Everyone's eyes fell on Zhao Gui. Today's banquet, from the specifications for welcoming Lu Xuan to the arranged seats, many people noticed that it was unusual.
When Sun Ce came to attack Lujiang, Lu Xuan was in charge. In fact, Lu Xuan was still just Lu Kang's son. He only presided over the war and had no real official position. Today, Lu Kang took everyone to greet him, and Lu Xuan was seated alongside Lu Kang.
There is something mysterious about this.
Lu Xuan also watched, he didn't know the reason. But Lu Xuan was certain that if Lu Kang was here, it would be impossible to harm him.
Lu Kang looked gentle and asked: "Master Zhao, what do you have to say?"
Zhao Gui bowed and said: "Reporting to the Lord of the Palace, what I want to mention for my humble position is that the Lord of the Palace is in poor spirits. He has been overwhelmed these days and has reached the point where he cannot handle daily government affairs. There is an urgent need for someone to stand up and take charge of the overall situation."
"This time when Sun Ce came to attack, Master Xuan personally took action to destroy Sun Ce, raided Hefei, and achieved great military exploits."
"In addition, Mr. Xuan has outstanding talents and literary talents. He can be called the leader of the younger generation of scholars in Yangzhou. It would be a pity not to use such a person. I boldly suggested that Mr. Xuan take over Lujiang and serve as the prefect of Lujiang."
Zhao Gui bowed once more and said solemnly: "I have a humble heart for boxing, please give me a clear warning."
Wow! !
In the hall, all the officials were in an uproar.
The expressions on many people's faces were very surprised. Zhao Gui's words were tantamount to blatant forced marriage.
The problem is that Zhao Gui was promoted by Lu Kang and was Lu Kang's absolute confidant, so it was impossible to force him into the palace.
The only possibility is that Zhao Gui's request was given by Lu Kang.
After many officials thought about it clearly, their expressions of clarity and surprise faded away. For them, there is not much difference whether the governor of Lujiang is Lu Kang or Lu Xuan. Most of them are assistant officials, whether they are Lu Kang or Lu Xuan, they have no influence.
Lu Kang glanced around and asked, "Everyone, what do you think of Zhao Gui's proposal?"
Li Qian was the first to stand up and said: "Mr. We need people like Mr. Xuan.”
"I agree."
"I support Mr. Xuan in my humble position."
"In my humble position, I obey the Lord's arrangements."
One by one, the subordinates kept expressing their opinions. Lu Xuan can win the battle and stabilize Lujiang County. This is the most important thing.
A pleased smile appeared on Lu Kang's old face, and he ordered: "Bring up the prefect Yinshou."
The attendant immediately handed over the seal ribbon.
Lu Kang took it, handed it to Lu Xuan, and said, "Erlang, the burden of Lujiang County is in your hands."
Lu Xuan held the seal ribbon and said loudly: "Please rest assured, I will work hard to live up to my father's high expectations and your trust. I will let Lujiang County stand in Yangzhou and stand in troubled times."
"As a humble post, I would like to pay my respects to the Lord."
Zhao Gui turned around again and saluted Lu Xuan.
"Greetings to Mr. Fu."
Li Qian and other assistants all stood up and bowed to Lu Xuan.
Zhang Zhao, Zhou Yu and Zhou Tai also followed suit and saluted. The expressions on the faces of the three people were even more relaxed. Lu Kang directly delegated power and Lu Xuan successfully took charge of Lujiang. The key is that everyone agrees that this is the best result.
Lu Xuan nodded and said, "Everyone, please take a seat."
Everyone sat down again. Now that the transfer of power has been completed, the atmosphere is even more lively.
One by one, the assistants toasted to Lu Xuan.
A banquet where guests and hosts enjoy themselves.
All the guests left, and Lu Kang took Lu Xuan's hand and went to the study.
Lu Kang drank a lot of wine today, his eyes were blurry, his old wrinkled face was a little red, he was swaying when he walked, and he already looked tipsy.
Lu Xuan was afraid that Lu Kang would fall, so he always supported Lu Kang from the hall to the study.
