All the guests gathered at Gu Pingyuan's home. The guest who surprised Gu Pingyuan the most was General Jiangning's Ninth Commander. The Ninth Commander and Su Zixuan came to congratulate him.It turns out that ten years of war have ended, and Jiangnan is in dilapidated condition. Ruilin, the governor of Liangjiang, wants to find someone with a clean background and good business knowledge to run the seven provinces of Jiangnan well.The Ninth Marshal came here this time because he was entrusted by Ruilin, the governor of Liangjiang, and wanted Gu Pingyuan to go and revive Jiangning's economy.
Gu Pingyuan knew that this was not a good job and wanted to refuse, but the Ninth Commander ignored him and left with a wave of his hand.Just after Su Zixuan left, news of guests came again, and Li Wantang sent his son Li Qin to congratulate him.Li Qin suggested that Gu Pingyuan reject the Ninth Commander's request to go to Nanjing because he was going to the south to engage in salt administration and asked Gu Pingyuan to give himself a break. Gu Pingyuan agreed.Li Qin promised that even if their brothers turned against each other because of business, he would not harm Gu Pingyuan.
After Gu Pingyuan and Chang Yuer sent off all the guests, they finally had time to get along. They were about to get intimate when suddenly Prince Horqin came with a group of Horqin warriors to congratulate them.Chang Yu'er and Gu Pingyuan were very moved. When they arrived in the courtyard, they found that the prince had ordered tents, barbecues, clothes and wine to be set up according to Mongolian customs.The lively Mongolian singing, dancing and drinking ceremony was so lively that Gu Pingyuan fell drunk.The next day, when Gu Pingyuan opened his eyes, the Ninth Commander had already sent someone to take Gu Pingyuan and his family to Nanjing.
