The 257th chapter guest of the beam (2)

When Meng Tian arrived at the front camp, the rain had just stopped and there was a fresh smell in the air.

"General, look, someone has fallen from the Daliang city wall."

He was the personal soldier who watched Japan and could see clearly, pointing at the head of Daliang City, guiding Meng Tian's gaze.

Meng Tian looked closely and saw a few ropes shaking on the head of Daliang City with a slight water vapor. Above the rope, there were a few figures, carefully falling to the ground.

The Qin army was on guard and the soldiers who were preparing to go out to build the canals held the iron shovel in their hands, staring at the Daliang City Gate without blinking.

A quarter of an hour later, the Daliang city gate was still closed with no movement.

Several figures who left the city, holding white flags in their hands, stumbled, stepped across the muddy road, and slowly walked towards the Qin army camp.

Judging from this attitude, these people should be the messengers coming to the peace talks.

Meng Tian felt a little strange. Did the white flag start to be fired more than two thousand years ago?

"Don't shoot arrows. We will come to discuss the evacuation of the head of Guizhou with the chief general of the Qin army."

The leader Duan Min raised his eyes and saw the cold light of the crossbow arrow. He was so scared that he quickly shook the white flag in his hand and shouted with all his strength.

"Don't shoot arrows!"

······

It was related to his wealth and life. The four ministers who followed Duan Min raised their hands and shouted in unison.

"You have been following the orders of the King of Wei, but is there any decree from the King of Wei?"

With Meng Tian’s approval, Meng Bao walked forward, leaned out, and ordered Duan Min to stop.

When the two armies are negotiating, it is not uncommon to cool down the other side's envoys.

"Some, some..." Duan Min hurriedly took out a scroll from his big sleeve, "The King of Wei's decree is in my hands, and I hope the general will pass it."

"Let them in."

Meng Tian was a little confused. The Wei people should know that the chief general of the Qin army in Wei was Wang Ben, so why the envoy came straight to the Qin camp in the northern city.

"Immediately send someone to inform the young master, and I will escort the envoys of Wei to the Central Army camp."

Meng Tian and Wang Ben have not had that good relationship, but Wang Ben is now Meng Tian’s superior. In any case, Meng Tian has no power to go beyond Wang Ben and directly negotiate with the Wei people.

Meng Bao led a few personal soldiers out of the camp, took the order from Duan Min, and flipped it out inside and out.

Jing Ke assassinated the King of Qin, and the dagger appeared. Such a thing happened, and the Qin people checked the scroll very carefully.

There was no problem with the imperial edict. Meng Bao's eyes turned to Duan Min and his group, and Duan Min's chrysanthemums suddenly tightened.

Fortunately, the Qin people did not have the interest in exploring the Wei people's Houtinghua. They just fumbled up and down, but did not find anything suspicious, so they completely felt relieved.

People from the six kingdoms in Shandong could not defeat the Qin people on the battlefield, and assassins were rampant in private, and the Qin people hated it deeply.

Stepping into the Qin army camp and witnessing the bright long halberd, Duan Min's back was sweating profusely.

Before leaving, the King of Wei specially gave him four inconspicuous followers to pretend to be subordinates of the Duan Mansion, so he should not do any stupid things.

"If you go on a mission, you will be enough. The remaining four will stay in this camp. There is no order and no permission to go out."

Meng Hu came to greet the envoys of Wei State under Meng Tian's order.

Meng Bao was responsible for scaring Duan Min, and Meng Hu's face was much more harmonious. The words he said did not make Duan Min feel as if he was soaked in spring breeze.

"It's so good!" Duan Min was happy and answered hurriedly.

He was about to get rid of these people behind him, but he didn't expect that someone would give him a pillow when he was sleepy.

The four spies assigned by Wei Zeng stared at the back of Duan Min's head with fierce eyes. If his eyes could kill people, Duan Min would only be afraid of death several times.

"Mengbao, I will accompany the general to the Central Army camp now. You must keep an eye on these four Wei people."

Meng Hu always felt something was wrong with Duan Min's entourage, but they didn't have anything suspicious about them and couldn't detect anything.

"Hmph, if they dare to act rashly, the knife in my hand is not a vegetarian."

Meng Bao touched the knife around her waist and quickly patted her chest to ensure that.

In the past, when Meng Tian went out, he always brought Meng Bao by his side, allowing Meng Hu and Jing Su to stay.

Meng Bao now feels that Meng Tian has begun to train him to manage the camp, so he is naturally full of confidence and wants to perform well.

······

Duan Min sat on the carriage, and Meng Tian rode a horse with him. The Qin army camps that besieged the city had newly built a wide avenue between each other and walked on it, but there was no feeling of mud.

"The general's ancestors come from Qidi?"

Duan Min felt that being silent like this was not a solution, and he was close to Meng Tian when he spoke.

"Yes, my eldest father was originally from Qi."

Meng Tian nodded, without any taboo on Meng Ao's original nationality.

During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, talent flowed frequently. Talented scholars, like managers who were looking for jobs in later generations, had nothing to do with them.

"It's so convenient. My ancestors were also from Qi."

"Oh, there's that?"

Meng Tian turned his head and looked at Duan Min, who was a big young man. This man was ordered to go to Qinying, but his eloquence was so clumsy and he was too deliberate.

The Meng family of Qin State came from Qi, and it was no longer a secret that Meng Ao served as the general of Qin State.

"When Wei Wenhou was reigned, he was eager to seek talent and treated scholars with courtesy. It was at that time that my ancestor Duan Ganmu moved from Qi to Wei."

Duan Min stood upright, stroked his gray beard, smiling, and was very fascinated.

In the early years of the Warring States Period, when Wei Wenhou was in charge of the Wei Kingdom, it was an era that was desirable for Confucian scholars in the world.

Every time Wei Wenhou passed by Duan Ganmu's residence, he would drive slowly and bow to him. Every time Duan Min recalled, he felt happy.

"Who is Duan Ganmu?" Meng Tian did not feel Duan Min's enjoyment mood, and a sentence almost made Duan Min roll off the car.

Who is Duan Ganmu?

Wen Hou received his son Xia Jingyi and was known as Duan Ganmu. He was known as the princes and was known as the benevolent in the world. The descendants of the Meng family did not even know this. Qin, a tiger and wolf, was really uneducated.

Duan Min suddenly paused his right hand that was stroking his beard, and his face was quite embarrassed. He did not expect that Duan Ganmu, who had been treated as a courtesy of Wei Wenhou, would not know at all.

"Duan Zhengzhi, I have no other meaning. Perhaps your ancestor was famous for a while, but if he failed to make contributions, make words, and establish virtue, how could later people know his reputation?"

Meng Tian’s next sentence further hit Duan Min’s sense of superiority in life.

Duan Min, who was a little depressed, did not even notice Meng Tian's words, changed the order in which Confucian scholars established morality, words, and meritorious deeds, but first mentioned meritorious deeds.

Wei Wenhou did treat Duan Ganmu with courtesy, but Duan Ganmu did not make any political achievements in the Wei State, but only left a name in the history books.

Duan Min, who was still trying to make some friendship with Meng Tian, ​​felt depressed.

It seems that in front of the Qin people, it is not so easy to carry out the ancestor Duan Ganmu...
