In the hearts of those who have a heart, whether they know the truth or those who rely on their own guesses, their thoughts are very similar.
Perhaps, many of these people's thoughts are different. But there is one thing that a lot of people agree on quite amazingly. That is, Zhang Jiashi will marry the two princesses next month, and Mengwu and Mengfu will become a very important role.
......
In Zhao Gao's mansion, Zhao Gao looked at Zhao Cheng and shook his head angrily: "In the next few days, you'd better make less trouble for me, if you provoke Your Majesty's anger, our Zhao family will have to be unlucky with you." ā
As a close confidant of Ying Zheng, it is impossible for him to stand in the position of the commander of the CRRC government without his own ability.
What he said to Zhao Cheng was that not long ago, Fan Chong was found out to be the reason for reselling grain.
Zhao Cheng was the most important cause of Fan Chong's case, because Zhao Cheng took advantage of Fan Chong's gambling defects to set a trap, so that Fan Chong owed Zhao Cheng a lot of money.
Zhao Gao knew very well that if Zhao Cheng hadn't known about using other people as a cover this time, he believed that the conversation between him and Zhao Cheng would not be in this place, but in Tingwei Prison.
"Brother, are we just looking at that person standing so close to the Meng family?" Zhao Cheng knew very well that Zhao Gao hated the Meng family to the core. The main reason for this incident is that Zhao Gao was almost not killed by Meng Yi, so Meng Wu did not invite Zhao Gao this time.
The Meng and Zhao families are already on the same page.
Zhao Gao looked at Zhao Cheng with a look of hatred for iron and steel, and said slowly: "Your Majesty also doesn't want to see this matter. ā
"Then why would Your Majesty?" Zhao Cheng didn't understand why Zhao Gao would say such a thing.
"Your Majesty hopes that Zhang Jiashi can take advantage of the Meng family's momentum and go one step further. Of course, His Majesty's arrangement is also a clever move. ā
Zhao Gao said leisurely: "Zhang Jiashi is from a reckless background, even if His Majesty has blue eyes for him, and his saint is like a scorching sun, but this cannot make Zhang Jiashi's identity match the two princesses." Although Great Qin does not restrict the marriage between the rich and the poor, His Majesty is still a face-saving person. If you marry the two princesses to people from reckless backgrounds, how can you stop the mouths of the world?"
"Is this Your Majesty's wonderful move?" Zhao Cheng seemed to suddenly realize.
"And that's not all. Zhao Gao glanced at his younger brother and said slowly: "This time, before Your Majesty promised to marry the two princesses to Zhang Jiashi, let Meng Wu accept each other as a righteous son, so naturally there is still a plan. That is, with the help of the Meng family, the wedding between Zhang Jiashi and the two princesses will not make His Majesty feel ashamed. ā
At this time, Zhao Cheng knew that Meng Wu accepted Zhang Jiashi as his righteous son, and there were so many doors.
"In short, if you dare to mess around this time, I will cut off your head first. After Zhao Gao threw down this cold sentence, he turned around and left the front room through the side door.
Zhao Cheng looked at Zhao Gao's background unwillingly, shook his head and sighed.
......
In Zhang Jiashi's barracks, Han Xin and others gathered to eat.
And this time, there were no new officers such as Zhao Miao, it was completely a gathering of Zhang Jiashi's descendants.
Ruan Weng Shao touched his hair and looked at Chen Ping puzzled: "Mr. Chen, why does Lord Duwei want to recognize Master Meng as his father-in-law and not tell us? ā
Chen Ping showed a hint of a smile: "Lord Ruan two or five hundred, my lord, he didn't tell us, maybe there are many reasons." Adults have their own difficulties. But this time, it's not what adults want to do. It was hinted at by His Majesty. ā
"Your Majesty's hint?" Li Cang glanced at the dishes that were secretly sandwiched by others next to him, and then looked like a nobody, he didn't understand why Chen Ping would say that.
