Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

After a little more inquiry, it turned out that it was the Ninth Prince who admitted it himself.

The Taifu felt mixed emotions and suddenly didn’t know what to say.

Only the Ninth Prince would think this was a good thing. If it were any other prince, when he said the word “Zhuangzi”, he would probably make a scene.

Although Zhuangzi is good, it is not suitable for the royal family.

Unaware of this, Emperor Jingwen was still praising him: “It turns out that the Grand Tutor has a good way of teaching. He has helped Xiaojiu settle down. Thank you for your hard work.”

Isn’t it true? After five days of rest, the Ninth Prince must feel good about himself.

The more Emperor Jingwen praised him, the more uncomfortable the Grand Tutor felt.

“I still have some memorials to deal with, so I’ll go ahead.” Finally, Emperor Jingwen left, and the Grand Tutor breathed a sigh of relief.

He originally wanted to go back to the East Palace, but halfway through, he finally changed direction.

“Let’s go and take a look at the library.” Since the Grand Tutor is the prince’s teacher and often walks around the palace, and since he is old, there is not much to be shy about.

Holding the prince’s token and under the guidance of the young eunuch, the tutor came all the way to the library.

At that time, Ye Shuo was catching up on his sleep.

There is no way, I got up too early in the morning. My child is still growing, how can he not get enough sleep?

Besides, the library is quiet. It is such a pleasure to sleep in a place filled with the fragrance of books and ink. Today, Ye Shuo even specifically told Xiao Luzi to secretly put a small pillow in his pocket before leaving Qiuwu Palace. Now, Ye Shuo can lie on the table without even worrying about his hands getting numb.

When the tutor arrived, what he saw was Ye Shuo sleeping soundly.

Looking at his attendants and study companions beside him, each one was studying more enthusiastically than the other.

Because of Ye Shuo’s previous reputation, the Grand Tutor had already been prepared, but when he suddenly saw this scene, he still felt excited for a moment.

After all, as a teacher, you have some occupational diseases.

It seems that the suspicion that the Ninth Prince was hiding his abilities and pretending to be naughty can be completely cleared.

The Ninth Prince really doesn’t like studying at all!

The Grand Tutor knew very well in his heart that he came here on a whim, and there was absolutely no possibility that the Ninth Prince had prepared in advance and put on a show for him.

And looking at the indentations on the Ninth Prince’s face, it doesn’t look like they were just made. His face has even turned red.

Xing Yucheng noticed that the palace maids who were sorting books nearby knelt down one after another. He looked up belatedly. The moment he saw the Grand Tutor, he was suddenly startled and hurriedly pulled the clothes of the Ninth Prince next to him.

“Your Highness, wake up, the Master is here…”

“What nonsense are you talking about…” How could the Master come here?

Ye Shuo was woken up in a daze. He was feeling dissatisfied, but when he looked up, he happened to meet the dark old face of the tutor. He was stunned for a moment.

No.

Didn’t we agree not to care?

“T-Teacher?”

It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s good like this.

Comforting himself in this way, the Grand Master tried his best to calm himself down. After a long time, the Grand Master calmed down and asked, “Have you finished copying the ten copies of “Xiao Yao You”?”

Xing Yucheng subconsciously prepared to show him the bound book, but was held down by Ye Shuo the next moment.

Is this guy stupid? It was agreed to be five days, and it’s only the second day. If he hands it in now, won’t there be new homework in the next three days?

We agreed on a five-day holiday, and not a single day can be lost!

So Ye Shuo started to play dumb, and even acted a little nervous: “Reply, reply Master, it hasn’t started yet…”

The Grand Tutor had expected this, so he didn’t find it strange.

The Grand Tutor wanted to say something several times but finally couldn’t hold it in any longer and said, “Don’t eat until you are full all day, and don’t waste a moment of your time. You…you take care of yourself!”

So what on earth did the Grand Tutor come here for this time? Could it be that he came here just to take a look at him?

Looking at the back of the tutor, Ye Shuo looked confused.

Then Ye Shuo sighed. Logically, there wouldn’t be such a change, unless the Grand Tutor had been stimulated by something.

