Chapter 408 [Retainers II]
In front of everyone's eyes, Bai Wu Gengfei generally walked on stage, with an excited expression on his face, like a future lottery player who won a billionaire jackpot.
"Uncle Clan!"
Seeing that Meng Chenggong and Mu Xijing also rushed to the stage with him, Bai Wugeng was very nervous, so he simply knelt in front of Bai Dong with a 'poof' and said loudly: "My nephew has something to say!" ”
Or a cow surnamed Bai, Meng Chenggong sighed unconsciously, he didn't have such a thick face, a middle-aged man in his forties knelt in front of a young man and called uncle, when did the Yongyi Bai family have such a thick skin? Bai Wugeng's ability is not as good as himself. Two thousand Bai family soldiers were also dumbfounded, the Yongyi Bai family has been passed down for more than ten generations, and all generations are old Qin Fengyun figures, although they experienced three rebellions not long ago, but the Bai family stood correctly, innocent and meritorious, although they were deprived of their fiefs and most of their private soldiers, they were still nobles, and the high lord of the West Monarch was obviously right, and the head of the family insisted that he was an uncle, but now he knelt down in front of countless people on the spot? What's going on? Since the Zhou metric system of ceremonial music, if the nobles and doctors are not rewarded for great merit and punished for major crimes, even in the face of the monarch, they do not have to bow down, unless they are kneeling to the heaven and earth, and the king of the West is not?
"Nephew, what are you doing here?" A man in his forties suddenly knelt in front of him, Bai Dong blushed a little, it was really hard to make this product.
"The West Monarch established the city and the land, not the selfishness of one person, but the world for the public, uncle, nephew, nephew"
Bai Wugeng glanced at Bai Dong deeply, and suddenly howled loudly and grabbed the ground with his head: "The family uncle is in the same vein, and it is really a continuation of the nobles." Yongyi Bai's roots are also upright! Uncle Jinzu thinks of China. Willing to brave the bitter cold of the Western Regions, set up a city here, and suppress the country. Wu Gengtian is a descendant of the Bai family, how can you bear the burden of your old man? If you indulge in peace and happiness like this, you will be angry with your ancestors and spurned by your countrymen! Uncle, the Yongyi Bai family has been passed down for 14 generations, and serving the country with loyalty is the foundation of the family! When this is the time of loyalty to the country and filial piety to the family, how can it be posterity! Today, Bai Wugeng implored the clan uncle to collect all the Yongyi people, knowing that he was not the right root, and only hoped that I was a Yongyi people. It's all the private soldiers of the clan uncle's retainers, and I ask the clan uncle to agree, otherwise the nephew will kneel here and die, woo woo woo woo"
It's a big man, his beard is gray, and he actually cries in public, like a cuckoo crying blood, and people who don't know will definitely think that he has just died of his father.
is worthy of Bai Wugeng, what a cheeky face! Everyone in the audience was dumbfounded, and they changed themselves to the patriarch of the Bai family. I'm afraid that I won't be able to do this kind of thing no matter what, Meng Chenggong and Meng Pei glanced at each other. Both of them shook their heads secretly, at the critical moment, it still depends on Bai Wugeng, the gap between us and others is really too big.
"Dean! Mu Xijing was cultivated by the dean, and it was difficult to repay the favor, so he volunteered to be the dean's retainer, but the dean did not allow it, so he knelt on the ground. ”
Thump! Mu Xijing also knelt down, Gan Sheng beside him looked at him, but he turned around and left, what he valued was the business opportunities that Bai Dong brought to the Western Regions after he built the city, but he never thought of becoming a retainer of the Bai family, if this was known by his father, he would not be able to break his legs?
"Xijun, the Meng family wears a sinful body, if there is no Baizi to take care of, all of them will enter the barren mound, Baizi will split the territory and seal the marquis, pass through Xinjiang, deter the Far West, and don't accept others as retainers, if it is not subject to the Meng family, Meng Chenggong will not be able to kneel for a long time"
Meng Chenggong said that he didn't really kneel, the three families of Mengxi and Bai are all noble inheritances, but they have always been headed by the Meng family, although they are now convicted, they are much more backbone than Bai Wugeng.
Is this a clear desire to eat Lao Tzu?
Bai Dong quickly calculated an account, now the Meng family still has 9,000 people left in the Western Regions, although Bai Wugeng only brought 2,000 soldiers, but if the Yongyi Bai family is his own retainer, the big family who stayed in the Qin State will also receive their own 'Yulu' from now on, inside and outside, this is nearly 20,000 people and more than 20,000 mouths open to eat themselves, isn't this a big family to fight local tyrants? No, you can't be tricked!
If you want to highlight the encirclement and make these abacus crackle, you should eat whoever you want, but it's okay to see Bai Wugeng's posture and not move, but he dares to hug his thighs and cry if he is afraid of the slightest change! Anyway, the uncle is called, and it doesn't seem to be a big deal for a forty-year-old nephew to hug his twenty-year-old uncle, not to mention that there are Meng Chenggong and Meng Pei watching him from the side, plus Mu Xijing, a dizzy kid, is simply embattled!
The problem of Bai Dong not having a think tank by his side is evident at this moment, he has always acted as such a person for Yingquliang, and when he encounters something for himself, he has no one to come up with; Xijun Baizi is so famous, but unfortunately there are many masters like Nie Zhu Flea beside him, but there is no one who can give him advice at a critical moment, Meng Ke and Lao Yanjian are useless, they all have the identity of a generation of scholars, and they will not do this kind of thing if they treat themselves as the distinguished guests of the Bai family.
