Chapter 46 The head of the family, Ba Qing

"belch."

Meng Tian let out a loud burp and said without thinking, "Of course it's Legalism. Confucianism talks about the etiquette of shit. On the battlefield, if any bastard from the enemy tries to reason with me, I'll chop off his head!"

“Confucian benevolence cannot erase the cruelty of human nature!”

Meng Yi also said: "Confucianism is too rigid, broad-minded and regressive, narrow-minded and disruptive. Nowadays, reforms are used to strengthen the country. Lord Shang's reforms are iron-clad elixirs that bring benefits to the world and eliminate disadvantages. If you want to help the troubled times, you must implement them.

Follow the law and obey the king’s orders!”

The opposition between Legalism and Confucianism is like the political opposition between Lu Buwei and Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng also knew that the two brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi were not drunk, but by saying this, they were not expressing their stance.

He already knows that he will be the final winner in this war without gunpowder.

He held up the bowl solemnly, his narrow eyes filled with determination.

The two brothers Meng Yi and Meng Tian also picked up the bowls at the same time.

Their tough outlines were illuminated by the blazing bonfire. This was their sincere loyalty, even if they were destroyed and their bones were destroyed, "I swear to be loyal to the Lord even if I humble my position!"

The wine is gone and you're enjoying yourself.

The soldiers below lifted up a huge, oily roasted whole lamb and placed it on the iron campfire. While the roasted whole lamb was sizzling, Ying Zheng suddenly asked: "Are you married?"

These words made Meng Tian and Meng Yi, who were all engrossed in waiting for Ying Zheng's question, look at each other and sober up a bit.

"I haven't returned to your Majesty yet." Meng Tian touched the back of his head, his wheat-colored face that had been exposed to the sun was slightly flushed, "But there are several concubines."

Ying Zheng asked his brother again, "Meng Yi?"

Meng Yi's eyes flashed and he said, "I don't have a crush on a shepherdess, but my brother and the elders don't allow it."

Meng Tian finally understood his brother's plan. He blushed and retorted: "I'm just a shepherd girl. You brought her in to be a concubine. You have to be a wife and act like a son and daughter. Are you a real man? I think you are."

Eating too much lard has blinded my heart."

If Junshang hadn't been watching, he would have really wanted to give his brother a good beating.

Meng Yi was more mature than his brother, and said calmly, "Regardless of her background, she is gentle, honest, elegant, and intelligent. She is no better than those girls from aristocratic families who were raised to be pampered, unruly, and delicate."

Speaking of raising a pampered and unruly Didi, Ying Zheng looked down at Bai Tao lying on his lap, lazily waiting to be fed, thinking thoughtfully.

Baitao opened her mouth and couldn't bite the meat, so she grabbed his sleeve.

"Still elegant and smart? A shepherd girl from a poor family who goes into the sheep pen every day, how can you think of such bullshit as being elegant and smart?" Meng Tian got drunk and shouted at the top of his voice, "You are from a dignified Meng family, and you keep saying such nonsense.

See if I can beat you up!"

Meng Yi was still worried about the King of Qin. He chewed the big meat and endured his brother's curses, keeping silent like a saw-mouthed gourd.

Ying Zheng said slowly: "Please ask Shu, please ask Shu. Since you are a beloved lady, it is not a big deal if it is difficult to find her. Meng Yi, if you want to win the beauty back, you should be patient."

Meng Yi had a feeling in his heart that he had met a close friend, "Yes, Your Majesty!"

After saying this, Ying Zheng glanced at the beauty lying on his lap with the end of his eyes.

Baitao caught his gaze and blinked twice, thinking why didn't he feed me? Maybe he wanted to eat alone.

It is better to rely on yourself than to rely on others. Baitao pulled off a chicken leg and took a few bites.

Ying Zheng was so preoccupied that he received no response, and the dark light in his eyes was like dark clouds floating in the sky, a bit resentful.

Baitao: "…………"

She hesitantly handed the chicken drumstick to him: "Do you want to eat it?"

There were still her teeth marks on the chicken legs, and Ying Zheng didn't mind it, so he came over and grabbed it with his mouth.

When Meng Tian saw that the majestic king of Qin actually ate the leftover food from a woman's hand, his resolute face revealed his disbelief.

Meng Yi thought to himself: Why is your Majesty so good at pleasing ladies than me? I'll forget about it and write down this trick first.

Baitao was no longer surprised by Brother Zheng eating her own leftovers. On the contrary, this was one of the good ways to show off by sharing the prey with him.

After he finished eating, Baitao pulled out another chicken leg and said, "Brother Zheng, you are a big man in the Qin Kingdom, you have to eat more."

Ying Zheng was happy that she finally treated him as a man, but sad that it seemed to make no difference whether he was a man or not.

But after all, in front of two subordinates, he took the chicken leg and maintained the majesty of King Qin and said, "I will do it myself."

