Chapter Eighty-Nine: King Qin Gives Marriage
Hearing Lü Buwei shouting his name, Meng Tian understood that he was still coming, so he got up and saluted Lü Buwei and said, "Xiangye praised him like this, and the last general can't afford it." ”
"Why should the young general be so modest, with the achievements of the young general now, can I find a second one in my Qin country, the young general can be the commander of an army at the age of less than a weak crown, killing the enemy on the battlefield is like drinking water, and there are hundreds of people who defeated the feat of thousands of Rong Di's cavalry, if it weren't for the fact that no one in this world saw the gods, the prime minister would have thought that the young general was a god who came down to help my Qin country. ”
Lü Buwei's undisguised pursuit of Meng Tian not only did not make Meng Tian feel happy, but he was secretly vigilant in his heart. Lü Buwei was a businessman, at least he used to be a businessman, and a businessman would not do a loss-making business if he did business.
Meng Wu said in Lü Buwei's words: "Tian'er's talent for leading troops is naturally far above me, even General Wang Lao once said that Tian'er can be the commander of the Qin army in the future, so I will allow him to enter the army early, hoping that he can grow into a real commander as soon as possible." ”
Lu Buwei stroked his beard, then looked at Jiajia who was sitting in the lower seat, and then said, "Jiajia, I intend to marry you to General Meng Tian, what do you think?"
Jiajia didn't get up, and bowed to Lu Buwei in her seat: "Jiajia obeys the orders of her father-in-law. ”
"Good. General Meng, this matter is settled, the old man really wants to marry your Meng family. Lü Buwei said to Meng Wu, as if he didn't want to give Meng Wu a chance to refuse.
Meng Wu looked at Meng Tian and was about to explain to Lu Buwei that Meng Tian already had a fiancée, and even if Jiajia married into the Meng family, she could only be a concubine. Meng Wu was about to speak, when suddenly a voice came from outside the door: "The king has arrived!"
Lu Buwei and the father and son of the Meng family were a little confused, the king would not leave the palace under normal circumstances, and even if he left the palace, he would put on a show of travel, calling forward and hugging, which can be said to alarm the entire Xianyang City. However, the expressions of the three of them were different, Lu Buwei was a little confused, Meng Wu was relieved, and Meng Tian was much better, with a feeling of escaping.
What Lu Buwei didn't understand was why he didn't know any news about the king's trip this time, he was going to the court and returned home to bring Jiajia to the Mongolian Mansion directly, sat down and didn't say a few words, just said the right thing, the king arrived in the Mongolian Mansion, there will be such a coincidental thing in the world?
Surprised to surprised, the three of them got up from their seats, and Jiajia also stood up and walked to the door to greet Yingzheng's arrival.
King Yingzheng of Qin didn't bring many people and horses with him when he left the palace this time, he only followed Meng Yi and Zhang Han around him, and only three horses were left to ride to the Meng family.
"The ministers pay homage to the king. As soon as the four of Lu Buwei walked out of the lobby door, Yingzheng had already taken Meng Yi and Zhang Han into the Mongolian Mansion, so the four of them hurriedly knelt down to greet them.
Ying Zheng entered the gate of the Mengfu and saw Lü Buwei and Mengwu father and son and a woman come out, and then greeted him in the courtyard. Although he already knew that Lü Buwei had come to Mengfu, in order not to make Lü Buwei suspicious, Yingzheng deliberately pretended to be surprised, and said: "It turns out that Xiang's father is also at Mengqing's house, and the widow still wants to send someone to invite Xiangfu, so Zi Province has made this trip." ”
Lü Buwei stood up and bent down and replied: "Back to the king, the minister came to the Mongolian Mansion today to discuss some things with General Meng, but I don't know that the king also came to the Mongolian Mansion today, and I hope the king will not blame." ”
"Hey, what is the father talking about, the widow came to Meng Qing's house today, and it is a great happy event, I originally wanted to invite the father to come and witness for the widow. Since Xiang's father is in Meng Qing's house, it means that this is the right time, place and people. ”
Lü Buwei didn't know what Yingzheng was doing here, and he still needed to be here to witness for him, so he asked, "I don't know what the king needs his ministers to witness for the king?"
