's economy like Mr. Gu?How many of them can act as broad-minded and generous as Gu Zhao? Those few workshops are completely handed over to Yaochang people. The school, these will be the most precious wealth left to them by Master Gu in Yaochang Mansion.

After Patriarch Yan returned home, he relayed Gu Zhao's words to others, regardless of whether he thought carefully or not, he admired Gu Zhao at this moment.

Before Gu Zhao left, Peng Ling had gone to work in Mihe County, and the magistrate of Cheng County also came to the government office to stand by. The magistrate of Cheng County was also grateful to Gu Zhao. It is Gu Zhao who gave him a great opportunity to welcome the person who went to the peak, so not only for the people of this side, but also for the sake of Mr. Gu, he must guard everything in Yaochang Mansion.

Gu Zhao asked Mr. Peng if he wanted to go back with him. Mr. Peng stayed firmly. He said that unless the environment here changes one day and is no longer as simple as it is now, he will never be able to do anything. will return home.

When Gu Zhao left, Mrs. Peng also went to see him off. The time of Gu Zhao’s departure was not announced, but a few friends still knew about it. For example, Peng Ling also rushed back to send Gu Zhao off, and Mrs. Li also packed up Good luggage is waiting for departure.

Yan Mu was also there, but he was not in a good mood. He wanted to go back to Beijing with Gu Zhao, but unfortunately the emperor refused to give him a transfer order and continued to hang him in the southwest. So he could only come over and give Gu Zhao off.

"Okay, don't be upset, at most one term will be completed, His Majesty will definitely transfer you back, it won't be long."

Yan Mu didn't feel very comforted, because he didn't want to be separated from his brother for a day, but he still forced a smile on his face: "My brother should write me more letters, by the way, tell the princess more, let her transfer me as soon as possible." go back."

Gu Zhao was almost amused, but he couldn't laugh either. He was in the same mood as Yan Mu, and he was also reluctant. After returning to Beijing, no matter whether he stayed in the capital or went to other places to take up his post, it would be impossible for him to be as close to the southwest as Yaochang Mansion , so I don't know how long it will take to see each other.

"Okay, I will write to you more often, and I will also mention it to His Highness." Gu Zhao promised.

"Are you really going to leave at night?"

"Yeah, I want to go at night and keep it quiet. I can't bear that kind of scene." Jiangnan came here once, and the scale of the farewell at Yaochang Mansion will only be larger than that of Jiangnan. Gu Zhao is still very concerned about this Confident, so this time he wanted to take advantage of the night to leave quietly.

"It seems to be quite interesting."

So one night, just as the fifth watch was ringing outside, the back door of the government office was opened, several horses were pulled out from inside, and a carriage came out from behind. One of them climbed on the horse and saw everyone coming out, so he came out from the back to see him off. The person said: "Okay, everyone, take care, don't send any more, go to bed early, and have to work tomorrow, so as not to lose your energy."

The guard who left the door for Gu Zhao almost rolled down his tears. He left Gu Zhao very reluctantly. It was Gu Zhao who brought them a great day. It is the most comfortable thing to do work under Gu Zhao's hands. Master Gu looked majestic. , but never put on airs to them.

"Master Gu, have a good trip." They kowtowed to Gu Zhao inside the door.

Gu Zhao waved his hand, then lightly pinched the horse's belly, and the horse started to move.

In order to prevent the sound of the horse's hoof from being too loud, Gu Zhao also wrapped the horse's hoof with a thick layer of cloth, and the dull knocking sound did not spread too far, and a group of people walked slowly towards the gate of the city.

At first everyone hurried on in muffled voices, and Yan Mu rode beside Gu Zhao. Halfway through the journey, Yan Mu accidentally glanced back. What he saw stunned him for a moment, and then called Gu Zhao: "Look, brother, this city The people in the village are lighting lamps to see my brother off, it seems that you have not been able to hide the time when you are going to leave, brother."

