Game World: Am I a toy of the system?

Just when Bai Meng and Yan Huan were playing in the palace.

Emperor Jie summoned six people to discuss state affairs, the most important of which was to conquer the disobedient and kill the chicken to scare the monkey.

The original country of Shi has now offered Princess Yan Huan, and with the second prince Meng as guarantor, they have to choose a new one.

Although Jie was cruel and lustful, he was quite talented in state affairs and was even more outstanding than his father Si Fa.

He also had his most trusted brother who was always there to give him advice, and he was much wiser than in history.

It is not easy to determine the next target of attack.

Moreover, there have been recent rumors that another big country, Xuanzeng, also has rebellious intentions, so they have become even more cautious.

After finishing talking about state affairs, Jie sat lazily on the high seat and said to Qiu Ren: "Meng wants craftsmen to make stone tools, you go and arrange it."

Qiuren was the king's close minister, mainly responsible for issuing royal orders and announcing government decrees. He also had the responsibility of soliciting opinions and reporting the situation from the bottom to the king.

Hearing this, Qiu Ren immediately accepted the order: "Yes!"

Now, when we summon all the ministers to discuss state affairs, there are no complicated rules like in later generations. It is much simpler and more direct.

After finishing their talk, the six people left without even saying goodbye.

Jie did the same. He got up and went back to the palace, selected a new group of beauties, and continued to eat, drink and have fun.

Qiuren also has the surname Si. In terms of seniority, he is the uncle of Jie and Meng.

After the meeting, he immediately went to the palace to look for Bai Meng.

The autumn at this time is the hottest month of the year, which is June in the modern lunar calendar, when the days are longest.

After dinner, Bai Meng took Yan Huan out for a walk, under the pretext of helping with digestion, but in fact he was just showing off his wife's beauty.

The two have been married for two years and even have a child, who is usually taken care of by the old woman.

When thinking about this, Bai Meng felt it was quite mysterious and wanted to go and take a look.

Although Yan Huan didn't like the child, he was her own flesh and blood after all. She used to visit him regularly and feed him breast milk, but now that he is one year old, she doesn't visit him often.

There is a special place in the palace for taking care of children. The older ones are already seven or eight years old, and the younger ones are still in their infancy.

When Bai Meng saw her child in a big house, the mysterious feeling became stronger and stronger.

He now knows that Meng should have died at birth, but he is still alive today because of his autoimmune disease.

Although this child was born to Meng and Yan Huan, he was born because of Bai Meng, so it can be said that he is also Bai Meng's!

This is a very special and amazing experience!

In the old woman's arms, the child opened his big black eyes and looked at Yan Huan, then at Bai Meng.

He seemed to recognize the person, and a smile suddenly broke out on his little face. He opened his little arms towards Bai Meng and giggled.

A strange tingling sensation went straight from Bai Meng's feet to his head.

A bond derived from blood and life connects them.

In addition, Bai Meng has a unique feeling that comes from the soul.

This child's flesh and blood come from Meng and Yan Huan, but his soul comes from Bai Meng!

This is a deep and inseparable feeling that transcends words and distance.

Bai Meng took the child from the old woman's arms with a smile on her face, and called out, "Jun."

Watching Bai Meng playing with the children, Yan Huan's heart seemed to have suffered a severe blow, and her beautiful face suddenly turned pale.

Does he like children so much?

The old woman smiled ingratiatingly and said, "The child's name is Yun. The king gave it to him."

"Jun, I named him that." Bai Meng teased her son in her arms and said without raising her head.

The old woman was so frightened that her body trembled and she dared not speak any more.

Yan Huan took a deep breath, took lotus steps forward, stood beside Bai Meng, and asked, "Meng, what does Jun mean?"

"A man of extraordinary intelligence."

Bai Meng didn't think much about it and answered directly, then recited: "Ten people are heroes, a hundred people are outstanding, a thousand people are talented, and ten thousand people are heroes!"

