012
Lu Qing's threat was still effective. Not everyone had the confidence of the Gongsun family.
Therefore, on the second day, county governors, county magistrates, and others began to come looking for them. They were willing to give up their military power in order to keep their positions.
After all, in this era where the Han Dynasty had less control over the local areas, if there was a tough provincial governor, they could really destroy their families.
However, what these county governors and provincial governors did not know was that with the beginning of the Yellow Turban Rebellion, the era of the Prefecture Overseer was about to arrive.
At that time, the Prefecture Overseer would be the true local emperor, and he could even call himself a vassal state.
While Youzhou was in chaos because of Lu Qing's actions, he himself came to Zhuo County.
The purpose of coming here was, of course, for Zhang Fei and Guan Yu. Lu Qing was naturally drooling over these two top generals of the Eastern Han Dynasty.
Furthermore, as a modern person, he knew more about the legends of these two people. Now that he had the chance to intercept Liu Bei, he would not miss such a good opportunity.
It was worth mentioning that Lu Qing's current number one general, Zhao Yun, was Liu Bei. One had to admit that Liu Bei was capable of serving countless generals.
"Sir, Butcher Zhang's house is in front of us. In Zhuo County, he is a famous person.”
An official introduced in a low voice.
Zhang Fei's family had quite a bit of property, and because he was forthright and brave, he was very famous in Zhuo County.
Lu Qing nodded and followed the official to Zhang Fei's house.
However, at this moment, Lu Qing saw a burly man with a red face walking past him with a pole. His eyes lit up.
"Hero, wait!"
How could Lu Qing not recognize this iconic man in front of him? He thought that he would have to investigate in secret to find this person. After all, he had escaped to Zhuo County because of a murder.
However, he did not expect his luck to be so good. He found this person at the entrance of Zhang Fei's house.
"Who are you?"
Guan Yu looked at Lu Qing warily. The main reason was that Lu Qing was accompanied by officials and he was wearing a brocade robe. Guan Yu could tell at a glance that he was a big shot.
What he was worried about was that his identity as a murderer would be recognized. If that happened, it would be troublesome. After all, there were so many guards around this person. It would be difficult for him to escape.
"I'm Lu Qing. Judging from your strong physique, you're obviously a martial arts practitioner.”
Hearing Lu Qing's words, Guan Yu was stunned. With his physique, many people could tell that he was a martial artist. He just didn't expect to be recruited.
To be honest, Guan Yu was tempted. After all, in the era of the Han Dynasty, it was difficult to stand out without a background. After all, the so-called filial piety was just a method used by the aristocratic families to control the path of promotion.
Judging from Lu Qing's appearance, he had a noble status. If he could really work for him, he would indeed have a chance to realize his dream.
Just as Guan Yu was hesitating, the official beside him snorted coldly. Perhaps he was trying to curry favor with Lu Qing.
"You commoner, this is my Youzhou Provincial Governor, and you still dare to hesitate?”
Guan Yu's pupils constricted. It was actually the Provincial Governor.
"Shut up!"
Lu Qing shouted in a deep voice. He was most unaccustomed to this kind of thing that relied on one's power. The official was shocked and quickly knelt on the ground, not daring to speak.
Because of the bandit extermination, the entire Youzhou Province knew that this provincial governor held real power and was practically a local tyrant in Youzhou Province. Therefore, this official was greatly frightened by his anger.
In fact, Lu Qing himself did not realize that his every move could indeed determine the life and death of many people.
"He's right, I'm the Youzhou Provincial Governor.”
"Looking at the warrior's appearance, he must be a brave person. Clearly, he doesn't want to waste his talent, right?”
"As long as a warrior works for this provincial governor, this provincial governor can guarantee that you will be appointed as a commandant.”
Hearing this, everyone present gasped. The commandant was the highest military officer in a county.
Strictly speaking, there were eleven commanderies in Youzhou Province, which meant that eleven commanderies could be appointed.
However, due to the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the imperial court's control over the local areas had deteriorated, so many local governors controlled the military power themselves.
In other words, there were only 11 commandants in Youzhou Province! If Serenity Plains followed the standards of the other provinces, they could command at least ten thousand soldiers, or at least several thousand.
Just because he was favored by the provincial governor, he could actually soar to the sky and directly become a commandant above ten thousand people?
Everyone looked at Guan Yu with jealousy. After all, he was a commandant with a rank of two thousand! He was an equal existence to the prefect of a county.
Obviously, Guan Yu did not expect Lu Qing's recruitment to be so direct and serious. He was a commandant!
To be honest, no matter how proud Guan Yu was, he was not sure that he could become a commandant in the future. After all, in the eyes of ordinary people, a commandant was an unimaginable big shot.
In modern times, they could basically be said to be the second or third most powerful people in a city.
"Phew!"
Guan Yu took a deep breath and knelt on one knee without hesitation.
"I, Guan Yu and Guan Yunzhang, pay my respects to the Lord!”
It was very realistic! At this moment, Lu Qing finally understood that charisma was not important. Sometimes, direct benefits were more touching.
Just like now, so what if he was a provincial governor who bought an official position? As long as he was willing to give favors, there would still be countless people who would be happy to serve him.
"Hahaha! I'm like a tiger with wings!"