In the study, the two of them sat down.
Lu Kang had a look of joy on his face and said nonchalantly: "Erlang, I was most worried about you before, because I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to withstand the pressure and support the Lu family. I'm getting older, and I may not be able to tell one day. You may die and be unable to get up after falling asleep.”
"But the Lu family needs someone to inherit it."
"The Lu family needs someone to lead them."
"Before, you were always at home, never leaving the door or taking a step forward. You were just like a woman in a boudoir. I was worried every day. On the one hand, I was worried about irritating you, and on the other hand, I was thinking about how to make you better."
"I didn't expect that you suddenly returned to normal. It's great."
Lu Kang spoke in a rambling manner, and the concern in his words was beyond words. Lu Xuan could also feel the pressure that Lu Kang was under before.
Lu Xuandao: "Don't worry, father, I will take care of everything."
Lu Kang continued: "You are talented in literature and military, and you have the prestige to convince everyone. Moreover, Zhang Zhao and Zhou Yu are willing to obey. Even a proud man like your brother-in-law Gu Yong stayed in the local post in Lujiang County because of you. . All this is because of you. Now that you are here, I feel relieved."
Lu Xuan said modestly: "All of these are due to my father's good teaching."
Lu Kang shook his head and said: "I have been busy with official duties, so I don't have much time to teach you. You have to read and understand by yourself. Now, if I don't worry about government affairs, there is only one thing."
Lu Xuan said: "Father, please tell me."
Lu Kang's somewhat cloudy eyes suddenly brightened up, and he said: "The descendants of the Lu family are never prosperous, which is a big problem. I am already over sixty, and I will be seventy in two or three years. You don’t have a single direct grandson, how desolate it is?”
"Your kid is getting married. You need to hurry up and have a baby as soon as possible. Have more babies."
"Look at me, I gave birth to your little brother Lu Ji when I was over sixty years old. You and I have to learn more about this. You stay at home, spend time with Da Qiao, and have more children."
Lu Kang said expectantly: "I had this wish before I died. Can you satisfy it?"
Lu Xuan comforted: "Father's wish will definitely come true. There are no major problems with your body, just minor problems. You will live a long life. I am young and I don't know how to teach children. I have to You can teach it yourself."
Lu Kang grinned and said happily: "I have no problem teaching my children."
Lu Xuandao: "That's right."
Lu Kang waved his hand impatiently and said: "Okay, I have nothing to say, you go back. You have been away from Shu County for such a long time, so go back and accompany Da Qiao. You go to Hefei to raid, this girl is worried enough. In addition, I will give you another book, go back and study it carefully."
As he spoke, Lu Kang took out a book with a dark cover and poor paper, and placed it in Lu Xuan's hands.
"Let's go back."
Lu Kang waved his hand again.
Lu Xuan took the book, bowed to Lu Kang, and walked out of the study.
He walked to the door of the yard and opened a page at random, with a surprised look in his eyes. This is a forbidden book, an action book that specifically talks about many techniques on the bed. The page he saw clearly showed Guanyin sitting on a lotus.
Lu Xuan closed the book and smiled softly.
The old father really tried his best to have a grandson. To him, this thing was simply child's play.
He once carefully observed the movements of the teachers, and they were vivid and far beyond such a little book.
Lu Xuan took the book and went to the door of his yard. When Lu Xuan walked to the door, suddenly, a pretty and delicate woman appeared in front of Lu Xuan and said with a smile: "Brother-in-law, you are finally back."
Lu Xuan laughed and asked, "Xiao Qiao, why are you here?"
Xiao Qiao looked a little resentful and said, "Brother-in-law, I'm here to accompany my sister. Don't you like it?"
"luv't."
Lu Xuan answered with a smile.
Naturally, it is good to keep a stunning beauty by your side.
Xiao Qiao turned her eyes and saw the book in Lu Xuan's hand. She grabbed it and said, "Brother-in-law, what book are you holding? Is it a new poetry book? Let me take a look."
Without waiting for Lu Xuan to speak, Xiao Qiao turned to a page.
