After a while, Master Zhao led Meng Zhong and Le Yi to the outside of the camp in person and greeted Tian Yu and Gongsun Min.
I have to say that with the prestige of Master Zhao's father in Zhao and in the Central Plains, he can come out to greet him in person, which really gives Tian Yu and Gongsun Min enough face, even Tian Yu and Gongsun Min think so in their hearts.
After seeing each other and saluting, Lord Zhao's father invited Tian Yu and Gongsun Min to his tent, and instructed the soldiers to prepare wine and food.
Because it is in the army, the dishes will naturally not be rich, so Zhao's father borrowed the way of the Hu people, set up a bronze tripod in the tent, put water in the ding, put a deer offered by Zhao a few days ago, and chatted with a small copper stove, and drank with dried goods such as dried meat and preserved fruits, while waiting for the venison to be cooked.
"The camp is shabby, the hospitality is not good, and please don't be surprised." After inviting Tian Yu and Gongsun Min to sit down, Master Zhao said with a smile.
"Where, where." Tian Zhen and Gongsun Min said as they looked curiously at Meng Zhong and Le Yi who were sitting under Master Zhao's father, and were surprised that the "accompanying seats" were actually two young people who were about fifteen or sixteen years old, and they thought that at least they would have people like Zhao Zhang and Tian Buyu.
To be honest, this message is not good, because it means that Master Zhao doesn't really care about the purpose of the two of them, and the courtesy is just out of respect for the two of them.
"I heard that Mr. Tian is taking care of Xue Gong's family business in Xue Yi......"
Taking advantage of the time between cooking wine and meat, Master Zhao took the lead in opening the conversation.
Tian Yu smiled when he heard this: "I can't imagine that the old and decrepit name can also reach the ears of Master Zhao......
"Mr. Tian said this." Master Zhao said with a smile: "In today's world, no one knows that Mr. Tian is Jing Guojun's confidant, and even Xue Gong (Tian Wen) treats Mr. with the courtesy of an elder...... Xue Gong can have today's prestige, and Mr. has made great contributions. β
"Master Zhao's words are serious." Tian Yu hurriedly said humbly: "This is all the credit of "Wei Division", "Xiahou Zhang", "Feng Zhen (xuΔn)", "Gongsun Hong", these young and handsome men are Xue Gong's right-hand man today, as for the old decay, half cut into the earth, where is worthy of the praise of Master Zhao. β
The "Wei Division", "Xiahou Zhang", "Feng Chen", and "Gongsun Hong" mentioned in his mouth are all disciples under Xue Gongtian Wen's seat, and it is said that Tian Wen once raised 3,000 disciples in Xue Di, as long as you are a skilled "scholar", you can go to him, eat and live in Tianwen Mansion, no matter how long you stay.
It has to be said that this standard is very low.
You must know that the "scholars" here are not "scholars" like Meng Zhong, nor are they "bachelors" who have mastered at least one subject of knowledge, such as "Confucian scholars" and "Taoist priests", most of them are some "scholars" who can't stand scrutiny.
For example, if a farmer doesn't want to farm anymore, he buys a sword and learns a few swordsmanship, and he can also go to Tian Wen's house and call himself a "wanderer" and "a warrior".
Therefore, there will be "chicken and dog thieves" under Xue Gongtianwen's hands, to put it bluntly, that is, people who can learn to crow chickens, and people who are good at stealing - not to mention, thanks to these two "chicken and dog thieves", Xue Gongtianwen was able to escape from Qin back to Qi.
Even the thieves of chickens and dogs can become Tian Wen's doormen, but you can imagine how low the standard of this "scholar" is, and this has led to a large number of people claiming to be scholars and running to Tian Wen's mansion to cheat and cheat, so that Tian Wen has ten thousand households in Xue Yi, and it is difficult to feed his thousands of customers, and he has to rely on collecting "interest (usury)" in the Yi land to make up for it.
And "Wei Chu", "Xiahou Zhang", "Feng Chen", "Gongsun Hong" and others, that is, the best among the 3,000 diners under Tian Wenmen, are all really talented and learned.
After chatting for a while, the wine was the first to boil, and at this time, Master Zhao, Tian Yu, and Gongsun Min chatted about Xue Yi while drinking hot wine.
According to Tian Xuan, Xue Yi had already been captured by the army of the Song State at this time.
This made Meng Zhong, who was listening quietly, very surprised, surprised by the speed with which he Song captured Xue Yi.
"Could it be that Master Zhao's father doesn't know?"
Seeing the look of surprise on Master Zhao's face, Tian Yu faintly said with a little deep meaning: "This time the Song State sent troops to Xue Yi, and Song Wangyan personally led the army, and his subordinates Jing Hui, Dai Busheng, Dai Yingzhi and other Sima led the army to advance violently......"
Hearing this, Master Zhao nodded secretly: Sure enough, the king of Song is reliable, and if he crusades against the Qi State, he only looks at the armies of the Zhao and Song countries, as for the Yan State...... He really lacked some faith.
"Is Song Wangyan personally in charge of the army and supervising the war?"
Pretending not to hear the faint ridicule in Tian Yu's words, Master Zhao changed the topic and asked, "What about the Song Kingdom?" β
"How do I know?"
Tian Yan pondered for a while, and said: "It is said that Song Yan has been passed on to the crown prince Daiwu, and Hui'an and Xue Juzhou are the assistants......"
Hearing this, not only Lord Zhao's father was surprised, but even Meng Zhong felt a little incredible in his heart.
Prince Dai Wu, Hui An, and Xue Juzhou, these three people are no strangers to Meng Zhong.
