Chapter 321: Teaching
The secret letter in Meng Tian's hand was sent by Zhang Kui in Yancheng, and there was only one thing written, that is, Tu Qin's return from the grassland, and what happened on the grassland.
Everything was as Meng Tian had expected at the beginning, after he lent Princess Yinting 50,000 people, there was a new force on the grassland. After the alliance between Sangkun and Plankilt, Plankiert began to disobey Kundu Yang, and dealt with the orders issued by Kundu in the name of the Great Khan, completely looking like he wanted to establish himself as a king.
Kundu was also very angry about this, but he did not have the energy to deal with Plankilt at the moment, and now that an unknown force of men and horses was harassing his rear in his domain, Kundu had to leave the Great Khan's tent and return to his own place to clear the threat.
His departure gave Princess Yinting a chance, which was originally Xue Bin's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. Princess Yinting returned to her home and revealed her identity, so all the tribes on the grassland that did not submit to Kundu came to take refuge, including some wandering herdsmen on the grassland who were oppressed by Kundu. In a short period of time, Princess Yinting gathered more than 100,000 people in her hands, and her strength gradually equaled with Kundu.
Kundu returned to his territory only to find out that he had been fooled, but when he wanted to return to the king's tent, he received a distress signal from Zamashida. Princess Yinting's army and the border army of Qin State attacked Zamasheda from the north of Zamashita and the other from his inevitable, and in less than half a month, half of Zamashida's territory was lost.
It was only at this time that Kundu really knew that his general situation had gone, and he had to take care of Zamashida's request for help, so he and Zamashida's men and horses converged together, plus his original men and horses, as well as Terhan's men and horses, a total of 200,000 soldiers and horses confronted Princess Yinting on the grassland.
Kundu's strength is still so strong, which makes Princess Yinting jealous, and there are also two people who are also worried, Sang Kun and Plankilt, and the strength of the two of them is far less than the combination of Kundu and Zamasida. As the so-called enemy of the enemy is a friend, so Princess Yinting and Sang Kun chose to join forces, first defeated Kundu and then discussed their respective interests.
After reaching a consensus, the situation in Kundu took a turn for the worse, and under the joint attack of the two gangs, in less than half a year, Kundu's men and horses lost two-thirds, and the territory shrank by nearly half. In the end, under the powerful attack of the other party, Kundu and Zama Shida led the remaining men and horses to flee into the desert of the sand sea west of the steppe and disappeared without a trace.
Princess Yinting, who regained the position of Great Khan, did not forget the help of the Qin people, and she fulfilled the promise she made to Meng Tian and declared herself a vassal to Great Qin.
This incident also became one of the gifts that Meng Tian wanted to give to Ying Zheng.
Someone walked in from outside the hall, Meng Tian put away the secret letter in his hand and looked at the person. It was none other than God.
"Father. Meng Tianci came in and shouted at Meng Tian, then walked up to Meng Tian, drank all the tea in front of Meng Tian, then wiped his mouth casually, and sat aside.
Looking at this sweaty son, Meng Tian asked with a smile, "What are you doing here, shouldn't you be in the palace at this time?"
Meng Tianci took the face towel handed over by the maid at home, wiped the sweat on his face, and then said to his father, "Don't
By the way, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't be like this today. ”
"Why do you blame me, what's wrong?" Meng Tian was blamed by his son, feeling a little inexplicable.
Meng Tianci said: "The gentleman in class today was called by His Majesty to ask about things, I, Fusu, and Hu Hai, the three of them went to practice swords if they were fine." I don't know who taught Hu Hai's swordsmanship, it's a bit powerful, and he compares Fusu to it. As soon as I saw it, Fusu was my father's student, and he was defeated by Hu Hai, doesn't that mean that my father didn't teach well? ”
"You defeated Hu Hai?" Meng Tian asked.
Meng Tianci shook his head, and then said: "That is, my swordsmanship father, you don't know that Hu Hai is my opponent. But after I defeated Hu Hai, he called in his helpers again, and then I fought these people again, and I fought until this time. ”
His son's martial arts Meng Tian is clear, although he is not as high as himself, but he still has the strength to fight against the forbidden army masters in the palace. However, if Meng Tianci can be tired to this extent, Meng Tian can't think of any master in the palace who can do it, at least for the sake of their own face, they will also give in to Tianci.
Meng Tian was a little interested in the helper Hu Hai had found, and he asked, "Who are the people Hu Hai has found?" Is it the forbidden army in the palace?"
"Well, no, it's a couple of people I haven't met. Meng Tianci remembered the people he had fought with not long ago, he was also a frequent visitor to the palace, but it was the first time he had seen these people in the palace.
