Lu Xuan said: "Sit down."
"Thank you, Father."
Lu Yu thanked him and sat down.
Over the past two years, Lu Yu has grown a lot taller. Although he is only over ten years old, he is very young. However, he has grown up quickly and has seen many things. He has become quite mature, and he is no longer young and immature as he just went out with Lu Xuan.
Everything in Tianzhu is more cruel than the Western Regions.
Everything about Tianzhu is more obvious to Lu Yu than the Western Region.
What he saw and heard also made people understand the hardships and difficulties in the place, which gave birth to Lu Yu's maturity.
Lu Xuan said slowly: "Since Nanjing, you have left with me. You have seen a lot, understood a lot, and become a lot more mature. This is a good thing. But no matter what, you still have to operate and execute everything. , only then can you understand the responsibility on your shoulders.”
"So, it's time for you to go back."
"Children of poor people have long been in charge of their own affairs. Children of ordinary families have already matured at your age and can already handle family affairs by themselves and shoulder the burden of the family."
"You were trained by Duke Zheng since you were young and have been studying with Duke Zheng. After that, you traveled with me and saw and heard a lot."
"Now, it's time to take your responsibility."
Lu Xuan said in a deep voice: "Next, you take Jia Xu, Jiang Ji and others, and your own team, return to the court to supervise the country. From now on, you will start supervising the country, and I will give you a while to wait for you. Once you are officially crowned an adult, I will give you the Zen position."
Lu Yu looked moved, but suddenly panicked.
His father is his greatest support.
With his father here, he doesn't need to worry about anything.
Suddenly, after hearing Lu Xuan's words, Lu Yu inevitably panicked in his heart.
Lu Yu quickly said: "Father, the court cannot do without you, and my sons and ministers cannot do without you. What's more, although my father has been fighting abroad for many years, he has not been at home most of the time. However, although my father is on the front line, The influence on the imperial court also exists.”
The court has been running smoothly, Lu Xuan is here, and everything is running normally.
Even if Lu Xuan is not in Nanjing.
Everything is stable too.
Because no one can overthrow everything Lu Xuan established.
Lu Xuan smiled softly and said: "When the court needs me, I will naturally come forward. However, every generation has its own responsibilities. My responsibility is to expand the territory."
"The management of the rear, how to make the people of the world have better and better days, and how to govern the huge Ming Dynasty. All of this needs to be left to you. This is your responsibility."
"When you are crowned when you reach adulthood, I will return to the court and crown you personally. At that time, you will ascend to the throne at the same time."
Lu Xuan confessed directly.
This matter has not been mentioned before.
Now, bring it up.
Lu Yu was also surprised and asked, "Does your father mean that you never plan to go back?"
Lu Xuan replied: "For the time being, I won't go back. And with the capture of Tianzhu, Tianzhu is rich in products, enough to supply supplies, food and everything else, unlike the barren Western Region."
At this point, Lu Xuan changed the subject and said, "So this time, you have one more thing to arrange after you go back."
Lu Yu said: "What's going on?"
Lu Xuan said: "You go back and tell your mother, let her bring all the concubines in the harem who are willing to come to Tianzhu to live in Tianzhu. If they are not willing to come, then they can stay in Nanjing. I will hand over the future development to the imperial court. I’ll give it to you and let you make your own arrangements to see if you can govern the world well.”
As soon as Lu Yu heard this, he knew that all this was true.
Father is really outside here.
Lu Yu also had great ambitions in his heart. He suppressed the anxiety in his heart and said solemnly: "Father, please rest assured that I will manage everything in the country. The Ming Dynasty will only be better if it is left in the hands of my son. It will decay.”
"That's good!"
Lu Xuan looked approvingly and said: "My Lu Xuan's son must be a tiger. He will not disgrace the Lu family, let alone let down all the people in the world."
Lu Yu bowed his hands and bowed, and said solemnly: "Father, I have to retire. I am not in Huashi City and cannot fulfill my filial piety by my father's side. Please take care of yourself, father."
Lu Xuan said: "Father knows."
Lu Yu saluted again, then turned and left.
After Lu Yu left the palace, he called Jia Xu and returned north with Jiang Ji. When Lu Yu began to return, Tianzhu's governance was undergoing rapid adjustments because of the appointment of Lu Su, Huang She, Lu Rong and Xue Zong.
Lu Yu no longer cared about this. He focused on heading north and returned directly to Xizhou.
Today's Xizhou has completely changed.
It was completely different from when Lu Yu was in Xizhou. Under Zhuge Liang's rule, the local people were in excellent spirits and in good spirits. Moreover, scholars from all over Xizhou began to preach and teach the Ming Dynasty. Language and writing.
The Ming Dynasty's Mandarin is rapidly spreading.
When Lu Yu was in charge of the city, no one could speak the Mandarin of the Ming Dynasty. They were all local languages and dialects. Only a few people could move around and be familiar with the languages of each place.
Nowadays, many local people speak Ming Dynasty Mandarin.
Although it's still a little awkward, at least I can communicate normally.
