    When I got home, my wife Pei Shuning was in confinement.  In April this year, Pei Shuning gave birth to her fourth child with Huang Mingyuan, another boy. Huang Mingyuan's dream of a little cotton-padded jacket came to nothing again.

    Of course, this time Huang Mingyuan finally had the opportunity to name his son, because Yang Guang was busy with the reform of the official system.

    Huang Mingyuan's youngest son is called Wei Qing, and his name is taken from "Weiqing Jixi, the canon of King Wen" in "The Book of Songs¡¤Zhou Song¡¤Weiqing". His nickname is Qinggeng, which is the Xiang who resists the plague in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas"  bird.

    ¡°These days, there are many rules for women during confinement. Huang Mingyuan could not see his wife, so he separated a large screen in the house, and he himself sat behind the screen every day to accompany his wife and son for some time.

    Huang Mingyuan leaned against the screen, and a servant had already taken out his little son.  Huang Mingyuan looked at his son in the cradle and said, "I originally thought that this kid would be awarded the title of Third Division of Yitong as soon as he was born, but now it seems that it has been ruined."

    Pei Shuning leaned on the couch and listened to her husband's words and said: "We are not the same as the Third Division of Yitong. Just the four boys in our family are a general, a county prince, and a founding uncle. You are here to kill them with one sword and one shot."  What we fought outside the Great Wall is gone now. Our family has only risen in the past few years, and we have only managed to earn a dozen or so people with titles to join the big family, and now they are all gone."

    No wonder Pei Shuning complained. These days, family status is distributed like a pyramid, one level at a time. How can the families at the bottom move up to the top?  It doesn¡¯t just depend on things like official position, title, and land.  These people have been working hard from generation to generation. If there is a slight mistake, their families will be ruined. Now the accumulation of many years is completely over.

    Not all families have a god of war named Huang Mingyuan.

    By taking back their titles and honors, those big families can still rely on the lintel of their previous ancestors to continue to be prominent.  But those middle and lower families who are rising rapidly have undoubtedly suffered a heavy blow, almost interrupting their upward path.

    In fact, with the title taken back this time, the Zoushan Huang family's original plan to become one of the upper-class families in Guandong has also come to a halt.  If it weren't for Huang Mingyuan's support, the family would have no hope for the future.

    ¡°It¡¯s not just our family, it¡¯s the same.¡±

    Huang Mingyuan was also helpless, but he couldn't complain to anyone. Instead, he said to his wife: "There will always be a way. The family has restrained it and no one is allowed to talk about it."

    Pei Shuning nodded and said: "I have already given the order, but I am worried that someone will gossip and cause trouble. But in this matter, the court really did it like this, and there is no room for negotiation. This is thousands of titles, casual officials  , honorary title, involves the entire Sui family, the emperor is not afraid of jealousy and chaos among his subordinates."

    Huang Mingyuan glanced at his wife and said: "You all understand the truth, but the saint can't understand it. He believes that even if someone is jealous and causes chaos, he will not be threatened."

    Pei Shuning was still in confinement at this time. Huang Mingyuan chatted with his wife for a while and then left his wife's room.

    Huang Mingyuan thought about discussing the matter with Chen Yuan, so he went to Chen Yuan's yard.  When I walked to the pavilion in the garden, I didn't expect that Chen Yuan was drinking alone at this time.

    Huang Mingyuan was a little surprised. In the past, Chen Yuan didn't drink, let alone come to the back garden.  Seeing Huang Mingyuan, Chen Yuan looked normal and immediately invited Huang Mingyuan to drink with him.

    Huang Mingyuan asked: "What's so happy about Mr. Zhong today that he's so happy?"

    "Today the emperor dethrones the prince, how can I not be happy?"

    Huang Mingyuan knew what Chen Yuan was thinking, so it was hard to reprimand him.  It's just annoying to see him gloating about his misfortune, fearing that the world would not be in chaos.

    Chen Yuan didn't care about Huang Mingyuan's somewhat ugly expression and said to himself: "Lord, let me say that our emperor will make mistakes. When he reaches the top, he will fall off the cliff. Our emperor has never suffered setbacks since he was a child.  He is also not lacking in ability and skills, and he has always been complacent, thinking that the world is in his hands and can be rubbed by him. But he does not know that the affairs of this world are not only about rights, but also about people's hearts. He is aloof, and these civil and military officials  Hundreds of officials and aristocratic families have supported him as the emperor. Everyone is indeed a chess piece in front of the emperor, but chess pieces also have dignity. This time the emperor tore everyone's face to pieces and stepped into the mud with his feet. Do you think the world's people  What would you think?"

    Huang Mingyuan was silent.

    Seeing that Huang Mingyuan didn't speak, Chen Yuan continued: "My lord is familiar with history. Naturally, he knows why the invincible Qin army in history was defeated by Liu Bang and Xiang Yu's mud-legged troops, right?"

    Before Huang Mingyuan could answer, Chen Yuan said to himself: "It's the collapse of the Qin Dynasty's system of receiving land for military merit. The old Qin people have been accustomed to using military merit to obtain land and wealth for more than a hundred years  But after the reunification of the six countries, their way forward was blocked.  If a person no longer has a way to make progress, can you expect them to be as willing to die as before?

    It is said that if the First Emperor wants to fulfill the reward for destroying the Six Kingdoms, the land of the Six Kingdoms must be tripled. But can the land of the Six Kingdoms be tripled?  No, so the First Emperor did not complete the reward.  By the time Liu Bang entered Guanzhong, no one from the old Qin people died serving Qin anymore.  My lord, do you think the Sui Dynasty today has gone too far than the Qin Dynasty back then?  "

    Huang Mingyuan said: "Zhong Chang, everything the emperor has done is to limit the rights of the Guanlong family and the Guandong family and return the rights to the emperor. This is meaningful."

    Chen Yuan said loudly: "But the people of the world are unwilling. For everyone, whatever the emperor does is beneficial, but he cannot be unjust to me. And now the emperor has been unjust to everyone, everyone, someone will  Are you willing? Lord, just look at it, before the emperor finishes all this, this world will be dead!"

    Dead!

    Dead!

    Dead!

    Huang Mingyuan is like thunder. Yes, Yang Guang is too eager for quick success and quick success, and fails to deal with it head-on. How can this country not be destroyed?

    Seeing that Huang Mingyuan remained silent, Chen Yuan said: "Lord, you know better than me whether what our saint did today is right or wrong.

    I admit that he may have had no choice but to do this, but there are all kinds of people in the world who have ideals and work hard for them. In fact, they are only a minority. Most of the rest are just for survival, fame, and profit.  If someone deprives you of your fame and fortune, even if that person is the emperor, he is still an enemy.  When Han Xin commented on Liu Bang and Xiang Yu, he said it clearly, "When King Xiang saw people being respectful and kind, he spoke vomitingly, and when people were sick, he wept and shared food and drink. When he made people meritorious and became knights, he kept seals and endured them."  If you can't give it, this is the so-called benevolence of a woman.  ¡¯ Xiang Yu treats his subordinates like relatives, but what¡¯s the use of that? It¡¯s just because he is reluctant to give rewards, so everyone abandons them like worn-out shoes. My lord, you should remember this.  "

    After Chen Yuan finished speaking, he carried the wine bottle and returned to his yard, leaving only Huang Mingyuan standing there for a long time.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
