Hearing the sound outside, the father and son in the house were all stunned, and then they all changed to joy, it turned out that the old man who was far away at the border had come back. Meng Fu since Hangu Pass repelled the coalition army, has been at the border pass to lead the army to regain the lost territory, not only the previous Six Nations coalition captured all the cities of Qin, but also captured Wei and several cities in South Korea, after receiving the family of the flying pigeon message, learned that his beloved grandson was about to hold a wedding, so the old man arranged all the matters of the border pass overnight, and rode back to Xianyang on a fast horse.

Meng Biao galloped all the way, and after entering Xianyang City, he rode directly to the door of his house, got off the horse and walked quickly into the courtyard. Meng Wu had already walked out of the lobby with Meng Tian and Meng Yi, and when he saw Meng Fu coming in, he hurriedly bowed his head and said, "I've seen my father (grandfather)." ”

Meng Fu nodded, took off the cloak behind him, handed it to his subordinates along with the weapon he was wearing at his waist, and then said to Meng Wu and the others: "Where is my granddaughter-in-law, where is she?" It can be seen that Meng Fu cares about this granddaughter-in-law very much.

Meng Tian stepped forward and said, "Grandpa, Yanran is in the backyard, your old man has just returned home, sit down and rest first, and I will send someone to call Yanran to meet you." ”

The four of them entered the lobby and sat down, Meng Fu asked Meng Wu and Meng Tian about some things about the Northern Expedition to Rongdi, Meng Tian answered Meng Fu one by one, and after listening to Meng Tian's return, Meng Fu was very satisfied. Then Meng Wu told Meng Fu about the fact that before he came back, Lü Buwei came to force his relatives and the King of Qin gave Meng Tian and Zi Yanran to marry, and Meng Fu was very angry when he heard that this kind of thing had happened in his family today during the time he was not at home.

After Meng Fu drank the tea, the teacup slapped heavily on the table, and the teacup instantly became shattered, "I didn't expect that I was not at home, this Lu Buwei dared to bully the door, so it's okay, so that we and Lu Buwei will be completely separated, and we won't have to worry about anything in the court in the future." ”

"Father, don't be angry, it's just that now Lü Buwei is covering the sky with one hand above the court, and the king even sometimes has to look at Lü Buwei's face to act. Now the military generals in the DPRK and China, except for the old general Wang Qian, belong to your prestige the highest, but the old man Wang is now avoiding Lu Buwei's edge, recuperating at home, and your father is guarding the border pass, so there are military attaches above the court who are gradually leaning towards Lu Buwei. When my father came back this time, I thought that I would not return to the border in a short time, so it was better to stabilize people's hearts in the court. Meng Wu said to Meng Fu.

Meng Wei nodded and said: "I didn't expect that the court has changed so much, when I didn't go to the border that day, the military generals and civil servants above the court can still hold their own words, although no one is convinced by anyone, but in the end they can still trust a reason." Now that Lü Buwei has taken control of the situation, it is certain that there will be generals to take refuge, but we must also control this number, so as not to have an incident in the future, when there will be an incident, all the civil and military people of the Manchu Dynasty will be Lü Buwei's people. ”

Meng Yi echoed: "What Grandpa said is very true, if the king leaves a little later and sees Grandpa return, I think he will be very happy." ”

While talking, Zi Yanran followed Meng Tian's mother, Mrs. Meng, to the lobby, and after the two came in, they saw Meng Tian sitting in the hall and stepped forward to greet him: "Daughter-in-law to meet my father." ”

"Yanran has seen grandpa. ”

Seeing his daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law come in together, Meng Biao smiled with an old face, "Okay, okay, your name is Yanran, right, Wu'er said in his heart that you are beautiful, but I didn't expect the old man to feel even more beautiful after seeing the real person, even more beautiful than when Meng Tian's mother married Wu'er." ”

"Father, how can you boast like this, when I married into the Meng family, I still remember that you said that I was the most beautiful daughter-in-law in the entire Xianyang City, how could I leave my daughter-in-law aside when I saw my granddaughter-in-law. Meng Tian's mother knew that her father was joking, so she teased.

Zi Yanran opened her mouth and said: "Grandpa has won the award, how can the granddaughter-in-law compare to her mother-in-law, and her mother-in-law is also very beautiful now." ”

Meng Tian stood up, went over and grabbed Zi Yanran's hand, and said, "Grandpa is joking, my mother is as beautiful as you, okay, take a seat with me." Meng Tian pulled Zi Yanran to sit down with him, and Meng Tian's mother went to Meng Wu and sat down.

