Cao Chao's letter made Lu Kang extremely confused.

It's different from what Lu Kang thought.

Cao Chao's letter is not a letter of surrender.

It's not a reprimand, and it's not a traditional letter of the Cao family that has been altered or altered.

This is actually a letter to discuss the classics with Lu Kang.

It's like the kind of letters sent to each other by celebrities and gentlemen, where they talk about their views on the classics, put forward a few of their own ideas, and ask each other for correction.

And the classic that Cao Chao wanted to discuss with Lu Kang was Wang Xue, which was the most popular in Wei.

Lu Kang thought that the other party was trying to persuade him to surrender through learning, but after reading it, he found that Cao Chao didn't mention anything about the world or the current situation at all, and he was talking about learning in a serious way.

And Lu Kang can be sure that this is not ghostwritten.

In fact, different people will have an obvious style of classics, and people with a discerning eye can see at a glance that Lu Kang is not familiar with Cao Chao, but from his cognition of the classics, he can understand the identity of the ruler.

People of different identities often have great differences when they govern the same scripture.

For example, Wang Su and Zheng Xuan, when commenting on the same classics, the difference is quite large, just because the identities of the two are different.

As an emperor to govern the scriptures, the pattern is not ordinary.

Lu Kang couldn't help but be amazed.

Cao Chao really has a talent for classics, not to mention, now he also has the bonus of "foresight".

Look at what classics are all into the wood, and even add their own speculation.

Lu Kang was fascinated.

In this era, the first class is the classics, and those who are proficient in the classics are not necessarily all celebrities, but they must be able to understand the classics.

Including a doer like Zhuge Liang, he also has to read the classics first, and then learn other things, and gradually expand his academic pool.

Cao Chao used his own way to interpret Wang Su's classics, and he really had a different feeling from the emperor's standpoint, Lu Kang read it for several days, but he never went out.

It can be said that Lu Kang was deeply touched.

On this day, Lu Kang finally put down the letter in his hand, and his study was full of all kinds of classics.

Looking at the full of annotations, Lu Kang couldn't help but smile bitterly.

It's broken, it seems to be a little too obsessive.

And when he walked out of the study, several lieutenants stood outside the door, looking very eager.

"General! The messenger sent by His Majesty has been waiting for you all day! ”

Seeing Lu Kang, his subordinates finally breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said.

Lu Kang was not in a hurry, he went to change his clothes and bathe first, and then met the emperor's envoy in the lobby.

Although the envoy waited for Lu Kang for a whole day, he did not feel the slightest displeasure.

Today's Lu Kang, the status of the boat has risen, and even vaguely surpassed Shi Ji, after all, he is still extremely young, no one knows what status he can achieve in the future, anyway, judging from today's development, this will definitely be a governor of Wu again.

The emperor sent a eunuch, but Lu Kang did not show disdain for eunuchs.

"General, Your Majesty has an edict."

The eunuch did not read it to Lu Kang, but directly handed over the edict to him.

Lu Kang picked up the edict, looked at it for a while, and finally more smiles appeared on his face.

The emperor granted his request.

After Lu Kang came to the front line, he checked the situation in various places, and immediately wrote three things to the emperor.

The first thing to do was to confiscate the property of those who had fled, and to take back the temples so that his people would not be allowed to receive them.

Lu Kang first took his own knife.

Let's just say Lu Kai, Lu Kai is gone, but his family property is still there, this is the property of the entire clan, and it should have been redivided to the rest of the clan, which is the practice of the Wu State.

But Lu Kang wrote a letter asking to break this convention.

Lu Kang believed that the behavior of the big clan to bet on both ends would reduce the will of Wu Guo, and he even wrote a letter asking for the clan to sit together, indicating that he was willing to be punished first.

Lu Kang's letter made the ministers stunned, after all, as a member of the beneficiaries, those who can take the lead in attacking themselves are ruthless.

Sun Xiu attached great importance to Lu Kang's letter, and promised him to confiscate those people's property, and asked Lu Kang to sit together, starting with his own request, Sun Xiu said that the past can not be investigated, if one person in the clan escapes in the future, the rest of the clan will be charged with the crime of rebellion!

With Lu Kang's support, Sun Xiu's attitude towards these people was a lot tougher.

However, the ministers didn't have much to say about it

The second thing is to be light-hearted.

It's easy to say, but it's really hard to do.

In order to meet the needs of the war, the three kingdoms need to maintain a large army all year round, and the original Later Han Dynasty will not maintain such a large standing army, that is, when there is a war, the good family is temporarily recruited, and if you want to maintain the army, if you want to fight, you need to pay taxes and levy labor.

To let the temple lightly pay for the meager endowment is to weaken the combat effectiveness of the entire country.

Lu Kang's proposal made the emperor extremely entangled.

However, Lu Kang believes that it is possible to reduce the number of troops and retain the elite army, and what they need now is to hold on rather than attack, reduce the number of troops, and make light payments at home to alleviate this grim situation.

