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

Chapter 72: Being too old to die is the age to be a thief [[-]st update, please collect and read]

Chen Shen turned around and looked at his naughty younger brother quite helplessly.

"come in."

He looked at Chen Zhan and said, "What's wrong? Aren't you the most afraid of coming to my study in the past? Why do you have time to come today?"

Chen Zhan chuckled: "Father is calling you. It seems that he and Master have something to do with you?"

Father? Master?
  Chen Shen was startled for a moment, then silently counted the time in his heart, and then he suddenly understood.

Last year, his father once said that he would be given one year to learn these things, or that he would not study, but read and recite them, and then he would choose his first teacher. Could it be that the first teacher is his master? What?

Chen Shen couldn't help but smile in his heart.

For him, this was a very good teacher. In fact, he didn't really want his first teacher to be someone from outside Qin, especially the world-famous Confucian Mencius.

Chen Shen did not agree with or support many of Mencius' political views.

But if the first teacher was Mencius, he would be more or less influenced by that teacher, which would probably be detrimental to his future.

But Shang Yang was different.

The master has taught his father, so he naturally knows how to teach himself in the most correct way, and the relationship between them is so close, the master will never harm him and will teach him wholeheartedly.

Chen Shen stood up immediately, with a look of surprise in his eyes: "Okay!"

"I'm going right now!"

As he spoke, he hurriedly walked out of the house, not even paying attention to the heavy snow outside.

Chen Zhan looked at Chen Shen, who was walking in a hurry, and was a little dumbfounded for a moment: "Brother, why are you in such a hurry and eagerness today? He has completely lost his previous demeanor!"

He scratched his head and said, "Does my father and master really have something important to do to find my eldest brother?"

Chen Zhan's eyebrows changed and he followed quietly.

In the courtyard

At this time, Shang Yang, who was already seventy years old, was sitting in the snow with white hair and a peaceful look on his face. The high-spirited Shang Jun who made reforms back then has now become this old man.

Seeing Chen Shen running over, Shang Yang showed a rare smile.

Once people get older, they like to deal with children, because they are full of vitality and vitality, as if they have seen themselves in the past.

This is a huge temptation for the elderly.

When arriving in front of Shang Yang, Chen Shen slowed down, adjusted his breathing, and then walked up to Shang Yang and Chen Ye, who was smiling: "Shen'er has met his master and his father."

Shang Yang couldn't help but sigh: "Shen'er has become an adult who understands etiquette."

He glanced at Chen Ye and said rather rudely: "How about it? Do you think Shen'er has passed the test of that year and is ready to learn from you?"

Chen Ye touched his nose.

Ever since he started letting Shang Yang be the first teacher of his sons last year, his teacher has always disliked him.

Chen Ye originally invited Shang Yang to scare those shitty kids, but he obviously forgot about the cross-generational kiss, so in the end he was forced to stand up and become the bad guy. Naturally, this "bad guy" was often ignored by those kids. The child complained.

The serious Shang Jun in the past has turned into an old man who favors children unreasonably.

Under the threat of Shang Yang's gaze, Chen Ye couldn't help but apologize: "Teacher, you have the final say, you have the final say, how can I decide?"

Chen Shen, on the other hand, was very serious. He looked at Shang Yang and bowed slightly: "Master, my father should be strict with my brother and me. Shen'er and all the brothers and sisters all understand the principle that jade cannot be polished until it becomes a useful tool." Shen'er is strict, which is what Shen'er requires, so please master, please don't blame father."

Shang Yang touched Chen Shen's hair, with kindness and kindness on his face. He said like the most ordinary old man: "Okay, okay, listen to Shen'er."

Then he looked at Chen Ye angrily and said, "What? You still haven't told Shen'er about your results?"

Chen Ye coughed slightly and looked a little serious: "Father has seen everything you have done this year."

The seriousness in his voice slowly dissipated under Chen Shen's nervous gaze, and then he said: "I am very satisfied with my father. From today on, you will learn from my master."

There was some unconcealable depression in Chen Ye's voice. This depression was felt by the thoughtful Chen Shen in an instant, but Chen Shen wisely did not ask now.

He immediately saluted: "Thank you father, thank you master."

Snowflakes are still falling, and several plum blossoms in the courtyard are slowly blooming.

Chen Shen sat in front of Chen Ye and asked in a low voice: "Father, why are you here today when Master is here?"

Chen Ye raised his head and looked at the plum blossoms falling in the distance. His tone was a little low: "Your master's body is probably only a matter of the past two years."

This is a fact.

Since the death of Qin Xiaogong, Shang Yang seems to have lost his soul.

He has been suffering for the past three years.

After Ying Si was crowned as pro-government last year, Shang Yang stayed behind closed doors many times and even wrote a letter to resign. If Chen Ye and Ying Si had not chased him to his home to stop him, he would have resigned and returned to his hometown. .

Although Shangdi is not bitterly cold, it is still too barren compared to Xianyang.

Seeing that it has only been a few years, both Chen Ye and Ying Si want Shang Yang to die here.

When Chen Shen heard this, a look of depression suddenly flashed across his face.

At this age, he has already understood the huge emotions contained in separation between life and death, and he can naturally understand the bitterness in his father's heart.

Chen Shen raised his head, looked at Chen Ye and said, "Shen'er will accompany the master well!"

Winter comes and spring comes, everything recovers.

Chen Shen sat in his study, shaking his head and reciting the contents of Shang Jun's book, absorbing all Shang Yang's knowledge from the bottom of his heart.

Shang Yang looked lovingly at the child who inherited his legacy.

In the spring of the fourth year of King Huiwen.

The war between Wei, Zhao and Han that lasted for a year was still going on, and the monarchs of the three countries did not want to give up.

Zhao Chenghou was obviously angry with King Wei this time, and almost mobilized the entire country's troops to resist Wei's attack. In order not to follow in Zhao's footsteps, Han also tried his best to help Zhao.

Qi State
  King Qi Wei looked at Sun Bin below and smiled slightly: "Mr. Sun is now willing to accept my official position and go to send troops to attack Wei?"

A few days ago, Zhao and Han asked Qi for help, and Qi obviously wanted a share of this war!

Sun Bin responded silently: "My lord, I am willing!"

In the fifth year of King Huiwen's reign, it was still a winter.

Shang Yang was lying on the bed. Ying Si, Chen Ye, Chen Shen, Chen Zhan, Zhang Yi, Su Qin and others came to his bed.
