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

Chapter 98 Ambitious and Looking to Start Over [First update, please collect and read]

The young son in his arms was still sleeping peacefully, with a gentle look in Chen Shen's eyes.

The sound of wind and snow outside is booming.

There was a sound of footsteps, and then a young man came in with a respectful look on his face: "Master, sir, I'm looking for you."

Father?

Chen Shen had a curious look on his face. What could his father call him for at this time?
  He immediately nodded slightly to the boy and walked towards Chen Ye's study.

At this time, heavy snow was flying outside the house, and goose-feather-like snowflakes fell on Chen Shen's shoulders and body. He did not stop, even though the wind and snow seemed to be getting bigger and bigger.

Chen Shen just sighed slightly as he walked in the wind and snow.

His younger brother did not listen to his family's advice and insisted on stationing on the border of Qin to guard Qin in this weather and year.

Even if no country in Qin today would offend, it would be the same.

He couldn't help but look at the sky, and saw white dots falling from the sky.

"I don't know how Brother Zhan is doing."

"Was there ever any danger?"

Chen Shen murmured quietly, thinking that maybe Chen Zhan would come back in January?

After all, it was the most important day in Qin.

Every January, both nobles and kings would offer sacrifices to their ancestors. This can be regarded as an alternative "year" in this era.

Chen Shen, who was thinking, quickly walked to Chen Ye's study.

As soon as he entered the door, Chen Shen felt the temperature inside the room, so he took off his cloak and handed it to the maid beside him.

He looked at his father, this old man, with some worry.

Judging from the temperature in the room, we can also feel some of Chen Ye's physical condition.

The temperature inside the room is too high——

This means that Chen Ye is now very afraid of the cold, but this should not be done because the temperature outside will not be this cold.

"Father."

Before Chen Shen could finish speaking, Chen Ye raised his hand to tell him to stop talking.

"Don't worry about me."

Chen Ye's voice was still calm, because he knew that his death could not mean anything, nor could it end anything.

After his death, he will most likely fall asleep in the soul space and be able to see everything outside.

This is equivalent to no death.

Therefore, he is not afraid of death like other people, but has an indifferent attitude.

Perhaps because of this attitude, his health is now much better than that of his peers.

Chen Ye took off the piece of "Qilin Jade" from his waist. The word "Chen" was engraved on the Qilin Jade.

This is the surname that was extorted by the system for a hundred luck points before the system left it on this unicorn jade. This is the "head of the family jade pendant" that symbolizes the inheritance of the Chen family, or a kind of token.

Of course, in this era, there may not yet be such a term as a family head.

After handing the Qilin Jade to Chen Shen, Chen Ye coughed a few times. In fact, what he should do in this state is to continue holding the Qilin Jade, because the Qilin Jade may allow him to live for another year or two.

But Chen Ye was unwilling.

The extra time is not of much use. It is better to give this jade pendant to Chen Shen earlier, and it may also play some role in the inheritance of the Chen family.

"Ahem." He coughed lightly and said breathlessly: "This is the jade pendant inherited from the Chen family, called Qilin Jade."

Chen Ye's expression was solemn. He looked at Chen Ye and said: "I can feel that I don't have much time left, so I will give you this jade pendant before I die, and also tell you the magic of this jade pendant." .”

"Lest this thing lose its inheritance in my hands and be sold by unscrupulous descendants in the future."

Chen Shen's expression was slightly solemn. He looked at the jade pendant in his hand that seemed to be glowing slightly, with a nervous expression on his face: "Father, your body and bones are fine. Why do you say that?"

"Not as good."

He was afraid for some reason, afraid of his father's death.

Chen Ye waved his hand and said forcefully: "You don't need to say so much, just listen to what I say."

His voice was slightly tired, but he persisted in telling Chen Ye, who was sitting in front of him, word by word about the various functions of Kirin Jade. After finishing all the information, Chen Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

It would be a great loss if the secret of this jade pendant could not be revealed in the end.

He finally breathed a sigh of relief, and then said: "This jade pendant is a token passed down by the Chen family's past family heads. The past family heads will never leave it unless they feel that their end is approaching."

Chen Ye looked at Chen Shen with a serious expression: "Do you understand?"

Chen Shen held the jade pendant in his hand tightly, but the corners of his eyes were red for some reason: "My son knows."

Chen Ye smiled and then said, "Okay, why be so sentimental?"

"Birth, old age, illness and death are normal. Your mother passed away last year. I was a little older than her, but she died a few years later."

"Now my body can no longer support my large movements. This winter, I will report my illness to the king with me."

Chen Ye was not sure whether he could survive this winter, but he thought he could take this opportunity to find time to fish.

In the decades since he came to Da Qin, he has never had any time to rest.

From that moment on, he has worked conscientiously for thirty or forty years for the inheritance of the Chen family and for his own survival. He has had enough of this kind of life!
  Seeing Chen Ye's cheerful smile, Chen Shen lowered his head to hide his inner emotions.

"My son knows."

Chen Ye waved his hand: "Okay, let's go."

"Stop bothering me here, I feel upset when I see you."

"Just do whatever you have to do."

Chen Shen stood up and saluted slightly, with a complicated look on his face.

After Chen Shen left, Chen Ye yawned slightly, then sat on the bed behind him, half-squinting his eyes and falling asleep.

Wei State, Daliang

The King of Wei stood on the high platform. After more than ten years of game, he finally won again.

The power of the court was once again in his hands.

He looked at the many courtiers standing in the audience and couldn't help but sigh: "I was so ambitious, but now I am starting from the beginning."

邦周
  Ji Ding was sitting on his own throne with a slightly gloomy look on his face. At a young age, he could not accept this huge gap and the reality that Bangzhou had no rights now.

Young people always have their own extravagant hopes. He wants to make Bangzhou regain his vitality in his hands.

This year is the second year of King Huiwen of Qin's reign and the first year of King Shenliang of Zhou.

Qin State, Xianyang City, Xianyang Palace

With the sound of a cry, Ying Si and Mi Bazi's son, Ying Ji, was born in this palace.

Perhaps, this is the final end of this era.
