Chapter 610 Chapter 612 Farewell
"...Sir," Jiang Shuiniu's hesitant voice came from outside the car window.
"What's going on? You're so hesitant." Gu Wenheng walked over and lifted the curtain of the car. A scene that would be unforgettable for him for the rest of his life appeared before his eyes.
Not far from the city gate, the roads on both sides were densely packed with people from Lucheng.
As soon as they saw him come out, these people knelt down on the ground quietly without making any sound.
This is also the only way for them to repay Lord Gu. They had given him gifts before, but Lord Gu did not take a penny. So today they chose this way to send off the official who brought them hope.
Gu Wenheng looked up at the sky. The early morning sky was still a little gray and the sun had not yet come out, but he felt it was particularly beautiful.
He tried hard to blink a few times, and when he looked at the people again, his face was full of smiles, "Everyone, it's so early?
It looks like a good day today, so let's all go about our business.
Don't delay here, this is the main road out of the city, it would be bad if it affects pedestrians..."
He thought he had spoken very easily, but towards the end he almost choked up.
"Send Master Gu..."
"The people of Lucheng send you off..."
"The merchants from Lucheng are sending you off..."
"Lvcheng Guan Kun sends you all off..."
"Students from Lucheng send you off..."
…
As the voices became louder and louder, Gu Wenheng and his group fell into silence.
In the carriages behind, He Gaofei and his companions had already burst into tears.
At this moment, they did not feel that this behavior was disgraceful, but they could no longer control themselves.
Gu Wenheng adjusted himself for a long time, stood in front of the carriage, and bowed deeply to the people in front of him, "Go back..."
As for what to say next, he couldn't say it.
He Gaofei and a few others, supported by their followers, stood behind him and bowed deeply to these simple people.
Seeing that these people were unwilling to leave for a long time, Gu Wenheng could only harden his heart, turned back to the carriage, and shouted to everyone, "Let's go."
As they gradually moved away from the city gate, there were people following them in the distance for ten miles before they slowly stopped.
Completely far away from Lucheng, Gu Wenheng could no longer hold back his emotions. He cried and said to Jin Qianqian, "My life has been worth it."
Jin Qianqian pushed him in annoyance, "What nonsense are you talking about? Life is so long, and there are infinite possibilities in the future. How can it end here?"
"Yes, God has given us a chance to live in this world, and we should not let it go to waste.
Wife, I'm just going to make things difficult for you in the future."
Jin Qianqian knew that he was re-establishing his ambitions for himself, "Don't worry, just do what you want to do, I'll take care of the rest."
…
When they arrived at the next rest stop, Gu Wenheng discovered that He Gaofei and the other three had swollen eyes.
Everyone just looked at each other without saying anything, and after a short rest they continued on their way.
The city of law
Because of the departure of Gu Wenheng and others, the whole city was exceptionally silent.
In the prefectural government office, Tang Liping and his colleagues had been sitting in silence for most of the day.
After waiting for a long time, Tang Liping finally sighed.
"Master Tang, it seems that our burden will not be easy from now on."
Fang Wan could be said to have a worried look on his face all the time. Gu Wenheng and his men were too successful and were loved by the people.
This is not good news for them. With such a strong contrast hanging above their heads, if they make any mistakes, it will be magnified infinitely.
Wang Youtian said with envy, "In fact, I envy them. If we can have such a grand ceremony when we leave office, then my life will be worth it."
"Don't even think about it," Shi Xingchen said realistically. "According to the previous arrangement of Lord Gu, as long as we continue to maintain it, the political achievements in the past few years will be fine. But we are enjoying the convenience of our predecessors planting trees, so don't be so demanding."
Wang Youtian, “… just think about it…” I am already too exhausted to compete with him, is it not okay to just think about it?
The General's Mansion
Zhou Shixiong also sat in the study and was silent for a long time.
“This is the will of the people…”

Shangjinggufu
Xu Dawang also arrived at the gate early today, and two carriages were already parked in front.
"Master Le Huan, maybe the letter from the master returning to Beijing has not yet been delivered to Gaoling Village. Please remember to inform the old master and the others first."
Seeing Gu Lehuan already on the carriage, Xu Dawang reminded him again.
Gu Lehuan, "Don't worry, Butler Xu, I will pass it on.
I dare not forget such a big thing."
Xu Dawang: "..." That's not necessarily true. This time I go back to complete my lifelong event. If I get busy by then, I'm afraid I'll really miss something.
Although they didn't know whether the master had sent any letters to Gaoling Village, they still had to think about some trivial matters first.
At this time, two more carriages arrived outside the ancient mansion. Xu Dawang knew that they were the girls from the Xu family.
"Then I won't delay Master Le Huan. I'll first wish Master Le Huan a happy marriage."
Gu Lehuan thanked him quickly, and seeing that people had arrived, he immediately ordered the carriage to set off.
They are not traveling alone, they have to meet up with the escort agency in front.
He had already written back, and his father at home replied, telling him that everything was ready and they were just waiting for them to go back and hold the wedding.
Gu Lehuan was always excited thinking about his relatives whom he hadn't seen for a long time.
After two days of hard work, the carriage finally left the escort agency and headed towards Gaoling Village along the road to Fu County.
Since they were an unmarried couple, he and Xu Nuo rode in separate carriages, but they exchanged carriages during a break halfway through the journey.
After all, the ancient mansion's carriage has been improved and is much more comfortable to ride.
"Girl, don't be nervous." Sanhua lifted the curtain and as soon as she saw the carriage entering the country road, she guessed that it was almost there.
Xu Nuo glanced at her and said, "I'm not nervous, but you should stop clenching your fists so tightly."
Sanhua, “I’m anxious, and I don’t know if the elders of the Gu family are easy to get along with?
You only brought me and Da Zhuang with you, and I'm afraid that if something happens, the two of us won't be able to protect you."
Xu Nuo smiled and said, "What have you been gossiping about with those old women these days?
This isn't a dangerous place, it's not as exaggerated as you say."
"But I heard from my mother-in-law that this poor and remote place breeds unruly people, and many rural women will waste their daughters-in-law."
Xu Nuo immediately became serious, "It's okay for you to say these things now, but don't say them when the time comes.
The Gu family is not an ordinary family, otherwise there would not be a figure like Lord Gu.
You can also tell Da Zhuang to do more work and talk less, so as not to cause trouble for me later."
Sanhua was still a little worried, "…But what if they bully us? Should we endure it?"
