On the fifth day of the sixth month, at the same time that Le Yi told Meng Zhong that "Zhao Ben tried to buy the soldiers of Xinwei", Yang Wenjun Zhao Bao took the deputy general Zhao Ben and invited Zhao Xiangfeiyi.

Fei Yi personally greeted Zhao Bao and Zhao Ben to the mansion, and ordered the servants in the mansion to serve wine and some preserved fruits for wine.

After the servant retreated, he asked Zhao Bao, "Yang Wenjun, I don't know what the result is?" ”

Zhao Bao shook his head and said, "That kid didn't agree. ”

The "kid" in his mouth is obviously referring to Meng Zhong.

Hearing this, Fei Yi also frowned and pondered.

The reason for this whole thing is that Lord Zhao ordered five hundred Xinwei to enter the palace, although he claimed to protect him, but I have to say that these five hundred Xinwei made many Zhao Wang He and his courtiers very worried.

The ordinary 500 soldiers are fine, but they are the Xinwei Army, which is trained by the Wei Wushu, and the elite soldiers who have attacked tens of thousands of Qi troops at night after the first battle of Zhu Ke and the whole army was triumphant, leaving these 500 people in the palace of Handan, which is an extremely dangerous thing in the eyes of Zhao Cheng, Li Dui, and even Feiyi and Zhao Bao - maybe when, Master Zhao will order these 500 Rui soldiers to take Zhao Wang He hostage.

Therefore, Anpingjun Zhao Cheng and Fengyangjun Li Dui both believe that some measures should be taken.

For example, "plotting rebellion" against Meng Zhong, Le Yi and others, or bribing Xinwei's soldiers.

This matter was finally entrusted to Yang Wenjun Zhao Bao, after all, the five hundred Xinwei soldiers were once all soldiers under Yang Wenjun Zhao Bao.

I didn't expect it......

"Yesterday, I sent my henchmen to contact several commanders of the Xinwei Army."

Under Fei Yi's attentive look, Zhao Ben lowered his voice and said: "Those two tun chiefs are all soldiers I deliberately planted in the letter guard before, one is called Zheng Yong and the other is called Wei Jian. At first, I wanted them to deliberately cause trouble and cause some trouble for that kid, but I didn't expect that the kid was clever enough to deter the five hundred people...... Later, the boy reconciled with the prince, and I did not contact the two again. ”

On the side, Yang Wenjun Zhao Bao saw Feiyi's gaze looking at him, so he chuckled and said, "There's no need to offend a talented young man, isn't it?" ”

Fei Yi smiled and nodded, and immediately set his eyes on Zhao Ben again, but saw Zhao Ben and say: "Yesterday, I sent my henchmen to contact Zheng Yong and Wei Xuan...... I suspect that most of them reported the matter to Meng Zhong and Le Yi. ”

Hearing this, Feiyi's face showed a little incredulity.

You must know that a few months ago, Zheng Yong, Wei Jian and other Xinwei soldiers were all soldiers under the command of Yang Wenjun and Zhao Bao, but after only a few months, these soldiers were loyal to Meng Zhong and Le Yi to such a point?

"It's not surprising."

Yang Wenjun Zhao Bao shook his head and said: "Xinwei is the guard of Lord Zhao's father, and his status is quite high; His Sima Mengzhong and Zuo Sima Leyi's boys, who are both talented and not greedy for money, often distribute the property rewarded by Zhao's father to the soldiers, and in the long run, the soldiers are naturally loyal to them, not to mention that those boys also led the Xinwei army to attack tens of thousands of Qi camps at night...... There is a chance to get ahead, and the generals are sympathetic to the soldiers, how many people will choose to betray? ”

"Hmm......"

Fei Yi nodded slightly when he heard this, and he also had a headache in his heart.

At this moment, he regretted that he had helped Meng Zhong in the first place, so that the five hundred Xinwei soldiers trained by the latter had now become a trouble.

