"PS: In view of the failure of writing the heroine in the previous book, I have been hesitating to write the heroine, and finally I think it should be properly described as a spice, otherwise wouldn't it be a war article throughout? Therefore, after a chapter or two, this article will officially enter the Wei State chapter, and the main opponent of this article must be able to guess as well, Bai Qi!"

———— the following text————

It was the first month of the new year, and Meng Zhong finally reached the age of eighteen.

In this era, at the age of eighteen, they are basically married and have children, such as Meng Heng, Meng Min and other clan brothers, all of whom have several children, but only Meng Zhong, Meng Hu, and Meng Sui are not yet married.

Therefore, the clan naturally had to marry these three outstanding family members, which put Meng Zhong, Meng Hu, and Meng Sui under a lot of pressure.

Among the three, Meng Hu reacted the most, this kid has followed Meng Zhong to the north and south in the past two years, and has seen the outside world of flowers, where is he willing to get married so early, but still marry a woman he has never even seen.

So, on the second day of the first lunar month, when Meng Zhong came to Menghu's house to greet the elder of the clan, Meng Jin, that is, Menghu's grandfather, he saw that the old man, who had served as the Sima of the clan, was running after Menghu all over the courtyard with a cane.

Even, even Meng Hu's uncle and current clan family Sima Mengzhi had to obey the orders of his father Meng Yi and joined the ranks of besieging Meng Hu's nephew, so frightened that Meng Hu ran back and forth in the courtyard, for fear of being caught by his grandfather and uncle.

And when Meng Zhong pulled to the courtyard of Meng Hu's house, he happened to see Meng Qing pressing Meng Hu on the snow, and beside him, the elder Meng Yi was panting with a cane and scolding his grandson.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing this scene, Meng Zhong asked in confusion, after all, as far as he knew, don't look at Elder Meng Yi knocking Meng Hu's head with a cane at every turn, but everyone knows that Meng Hu is the precious eldest grandson of this elder, where is he willing to punish him seriously?

Looking up and seeing Meng Zhong, Meng Hu hurriedly called for help: "Ah Zhong, save me, save me." ”

Seeing his nephew begging for help in such a humiliating way, Meng Zhi was angry and funny, so he let Meng Hu go, but Meng Hu got up and ran away, so angry that his grandfather Meng Yi paused on crutches not far away and was furious: "Do you dare to run? Come back to the old man! ”

Seeing this, Meng Zhong hurriedly stepped forward and said to Meng Jin, "Elder, what's wrong?" How do you have such an atmosphere? Calm down the anger first, did Ah Hu make any mistakes? ”

Meng Zhong is also the elder Meng Yi watched grow up, and Meng Yi also has a very good impression of Meng Zhong, seeing Meng Zhong's persuasion, Meng Yi calmed down his anger, raised his hand and pointed at Meng Hu who was hiding in the distance, and blamed and said: "Ah Zhong, you also know, Ah Hu is the eldest grandson of the old man, his father died in the Teng country, and the family should be inherited by this kid in the future, and now he is eighteen years old, and the clansmen of this age in the past have basically been married and have children, it is the old man who told this kid about it today, guess what?" This kid actually said that he didn't want to get married yet......"

In the distance, Meng Hu timidly explained: "Grandfather, I didn't say that I didn't want to get married, I just said that I wanted to pick a ...... that pleasing to the eye."

Hearing this, Meng Jin's eyebrows suddenly condensed: "The marriage affair should be decided by the elders, how can you be allowed to come nonsense?" …… Bastard, you're getting stiff now, aren't you? ”

After scolding a few words, Meng Yan turned his head to look at Meng Zhong and asked, "Ah Zhong, do you say this is the reason?" ”

"This ......"

Meng Zhong felt a little headache.

From the bottom of his heart, of course, he was inclined to support Meng Hu, after all, he didn't think there was anything wrong with Meng Hu's words.

