Chapter 2577

Getting Farther Away

...

Although as a foreign minister, being reported by officials in the imperial court was not a big deal, but if possible, Xu You still hoped not to offend Lu Jun and Liu Tong behind him.

After all, they are asking for help from others, so they naturally have to lower their posture. What's more, the other party has already lowered his posture. If they don't give face, they will only be asking for trouble.

"Lu Jun?" Ju Yi thought about it and found that he didn't know this person, but he didn't think about it too much.

Since Xu You thought that the other person was worthy of such courtesy, he could just let him follow.

Since you want to show respect to each other, just go together.

Seeing that Ju Yi was going to go with him, Xu You's eyes flashed with surprise. Then he looked at Ju Yi seriously and nodded with satisfaction.

After such a period of baptism by wind and snow, Ju Yi's performance has indeed improved a lot compared to before.

At least the arrogance and contempt for the world have been reduced a lot.

"Then I wonder how far out of the camp we should go to welcome him?" Although Ju Yi didn't know who Lu Jun was, he could also use an alternative way to guess his status.

"Thirty miles, this distance should be about right." Although he really wanted to say ninety miles, that would be tantamount to exposing the other party. If the other party got angry because of this, it would be more painful for Xu You than taking his wealth.

So after much deliberation, Xu You finally chose Sanshili. Although the current identity and status of Lu Jun did not meet this requirement, it also showed their respect and would not be considered disrespectful.

"Thirty miles? I see. I'll ask people to prepare right away!" After realizing that the other party's status was no lower than his lord, Ju Yi immediately began to organize the army and seriously receive the other party.

It can be said that when Lu Jun arrived at this location on the 'Little Eagle', he saw that he was greeted by everyone thirty miles away from the camp, and his forehead couldn't help but darken.

Originally he could reach the camp directly by riding the 'Eagle', but now he had to land in advance and then walk some distance.

But since the other party had already shown this kind of respect, Lu Jun had no choice but to accept it.

As masters, Yan Liang, Wen Chou and others quickly noticed the "little eagle" circling and landing in the sky, and discovered Lu Jun sitting above.

Especially when Lu Jun arrived at the ground in front of everyone on the "Little Eagle", everyone felt the difference.

"How majestic this eagle is." Xu You looked at the 'little eagle' that was much taller than himself, ignored its huge size with a wingspan of nearly ten meters, turned his gaze to Lu Jun, and briefly praised the eagle.

Lu Jun slowly stepped down from the back of Little Eagle, glanced at the Yuan family members present, and then saluted politely.

Afterwards, the people of the Yuan family all responded in a tacit understanding, and the etiquette was very standard. Even the Han etiquette that Valery responded with could be said to be very standard.

"It seems that you have indeed succeeded. I also kept my word and come over to help!" Lu Jun fixed his eyes on Valery, looked at the other party's particularly obvious Slav appearance, was silent for a while, and then nodded seriously.

Although he doesn't look like a person from the Han Empire, his demeanor and manners show that he has received Han cultural education.

Lu Jun basically does not have many requirements for these people who have established their own country abroad, because these people who have gone abroad basically know what they want to do. People are indeed the foundation of a country, but what kind of people are these people? This is a question worth thinking about.

In addition to one's own nationality and blood, what can further identify a sense of belonging to a country and generate a sense of national identity is one's own civilization.

Whether it is culture, habits, or even the simplest customs, they will deeply influence a person.

In this era, the only countries with relevant cultural education were the Han Empire, the Roman Empire, and the Kushan Empire, which could barely be considered half.

Fortunately, the Han Empire has been passed down for 400 years. Not only are its cultural beliefs deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but they are also deeply imprinted in the minds of all ethnic groups, building up a sense of national identity.

In contrast, the Roman Empire was also constructed with glory and faith, but because of the national system, it was basically limited to Roman citizens. As for non-Roman citizens, the first thing they had to consider was how to become Roman citizens before they could talk about the affairs of their own country.

The Kushan Empire, which was only half of the country, also had similar ideas and cultural beliefs, but they were not directed at the country, but at the nation and gods.

In other words, the ideological education of the Kushan Empire can only be said to be unqualified, or even completely nonexistent.

In this era, even after being baptized by some kingdoms and principalities, the Slavs still did not understand their own cultural customs and spiritual support, and formed their own civilization.

If it weren't for their individual strength, the Slavs would have been swallowed up by others long ago.

But it is also because of this that the Slavs, who have a strong resistance to hard power, are basically powerless in the face of soft power and cultural invasion, and have even completed the relevant changes without realizing it.

It can be said that this potentially excellent population is indeed a rare treasure.

"Since you agree with this, please move..." Xu You felt a lot more relieved when he saw Lu Jun agreed directly. He then gestured in the direction and politely showed the way.

Even if we put aside the other person's identity, his abilities and talents are worthy of his careful and polite treatment.

What's more, the identity behind him is enough to handle most of the invitations in the world.

If the matter were made public, the person who came here today would not be him, but Yuan Tan who was in the northern city.

As for Yuan Shang and others, they were still in Taishan County of the Han Empire, accompanying Yuan Shao.

It can be said that this outing was not only a test for Yuan Shao, but also a test for Yuan Tan.

Because of Yuan Shao's existence, the number of people traveling this time increased, but the only monarch these people supported and recognized was Yuan Shao.

As the son of Yuan Shao, Yuan Tan, even though he showed good efforts and abilities, was still a long way from being the wise monarch in everyone's mind.

This distance will only become farther and farther with the longing in my heart...