Baitao didn't have to feed her anymore, so she took out the handkerchief from her clothes and wiped her hands.

Seeing Meng Yi and Meng Tian's bright eyes, she tilted her head and smiled broadly.

This pure smile is as beautiful as a goddess falling from the sky into the mortal world.

Meng Yi and Meng Tian felt their hearts skip a beat, not because of other unnecessary dirty thoughts, but simply because of the beauty's smile.

They didn't dare to look too much, and all lowered their heads to feast on the roasted whole lamb.

After having enough wine and food, Ying Zheng led Baitao's hand down the rugged mountain road. The elk in the rustling dense forest was still whistling "yo yo yo" at the group of them and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Meng Tian said at this time: "Your Majesty, you can tell by looking at the antlers of this deer that it is quite old. It is also a rare white deer. To be so close to Your Majesty is really in line with human nature."

Meng Yi also said: "Deer can bring longevity. This elk can come to our Qin country, which means that the blessings of the Qin country are endless."

"It is indeed a blessing."

Ying Zheng knew that this elk was brought here by Baitao Qianli, so he curled his lips and touched Baitao's head.

Baitao was used to having her head pinched, so she just raised her head and looked at him.

Ying Zheng carried her on the horse first, then got on the horse and pulled the reins. He said to the two brothers behind him: "Didn't Father Zhong put up a notice in Xianyang City, saying that the changes would cost a thousand pieces of gold? If any of you can beat me, go to Xianyang Palace first.

I will reward you with tens of thousands of gold! I will also give you Meng Yi and your shepherdess to be your legitimate wives!"

Meng Yi's eyes were bright and he mounted his horse energetically: "No word worth a thousand gold is worth a thousand gold's promise from you, okay!"

"What a good thing! I'm a coward. If you really dare to marry a shepherdess, believe it or not, I will sever our brotherhood with you."

Seeing that his brother was impatient, Meng Tian gritted his teeth and chased after him with all his strength.

Meng Yi clenched his chin: "If you have the ability, just catch up with me!"

"Brother is like father, let's see if I don't hit you to death with a brick!" Meng Tian's veins popped out.

"Hahaha!"

Ying Zheng held Baitao in his arms and rode away on Juechen, doing whatever he wanted. The two brothers Meng Yi and Meng Tian followed behind. They were on horseback with their skin and flesh on their backs, punched and kicked.

In this way, the four of them chased the stars and the moon and finally arrived at the brightly lit Xianyang City.

*

After all, Ying Zheng was an outstanding equestrian, unmatched by anyone.

Meng Yi, who was following behind, had already been beaten black and blue by his brother.

Although Meng Tian is not much better, he restrains his younger brother's desire to marry the shepherdess. He is cold and open-minded on the surface, but secretly happy on the inside.

He said: "You have lost to your Majesty and you have nothing to say?"

Meng Yi rubbed his face and hissed, "If I lose to you, I will lose to you, but I won't lose to you!"

Meng Tian's sharp brows raised, "If you want to embrace a beauty, you must have strength yourself. This strength is not the strength you can use to talk nonsense."

In short, win his dream.

Meng Tian showed his big white teeth.

Meng Yi opened his mouth to refute.

Ying Zheng came over and patted Meng Yi on the shoulder, "Meng Yi, you are a man. Regardless of your own preferences, you must have the responsibilities and responsibilities that a man should have towards your family and General Meng. You defeated your brother with your strength. You

My sweetheart needs to rely on strength to obtain the approval of the Meng clan."

The Meng family is a family that has been rooted in the Qin Kingdom for generations, and the lintel cannot be climbed just by the love between children.

Meng Yi asked, "Does your Majesty also need the approval of the Ying clan to marry your sweetheart?"

Baitao leaned in Ying Zheng's arms, wondering what kind of woman Zheng brother would marry and how he would treat his future wife.

Ying Zheng circled her waist and got closer to him. He turned the horse around with the reins and said calmly: "No need. I have Ying's strength, so why do I need other people's approval."

Meng Tian: "."

Meng Yi: "."

Meng Guo mouthed to his younger brother, "Did you hear that, Mr. Ying?"

Meng Yi's green face couldn't hold back, and he pinched the horse's belly and threw him behind him.

Meng Tian covered his stomach with one hand, holding the rope and laughing from behind, "Hahahahahaha!"

After laughing, he turned his wrist a few times, turned his head, and followed the leader Junshang as he walked down the official road.

Xianyang at night is like a city that never sleeps.

The wide rammed earth avenue, luxurious and elegant facades, sparkling carriages and horses, and wind lanterns are all hung on the crenellations of the city wall, like entrenched long fire dragons.

Ying Zheng seldom left the palace, but he still marveled at being surrounded by the beauty and prosperity while holding the white peach in his arms.