What's more, he, Menghu, and Mengsui are grasshoppers on the same rope, if he doesn't help Menghu speak at this moment, he may have to be planted himself after a while.

Thinking of this, he comforted Meng Yan and said: "Elder, Ah Hu is not a thing in the pool, it doesn't matter if you get married later, maybe you can find a more suitable ......."

"More suitable? Zhao Guo woman? Meng Yan said with a slight sneer.

"Zhao woman?" Meng Zhong was a little puzzled.

Seeing this, Meng Yi pointed to Meng Hu in the distance and sneered: "You ask that kid, what kind of Zhao woman he wants to marry." ”

Meng Zhong glanced back at Meng Hu, and suddenly understood in his heart.

I have to say that Zhao is indeed rich in beauties, at least when Meng Zhong, Meng Hu and others followed Master Zhao's side at the beginning, Handan Palace was almost full of beautiful Zhao palace maids, and even in places like Handan Yi and Feiyi, they had also seen mixed-race Zhao girls with a bit of alien characteristics, such as Zhao girls mixed with Bai Di's blood, with a high nose bridge and fair complexion.

But obviously, this kind of thing is not acceptable to Mengjin.

After all, although the Mengshi clan is currently in decline, it is also a "sub surname", and the nobles left over from the Shang Kingdom will naturally pay attention to the family lineage, so even if the family intermarries, the object is basically other families after the "sub surname", such as Ge's, Xiao's, Le's, Xiang's, and so on.

If Meng Hu really dared to bring a Zhao woman with Bai Di's blood back home, his grandfather Meng Ji was not sure what he would be angry.

No, Meng Yan sternly warned his precious eldest grandson for the first time: "Bastard boy, if you dare to come nonsense, watch the old man break your legs!" ”

Seeing that his grandfather was about to continue chasing after him, Meng Hu was so frightened that he quickly ran away.

Seeing this, Meng Jin was also a little confused, turned his head to Meng Zhong and said: "Ah Zhong, you have the best relationship with Ah Hu, you watch him for the old man, don't call him Hulai." ”

Meng Zhong nodded and just wanted to reply, when he saw that Meng Yan suddenly seemed to think of something, he looked at Meng Zhong with a smile and said, "Ah Zhong, you are the same age as Ah Hu, right?" The old man has an old friend from the Xiang clan, and he ......"

Hearing this, Meng Zhong was full of excitement, and hurriedly said, "Elder, I'll go and persuade Ah Hu." …… Don't worry, don't worry. ”

With that, he turned and left, completely ignoring Meng Yi calling him behind him.

"These two boys ......"

Looking at Meng Zhong's back as if he was leaving, Meng Jin couldn't help but laugh and scold.

On the side, Sima Mengzhi smiled and said, "Father, I advise you to save your worries, didn't you listen to Brother Mengji?" When Ah Zhong was in Zhao State, it was King Zhao's guard Sima, and he was in charge of a group of Zhao soldiers who were no less than Wei Wushu, and Ah Hu had also died many times, plus Meng Sui, the three brothers of their clan were very beautiful when they were in Zhao State, and they had seen women in big cities, where could they still look at women in small places? ”

"What happened to the woman in the little place? How to say that it is also after the surname of the noble! Meng Yan glared at the second son.

"Good, good." Meng Zhi spread his hands with a smile, and immediately glanced at the direction in which Meng Zhong and Meng Hu fled, and said with a little surprise: "Having said that, Ah Hu, this kid's strength has grown a lot, and when I pressed him, I could obviously feel that he had regained his strength......

“……”

Meng Yan stroked his beard and was silent, and it was not difficult to see from his slightly distracted eyes that he probably remembered his eldest son who died in Teng Kingdom, that is, Meng Hu's father Meng Qing.

I have to say that in the first battle of Teng, Meng Qing captured the brave Teng monarch Teng Hu, and once became the pride of the Meng family, but unfortunately Meng Qing also died because of this, every time he thought of the death of his eldest son, Meng Yan was heartbroken, which made him put great expectations on his eldest grandson Meng Hu.

