Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Upon seeing this, Emperor Jingwen couldn’t help but wonder: “Didn’t you eat in the East Palace?” The prince wouldn’t treat him harshly in this regard, right?

Without waiting for the maid to make a move, Ye Shuo poured himself a cup of tea: “But the East Palace is a long way from here.”

After all, there is still a certain distance between the East Palace and the Harem. It would take more than half an hour to walk there if you walk slowly, and at least ten minutes if you walk fast. In addition, Ye Shuo usually only eats until he is 70% to 80% full, so he would habitually eat one or two snacks when he comes back.

Of course, it is also possible that his internal strength has entered a period of rapid growth recently. After five years of accumulation, Ye Shuo’s internal strength may have reached a certain level of quantitative change, so the growth rate is much faster than before.

“Father, Mother, please take a quick look at me. Have I grown taller recently?”

Emperor Jingwen was just about to ask how it was possible that he could digest everything after walking such a short distance, but then he heard this.

Emperor Jingwen spoke almost at the same time as Concubine Rong.

“It still looks the same to me.”

“Yes, he has grown a little taller.”

Ye Shuo: “…”

Tsk.

Ye Shuo silently looked at Emperor Jingwen with a condemning look, what kind of father is this, he doesn’t even know whether his son has grown taller or not.

Being annoyed by Ye Shuo’s gaze, Emperor Jingwen was a little embarrassed: “What’s that look in your eyes? Are you blaming me?”

After being an emperor for a long time, he would not allow others to have even the slightest dissatisfaction. In his eyes, the slightest dissatisfaction would become an offense, even if the object was his own children or wife.

In the eyes of the emperor, there are no children or wives; they are all subjects and servants.

Don’t you feel cold standing so high?

Ye Shuo sighed helplessly: “It’s not that I’m surprised, I just think, Dad, you should at least pay more attention to your son.”

“Isn’t it enough for me——”

Before Emperor Jingwen finished speaking, he saw his son standing in front of a wall of pepper.

This wall was specially cleared out by Concubine Rong to measure her son’s height.

I saw that the mark on Ye Shuo’s head was almost two inches away from the last mark, about six or seven centimeters. Such a big difference was quite obvious in his childhood.

Emperor Jingwen was speechless for a moment.

Emperor Jingwen began to wonder if he really didn’t care enough about his son.

Wang Ziquan on the side was hesitant to speak. In fact, Wang Ziquan felt that the emperor cared enough about the Ninth Prince. To some extent, he was even more concerned about the Crown Prince. But this was the Emperor’s family affair after all, and it was not appropriate for him, a servant, to interrupt, right?

Concubine Rong next to him was completely unaware and seemed quite happy.

“Yes, you have grown taller. Tomorrow, I will ask the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make you two new sets of clothes. I see that the one you are wearing is old.”

It is really old, not because Concubine Rong is extravagant and feels old.

After all, Ye Shuo is now seven or eight years old, which is the age when clothes and shoes are worn out. He is lively and active, so naturally his clothes and shoes will be worn out faster.

Ye Shuo smiled happily: “Okay, mother, remember to pick some good ones for me.”

Emperor Jingwen couldn’t help but said, “You are a prince, not a princess, why do you care so much about beauty?” Why do you have to choose patterns when making clothes?

Ye Shuo thought that this was just a love of beauty. In his previous life, he had to specially match his clothes when he went out.

Isn’t this normal?

Ye Shuo’s mind moved, as if he discovered something, and he said, “Eh, eh, eh? Dad, I suddenly noticed that there is another fine line behind your eye?”

“What’s the matter? A real man never cares about these external things.”

Come on, then every time you choose the third place, you have to choose the best-looking one.

Ye Shuo took his mother’s bronze mirror and immediately saw the difference after looking through it.

Among them, Concubine Rong has the best skin. She is 28 years old now and still very young, with skin like that of a young girl. The second is Ye Shuo. As a child, his skin is good before he reaches puberty.

Only Emperor Jingwen is left, and whether in terms of skin color or the smoothness of his facial skin, he is definitely not as good as Ye Shuo and his mother.

Emperor Jingwen frowned subconsciously.

Just as he was about to say something, he noticed that his son was laughing in the bronze mirror. Emperor Jingwen immediately reacted: “Asshole!”

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ye Shuo immediately ran away: “So, Dad, appearance is still important for a man. It’s getting late, this son will take his leave first!”

“Remember to go to bed early, stay up late less, and exercise more!”

Looking at the little bastard’s anxious back, Emperor Jingwen’s slightly dark face finally brightened up.

The other side.

Ye Shuo returned to the side hall, and from Xiao Luzi’s words, he quickly found out what had happened in the Imperial Garden that afternoon.

Xiao Luzi originally thought that this matter had nothing to do with their master. It was Wu Liangdi and Wang Liangyuan who acted on their own initiative and used the prince as a tool to win favor, which would naturally arouse the emperor’s wrath.

As a result, when he looked up, Xiao Luzi saw that his master seemed to be silent.

He was puzzled for a long while. Just when Xiao Luzi was about to say something, he heard his master suddenly say, “It’s better to marry only one wife.”

If you have only one wife, you don’t need to compete for her favor, because all your love and attention belong to her alone.

Xiao Luzi was stunned. He didn’t understand why His Highness suddenly expressed such emotion.

