Chapter Ninety-Four: A Great Future
The fall of the Yan Kingdom actually changed many things, at least Ying Zheng took another step forward for the unification of the Six Kingdoms, and it was a big step. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
A month after the destruction of the Yan Kingdom, Meng Tian returned to Xianyang with his own soldiers, and Chu Nan and Shang Qiu and other shadow guards were naturally inconvenient to appear with him, so both sides tacitly set off from different roads, but they returned to Xianyang one after the other.
Meng Tian's return was naturally the object of reverence by the Qin people, and the Xianyang Gate was filled with waiting officials early, led by Prime Minister Li Si, to convey the will of His Majesty the Emperor, and then Meng Tian entered the palace to personally report to Yingzheng everything about the attack of Yan State.
The conversation between the two monarchs and ministers was a bit long, and it lasted for several hours, and even Ying Zheng kept Meng Tian to eat in the palace, which is of course a great honor, no matter where it is? It is a blessing for a country that the monarch and the minister are happy.
The two brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi have always been the courtiers that Yingzheng relied on, one is a general of the empire, and the other is a nobleman, since the Yan Dynasty, Meng Tian can be said to be the most dazzling figure among the three major generals of the empire, and on the second day after he returned to Xianyang, there were countless courtiers who came to the Meng family's mansion with heavy gifts to visit Meng Tian.
In front of the Meng family's mansion, countless carriages and countless people gathered.
It's just that in front of the Mengjia Mansion, countless officials walked away disappointed.
Meng Yi is the secretary of the empire, compared to his brother Meng Tian, he is better at government affairs, is Yingzheng's right-hand man, Meng Yi looks extremely elegant, with a common Zhongzheng bun on the top of his head, and his clothes are also very elegant, but at this time he is sorry.
"My brother is really no longer in the house, you ask me where to go? I don't know if I come back.
The officials who came to visit the palace were all important ministers of the empire of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries, even he Meng Yi had to entertain him well, and countless gifts were carried in by the servants of the palace, and he asked the stewards of the palace around him to write down the gifts brought by these officials one by one, and they would be paid off in the future.
What Meng Yi said was not a lie, since Meng Tian had been with His Majesty from the palace for a night, he got up early alone on the second day and went out alone. , without any minions.
He rarely did not go to the army, but came to Zhang Han's mansion not far away for the first time, and sat opposite to Zhang Han.
The two generals of the empire met briefly and lightly, if others saw the two generals of the empire meeting in private, I don't know how many people would have to discuss, Meng Tian was not afraid of what others would say? It's just that sometimes the pen and ink of a civil official are sometimes sharper than the sword in the hands of a soldier, and he is afraid of trouble, so he does not bring a servant.
Zhang Han held the teacup in his hand, but the warm tea in the cup of tea did not drink a sip.
"Meng Tian came to General Zhang's mansion this time to thank the general!"
Zhang Han put down the teacup in his hand, "General Meng doesn't need to thank him, being able to help the general and do things for the empire is what my generation of Qin soldiers should do!" ”
Meng Tian was silent, Zhang Han looked at Meng Tian in front of him and seemed to have something to say, and said, "General Meng has something to say, why don't you say it directly?" ”
Meng Tian arched his hand, "It's not a secret, there is indeed one more thing besides thanking you today?" ”
"Oh!" Zhang Han was slightly surprised.
"I want to ask the general for someone!"
"Who do you want?"
"Chu Nan!" Meng Tian said bluntly, he has never been a person who can beat around the bush, and it is really rare to say so much today.
"It seems that this kid has a lot of outstanding performances in Yan Kingdom!"
"Not only is it outstanding, whether it is breaking through the Thistle Capital or chasing Yan Wangxi on the grassland, it can be called perfect, I will definitely not treat him badly when this kind of person comes to our army!" Meng Tian said.
Zhang Han looked embarrassed.
Meng Tian also understands this truth, it is really not a pleasant thing to snatch people from others, let alone an outstanding talent in the army.
"If General Zhang is reluctant, then Meng is not a person who uses strong words!"
"Since it's the person the general wants, then we still have to ask my opinion!"
Zhang Han ordered to the shadow guards outside: "Go and find that kid from Chu Nan for me!" ”
The man outside the door sped away.
Chu Nan didn't know what the general was looking for him, but he didn't dare to be the slightest bit lazy, who told him that the handle was still in the hands of others?
Chu Nan came to the front of the house, straightened his shirt and lightly buttoned the door, and only went in after getting permission.
But he didn't expect Meng Tian to be here, the two imperial generals looked at him with different meanings in their eyes, and Chu Nan was a little nervous.
Zhang Han got up and walked out to look at Chu Nandao, "General Meng wants to ask you some questions, you can answer them in a while!" ”
"I wonder what the general is looking for me?"
Meng Tian's eyes were full of appreciation, "You performed very well in the war against Yan, so I want you to join the Meng family's army!" And be able to serve as a general in the army! ”
Of course, it is an extremely good choice to be able to join the Mengjia army, not to mention the general, it is a big man he has never seen in the army, he never thought that one day he would become a big man in his eyes, if the commander of the army knows, he will be happy for me! He thought.
"What about your decision?" Meng Tian looked at him with hope in his eyes.
"I'm sorry, I refuse!"
Meng Tian was stunned and asked, "Why?" ”
"'Cause I'm tired!"
Yes, he was tired, and he was tired of watching the brothers around him who had been born and died one by one.
"It's just that I have one more thing to ask the general!"
"What's the matter?"
"I have a friend who is currently in the Golden Fire Cavalry, his name is Gu Peng, he turned out to be a horse thief, I hope the general will not embarrass him!"
Meng Tian looked at Chu Nan and said, "Do you think I will be that kind of person?" ”
"It's not!" Chu Nan said affirmatively.
Meng Tian returned in vain, but he would not give up.
"If you think about it, you can contact me at any time if you change your mind, and I am always welcome by the Mengjiajun."
"Thank you so much, General!" Chu Nan saluted and sent Meng Tian out.
Seeing Meng Tian go away, Zhang Han only appeared by his side at this time, "Don't tell me that you are really tired of bullshit, this sentence is too sour." ”
"I didn't expect that the dignified General Zhang Han also has the habit of listening to people's corners, and it is not good for the general's reputation to spread out."
Zhang Han pretended to be angry, "Don't talk to me about this." ”
Of course Chu Nan didn't think so, it was just an excuse, maybe it wasn't an excuse, who knows?
Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhang Han didn't intend to ask, but just said.
"Coming to the Shadow Guard tomorrow?"
"What's the matter?"
Zhang Han smiled mysteriously, "I have a great future for you." ”
"Is the future bigger than the general!"
"Much bigger!" Zhang Han said with a smile, and his voice showed the elder.