"Go back, you have to sharpen Ah Hu."

Meng Yan stroked his beard and said: "Ah Hu is not as witty as Ah Zhong and Ah Sui, he has a reckless personality, and the old man is afraid that he will ...... in the future In short, while he is still in the clan, you can sharpen his martial arts. ”

"My son got it." Meng Zhi nodded and said.

At this time, Meng Zhong and Meng Hu had already fled to Meng Sui's home.

Unexpectedly, like Meng Hu's situation at home, Meng Sui was also recommended by his grandfather to discuss marriage, so that when Meng Zhong and Meng Hu came to visit, Meng Sui was simply amnesty.

Meng Sui's grandfather, who was recommended by the clan Zhu Meng, was the elder who took the most care of Meng Zhong's family in the past and regarded Meng Zhong as his own grandson.

It was Meng Zhong who took Meng Zhong to Zhuangziju at the beginning, so that Meng Zhong had the opportunity to become a disciple of Zhuangzi, and it is undeniable that he is the elder who helped Meng Zhong the most in the clan.

Compared with Meng Zhong's family, which was like a chicken, flying and jumping when Meng Zhong arrived, Meng Sui's family was quite peaceful, and the two grandparents calmly discussed the matter of marriage, which may be because the elder Meng Jian's personality was not as irritable as Meng Jin, or because Meng Sui did not confront his grandfather in person.

Of course, he didn't contradict it, this doesn't mean that Meng Sui will accept the marriage imposed on him by his elders, after all, Meng Zhong, Meng Hu, and Meng Sui are all very subjective people, the difference is only that Meng Hu will say it to his face, and Meng Sui just put it in his heart, and look for another opportunity to try to destroy his dissatisfied marriage, to put it bluntly, belongs to the kind of more "yin" character.

"Ah Zhong, what are your plans for this year?"

Seeing Meng Zhong and Meng Hu coming, Elder Meng Jian dispelled the idea of continuing to discuss the marriage with his grandson Meng Sui, and instead asked Meng Zhong about his plans for this year, after all, he also valued Meng Zhong.

Hearing this, Meng Zhong replied respectfully: "This year...... I haven't thought about it yet. I guess I'll stay with my master and continue my studies. ”

"Don't you want to travel again?"

Meng Jian asked curiously.

Because according to what he saw, after Meng Zhong, Meng Hu, and Meng Sui went to Zhao State, they were just like the two of them before, and they all had some general style in their gestures, and they were worthy of experiencing a big scene in Zhao State and commanding many armies, compared with Meng Heng, Meng Min and other clansmen who stayed in the clan, it was simply incomparable.

Therefore, Meng Jian actually supports Meng Zhong, Meng Hu, and Meng Sui to go to other countries to make a move, and it doesn't matter whether they can gain a foothold there, even if they flee back to Song from Zhao State in embarrassment like the previous time, the key is that the horizons of these juniors have been broadened a lot, which is far from being able to be brought by nesting in a small place like Mengyi.

"There shouldn't be much chance ...... for the time being"

Meng Zhong truthfully explained to the elders.

In his heart, he actually intended to go to Wei to take a turn, first, to increase his knowledge, and secondly, to try to see if he could make Wei form an alliance with Song.

I have to say that Wei has always been a place where storms and clouds meet, and many major events that are enough to affect the entire Central Plains pattern have the participation of Wei, or in other words, Wei has been involved.

But at the same time, Wei was also the country with the most fierce domestic intrigue among the Central Plains countries.

If Meng Zhong had been born ten years earlier, he would have had the opportunity to go to Wei and see the intrigue between Zhang Yi, Tian Xu, and Gongsun Yan for the Wei Minister.

Zhang Yi, needless to say, was once a husband who "just one person is enough to make all countries fearful", but since he was expelled from the Qin State by King Yingdang of Qin, who looked down on lobbyists, Zhang Yi has since faded the aura on his body and returned to his homeland, that is, the Wei State.

