Lu Fubao was unparalleled in elegance, with impeccable appearance and bearing, and the demeanor of a mother-of-the-nation.
For a time, the patriarchs of the five major families were stunned!
Lu Zhi was the first to react and immediately knelt down to salute.
"My lord, Lu Zhi of Zhuo County, pays homage to the Queen!"
Although Zhang Xutuo, Dou Wangsun, Yin Junling and Kou Ziyi responded slowly, their respectful attitude was not inferior to that of Lu Zhi, and they immediately bowed their heads and bowed.
On the imperial steps, Lu Fubao was unfazed by favors and humiliations.
She raised her head slightly and looked down at the five people below, with an absolutely confident smile on her beautiful face.
When the ceremony was completed, Lu Fubao's clear and resonant voice echoed in the Jinluan Hall.
"My dear friends, stay safe."
Just a few words, a superior's affirmation of the loyalty of his subordinates, and a natural command tone.
The five clan leaders were shocked!
The Empress of the Jin Dynasty has such a powerful aura that the five of them felt in awe after meeting her for the first time!
And this is exactly the effect Lu Fubao wants.
She stands here not only on behalf of herself, but also on behalf of her husband Fan Li and the supreme authority of the emperor of the Jin Dynasty.
There is order between superiority and inferiority!
The five clan leaders gradually began to sweat.
They suddenly regretted that it was disrespectful for them to enter the capital without following the order.
Breaking into the palace gate by force is even worse.
If the Empress is blamed, how will the five major families survive in the Jin Dynasty in the future?
They have left the homeland of the Han Dynasty. If they abandon the Jin Dynasty again, there will be no place for them in the world from now on.
"Why did these beloved ladies come to the palace?" Lu Fubao asked with a smile as if he didn't know the purpose of the three people's visit.
"this……"
Lu Zhi and others had sweat on their foreheads.
They had no selfish motives. They were just worried that the emperor would leave the court and the country would be in turmoil, so they came in a hurry with the idea of helping the country.
But now, it seems that my worries are unfounded?
No!
This is by no means an unfounded worry!
Although the Empress is astonishingly talented and knowledgeable, all the adults in the court also perform their duties and work diligently.
However, the imperial court of the Jin Dynasty was empty, the country was in a period of development, and there were so many things and industries waiting to be developed. How could it be managed by just a few people?
Five major families want to take charge of the government!
This is not to seize the class and seize power. As the day goes by, they are dedicated to serving the public good!
"Your Majesty, I'm waiting for you to come here this time..."
Halfway through Lu Zhi's words, eunuch Qin Shun's voice suddenly came from behind him.
"Reporting to the Queen, the father-in-law is here."
The five clan leaders were stunned when they heard this.
Father of the country?
This is not an official position.
As the saying goes, father is more important than daughter. The father-in-law of the state is the father-in-law of the emperor and the father of the empress. Although he is noble, he is not considered an official after all. The Jinluan Palace is a place where major national affairs are discussed. If the royal family and relatives come here rashly, isn't it a waste of time to discuss national affairs?
As soon as this idea came to Lu Zhi's mind, he suddenly remembered something.
The old man screamed!
"The...Guo Zhang...could it be...!!??"
The shock today was so great that they could only remember that the Queen was his daughter!
"Father!"
On the imperial steps, Lu Fubao's voice was full of joy.
She moved lightly, walked down the steps quickly, and walked in the direction of the person.
The five clan leaders also looked in the direction of the Queen and saw an old man.
He came out of the dust in white clothes, like a reclusive immortal.
His eyes are deep, revealing wisdom, erudition and cultivation that transcend the ordinary world.
The smile seems to carry eternal warmth and care, like a loving elder, and everyone in the world is his caring and caring junior.
"Father, you are here."
Lu Fubao stood in front of the old man and bowed down.
"The daughter pays homage to her father."
If he hadn't been in the Jinluan Palace, Lu Fubao wouldn't have been so formal. He would have shouted "Daddy" and thrown himself into Lu Chunqiu's arms.
"Hehehe." Lu Chunqiu said with a smile: "Being a queen is really impressive. It's worth my father's careful teachings to you for many years."
"Husband... Your Majesty is not in court, so please ask your father to support your daughter." Lu Fubao said again.
"It should, it should."
Lu Chunqiu said, looking at the five people in the Jinluan Palace.
The five chiefs of the clan were all standing, but after meeting Lu Chunqiu's gaze, they all bowed down without exception!
"teacher!"
It turned out that Lu Zhi and other five people had gone to Lucheng to study, but due to various reasons, none of them stayed and became one of Lu Chunqiu's three thousand disciples.
Even so, they did study Lu's Confucianism and benefited a lot from it.
Among the five patriarchs, Lu Zhi has the highest level of Confucianism, and he has always regarded himself as Lu Chunqiu's disciple!
"oh?"
Lu Chunqiu smiled and nodded, but said nothing.
He casually took the memorial that Lu Fubao had just reviewed from his hand, like a private school teacher checking the students' homework.
Lu Chunqiu watched carefully, and the five clan leaders held their breaths for fear of disturbing him.
"well!"
Lu Zhi lamented in his heart.
"Decades have passed since I studied in Lucheng. My teachers are so famous all over the world, how can I still remember me, a mediocre student?"
He also recalled that Confucianism in this world all regards "carrying on the unique knowledge to the saints, establishing a destiny for the people, and creating peace for all generations" as the highest goal of life.
However, the Han Dynasty, which he had carefully assisted, had long since passed away.
"As a disciple, you cannot leave the slightest impression in the teacher's mind."
"As a minister, I cannot help the country and uplift the government."
"I, Lu Zhi, am known as the most popular person in the country, but my reputation is all in vain. How can I have the dignity to see my teacher today?"
