Chapter 363 We have a backbone again
At this time, Liu Qingyun and other Black Wind Society killers came towards Yu Jiuer excitedly.
Until now, they have not recovered from the shock.
Liu Qingyun sighed, "Rumors really can't be believed! If Yinshan County is considered poor, is there any place in the world that is rich?"
Wang Badan touched his forehead and said in disbelief, "I never thought that there is such a magical place hidden in the Great Dong Dynasty. What is flying in the sky? Can we go up and play?"
"That's a hot air balloon. There are so many amazing things in Yinshan County, such as paragliders, water wheels, windmills, biogas, greenhouses, faucets, etc. These are all novelties not available outside! When I have time, I can take you country bumpkins to see them!"
Shadow's tone was full of pride, and he looked at Yu Jiuer with eyes full of admiration, "These are all researched by the master!"
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go now!" Liu Qingyun couldn't wait any longer.
Yu Jiuer smiled and ordered Shadow: "You take them! You don't have to stay with me to protect me in Yinshan County. The prince told me in the letter that he has ordered the Yulin Army to protect the entire county from all directions. Now not even a fly can fly into the county, it is very safe.
You will be responsible for taking the people from the Black Wind Society around for a few days. Five days later, except for the six female assassins, the rest of them will immediately set off to return to the capital to get more money while the new emperor is in a state of panic!"
"Yes!"
After responding, the group of dreaded Black Wind Society killers jumped up with joy like naughty children, and foolishly ran towards the direction of the hot air balloon: "Stop! That ball, wait for us! We want to go up too!"
"Hey! Wait for me!" Liu Qingyun was not willing to be outdone. She used her internal energy to fly up and chased after everyone.
Shadow said disdainfully: "It's terrible to be so unworldly!"
As he said this, he raised his foot and followed.
Yu Jiuer turned around and asked the six female killers who were full of envy: "Do you want to go and take a look?"
The six people suppressed their impulse and shook their heads. One of them said maturely, "From now on, we will stay by the side of the chief leader. There will be plenty of opportunities. We won't compete with those country bumpkins!"
Yu Jiuer couldn't help laughing and told Yueying: "I'll leave them to you. It's up to you to make them sincerely convinced by you!"
After saying that, Yu Jiuer ran towards the villagers who were waiting for her on the side.
Mu Xier walked forward and held Yu Jiuer's hand: "Jiuer, your great achievements in the capital have spread to the Northwest. You are the pride of our Northwest.
Nowadays, who in the entire northwest doesn’t know Yinshan County? Who doesn’t know that there is a female county magistrate named Yu Jiuer in Yinshan County?
We all benefit from you, thank you for always being so awesome!"
Ruyan changed her usual cold temperament and went straight forward to hug Yu Jiuer: "My little husband is the most powerful!"
"You're still calling me like that even though you're married to Brother Cheng. What should I do if Brother Cheng comes after me?" Yu Jiuer stroked her back gently.
It feels like a lifetime ago that she can come back safe and sound and hug her "wives"!
Speak of the devil, and here comes the devil. Yu Jiuer heard Cheng Ming's rough and loud voice: "Sister, you finally decided to come back?"
Yu Jiuer looked up and saw Cheng Ming walking towards her with a child in his arms.
"What is this?..." Yu Jiuer let go of Ruyan and happily reached out to hug the child. "When was it born? Why didn't anyone notify me?"
Cheng Ming smiled so hard that his mouth stretched to the back of his ears. He scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "Almost two years old!"
Yu Jiuer hugged the baby tightly in her arms and gave Cheng Ming and Ru Yan a reproachful look: "Okay! I have only been away from Yinshan County for two years and four months, and your son is almost two years old, doesn't it mean?... When I was still in Yinshan County, you got together?
You are so good, Cheng Ming, you are my sworn brother! How dare you cheat on me? "
"Hahaha..." Everyone couldn't help but burst into laughter.
The eldest lady hurriedly reminded him, "Don't make such jokes again in the future. We have finally made that matter a secret forever. We must never mention it again. This is a matter of life and death that concerns the lives of the entire county!"
"Yes, yes, yes! We haven't seen each other for a long time. We are too happy! The new emperor and our prince don't get along. If he knows the secret of my disguise, our whole county will be finished! We must forget about this matter completely from now on!"
"You're still talking?" Mu Xier was so scared that she quickly came over and covered Yu Jiuer's mouth.
Yu Jiuer pulled down Mu Xier's hand and teased her: "Ruyan's son is almost two years old, what about you and Wang Meng's? I remember that when Wang Meng's father was rescued from the Western Regions, he was looking forward to his grandson all the way!"
