Lu Fei was secretly amused. Both of them crouched down, so the assassin would think that Liu Yu was Lu Fei.
In the blink of an eye, they had reached the center of the forest. Lu Fei was secretly vigilant. Suddenly, there was a slight sound from the other side, followed by a violent burst of energy. A figure suddenly rushed toward Liu Yu. At the same time, another person on Lu Fei's side also rushed over. It seemed that the other party was not sure which one was Lu Fei, so they simply both assassinated to see who had the higher martial arts skill and who was Lu Fei.
Lu Fei fiercely shouted, "Be careful." He pulled Liu Yu off the horse and shouted, "Assassins!"
The two men were masked. One of them was tall and had the same build as Gongsun Zan. It seemed that Gongsun Zan had personally come. The other was a young man with black hair. Although his face was masked, one could still tell that he was a handsome young master.
After Lu Fei pushed Liu Yu off the horse, the two men quickly changed their attack and rushed toward them. In a hurry, Lu Fei glanced at Gongsun Zan. He saw that this person was tall and sturdy, and from his forehead, he could tell that this person was also an elegant and handsome man. After Lu Fei put Liu Yu on the ground, his whole body soared into the sky and crashed into Gongsun Zan. Gongsun Zan saw that Lu Fei was extremely fast and looked as if he did not care about his life, so he was also shocked. The steel knife in his hand was aimed at Lu Fei's chest. Unexpectedly, Lu Fei did not dodge or evade. He should have taken the knife. It should be known that no matter how powerful a person's protective divine skill was, it was impossible to be invulnerable to swords and spears.
Gongsun Zan only heard a "ding" sound. His knife seemed to have stabbed into an iron plate and could not go any further. Only at this time did he realize that he had been fooled. Lu Fei had already reached out and removed the cloth covering his face. He shouted, "It's you, Gongsun Zan."
Hearing this, Liu Yu looked in the direction of Lu Fei and saw that it was indeed Gongsun Zan. He immediately became angry and said, "What do you want?"
Lu Fei called out, "You dare to assassinate Provincial Governor Daren, you are courting death." As he spoke, he pushed out his palms, aiming for Gongsun Zan's chest. Gongsun Zan had already lost the initiative, and now he was barely able to pull back an arm to block. However, his arm was broken by Lu Fei's vigorous move, "Shocking a Hundred Li", and he was sent flying while vomiting blood. Gongsun Zan was also very good. As soon as he landed, he fled towards the forest, not even caring about the young man behind him. He knew that if Lu Fei really caught him today, he would definitely die. At that time, Liu Yu would report to the imperial court that Lu Fei had killed the traitorous assassin and would be rewarded with great merit.
Seeing that Gongsun Zan had slipped away, the young man with a high level of martial arts also quickly retreated into the woods. Lu Fei secretly lamented that it was a pity. He stepped forward to help Liu Yu up and said, "Lord Liu, are you alright?"
Liu Yu's face turned pale as he said angrily, "I'm going back to capture Gongsun Zan now."
Lu Fei held Liu Yu's hand and said, "Lord Liu, I'll take you there." Finished speaking, he quickly led Liu Yu forward. It didn't take long for them to reach Zhuo County Town. Lu Fei immediately ordered people to close the town gates. At the same time, he had Zou Yuan lead a group of soldiers to the governor's mansion and surround it.
Someone knocked open the gate of the governor's mansion. Liu Yu took the lead and walked in. Lu Fei followed beside him. He saw that the governor's mansion was in a mess. Obviously, Gongsun Zan had already escaped. Only a few servants were still at a loss. Lu Fei ordered people to go around the mansion and arrest all of Gongsun Zan's advisors and martial artists. He specifically let go of Zheng Lin's fellow countryman. At the same time, he ordered people to confiscate all of Gongsun Zan's property. He kept most of it for himself and sent a lot to Liu Yu.
This time, all of Gongsun Zan's subordinates were locked up in prison. If he wanted to make a comeback, it would be even more difficult. Liu Yu stayed in Lu Fei's mansion for a few more days. Then, he set off for home. He wrote a memorial to the imperial court. This time, Lu Fei's protection of the emperor was meritorious. He requested the imperial court to appoint Lu Fei as the governor of Zhuo County. Previously, Lu Fei had given money to the ten attendants. Therefore, this time, Lu Fei's appointment was natural. Not long after, the imperial court's official seal and other things were sent over. Lu Fei was appointed as the governor of Zhuo County. He immediately sent a generous gift to the head of the ten attendants, Zhang Rang.
Lu Fei also moved from the Lu Mansion to the governor's mansion. The governor's mansion occupied a large area, two or three times larger than the Lu Mansion. Although Lu Fei moved there in name, he still lived in the Lu Mansion.
On the day of his appointment, Liu Yu sent people to congratulate him. Lu Fei even held a banquet in the governor's mansion. Han's injury was almost healed. He could also drink a few cups at the banquet. This time, there was an endless stream of people who came to congratulate him. Lu Fei didn't stop until night fell. He thought that dealing with these people was more tiring than fighting a war.
Lu Fei returned to his room and lay down. He thought about the next step of his plan. Gongsun Zan must have fled to Gongsun Du's place in Liaodong County to take refuge. He wouldn't dare to show his face for a short time. Therefore, this time it became a struggle between him and Gongsun Du. This Gongsun Du had the support of the "Northern Desert Divine Knife" Luoqiu. For the time being, he couldn't be his enemy.
As the saying goes, a new broom sweeps clean. The next day, Lu Fei changed all his team members. At the same time, he cleaned up all the corrupt officials in the counties and towns. The people applauded in unison. The momentum of support for Lu Fei was also growing. Because Lu Fei was an official, it was inconvenient for him to do business. Therefore, many of the business matters were done by Zheng Lin. With his power, Lu Fei let the blacksmith shop take root in the entire Zhuo County and then spread to the surrounding counties. In the past few months, he had contacted many governors of Youzhou and built good relations with them. Zheng Lin's progress in expanding the blacksmith shop was also much faster.
Zou Yuzhi pursed his lips and smiled. "As the governor of a county, how can you fly a kite?"
Lu Fei said, "It's good to share joy with the people. You have to deeply understand the people's suffering to be a good official."
Zou Yuzhi stepped forward and held his hand. "You are a good official."
Lu Fei nodded. "I am a good official."
The two walked out of the door hand in hand. Lu Fei bought a kite in the nearest shop. The shop owner refused to accept the money. Lu Fei forced him to give a few coins. The two walked out of the door and walked out of the city. When they passed by the county government, they saw a group of people outside. Lu Fei said, "I was wondering why I didn't see second brother. It turned out that he was here to solve the case. Let's go and have a look."
The two stood outside the government office and looked through the crowd. They saw Guan Yu sitting in the hall in his official uniform. He looked like an official.