Meng Wu sat on the main seat and looked at the family, sighed, and said: "I think I am more than sixty years old this year, followed the first king to the Qin State, fought on the battlefield all my life, experienced hundreds of wars of all sizes, and today my grandson is about to get married." When the first king married Zhu'er (Meng Tian's mother's name) to Wu'er, my Meng family has already established a foothold in the Qin State, and now the old man worships Shangqing, Wu'er is also a general, and Tian'er has become a lieutenant, so it can be said that there is no family in the court that can compare with my Meng family. ”

Everyone didn't speak, and quietly listened to the old man's speech in the hall: "Wu'er is okay to lead the troops, but reading military books is too pedantic, so my father often takes you with me, I am afraid that one day you will make a command mistake and bury the lives of many of my Qin Guolang." Tian'er, your qualifications are much better than your father's, Wang Jian and I both think so about this matter, but you are still young now, you will have to have more experience in the future, and the battlefield is changing rapidly, I hope you can lead the Meng family army well and not let its prestige be damaged. Yi'er is born quiet, you don't like battlefield killing, you can help Meng Tian in the court in the future, everything in my Meng family today is given to our Meng family by the king, and the children and grandchildren of my Meng family should swear to defend Daqin and protect the king. ”

"Remember, child. ”

After finishing speaking, Meng Wu asked Meng Wu and Meng Tian when Meng Tian's wedding was scheduled, Meng Wu had not yet made a decision on this matter, and said that he would make a decision when his father returned home. Meng Fu told Meng Yi that he would go to the Qin Tianjian in the palace tomorrow to ask what the nearest auspicious day of the zodiac was, since Lü Buwei was eyeing the Meng family, and there was a marriage from the king, then Meng Tian's marriage should not be delayed for too long.

Everything was decided, and Meng Fu was tired all the way, and his body was a little tired, so he went back to his room to rest. Meng Wu and his wife also left the lobby and went out to prepare everything and preparations needed for the wedding. Meng Yi followed King Qin home early today, and suddenly felt nothing at home, so he returned to the palace and went to Qin Tianjian to inquire about the nearest auspicious day of the zodiac. Left Meng Tian and Zi Yanran are two young couples, the two of them also have nothing to do at home, and the marriage is handled by their father and mother, Zi Yanran said that she has been in Xianyang City for several days, and she has been idle at home for a few days, and her body wants to move, so she proposed to let Meng Tian take her to the mountains near Xianyang City to hunt. Meng Tian thought that hunting was also good, so he asked his family to prepare clothes and bows and arrows, and the two rode out of the city to hunt.

There is no large-scale prey on the mountain near Xianyang City, as early as when the first king changed the capital of Qin to Xianyang City, in order to expand Xianyang City, the trees and soil and stones on the surrounding mountains were all cut down, and the large prey on the mountain, such as tigers and leopards, were either driven away from here, or the army was killed, and now the remaining prey is only pheasants, hares and the like. However, it was obvious that Meng Tian and Zi Yanran were not interested in this kind of small prey, and Meng Tian took Zi Yanran to the Lishan enclosure in a distant area.

Lishan enclosure, this is the place where the Qin king hunted, the hunting ground is very large, covering the entire Lishan and the surrounding mountains and forests, no Qin people are allowed to live in it, and there are Qin troops stationed at the foot of the mountain all year round. There is a palace of King Qin to escape the summer heat on Lishan Mountain, but it is actually about the same size as the courtyard of a large family in Xianyang City. It's just that because Yingzheng rarely left the palace after ascending the throne, the Lishan Palace was uninhabited all year round, and only the troops stationed around were responsible for the daily maintenance of the palace.

Meng Tian and Zi Yanran rode horses to the military camp at the foot of Lishan Mountain, because this was the military camp of the Mengjia army, and since returning from the northern border, the Mengjia army was transferred to the foot of Lishan Mountain, where they recruited and trained new soldiers. Seeing that it was Meng Tian coming, the soldiers of the Meng family army at the gate hurriedly opened the camp gate and invited Meng Tian and Zi Yanran in.

Since Meng Tian temporarily became the commander of the forbidden army, his position as the commander of the Meng family army is still retained, but now it is only managed by Meng Wu, and Meng Wu is not in the camp these days, and everything is now managed by Zhao Li and Du Hui.

Seeing Meng Tian come to the barracks with Zi Yanran, Zhao Li and Du Hui were overjoyed, both of them had not seen Meng Tian for more than a month, and when the good brothers met, they naturally had a greeting. Knowing that Meng Tian and Zi Yanran were about to get married, Zhao Li and Du Hui, as well as several generals of the Meng family's army, congratulated the two one after another. Meng Tian also reunited with so many of his old friends, so he invited them to go to Xianyang City to drink wedding wine before his wedding.

After resting in the barracks with Zi Yanran for one night, Meng Tian refused Zhao Li's request to follow Meng Tian into the mountain the next morning, and only took Zi Yanran into the mountain alone, but before entering the mountain, he promised Zhao Li to accept an arrow used to transmit a signal, in case the two of them encountered an accident in the mountain, so he ordered someone to go to the rescue.
