Chapter 410 Tianquan Villa
Obtaining the method of making fine iron was extremely important to Gu Yuzhi. He didn't even wait for the chef of Baoyue Zhai. He took Xie Changshi, Zhang Shiwei and other people and went to Yunzhou overnight.

Xue Ye and other beasts escorted her all the way. Gu Yuzhi lay half on Xue Ye's back, feeling extremely comfortable all over. He pinched Xue Ye's ears and whispered: "When I return to Mobei, I will still ride on your back. Come on."

How could Xue Ye not agree? She nodded while running, wishing she could take His Highness back to Mobei now.

Everyone didn't waste much time on the road, and finally arrived at Yunzhou City at noon on the fifth day.

Gu Yuzhi stood on the mountain forest and looked down. Compared to the two wealthy prefectures of Jiangzhou and Jiangzhou, Yunzhou seemed much poorer.

The city is not as tall and powerful, and the entire city is much smaller than Jiangzhou.

Gu Yuzhi puffed up his face and said, "I can't even see the end of the city in Jiangzhou when I stand on the mountain."

The distance from one city gate to another is quite long.

Gu Yufan's Chu Prince's Mansion alone occupies several hundred acres of land.

He rolled off Xue Ye and patted Xue Ye's head gently: "I'm going to go in and talk about something now. If everything goes well, I'll come out tonight. If it doesn't go well..."

He scratched his head: "If it doesn't go well, it may take several days. You can take your brothers to play in the mountains and forests these days, and you are not allowed to go and scare people."

Xueye whined softly and watched Gu Yuzhi and others go down the mountain. Only then did it return to its previous aloof image, leading the beasts away with its head held high.

Jiangnan was settled, and Gu Yuzhi naturally had no intention of hiding his whereabouts. When he arrived at the gate of the city, Xie Changshi showed the prince's token to the defenders.

The city defender was stunned for a moment, then knelt down with his body soft: "Young man, see His Highness King Wen, His Highness King Wen is a thousand years old, a thousand years old!"

Gu Yuzhi sat on his horse and looked down at the city defender, only the top of his head was visible: "Get up."

The city guard stood up hurriedly, turned around and pulled the guard beside him: "Go and inform the prefect..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Yuzhi interrupted him: "There is no need to inform your prefect, I am not here to find him."

He glanced at Guard Zhang, who stepped forward with a solemn face: "Send a guide to take us to Tianquan Villa."

When the guard heard that he was going to Tianquan Villa, a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Your Highness is going to Tianquan Villa. You must have asked the right person. The village where I lived is near Tianquan Villa."

After speaking, he raised his eyes to look at His Highness, then quickly lowered his head. Seeing that His Highness remained silent, he boldly continued: "Tianquan Villa is not in Yunzhou City, but needs to go out from the south gate. A few dozen miles further, on Tianquan Mountain."

Guard Zhang glanced at him: "Are you going straight along the official road?"

The guard shook his head: "No, after arriving at our village, we still have to walk some distance into the mountains."

He glanced at the position of the sun and said, "If Your Highness wants to go today, he must set off now."

Gu Yuzhi glanced at Xie Changshi and saw Xie Changshi nod slightly. Then he raised his chin slightly.

Xie Changshi took out a tael of silver from his arms and handed it over: "Please lead the way. Today we will go to Tianquan Villa."

The guard's eyes shone when he saw Yin Zi, but he gritted his teeth and refused: "It is a small honor to lead His Highness, and I don't dare to make profit from it."

These little officials actually feel it very deeply.

Although the prefect of Yunzhou is not a treacherous person, he has indeed deducted a lot of money from petty officials like them before, but this month, the prefect did not deduct a single penny. Someone revealed the news that His Highness knew all the bad things done by the prefect, but now the matter of King Chu's rebellion is more important. After these things are over, His Highness will definitely turn around and deal with the prefect.

The guard didn't want to put the prefect in jail, so he was satisfied that he could make the prefect more honest in the future and not deduct money from them.

The guards hurriedly led the horses and led Gu Yuzhi and his party to gallop towards Tianquan Villa.

After the group of them exited the south gate, Yunzhou Magistrate finally got the news and ran all the way to the south gate to chase him. His hat was tilted as he chased, but he didn't even see a single figure.

The prefect of Yunzhou stamped his feet vigorously, and his hat, which was already crooked, fell to the ground with a bang, staining the ground with dust.

He looked at the black gauze hat, his face turned pale, and he muttered: "It's over, it's over, my black gauze hat is definitely not safe!"

Gu Yuzhi and others didn't know about this episode, so they just kept running forward, and finally arrived at the foot of Tianquan Mountain before dark.

He raised his head and looked at Tianquan Mountain. There were stone pillars on both sides of the stairs, and two lanterns were hung on each stone pillar. The dim light dispelled the darkness in this area, so that people returning at night would not go up the mountain in the dark. .

Gu Yuzhi whispered: "I don't know how long this stone staircase is!"

These stone stairs are all hand-hewn, plus the carved stone pillars, etc., which cost a lot of money.

He couldn't understand why the owner wanted to build the villa on the top of the mountain.

The guard scratched his head and said: "Your Highness, please go up and call the door..."

But Guard Zhang waved his hand and said, "Your home is not far away. You go back first. I'll go up and call the door."

It would have been midnight by the time the guard climbed up such a high staircase. He was fast on his feet, so it was natural for him to go up.

As soon as Guard Zhang finished speaking, he heard a rush of footsteps, and a figure slowly emerged from the steps ahead.

The man was wearing coarse linen training clothes. Although he didn't know Gu Yuzhi, he saw the silk clothes on his body at a glance, and naturally understood that the child's status was either rich or noble.

He bent down and saluted repeatedly: "I am an outer disciple of Tianquan Villa. What do you want to do with your visit to my Villa?"

Guard Zhang could tell at a glance that this man was not very skilled in martial arts. Although he was said to be an outer disciple, he was actually equivalent to the concierge in His Highness's residence.

He took out the prince's token and said: "Inform your village owner that His Royal Highness is coming."

The outer disciple stared at the token with trembling eyes, and after reacting, he knelt down and said, "Young man, see His Highness King Wen. Please follow me up the mountain, Your Highness King Wen."

Even if their Tianquan Villa has a good status in the world, it is definitely not a reason for them to let a prince wait outside the door!

The outer disciple turned around and sent out a purple-red signal flare to remind everyone in the villa that a very distinguished guest was coming, and the owner of the villa needed to come down the mountain to greet him, and then led Gu Yuzhi and others up.

He glanced at Gu Yuzhi's satin boots out of the corner of his eye, quickly looked away, and explained in a low voice the reason for sending the flare just now.

Xie Changshi stroked his beard and nodded secretly.

The concierge of Tianquan Villa is so good at doing things. No wonder Tianquan Villa has a good status in the world!
