Wu State, Songjing, Wangcheng, Yangci Palace.
The Qi of the move has nourished the body, and now Mrs. Mingji has been the queen mother for two months. Her face has become a bit rounder, and she looks graceful and elegant.
After listening to Wu Wang Ke Tu's words, Queen Mother Mingji calmly asked: "Tu'er, what kind of person do you think Lu Wu is?"
Wu Wang Ketu thought for a while and said: "My child originally felt very sure, but now I am not sure. Originally my child thought that Lu Wu was violent, brave, and probably a little afraid of trouble. Investigate this person's past, He should be relatively lazy and uninterested in power. But now the intelligence brought back by Sun Ben says that this man is very scheming and sinister - I really can't be sure what General Lu's temperament is now."
King Wu Ketu attached great importance to Lu Wu, and he sent Sun Ben, Jiang Min and others. Sun Ben returned to Wu with Tang Chi this time. The first thing he did was to report to King Wu that Lu Wu was in Zhenjiang Prefecture. What you do.
If Lu Wu seized the military power, it would be nothing more than a coincidence. If it were a deliberate move, even Ke Tu would be shocked by such scheming.
If the Luwu feudal state was allowed to become powerful, Ketu was really worried about whether it would backfire on the Wu state in the future.
Queen Mother Mingji nodded and asked: "Lu Wuqiang, or Chu Guoqiang?"
"Of course it's Chu Guoqiang." Ke Tu replied without hesitation.
Although the military generals are powerful, how can they compare with Chu, one of the five powerful countries in the Central Plains?
Queen Mother Mingji asked again: "Will Chu State allow Lu Wu to establish a feudal state in Zhenjiang Prefecture?"
"Absolutely not. This is the heart of the Chu Kingdom. It must be eliminated, otherwise it will become a big trouble." Ke Tu nodded, suddenly realizing.
No matter whether Lu Wu turns back against Wu or not, he must first face Chu's all-out attack at almost any cost. If in this case he can still free his hands and cross the river to attack Wu - pigs are not that stupid. Okay?
Moreover, the Luwu state was granted by himself, so it was naturally a vassal state of the Wu state. After three or five generations, it would be nothing more. If Luwu was still alive and directly attacked the Wu state, it would be ungrateful to the extreme, and the destruction of etiquette would be worse than that of the Qin state. An undeclared war is much more serious. You can contact other countries to fight it together.
As for waiting until three or five generations later?
Ke Tu couldn't believe that Lu Wu's descendants could be so tyrannical for generations. Moreover, in Zhenjiang Prefecture, whether Lu Wufeng can survive for one generation under the pressure of Chu State is a big question, and there may not be a chance for three or five generations.
"Then I will go to court tomorrow and send someone to confer Lu Wu as the Bo of Zhenjiang?" King Wu Ketu said.
"Well, but what do you plan to do with Lu Wu's position as the Jinwu doctor of the Wu Kingdom?" Queen Mother Mingji asked.
"Of course it was cancelled."
"But I heard that the Lu family has invested a lot in developing the fiefdom."
"Mother, if Lu Wu is the uncle, retaining the position of Jinwu doctor is not a reward for General Lu, but an insult." Wu Wang Ketu defended.
"Haha, General Lu can actually make his own choice in this matter. Maybe General Lu doesn't actually want to be a uncle?" Queen Mother Mingji said.
Queen Mother Mingji had a very good impression of Lu Wu. When she was almost in despair, it was Lu Wu's magic soldiers who descended from the sky and made the impossible possible, saving her from the abyss and allowing Tu'er to ascend to the throne of King Wu.
As for later, when she revealed that she wanted to marry Lu Wu, Lu Wu ran away immediately. Queen Mother Mingji was angry for a few days and laughed it off - as long as she thought that Lu Wu was only fifteen years old, Queen Mother Mingji thought it was a child. The willfulness of children.
At such an age and with such abilities, it is understandable that he would be willful.
Therefore, although the royal power comes first, it would be too extravagant to talk about friendship, but now that Tu'er has secured the throne, she is willing to make some efforts for Lu Wu.
What's more, she deeply resented Chu for intervening in the Wu Kingdom's struggle for the throne, resulting in her husband being assassinated. The more Lu Wu caused trouble in Chu, the happier she became.
"That's fine, mother. I plan to order Lu Jinhe to accompany Feng Bo's delegation to Zhenjiang Mansion. What does mother think?"
"No!" Queen Mother Mingji stopped.
Ketu was a little confused. He originally thought this was a good move. It would allow Lu Wu to satisfy his vanity - to be granted the title of uncle in front of his father. This was a matter of honoring the ancestors and defeating the ancestors. Comparing one's feelings with others, if he ascended the throne King Wu, if my father could live to watch the ceremony, I would have no regrets.
Of course, if his father were alive, it would not be his turn to ascend to the throne of King Wu.
"Instead of ordering Lu Jinhe to go, it would be better to ask his mother, Lu Chang, to go."
Originally, the daughter of my sister's family, Gouchen, was to be betrothed to Lu Wu, but now that Lu Wu wants to be granted the title of uncle, the status of my sister's daughter is somewhat unworthy of Lu Wu.
But the words that were said out loud caused the Queen Mother Mingji to go back on her word, and she was a little worried about it, so she had to ask Mrs. Lu Chang to help her turn around.
"Mom is still considerate." Ke Tu praised.
He didn't know what his mother had in mind. He just thought that Lu Wu had a strong heart and there might be conflicts between father and son. If the woman had a softer temper, sending Lu Wu's mother would at least prevent conflicts.

Nanhe Prefecture, Luwu Army.
Lu Wu ordered the army to be organized for three days.
On the first day, the entire army was rewarded based on merit to boost morale; on the second day, prisoners of war were screened, surrendered troops were recruited, and lists were compiled; on the third day, the cavalry brigade was reorganized to replenish the cavalry brigade that had suffered heavy casualties.
These have their own military chiefs and various ministries in charge. Lu Wu only needs to ask Jin Ju and others to inspect them and select some people to ask questions. There is no need to do everything personally.
Lu Wu himself went to the soldiers' camp and talked with the soldiers.
"General, I'll tell you the truth, I have never been loved by my parents at home. If I retire in the future, they will definitely not be willing to share half of my family property, and I might even be killed." A soldier complained.
"Just because you have retired does not mean that I will not care about you. Lu has no foundation in Nanhe Prefecture. You people are Lu's foundation. Lu still expects you to stabilize the entire Nanhe Prefecture for Lu. Naturally you will not Let you go home alone to face the clan forces - then anyone who feels that the situation is not good can apply for a team of people to escort them."
"In the future, Mr. Lu will set up a retired military service department to specifically support retired sergeants."
Lu Wu smiled and couldn't tell that he had regarded these people as cannon fodder and consumables the day before yesterday - his five military regulations were also forced out by Jiang Chen.
However, after issuing these five military regulations, Lu Wu looked back and thought - there are all talents in the personal barracks. Wouldn't it be a waste if they were all used as cannon fodder?
These days, more than 99% of people are illiterate. It is not easy to find so many educated people.
I didn't think of using these people before because these people are naturally on the opposite side of me. Now with these five rules, I can use these people for my own purposes.
That's why Lu Wu went to the barracks today.
