Chapter 281 Guan Fuqing and the people here

The main entrance of the county government office was filled with people and it was very noisy.

Fu Qing, the governor of Lixian County, was dressed in pure white mourning clothes, with a haggard face and bloodshot eyes. He knelt at the gate of the government office with his back straight.

Outside the county government office, people were also gathered around to watch the excitement.

"Is this Guan Juncheng?"

"It's him! It's him! That lackey Jun Cheng who was pushed up by the Fang family!"

"Didn't you say that all the noble families in our county were killed by the rebels?"

"This county magistrate likes to show off. I heard that his family lives in a place where common people like us live, so he has escaped the bandit troubles."

"Let me tell you, there's nothing wrong with the Sky Thief. He's a nobleman from an aristocratic family who specializes in killing common people!"

"That's right! The Fang family and the Qin family deserve to be punished with extortionate taxes and deprived of the common people. It would be better if all of them died!"

"Why didn't this Fang family's lackey die in this banditry?"

"That's right! What a pity!"

The common people gathered like thunder and pointed at Guan Fuqing, who straightened his back and knelt at the gate of the government office to pay homage to King Lu.

The "bandit rebellion" in the city of Lixian County was due to the "timely" arrival of King Lu's reinforcements. Therefore, those "bandit troops" only had time to kill the nobles of local noble families before they were killed by the army of King Lu who entered the city later.

The local people were only frightened for one night, and were not affected at all. Naturally, they were in a mood to come out to watch the excitement and find out the news.

In this encounter with banditry, the nobles of those tyrannical families were all killed, and the people even felt faintly happy.

The common people have little information and don't know what kind of person King Lu is. They only know that seeing is believing. Even if they have heard some rumors about King Lu before, they should just treat it as lies spread by others.

King Lu led his army to personally exterminate the "rebellious bandits" raging in the county. After stationing troops at the four gates of the county, they did not do anything to disturb the people. This is not a righteous teacher. Who else can be called a righteous teacher.

As for Commander Fang and Captain Qin who died in the battle to suppress the bandits? If they die, they die! They deserve it!

These two idiots are just like the common people, and they are no worse than the legendary Sky Thief!

It would be best for King Lu to station his troops in Lixian County from now on and come to govern them in Lixian County!

Have they heard that Hexian County was recovered with the help of King Lu? What kind of happy life are the people of Hexian County living today? The merchants who come and go say that the people in their county are not as good as the people in a small county.

So 'magnificent'!

Especially the ‘Crane’! They also want ‘free installation’!

Before the arrival of King Lu’s army, there were no such earth-shaking changes in Hexian County!

Attendant Yan Yi, who was also dressed in mourning clothes and knelt at the gate of the county government with Guan Fuqing, became very angry when he heard the comments of these ignorant people. He wanted to stand up several times and argue with these people, but in the end he failed.

For fear of ruining the master's important affairs, he suppressed his anger and did not act like this.

"Master! How much have you sacrificed for these people! They..." Yanyi was furious and couldn't help but complain in a low voice. Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Guan Fuqing in front of him who spoke softly.

"As long as you are honest with your heart, you can't hurt others with your words. Yan Yi, don't worry about it." Guan Fuqing softly comforted his attendant Yan Yi who was kneeling next to him.

At this time, Guan Fuqing's eye sockets were sunken and his eyeballs were bloodshot. At first glance, it was caused by not sleeping for a long time.

The Fang family was destroyed, nearly 60% of the grain stored in the grain depot disappeared, Lixian County changed hands, and the desperation of this place was imminent.

The people were still ignorant and unprepared. They just thought this was a great good thing. Guan Fuqing felt extremely sad when he thought of this.

No matter how unkind the Fang family is, they still rely on this place to survive and will not kill them all. At this time, King Lu's army is stationed in Lixian County, and his fiefdom is not here, so how can he give up the fat in front of him?

If we forcibly loot the grain stores here and then leave, I'm afraid this place will end up like Yanzhou.

The people here have no food to eat and will become a new wave of refugees fleeing the country. The Sky Thief was not a bandit from the beginning. He was also a good citizen of Yanzhou before...

Fortunately, Guan Fuqing hid in the dark and observed for a day, and found that King Lu's soldiers did not disturb the people. Instead, they sent people to the county government to spread some things to gain a good reputation.

This shows that things have not reached the worst point yet, and King Lu may have other plans for Lixian County.

Guan Fuqing made a grand display this time and stood eye-catching at the gate of the county government office. He put up such a formation just to confirm King Lu's purpose.

He has already speculated that King Lu's actions may be because he wants to control Lixian County for a long time!

As the county magistrate of this place, he saw the opportunity and took refuge at this time. He might be able to use his broken body to protect the people of this place for a few more years.