"Yes. Although Lord Mengwu has faded out of military politics, he still has considerable influence on His Majesty and Great Qin. If His Majesty hadn't discussed it with Lord Mengwu, I'm afraid it would have been very likely that the Lord would have hit the nail and returned. ā
Chen Ping said this, then took a sip of broth and continued: "If there is a better choice, Your Majesty will not let your lord worship Lord Mengwu as his father-in-law. ā
When Han Xin heard this, a word flashed in his mind, and he asked Chen Ping uncertainly: "Mr. Chen, is the better choice you said...... The Wang family?"
Chen Ping nodded: "That's right, it's General Wang Qian's Wang family." Although the Wang family is in Daqin, the history of the family as a generation of soldiers is much more distant than that of the Meng family. However, since the death of General Wang Jian and General Wang Ben, the influence of the Wang family has not been as good as before, and Wang Li, the eldest son of General Wang Ben, is now just a deputy general under General Meng, which can be seen. ā
Su Teng remembered something at this time, and looked at Chen Ping suspiciously: "According to Teng's friends in the Weiwei Army, His Majesty intends to send General Wang Li to replace General Ren Huan, who is said to be seriously ill, and take over as the chief general of the Southern Army. This one...... Mr. Chen Ping, do you think it is credible?"
Chen Ping glanced at Su Teng deeply and said, "Do you think that Wang Li's prestige can take over another strong army of our Great Qin?"
As a result, the crowd fell silent.
Because as Chen Ping said, although he is the same age as Meng Tian, whether it is qualifications, prestige and ability, the gap between Wang Li and Meng Tian is not ordinarily large.
However, Chen Ping suddenly thought of something, he looked at Huan Su and asked: "Lord Huan two or five hundred, I don't know if the Wang family has a woman to be married who is the same age as the two princesses?"
Huan Su didn't know why Chen Ping had this problem, but he still thought about it carefully.
And Han Xin and other smarter people all thought of why Chen Ping asked like this.
Because Zhang Jiashi, as an upstart in the army of Great Qin, His Majesty will inevitably choose another way to appease the Wang family after letting Zhang Jiashi recognize Meng Wu as his father-in-law in order to weigh it.
Marriage is a good way to do it.
As for how to marry?
It's very simple, just let the Wang family send a concubine to be a dowry.
People who think of this ring are not envious of Zhang Jiashi's "Yanfu", in fact, they all know very well that such a thing, whether it is for Zhang Jiashi or the concubine who marryed, is a kind of sadness. A sad existence as a result of the exchange of interests.
If Zhang Jiashi doesn't like that Wang family girl, then ...... What awaits this Wang family woman is nothing more than a bleak rest of her life.
At this time, Huan Su thought of the relevant suitable person. He said slowly: "General Wang Ben, the last head of the Wang family, and there is also a young queen Yan who is about 16 years old. Huh, could it be?"
Huan Su also thought of something, and he looked at Chen Ping in surprise: "Mr. Chen, what you said, does it mean that His Majesty will arrange for Wang Yan to be a concubine?"
Chen Ping fell into thinking again at this time. Because he can't be sure, a concubine, especially as Fusu's wife and sister, is unlikely to be a concubine with such an identity.
However, Chen Ping knew one thing very clearly, that is, it was impossible for Zhang Jiashi to be arranged as a side woman of the Wang family as a concubine. Your Majesty should know that such an arrangement is useless at all.
I don't know how long it has been, Chen Ping shook his head: "If it is the concubine of the Wang family, such a thing has become difficult to guess." Even if His Majesty is willing to do this, I am afraid that the opposition of the Wang clan will not be small. ā
"Isn't it okay to arrange a woman on the side?" Xia Houying couldn't figure out the key between the two, he only knew that such a thing should be a good thing. Otherwise, Chen Ping would not be here to discuss.
Chen Ping shook his head: "If it is a woman on the side, then the effect of His Majesty's desire to marry the adult and the Wang family can basically be said to be directly gone." Moreover, who can stop what His Majesty really wants to do?"
Chen Ping's words made the people in the tent nod their heads in agreement.
......
That night, after Ying Zheng watched the news that Zhang Jiashi was drunk and had to stay in Mengfu, he shook his head speechlessly: "This bastard, don't drink so much if you can't drink it." It's not your first time, is it? ā
He then threw the cloth into the bronze lamp.