Everyone looked back one after another, including Li Shi and the others who were drowsy in the carriage. When they turned their heads and saw that oil lamps were lit up behind them, Gu Zhao suddenly got a sore nose. In a year or two, he was really busy and spanked, wishing he could split himself into several people. During that time, he had indeed lost a lot of weight, but seeing everything in front of him, he felt that everything was worth it.

His devotion is not only remembered by himself and the people around him, it is enough for those who he has paid for to remember.

Gu Zhao looked up at the sky, blinked, then waved his hands back, saying, "Don't stop, keep going."

The team didn't stop, but a voice sounded from behind the oil lamp: "Did you see that Mr. Gu is waving at them to say hello and goodbye to us, Mr. Gu has seen us."

"I really can't bear to take care of my lord, can't I go out and give it off?"

"Think about why Mr. Gu left in the dark? Mr. Gu must not be able to bear the scene of parting. We can't disregard Mr. Gu's wishes."

"Okay. But the Wanmin Umbrella we prepared will be sent to Mr. Gu. I heard that it is very useful for officials."

"Of course we will, there is really too little we can give Mr. Gu."

It was like this all the way, even Shi Mao couldn't help but wiped his eyes. When they reached the gate of the city, the guards knew their identities and opened the small gate to let them leave.

Gu Zhao thought that nothing would happen when he got out of the city, but he didn't know how fast he had gone, and he saw the light of torches lighting up in front of him, and there seemed to be a lot of them.

Gu Zhao was taken aback: "What's going on?"

Sitting on the horse, Yan Mu squinted her eyes and said lazily, "Someone is here. I suspect it's General Ji."

Gu Zhao patted him, don't be an old guy, Gu Zhao can carry out his work smoothly in Yaochang Mansion, it is inseparable from the help given to him by General Ji.

The sound of horseshoes was getting closer and closer, and it was gradually clear that the person on horseback was indeed General Ji.

Before the people approached, General Ji's hearty laughter came: "Ji knew that Mr. Gu was eclectic and different from others, so he guessed whether Mr. Gu would leave in the dark. Mr. Gu is crowded with people, and Ji has come to see Mr. Gu off, and people like me will escort Mr. Gu all the way out of the territory of Yaochang Mansion."

Gu Zhao really couldn't refuse, so he simply responded: "Thank you, General Ji, and thank you, brothers."

"Haha, Mr. Gu, feel free to go all the way."

"Okay. Let's go."

Everyone laughed, feeling a lot more relaxed than when they were in the city just now. General Ji and Gu Zhaoyanmu walked side by side, talking about relaxing topics all the way, surrounded by torches, like stars supporting the moon, until dawn At that time, we stopped to rest for a while, had breakfast, and then continued our journey.

When it was time to leave the boundary of Yaochang Mansion, General Ji waved back, someone brought something over, and General Ji solemnly handed it over to Gu Zhao: "This is something that the big guy asked Ji to give to Mr. Gu." The Wanmin Umbrella represents the wishes of all the people in Yaochang Mansion, Mr. Gu will not reject my old concubine."

Gu Zhao blinked: "Such affectionate kindness, Gu will always remember it in his heart, and tell everyone for me, I accept this gift."

"Hey, that's right, haha, Ji will be sent here, and then I wish Mr. Gu a smooth journey."

The other soldiers also shouted: "Best journey, Mr. Gu."

Mr. Gu is the most straightforward civil servant they have ever dealt with. Relying on Mr. Gu, their life in the past three years should not be too moist. After Mr. Gu left, the government office will continue to abide by the rules set by Mr. Gu, so they I am very grateful to Gu Zhao, this time I will see off Mr. Gu, and there will be competition for the spot.

Gu Zhao waved vigorously at everyone, and so did the others.

Not far away, General Ji's roar came from behind: "Mr. Ping Nan, where are you going to send it? You won't be sending it all the way to the capital, right?"

Gu Zhao laughed, Yan Mu actually stayed by his side, not staying with General Ji, Gu Zhao patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, farewell thousands of miles away, I have to say goodbye, let's go here, there is General Ji on the way back Talking to relieve boredom, I also feel relieved."