"Yang Wenjun has no other way?" Fei Yi asked with a frown.

Hearing this, Yang Wenjun Zhao Bao spread his hands and smiled: "My youngest daughter is seven years older than that kid, and she has already been married, what else can I do?" ”

"Yang Wenjun doesn't want to joke." Fei Yi said with a frown.

"Forgive sins, forgive sins." Zhao Bao laughed twice, and then said with a straight face: "According to my observation, that kid is very affectionate, and I'm afraid that the things of wealth can't make him tempted......"

Hearing Zhao Bao's words, Feiyi's heart gradually sank.

To tell the truth, Fei Yi was very optimistic about Meng Zhong from the beginning, and when Meng Zhong came to Zhao with Li Shi, the envoy of the Song State, Fei Yi got along with Meng Zhong quite well.

It's just that he didn't expect that Meng Zhong was later appointed as a guard by Lord Zhao's father, and then served as a guard Sima.

If there is no such thing, Fei Yi hopes to let this son assist Zhao Wang He, after all, the people behind Meng Zhong are quite extensive, Zhuangzi, Hui An, Hui Shi, Meng Ke, Kuang Zhang, quite incredible energy.

It is no exaggeration to say that just by virtue of Meng Zhong's relationship with Hui Shi and Hui An's uncle and nephew, he can be treated as a guest in Wei State, because the current minister of Wei State, "Tian Xu", used to have an excellent relationship with Hui Shi; And with his relationship with Meng Ke and Kuang Zhang, Meng Zhong has a lot to do even if he arrives in the Qi State.

These are connections that ordinary people can't dream of.

Not to mention that this son is talented, and his age is similar to that of Zhao Wanghe.

『…… Huh?'

Slightly stunned, Fei Yi suddenly had an idea: Why don't I recommend this son to the king?

After a while, after Yang Wenjun Zhao Bao and Zhao Ben said goodbye, Fei Yi thought about the idea repeatedly in the house alone, and the more he thought about it, the more feasible he felt.

He felt that as long as Meng Zhong and Zhao Wanghe were close, wouldn't all the problems be solved?

As for the danger, anyway, Meng Zhong was now able to enter and leave the palace freely with the identity of the guard Sima next to Lord Zhao's father, even if he was recommended to Zhao Wanghe's side, how much threat could it increase?

Thinking of this, Fei Yi immediately went to the palace and asked to see Zhao Wanghe.

At this time, Zhao Wang He was reading the courtier's book in the palace.

As the new monarch of Zhao who has succeeded to the throne for more than three years, Zhao Wang He has now begun to review the sonata of his courtiers, but not all of them - Zhao Xiangfeiyi will pick some educational recitals for the new monarch to try to review, and then he will guide them.

More often, Zhao Wanghe is reading the decrees of other countries and thinking about the pros and cons.

This is also the homework that Feiyi left to Zhao Wanghe.

And today, just as Zhao Wanghe was reading the book under the guidance of two palace scholars, he saw Zhao Xiangfeiyi coming to the palace.

Seeing this, Zhao Wang He immediately got up to greet him, and was shocked that Feiyi hurriedly took a few steps and saluted this monarch first.

"Your Majesty, there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, if you get up and greet you, you will make others laugh at you......"

Fei Yi once again persuaded Zhao Wanghe.

King Zhao He said with a smile when he heard this: "The widow got up to greet him, just because the fat minister is an old minister respected by the widow, and you are not only the widow's courtier, but also the widow's teacher...... When a student salutes the teacher, how can others laugh at him? ”

Hearing Zhao Wanghe's sincere words, Fei Yi was very moved in his heart.

I have to say that this is the reason why he did not hesitate to disobey the Zhao master who was once loyal, and he also did everything to support Zhao Wanghe.

After nodding movingly, Fei Yi said to the two scholars beside him: "Let's step back and rest first, I have something important to discuss with you." ”

The two bachelors gave up.