Many generals believed that because of the defeat on the Jingnan battlefield, a large amount of materials and manpower should be spent to build walls and checkpoints here to strengthen the defenses here.

But Lu Kang angrily rebuked these statements.

Lu Kang only used one allusion, the time is not as good as the location, and the location is not as good as the people.

In this situation, if you still want to continue to squeeze oil and water from the hands of the people who have nothing left, and then let them build the checkpoint city wall, then no matter how tall and strong the city wall is, it will not be able to protect the Wu country, and the Wu country will definitely perish.

He also took the original Qin State as a distance, believing that only by gaining the support of the people can the country last for a long time.

Although the generals were a little hesitant, the temple ministers were very supportive of Lu Kang's decision, probably for them, the affairs of the world were not important, and advising the emperor to give them a good reputation.

This is more important than anything else.

Sun Xiu hesitated for a long time, but this time he still agreed to Lu Kang and lightly dismissed the thin endowment.

And the last thing is about the meritorious soldiers in the past.

In fact, as the general who had made the most meritorious contributions before, Lu Kang should not have raised this matter.

Because this made him feel anxious to be rewarded, his reputation was not very good, but Lu Kang still went to the book.

He asked the emperor to reward the soldiers who had made meritorious contributions during the war, and to properly count their military exploits, so that no one could be left behind.

Sun Xiu naturally agreed.

The envoy not only brought back Sun Xiu's edict, but also brought a lot of rewards.

Lu Kang's own officials had already been rewarded, and after the book, Sun Xiu gave him a large number of rewards, and there were more than ten carriages for transporting these things alone.

Lu Kang's face was calm, and he was not moved at all.

He looked at the eunuch in front of him and said seriously: "Don't leave, I have a letter, you can help me bring it back to Your Majesty!" ”

"Yui!!"

Lu Kang immediately asked people to get paper and pens and began to write.

Lu Kang first thanked the emperor for his reward and thanked him for following his advice.

And then with a turn of the pen, he began to talk about the major events in the temple again.

What Lu Kang is most worried about now is Zhang Bu and Pu Yangxing.

I don't know what is good about them, Sun Xiu is just reluctant to let go of these two people, and has repeatedly wanted to promote them.

Lu Kang said very sincerely in the letter: Wu Guo can no longer withstand the civil strife, and I ask Your Majesty not to promote the two of them again, so as not to cause other fights.

After writing these, Lu Kangfang handed the letter to the eunuch and asked him to leave.

After the eunuch left, the adjutant general stepped forward and asked cautiously, "General, have you informed Your Majesty about General Lu's letter?" ”

"Your original performance has offended a lot of people, I'm worried"

Lu Kang waved his hand, "What is there to say, if Your Majesty doesn't believe me, just arrest me and escort me back to Jianye!" ”

The deputy general suddenly didn't dare to speak, Lu Kang pondered for a moment, and then said: "Go and take out all the rewards given to me by Your Majesty, and divide them among the soldiers, according to their original merits, don't be partial."

The adjutant general was shocked, "General, this is Your Majesty's reward"

"It's okay, it's all to protect the Kingdom of Wu, Your Majesty won't blame it."

Lu Kang waved his hand, turned around and returned to the inner room again.

At this moment, Sun Xiu, who was in the construction industry, was also listening to the ministers under his command to impeach about Lu Kang.

Recently, the number of people impeaching Lu Kang has begun to increase.

Some say that he was in private contact with Wei, while others say that he sought a reward for himself.

Say anything.

Without exception, these people were all scolded by Sun Xiu.

Sun Xiu didn't like these children of the big clan, but when the country was in danger, who could save the Wu country, he still knew in his heart.

If you don't reuse Lu Kang, do you want to reuse you stupid things?

Let you go to Jingnan, I'm afraid you won't even dare to go to Lexiang!

Sun Xiu scolded the minister in front of him again.

"At the beginning, General Lu faced an army several times larger than himself in Jingnan, and he dared to attack Jiangling alone, and he never betrayed, but now that he has repelled the enemy, he will betray after receiving a reward?"

"You people actually dare to separate me from the commander of the army, I look at you as if you are conspiring with the Wei State! Come on, call me out! ”

Another minister was driven out in a very humiliated manner under the bastard.

Sun Xiu's face was very resolute, since Lu Kang came to a blunt exhortation, Sun Xiu temporarily gave up the idea of balancing, and got through the difficulties for the time being.

Just as he was about to review the recitals again, he suddenly coughed violently.

Even breathing became so difficult that he clutched his throat and let out a series of difficult gasps, which were then interrupted by a violent cough.

Sun Xiu's face was full of pain, and it was only after eating the medicinal soup made by the imperial doctor's order that his condition eased a lot.

Sun Xiu's eyes were filled with deep despair.

That's how it can be good.
