Four hundred and twentieth chapters departed (1)
Back in Xianyang, the Qin court was busy managing the old land of the six Shandong countries. Meng Tian, who had just been granted a marquis, stayed in the Marquis' Mansion of Wuwei and stole half a day of leisure.
When I was fine, I studied the maps of the northern counties and planned the war to attack the Huns.
Just after mid-July, the heat in Xianyang became more and more unbearable. Ying Zheng led the important officials to Ganquan Palace to escape the summer heat. The huge Xianyang Palace became a accompanying palace for a while.
"General, the Guowei Mansion sent someone to invite the general to the Guowei Mansion to attend the banquet."
Unfolding the invitations sent by Meng Tian, the familiar handwriting came into Meng Tian's eyes, which was Wei Liao's handwritten letter.
"What's the reason for inviting me to the banquet at this time?"
Meng Tian was unsure of it, so he hurriedly ordered people to prepare a car and rushed to the Guowei Mansion.
The Guowei Mansion is located in the east of Xianyang City, not far from Xianyang Palace, so as to see the palace at any time.
Wei Liao served as the Qin State's National Force for many years and served as Ying Zheng's chief military adviser. The Qin State's military strategy for conquering the six Shandong countries was mostly from Wei Liao.
After Shang Yang's reform in Qin State, the national strength was strengthened, the soldiers dared to fight, and generals who were good at fighting emerged one after another. The Qin army attacked the east and encountered a god of war like Bai Qi, but still failed to defeat one of the six major warring countries in Shandong. It is impossible to say that the Qin State's military strategy made major mistakes.
After Fan Ju entered Qin, he proposed a strategy of fighting with far and near. Qin no longer planned to attack Qi, but focused on attacking the Three Jin and Chu countries bordering Qin.
Such a strategy is not a problem in general. However, in practice, not every inch of land close to Qin needs to be attacked.
Where to hit and the order of hitting needs to be carefully designed.
King Zhaoxiang of Qin and Fan Ju do not have such strategic design capabilities.
Wei Liao's vision was wider, and Meng Tian had a big map of the world in his heart, helping Wei Liao improve his strategy of conquering the six kingdoms.
Qin's annexation of the world, Wei Liao never led troops, went to the battlefield, and left no reputation. But Meng Tian knew very well that Wei Liao made great contributions to the unification of the six kingdoms of Qin.
"General Meng, the master of the family said that after receiving the letter, you will come over immediately and let the students welcome the general here."
At the gate of the Guowei Mansion, Wang Rong, a student of Wei Liao, immediately came forward when he saw Meng Tian's car.
"Do you know what happened to the National Guard holding a banquet today?"
Meng Tian got off the carriage and helped Wang Rong up.
Wang Rong is nearly forty years old, older than Meng Tian, and is the only disciple under Wei Liao. I think Wang Rong's ability is not bad.
"General Meng will know when he goes in."
Wang Rong smiled and did not answer Meng Tian’s question positively.
The Guowei Mansion is not big, and it is clean and tidy. After crossing a stone bridge, I entered the main hall of the Guowei Mansion. On both sides of the main hall, there were four desk tables, and the tables were already equipped with banquet utensils.
This is a small party.
After a series of guests invited by Wei Liao came one after another, all of them were court ministers who stayed in Xianyang.
Wang Wan, the Marquis of Dingyang who was about to leave Xianyang, was the Emperor Zheng, the Minister of Li Jin, the Inner Shin-Shi, the Prince of Fengchang, the Celestial Guest Yao Jia, the Passerman was weak, and the Wei Wei was Lu Hui.
Among these people, except for Lu Hui, who is a little younger, the others can be regarded as old people who know their destiny.
"The sun is scorching and the heat is heavy. My colleagues are here to appreciate the light and are very honored."
Nearly noon, the concubines of the National Wei Mansion brought ice cubes and placed them in the hall. Then, Wei Liao walked out of the backyard wearing a blue-black regular suit.
