Lu Fei looked at the young man with interest and asked, "What's your name?"
The young man replied, "Young Master, I'm Zou Yuan. Thank you for saving my life."
Lu Fei suddenly realized, "So you're Yu An. Not bad, you're fine. That's great."
Zou Yuan replied, "Fortunately, Young Master sent me a letter in time. After I asked for leave that day, an officer chased after me. I was saved by Brother Ma Teng."
Lu Fei said, "Let's go back first."
Zou Yuan was stunned, "Okay."
Lu Fei nodded to himself. Although Zou Yuan had doubts, he did not ask. It was a habit of a soldier. More importantly, he knew who the real master was.
Zou Yuan asked, "What about this bandit?"
The bandit had fainted. Lu Fei said without turning his head, "Kill him."
Zou Yuan chopped off the bandit's head with his sword and quickly followed behind Lu Fei. The caravan went back the same way they came. One of the servants let Lu Fei ride his horse. Lu Fei and Zou Yuan took the lead. Zou Yuan lagged behind slightly. The horse's head was always a few feet behind Lu Fei.
Lu Fei smiled and said, "Yu An, you don't have to be so polite. Follow me."
Zou Yuan immediately walked side by side with Lu Fei. Lu Fei said, "I heard from Jade Finger that you're very brave on the battlefield. You're indeed extraordinary."
Zou Yuan immediately said, "Young Master, you flatter me. I just have some brute force."
Lu Fei laughed involuntarily. "Brute force? Then Dian Wei is nothing. "
Zou Yuan could not help but smile at the mention of Dian Wei. Lu Fei said, "The Lan family wouldn't dare to make such a big fuss. They must have something to rely on. If we don't find out who's behind this, you'll be in constant trouble. When we go back, I'll let Third Brother personally escort the goods."
Zou Yuan was suddenly enlightened. "So that's how it is."
Lu Fei praised, "You've been in the fu for such a short time, yet you've been entrusted with such an important task. It can be seen that you do have some ability."
Zou Yu 'an said, "Actually, before we came out, Brother Lin told me to treat this as an experiment. If there were any unforeseen circumstances, I would have to return immediately."
Lu Fei nodded and said, "This Zheng Lin is pretty smart. Did the Lu family make any enemies recently?"
Zou Yuan nodded and said, "Speaking of which, it's my fault. Some time ago, my sister was molested when she went out. I was so angry that I beat that person up. That person turned out to be someone with a strong background. His name is Gongsun Teng. His father is a court official. I think his name is Gongsun Zan. They colluded with the county magistrate to punish me. After that, Young Master Han went to assassinate the county magistrate. After that, they didn't make any moves. This time, they might be involved. "
Lu Fei nodded and said, "You didn't do anything wrong. How can the people of the Lu family be bullied by others? Even if it's just one person, no one has the right to criticize us. If anyone dares to bully us, we'll fight back. We don't want to cause trouble, but that doesn't mean we can't afford to. If anyone dares to bully us in the future, we'll fight back first. Remember that? "
Zou Yuan's eyes were filled with excitement as he nodded and said, "I remember."
Lu Fei smiled. After all, young people were all hot-blooded men. It was because of this that Zou Yuan was willing to work for the Lu family. After all, someone like him who had been oppressed for a long time needed to be appreciated. He also needed to regain his dignity. And now, Lu Fei had already built up a sense of superiority in his heart. A sense of superiority as a member of the Lu family.
Everyone rushed back to Zhuo County. Looking at the tall city walls, Lu Fei felt a warm feeling in his heart. Zou Yuan directly led the carriages into the city. The soldiers at the gate didn't stop them at all. Lu Fei thought to himself. Now that the Lu family was powerful, there shouldn't be any problems in dealing with the government.
The carriages traveled through the bustling streets. When they arrived at the gate of the Lu residence, the porridge stall not far away was still serving.
When the guards at the gate saw that Lu Fei had returned, they immediately opened the gate to welcome everyone. Lu Fei flipped his horse and greeted the guards at the gate. Along the way, everyone who saw Lu Fei immediately bowed. Lu Fei nodded his head in response. When he passed by a courtyard, he saw Guan Yu and Zhang Fei training a group of youths in the courtyard. These youths had made some progress in their martial arts. Under the daily high-intensity training, each of them could knock down a few burly men.
Guan Yu glanced at Lu Fei, who was standing at the gate, and immediately laughed, "Big Brother, you're back."
Hearing this, Zhang Fei also ran over and said happily, "Big Brother, you're finally back. I missed you so much."
With A Smile, Lu Fei looked at them and said, "You two have worked hard while I wasn't here."
Guan Yu said, "Big Brother, what are you talking about? This place is like our own home. Everything is what we should do."
Lu Fei nodded and said, "You guys continue. We'll have a good drink tonight."
"Okay." Zhang Fei shouted, "If you don't drink seven or eight million bowls, you're not allowed to sleep."
Lu Fei laughed and said yes again and again. Seeing that the two youths continued their training, Lu Fei walked back to his own house. While walking, he suddenly heard laughter coming from behind the courtyard wall. Lu Fei turned around the wall and stood at the gate to look into the courtyard. He saw Hua Yang and Ma Chao practicing martial arts. Ma Chao was not old and was not as tall as Hua Yang, so he was at a disadvantage. Although he was beaten black and blue, he looked like nothing had happened. After being punched by Hua Yang again, Ma Chao shouted, "You used the wrong move. Master didn't teach me this."
Hua Yang said, "But Master said that as long as it can defeat the enemy, it's a good move. Why do you care if my move is right or not?"
He immediately stepped back and laughed, "You've been tricked."
Hua Yang covered his body and fell to the ground with a painful look. Ma Chao quickly went forward and said, "Big Brother, what's wrong with you? I didn't use my strength. "
As soon as he got close, Hua Yang jumped up and punched at Ma Chao's chest. Ma Chao reacted quickly. He blocked Hua Yang's fist with both of his palms. Both of them retreated a few steps. Ma Chao shouted, "You cheated."
Hua Yang said proudly, "All is fair in war. You cheated just now, didn't you?"
Lu Fei smiled and said, "All is fair in war. But if your martial arts are not good enough, it's useless no matter how many tricks you use."
"Master!" When the two heard Lu Fei's voice, they both turned around. Ma Chao screamed and pounced on Lu Fei, baring his fangs and brandishing his claws.
