Chapter 4408 Children
However, judging from the current situation of the Jin State, such an idea is destined to be difficult to realize. The Jin State is initially stable, and the wars outside the Western Regions have not completely ended. It is even possible that the Kushan army will attack Wusun and Da
Wan.
Under such circumstances, a strong monarch guard is absolutely necessary.
The strength of the Jin army is outstanding, but the monarch's deterrence is crucial. Lu Bu has not considered the matter of establishing a prince for the time being, mainly because his sons are still young. Although there are advantages to establishing a prince earlier, there are also disadvantages.
of.
The officials of the Jin State managed the Qingming Dynasty, which was of great help to the subsequent development of the Jin State. After the prince was established, it was inevitable that the officials in the court would choose a camp when doing certain things.
In the officialdom of the Jin State, there is no such thing as a camp. They are all officials of the Jin State. Their efforts are for the prosperity of the Jin State. Besides, when the strength of the Jin State becomes strong, it will also be beneficial to the ministers of the Jin State.
of.
Currently, Lu Bu has four sons, Lü Ping, Lü An, Lü Sheng, and Lü Wen. Among them, Lü Ping is the eldest, and the youngest, Lü Wen, is less than four years old. Under such circumstances, it is inappropriate to confirm the crown prince earlier.
The prince is still young now, and it will not be too late until they truly grow up.
Lu Bu is not anxious, which does not mean that the officials in the court are not anxious. The Jin State is strong and strong, which is naturally something to be happy about. However, the country's crown prince has not been established. After all, it is not a good thing. It is not a good thing to determine the crown prince earlier.
, conducive to the stability of the country.
When it comes to establishing a crown prince, the officials in the DPRK are extremely cautious, because such matters are very involved, and the officials in the DPRK need to make more wise choices.
The best way is to obey the monarch's orders. Throughout the dynasties, many officials died because of the prince's affairs.
Lu Bu was in his prime, and he still had a lot of years left. The matter of becoming the crown prince did not seem to be as urgent as imagined.
Lu Ping is the son of Cai Yan, and Cai Yan is the daughter of the great scholar Cai Yong. Cai Yong has a lot of influence in the officialdom of Jin. In addition, Lu Ping is Lu Bu's eldest son, so he is very likely to be established as the crown prince.
, the second son Lu An was born to Diao Chan, Lu Ping was similar in age, there was not much difference, but judging from Lu An's ordinary behavior, he wanted to become a military commander.
This situation reassured the officials in the court. Lu Ping and Lu An were similar in age. If Lu An's performance was more outstanding, Lu Bu would inevitably have the idea of raising a child.
It is also a good thing that Lu An is interested in practicing martial arts. Although Lu Bu is a military commander, when it comes to choosing the prince, Lu An who studies martial arts will definitely not pay more attention to it.
The world gained on horseback cannot be governed on horseback. Any monarch will understand this truth. Lu Bu's achievements as a general are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.
Lu Sheng was born to Mi Zhen. Although Lu Sheng was one year younger than Lu Ping and Lu An, there was a powerful Mi family behind Mi Zhen. Now Mi Zhu is the Minister of Household Affairs and has great influence in Jin State.
With a high status, the power in Mi Zhu's hands should not be underestimated.
Judging from Lu Sheng's performance, he is also extremely smart.
The youngest son Lu Wennai was born to Zhen Mi and is too young to tell.
The officials of the Jin State were very worried about the crown prince, but they did not dare to show it. Whether it was Mi Zhen or Zhen Mi, the forces behind them were very powerful, and there was still a big problem in competing for the crown prince.
of variables.
Lu Bu was still unsure about the candidate for the crown prince, and it was difficult to figure out the civilian and military commanders.
It can be said that when it comes to determining the crown prince, the greater power lies in the hands of Lu Bu. With how much prestige Lu Bu has in the Jin Kingdom, as long as an order is issued, there is absolutely no reason for the civil servants and military officers in the court to violate it.
Past events have fully demonstrated that if you want to challenge Lu Bu's authority in Jin, you must be prepared to bear the price.
The victories one after another made Lu Bu's position more stable, and the officers and soldiers in the army also regarded Lu Bu as a god.
Under such circumstances, no one dared to despise Lu Bu's orders.
However, it is reasonable for some officials to make preparations in secret. As the emperor and his ministers make the wrong choice before the crown prince is confirmed, this would be the most unfortunate thing.
Lu Bu was very generous when he treated the officials in the court. Although Lu Bu was a military commander, the way he did things was still recognized by the officials in the court. Especially his generosity towards officials was definitely unimaginable at the beginning.
of.
Lu Bu was such a brave and capable warrior on the battlefield. In every battle, he took the lead and was not afraid of the enemy's strength. It was precisely because of Lu Bu in the Jin army that they could win in battles again and again. Without Lu Bu's
The Jin army's combat effectiveness will be greatly reduced.
After becoming a monarch as a general, Lu Bu's performance was absolutely remarkable, especially when dealing with officials under his rule, he was able to listen to their suggestions. This alone makes it worthwhile for more officials to follow Lu Bu.
behind.
When the Jin State was short of talents, the literati who went to seek refuge with Lu Bu were highly valued, and now many of them have become powerful officials in the Jin State.
Not only that, there were also many schools in the Jin Kingdom. These literati regarded themselves as disciples of the emperor, and they would definitely be grateful to Lu Bu when they entered the officialdom.
In terms of behavior, Lu Bu did not pay much attention to the views of aristocratic families. Instead, he stood in the position of ordinary people and truly did more for the people. Such a monarch is very rare in the past dynasties.
.
Although Lu Bu's behavior offended more wealthy families, it gained the support of the people.
In battle after battle, the people of Jin showed strength that the princes did not dare to underestimate. After their strength was gathered, they could bring greater help to the Jin army's victory on the battlefield.
Lu Bu's success proved the value of the people. Only a monarch who truly serves the people can gain the support of the people.
It was precisely the support of the common people that gave Lu Bu absolute prestige in the army, because more of the soldiers were from the common people, and they were able to enjoy good treatment in the army because of Lu Bu's generosity.
If the soldiers dare to use their lives in war, and the people of aristocratic families dare not act recklessly, the development of the Jin Kingdom can be expected.
In fact, when the princes competed, although the power of the noble families helped the development of the princes a lot, the existence of the noble families was also a big constraint for the princes. When doing things, more considerations are needed.