Yan Huan looked at the child and repeated these words over and over again in his heart.

Every time he silently recited it, the hands holding the cloth would tighten a little.

Finally, with a ripping sound, the cloth that could not bear the weight was torn apart by her.

Bai Meng looked at Yan Huan, whose face turned slightly pale, in astonishment, and asked with concern: "Huan, what's wrong with you?"

Yan Huan lowered his head quickly: "Maybe I have some indigestion after eating, it's okay, just take a rest for a while."

At this time, a voice came from outside: "Meng Ke is here?"

Recognizing a familiar voice, Bai Meng handed the child to the old woman, told Yan Huan to rest, and said he would be back soon, then went out.

As soon as Bai Meng left, Yan Huan's face turned even paler, and even his steps staggered a few times.

The old woman holding the child said quickly, "Princess, please sit down and rest. I will ask someone to bring some hot water."

"No! Don't bother me!"

Yan Huan waved his hand, turned around and walked to the wooden table and sat down, then frowned and thought quietly.

The old woman looked at the child in her arms and said in a worried voice, "The Second King has too high expectations for his child."

"A hundred men are outstanding, a thousand men are handsome!"

"In this capital, only the Second King dares to speak up."

Snapped!

Yan Huan slammed the table fiercely, glared at the old woman with almond-shaped eyes, and shouted: "Shut up!"

This time the old woman was not frightened. She looked directly at Yan Huan with her cloudy old eyes and said softly, "Princess, don't forget your mission!"

A murderous look flashed across Yan Huan's eyes, but he eventually lowered his head and murmured, "I know."

The old woman gave an ugly smile and stopped talking, concentrating on coaxing the child in her arms.

These are the thousand men who have high hopes placed on them by the second king of the Great Qiu Kingdom. They must be taken good care of!

Outdoors at this time.

Bai Meng had already learned that Qiu Ren came here on Jie's orders, and the task of mobilizing craftsmen to make stone tools had been given to him.

"How long does it take to build a stone box?"

Qiuren shook his head: "You'd better ask the stonemason. I'm not sure."

"Is that so?" Bai Meng looked at the sky, it was probably around 6 o'clock in the evening, and asked, "Is the stonemason's residence far away?"

"It's not far, but do we need to call them over?" Qiu Ren asked.

How much time will be wasted going back and forth?

Bai Meng shook his head: "I'll go there myself."

Afterwards, Bai Meng went back to the room, said something to Yan Huan, and then hurriedly followed Qiu Ren away.

Stonemasonry is a very important profession in this era.

The place where they lived was relatively safe and clean, and not far from the palace.

When Bai Meng and Qiu Ren came over, they had already eaten dinner and were sitting in front of the house chatting.

Some stonemasons were holding a small piece of stone in their hands and were slowly polishing it. Judging from the shape, it should be a stone knife.

In this era, except for slaves captured in battle, even if the common people met the king, they would at most respectfully address him as "Great King".

Some people have a bad temper and will point at Wang and curse him when he does something bad.

Therefore, gaining the love of the people is a very important thing for a king.

This is also the main reason why Di Jie was written as cruel in history books. He did not treat the people well.

When the stonemasons learned that the visitor was Bai Meng, they all behaved very respectfully. Some even whispered that he should be the king.

Bai Meng could only pretend not to hear and asked with a smile: "If we hollow out a large stone and make a stone box, how long would it take?"

The stonemasons whispered to each other for a while, and finally an old man who looked to be about 50 or 60 years old replied, "How big is the stone box?"

Bai Meng gestured and said that it was about one meter square and half a meter high, and asked, "How long will it take?"

Hiss, there was a sound of people inhaling.

The old stonemason looked embarrassed: "If we start making such a large stone box now, it will take at least until Changyue to be completed."

“And it’s too heavy to be practical.”

Changyue is the eleventh month of the lunar calendar, and it is only June now, which means it will take at least 5 months to make one!

But Bai Meng only has 10 days, so this plan is not feasible.
