Three hundred and ninetieth chapters [West King]
"The western frontier is weak and cold, and there is a hero who supports someone. Duke Mu of the country is called the king. The Chinese domineering is prosperous and declining. Alas, what can I do? In this life, there is a phoenix coming to the tune of the phoenix. The Bai family Yingzi and Hui and the country are the first to destroy the Mo Chief, and then the name of the literary master, the military and the magical mechanism, and the world hears the sounds."
The books of the Zhou royal family must be Bai Dong's admirers. The flowers that polished by the Emperor's book were simply to praise Bai Dong to the sky. The old Qin ministers were stunned when they heard this. Although the Zhou royal family was weak, they were still the common ruler of the world. That was not a praising person. Not to mention the nobles and officials in the vassal states, this book of Emperor Wei Ying would be so happy that Wei Ying would be crazy.
"Baby, have you seen it? This is your father. Our Lao Qin is wrong. He is a great hero in the world! Even the King of Zhou has to write a special book to praise him. My father is so amazing. Are you very happy?"
Ying Shu returned to visit her relatives this time. As the wife of Qi, she was not convenient to directly participate in Bai Dong's seal script, but she could hide behind the stage and point at Bai Dong to speak to the baby. When she recalled her experience with Bai Dong and Emperor Hu Tian in the carriage, (No - I saw that the boy walked up to the stage with a serious face, and was kindly held by his brother Ying Quliang to accept the congratulations of the ministers, Ying Shu felt indescribable pride in her heart. Her mood at this moment was like bitter wine and fleas, and she felt a sense of satisfaction of being noble and noble.
As soon as the Emperor's Book was released, even if Bai Dong's ceremony of enthroning the marquis was entered, the old ministers of the three dynasties, such as Gan Long, Zhang Feng, and Jung Geng, even put down their bodies and patted their thighs and cheered! The ministers were even more crazy, and the sound of the color almost shook the blue sky through the sky. King Ping has been moving east for two hundred years. It turned out that our old Qin had a domestic marquis that even the Emperor of Zhou had to recognize. Even the old powerful country like Wei Qichu could not do this! This should be celebrated by the whole country!
Bai Dong, a "Guannei Marquis" who was promoted by the Zhou royal family, could not escape no matter what. Ying Quliang had thought about it and found that it was inappropriate. After thinking about it, he realized that it was inappropriate. Since the Qin State implemented the 20th grade title, no one could have been named Chehou. Such a high title is almost side by side with the king. Bai Dong was too young after all, and it was not a good thing to praise and kill. The word "Praise and kill" also comes from Bai Zi's new words. The more Ying Quliang thought about it, the more he felt that it was profound in wisdom, and the military family used it, and the Jun family also used it. If it was used on the enemy, it would be truly a killing without blood.
Bai Dong was awarded the title of Guannei Marquis. His fief was much larger than that of ordinary Guannei Marquis, so he was directly granted to the Western Regions. The tribesmen of Baijiazhuang finally understood what it means to rise in water. Bai Yue directly granted the title of Mrs. Yongdu. Although Cao'er was not married, he still enjoyed the rights of a high-ranking lady. Later, he entered the Liyang Palace and went to his backyard to chat with Bu Rongyi every day. He was promoted to the title again. He was promoted from Mrs. Pinyang to "Xin~Mrs. Xinjiang". The title was a bit strange, but everyone knew that Pinyang was just a county, but Xinjiang in the Western Region was a very large area. A woman was granted this title. That was also a precedent for Lao Qin.
It was true that one person had achieved enlightenment and the chickens and dogs ascended to heaven. This time, Bai Dong was named a marquis. There were no less than fifty tribes in Baijiazhuang who had obtained the title of fourth-class or above. Bai Longye is almost 60 years old this year, and he actually got an official doctor. Although he was a false title, the old man still couldn't like it, and his mouth never closed.
As soon as the ceremony ended, Bu Rongyi invited bitter wine and fleas. It is estimated that the three sisters were going to celebrate in Liyang Palace. Once the woman's house became crazy, Ying Quliang had to retreat. Tonight's Liyang Palace was a lively one. Bai Dong was not ready to join in the fun. After returning to Baijiazhuang to drink Fenghou wine, he left the table and returned to his own yard. Someone had been waiting here for a long time.
"You are Meng Fang, right? The message from the warehouse came. The Western Region grapes brought this time were very good, and I also left the excellent wool. What happened to that guy Silde recently? And my senior brother is in good health. After all, he is from the Chinese. He suddenly arrived in the Western Regions. I am really afraid that he will not get used to it."
The Meng family operated well in the Western Regions. With Bai Dong’s request, Ying Quliang’s envy, Meng Chenggong and some people who were willing to return to the Qin Dynasty have been pardoned and returned to the Qin State. These old men of the Meng family lamented that the world was impermanent and the terrifying politics were terrified, and they were determined to guard the ancestral temple and become an ordinary civilian from now on.
However, the young people of the Meng family were unwilling to accept the title. Some of them joined the army and wanted to use Wei Yang's new law to get a title; some of them looked at Bai Dong and followed Bai Zi to have meat to eat. Many people simply stayed in the Western Regions, thinking that this was the place where Bai Dong was careful to manage, and there would be a lot of opportunities in the future. Some of the Meng family members who had originally returned to Qin actually went to the Western Regions again. They had been used to drinking milk tea, eating raisins, and seeing too many big eyes. They would be very uncomfortable when they suddenly returned to Lao Qin. They felt that even the sky was much darker, far less clear than the sky on the Western Regions prairie.
