"Is it him?"

"It turns out that he has been silent these past few days and is actually thinking about such kind words?"

"Let me just say that this person has a traitorous streak in his life. He used to take refuge with Sun Quan just by leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade. Now that he sees the strength of the New Han Dynasty, he may want to defect again!"

"I wonder what the Soochow Sun family will think?"

People around him were talking in low voices.

Among them, there are mostly all kinds of harsh words.

But Lu Su looked solemn, as if he turned a deaf ear to those people's words.

"Your Majesty, this Lu Su is not taking things easy."

Kong Ming covered his face with a feather fan and whispered into Liu Xian's ear.

"Oh? Does it mean that sir knows this person?"

Liu Xian frowned slightly.

Zhuge Liang replied calmly: "Not really, I just heard my brother mention it before.

If we talk about the heroes in Jiangdong, the leader of the military generals must be Zhou Gongjin; the leader of the civil servants must be the veteran Zhang Zhao. However... the one who will lead the officials in the future must be Lu Su and Lu Zijing!"

As Liu Xian knew, Zhuge Kongming had a high opinion of Lu Su.

only.

Why did Lu Su suddenly say this when he was loyal to the Sun family of Soochow?

Could it be...

Liu Xian had to be on guard.

However, the politeness on the surface is still due: "Mr. Lu Su is ridiculously complimentary. In this case, sir, are you willing to hang around for a few more days and get to know more about me as a new Han?"

"If Your Majesty says this, Lu Su will bother you."

Lu Su looked happy.

Liu Xian didn't know the other party's purpose, so it was better to keep this person first.

At the same time, he also intended to make friends with this person.

He knew that although Zhuge Liang in history was also resourceful, he was not as evil as in the novel. Therefore, a counselor like Lu Su naturally had his own uniqueness.

It would be great if he could be brought under his command!

In the next few days, Liu Xian no longer stayed in Wenwen Township, but lived with Lu Su.

After in-depth exchanges, both parties also gained a quite detailed understanding.

First of all, Liu Xian was very surprised by Lu Su.

This person can be said to have both civil and military skills. In the words of later generations, he was fully developed morally, intellectually, physically, aesthetically and physically.

He was born in an ordinary noble family, and his life experience was miserable when he was young. He lost his father early and was raised by his grandmother.

Although they are considered to be members of the gentry, they are still living in a feudal society.

If the male breadwinner of the family is gone, it is almost equivalent to losing the only support. Even if they are of the same clan, the fate of orphans and widowed mothers is most likely to be wiped out.

Therefore, Lu Su's childhood was not a good one.

That's just living under someone else's roof and watching their looks.

But he has a tall body and a bold personality. He has been diligent and studious since he was a child. He has read a lot of poetry and books. He has also practiced martial arts and has first-class riding and shooting skills.

At that time, the imperial court was mediocre, officials were corrupt, society was in turmoil, and the people were in dire straits.

Lu Su then spent his own money to recruit young people from the countryside to train in military and martial arts.

At the same time, he also acted righteously and helped the poor, which earned him the admiration of his fellow villagers.

Of course.

These are not what Lu Su said himself, but they were learned by someone who sent people to visit Lu Su’s hometown during the period of his association with Lu Su.

Such a person is really good.

The more Liu Xian looked at him, the more he admired him!

But as the relationship deepened, he found that he had no way of starting.

Lu Su seemed to have really come to study and inspect. He had a thorough understanding of the systems and people's livelihood in various places. If there was anything he didn't understand, he would ask Liu Xian carefully.

Although, his acceptance ability is not very good.

For some novel things, it often takes a long time to think about it before you can understand its meaning.

But after all, he is one of the best counselors in Jiangdong. He can even guess something.

In short, when he understood it, he praised Liu Xian's political methods.

This day.

The two of them passed a village on horseback.

It was Chen time, and several children in simple clothes were laughing and playing together, very happy.

The morning glow shone on their faces, making their smiles seem a little brighter.

"Goudan, run! If you're late, you'll be late for class. If you're late, you'll get slapped on the palm by your teacher!"

"That's right, hurry up!"

The children trotted along, apparently not noticing that the man riding a tall horse beside them was their lord and majesty.

Too.

Liu Xian and Lu Su traveled in plainclothes.

I've been wandering around for days, looking like I'm tired of all the travel.

Looking at it, there is no appearance of a monarch. He looks like a traveler in a hurry.

…

The children drifted away, but the content of their conversation caught Lu Su's attention: "Your Majesty, can these country children also go to school?"

"Yes. What I implement here is compulsory education."

Liu Xian blurted out.

"compulsory education?"

Another new vocabulary.

"Children over the age of twelve in Fan School must go to school to learn literacy and numeracy for four years. All the expenses are borne by the finance."

Liu Xian said calmly.

It's like saying something ordinary and inconspicuous.

But when Lu Su heard it, it was as shocking as thunder striking his ears.

"this……"

He opened his mouth, but no words came out.

Liu Xian frowned slightly: "What, why not?"

Lu Su did not speak, but remained silent for a long time.

Suddenly, he turned over and dismounted.

Kneeling down on one knee, he saluted Liu Xian: "Your Majesty has both political integrity and talent, which is indeed rare in the world. On behalf of those village boys, I thank you, Your Majesty!"

The mountain wind blows, blowing their clothes.

Under the morning glow, they looked like a wonderful painting.

"oh?"

Lu Su's behavior made Liu Xian look a little confused.

He didn't know what Lu Su meant by doing this.

"To be honest..."

Lu Su stood up and told Liu Xian his life experience.

In fact, Liu Xian already knew his origin. But it was because of this that Liu Xian chose to use this method to subdue him.

This was the countermeasure he decided on after long discussions with Zhuge Liang, Xun Yu and others.

After all, it would be very difficult for them to impress Lu Su in other ways.

But starting from this aspect, Lu Su will definitely be persuaded.

Of course, this kind of people cannot force things, they must do it step by step.

And what Liu Xian is doing now is actually sowing seeds in Lu Su's heart. When it will sprout will depend on the fate of the future.

That’s right!

Including those children just now, all were arranged by Liu Xian.

It was just to let Lu Su see a beautiful pastoral picture of people living and working in peace and contentment, so that he could think of his own situation and have a good impression of Liu Xian in his heart.

It's a pity that Lu Su was still in the dark and had no idea that he had fallen into Liu Xian's trap.

However, Liu Xian did not lie.

What they, Xinhan, implemented was indeed compulsory education, and they only gradually started to promote it after they became really strong recently.
