After Spring and Autumn

Chapter 47

Meng Di got up from his seat and bowed deeply to Ji Ran.

Experts in the world always like to make shocking remarks. If Handi is really useless, he will not come to visit him specially.However, the four points Ji Ran said really made Meng Di think deeply.

"Sir, Meng Di is a martial artist who is not polite. Would you like to stay and help me, sir?"

"If one thing can be done, Ji is willing to serve the Lord."

"please say."

"Go north to the Central Plains and start a new stove."

Central Plains?Meng Di pondered, after he came to this world, he went to Chu State, Wu State, and Yue State successively, all of which are in the south of the Yangtze River.There are many princes in the Central Plains, but they don't know where to start.

Seeing Mengdi groaning silently, Ji Ran shook his head and said: "My lord would like to stay in this remote place to seek hegemony, so I will pretend that Ji has never been here before." Then he stood up.

"Sir, wait a minute, I don't know where to go to the Central Plains."

"Lu country."

"Lu country?"

"Since the Sanhuan Rebellion, the national power of the Lu State has weakened, and the monarchy has fallen. However, because it is the place of Zhou Li, if you can get it, you can be among the princes, and the name is justified."

Got it!This Ji Ran's appetite is really not small, Meng Di looked excited, cupped his hands and said: "Please teach me, sir."

Ji Ran smiled slightly, but changed the subject and asked, "Is your lord the surname Meng?"

"good."

"Where did you come from?"

"This..." Meng Di didn't know why he brought the topic to himself, but he really didn't know where he was born.

"The surname Meng originated from the Gaoyang family. It is a descendant of Zhuanxu, the son of the Fuxi family and the grandson of the Yellow Emperor. It was later entrusted to Mengdi and took the surname as the surname."

"It's true!" Meng Di was very excited. After two lifetimes, he finally knew his origin.In the previous life, Li Ling once said that when he took him in, he found that he was pregnant with a jade pendant, and wrote the word "Mongolian" in his letter, which seemed to have an origin, so he did not change his surname to Li.

"Mengdi is a hundred miles east of Qufu, Lucheng, near Yishui. There are still people with the surname Meng living today."

Meng Di left his seat again, bowed respectfully, and said: "Meng Di lived in Chu, and I only found out about it today, sir, please accept my worship."

Ji Ran sat upright with a smile, and after receiving the salute, he also got up and bowed respectfully, and said: "Ji Ran is willing to serve the Lord, I wonder if the Lord will accept you?"

"It's great, I can get Mr.'s help, what's the matter?" Meng Di hastily helped Ji Ran up, thinking that it was so.

The titles are established, and the two sat down as monarchs and ministers. Mengdi asked curiously: "I heard that Mr. Xiaoao is among the mountains and rivers, avoids the world, and enjoys fishing in his free time. How can he know so much about the affairs of the world?"

"I regard the world as a lake, and the princes as fish, so I can catch them myself."

After that, the two laughed heartily.

Although Ji Ran looked dismissive of Han Di just now, those remarks were just a stepping stone to attract Meng Di's attention.

Now that they plan to go north to Lu State, it is natural to stabilize the rear first.

Ji Ran's first suggestion is: Take a concubine.

Meng Di couldn't laugh or cry, isn't this a serious matter?Why do you turn around yourself again.

"This is the business, and it's a major matter related to the stability of Han."

"Sir, have you said this before, whether I take a concubine or not can affect the stability of the Han land?"

"Exactly, the lord has no family here, and the safety of the Han land depends on the lord alone, so how can the people feel at ease. The lord not only needs to take concubines, but also has children as soon as possible. This is the most important thing in the Han land at present."

Meng Di was speechless, a red figure appeared in front of his eyes, "Peng'er, are you okay now?"
"If the lord has someone he likes, there is no need to worry. This time, he is only taking a concubine, and the position of main wife is still reserved."

"Is there a suitable candidate?"

"The daughter of the Han family."

"Qiu'er? Absolutely not." Meng Di hurriedly waved his hands, "Qiu'er is still young."

Ji Ran added: "Besides, Han Qu only has one daughter, even if she is only eight or nine years old, she can only be this daughter."

In the end, Mengdi was persuaded, but he did not expect that Jiran would ask Su'er to be his concubine again.

"Why is that?"

"Miss Su'er is very skilled. Going to the Central Plains will be a big help. Besides, the lord and Miss Su'er get along day and night. If there is no status, it will be very inconvenient."

"How long have you been in Handi, sir, why does he seem to know everything well?" Mengdi asked strangely.

Ji Ran smiled and said, "My lord, don't blame me for being troubled."

The Han people were overjoyed when they heard about this, and the whole family felt like celebrating a festival. Han Lei immediately led the people to worship their ancestors.

On the other hand, Qiu'er, who is usually fearless, hides shyly and dare not see anyone.

It is a big deal for the lord to take a concubine, and the whole Han land is boiling, even happier than when the grain harvest is bumper, and it also makes Meng Di understand that what Ji Ran said is true.

While watching the ceremony, Ji Chao said to Zhong Ying who was beside him, "People in Han are stable now, and prosperity can be expected. If the four clans don't know how to advance or retreat, they may be asking for trouble."

During the bridal chamber, Mengdi encountered a difficult situation. According to the salute rules, Qiu'er came first, but in his mind, Qiu'er was still a child.

After hesitating for a long time under the maid's strange gaze, he had no choice but to grit his teeth and push the door open.

Red candles flickered in the room, and a slim figure sat with his head bowed.

Meng Di lightly lifted the hijab, feeling dazed for a while, the woman in front of her with thin powder and fine eyes is really the dark and thin Xiao Shanyue she met at the foot of the mountain back then?
The slightly shy voice of "Husband" brought Meng Di back to his thoughts.

The next sentence completely changed the atmosphere: "Husband, I'm hungry." After finishing speaking, he stuck out his tongue embarrassingly.

This is what Qiu'er should look like, Meng Di smiled in relief, since he hadn't eaten all day, he was naturally very hungry.

Calling the servant girl to bring in the food, Meng Di was very happy to see Qiu'er eating happily. After all, Qiu'er was the first person he knew in Han.

"Husband, am I being rude?" Qiu'er, whose mouth was full of food, suddenly said worriedly.Before getting married, my mother repeatedly told me to behave like a lady. "

"It's okay, I like Qiu'er like this."

The two smiled at each other.

In the end, Mengdi just slept with Qiu'er in his arms.

For Qiu'er, who only half understood, sleeping together was sharing the same room, and she could finally proudly announce that she was Brother Meng's woman.

Su'er performed the ceremony the next day, regardless of her status, she was ranked after Qiu'er.

Su'er's surname is Tian, ​​and Meng Di was informed of this before the salute, as usual, she still faced everything calmly.

But Mengdi knew that she was happy. The two traveled together and fought against the enemy together, and they had already had a tacit understanding.

Qiu'er still calls Su'er her sister, but in her heart, she doesn't have the concept of being big or small.

Han Qu logically became the magistrate of the Han area, and the Han clan also became the veritable largest clan in the Han area, and would also become the spokesperson of the Han area after Meng Di went north.

Ji Ran agrees with Meng Di's approach of weakening the family, but feels that it is a bit too much.Right now, the Han clan is dominant, and it is even more important to support other clans to balance it out.