Seeing this, Zhao Wanghe looked at Fei Yi curiously, but heard Fei Yi ask with a smile: "Your Majesty, do you remember that young man named Meng Zhong?" ”

"Yes." Zhao Wanghe nodded.

Indeed, he was deeply impressed by Meng Zhong, because Meng Zhong was the same age as him, but when he was at the palace banquet, Meng Zhong was qualified to sit at the table, which made Zhao Wang He very impressed with Meng Zhong.

Seeing this, Fei Yi asked with a smile: "If the minister asks this son to accompany the king for a few days, what will the king think?" ”

Hearing this, Zhao Wanghe's face showed a little surprise.

To be honest, Fei Yi didn't recommend talents to him before, but a young man who was not yet a weak crown was really never.

After thinking about it, Zhao Wanghe asked, "This person ...... Is it talented? ”

Fei Yi nodded and said: "Meng Zhong is a disciple of Zhuangzi and Huizi, and he is a scholar of Taoism, but a few days ago, according to Kuang Zhang of Qi State, this son somehow has something to do with Confucianism, and it seems that he was also accepted as a disciple by Mencius...... As for talent, the king believes that he has also heard of it, and this person trained a new army of 500 people for Lord Zhao's father, called 'Xinwei'. ”

"I've heard of it." Zhao Wanghe nodded.

Seeing this, Fei Yi continued: "It was this Xinwei who led this force of only 500 people, and when this person attacked the Qi State this time, he attacked the camp of tens of thousands of Qi troops at night and defeated the Qi army in one fell swoop...... In the battle merit book sent by Lord Zhao's father, this person ranked second. ”

Thinking of the thin military achievements, Fei Yi sighed secretly in his heart.

In his opinion, Meng Zhong's credit is second, which is no problem, the problem lies in the first place, Anyang Jun Zhao Zhang.

Meng Zhong defeated tens of thousands of people with 500 people, and this feat was only second, and Anyang Jun Zhao Zhang, just because he captured Pingyuan Yi and Zhuke County, ranked first - without Meng Zhong's night attack on Qi Ying, how could Anyang Jun Zhao Zhang have a chance to seize Zhuke County?

Fei Yi knew at a glance that Master Zhao's father was building momentum for Anyang Jun Zhao Zhang.

Thinking of something again, Fei Yi is worried.

"Five hundred, defeat tens of thousands of Qi troops?" Zhao Wanghe's eyes widened in surprise.

It's no wonder he was so shocked, after all, there have not been many such things as outnumbering people since ancient times.

Seeing that King Zhao was interested, Fei Yi said with a smile: "Your Excellency might as well summon this person to come and personally ask about the night attack." ”

Zhao Wang He nodded excitedly.

About half an hour later, Meng Zhong received a summons from Zhao Wanghe, ordering him to go to the main hall to see him.

This made Meng Zhong feel quite surprised, so he asked the palace guard who came to herald: "I don't know what happened to the king's summons?" ”

However, the palace guard who gave the order knew something, shook his head and only said that he didn't know.

After thinking about it, Meng Zhong said to the palace guards: "Let me pass over Master Zhao." ”

"Then I'll wait here for Meng Sima, but please don't make you wait for a long time."

I don't know if he was told in advance, or if Meng Zhong's feat of "breaking tens of thousands of Qi troops with 500 guards" has been known to these palace guards, in short, these palace guards are still very polite.

"Okay."

Meng Zhong nodded, and then entered the hall to report the matter to Lord Zhao's father.

At this time, Master Zhao was talking to Que Guanzi in the hall, and when he heard Meng Zhong say this, his expression suddenly became weird.

But he didn't stop it.

After Meng Zhong left, Que Guanzi said to Master Zhao's father, "It seems that those people have already started to act...... There are some things that I think should be decided. ”

"Hmm."

As if he had guessed the mind of the Crane Guanzi, Master Zhao nodded with a sinking face.

"What the gentleman said is that it's been a few days......"
