Mythology Starts with Childish Skills
Chapter 1535 Selfishness (Please subscribe)
After the servants cleared the dining table, Meng Hongdao and Meng Zhao went to the study to continue discussing matters, while brothers Meng Yan and Meng Chuan were pulled to teach them a lesson by An Hui.
In fact, it was said to be a lesson, but An Hui was a mother after all, and she took her children very seriously, so she ignored them and mainly urged her two children to strive for success.
Meng Yan was probably dead, but it would be good to marry a good girl and have a few fat boys in the future. Meng Chuan placed his hopes on her and Meng Hongdao, and was trained and mentored by Meng Zhao's side.
An Hui and Meng Hongdao did not expect Meng Chuan to catch up with Meng Zhao. Even if he had only half of Meng Zhao's achievements, it would be enough.
To paraphrase a common saying, one has to die when comparing others, and one has to throw away when comparing goods. Of course Meng Chuan is a genius, and he is sincere and dedicated to martial arts, but in this world, there are differences in talent. Geniuses are also divided into three, six, and nine grades. There is no doubt that Meng Zhao's talent is top-notch in ancient and modern times. It is basically impossible for Meng Chuan to catch up with him.
This is a dream that even if you are a parent and have high hopes for your children, you will never dream...
On the other side, there were only two people in the study room. Meng Hongdao asked Meng Zhao carefully about all kinds of information about the two royal guards. After a long time, he said,
"Zhao'er, do you know that since the emperor is dissatisfied with and afraid of our Meng family, why does he not suppress our Meng family but instead sends people to target you?"
Meng Zhao knew what he expected, smiled bitterly, pointed at himself, and said,
"Because of my existence, the Meng family lost control. At the same time, I was in charge of the army and had military power. It also caused the strength of the Meng family to expand rapidly, surpassing the Lei family in Beining. It would be difficult for the two sides to balance, so the emperor wanted to target me.
As long as I fall, the Meng family will still be the Meng family, and the Lei family will still become the two heroes of Jizhou, maintaining the past situation. "
Meng Hongdao nodded in approval. This true dragon son of his family really brings surprises every time they meet and every time he hears about it. Is there really someone who knows everything in this world?
"That's right. Since the founding of Dayong, Jizhou has actually been one of the nine ancient states. It has a vast land, dense population, and rich resources. It can be said that it has a rich heritage. Logically speaking, there should be a city that can be compared to the Nine Surnames and Ten States. The huge power of three families was born.
In fact, in Jizhou, there are powerful families, big and small, and noble honors dotted here and there. Although each family can benefit from it, there is far from a top force.
The Hou Lei family of Beining and our Meng family of Nan'an are the largest forces in Jizhou. This is due not only to the contributions of our ancestors, but also to the support and suppression of the Beitang royal family.
Speaking of support, it was the Lei family and the Meng family who had been sitting on the land for such a long time. They had also encountered many dangers, provocations, and even behemoths who wanted to take over Jizhou.
Fortunately, the royal family came forward to stabilize the situation. Over time, a confrontation between the two powers was formed. "
"As for suppression, it was also during such a long period of time. After our two families developed to a certain level, they inevitably clashed. You should also know that there is no room for two tigers in one mountain.
But every time my Meng family gains the upper hand, or the Lei family gains the upper hand, the royal family will intervene.
This situation has lasted for nearly a hundred years until now. "
"Because of Zhao'er's emergence, the prestige of our Meng family has skyrocketed, and our strength has also increased tremendously. Now we have completely surpassed the Lei family, and the confrontation between the two powers has been completely broken.
Moreover, Zhaoer, with your talent and potential, you will only get stronger and stronger in the future, and the Lei family will have no chance to breathe.
When that time comes, our Meng family will conquer the Lei family, and we can even take advantage of Jizhou's heritage and become one of the nine surnames.
Of course, this refers to the time of peace. Now that the world is in chaos and all rebel kings have risen, Jizhou can become the foundation of the king's hegemony, and the royal family will not give it up easily.
This is the reason why you are regarded as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh by the emperor and the royal family.
Otherwise, no matter how strong your martial arts potential is, you are just a martial artist. Even if you are invincible, how can you still rival an dynasty? "
"However, as I said before, the emperor's current opponent is definitely not the Meng family. He is only afraid of you, not to the point where he has to get rid of you and then quickly. So, don't worry too much. Just be careful. Two is enough.”
"I know this. If the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them. But if I build a towering mountain by myself, what can a little storm do to me?"
"This is exactly the reason. Although external intervention will bring you trouble, as long as you are strong internally and externally, you can remain unmoved."
"Third Uncle, what I said to you today actually has another meaning. With Zhao'er's current cultivation level, potential, and the power you control, even Third Uncle, I can't forget to mention it. How many brothers of your generation are you? , I'm afraid it will be even worse.
Zhao'er, are you interested in the position of head of the family and the position of Earl of Nan'an? "
The head of the family is the head of the family, and the title is the title. These are two concepts.
Under normal circumstances, the head of the family is Nan Anbo. They are two persons with unrivaled ability and majesty in the family, and their influence is unparalleled.
However, the unusual situation now may lead to the fact that the head of the family is the head of the family, and Nan Amber is Nan Amber. The bloodline is definitely the same family, but they may not be the same person.
Meng Zhao smiled,
"Is this what you want to ask, third uncle, or is it what uncle wants to ask?"
"Don't worry about it, just tell me what you think."
Meng Hongdao also had some worries in his heart. This issue was not something he thought about day and night, but it gradually became a worry.
If in the past, the world was peaceful, the royal family was powerful, and China was stable, the Meng family would still follow the idea of slowly building up and strengthening, and it would be fine to choose the heirs with the two sons of the eldest house, and merge the head of the family with the Earl of Nan'an.
After all, although the two nephews of the eldest house are not top talents, they are also considered to be above average. With the foundation of the Meng family and the unity of the people, it is also feasible to slowly increase the strength.
The key is that Meng Zhao is too strong, too dazzling, and too powerful. He has overwhelmed the two sons of the eldest house, his two sons, and they are almost not even a foil.
With such a wise and powerful direct bloodline with unlimited potential and unparalleled martial arts, if he is not chosen as the head of the family to lead the family to overcome difficulties and move forward, it would be a waste of heaven's gift.
This is not a choice, but a necessity.
If such a genius becomes disunited because of a wrong choice, then the Meng family will definitely not be able to bear such a loss.
Everyone has selfish desires, and it is not impossible to have selfish desires. It is also human nature to hope that one's offspring will inherit the business and leave the last to the offspring, but selfishness should not be too much.
Meng Zhao's performance is enough to break the so-called selfish category, and people have to further consider the choice of heirs.
Otherwise, it will be disadvantageous to the family. If this big hat is put on, it will be a sin to apologize to the ancestors.
Meng Hongdao did not dare to bear it, and Meng Jizu certainly did not dare to do it. (End of this chapter)