And at this time in the Wei State, there was also his enemy "rhinoceros" Gongsun Yan.

The grievances and grievances between Zhang Yi and Gongsun Yan have to be said to be the most talked about miracle in contemporary times.

Originally, Gongsun Yan was the prime minister of Qin, advocating "Lian Heng pro-Qin", and his opponents at that time were Su Qin during the Zhao Su Marquis period of the Zhao State, and Hui Shi during the Wei Hui King period, and the latter two advocated "conniving against the Qin".

It is worth mentioning that the momentum of the "Six Kingdoms to Resist Qin" originally created by Su Qin was destroyed by Gongsun Yan - Gongsun Yan persuaded Qi to take the opportunity to attack Zhao, which made Zhao Suhou question Su Qin and forced Su Qin to flee to Yan.

Subsequently, Su Qin's younger brother Zhang Yi came out of nowhere, seized the handle of Gongsun Yan, replaced the latter as Qin Xiang, and soon came to Wei to force Wei Xiang Huishi away, wanting to force Wei to submit to Qin.

At this time, in order to take revenge on Zhang Yi and the Qin State, Gongsun Yan came to the Wei State one step ahead of Zhang Yi, and succeeded Hui Shi to carry the banner of "Joining Forces to Resist Qin" and resolutely resisting the pro-Qin forces led by Zhang Yi.

In the end, Zhang Yi was expelled from Wei by Gongsun Yan, and Gongsun Yan pulled back a game.

As for Tian Xu, he was a powerful minister of Wei.

He had a close personal relationship with Hui Shi, so when Zhang Yi was in Wei, Tian Xu also helped Gongsun Yan against Zhang Yi.

However, after Zhang Yi was expelled from the Wei state, Tian Xu and Gongsun Yan became political enemies, the former seized on the defeat of Gongsun Yan in organizing the "Five Kingdoms to Attack Qin", and slandered Gongsun Yan in front of Wei Xiang, the king of Wei, causing Gongsun Yan to lose the trust of the monarch and had to defect to Korea, and soon after became the minister of Han.

But then again, Gongsun Yan is not the kind of person who is willing to suffer, before going to Korea, he recommended Tian Wen, the son of Qi State, to serve as Wei Xiang in front of Wei Xiangwang Wei Hei. [PS: At that time, Tian Wen's father, Qi Xiang Tian Ying, was not dead, so Tian Wen could not be called Xue Gong. 】

So soon after, a battle between Tian Wen, the son of Qi, and Tian Xu, the son of Wei, was launched in Wei.

In the following years, Gongsun Yan, who returned to Wei again after Korea's defeat at the Qin State to try to compete for the phase, and Zhang Yi, who was expelled from the country by King Yingdang of Qin, had no choice but to return to Wei to compete for the phase and try to re-realize his ambitions.

It is worth mentioning that Tian Xu and Gongsun Yan both have a very good friendship with Hui Shi, if Meng Zhong was born ten years earlier and defected to Wei, as long as he does not participate in the competition between these two for Wei Xiang, if Tian Xu and Gongsun Yan want to come to Hui Shi's face, they will not target him.

By the way, Meng Zhong can also have the opportunity to meet Zhang Yi, the husband of the world.

But unfortunately, now is not the best time to go to Wei.

First, Tian Xu had already died of illness, and Gongsun Yan was also designed by Tian Xu earlier, and then killed by the King of Wei by mistake, and even her eldest husband Zhang Yi died of depression in Wei when he realized that he could not realize his ambitions in Wei.

The dignified "rhino head" Gongsun Yan and the current husband Zhang Yi have all passed away.

The death of these two seems to announce the end of an era.

The end of an era that belongs to the columnists and lobbyists.

As for the second reason, it is even more crucial.

That is, the person who is now serving as Wei Xiang is the person who previously had a deep hatred with Meng Zhong in Zhao State, Xue Gongtian Wen.

