The Moon in the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 293 An unexpected gain

Seeing that Zi Nu did not refute, the beauty was extremely shocked and looked at Zi Nu with great envy: "You are worthy of being my sister. With a beauty like my sister, my sister's man must not be an ordinary person."

The people around knew nothing about this at this time. They were all looking at Zi Nu with shock and envy, and were also sincerely happy for her.

How can I not be happy that my good sister, who has always taken care of me, has finally solved her lifelong problem and has such a good ending? Besides, the higher the sister's status, the greater the support she will have for her sisters.

Now I understand why Sister Zi Nu said that she might not have time to manage Zi Lian Pavilion. Naturally, she will have no time after entering the palace.

Along the way, the beauties were chattering excitedly, and Zi Nu was accompanying them lovingly. They were afraid that they would not have much time together in the future.

After returning, Zi Nu made some brief arrangements and went to Wei Liao's mansion. The doorman naturally recognized his master's disciple and hurriedly and respectfully invited Zi Nu to come in and sit down. Zi Nu thanked the doorman and waited patiently.

It was not until late at night that Wei Liao returned to his mansion exhausted.

Now that the territory of Daqin is getting bigger and bigger, there are naturally more and more things to do, coupled with the complicated situation in the world, especially the planning for various countries next year.

As a national captain, he was naturally very busy, and he was dealing with a workaholic like Ying Zheng, so it was difficult for him to be lazy.

No matter how high your cultivation level is, you will inevitably be mentally exhausted after all due to your age.

I don't have time to ask about Zi Nu's affairs today.

After coming back and hearing the report from the doorman, he understood everything in his heart, gathered his spirits, swept away his fatigue, and walked towards the hall.

When Zi Nu saw Wei Liao, she quickly stood up and stepped forward, bowing respectfully: "Disciple greets the teacher, I wish the teacher good health."

Wei Liao smiled and said, "Okay, okay, everything is fine with you, Master. Get up quickly, get up quickly."

Wei Liao showed his kindness and laughed, "Teacher was busy with many affairs today and came back late. I have already eaten in the palace. Has Zi'er eaten yet?"

Zi Nu smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Master. The steward has treated us very well. I have already eaten."

Wei Liao nodded repeatedly: "Okay, that's good."

"You have always been sensible and have never come to me casually. You are in high spirits today. I believe something good must have happened. Tell me about it quickly."

Zi Nu nodded and said, "Teacher, I have something to report to you."

Zi Nu bowed down:

"Yesterday, the King and the Queen Mother went on a private visit in disguise and happened to arrive at the Purple Lotus Pavilion. The King was grateful that he did not despise my humble status and wanted to summon me to the palace as a concubine."

"Teacher has been very kind to me. I have received your loving care, just like a father. I dare not remain silent on this important matter of my life, so I come here today to report to you."

Wei Liao helped him up and said hurriedly, "Hurry up, hurry up, sit down and talk."

Zi Nu stood up and sat upright. Wei Liao smiled and nodded, "I didn't expect that we would have such a fate. This is also a good thing. You are nearly 20 years old. You have worked hard these years. Your teacher is always worried about your lifelong event. Sometimes it is not good for a woman to be too outstanding."

Wei Liao smiled slightly: "You are talented and beautiful, and you are proud and arrogant. It is difficult for ordinary men to catch your eye."

"If it's the king, then it's appropriate. The king is indeed the greatest man in the world and will never humiliate you." Zi Nu said softly, "Teacher, you are too kind. I am just a little girl. If it weren't for you, I would have died without a burial place. How could I have a peaceful life today?"

"The teacher's kindness is something that the students will remember in their hearts and will never forget."

"Today, the king summoned me to the palace. The king also approves of my intentions. I will certainly accept your approval for my life-long affairs. I have been specially allowed to come and report to you."

Wei Liao nodded slightly, and said with a smile: "I naturally know your character, you value friendship and loyalty, and you are tenacious. The king is even more kind and generous. I am also very happy that we can be together."

"But the situation in the palace is complicated after all. You have been through a lot these years. I can't just watch you without anyone to rely on. I still have some face in front of the king. I am childless, too. My dear child, if you are willing, I will take you in as my adopted daughter. Tomorrow I will go to the palace and ask the king to take you in."

Zi Nu was overjoyed. She was so lucky to have such an unexpected gain. She bowed down in haste and expressed her gratitude: "Father, I am so grateful for your kindness."

Wei Liao smiled happily and said, "Hurry up, good boy. We are a family from now on. Don't be so formal and stop doing this kind of ceremony all the time."

"After the court session tomorrow, I will tell the king about this matter."

Zi Nu smiled and said, "Thank you, father."

Wei Liao teased, "But I'm afraid your entry into the palace will be postponed again. After tomorrow, your father will invite colleagues and friends to hold the ceremony of accepting your daughter on the day of rest."

Zi Nu said, "It is my great honor to be your daughter. Why should I make such a big fuss about it? I feel really guilty for making my father work so hard."

Wei Liao shook his head and smiled, "Of course not. You are my first child, how can I be careless? You don't have to worry about this. Leave everything to me."

Zi Nu said gratefully: "Thank you, father."

Wei Liao hesitated for a moment and then said, "If you enter the palace, what are your plans for Zi Lian Pavilion?"

"My daughter thinks that even in the palace, if you want to do something, you still need money, and the Purple Lotus Pavilion can also be a little bit of private income for my daughter."

"After my daughter enters the palace, I plan to let Caidie and the others take care of it. Zilian Pavilion is already on the right track, and the king did not deliberately hide it when he went there yesterday, so there should be no shortage of business in the future. They can stay with my daughter for a few years and do a good job."

Wei Liao nodded: "Okay, tell them that if they have any problems, they can come to see their father at any time."

Zi Nu nodded.

Wei Liao sighed softly: "Although the palace is good, the situation in the palace is also complicated. The royal family has no private affairs. The king's harem is closely related to the previous dynasty and it is absolutely difficult to give it up."

"As a man from another country, my father suddenly held a high position and had to show his loyalty. Moreover, most of the scholars of Wei State regarded my father as their leader. There is also the Wei State's Grand Marshal Wei Yong, who is quite useful. His daughter is the King's Concubine Wei."

"Wei Yong is not a son of a human being. Lady Wei has severed the father-daughter relationship with him. Lady Wei is from a simple family, and her father is also a Wei citizen. Naturally, they are on the same side and represent the Wei scholars in the court of the Great Qin."

"Lady Wei is well-educated and gentle. Although she is not the most favored, she is also quite popular. After you enter the palace, you can get closer to her. The king has many beauties in his harem. It is better to help each other than to fight alone."

Zi Nu nodded: "My daughter understands. I will definitely listen to my father's teachings and interact more with Lady Wei."

Wei Liao nodded in satisfaction: "Father knows that you have always been smart and have paid attention to the affairs of the Qin court and the public, but after all, you have little contact with the king, and you don't know about the affairs of the harem. There are some things that father still needs to explain to you."
