After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 177
How could it be that Nangong Hao didn't understand the reason for this, it was just because there was some luck in his heart, facing such a bustling place, not being able to stretch out his hand was simply unbearable.

He himself didn't dare to come forward to bargain with Mengdi, so he put his idea on Ji Chao. Now after hearing this, he sighed and said helplessly.

"I didn't expect that the princes of the world have completely disregarded the dignity of the emperor for their own self-interest. If things go on like this, I am afraid that one day, this Mengzi may not replace him."

When Ji Chao heard that this guy was getting more and more outrageous, he began to scold him.

"If you still want to keep your head, shut your mouth immediately, get out of here, don't talk nonsense here, you don't have any ideas at all, but you are pushing everyone to a dead end!"

Some things can be thought in the heart, but must not be said in the mouth. Ji Chao understands this truth very well, and he is also full of disappointment in his heart. No matter what Nangong Ye is walking with him, he did not expect that since he is so stupid .

Ji Chao couldn't help but sigh in his heart. With such a person by his side, it's fine if he can't make up his mind, and he may bring disaster to him at any time. This really made his situation worse.

According to the current situation, although Meng Di did not give him a fiefdom, all expenses in the palace are basically in accordance with the etiquette of the emperor, and the daily expenses are also very huge, but Meng Di has no objection .

This has already made Ji Chao feel satisfied. You must know that when you were in Luoyi, the royal family of Zhou could not make ends meet every year, and they had to rely on the tribute from the vassal states to maintain the dignity of the emperor.

Although the life in front of him is not so comfortable, it is still very rare. Ji Chao only hopes that one day he can return to Luoyi and become the emperor of the world. As for other things, he dare not think about them, let alone do them.

At this time, Meng Di had already received the latest news about the state of Jin. Zhao Yang changed his name to Zhifu, and the handsome army besieged Chaoge, winning consecutive battles. The state of Qi was busy making alliances with other vassal states. .

Seeing that a big battle is coming soon, after several years of busy work, Mengdi already has tens of thousands of pieces of iron armor, and all the cavalry wear stirrups, and the attack power is even stronger when fighting, so his focus now has been Switched to infantry.

The training of the elite infantry was in Huaicheng, while Boren in Mengyi referred to Liu Xiatuo's training method, simplified it to a certain extent, and then began to train regular infantry. When he first recruited, he got nearly 5 people.

Now there is a top priority for Mengdi, that is food, Bai Gui is already making preparations, he has collected a lot of rice seeds, and he has chosen different places for trial planting, and the effect will be seen soon.

When the problem of rice planting is solved, the food problem will probably be solved, but as long as the result is not seen for a day, Meng Di will not feel relieved.

But it was at this time that Tian Chang rushed to Huai City. Looking at the majestic city in front of him, he was also filled with admiration. He had heard the name of Huai City before, but he had never seen it before.

Looking around now, it is comparable to Linzi in Qi State, or even worse. The city wall is wide and thick, and it is newly built, giving people an unreal feeling.

At this time, Meng Di had already sent Bai Gui to greet him. After arriving in the city, Tian Chang even sighed that there were not many people living here, but there were quite a lot of caravans coming and going, and they were orderly. clean.

Obviously, someone was dedicated to maintaining it, which made Tian Chang feel deeply moved, and he immediately realized his previous views on Mengdi.Obviously there is a deviation, this person is more powerful than he imagined.

At the first time, Tian Chang did not go to see the nominal Zhou Tianzi, but went directly to visit Meng Di. Now the identities of the two parties have clearly differed. In the past, they were regarded as equals, but now Tian Chang is obviously inferior. one head.

Although he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, Tian Chang still bowed in a proper manner.

"Qi State envoy Tian Chang has met the Marquis of Han."

At this moment, Meng Di laughed. He did not have a different attitude because of the change of status, but stepped forward very enthusiastically, held Tian Chang's hand, and said happily.

"I really didn't expect that the first person to come to Huai City was Mr. Tian. I don't know why Mr. Tian came this time?"

Seeing that Meng Di's tone of voice was not much different from before, Tian Chang felt better in his heart. His face was full of emotion, he wrinkled his eyes and said enviously.

"I didn't expect that in such a short period of time, the identity between you and me would have such a change. Meng Zi, you turned into a Hanhou, which made Tian very envious. This time, there are mainly two business matters. "

"On official matters, Marquis Qi wants to invite Marquis Han to attack Jin together, so that we can sign an offensive and defensive alliance, which will benefit both of you and me. How about Marquis Han?"

After hearing this, Meng Di did not give an answer on the spot, but smiled and declined.

"Now that Huai City is in ruins, I don't have much spare energy. Let me think about it. Just now, Mr. Tian said that there are private matters. I don't know what he is referring to?"

Originally, Tian Qi and his son planned to buy wine to cause Mengdi's food shortage, and then force him to turn to Tian's.

But unexpectedly, Mengdi transformed himself and established the Han Kingdom. Under such circumstances, it is impossible for the Tian family to control Mengdi. In this case, everyone can only cooperate, so Tian Chang said.

"Before, the private transactions between my Tian family and Hanhou made quite a lot of profits, but now the status of Hanhou is different, and he also owns such a large territory, so Tian wants to ask, how did our cooperation before? Does it count?"

Meng Di laughed. He knew very well in his heart that because of his sudden display of strength, Tian felt the crisis, so he used this relatively soft tone to talk about cooperation with him. This is a very good idea. phenomenon, so he said.

"Cooperating with your Tian family is beneficial to both parties. This king can't think of any reason not to cooperate? Moreover, Mr. Tian must have seen it when he entered Huai City. There are endless caravans here. I don't know if Tian's Do you intend to come to Huai City to do business?"
