Although Lu Qi had wandered among the common folk for many years, enduring countless hardships, he never gave up his pursuit of knowledge.
Not only was he exceptionally talented and able to recite the Four Books and Five Classics from memory, but he also possessed unique insights into matters of state, offering genuine wisdom without empty rhetoric.
Emperor Liang was greatly pleased.
To govern the realm, one required someone who understood the people's suffering, and his Imperial Grandson was undoubtedly the best choice.
Heaven bless Great Liang.
"These years have been hard on you."
Emperor Liang said to Lu Qi.
Lu Qi cupped his hands respectfully and answered, "Grandson's hardships are all worth it if it means one day I can assist Imperial Grandfather and Father in governing the realm."
Emperor Liang nodded. "Your mother taught you very well."
Lu Qi softly replied, "Indeed, these years have been hard on Mother."
