Fortunately, Lin Tongxi stopped him in time, saying that Lu Fengyu would be punished soon and asked Old Wu to stay calm.
Only then did Old Wu calm down, and then turned his anger into passion and focused on cooking.
When Old Wu served the food, Lin Tongxi discovered that his [Chef Aura] had suddenly upgraded from lv.6 to lv.7.
Anger makes people grow, it seems that this sentence is true.
After dinner, Su Ruoxue's banquet had already begun.
After Lu Fengyu walked in, many gentry in Qixia Inn greeted him.
Yan Chenghong and Su Ruoxue came over and greeted Lu Fengyu: "County Magistrate."
Hearing so many people complimenting him, especially Chen Yunxuan's former subordinates, Lu Fengyu was very pleased. He nodded slightly and said "hmm".
When the shopkeeper Yu Motang saw the arrival of his most important guest, he quickly welcomed Lu Fengyu to the main seat: "Sir, please take a seat."
Then, Shopkeeper Yu turned around and shouted to the waiter, "The county magistrate has arrived, hurry up and serve the food!"
After hearing this, the waiter quickly brought the dishes over.
Lu Fengyu sat in the main seat and waved his hand to signal everyone to sit down.
Everyone sat down without making any other moves, waiting for Lu Fengyu to start eating.
"Everyone, please start eating. No need to wait for me." Lu Fengyu smiled, but still no one moved.
Seeing this, Lu Fengyu was secretly happy, and then he was the first to pick up the food with chopsticks.
Only after the county magistrate started eating did everyone else start to move.
After eating for a while, Yan Chenghong raised his glass and said, "Come, let's toast to the county magistrate. Let's work together to build a better Guangyang County!"
"Good!" Everyone cheered and stood up to raise their glasses.
"My Lord County Magistrate, I heard that you are going to be promoted. Please support us when the time comes." Yan Chenghong toasted him with a glass much lower than Lu Fengyu's.
…
As the sun set, Du Wuchen closed the grocery store he ran and prepared to go home.
Since moving to Guangyang County, he has changed his name and is now called Chen Youdu.
Somehow, he always felt that something was wrong, as if someone was following him.
He turned his head, but found nothing happened.
"Is it an illusion..." Du Wuchen looked around carefully, but still found nothing.
Now that he has reached a cooperation with the county magistrate Lu Fengyu, his actions should not arouse any suspicion.
Apart from the fact that Zhao Erfu was too stupid and implicated him last time, he should not have left any clues.
After confirming again and again that there was no movement around, Du Wuchen took several detours before returning to the mansion.
As soon as he opened the door, he felt a sharp pain in his neck, as if a needle was piercing his neck.
"Who!" Du Wuchen shouted, and then he found that his limbs were weak.
"Du Wuchen, we finally found you!" Ding Hanling, wearing a mask, walked out, and then she and Shen Xingyao tied up Du Wuchen.
At the same time, disciples from Chengtian Academy also brought people to bring Madam Du out.
On the other side, Yue Lingyun followed Xiaojiu's instructions and led people from the five major martial arts schools to attack the Pan family.
The strongest fighter of the Pan family tried to stop them, but was shot to death by Yue Lingyun.
Xiaojiu led his men into the yard and found Pan Jiarong whipping a White Tiger woman with a whip.
"Who disturbed my fun?" Pan Jiarong noticed the commotion and roared at the people around him.
Xiaojiu couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he sneaked over and subdued Pan Jiarong.
…
After three rounds of drinks, Lu Fengyu was still drinking. This was the happiest drinking time he had ever had.
"Get out of here! I have something important to report to Magistrate Lu!" a servant of the Pan family roared.
"No! I said you won't be allowed in, and that means you won't be allowed in. You're just a servant, how dare you see Lord Lu?" The officer drew his sword and threatened the servant.
The other officers heard what had happened and reported it to Ye Moqing.
Ye Moqing immediately came out and asked the Pan family servant: "What's the matter? Tell this chief clerk."
"No! I must meet Magistrate Lu in person!" shouted the Pan family servant.
"Heh! I think you're itching for trouble. Someone, come here! Hold him down for me!" Ye Moqing said sternly.
Not long after the Pan family servants were subdued, another group of Pan family members rushed over and stormed the Qixia Inn without saying a word, trying to make a bigger fuss.
Lu Fengyu also noticed the movement outside the door and became alert: "What's going on outside! Pan Yue, go and take a look!"
"Come here! Take action!" Yan Chenghong gave an order, and the officials from Guangyang County and the Ruihe Town merchant team immediately appeared.
"Yan Chenghong, what do you want to do! I am the county magistrate!" Lu Fengyu regained his ferocious look and said gritting his teeth.
At this moment, he heard a familiar voice: "Lord Lu, if I remember correctly, there is a word 'acting' in front of your title of county magistrate!"
This voice...could it be...
Lin Tongxi stood up and snapped his fingers familiarly.
"Lin Tongxi? You are still alive!" Lu Fengyu couldn't believe his eyes and even began to think that it was an illusion.
"Tsk tsk, you're disappointed, right? I'm disappointed too. After all, I just came here to catch you now!" Lin Tongxi clenched his fists angrily.
"Hmph! So what if you're alive? The worst that can happen is that I'll kill you again!" Lu Fengyu was about to take action, but found that his limbs seemed to be sealed and he couldn't use any strength.
Lu Fengyu recalled the drinks just now. Could it be that they had done something here?
"Lord Lu, you should be asking 'did you tamper with the wine' now, right?" Lin Tongxi raised the corner of his mouth.
"You... are despicable and shameless!" Lu Fengyu tried to use more force, but failed to do so.
A young girl stood up and pointed at Lu Fengyu's nose and cursed: "Despicable? Lu Fengyu, when you burned and slaughtered our Pushou Village, did you ever think of your despicable and shameless nature?"
"Your Pushou Village... there are actually still survivors?" Lu Fengyu couldn't believe it.
Lin Tongxi clapped his hands, urging the real protagonist to come on stage: "Alright, stop dawdling, it's time for the grand finale!"
After saying that, several of Lu Fengyu's confidants were thrown out.
Seeing the familiar face, Yan Chenghong and others immediately saluted.
"Greetings, His Excellency the County Magistrate!"