As far as Meng Zhong knows, Tian Wen served as the minister of Wei twice, the first time was when he was at the age of being a weak crown, and was invited to Wei to serve as the minister of state by Gongsun Yan in order to take revenge on Tian Xu.

Of course, Tian Wen was still too young at that time, and Wei was more interested in the strength of his father Tian Ying - after all, Tian Ying was the minister of Qi at that time.

Relying on the influence of his father Tian Ying, even Tian Wei could not drive Tian Wen away from Wei State, until Tian Wen's father Tian Ying passed away, Tian Wen took the initiative to resign from the position of Wei Xiang and returned to Qi to inherit the family business.

Soon after, Qin learned of Tian Wen and asked Tian Wen to come to Qin to serve as the prime minister.

It was this journey to the Qin State that almost caused Tian Wen to die in the Qin State.

Therefore, after escaping from death, Tian Wen hated Qin deeply, he was first in Qi State, and was appointed as Qi Xiang by Qi Wang Tiandi, who was guilty of sending Tian Wen to Qin State, and then sent an envoy to Wei State, served as Wei Minister for the second time, united the three kingdoms of Qi, Wei and Han, and launched his revenge on Qin - that is, the time when Kuang Zhang, a famous general of Qi, led the armies of Qi, Wei and Han to attack Qin a few years ago.

According to this rough calculation, Xue Gongtianwen has been in Wei for nearly ten years, and it is conceivable that his influence in Wei can be imagined.

If Meng Zhong dared to go to Wei at this time, it would be no different from seeking his own death - once in Zhao State, because Zhao's master's father, Zhao Wang He, Anyang Jun, Zhao Zhang, including Zhao Xiangfeiyi and others were all on Meng Zhong's side, Meng Zhong was able to make Tian Wen lose face, but in Wei State, it was almost equivalent to Xue Gong Tianwen's territory.

If Tian Wen insisted on killing Meng Zhong, would the monarchs and ministers of Wei who had no friendship with Meng Zhong come to intercede at the cost of offending Xue Gong Tian Wen?

Impossible!

Therefore, now is not the time to go to Wei, unless things take a turn for the better.

After listening to Meng Zhong's statement, Elder Meng Jian nodded suddenly, and immediately had to sigh for it, feeling that these old people did not understand the current situation in the countries as well as the juniors in the clan.

It is worth mentioning that then the elder Meng Jian also talked to Meng Zhong about one thing, that is, Meng Zhong's marriage partner.

"Ah Zhong, a few days ago, you just returned to the clan, and the clan was also busy celebrating the New Year, but the old man forgot about it, and now I just want to ask you, what do you think about your marriage with the daughter of the Le family?"

"Lotus?"

Meng Zhong was stunned, and then remembered that when he went to Zhao Country three years ago, it seemed that the elder in front of him had arranged a marriage for him, and the object was the youngest daughter of the patriarch of the Le clan, Le Guo, Le Yan.

"Isn't the woman married yet?" Meng Zhong asked in surprise.

Hearing this, Meng Jian chuckled and said: "You are the eldest disciple of Master Zhuang, and the patriarch of the Le clan naturally hopes to marry his daughter to you, but you kid is too ignorant of etiquette, and he has been to Zhao Country for nearly three years, and he did not mention this marriage during the period, so that the daughter of the Le clan is getting older every year, and the Le clan is not the first to break the contract...... Let's see what to do. ”

On the side, Meng Sui said in surprise: "I remember, Le's daughter is one year older than Ah Zhong, and now Ah Zhong is eighteen, that is, the other party is nineteen years old?" ”

"Wow!" Meng Hu was also coaxing.

After seeing the excitement and not being afraid of big things, Meng Zhong also felt a little headache at the moment.

Indeed, whether it was recommended by Meng or his mother Ge Shi, the woman named Le Yan was mentioned at the beginning, but the other party was only sixteen years old at the time, although he was one year older than Meng Zhong, but ...... I'm only sixteen years old!