At this time, Wei Liao's hair was completely white, his body was a little hunched, his face was loose, and he only had a pair of small eyes, which exuded an inexplicable brilliance.
"You are welcome."
After everyone sat down, they all bowed back to Wei Liao.
In his early years, Wei Liao guarded the city gates in Wei, went to Qin State to become a state lieutenant, and fulfilled his lifelong ambitions and gained the trust of Ying Zheng. He had been dealing with generals in the army and Ying Zheng for many years, and there were not many serious conflicts with the ministers in Xianyang, and everyone had a good relationship.
"The National Guard invites me to come today. I wonder what is the big deal?"
Lu Hui asked after drinking a glass of wine.
The emperor was not in Xianyang, and Lu Hui led the troops and guarded Xianyang. He was uneasy when he attended such a banquet.
"Yes, what's the important thing about the National Guard?" everyone asked.
In my impression, Wei Liao was not someone who could host a banquet.
Meng Tian raised his head and stared at Wei Liao in the main seat, wanting to hear what Wei Liao said.
"I am already sixty-five years old this year. After sitting for a long time, my legs hurt and my waist hurt. My eyes, reading books, and then I closed my eyes. The National Wei Mansion has a lot of affairs, but I am not energetic and have already resigned to the emperor. Today is a banquet, I would like to say goodbye to you."
After saying that, Wei Liao raised the wine glass in his hand and toasted again.
"Resign?"
Lu Hui felt relieved. Since Wei Liao resigned, he could eat this meal casually.
"Thinking of the time when Lu Gongwang came out of the mountain at the age of eighty, assisting King Wen and King Wu, and conquering the Shang Dynasty. The National Guard is only 65 years old this year, and it is still early to go to the age when Lu Gongwang made great achievements!"
Yao Jia, who was also a native of Wei, immediately spoke out to keep him.
After Wei Liao resigned from office, only Yao Jia was left in the court. Director Yao Jia had no strong relationship with Wei Liao's National Wei Mansion, because they were both Wei people, and their relationship was very good.
Yao Jia really doesn't want Wei Liao to resign so early, and he is still planning to show his strength in Xianyang.
"Legendary: Lu Gongwang has the help of God, and his qi and blood are strong, and he is healthy and long-lasting. My body is not as good as Lu Gongwang, and I am afraid that it will be far away from seeing ghosts and gods."
Wei Liao shook his head, his tone was very firm.
Seeing Wei Liao say this, it is hard for everyone to persuade him.
The meal at Guowei Mansion was more in form than in essence, and everyone comforted him and left quickly.
Meng Tian took advantage of the opportunity to change clothes and deliberately delayed the time. When he returned to the hall, the guests had long disappeared.
"General Meng, why is it so late?"
At this time, Wang Rong came out from somewhere: "The master is waiting for you."
At the table, Wei Liao saw Meng Tian go to change clothes, and immediately realized that Meng Tian wanted to meet him alone, so he ordered Wang Rong to come and greet him.
Follow Wang Rong, I walked through three paths, walked through a regular corridor, and arrived at Wei Liao's study.
"The old man really enjoys it."
When he entered the study, he saw Wei Liao lying beside the window, basking in the sun comfortably. Two young female slaves, one on the left and the other on the right, gently beat him his legs.
"I don't enjoy it now. When I see ghosts and gods, I will never enjoy it again."
Wei Liao waved his hand and asked the servant to retreat, sighing regretfully: "When my old wife was still there, she had the heart but no courage. Now my old wife is gone, she has the heart but no strength."
"Haha, who is the Qin State's National Force, is so afraid of the inner world. If it spreads, it will really become a good story."
Meng Tian sat down and quipped.
Before Wei Liao became famous, his wife often criticized him for being unpromising. After arriving in Qin, she was valued by Ying Zheng, but Wei Liao was afraid that his wife would get used to it, so she still couldn't get hard.
