Cui Changqing’s swift aging was definitely due, in part, to this little fellow.
Although Lu Yuan also believed that the other party was immensely pleased with this.
But while they could disregard their own fatigue, burning their life to teach his child, Lu Yuan couldn’t accept this without a pang of guilt.
Lu Yuan hoped that a national pillar like Cui Changqing could live a little longer, providing more strength for the Chu State.
The Chu State could not be without him now.
Although Cui Changqing’s knowledge was excellent, it was impossible for him to teach Lu He Confucian studies strictly.
As Lu Yuan’s eldest son, his expectations of Lu He were extremely high.
A mastery of both culture and martial arts was a must.
Being widely knowledgeable was also simply a matter of course.
Therefore, not only does Lu He need to learn Confucian studies, but also Daoist and Buddhist teachings, various other classic and unconventional literature, as well as some of Lu Yuan’s former concepts and knowledge. The useful ones must be selected and taught to him.
What Cui Changqing could teach was just a part of what Lu Yuan planned to teach Lu He.
Therefore, upon his return and after understanding the state of Lu He’s education, Lu Yuan decided to personally teach his son.
With his ability, honed by continuous learning since his transmigration, to be proficient in the teachings of Confucianism, law, military strategy, Daoism and Buddhism, and the education he received in his previous life, his erudition is unparalleled throughout the Nine Provinces.
Not to mention the understanding of military strategy, who in the world dared to say they surpassed the King of Chu?
Despite Lu Yuan’s cultivation in immortal Dao reaching to the degree of manifesting essence, who dared to say they had a deeper understanding of Daoism than him?
Even the Buddhist scriptures, which Lu Yuan had studied as he attained his immortal Dao, have given him valuable insights from associated knowledge.
As the ruler of Chu State and the commander of its armies, strict legalism is also indispensable. On this, Lu Yuan has his own thoughts and ideas.
Lastly, Confucian teachings.
Being able to associate with Sun Siwen and Cui Changqing, even if he had no interest in their teachings initially, his knowledge now vastly exceeds that of general juren and jinshi.
Plus, he attained major success in his cultivation, and his spirit has reached its peak, making his thoughts far more acute than the average person’s.
With all these conditions, he naturally has more than enough to teach one or two children.
Therefore, when Lu Yuan took over his children’s education, although Cui Changqing was slightly regretful, he also breathed a sigh of relief.
This wise king’s vast knowledge was something he, as the old prime minister, was very clear about.
Apart from falling a little short in the field of Confucianism compared to himself, his knowledge of many other schools of thought was indeed exhaustive, and even considered the pinnacle in this era.
With such an amazing king as the tutor, there was naturally no need to worry about a failure turning out.
Since the succession of the Chu State was assured, Cui Changqing naturally rejoiced in focusing more on state affairs, contributing more to the State of Chu with increased efficiency.
However, even though Lu Yuan took over the education of his two children, he didn’t plan to teach them forever. This was neither possible nor realistic.
As the King of Chu, he had a lot of matters to handle.
And although the war has ended, in the current turbulent world, who knows when Chu State will again go into battle with another nation.
When that happens, Lu Yuan will still have to head out to battle, and he simply won’t have enough spare time to teach his children.
Luckily, the peripheral situation could maintain stability for the near two years.
On the southwest side, Dali lost a province, and now barely survived, quietly licking its wounds.
For Nanzhao, they were constantly attacked by the three vassal states newly acquired by Lu Yuan, embroiled in a haze of war with no time to spare.
Chu, Su, and Song, three nations, just opened up huge new territories, and were busy digesting their gains, not having any extra strength to expand outward.
Zhou Country was busy dealing with the Barbarians and had no time for foreign wars.
Liang was engaged in a seesaw battle with Lai and Xu in the north, thus they couldn’t spare any effort to regard their southern border.
Nanhai Country, after Yan Wangqiu’s death, became the weakest nation in Yangzhou. Even its military strength was inferior to Chilih, Kunhai, Jianchuan and other small countries with only half a province of territory, hence they lacked the ability and courage to cause trouble.
As for Ning Country.
In view of Chu Country’s continuous victories and dramatic increase in national power, equalling Ning Country, they were also greatly frightened.
However, until they had accrued enough strength to deal with Chu Country and found a suitable opportunity, they dare not act recklessly.
Therefore, even though Chu Country’s periphery was still filled with enemy countries as far as the eye could see.
Strangely enough, it was extremely peaceful.
For the next two to three years, before those countries could spare a hand, there no worries about any wars on the borders.
Taking this opportunity, Lu Yuan planned to sort out the country’s political affairs, allowing Chu State to properly digest its newly opened territory, thereby preparing for the sure-to-be more intense wars in the future.
During this period, he also planned to provide proper enlightenment to his two sons, helping them establish a right value system, to prevent them from being led astray by others.
After that, he would let go, and let others teach his sons.
Of course, although he said he’d let go, the teachers he found for his sons were not chosen randomly.
For the education of Lu He and Lu Hao, Lu Yuan planned to hand them over to Sun Siwen.
With this friend as their instructor, he didn’t have to worry about his children being misled.
Moreover, since he was back.
Sun Siwen didn’t need to continue to stay in Xiangyang, studying martial arts with Zhou Qing.
With him as the master, no one was more qualified than Lu Yuan to teach Sun Siwen.
As someone who relied on the Red Sun Divine Skill to break through the Innate realm, and who perfected this technique’s transition to the Innate realm, Lu Yuan naturally had the confidence.
Just right.
He would teach Sun Siwen, who in turn would teach his own sons, which was essentially like him teaching his own sons.
“Logical closed-loop, perfect.”
After writing the letter summoning Sun Siwen and Zhou Qing back, he blew on the ink on it that hadn’t dried yet, revealing a smile on his face.
Having not seen his disciples and friends for over two years, he missed them dearly.
Moreover, with little Qing breaking into the Innate realm, it was improper of him as a master not to provide guidance.
This would be a good opportunity to check their cultivation progress, and simultaneously guide Zhou Qing on how to break through to the second realm of Innate. This could be considered as making up for his previous absence.
