Chapter 238 Meng Tian
Before Liu Bai became the son-in-law, the Xiongnu Chanyu's courtship angered Yingzheng.

He sent Meng Tian to command an army of 30 to drive the Xiongnu out of the Hetao area and set up Jiuyuan County.

From there, Meng Tian never returned to Xianyang.

Leading 30 troops to station in Jiuyuan County, repairing straight roads and building the Great Wall, he was extremely busy.

Hearing that Liu Bai was coming this time, he started preparations early.

On the official road leading to Jiuyuan County, Liu Bai and Ying Yinman rode together on the same horse.

Looking at the outline of the city in the distance, Ying Yinman looked back and smiled.

"Husband, is this the final destination of your trip?"

The two headed north from Jibei County, and then headed west after arriving in Liaodong County.

It has been more than a month since I arrived in Jiuyuan County at this moment.

Coupled with the cold climate in the north, Liu Bai hugged her tightly with a smile.

"I am the one who knows me!"

Yingyinman snorted arrogantly.

"Of course! But after we go to Jiuyuan County, we should go back, otherwise the father may let General Wang come to arrest us..."

Liu Bai nodded and agreed.

"That's right! New Year's Day is coming, if you don't go back, father should be in a hurry..."

After Yingzheng ruled the world, he changed the first day of October to the beginning of each year, so the Chinese New Year will be about a month away.

Ying Yinman turned to look at him.

"Can we make it back?"

Liu Bai nodded affirmatively.

"Don't worry! I will be able to rush back."

Ying Yinman smiled mischievously.

"It doesn't matter whether you go back or not, as long as I can be with you..."

Liu Bai didn't answer her again, but just hugged her tighter.

As they got closer to Jiuyuan County, the prefecture of Jiuyuan County, the two could see it more clearly.

outside the city gate.

Under the leadership of Meng Tian, ​​the senior generals in the army have been waiting for a long time.

The guards on both sides of the road stood straight, and the Lie Lie army flag was waving in the wind.

On the front of the flag, the big "Qin" character dances with the wind.

Seeing the two getting closer, Meng Tian took two steps forward and said loudly.

"The last general, Meng Tian, ​​leads all the generals under his command to welcome the princess and the son-in-law!"

Everyone behind them shouted in unison, then knelt down on one knee, waiting for the two to approach.

In front of everyone, Ying Yinman and Liu Bai had already dismounted.

Looking at the kneeling generals, Ying Yinman said.

"You generals have worked hard, get up quickly!"

"Thank you princess!"

Liu Bai touched his nose, and stood quietly behind Ying Yinman.

"See Prince Consort!"

"Free gift!"

"Thank you consort!"

After finishing the necessary procedures, Meng Tian looked at Ying Yinman respectfully.

"The princess has worked hard all the way, please go to the city to rest..."

Nodding, Ying Yinman put on the airs of a princess and went straight to the city.

Glancing at Liu Bai who was half a step later, the corners of his mouth slightly raised.

I don't know how my son-in-law is feeling at the moment?
Leading the two of them to the prepared residence all the way, Meng Tian repeatedly accused him of crimes.

"Princess, this place is barren, so the living quarters are relatively simple. Please don't blame the princess!"

Ying Yinman waved her hand generously.

When I was in Qu County, I was so tired that I just found a room and went to sleep.

Now this place is much better!

"Don't say that, General Meng, it's already very good!"

Taking a peek at her, Meng Tian felt a little surprised.

He has been in Beidi and has never returned to Beijing. Although he knew that the princess had woken up, it was the first time he saw her.

Compared with when she was a child, the princess seems to be a lot more sensible!

When the food was served, Ying Yinman looked at Meng Tian with a smile.

"You generals are court heroes, don't be cautious, please sit down!"

Meng Tian nodded and sat in the last seat to accompany him.

The other generals were also sitting at other tables, silently looking at Liu Bai.

Although they have been in the Northland all the time, it is said that this son-in-law invented the three-piece suit for their mounts.

Meng Tian was also looking at Liu Bai, although they didn't meet each other, but he was grateful to him in his heart.

After all, the two brothers were not in the court, and the son-in-law never forgot them when Rang contributed the land.

Otherwise, if there is an omission, there will always be some people who will hold on to it.

Even if they are not afraid of these things, they should be scared, right?

Picking up the wine glass, Meng Tian stood up and looked at Liu Bai.

"The princess is just recovering from a serious illness, so it's not suitable to drink alcohol, so let's offer a cup to the concubine at the end!"

Although he didn't say anything, Liu Bai could clearly see the gratitude in his eyes.

Although I don't know the reason, I still drink this glass of wine.

Ying Yinman looked at them with a smile, just sipping food.

It seems that at this moment, the primary and secondary positions of the two have changed.

Liu Bai put down his wine glass and looked at Meng Tian seriously.

"General Meng, is there something wrong with the Huns?"

Meng Tian sighed and said.

"The son-in-law also knows that His Majesty ordered the Great Wall to be built, and the Xiongnu naturally knew that it was used to defend them, so they kept sending small groups of cavalry to harass them... every time they just let the workers stop working and leave. It can be prevented..."

Liu Bai nodded, as expected.

Anyone who knows that what the enemy is doing is to defend themselves will do sabotage.

"Did they find anything like a horseshoe?"

With a laugh, Meng Tian shook his head and said.

"Don't worry, son-in-law. Old General Wang has already stated that this item can only be used for military training and must not be discovered by the Huns, otherwise it will be dealt with by military law..."

"With Old General Wang saying this first, who dares to leak it? Besides, not only did we not let them find out, but we also made them think that our riding skills have not improved at all!
"When I sent people to chase them, they never used horseshoes and other things, and they would occasionally pretend to fall off their horses when they ran halfway, which is no different from the past...

"The last general is waiting for a big battle!"

Liu Bai glanced at Meng Tian with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he never expected that such a simple and honest man would play such tricks...

Sure enough, people can't be seen!
In Meng Tian's view, these things are normal.

After all, marching and fighting, if you can't figure out the truth, don't blame yourself for losing your life!

"General Meng is a great talent, I admire you! Come on, I will toast you!"

Meng Tian stood up flattered.

What do you mean?After saying a few words, they started to call each other brothers?

"My son-in-law don't want to offend the last general, let the last general respect you with this glass of wine!"

Seeing that he was still polite, Liu Bai did not force it.

"Alright, please, General Meng!"

After finishing drinking, Liu Bai put the wine glass on the table, frowned and poured it down.

"General, your wine tastes a bit off. Would you like to try the wine I brought?"

Meng Tian looked at the wine in the glass, then at Liu Bai, but said nothing.

The generals below were a little unhappy.

In order to welcome them, the wine brought up this time was something they were not willing to drink at all.

The north is bitterly cold, and the wine in their hands is already the best.

Now being rejected by the son-in-law, I suddenly feel a little uncomfortable!
Liu Bai looked at their expressions and knew what they were thinking.

Rolling his eyes, he said calmly.

"General Meng, I can tell you that I brewed this wine myself. Apart from Your Majesty, General Wang and Li Xiang, you are the fourth one to taste it!"

Meng Tian's eyes lit up when he heard the words, and he clapped his hands and said.

"Since this is the case, then you must try the handicraft of the son-in-law!"

Liu Bai laughed and made a gesture.

Yu Huatian in the dark understood, and immediately asked Yingwei to bring up the wine jar.