Looking at the flickering firelight, Ying Zheng pondered: "The Wang family is still as I expected, and does not want Wang Yan to be a concubine as a dowry. But I don't want to do anything like that. If it weren't for the sake of a balance, how could I have made such a decision? The Wang family, after the death of General Wang and Wang Ben, has already sent too many people to the Meng family. But there is still some influence in the military. It's just that, what can we do?"
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng stood up and walked to a hung map in the hall.
Ying Zheng, who was looking at the map, gently tapped his finger on the map on the map in the hometown of Yan in the northeast of Great Qin, as well as the newly opened three southern counties: "If Wang Li and the other younger generations can really be of great use, then how can this position make me so distressed? That bastard is too young." As a general, stationing in the hometown of Yan is already the limit. Right now...... It's not time yet. ā
"Ren Huan is not in good health, during the southern expedition, he was injured by the natives, although he was able to get treatment and did not die like Tu Sui, but he was on the table a year ago, hoping to go home to recuperate. Alas, it's hard for me. ā
Ying Zheng thought of this, he didn't know what he should do. However, after the Great Qin unified the Six Kingdoms, the military talents withered more and more after Wang Qian, Wang Ben, and Wei Yi, the national captain, and others either died or retired.
Originally, the best candidate to replace Tu Sui was not Ren Huan, nor Meng Tian, but Li Xin. But before he could order the reuse of Li Xin, he received the news that the other party had died of illness in his hometown in Longxi.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng shook his head silently: "Daqin, is there going to be a crisis?"
According to Ying Zheng's idea, Zhang Jiashi stayed in Xianyang for another two years, and he would be appointed by him as the right general who had been vacant for an unknown number of years, and take over the defense of Donghu.
Because although Zhang Jiashi is favored by him, he is still too young, and besides, a battle of Yongdu cannot allow him to establish enough prestige.
Therefore, he will pave the way for Zhang Jiashi through this series of arrangements.
It is urgent to cultivate military talents for the younger generation of Daqin. If Meng Tian and the others pass away and don't prepare now, it is very likely that Daqin will have a period of military talent in short supply.
If Meng Wu is willing to make a comeback, then he can rest assured. But he couldn't help but think of the conversation between Meng Wu and him before he left the Meng Mansion.
......
Time returned to this morning, when Ying Zheng was about to leave, Meng Wu, who was accompanying him behind him, said slowly: "Old friend, your arrangement is not so simple. ā
"You can see it. ā
"Nonsense, how many years have I known you? If I can't see this, I may have died a long time ago in the chaos of the palace. Meng Wu couldn't deny a smile: "I didn't expect that it would be decades so soon, and we are all old." ā
"I don't recognize old age. Ying Zheng strongly refuted Meng Wu's words.
Meng Wu glanced at Yingzheng who was holding on angrily, he suddenly remembered something, frowned and whispered, "Do you plan to arrange that little slippery head in the south or north?"
"The hometown of the Yan Kingdom. Ying Zheng knew what Meng Wu meant, and he didn't hide his plans.
Meng Wu heard a few words from Yan Dai's hometown, and after being stunned for a while, he showed a narrow smile: "You want to play with fire." ā
"Maybe, but I may not see what happened at that time. Ying Zheng smiled self-deprecatingly.
"I'm about the same. After all, the injury was still too serious for me. Meng Wu said something that made Ying Zheng quite bitter.
In the palace rebellion initiated by the Marquis of Changxin back then, if it weren't for his carelessness, Meng Wu would not have been seriously injured in order to save him.
"Do you want to accompany me down there?" Ying Zheng said as he walked out of the gate of the Mongolian Mansion.
Of course, Meng Wu knew what Ying Zheng was talking about. That is, Yingzheng hopes that Meng Wu will accompany the burial of Lishan.
Accompanying burial and burial are two different things, and accompanying burial is the construction of a mausoleum around the emperor's mausoleum. It's like Wei Qing who was buried in Maoling in later generations, Huo Quai.
Meng Wu shook his head and said, "Just let me go, I don't want to be bullied by you in other worlds." ā
After Ying Zheng heard this, he showed a hint of a smile.