Thinking of this, Lu Zhi couldn't help but burst into tears.
The other four clan leaders also had the same thoughts as Lu Zhi.
Even though they didn't shed any tears, all four of them had red eyes and felt guilty.
"Um?"
Lu Chunqiu was satisfied after reading a memorial and seeing that his daughter was handling government affairs in an orderly manner.
Suddenly I heard a whimpering sound and looked curiously.
"Ziqian, why are you crying?"
Lu Zhi was stunned when he heard this. He ignored the tears still hanging on his old face and asked in a trembling voice: "Teacher, do you still...remember the students?"
"Why don't you remember?" Lu Chunqiu said with a smile: "When I inherited the position of Marquis Wenxin and gave lectures for the first time, there were only 365 students in the class. You are not only one of them, but also the oldest one. I Naturally impressed.”
He paused briefly and then said: "Over the years, you have worked tirelessly and diligently to take care of the national affairs of the Han Dynasty. It is said to support the building when it is about to collapse, but to turn the tide before it falls. Although the end is regrettable when the manpower is exhausted, I am still proud of you as a teacher!"
"teacher!"
Lu Zhi fell to his knees on the ground, tears streaming down his face.
Since the end of the former Han Dynasty, he has been trapped in guilt and self-blame for a long time, and even thought of being buried for the Han emperor several times. If he hadn't been tied down by his family and couldn't let go of his heavy responsibilities, he might have followed Liu Xie to Jiuquan a long time ago.
Lu Chunqiu's comments went straight into Lu Zhi's heart and made him so excited that he burst into tears!
"You four are pretty good too."
Lu Chunqiu glanced at Zhang Xutuo, Dou Wangsun, Yin Junling and Kou Ziyi one by one.
"Abide by the principles of being a minister, serve the master loyally, and have the safety of the people and the country at heart. It is also an honor for me to guide you as a teacher."
The four of them were so excited that they dared not even say it!
While talking, the five clan leaders realized that there seemed to be a lot of people standing outside Jinluan Hall?
Everyone outside the hall looked like a Confucian scholar from E Guan Bo.
Some of them even look familiar; they are famous Confucian scholars in the world!
The five clan leaders have either made friends with them before, or have heard of their names for a long time.
And without exception, these Confucian scholars are all disciples of Lu Chunqiu!
"Teacher, what do you mean by your sudden visit to Dajin?" Zhang Xutuo asked in surprise.
Judging from this posture, it doesn't look like he is simply visiting his daughter.
"Oh, I'm sending someone here for His Majesty."
Lu Chunqiu replied in a half-joking tone.
"Speaking of which, we are now ministers of the same court."
"As a teacher, I led seventy-one people from Lucheng to come to Jin Dynasty to serve as officials in the court to fill the vacancies of officials in various ministries and offices."
When the five people heard this, their faces were full of shock!
Everyone knows that Lu Chunqiu had three thousand disciples, including seventy-two who were direct disciples of great Confucianism.
Except for Yan Yuan's death, the other seventy-one people were also successful in their studies, but had not yet been officially assigned to any dynasty as officials.
Due to the talents, learning and cultivation of these seventy-one people, all countries in the world are willing to support them with high officials and generous salaries.
Dajin?
One country has seventy-one sages?
In this way, how can Dajin still be a small country with only two cities?
Within a few years, I am afraid that I will be able to compete with other countries in the world!
The five clan leaders were shocked!
The last trace of worries about Da Jin in their hearts completely disappeared!
Today's Dajin has unlimited potential, the only thing missing is time.
However, the Jin Dynasty was located in the Nanling Mountains, and it was far away from the Central Plains.
There is also plenty of time.
Seeing the changes in the expressions of the five clan leaders, Lu Chunqiu and his daughter exchanged glances with each other.
This time, Lu Chunqiu came specially to support Fan Li.
Defending against foreign enemies is one thing, but stabilizing people's hearts is even more crucial.
As the foundation of the population and talent for the development of the Jin Dynasty, the five major families cannot change at any time, even if Fan Li, the emperor of the Jin Dynasty, is kidnapped!
"Teacher, the disciples were rude and committed a serious crime..."
Lu Zhi said and knelt down in front of Lu Fubao.
The other four people also knelt down one after another to apologize.
Seeing this, Lu Fubao finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Dad took action personally, and the effect was indeed much better than pretending.
"My beloved ministers care about the country. What crime are they guilty of?"
Lu Fubao was about to say a few words of comfort to completely calm the restlessness of the five families and calm their hearts.
It happened that at this time, a three-year-old girl came out of the back hall with cute and wobbly steps, and opened her pink hands towards Lu Fubao.
"Mom, give me a hug. Chan'er wants a hug."
Lu Chunqiu doesn't know about Diao Chan!
Although he accepted the fact that his daughter left Dachu and became Fan Li's wife, he was still struggling in his heart.
Without three matchmakers, six betrothals, eight sedans, and ten miles of red makeup, the daughter of his dignified Marquis Wenxin got married like this?
Although in the face of great right and wrong, Lu Chunqiu will always support his daughter and the man her daughter loves.
However, what needs to be made up must be made up for!
Lu Chunqiu happily came to Dajin to support Fan Li, and planned to make up for Lu Fubao's wedding when he came back.
But looking at the pink little girl in front of him, Lu Chunqiu felt extremely complicated!
"Have all my blessed babies given birth to little lucky babies?"
"I actually don't know this?"
"Fan Li, I don't care whether you are a powerful minister or the emperor, you can't live without my father-in-law in your eyes!"
The computer has just been repaired, so I can make do with one more chapter of 3,000 words.
By the way, all you have to do is like the pictures and videos I post on Douyin, but you actually collect them in various ways...? ? ?
