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

Chapter 9 At this moment [[-]st update, please collect and read]

"If you are famous like this, what does it have to do with me?"

Chen Ye looked calm, as if he didn't feel the commotion outside at all.

"The boy's heart has never changed, and what he wants in life has never changed. The teacher's new law is gradually implemented, and the situation in the country is becoming like a raging fire."

"The old aristocrats, new aristocrats, people, and even the king will all undergo corresponding changes with the reform."

"And the boy just wants to survive in troubled times and let my lineage pass on."

He looked at Shang Yang and said, "Your Majesty appointed me as Sikou because you don't want judicial matters to fall into the hands of others and affect the teacher's reform."

"And I just want to sit in this position, where the teacher can rest assured."

Shang Yang lowered his head, playing with small stones in his hand, and felt relieved. This was indeed a good thing for him.

After all, in recent days, many old nobles are moving towards the position of Sikou, and the monarch is also under a lot of pressure. Now that his disciple has become Sikou, what if the disciple's ambition is slightly different from his own?

At least it won't be your own enemy.

At least he won't be his enemy at this time.

Chen Ye turned his head and looked at the noisy long street outside the courtyard, thinking about how to further participate in Shang Yang's reform.

The extent of his involvement in Shang Yang's reform will certainly affect the extent of his family's subsequent establishment.

He is now taking advantage of the fire.

He wanted to take out the chestnut, but also to prevent the rising and hot flames from scalding his hands.

Sikou Mansion

Chen Ye sat in the courtyard, carefully counting the rewards he received after meeting Qin Xiaogong.

The first is to activate the achievement [Heard in the Lords [-]], which still gives you two hundred luck points and a D-level prop [Autumn Rain], which can make an autumn rain fall at any time and at any place.

Chen Ye looked at this descriptor and wondered why the copy specifically emphasized the word Qiu Yu.

Only then did he react.

With an autumn rain and a cold, this prop under Ding may be more important than he thought, because it may be able to adjust the local temperature while it rains.

This may not seem like an important function, but if used in the right place, it can achieve great results.

The second is to activate the third brand-new achievement so far [Shilu]. This achievement was activated after Chen Ye was worshiped by Qin Xiaogong. It provided Chen Ye with one hundred luck points. This achievement was not provided to Chen Ye. Any prop rewards.

This also made Chen Ye realize that perhaps the [achievement] that rewards props must be an achievement with a luck value of more than [-].

After pressing his forehead a little, Chen Ye carefully planned the establishment of his family.

According to Chen Ye's current status, it is not difficult to marry a wife and establish a [family], but establishing a [clan] is slightly more difficult, and requires at least two generations of heirs to pass on.

In other words, he must have at least one wife and one concubine, so that he can have the distinction between a legitimate son and a concubine.

And once there is a distinction between direct concubine and concubine, it can also be called a family.

These all take time.

Chen Ye slowly raised his head, looked at the clear moonlight in the sky and sighed again.

If you want to gain enough power, you must show enough strength and determination. Every step in the quagmire is extremely difficult.

Now that you have taken on the position of Sikou, you must make good use of it.

Don't ask for more, at least in Qin Xiaogong's reign, you can be a lord, right?

With the foundation of becoming a king, the next generation of heirs can continue to develop. Chen Ye restrained his thoughts and decided to set a small goal for himself.

Within three generations, the title will reach [Gong].    This does not seem to be too difficult.

In prison
  Mr. Lin is still in prison because he violated the new law, so few people will intercede for him at this time. No one wants to be labeled as someone who despises the new law.

He sat in prison, raised his head faintly and looked at the sky.

Mr. Lin knew very well that he was pushed out as a pawn to test Shang Yang, and now that his task had been completed, few people in the family would notice him.

I just don’t know when I will be released from prison?

Or
  Can he still be released from prison?
  Mr. Lin sighed again, feeling that his future was really unclear.

His fists were clenched tightly in his sleeves, and his face was full of helplessness. Isn't this what family matters are like?

In the past ten years, they had enjoyed the convenience and power provided by the family, and they needed to step forward when the family needed it.

Outside the cell, several jailors were talking in low voices.

"I heard that Sikou has been replaced?"

"What does it have to do with us people?"

"Hey, you don't know. I heard that this man is a disciple of Shang Gong! It seems that your Majesty will reuse him, and he was recommended by Shang Gong."

"Tell me, if such a person serves as a commander, what will happen to him in prison?"

In an instant, all the jailers looked at Mr. Lin who was sitting in the cell, and Mr. Lin's expression flickered between bright and dark.

A disciple of Shang Yang?
  Could it be the young man who was following Shang Yang?

He was even more confused for a moment. What was his future?
  Zuosu Changfu
  Shang Yang looked at the bamboo slip in his hand under the oil lamp. The shadow of the lamp falling on the bamboo slip looked very confusing. Mrs. Shang on the side was a little helpless. She took Shang Yang's hand off and then said: "What are you worried about? ?”

"Today, the implementation of the new law has not encountered any irresistible obstacles, and your Majesty has been supporting you."

"Why bother yourself so much."

Shang Yang said somewhat silently: "With the support of your Majesty, no one can stop the reform."

"I'm just worried."

"I'm worried that the boy was seduced and went astray."

He turned his head and looked at the flickering oil lamp in the distance. The oil flowers in the lamp exploded with crackling, and a little bit of green smoke was rising around him.

"Although I haven't been his teacher for long, I still don't want to be his enemy."

Shang Yang stroked the bamboo scroll on the table and whispered, "I hope this won't happen one day."

Qin Palace

Qin Xiaogong put down the message written by the emissary in his hand, and the light on his face flickered.

In his opinion, Chen Ye was naturally a first-class talent. If he used it well, he might be able to maintain the reputation of the Qin Dynasty for three generations. However, Qin Xiaogong still preferred Shang Yang to Chen Ye.

He put Chen Ye in Sikou's position, also wanting to test Chen Ye.

Let’s see how Chen Ye would choose between Temptation and Shang Yang.

He hoped that Chen Ye would choose the latter.

Morning, morning meeting.

Chen Ye stood in the crowd, his expression unchanged at all, as if he didn't feel the gazes around him.

He was waiting for the court meeting to begin.
