The reason why it is called "now" is because the past government of Siming Mansion was further west, and later because of some indescribable reasons, it was transferred here and built Haiyuan City.

Haiyuan City is located in the south of the Ming River, the northeast outside this city, is a moat and several watchtowers, there is a green dragon glaive knife flowing through the river in the southwest, and the location of Haiyuan City is just in the big knife bend, from the topography is indeed a strategic point that is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Haiyuan City is regarded as a traffic point at this time, the travelers from the south to the north are second to none in Guinan, the market day of three days is very lively, the bells of the caravans selling star anise and rosin are tinkling non-stop, a team of rivers is endless, and the wooden and bamboo rows on the river are moored at the river bay wharf to supplement food supplies and so on.

Due to the large number of floating populations coming and going, it has brought prosperity to the food and inn industry here. There are many businessmen in Haiyuan City, and there are many rich people, and the richest, except for the Huang family of the Tu Governor's Mansion, are the people who live in Zhengjie. Most of the houses on both sides of the main street, especially the streets, are blue brick houses, which is rare in Guinan at this time.

However, the most spectacular and majestic street has to count the Yamen of the Natu Prefect, which has been a symbol of the power of the Huang Guinantu Emperor since the establishment of Haiyuan City.

Although Haiyuan City is a mountainous city, most of the more than 10 villages around Haiyuan City are plains and hills, the land is fertile, the water resources are particularly good, and most of them are fertile fields and beautiful land for drought and flood protection. It is a transportation hub connecting all parts of southern Guangxi, connecting Taiping Mansion in the north, Lianzhou Mansion in the east, Nanguan Town in the west, and Anbang Town in the south.

However, Gao Pragmatic still has a lot of doubts about the word Haiyuan in "Haiyuan City", which is obviously the mountainous area of Guinan, and the nearest sea - Beibu Gulf must be two hundred miles away, where does the word Haiyuan start?

However, as a landlord, Huang Zhiting quickly told him the reason, it turned out that there was a big pond in the west of Haiyuan City, which was not only large in area, but also quite deep, and was called Haiyuan by the natives of Guinan.

Huang Zhiting also proudly said that her swimming skills were practiced in "Haiyuan".

Gao Pragmatic has walked with her for nearly a thousand miles, although it has not been for a long time, but it can be regarded as familiar, and now there is not much fear. And he found that Huang Zhiting seemed to be more accepting of his malicious jokes, so he had a lot less scruples when he spoke.

Hearing Huang Zhiting's words at this moment, Gao Shishi directly teased: "You're not afraid of someone suddenly appearing in the water." ”

Huang Zhiting's face suddenly turned red, if it weren't for the fact that there were already a group of wolf soldiers around her at this time, she would have to deal with Gao Shishi.

But at this moment, there was no choice but to say with hatred: "This is Siming Mansion!" When this girl is playing in the water in the abyss, she will naturally send someone to clear the scene, how can anyone dare to seek death? ”

Oh, that's true.

Gao pragmatic nodded and said with a smile: "I forgot that this is your family's territory." ”

"Well, you know. This girl reminds you that even if you are not afraid of snakes and insects now, this girl has a way to pinch you, don't make mistakes. ”

"Handle?" Gao Pragmatic touched the chin that hadn't grown a beard at all: "I didn't expect the girl to have this craft, I like to pinch my back more ...... girl."

"You go to die!" Huang Zhiting was embarrassed and annoyed, and quietly glanced around, fortunately, this group of wolf soldiers who were used to bringing by themselves were very eye-catching, and they did not squint, as if they were deaf to these words. Especially Huang Hu, he walked in front of his head as usual, except for two jumps at the corner of his eyebrows, he didn't react at all.

Speaking of which, Huang Hu has also worked hard all the way. At that time, after he and Cen Qigongzi parted ways, he had been trying every means to trace Huang Zhiting's traces, and after finding clues, he hurried and hurried until he caught up in Bazhai before he knew that his eldest lady and that Zhang Gongzi had gone to Siming Mansion.

One of the generals of Huang Hu Siming's Mansion, he is not the strongest in terms of leading troops, but because of his martial arts, he is often sent by Huang Chengzu to protect Huang Zhiting, so he is quite sure of what route Huang Zhiting will choose. Sure enough, after chasing for another three days, he finally caught up with Huang Zhiting and Gao Shishi in Si'en Mansion.

So I didn't say much, so I naturally escorted the eldest lady and the two south. And for Huang Zhiting and Gao Shishi, the appearance of Huang Hu also helped them solve big troubles - the two of them were penniless, and they walked by eating wild fruits for nearly ten days, and they only ate two meals in Luoyu Village, and they were really about to fade out of their mouths.

"Hahahaha......" Gao pragmatically laughed, it seemed that he didn't take this earth princess in his eyes at all, but Huang Zhiting didn't seem to have anything to do with him, except for a cold snort, there was no follow-up.

Huang Hu listened to it in front of his head, and couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart: Miss, aunt, don't you like this crazy birth, although he has a reputation for showing off his talents, but what is the top of that thing in the eyes of the Huang family? Even if the prefect gave him a quota for lifting, he might not be able to make up for the real shortage in Guangxi, what use does this kind of person have for the Huang family?

You are the pearl of our prefect's palm, and there is a chance that you will marry other big toasts, and it doesn't matter who the object will be now, but it's better than mixing with this crazy life!

It's just that although Huang Hu thinks so, he doesn't dare to mention it to Huang Zhiting, after all, the rule of Tusi is completely different from the land of the imperial court, Tusi is a matter of life and death to the people under his rule, and the rules are very strict, who the eldest lady likes to deal with, only the prefect can manage it, and even her younger brothers have no right to speak.

And although he Huanghu is also surnamed Huang, but their family's branch was not a Tusi clan relative a hundred years ago, and his bloodline was ridiculously far away, where did he dare to talk more?

Just between Gao Pragmatic and Huang Zhiting talking about the trouble, this group of people had already arrived at the gate of Haiyuan City. In fact, although this Haiyuan City is a big city in Guinan, in the eyes of Gao Pragmatic, its size and prosperity are nothing more than the same level as Xinzheng County, and only one point is far beyond Xinzheng County, that is, city defense.

Haiyuan City is backed by the Mingjiang River, not to mention, the city wall is also quite tall and strong, although it is not comparable with the city defense of Datong City, but in Guangxi, I am afraid it is not inferior to Liuzhou, second only to Guilin. This is already a big project for Siming Mansion, which has no support from the imperial court and only relies on the financial support of a government, and I don't know how much sweat the people of Siming Mansion have spent to build it.

Huang Zhiting, the eldest lady of Toast, was not as easy as the ladies in the Central Plains who refused to show up, so she swaggered into the city under the escort of more than 200 wolf soldiers.

What especially made Gao Shishi dumbfounded was the reaction of those natives after seeing the flag representing her identity - when she saw the flag from afar, she quickly ran to the side of the road and knelt down, knocked her head on the ground, and waited for the wolf soldier team to appear in front of her, and began to kowtow non-stop until the last wolf soldier shadow of the team disappeared from front of her. But even at this time, he didn't dare to raise his head, let alone get up, and he had to wait a little longer before he dared to get up from the ground.

During the whole process, none of the locals dared to raise their heads and glance at Huang Zhiting. And Huang Zhiting didn't look at these kneeling natives, obviously used to nature for a long time.

Gao pragmatic has only one feeling:, this rule is bigger than seeing the emperor!

Fortunately, although there were many people in Haiyuan City, it was not very large, and it didn't take long to walk along the main street from the south gate to the prefect's yamen in the north, which is the Huang Mansion.