"Senior brother can't!"
Bai Dong was feeling a headache, only to see Sun Bin smiling and stepping up to build the platform, and glanced at Bai Wugeng and Mu Xijing who were kneeling on the stage: "Although you are now the Xijun who has torn the earth and sealed the marquis, but the monarch city has just been built, and the foreign enemy has not retreated, the former has been completed, and the new plan has not yet been developed, at this time, it doesn't hurt to accept a long-term personal guard like Nie Zhu, Mu Xijing is your student, and it is reasonable to enter your private door as a minister; But the Yongyi Bai family is a nobleman, and he enters the private door as a nobleman, for fear that it will attract criticism."
My good senior brother, dear senior brother, you are the only one who knows the little brother!
Bai Dong was so moved, if it weren't for the fact that in front of many people, he really wanted to give Sun Bin a warm hug, Sun Bin's words were simply a charcoal in the snow, making him feel the warmth of spring.
"Mr. Sun, the Yongyi Bai family is also the Bai family, why do you say this?"
Bai Wugeng looked at Sun Bin unhappily, the Yongyi Bai family barely maintained a noble status by relying on Mingzhe to protect himself, although Yingquliang did not completely deprive the Yongyi Bai family of military power, the premise was to be led by Bai Dong, what kind of aristocrat is the Bai family who established a family with military merits now? According to the rules of the ancestors and the etiquette of the Zhou family, if there is a character in the clan who has broken the earth and sealed the marquis, all the veins in the clan can become their retainers and share the glory.
"Hehe, Bai Gong, don't be in a hurry, have you forgotten that the rebellion of the three families of Mengxi and Bai was pacified not long after? Qin Guogang went to the Mengxi Bai family, and now he wants to achieve a Bai family that is even bigger than the original three? I believe that with Bai Gong's cleverness, you can see the pros and cons? ”
Sun Bin smiled and said: "What's more, Bin is not blocking the prince, but this is not the best time for the prince to expand the power of the fief, and the wise man of Bai Gong is also, when he knows the loyalty of his retainers, it is to share the worries of the lord, but not to add trouble to the lord?" ”
"I" Bai Wugeng was speechless for a while, he was different from the Meng family, this time he took advantage of the foundation of Xijun City to become Bai Dong's retainer, it was nothing more than because the Yongyi Bai family was getting worse and worse, and he was anxious to find a backer, when did he really think about Bai Dong?
"Mr. Sun is right, Xijun is newly sealed, after all, the Yongyi Bai family has been noble for generations, and suddenly became a retainer of Xijun, I am afraid that the whole country will talk about it? However, our Meng family is different, the three rebels against the head of the Meng family, the ancestor was deprived early, if there was no Xijun to help, I would have been a ghost under the knife Xijun passed through Xinjiang, and the Meng family has been following from the beginning, and now Xijun has torn the earth and built a city, if the Meng family is not a retainer, I am afraid that it will be accused by the people, Xijun, Baizi! Meng Chenggong led 12,351 people of the He clan, please be a retainer of Xijun! ”
After Meng Chenggong finished speaking, he knelt down at the same time as Meng Pei, quickly rolled up his sleeves, revealing two arms full of black hair, and out of nowhere he found two short swords, he started quickly and ruthlessly, and at the same time cut a blood groove on his arm.
"Patriarch Meng, Pei Gong, what are you doing here?" Bai Dong looked stupid, these two people were more ruthless than Bai Wugeng, and they knelt down and kowtowed without saying anything, and cut their arms as pig legs, doesn't it hurt? Peeked at Sun Bin and found that Senior Brother Sun was looking at him with sympathy, and knew that it would be difficult to get rid of the fate of being eaten by a large family this time.
The reaction of the Meng family was really fast, seeing Meng Chenggong and Meng Pei cut their arms, they immediately bowed down together, someone simply brought a big ding, and the Meng family cut their wrists in turn to drip blood into it. Bai Dong unconsciously shrank his hand, feeling a chill in his arm.
"Lord, from today onwards, you are the master of the Meng family! This is the rule of the ancestors, and please ask the lord to drop blood into the Dading, since then the Meng family will be removed from the Qin State, and I will be Bai Chenggong in the future, and the children of the Meng family will all join the Bai family, the Bai family will be honored, then I will be honored, the Bai family will rebel, I am equivalent to being a thief! ”
Meng Chenggong and Meng Pei took the lead, and thousands of members of the Meng family roared in unison, so shocked that Bai Dong almost jumped off the stage, he had never seen such a brainless person, what method was it bad to use to show loyalty? If you have to say anything about rebellion and rebellion, isn't this a trick for me?
"Once you become a retainer, your life will be tied to the master's family, even if the master's family does a heinous thing, it will follow you to death, so they are not wrong, you just need to drip blood into the ding, and these more than 10,000 people of the Meng family will have no lives from now on, because their lives are given to you" Sun Bin nodded to Bai Dong, signaling him not to hesitate anymore, as a rupture prince, if there are not a few retainers who follow him with all their hearts, it will also be a joke, and it will also be suspected by the monarch
"And me!"
"Teacher, Mu Xijing will also hand over his life to you from now on!"
Nie Zhu and Mu Xijing are two guys who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic, the two jumped next to the big ding, cut their wrists with a sword, and the blood flowed into the ding as if they didn't want money, and the decisive loyalty made people simply unable to refuse.
The veterans of the Bai family who came with Bai Dong did not follow suit, they were already members of the Bai family, just like the clansmen of Baijiazhuang, and Bai Dong was both prosperous and lost. (To be continued......)