Fortunately, fortunately, I hope there won’t be any problems later.

“You guys continue studying and don’t worry about me. Just remember to call me at lunchtime.” After saying that, Ye Shuo lay down again.

Xing Yucheng and Xiao Luzi’s expressions suddenly became even more confused than the Taifu’s just now, and they studied even harder afterward.

The other side.

After leaving the library, the Grand Tutor felt a little confused.

He always felt that things were a little different from what he had initially imagined.

It is true that the tutor knew that the Ninth Prince was playful, but he had never really seen him. In the tutor’s opinion, no matter how naughty a child could be, how naughty could he be?

The Taifu is surrounded by very ambitious young people, including the Crown Prince, who are also working very hard despite being in a high position.

The Grand Tutor had never known before that there were people who had no sense of urgency at all. Could it be that the Ninth Prince really had no sense of urgency at all?

How could he sleep in such an environment!

For a moment, the Taifu even wanted to yell at him and scold him for his laziness. After he came to his senses, he broke out in a cold sweat.

Perhaps because he had never seen someone retreat so completely like Ye Shuo, the Taifu took a long time to recover.

After that, along the way, the Taifu kept comforting himself that this was exactly what he wanted, with only benefits and no disadvantages, so he should just keep doing it this way.

The Grand Tutor couldn’t help but calm himself down.

Three days passed in a flash, and Ye Shuo slowly handed in the discounted copy of “Xiao Yao You”.

Seeing the tutor take it, Xing Yucheng’s heart almost jumped into his throat.

He always felt that this matter could not be concealed. Think about it, this person is the Grand Tutor. How could His Highness the Ninth Prince do it so obviously?

“Okay, I understand.” After turning two or three pages, the tutor found that the book was covered with tiny handwriting that looked like dog crawling. His eyes hurt, so he closed the book immediately.

Xing Yucheng couldn’t help but widen his eyes.

Ye Shuo was not panicked at all. Think about it, the Grand Tutor had no intention of asking him to learn anything real, so how could he really check it carefully? Even if he saw it later, he would pretend not to see it.

Ye Shuo just knew it, that’s why he is so brave.

After resting for five days in a row, Ye Shuo originally thought that the tutor would just ask him a few random questions and then assign him a bunch of homework, and that would be all.

Unexpectedly, the Grand Tutor kept him for a whole morning before letting him go.

Compared with the previous cup of tea, the difference of this half day’s effort is simply too great.

Ye Shuo’s first reaction was that this tutor was no good, not cruel enough at all. Since he was going to do it, why didn’t he do it to the end?

If he was cruel enough, wouldn’t things be much better for me?

The Grand Tutor is worthy of being the Grand Tutor. The series of questions made Ye Shuo dizzy and extremely sleepy. He asked questions about literature, history, geography, classics, etc. It was obvious that the Grand Tutor was very knowledgeable, understood everything, and could explain everything.

If I had known earlier, I would have come a little later today, and come back after dawn. Ye Shuo thought that he would be done quickly, but in the end…

What a mistake. What a mistake.

In the end, the tutor didn’t even talk to him about Zhuangzi anymore, and the content of the book he was copying today was changed to “The Analects of Confucius”, which scared Ye Shuo so much that he trembled violently.

Why are you starting to teach the real thing?

Ye Shuo began to reflect on himself, wondering if he had answered too many questions just now. In the future, he must answer a few more questions.

“Don’t worry, Master. Shuo’er will hand in all these articles in seven days.”

About half a cup of tea later, Ye Shuo left with his companion and attendants. After the East Palace became completely quiet, the Grand Tutor gasped for air, feeling a blackness in front of his eyes and a sharp pain in his heart.

Apparently, today’s investigation has made the Grand Tutor feel a little overwhelmed.

The Ninth Prince’s ignorance was completely beyond the Grand Tutor’s tolerance.

Not to mention what happened earlier, the Ninth Prince didn’t even know how the founding emperor of the Ye family gained control of the world, and that was the Ninth Prince’s own great-grandfather!