Mu Xier blushed, touched her belly and said shyly, "It's been two months in my belly! Lord Liang just checked my pulse yesterday."
"Really?" Yu Jiuer looked at Wang Meng excitedly, threw a punch at him, and said jokingly, "Wang Meng, you're not bad either! You're going to be a father, are you happy?"
Wang Meng, a big and strong man, scratched his head and said with a silly smile: "Yeah, that's it!"
"What do you mean, just like that? As soon as Dr. Liang announced the good news yesterday, he came to me with wine. He was so excited that he drank until midnight and refused to let me go. If you don't know, you would think the child was born with me." A co-worker covered his mouth and teased him.
Wang Meng blushed and yelled at him, "Shut up! Didn't drinking so much wine from me last night shut up your stinky mouth? Don't scare my wife and kids!"
"Hahaha......"
Madam Kong Hui wiped her tears and said, "That's great! Lord Yu is back, and we have a backbone again. We finally feel at ease! I'm not saying that Lord Li and Lord County Magistrate are bad, but I feel bad for Lord Yu..."
Before Madam Kong Hui finished speaking, Li Yun and his second uncle said at the same time: "We all understand!"
Seeing that everyone had finished chatting, the eldest lady urged Yu Jiuer, "You should return home and settle down quickly! We have already discussed that when you come back, we will hold a banquet for hundreds of families, and the whole county will celebrate your return home in glory and bring honor to the people!"
"Okay! I really miss the cooking skills of my fellow villagers!" Yu Jiuer resisted the urge to cry, "We'll do it tomorrow. There will also be delicious food at the entrance of Prince Jing's mansion. Let's all come and eat together!"
According to the tradition of Yinshan County, the banquet of a hundred families is held by each family preparing a few of their specialties and placing them at their doorsteps. People from the entire county hold their bowls and eat along the way, and everyone is happy together.
When Yu Jiuer returned to Prince Jing's mansion, she learned that the old emperor was playing with the children in the garden. She approached him and teased, "Old man, is Yinshan County as poor as you imagined? Is Prince Jing's mansion a thatched cottage or a mud house?"
"What are you so proud of? Wasn't it me who used my private money to build this Prince Jing's mansion for Mo'er? Otherwise, do you think you would have such a good place to live?" The old emperor was stubborn and continued,
"Also, if I hadn't promised the prisoners' families to settle in Yinshan County, would you have so much productivity? Would Yinshan County have developed so well?"
"Ha! You're really out of breath after I praised you a few times?" Yu Jiuer couldn't help but ridicule him.
"Are all the new buildings and shops in the county built thanks to you? Are the good lives we Yinshan people can live thanks to your teachings during your reign?
Tell me, if the people knew that you were the emperor, would they be grateful to you?"
"That's not necessary!" The old emperor was not humble at all. He accepted Yu Jiuer's ridicule as a compliment. His face was thicker than the Great Wall.
Yu Jiuer snorted in her heart, thinking that he would not dare to let the people know his identity. When he was in power, he had oppressed the people of Yinshan County a lot. It would be good enough if the people didn't beat him to a pulp!
At dinner, the old emperor had the best meal since his escape.
They slept in the open air along the way and had to make do with the food they had. He had been starved by Yu Jiuer in the Witch Village before, but he did not dare to make a fuss about the food and managed to hold on until he reached Yinshan County.
"The climate in Yinshan County is really unique. How can we eat shiny green vegetables in early March?" The old emperor kept stuffing the delicious green vegetables into his mouth and nodded in praise.
Rong Yun (Prime Minister Rong) arrived in Yinshan County a month earlier than the old emperor. He had enjoyed the privilege of eating fresh vegetables in the winter for a long time. He responded, "These vegetables in the palace were sent by the people."
Thanks to the greenhouse, the people had so much food that they couldn't finish it and sent it to the Yulin Army.
However, he did not dare to say the last sentence in front of the old emperor, for fear that he would despise the charity given to him.
In the old emperor's cognition, being able to eat green vegetables in winter or just after winter is a great thing. Such scarce and rare green vegetables are served on the table of Prince Jing's Mansion, and the people must have squeezed out their money to give them as a tribute.
So, he nodded and praised: "The people are sensible. They keep the good things close to the palace. Not bad!"
Yu Jiuer said directly: "Tomorrow's Hundred Family Banquet will let you see what the good things in Yinshan County are!"
His jaw dropped!