Because this is Meng Wu, whom he has known for many years, he ...... Except for his younger brother Cheng Jiao, the most trusted person.
......
After reminiscing, Ying Zheng silently returned to his position, he picked up the brush and wrote something on a blank silk book.
After a while, Ying Zheng put down the brush, and Ying Zheng took out the imperial seal in the box and pressed it directly on the silk book. He then shouted to the attendants who were waiting outside the temple: "Come!"
"What does Your Majesty command?" said a middle-aged chamberlain who walked in and knelt on the ground.
"Sent to Wang's house overnight. Ying Zheng pointed to the silk book he had rolled.
"Whoa!"
Looking at the background of the waiter leaving backwards, Yingzheng's eyes revealed a glimmer of light:
"No one can stop me from making a decision. ā
...................................................... Dividing Line................................................
In the next few days, Zhang Jiashi was helped by Meng Wu and others to do a lot of things.
Of course, these things have something to do with his marriage.
In ancient times, weddings were mainly in five ways: Nacai, asking for names, Najib, Nazheng, and asking for dates. In fact, Zhang Jiashi is going to marry two princesses this time, and Yingzheng has already saved him the last step.
Because the wedding date was announced by Yingzheng himself. So please period or something can be omitted.
However, although it is a marriage gift, other steps cannot be reduced.
Meng Wu and Meng Tian brothers, for Zhang Jiashi, the half of the "Meng family", have been very busy these days.
It's just that Zhang Jiashi is also worried about one thing. That's where you asked him to find the wild goose now?
With his own personal guards, Zhang Jiashi ran to the edge of Weishui when he was free these days to see if any geese could be shot down by him.
However, at the end of March, when the geese have returned to the farther north, Zhang Jiashi is often busy all day, looking at the eagles flying by in the sky from time to time, and muttering: "Why do you want geese for Mao?"
"Don't you know that Honghu itself is a symbol of love and loyalty?" Bai Qi was angry and vomited at Zhang Jiashi.
Of course, Zhang Jiashi would not have thought that Hongyan passed on the book, and at this time, it should be said that Honghu passed on the book, in fact, it was used as a dowry, expressing the hope that he could be happy with the woman.
At this time, books do not refer to books or bamboo slips, but to the meaning they want to express.
When Zhang Jiashi heard this, he looked up at the sky again helplessly.
As a result, a flock of crows flew by......
Zhang Jiashi: "......"
......
Zhang Jiashi, who has been busy making trouble with the wild geese in the past few days, returns empty-handed every time, and Meng Wu is also helpless about this matter, because this time is also not a good time to catch the wild geese.
But Meng Wu didn't let Zhang Jiashi take a few white geese and lambs to make up the numbers, because he knew very well that if Zhang Jiashi dared to do this, his old friend would inevitably be furious......
Well, as for what he will do, he doesn't know.
However, the heavens did not seem to want Zhang Jiashi to be troubled by Yingzheng, and when Zhang Jiashi was about to run to the edge of Weishui again to try his luck in Shuangyi's mansion, Zhang Jiashi saw a middle-aged hunter with a long wooden bow on his back, carrying four large geese and two small geese on the street.
Zhang Jiashi, who saw this scene: "This thing is too weird." ā
Zhang Jiashi didn't understand why it was two big geese and two small geese, but knowing what Meng Wu said to him, he knew that the other party would not deceive him on this matter, so seeing the four struggling geese on the shoulders of this middle-aged hunter, Zhang Jiashi hesitated for a while, but still got down the red cloud, walked over and said to the middle-aged hunter:
"This uncle, how do you sell this?"
......
Zhang Jiashi, who solved the problem, didn't know that in a valley in Taihang Mountain, a middle-aged man with a bronze sword on his back looked at his daughter, but his heart was very empty.
"Daddy. Don't you really know where your daughter's Honghu is going?" a woman in a strong suit looked at her father suspiciously.
The middle-aged man shook his head very calmly: "How do I know." Daughter, didn't you keep the cage closed......"
The middle-aged man didn't say any more, because he saw a golden metal bird flying into the windowsill and smiled......
...