Of course, only his brother-in-law Hui Ang is really familiar, and the crown prince Dai Wu and Xue Juzhou, Meng Zhong only heard Hui Ang mention it at the beginning - Xue Juzhou, that is, Hui Ang recommended him as the "prince teacher", please teach the prince Dai Wu with all his heart.
"Song Wang Yan...... He actually passed the throne to the crown prince Dai Wu?"
After listening to Tian Zhen's words, Meng Zhong more or less changed his opinion of Song Wangyan.
I remember that once upon a time, Song Wangyan once said to him in person that he sent troops to attack Teng in order to make Song more powerful, but at that time, Meng Zhong did not believe Song Wangyan's words very much, and privately still thought that this was Song Wangyan's "royal desire".
But now, when he learned that Song Wangyan also followed the example of Lord Zhao's father and passed the throne to the crown prince Dai Wu, so that he could concentrate on leading troops to attack the territory, Meng Zhong had to admit that Song Wangyan was probably not the kind of person who coveted royal power.
Like Zhao's father, he is trying to make his country stronger - these two are both very enterprising heroes.
I have to say that Meng Zhong's mood is a little complicated at this moment.
After that, the topic went around and around, and then it came to the matter of "Zhao Yan and Song Three Kingdoms Fighting Qi", Tian Yu sighed with emotion: "Zhao and Qi countries, how did they get to such a situation today? Back then, when the Marquis of Zhao Suhou was still in power, Zhao and Qi joined hands to resist other countries......"
Listening to Tian Yu's words, Master Zhao's eyes flashed with a hint of softness and reminiscence.
The Marquis of Zhao in Tian Yu's mouth, that is, Zhao Yu, the father of Master Zhao, is also the person who he longs for and admires the most in the mind of Master Zhao.
After the Battle of Guiling, the Marquis of Zhao was still very strong at that time, while Zhao and Qi were relatively weak, so in the "Battle of Guiling", the Zhao State, which was protected by the Qi generals Tian Ji and Sun Bin's "besieged Wei to save Zhao", naturally became close to the Qi State and helped each other.
In the eighth year of King Qi Wei, Qi was attacked by Chu, so he sent an envoy "Chun Yu ι«‘ (kΕ«n)" to ask Zhao for help.
Chun Yu is the son-in-law of Qi - the custom of Qi is that the eldest daughter of the family is not allowed to marry, and must preside over the sacrifice at home, otherwise it is not good for the family's fortune.
It has always been a shame to join the woman's family, and it is difficult for the son-in-law to be valued by others.
Chun's name "ι«‘" actually refers to the fact that he was subjected to a very insulting criminal law at the time, that is, shaving off the hair around the top of his head - probably because of his status as a "son-in-law", after all, the social status of "son-in-law" and "stepfather" at that time was very low. [PS: I have explained it before, and I will not explain it again.] γ
Although he came from a humble background, his appearance was not good, and his height was less than seven feet, but Chun Yuyu's talent was not under the other short husband "Yanzi" in Qi State.
As early as the time of King Qi Wei's father, "Qi Huan Gong Tian Wu (not Jiang Qi's Qi Huan Gong)", he was ordered by Qi Huan Gong to establish Jixia School Palace, becoming one of the earliest "Mr. Jixia", and cultivating batches of talents for Qi State.
And when King Qi Wei succeeded to the throne, because this king was initially addicted to wine, the Qi State was repeatedly attacked by other countries.
At that time, Chun Yuyu vaguely sarcastically admonished King Qi Wei: "There is a big bird in the country, perched on the main hall, and it has not flown or song for three years, do you know why?" β
King Qi Wei knew that this was a "blockbuster" allusion during the reign of King Chuzhuang, so he replied: "If this bird does not fly, it will soar into the sky; If you don't make a sound, it's a blockbuster. β
After that, King Qi Wei worked hard, changed the law to become strong, reused Zou Ji internally to rectify internal affairs, and externally purged the military power to meet the princes, which made the Qi State gradually stronger.
At that time, Chun Yuji, whose status was still above Zou Ji, Tian Ji and others, visited Zhao with rich gifts, and implored Zhao Suhou, who had just succeeded to the throne, to send troops to help Qi resist Chu, so Zhao Suhou's life of fighting horses began.
After the Battle of Maling, Wei gradually weakened and lost its supremacy, while Zhao, due to the wise governance of Zhao Suhou, rose rapidly, which caused a rift in the relationship between Zhao and Qi.
The state of Qi, which initially united with Zhao to attack Wei, gradually changed its national policy, hoping to unite with Wei to suppress Zhao.
In the eighteenth year of the Marquis of Zhao Su, Gongsun Yan came forward to persuade Qi to unite with Wei to attack Zhao, which caused the relationship between Zhao and Qi to begin to break down.
Due to the strength of the Marquis of Zhao Su, after his death, in the early days when Zhao's father had just succeeded to the throne, the five kingdoms of Qin, Chu, Yan, Qi, and Wei jointly suppressed Zhao, and wanted to take advantage of the new monarch of Zhao to completely cut off the momentum of Zhao's rise.
But it is a pity that the father of Zhao who succeeded to the throne was a majestic and majestic man who was no less than his father Zhao Suhou, who inherited Zhao Suhou's efforts to gradually become stronger Zhao, and operated with a series of power schemes to make Zhao more powerful, so that to this day, the strength of Zhao is only in Qin and Qi, and even Wei and Chu can not be compared.
"I have come here by the order of the monarch this time, hoping that the two countries of Zhao and Qi can rebuild the harmony and friendship of the Marquis of Zhao Su and resolve the current military disaster...... For this reason, our Qi country is willing to cede the "Qiancheng County" to your country again. Arching his hand towards Master Zhao's father, Gongsun Min Zhengse said.
"Senjo-gun?"
Even if it was Lord Zhao's father, he couldn't help but be stunned when he heard the words.