This situation shocked Lu Yu.
Zhuge Liang is so awesome.
After Lu Yu learned about it carefully, he learned that Zhuge Liang tied the Ming Dynasty Mandarin to the land. As long as those who could speak the Ming Dynasty Mandarin could get various preferential treatment after passing the assessment, the worst was to allocate land and so on. , the better ones can also hold official positions.
Lu Yu admired in his heart.
Zhuge Liang's arrangement is very exquisite.
Now that we are entering May, the weather is getting hotter and hotter. Everywhere in Xizhou is green and green. Fruits and melons are constantly being produced. Potatoes and corns are also sown.
Xizhou is a scene of great governance.
Perhaps it will take many years to reach the level of Ming Dynasty. However, Xizhou is now off to a good start.
Officials are dedicated to their work.
The people's customs are simple and honest.
This is the scene of the prosperous times.
Lu Yu took Jia Xu and others to Qiancheng, but instead of leaving directly, he went directly into the city to pay a visit. He arrived at Chang Shi's Mansion in Qiancheng, revealed his identity and wanted to see Zhuge Liang, but learned that Zhuge Liang had gone out to handle government affairs.
Lu Yu could only wait in the lobby.
Fortunately, after only waiting for half an hour, Zhuge Liang hurried back.
When Zhuge Liang saw Lu Yu, he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Zhuge Liang, pays homage to His Highness the Crown Prince."
Lu Yu quickly stood up, helped Zhuge Liang up, and said with a smile: "Brother, you and I are alienated. You learn from the teacher, and I also learn from the teacher. But I have been away from Nanjing for many years, and I don't know what happened to the teacher?"
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "When I left, the teacher was in good health and there was nothing serious. Now, the teacher is in good spirits and is still promoting the training of scholars at the Five Classics Hall. We must promote this on a large scale."
Lu Yu smiled and said: "Teacher has something to do and has hope in his heart, so he is naturally in good spirits."
The two sat down to talk and get closer.
Lu Yu then asked Zhuge Liang about the governance of Xizhou. Zhuge Liang told him every detail, everything was in his mind.
After the business talk was over, Lu Yu smiled and said: "Brother, I heard from my father that my sister-in-law has come to Qiancheng. Where is she? Now that I am here, how can I not see my sister-in-law?"
Zhuge Liang's expression remained unchanged.
He and Gu Xi fell in love at first sight. After the two settled down, they sent a letter back asking Zhuge Xuan and Gu Yong to arrange the engagement and marriage process.
After the family arrangements were completed and the letters came, the two got married in Qiancheng.
Zhuge Liang immediately called Gu Xi over.
Gu Xi was generous, raised his hands and saluted, "His Royal Highness."
Lu Yu looked eager and said: "Sister-in-law is polite, from the relationship point of view of senior brother, you are my sister-in-law. However, from the relationship of the Gu family, sister-in-law is my elder. In this kind of relationship, That's a close kiss, there's no need to see each other outside."
Gu Xi smiled sweetly and said, "The prince has destroyed the daughter of the people."
Lu Yu greeted them warmly, chatted with Zhuge Liang and Gu Xi, and asked about the time when Zhuge Liang and Gu Xi would get married. He also said that if he had time in the future, he would attend Zhuge Liang's wedding and witness their marriage.
Lu Yudu did not mention official matters, but mainly focused on getting closer to personal relationships.
In the evening, the family had dinner together again.
Lu Yu rested all night, and said goodbye to Zhuge Liang early the next morning.
Zhuge Liang took Gu Xi and personally delivered Lu Yu, Jia Xu, Jiang Ji and others to the gate of Dongcheng before watching Lu Yu leave.
When Lu Yu walked away, Gu Xi smiled and said: "Kong Ming, I met the prince after he was born. But soon, the prince left. Now when I see him again, he is so big, and his bearing is very impressive. Mature. The key is that the prince's words and deeds are well-organized, making people very close to him. This prince is not bad at all."
Zhuge Liang smiled and said: "It is naturally different for someone who was trained by His Majesty himself and who was trained by the teacher for several years. The key is that the prince can be relaxed and courteous to the corporal."
"As the king of a country, you can be disrespectful to the virtuous and corporal, and you can be superior to others."
"But he can relax his posture."
"And it's sincere."
"Such a sincere prince. In addition, he is outstanding in learning, speaks and behaves well, is very smart, and has his own vision. Such a prince is a blessing to the Ming Dynasty and a blessing to the people."
Zhuge Liang looked in admiration.
He also has his own judgment when looking at people. Zhuge Liang can tell at a glance whether Lu Yu is really talking perfunctorily or sincerely.
Lu Yu made him very satisfied.
This junior brother and nephew is indeed good.
"Let's go back, let's go back."
Zhuge Liang directly took Gu Xi's hand and said with a smile: "I was busy with the local inspection yesterday, so I have a little free time for the time being. Today, I will go shopping with you."
"good!"
Gu Xi also smiled.
With a happy smile on her face, she returned to the city with Zhuge Liang.