Meng Fang and his son are the kind-hearted people who seize opportunities. They are staunch supporters of Bai Dong and Silde. Soon after he arrived at Lao Qin, he heard that Bai Dong defeated the Wei army and was about to be cede the land of the Western Regions by Ying Quliang, and he had a certainty in his heart. When he heard Bai Dong's inquiry, he actually knelt on one knee and replied with a solemn expression: "Report to Xijun, General Silder is a god of war, and his husband is even more like a heavenly man. Half of my Meng family soldiers have returned to Lao Qin, and there are less than 3,000 people left in the Western Regions.
It was these three thousand people who were led by General Xi and Mr. Sun, who were powerful in the Western Regions. Now, the most fierce Qiang people would tremble when they saw General Xi's flag and voluntarily put down their swords and guns to raise sheep. Mr. Sun's health was not very good. When he first arrived at the grassland, he would occasionally cough and get fever. However, in the past few months, he has eaten beef and mutton and drank goat milk every day. Mr. Sun has gained a lot of weight and his boxing skills are even more powerful. The three 10,000 Sek people are not his opponents."
"Oh? My senior brother has gained weight? You can stand up first."
Sun Bin is a good boxing technique, but there hasn't been a real internal boxing technique at this time. The more you practice boxing, the greater the physical damage. Mr. Jin Yong said that there is a boxing technique called "Seven Injury Fist". In fact, the boxing technique in the world is the seven Injury Fist that hurts oneself first and then others. Therefore, people in later generations said that they should be "three points to practice and seven points to nourish".
Unexpectedly, when Sun Bin arrived at the grassland of the Western Regions, he accidentally recovered his body. It was considered that he had not cheated on Senior Brother Sun in vain. Bai Dong nodded and said, "Meng Fang, you saluted me just now, call me Xijun?"
In the pre-Qin era, the "jun" was a general term. The king could be called the king, the prestigious nobles could also be called the king, and women could also call their men's "husband". Those who are famous dare to call the king, but in addition to the king, the "jun" in a broad sense is just a respectful title. People should not take it seriously if they give face to others. For example, the ministers of Qin can now call Bai Dong Bai Zi and Xi Jun privately. But if they really go to the court, they have to be called Guannei Hou, which is Bai Dong's real title.
But like Meng Fang, who respectfully called Bai Dong "Xijun", must be a retainer of the official family. According to the rules of the Warring States Period, nobles can raise scholars or raise a few slaves at home. However, if they really want to raise retainers, they must be a higher aristocrat who is qualified to establish a family city. This is very different from the Baijiazhuang before, and it is also different from the title of Mrs. Pinyang before the bitter wine, and can get local money and grain.
If Hou Bai Dong built a city in the Western Regions, as long as Ying Quliang did not carefully divide the fiefdom for him, the current Western Regions would be equivalent to his own country. He could establish feudal titles, collect taxes, and establish an army! This was how Wei Yang did in the Shangjun country. There were hundreds of cyclones and tens of thousands of private soldiers in the country, which was almost the size of a big country in the early Spring and Autumn Period. After being recognized as a rebellion by Qin, he had to send troops to break his home city before he could catch him. It can be seen how powerful the marquis of the country was.
"The King of the West is not as good as Baili Xi. Now he is divided into marquis and is now a marquis. The Western Regions are all Western Regions. In the past years, Meng Cheng deeply felt that the Rong people's bravery was dependent on Ling. If the King of the West was not good at using the arrangements, it would have become a big trouble for me, Qin in the future, but this big trouble has now become a sheep."
Meng Fang looked at Bai Dong with his head raised, and his eyes were not instantly instant: "Meng Fang has identified Xijun. In the future, I will have one in Xijun's family! The children of the Meng family who stayed in the Western Regions grassland also followed Xijun. If Xijun hadn't rescued him, the Meng family would not know how many heads would have been cut off."
"My mother is old, and the old man from Baijiazhuang may not want to go to the Western Regions. Besides, Fengming Academy cannot do without me, so in a short period of time, I never thought about going to the Western Regions to build a city in Xijun. I am afraid that it is also true. In this way, the children of the Meng family are willing to follow me?"
Bai Dong looked at Meng Fang with a smile. Ying Quliang would naturally not treat him like Ying Si treats Wei Yang in the future. He is actually not at risk, but where is the Western Regions? He is planning to "return to the light" and will collapse in less than 30 years. Alexander's mother has already married? This peerless baby who intimidates the East and West worlds in the future is about to emerge. If according to the original historical trajectory, Lao Qin and them will not have any intersection, but who lets him manage the Western Regions and make countless sheep come out? The Persians will sooner or later look east like Big Big Grey Wolf. The Macedonian elite may turn around in more than 20 years.
The world is like a big Rubik's Cube, changing everywhere. Bai Dong made up his mind that he could not guarantee the absolute safety of the Western Regions in one day, and he would never put his tribe members in danger. Unexpectedly, the Meng family was all warm and now he was asking to be his own retainer?
"With the reputation of the Western Regal, even if the city is not built for the time being, the Western Regions will be an unbreakable city! Meng Cheng and the Western Jun are the same, the children of the Meng family!"
Meng Cheng looked up at Bai Dong, his eyes firmly.
"It's up to you. If you and the children of the Meng family insist on being my retainers a year later, I will accept you."
Bai Dong nodded with a smile, walked over and patted Meng Cheng on the shoulder and said, "Now, go see someone with me, his name is Pang Cong."