But……

“Except for the poor common people who cannot get concubines, they only have one wife.” As for the rest of the men who have a bit of ability, who doesn’t have three wives and four concubines?

“You don’t understand.” Ye Shuo waved his hands. Just because other people do this doesn’t mean he has to do the same.

Before going to sleep, Ye Shuo was still thinking about what Xiao Luzi said. It was hard to describe how he felt, and in the end he could only sigh softly.

The next morning, when carrying Ye Shuo to school, Emperor Jingwen soon found out that his son had used his grandson to harass his other son.

Emperor Jingwen’s face immediately turned dark.

“What kind of nonsense are you teaching your little nephew?!”

“Well, son, isn’t this also about nurturing their father-son relationship?”

They soon arrived at the upper study. Not seeing the prince along the way, Ye Shuo immediately understood that the boy seemed to have failed.

“This can fail???”

Ye Shuo was stunned.

When Emperor Jingwen heard this, the veins on his forehead jumped violently, and then he warned solemnly: “The Crown Prince and the Emperor’s grandson are different from you. If you teach him recklessly again, I will definitely have someone break your legs. Do you hear me?”

“Yes, son understands…” Ye Shuo replied weakly.

Upon seeing this, Emperor Jingwen left with satisfaction.

Ye Shuo walked into the study room. Meeting his gaze that seemed to be looking at a loser, the little prince couldn’t help but lower his head even lower.

He really didn’t mean it.

“But my father said that I am the legitimate son and cannot…”

“If he says no, then no? Tell me, did he yell at you at that time? No, right? No means we can still discuss it. If we can’t discuss it, he will just get angry and won’t argue with you for so long. The more he talks, the greater the chance… Oh, you are so stupid.”

Ye Shuo was at a loss. How could a kid like Ye Xun, who didn’t dare to say it again after being rejected once, succeed?

“Wait, that’s not right. Why are you so clingy when you’re with me?”

Upon hearing this, Ye Xun couldn’t help but chuckle and said, “Because the Ninth Prince really makes people feel close to him. He is the most easy-going person I have ever met.” The other princes are also his uncles, but they don’t have the feeling that they can say whatever they want.

Just being close to him made Ye Xun feel very relaxed.

“The Ninth Prince never seems to get angry, and he never has a stern face. He smiles all day long.” This is probably one of the reasons why I feel relaxed.

Ye Shuo accepted the other party’s compliment with an expressionless face.

“If you could be half as eloquent to your father as you are to me, it would be fine.”

Ye Xun froze for a moment, then burst into tears.

While the two were chatting, the Sixth Prince seemed to be hesitant to speak. Obviously everyone now knew that it was because his father’s expectations for his Ninth Prince were different from others, which was why he was particularly good to him.

Poor Ninth Prince, he still thought he had gotten such a great bargain.

He is young and doesn’t know what power means. Sooner or later he will pay the price for indulging himself like this.

The Sixth Prince wanted to remind him, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn’t say them.

After all, only when the Ninth Prince was indulgent and unruly would he, who was also in Qiuwu Palace, be remembered and valued by his father. The Sixth Prince had no way to resist this temptation.

If the Ninth Prince rose a little, his own glory would be immediately buried, and he would not get any support from the Imperial Concubine at all.

Therefore, he had no choice but to step on him and climb up.

Therefore, the Sixth Prince finally said: “Don’t worry, Sixth Brother will definitely treat you well in the future and will not ignore you.” If he really won the favor of his father and officially entered the center of power, the Sixth Prince swore that he would not be left out.

Although I don’t know why he suddenly said this, but…

Ye Shuo touched his chin and laughed nonchalantly, “In that case, this younger brother’s future will depend entirely on you, my brother.”

What a humiliation it is for the son of a noble concubine to be inferior to others for a long time, neither high nor low.

The Sixth Prince remained silent and nodded: “Okay.”

Another three days passed in a flash, and the fifth prince, who had been sick in bed, finally recovered.

When he was sick, the Fifth Prince became furious when he thought about how so many people thought he fainted because of that bastard Ye Shuo.

It’s shameful, really shameful!

Rather than being embarrassed, the Fifth Prince was more worried about him asking him for those three conditions. When he came today, the Fifth Prince had already thought of how to shirk those conditions.

There is no way, promises are too important, and the Fifth Prince really doesn’t want to make them so easily.

Result……

Just when the Fifth Prince was gathering all his energy and preparing to confront that bastard Ye Shuo, he saw that the bastard Ye Shuo just glanced at him and had no intention of paying any attention to him at all. He even deliberately took a detour when passing by him.

This guy is quite fragile and fainted at the drop of a hat. Ye Shuo doesn’t dare to get close to him again. What if he gets blamed again?

As for those three conditions, well, if they’re gone, then they’re gone. It’s not a big deal.

At first the Fifth Prince thought it was his illusion, until during the break, the other party was playing with the little grandson of the emperor, and when they saw him coming, they suddenly stopped, and resumed playing after he left. Vaguely realizing something, the Fifth Prince’s face turned red with anger.

He really couldn’t help it, so he took the initiative to look for her after school in the afternoon.

With a “bang”, the Fifth Prince punched Ye Shuo’s desk, gritted his teeth, and stared at him intently: “What on earth do you mean?!”
