Daily Life In Qin Dynasty

"My sister is so lucky!"

In the room where Yao Meiren was resting, Mrs. Zheng, who had just arrived, picked up a baby and played with it for a while, then looked at Yao Meiren who was lying on the bed. Although she had just given birth not long ago, she looked quite good.

"My elder sister is the lucky one, my younger sister is just lucky."

Meiren Yao looked at the Sixth Princess who was being held by Mrs. Zheng, and said with a smile.

"That sister's luck is really enviable to others."

Mrs. Zheng continued to speak while teasing the baby in her arms. After a while, the baby smiled at Mrs. Zheng. Seeing this, Mrs. Zheng couldn't help but laugh.

Meiren Yao looked at the scene in front of her with a smile, and the atmosphere in the whole room seemed extremely harmonious.

If anyone sees this scene, they will definitely think that Mrs. Zheng and Meiren Yao have a very good relationship, and the two of them even look like a family at this time.

However, the reality is that it was not clear whether the relationship between the two was good or not before, but from today on, the relationship between the two will definitely be very close.

the reason is simple.

Because Yao Meiren is about to become the mother-in-law of the wife of her son's teacher.

With this kind of relationship, the relationship between Mrs. Zheng and Yao Meiren will inevitably become closer in the future.

certainly.

More importantly, Meiren Yao gave birth to a daughter this time.

While Mrs. Zheng was talking with Meiren Yao, some guests arrived one after another at Meiren Yao's house, but they did not attract much attention from the two of them.

Until a certain moment.

A shout with a significantly higher pitch sounded, instantly silenced the atmosphere in the entire mansion.

"Shenghei-kun has arrived."

Hearing the sound coming from outside the door, Mrs. Zheng in the room paused for a moment, then looked at Yao Meiren and said teasingly: "Your golden turtle son-in-law is here."

In response, Yao Meiren responded with a smile, but did not deny it.

In front of the main entrance.

When the servant outside the door announced Mr. Mo's name, Manager Qian ran out at almost a sprint speed of 100 meters. As the butler of Yao Meiren's house, Manager Qian certainly knew who the real person was at today's banquet. 'protagonist'.

"Slave, please see Lord Shengping."

Manager Qian had a humble attitude and bowed with a flattering smile on his face.

"Manager Qian is polite."

Mo Jun nodded gently, and then motioned to Heiyu behind him to take out the gift.

And just as Manager Qian reached out to take the gift, before he could say anything, he saw a figure walking out of the house in a hurry.

"I'm going to pay my respects to Lord Mo."

"Master Yao, how come you... are you not Beauty Yao?"

Seeing the visitor, Mo Jun was startled for a moment, then seemed to remember something and couldn't help but ask.

"She is the sister of the lower official."

"I see. If you have time in the future, if you can come to Hanzhong as a guest, I will sweep your bed to welcome you."

"Jun Shengping invites you, and I will definitely attend the appointment."

Hearing this, the visitor spoke slightly excitedly.

The person who appeared in front of Mr. Mo at this time was named "Yao Jia". He was a guest of official worship and one of the nine ministers.

Yao Jia, like Li Si, was one of the people who had attached themselves to Ying Zheng when the Ying regime was still weak. Therefore, when Ying Zheng came to power, he immediately promoted Yao Jia to a county guard.

And after his local experience was completed, he was directly transferred back to Xianyang by Ying Zheng. After Li Si was promoted to Tingwei, he took over the position of 'Dianke' and became one of the Nine Qings.

However, although they are both Jiuqing, Yao Jia's situation is not as comfortable as Li Si's.

Although Li Si came from a bad background, he once worked under Lu Buwei. Therefore, when Ying Zheng carried out a general purge after Lu Buwei's fall, Li Si took the opportunity to gather many of Lu Buwei's old forces and directly established a foothold in the court.

But Yao Jia was not as lucky as Li Si.

Yao Jia was born in the Kingdom of Wei and was a "son of a prisoner". His father was a prisoner who guarded the city gate. It can be said that he had no backing at all.

Yao Jia once served as an official in the State of Zhao. When Mo Jun was still serving in Nanjun, the State of Zhao once wanted to unite Chu, Han, and Wei to attack Qin, and the envoy sent by the State of Zhao was Yao Jia.

But Yao Jia failed in the end, because during his mission, Ying Zheng sent people to win over him, so Yao Jia chose to submit to Qin, and the Four Kingdoms Alliance was shattered.

Judging from this experience alone, Yao Jia is undoubtedly a treacherous 'villain'.

In fact, this is indeed the case.

In official history.

When Han Fei was originally on a mission to Qin, he angrily scolded Yao Jia as "a disciple of the Shijian, a thief of Liang, and an outcast of Zhao". Naturally, he was resented by Yao Jia.

So afterwards Yao Jia teamed up with Li Si to slander him in front of Ying Zheng, which led to Ying Zheng ordering Han Fei to be imprisoned. Afterwards, Li Si sent poison to Han Fei, causing Han Fei to commit suicide.

However, this part of the record is unclear to Mr. Mo, because he only has memories of the plot of 'Qin Shi', and does not know much about the Qin Kingdom in official history.

What's more, both the official history and the plot have already been changed by Mo Jun.

In the original plot.

Now Yao Jia was supposed to be on his way to the four countries of Chu, Yan, Zhao, and Yue. According to the normal historical trajectory, Qin could not fight against Zhao and Wei at the same time. Therefore, during the war with Wei, in order to prevent the other four countries from Taking the opportunity to make a sneak attack, he sent Yao Jia to circulate among the four countries.

In the official history, Yao Jia finally completed his mission successfully. After returning to his country, he was promoted to minister due to his great achievements and prospered.

But now, as Qin's national power becomes more and more powerful, it can almost push the six countries with the power of one country. In this case, even if Yao Jia does the same thing according to the official history, the credit he gets will be greatly weakened.

That's why.

Although Yao Jia is now a 'dianke', his power is not very great.

But in a sense, perhaps it was because Yao Jia did not have much real power in his hands that Ying Zheng betrothed the princess born to his sister to Lord Mo.

After all, if you think about it carefully, you will find it.

The baby girl born to Meiren Yao is the sixth princess. Although most of the first five princesses have been betrothed to others by Ying Zheng, one princess is still not married.

However, Ying Zheng did not betroth the princess to Mr. Mo. Instead, he ordered that among the next pregnant Hu Meiren and Yao Meiren, whoever gives birth to a daughter first can marry Mr. Mo.

Why would Ying Zheng do such a seemingly unnecessary act?

The reason is because the mother of the princess who is still not betrothed is from the Meng clan.

If the princess were to marry Lord Mo, it would be almost equivalent to marrying the civil and military leader of the Qin State. Unless Ying Zheng was crazy, he would do such a thing.

compare to.

Neither Hu Meiren nor Yao Meiren, who are pregnant this time, have strong backgrounds or backers, so no matter which one of them marries Mo Jun, it is within the scope of Ying Zheng's acceptance.