Also, when he mentioned that there was not only one country, Great Zhou, on this land, but there were two other countries around it that stood opposite to Great Zhou, the Ninth Prince’s expression of disbelief deeply hurt the Taifu’s heart.

The first two questions above would have been fine, but it was the third and final question that completely broke down the Taifu’s psychological defenses.

The Ninth Prince actually felt that the sky above his head and the land under his feet were round.

This is not just ignorance, he doesn’t even have common sense!

But to be honest, this matter is not Ye Shuo’s fault. After all, the time and space he is in is obviously different from his previous life. He dare not answer questions about history randomly.

Also, the country he lived in in his previous life had already completed unification more than two thousand years ago. He thought so purely as a subconscious reaction. How could he have known that his cheap father was like that, and as a result, he couldn’t even achieve the most basic unification, so Ye Shuo never asked about it for all these years.

As for the third question, the sky above my head and the earth under my feet are no different from my previous life. Every day still has 12 hours, the solar terms are still the same, and the sun still rises in the east and sets in the west. It can be basically confirmed that the sky and the earth are still round.

So is he wrong to say that? No!

However, Taifu did not think so. Shocked in his heart, these three questions and Ye Shuo’s reactions when answering the questions became Taifu’s thorns. It was like they were branded in Taifu’s heart, and Taifu would think of them from time to time.

How could this happen? How could something so simple go wrong?

Of course, the Grand Tutor pretended to be very calm on the surface, and it was hard to tell that he was so troubled that he almost vomited blood.

Seven days later, when Ye Shuo came to hand in his homework on time, he didn’t even notice it. He just felt that the tutor was staying late more and more.

After learning from the previous experience, Ye Shuo dared not just say he didn’t know the next two times. Gradually, he was able to answer some questions.

But it was no use now, the initial impression was so deep that it was too late for him to express it now.

Every time he saw him, Taifu’s sanity was on the verge of collapse.

Ye Shuo over there still doesn’t know anything.

After resting back and forth for about a month, Ye Shuo finally felt a little bored staying in the palace. He was seven years old this year and could run and jump. He felt that it was time for him to go out and try his luck again.

That day in the library, Ye Shuo opened his eyes after practicing, looked out at the fiery red sky, and suddenly said, “Why don’t we go play outside the palace?”

Xing Yucheng’s hand trembled, and the piece of paper he was writing on was completely ruined.

Xiao Luzi had never been out since he entered the palace at the age of seven. Now that he was fourteen, he instinctively felt that this idea was too horrifying.

“Your Highness, this is inappropriate!”

“The Imperial Concubine and the Emperor will not agree!”

Could it be that His Highness is planning to make trouble again?

Xiao Luzi accidentally revealed his true thoughts.

“What are you thinking about?” Ye Shuo felt that the two people around him were too unimaginative.

“Isn’t it possible to find a ready-made reason just by looking for it?”

The Grand Tutor can’t be the only one satisfied, he has to do something when necessary, right?

Ye Shuo decided that when the time comes, he would say that it was the Grand Tutor who asked him to go home to teach. As long as it was related to learning about the common usage of ancient and modern times, how could his mother and stepfather not agree?

Besides, the Grand Tutor doesn’t pay much attention to him, so won’t he be allowed to play around as he pleases?

It happened that the third day was the time for a new round of homework submission. Ye Shuo handed in his homework in the morning, and when the Grand Tutor was about to leave the palace, he took Xiao Luzi and hid in the carriage in advance, quietly waiting for the carriage to take them out of the palace.

Oh, I forgot to say that he had already given Xing Yucheng a holiday in advance and asked him to wait outside the palace.

As for whether I told the tutor, of course I didn’t.

Fearing that he would not agree, Ye Shuo simply acted first and reported to him later, without any ambiguity.

Just like that, the carriage slowly drove out of the palace gate, finally ending a day’s hard work. The Grand Tutor was drinking tea happily in the carriage, but after passing the palace gate, he suddenly heard a movement under his butt.

When the Grand Tutor saw the Ninth Prince opening the storage box and coming out, he couldn’t help but spit out all the tea he had drunk with a “puff”.

“Your Highness!?!”