Therefore, Meng Zhong actually resisted this marriage in his heart, and it happened that at that time, his brother-in-law Hui Ang came to visit and mentioned the trip to Zhao State, so Meng Zhong took Meng Hu and Meng Sui to Zhao State, so that he forgot about it.

Looking back now, this thing is indeed not authentic, not to mention anything else, at least the woman named Le Yan was delayed by him for three years in vain.

Seeing that Meng Zhong showed a look of guilt and embarrassment on his face, Meng Jian said with a smile: "Ah Zhong, in fact, the old man thinks that you and other young people should indeed wander around, but this does not conflict with getting married, you see, you went to Zhao Kingdom for nearly three years, fortunately, your mother also adopted Meng Yan, otherwise, wouldn't your mother be alone?" But if you get married, you can rest assured that more than one person will take care of you at home, right? If I can have one or two more children, I think Ge will be even more pleased, isn't that the truth? ”

As he said this, his eyes glanced at Meng Sui from time to time, apparently he also said it to his grandson Meng Sui.

"This ...... Let me think about it. ”

Meng Zhong said sneeringly.

"Okay." Meng Jian nodded and said: "Whether it succeeds or not, you'd better come up with a result as soon as possible, and the old man can give Le's an explanation, after all, Le's girl has indeed been delayed by you for nearly three years, otherwise with her age, I'm afraid there will be two or three children at this time." ”

"Yes Yes ......"

Meng Zhong said yes again and again, and saw the opportunity to leave with Meng Hu and Meng Sui as if they had escaped.

I have to say that such a major event in life can only escape for a while, no, within two days, Ge Shi mentioned this matter at the dinner table.

"I've been busy with the New Year in recent days, and I forgot to mention one thing to you...... Ah Zhong, when do you plan to arrange your marriage with Le's daughter, Le Yan? ”

At that time, Meng Zhong was lowering his head to pick up rice, and when he heard the words, he almost squirted out the rice in his mouth.

He said in his heart, I haven't thought about it yet, why did you give it first?

After thinking about it, he said cautiously: "Mother, the child didn't want to get married so early, the child wanted to be ...... in two years."

"Two more years?" Ge Shi frowned and said, "In two years, Le's girl will be in her twenties......" As she spoke, she looked at Meng Zhong suspiciously, frowned and asked, "Ah Zhong, don't you want to regret your marriage?" This is not possible! Le's girl has been waiting for you for three years, and she was laughed at by her family, how can you abandon her? ”

"Mother, the child hasn't said anything yet...... Meng Zhong said helplessly.

However, Ge Shi ignored Meng Zhong and said to himself: "In short, it is very good for my mother to look at Le's girl, she is beautiful and has a good personality, you don't know, in the past few years when you are not at home, every spring ploughing and autumn harvest, that girl also brings her family servants to help her mother...... Anyway, it's good to look at your mother, Grandma, do you think your sister-in-law is very good? ”

Meng Yan, who always lowered her head and didn't interject, raised her head when she heard the words, pouted and hesitated for a moment, and then whispered: "It's still ...... It's ok, it looks ok......"

"Why do you talk like that, kid?" Ge Shi glanced at Meng Yan reproachfully, and then said to Meng Zhong: "In short, Zhong'er, you can't let that girl down." ”

"Disappointed? I've never even seen it......

Sighing secretly, Meng Zhong thought for a while and said: "That's it, mother, in a few days, I happen to take Ah Yi to the Le clan for a trip, you know, although Ah Yi is from Zhongshan, his ancestors are the Le clan of the Wei State, and the Le clan of the Wei State is derived from the Le clan of my Song Kingdom...... In the meantime, I will meet the woman named Le Yan by the way, if it is appropriate......"

"It's definitely suitable, it's good to look at that girl for my mother. By the way, I'll go with you for my mother when the time comes. ”

"Uh...... All right. ”

Set a small goal first, such as remembering in 1 second: book guest residence
