Chapter 136: Rare Warmth



The four people erected three monuments in the village to commemorate their relatives and friends who died in the incident.

The tombstones were inscribed with the following characters: Pushou Villager, Guangyang County Yamen, White Tiger Clan

Lin Tongxi and Chen Yunxuan looked at the tombstone in the middle and fell silent.

It's not just Hu Wei and Qin Xin who are listed above, but also other officials with growth potential.

These officials, like Yan Chenghong, have ideals and are not stained by worldly sins.

Their conditions became worse because of this, but they were noticed by the two because of their sense of justice.

The two of them helped improve the lives of these officials and also asked Su Ruoxue and others to provide free medical treatment for their families.

Even if they get sick, they don't have to worry too much about medical expenses.

Su Ruoxue's Fuchuntang will have a discount, and the two of them will also help out with a penny.

A gentleman will die for his friend. After the betrayal of County Magistrate Lu, they chose to protect the two without hesitation.

Lin Tongxi took out a bottle of beer and four glasses from the [Item Storage] space. After filling them with beer, he handed three of them to the other three.

"I would like to offer this wine as a tribute to all the innocent people who died in Pushou Village." Chen Yunxuan took the lead in pouring the wine on the ground, and the other three followed suit.

After the memorial service, the four mounted their horses and headed for the barbarian camp.

Chen Yunxuan and Lin Tongxi rode one horse, while Shaerya and Axiu rode one horse.

"Gee--" The four of them galloped on their horses and left this sad place.

At the same time, County Magistrate Lu had also returned to Guangyang County.

The people were shocked when they saw the officer covered in blood.

"Oh my God, Lord Lu, what happened to you?" Tian Gaoyuan, who happened to be out for a walk, was frightened when he saw this scene.

County Lieutenant Lu dismounted, threw County Magistrate Lei's head to the ground, and shouted to the people, "Everyone, Lei Liquan, that bastard, colluded with bandits and caused a lot of damage to our county!"

"Lord Chen Xuan discovered this situation and led us to suppress the bandits."

"Who knew that Lei Liquan was not only connected to the bandits, but was even bribed by Yu Xianluo in the west!"

"Lord Chenxuan and Lord Tongxi were tragically murdered, and even the villagers of Pushou Village suffered at their hands!"

"If they hadn't led the officers to fight to the death, I'm afraid none of us would have been able to return!"

After Lu Fengyu finished speaking, he began to shed tears.

Tian Gaoyuan's heart started pounding when he heard this. If something happened to Lei Liquan... then wouldn't they be unable to escape either?

"Master Lu, please don't be sad anymore. The two masters have instructed... that you should live on in their place and protect the people of Guangyang County." Lu Fengyu's confidant advised Lu Fengyu.

Hearing this, Tian Gaoyuan quickly knelt down and expressed his loyalty: "Yes, Lord Lu, you are the only county magistrate in the county now. Please lead us to govern Guangyang County well and live up to the trust of the two lords!"

Upon hearing this, the other officials also knelt down and said, "Please, sir, lead us in managing Guangyang County!"

"Master Lu! Please don't be sad!" one of the people shouted, and then the other people were influenced by him and followed suit.

"In that case, I can only survive with their share." Lu Fengyu wiped his tears, then climbed onto the carriage. Standing on a high point, he shouted, "I, Lu Fengyu, will definitely live up to your trust! I will govern Guangyang County well!"

After this play was performed, Lu Fengyu's reputation had reached its peak.

Now, he has become the representative of the fight against enemy troops and bandits!

Xiaojiu in the corner watched all this while suppressing his anger and recorded what happened here.

He wanted to go up and beat Lu Fengyu up immediately, but that would obviously ruin Su Ruoxue's plan.

When he woke up in the morning, he heard from Su Ruoxue about "being wary of Lu Fengyu".

According to the speculation of Su Ruoxue and others, it should be Lu Fengyu who conspired with Lei Liquan to murder Lin Tongxi and others.

However, the reality is that Lu Fengyu directly killed Lei Liquan.

If this is really the case... then what Lu Fengyu said is worth studying.

Who is connected to Yu Xianluo in the west?

You can tell with your toes that it must be Lu Fengyu!

After Lu Fengyu returned to the government office, Xiaojiu ran back to the Lin Mansion and told Su Ruoxue and others what had just happened.

Zhu Li couldn't help but sigh: "This Lu Fengyu is so scheming. I thought he was a down-to-earth person, but I didn't expect him to be so vicious!"

"Lord Zhu, please talk to General Wen later and see if you can send someone to help us. It would be great if Mayor Yan could come." Su Ruoxue made the request.

"Well, I will ask someone to convey this to General Wen now. I'm sure the general doesn't want to see this situation." After Zhu Li finished speaking, he immediately went out to take care of the matter.

After Zhu Li died, the four continued to discuss what to do next.

"I didn't expect that Lu Fengyu even got rid of Lei Li... Before the new official takes office, Guangyang County will only obey him, right?" Ye Moqing frowned. This situation is too bad.

Su Ruoxue's expression also became serious, and she told him her plan: "Mo Qing, before you take office, try to avoid direct confrontation with Lu Fengyu.

"We must do our best to protect the people promoted by Chen Xuan. If we can't protect them and they have no source of livelihood, we will bring them to Fuchun Hall."

"Brother Lingyun, please strengthen your contact with the other pavilion owners and don't let them be deceived by Lu Fengyu."

"Xiaojiu, just continue to gather intelligence in the academy, and be careful of Lu Fengyu's nephew Lu Xiujin."

After hearing Su Ruoxue's arrangement, the three of them all said yes.

Ye and Yue have already contacted the two major forces of the government and the martial arts school, and the intelligence is collected by Xiaojiu.
