Prince Wu 2
The Duke's mansion.
Madam Lu and Zhu Fengyin stood in front of the Main Courtyard with Lu Yiling and Lu Yong when Lu Yaozhu and Su Liya arrived. They all knelt to receive the edict, while Cuihong read out the Emperor's edict. The officials from the ministry of rites stopped behind him in two rolls while carrying a carrying size of wooden boxes.
Such procedure indicated that someone in the family or the entire Lu family was getting rewarded. Since both brothers had contributed to the national growth both on and off the battlefield, getting rewarded was expected.
However, most rewards pass through some official channels before being presented. Everyone was curious about what the edict said, news of the Lu family getting rewarded spread as soon as the long line of palace officials arrived at the Duke's mansion while carrying gifts.