There are still masters in the palace that he doesn't know, which Meng Tian doesn't know. But this is also normal, since he is no longer the commander of the palace guards, Zhang Han has also been sent to the side of the commander of Yandi, the original four commanders have also changed over the years, and now it is indeed normal for some masters in the palace to appear. After all, the safety of the royal palace was the top priority of the entire Qin State.
"Then do you know who these people are?" Meng Tian continued.
Meng Tianci said that he didn't know, these people's swordsmanship moves were a little strange, he seemed to have seen them somewhere, but he couldn't remember it at this time.
Meng Tian thought for a moment and said: "It seems that it's time to teach Fusu something, I have been his teacher for so many years, and I have always been leading troops outside, so I am indeed negligent to him." ”
Meng Tianci said to his father: "Then I estimate that Fusu will die of happiness, and he has a complaint about his father not teaching him swordsmanship, but he doesn't dare to tell you, he just complained to me." ”
"Okay, I know, you go first, have a good rest, and tomorrow I will enter the palace to see Your Majesty. ”
"Yes, father. ”
"Chen Mengtian greets Your Majesty, long live Your Majesty, long live, long live. ”
Ying Zheng was sitting on the throne reviewing the chapter that had just been sent today, and when he heard Meng Tian come in, he put down the bamboo slip in his hand, raised his head and said to Meng Tian who was kneeling below: "Meng Qing, please get up quickly, this is not a court, I don't need to be polite to you." ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty. Meng Tian stood up from the ground and said to Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng asked Meng Tian to sit down, and then said: "What, you have time to enter the palace to see me today? I heard that you drank too much in the Prime Minister's Mansion a few days ago and felt unwell, so I didn't let you go to the court to discuss matters." ”
Thinking of the assassination that day, Meng Tian did not tell Ying Zheng about it. "Back to Your Majesty, the minister did drink a few more glasses at the prime minister's house, because the minister banned drinking in the barracks, so the minister's alcohol consumption has declined in the past two years, but I didn't expect that this time His Majesty was worried, it was the minister's sin. ”
Ying Zheng smiled, and he said to Meng Tian: "Haha, this is not a shameful thing, you are no longer a young man, and you still want to be the same as twenty years ago, so don't drink so much if the amount of alcohol has declined, my country still depends on you to support me." ”
Meng Tian bent down to thank him: "Your Majesty Xie cares, and the minister keeps it in mind." ”
"The minister came today, first, to see His Majesty, and secondly, to Fusu, the son. Since His Majesty made Fusu my student, I haven't fulfilled my responsibility as a teacher for so many years, so I want to teach Fusu some swordsmanship during this time. Meng Tian said.
Ying Zheng nodded, he said: "It's okay, I like this kid Fusu very much, he is my eldest son, and in the future, the Jiangshan Society of Daqin will be handed over to him, and it is not bad to let him have some martial arts." Yesterday, this kid lost his swordsmanship test with Hu Hai, and he has been sullen at night, but you can make him happy when you come today. ”
Even Yingzheng knew about yesterday's competition, and it is estimated that someone with a heart reported the matter. Meng Tian said to Ying Zheng: "Then since this is the case, the minister will not disturb His Majesty to deal with state affairs, and the minister will go to Fusu and Tianci." ”
"Go, by the way, don't leave at noon, you and Tianci will stay in the palace and dine with me. ”
"Thank you, Your Majesty, the ministers obey the order. ”
As the emperor's child and the eldest son, Fusu has attracted much attention since he was born, because he wants to become the master of an empire in the future, and every step of his growth may be related to the future of Daqin, which is why Yingzheng wants Fusu to worship Meng Tian as a teacher. Compared with Li Si, Ying Zheng is also more willing to believe in this friend who grew up with him since childhood.
Today's lesson to the three children was a civil official, a middle-aged man with a long beard, Meng Tian had some impressions of him, because Meng Tianci said that he taught well.
Meng Tian entered the main hall of the class and said to the man who was teaching the three children's Analects, "Lord Liu, is it still in class?"
"General Meng, if you miss the distance, you still hope to forgive your sins. Master Liu held a bamboo slip in his hand and bowed to Meng Tian.
Meng Tian helped Lord Liu up, smiled and said, "Lord Liu is not more polite, it seems that I came early, since Lord Liu hasn't finished the class yet, then I'll come back later." ”
Lord Liu looked at the bamboo slip in his hand, and then looked back at the three children sitting in the seat, everyone was looking at him, and his eyes seemed to be urging him to get out of class. "It's okay, the class will end soon, since the general has something, how dare the lower official disturb the general. ”
After that, Master Liu continued to the three children: "This morning's lesson will first talk about this place, and everything in the Analects is what the sages said, so you must keep it in mind. After Lord Liu finished speaking, he left the main hall.
Meng Tian walked up to the three children and said to them, "Let's go, I'll teach you swordsmanship today." ”
Fusu and Meng Tianci immediately jumped up from their seats happily, but Hu Hai on the side didn't feel much about it.
