The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 249 Mi Yun urgently needs the king to replenish his energy

Look at where this place is and who is around you.

The three generations of leading figures in the Meng family include the brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi; the three generations in the Wang family include Wang Li; the three brothers of the Feng family include Gan Luo, Zhang Han, Li Xin, and Wang Ao, and Li Bing's second son Li Jian and youngest son Li Yuan.

There are also several elite children of important officials of the Qin Dynasty, as well as core disciples of the Confucian, Mohist, Taoist and Gongshu schools.

The only few people with weak foundations and poor family backgrounds are all outstanding people, selected from the best of the best from the Xianyang Academy. When it comes to martial arts talent, character and perseverance, they are even more admirable.

You have to know that it is a rare talent for someone from a poor family or even a commoner to enter the Xianyang Academy, and it is unimaginable how difficult it is to be selected as a Shizhong. For such a person, it is no exaggeration to say that he is a dragon among men and his ancestral graves are on fire.

From a commoner to a minister, even if it takes five generations, each generation will jump to a higher level.

Not to mention being entrusted with important tasks in the future, starting out as a high-ranking official, and being granted the title of nobility and prime minister and enjoying generations of glory are not out of reach.

Smart people can always integrate into the environment quickly, and smart people always make the right decisions.

Ying Zheng noticed the performance of Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang and was very satisfied with it. He believed that abilities can be cultivated but attitude is the key.

The two of them clearly had no problem with their attitudes.

Even for Ying Zheng, it was a happy thing that the world's top young talents surrendered and pledged allegiance to him.

Talent is the most important at all times. Now the Qin Dynasty has many brave generals and civil officials, the younger generation is full of enthusiasm, and it has a talent selection and promotion system that is ahead of the times, covering all classes. What can the six countries rely on to fight against the Qin Dynasty?
The future situation is not only good, but also very good.
Speaking of which, Chu has been very active recently, actively sending lobbyists to Wei, Zhao, Yan and Han, and they are sneaky, wanting to do bad things and wanting others to lead them. Ha! Do you really think that everyone can't see it? The other four countries are not fools either.

If you want to tear up the contract first, don't blame me for having my eyes on you too.

Speaking of the State of Chu, Ying Zheng thought of Mi Yun. He hadn't visited her for a long time, and even Hua'er hadn't seen her. As the war broke out, he was too busy to accompany the beauty, so when he was not too busy, he would directly summon her to the Lanchi Palace to sleep with him. It has been a while, and the queen mother also mentioned last time that Yun'er really served her very well, so it was indeed time to go and see her.

Well, I should have recovered by now. It’s been almost half a year.

It’s not the royal family and powerful families’ fault for neglecting family affection. Take Ying Zheng for example. He was already busy with government affairs. After deducting his rest time, as there were more and more women and children in the harem, the time he could really spend with them became less and less. The depth of family affection is directly proportional to the amount of time spent together.

Especially the relationship between father and son. The total time they spend together in a year may not exceed three days. It would be a miracle if they can still have such a deep relationship.

No wonder there are so many loving fathers and filial sons in the royal family.

There is no emotion, but there is the temptation of tremendous power, so naturally, unspeakable things always happen.

When Ying Zheng thought of this, he thought that it was time to go see Mi Yun. It would be fine if he didn't think of her normally, but when he really thought of her, he really missed her a lot.

Send someone to tell them that we'll be staying overnight at Yunmeng Palace.

Mi Yun is playing mahjong with Zhao Ji in Ganquan Palace. Also in Ganquan Palace today are Ying Xin and Gongsun Li.

She lost the most.

She has been absent-minded more and more recently. Zhao Ji felt sorry for the child and decided to have dinner with her today. She should give her a hint to the rebellious child. She had said it last time, but it has been a few days. She is really not obedient. After all, she has won too much recently and she is a little embarrassed.

Mi Yun didn't care about such a small amount of wealth. She was not like those Qiang beauties. She had no external support or backing, no dowry, and no extra income. Apart from her monthly salary, she relied on Ying Zheng's rewards. She lived a tight life.

Mi Yun's dowry alone was enough to squander for ten lifetimes, so the money for gambling on mahjong was really not worth mentioning. The Queen Mother would be happy if she won anyway, and Mi Yun didn't care at all.

The cruelest thing in this world is that if you want to live comfortably, you must have money, even to have a harem.

Money is currency, and it is the product of commodity exchange. When human civilization develops to a certain stage, money represents resources to a certain extent. It is a measure of value and a tool for the better circulation of all commodities.

Everyone in the harem has a monthly allowance, but it is fixed according to one's position. Even Zhao Ji has one. It's the rule. Of course, Zhao Ji doesn't care about that monthly allowance at all.

Although the concubines in the harem are provided with food and accommodation, as well as seasonal rewards, and they do not have to worry about medical expenses, the monthly allowances for different positions are very different. It is not an easy thing to live comfortably with just this monthly allowance. Apart from basic survival, in the palace, apart from being favored by the king and being fawned upon by everyone, you need to spend money everywhere if you want to do anything.

Even if one has a high position and receives a high monthly salary, the ceremony is also grand and there are many daily expenses. Relying solely on that little monthly salary is simply a drop in the bucket.

If you are alone in this palace, it would be best if you are favored by the king. With the king's favor, you will naturally lack nothing. If you are not valued, the master may not live better than a powerful servant.

Just like the four girls Chunhua, Qiushi, Xiayue and Dongxue, although they had no relatives in the outer court and their positions were not high, they lived a comfortable life and no one dared to bully them, because they were very favored, the rewards they received on a daily basis were even more generous, and they were also generous to their servants.

All the eunuchs and maids in the palace were ordered around by them before, but now that they have become the king's concubines, naturally their lives are more comfortable. Moreover, even though they have achieved positions, Ying Zheng has specially allowed them to continue to stay by his side. With this treatment of daily companionship, no one dares to be disrespectful to them.

Positions flow from top to bottom, and power flows from bottom to top.

But there is another rule: the closer you are to the center of power, the greater the power.

The negative example is the beautiful women of the Qiang ethnic group. They are the ones who desire the king's favor the most, even if it is just to sleep with him a few more times. It is not about how much they love him, it is purely about survival and whether they can survive better.

Mi Yun naturally had no shortage of anything related to money. She was born into an extremely noble family. Even in the Qin Dynasty, her brother held a high position. As for money, she had never worried about it since she was born. She had no concept of it.

Currently in the harem, she has the highest position among Ying Zheng’s women, and has the unique title of Lady Yunmeng.

The reason why Mi Yun is listless is very simple, because she loves Ying Zheng, and only the king's favor can make her energetic. Now she is lacking the energy of the king's favor, and urgently needs Ying Zheng to replenish it. Only Ying Zheng can replenish it.

Thousands of maple leaves cover thousands of branches, and the river bridge covers the late evening sail.

Recalling Jun's heart is like the West River, flowing day and night without rest.

Longing and dependence are like human bones and flesh, tightly fitted and entangled.
