Thousand-year-old family: its rise began with Shang Yang’s reforms

Chapter 45 Name [First update, please collect and read]

Qin Xiaogong's words made the chamberlain beside him startled for a moment, but in an instant he lowered his head and said nothing.

What the Lord needs at this time is not an answer to a question, he just needs to express what he is thinking.

Qin Xiaogong looked at the silent chamberlain beside him and sneered.

He stood up and walked slowly outside the hall. He knew what those people wanted to do now, which was just to sow discord between him and Shang Yang.

As long as he is not fooled, no matter how hard those people try, they will all be in vain.

He was just a little worried about Shang Yang, worried that Shang Yang would not be able to bear such pressure. After all, such a vigorous reputation was not a good thing for Shang Yang.

Qin Xiaogong turned his head: "Go and pass on my order to reward Shang Yang with [-] pieces of gold, [-] pieces of cloth, and a bronze dining cauldron."

The look that flashed through his eyes was gloomy. Bronze tripod food has always been used by monarchs and emperors. At this time, Qin Xiaogong rewarded Shang Yang with this thing to show his attitude.

Not only did he not be separated from Shang Yang, but he trusted Shang Yang more and doted on him.

Qin Xiaogong wants those old nobles to know that they can either stand up and fight with him vigorously, or they can hide and wait for the knife above their heads to fall!

But their ending will never change, there is only one.

That is to be buried in the dust of history!
  Qin Xiaogong's hands were tightly held in his sleeves, and his sharp nails almost pinched several marks out of his palms.

He wants to take control of the country.

Instead of like now, several old nobles dared to provoke him so openly, and even dared to make small moves of resistance after he clearly supported Shang Yang's reforms.

This is not a slap in Shang Yang’s face, but a slap in his face!
  Prince Qian's Mansion

Slug, Gongzi Qian, and Jizhong sat together, their eyes intertwined, looking at each other.

Almost all the old nobles in Qin are here.

They gathered together, of course, to find a way to fight against Shang Yang. Before, they had not had such a strong desire to fight against Shang Yang, and they just followed Gongzi Qian and Heijia.

It doesn't matter if you can succeed or not. At worst, you can join Shang Yang and gain a foothold among the new aristocracy.

Anyway, their power is here, can they still live worse than those with mud-legged backgrounds after changing camps?

Few old nobles would feel that their skills were inferior to others. If there was no other way out, they would just want to defend their basic base.

But now, this basic market is going to be broken by Shang Yang.

Jizhong's face was dark. He looked at the young master and said piously: "Sir, are your actions supported by the clan?"

"But what good will this do to the clan?"

"If you didn't get the support of the clan, why would your Majesty dare to take action against the etiquette that has lasted for so long? If the county system is really implemented, then there will really be no time for us to turn around!"

Young Master Qian turned his head, his expression also gloomy: "Your Majesty has never told the clan this."

There was a sneer on the corner of his mouth: "Our Lord puts himself above everyone else. He feels that no one can and no one can restrict him!"

"Isn't the most fundamental reason for the county system just because he wants to concentrate power in his hands, in the hands of the small court?"

In fact, Gongzi Qian also had a fiefdom.

His status in the clan and in the Qin State is not that humble.

It's just that the former Gongzi Qian liked to pretend to be a gentleman who didn't want to fight for anything, but the current Gongzi Qian can't keep pretending, because if he keeps pretending, he will really become [Mr. Qin] in name only.

"Knock, knock, knock—" The sound of knocking on the table echoed in the small room. The young master smiled and said, "Now the king supports Shang Yang. We have no way to do anything to the king, and our status is not suitable for taking action." .”

He squinted his eyes, and his voice sounded a bit sinister: "But what if the citizens in the country are in turmoil?"

"Some people are in turmoil, and some people only know that there is Shang Yang but not that there is a king."

"Under such circumstances, when the Qin State is in turmoil, can your Majesty continue to support it now?"

Young Master Qian turned his head and seemed to see through many obstacles, seeing Qin Xiaogong sitting in the Qin Palace. There was a bit of ridicule in his expression: "Of course I know that brother of mine."

"He seems to be broad-minded, but in fact, as a king, he has the same shortcomings that all kings have."

"Suspicious."

"Now he just didn't see Shang Yang's actions, or Shang Yang's actions didn't make him feel threatened."

"Shang Yang has always abided by his bottom line and did not dare to make any mistakes at this time to make your Majesty suspicious. If Shang Yang can maintain this attitude until the end, he will indeed have a good death and maintain the relationship between monarch and minister with my younger brother. Good story."

"but"

Young Master Qian smiled slightly: "Are we not going to do anything?"

"how can that be possible."

"Everyone, please listen to my idea——"

Sikou Mansion.

Chen Ye was sitting there with a slight smile on his face, looking very elegant.

Opposite him sat Shang Yang.

Shang Yang was also wearing official uniform at this time, with a serious look on his face.

Today, he finally couldn't hide from Chen Ye. Instead, he came to his door because he wanted to discuss the new law with Chen Ye, the Sikou.

If you want to implement the second new law reform, you must make another move on the Qin Law and let the Qin Law cooperate with the new law. This is the easiest way to implement the new law.

Shang Yang frowned slightly: "Why don't you agree with the implementation of counties and the abolition of the well-field system based on the Qin Law?"

"Isn't it good to write this matter in Qin's laws?"

Shang Yang was a little puzzled. He believed that the prince's previous actions had made Qin's laws extremely majestic. At this time, adding part of the new law to Qin's laws would make the people more fearful.

Only with fear can we execute smoothly.

Chen Ye shook his head slightly. He looked at Shang Yang, and he did not agree with Shang Yang's views at all.

In fact, even though Chen Ye keeps talking about ruling the country by law all day long, this "law" has nothing to do with Legalism. Even his and Legalism's ideas are similar, but they are almost as different as heaven. South and Haibei.

Chen Ye sighed and said: "Daliang Zao, the reason why the Qin Law is so majestic is on the one hand because of the prince, and on the other hand because of the majority of the [basic laws] recorded in the Qin Law."

"It is not impossible to include county, minefield and other laws at this time, but what about some specific details?"

He looked at Shang Yang and asked, "We can't let the people guess on their own, right?"

"Wouldn't that mean there would be many more unjust cases?"