Ying Zheng said: "This matter is a long story, let's go into the house and talk about it." Meng Wu and Meng Tian hurriedly led Ying Zheng into the lobby, but this time only Ying Zheng sat on the main seat above the hall, and Meng Wu's father and son sat opposite each other with Lu Buwei, Zhang Han, and Jiajia.
After sitting down, Ying Zheng gave Meng Yi a look, and Meng Yi stood up when he saw it. said: "Your Majesty, Lord Xiangguo, father, I will go outside to have a banquet, and at noon the king will have dinner in the Mongolian Mansion, and the Lord Xiangguo will not go back to the mansion, and how about staying and dining with the king in my Mongolian Mansion." ”
Lu Buwei looked at Ying Zheng, and Ying Zheng was also looking at him, then turned his gaze to Meng Yi and said, "So you're welcome." ”
Meng Yi left the lobby, Ying Zheng looked at Jiajia who was sitting in the tail seat, and asked, "Who is this woman?
Lü Buwei said: "This is my righteous daughter, who came with me to Mongolia as a guest today. ”
Ying Zheng sighed, did not continue to ask, he looked at Meng Tian, and said: "Meng Qing, I heard Meng Yi say that you made a marriage with a woman in Yiqu during your northern expedition, and you also brought her home when you came back, why didn't the widow see it, can you print it out for the widow to see?"
Meng Tian stood up and bowed: "If the king wants to see the minister's fiancée, the minister will go and bring her in to meet the king." ”
"Okay, go and get back quickly. ”
Meng Tian also left the lobby, after Meng Tian got up and left, Lu Buwei's face instantly became ugly, although he said that he brought someone to the door to ask for relatives, it was already a great shame for himself to be a Xiangguo, and now even King Qin Yingzheng also knew about it, this is a little difficult to do, he will definitely not be happy to watch himself marry the Meng family.
Not long after, Meng Tian and Zi Yanran walked in, but this time Zi Yanran did not wear the clothes of a maid again, but changed into her own clothes, and with the help of Meng Tian's mother, she also spent a light makeup, coupled with the heroic spirit brought by growing in the grassland, which made her look extraordinarily different.
Meng Tian knelt down with Zi Yanran, "Back to the king, the minister has already brought the minister's fiancée Zi Yanran." ”
"Zi Yanran greeted the king. Zi Yanran knelt on the ground and said.
Ying Zheng hurriedly flattened the two, and after Zi Yanran stood up, Ying Zheng took a closer look at Zi Yanran, and couldn't help but sigh that Meng Tian's vision was so good, and only a woman like Zi Yanran could be worthy of Meng Tian. Meng Tian said: "Meng Qing, your vision is good, Zi Yanran, oh, it should be said that although Mrs. Meng is not as beautiful as the Jiajia girl sitting there, but if you look closely, she has a different taste, not bad." ”
Zi Yanran bent down and thanked him: "Thank you for your praise." ”
Meng Tian and Zi Yanran sat down in the seat Meng Tian had just placed, and the husband and wife sat tightly together.
Ying Zheng thought to Lu Buwei and asked, "By the way, Father Xiang, you haven't said what you came to Mengqing's Mansion for?"
Lu Buwei didn't know what to say, Yingzheng also seemed to be very satisfied with Zi Yanran, so how could he talk about his marriage with Mengfu, but since he had come, he naturally couldn't run in vain. Lü Buwei said: "Back to the king, because since the little girl heard about General Meng's heroic deeds, she has been thinking about General Meng day and night, and this time there is a chance, so the minister took her over to meet General Meng." ”
"Oh, is it?" Ying Zheng said, but he didn't continue to ask, "Actually, the widow came here today for only one purpose, that is, for the marriage between the Meng Qing family and the girl Zi Yanran, the widow wants to marry the two of them, what does the father think?"
Lu Buwei didn't expect Yingzheng to suddenly use this trick, and he didn't have time to digest it for a while. However, Meng Wu and Meng Tian and his wife should be more happy, because in this way, even if Lu Buwei forcibly wants to marry the Meng family, it will not be up to him, and besides, this is a marriage given by the king, who would dare to make trouble.
