Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Chapter 97: Guardian



Having served the Imperial Concubine for so long, and with the favours that the Duke of Zhen’s Mansion had shown them, the maids had long regarded the Imperial Concubine as their own master. Moreover, the Ninth Prince was so likeable and they had watched him grow up.

The two maids didn’t dare to think about what they would do if something unexpected happened to the imperial concubine.

“Shuo’er is here, quickly put it away.” Looking through the window, the imperial concubine saw the little man walking towards them with his attendants from afar. Fearing that she would be discovered, she hurriedly called out in panic.

Nanny Jing stood up and put the letter into her sleeve.

Ye Shuo was not much better. After hearing the news that the queen had given birth, he almost subconsciously came to his mother.

Seeing that his mother was still standing there quietly, Ye Shuo immediately relaxed.

Noticing that the corners of Mammy’s eyes were slightly red, as if she had just cried, Ye Shuo paused abruptly. The next moment, he quickly returned to normal, so fast that no one noticed.

Although a person in his/her thirties is no longer old enough to act like a spoiled child, as long as his/her mother is still alive, no matter how old he/she is, he/she is still a child in front of his/her mother.

Just like Ye Shuo now, he urgently needs to be kissed, hugged and lifted up.

Regarding this point, Concubine Rong would never let Ye Shuo down. She let her son nestle in her arms, patting his back and humming a tune softly.

That’s right, this little thing blocking the way is really an eyesore and seriously hinders him from getting close to his mother.

Ye Shuo lowered his head and looked at his mother’s round belly with an unfriendly expression.

I don’t know if it noticed his gaze, but the little thing was not afraid. Instead, it nodded arrogantly.

A small bulge quickly appeared on the imperial concubine’s belly, as if to show her existence.

Seeing this, Ye Shuo couldn’t help but sneer: “Ha.”

“Be careful or I’ll beat you up if you do that again.”

Considering her doesn’t mean everything has to go her way, Ye Shuo can still tell the difference.

Seeing that he seemed serious and not joking, maybe she sensed that the atmosphere was not good, or maybe she was simply tired of playing, the little thing quickly quieted down and was as well-behaved as it could be.

Only then was Ye Shuo satisfied.

The imperial concubine next to them looked at the interaction between the two “people” and couldn’t help but feel both amused and sad.

“Oh, right, mother.” Ye Shuo suddenly thought of something, so he opened his big eyes and looked up and said, “After my sister is born, can you let me take care of her?”

It’s not that Ye Shuo is so mean. His younger brothers and sisters also have to help raise the child, and it’s mainly his mother who raises the child… Ye Shuo is really worried.

Thinking back to how his mother raised him, Ye Shuo couldn’t help but be silent.

The way his mother raises children, any child will be raised astray by her.

Ye Shuo believed in his mother’s love for her son, but he really didn’t believe in his mother’s way of education.

No, his mother doesn’t have any educational methods at all. She just spoils him blindly, and she can’t stand it when the child starts to act like a spoiled brat.

The more Ye Shuo enjoyed it in the past, the more scared he is now.

“This…” The imperial concubine hesitated when she heard this.

In her opinion, she should raise her own child. Shuo’er is forced to study by the emperor every day, which is very stressful. If she asks him to take care of the child, the imperial concubine cannot bear it.

However, the imperial concubine did have too much to worry about. There were so many palace servants in the palace. How could Ye Shuo take care of things like dressing and eating?

At most, it’s just a question of the princess’s character.

Seeing his mother hesitate, Ye Shuo’s expression immediately became pitiful: “Mom, just obey your son.”

It is said that what the imperial concubine can’t stand the most is children acting coquettishly in front of her. Once they act coquettishly, the imperial concubine’s IQ drops rapidly.

In addition, the princess has not been born yet, and the imperial concubine’s heart is still with Ye Shuo. After being coaxed by him, the imperial concubine got excited and actually agreed to hand over her daughter to her son for training.

Nanny Jing and Nanny Yu, who were standing by, were unable to stop it and had to watch helplessly as the poor unborn princess was sold by her mother.

Oh my God, what would happen if the princess learned from the Ninth Prince’s lively personality that makes him want to tear down the imperial palace?

Just thinking about that scene made the two maids feel dizzy.

But in fact, although Ye Shuo had never raised a child, he clearly knew the principle that everything will turn into the opposite extreme and that negatives will turn into positives.

It’s like a diligent couple, who will most likely raise a lazy child. Because the couple does all the housework, the child has nothing to do, and over time, they will get used to it and naturally become lazy.

On the contrary, a lazy couple will most likely give birth to very diligent children, because if the couple does not work, the house will be a mess and it will be unbearable to look at, so the children will naturally help.

Although this theory has no scientific basis, it should be correct based on experience, so Ye Shuo thinks it is worth a try.

Women in this era already have many constraints. If they don’t suffer a little early on, they will suffer all the consequences in the future.

so……

I’m sorry, sister!

The poor little princess, who is still an embryo, is unaware of her brother’s sinister intentions and is now having fun in the imperial concubine’s belly.

Half an hour later, Ye Shuo had had enough of his mother. After returning to the room, he took a deep breath and looked at Xing Yucheng beside him.

“Here are five tales of silver, and please help me write a letter.”

In less than a year, he had so much silver that he had no place to put it, and it was difficult to hide it.

Looking at the brand new five taels of silver in front of him, Xing Yucheng almost cried.

But now Xing Yucheng was already stuck in the mud, unable to get out even if he wanted to. He had no choice but to succumb to the tyranny of the Ninth Prince.

What Xing Yucheng didn’t expect was that this time the Ninth Prince asked him to write a…crying letter?

the other side.

The Queen was still struggling in the delivery room. The further she got into the later stages of her pregnancy, the stronger her body’s reactions became, and the more uncomfortable she felt.

Recently, the queen has been feeling a bit short of breath.

Today was an ordinary day. The queen walked around in the garden as usual, following the advice of the imperial physician that more exercise would help with childbirth.

As a result, my water broke just because I walked a little further.

And now, she is only seven months pregnant.

Thinking of this, the queen couldn’t help but panic: “Protect the prince, you must protect my prince!”

The imperial physician naturally knew how much the queen had paid for this pregnancy and did not dare to take it lightly.

“Don’t worry, Your Majesty. I will use all my medical skills to ensure the safety of Your Majesty and the prince.” The imperial physician said quickly, sweating profusely.

After hearing this, the queen felt relieved, but before she could say anything, the next wave of severe pain came like a tide.

“ah–!”

Since the Queen had used drugs during her pregnancy, the pregnancy and delivery were naturally extremely difficult. It lasted for almost a day and a night and it was still not over.

The queen went from struggling to hold on in the beginning to being on the verge of death now.

We can’t go on like this, if we continue like this we’re going to have big problems!

Just as the imperial physician outside was sweating profusely, he suddenly heard someone inside shouting, “Blood! Bleeding!”

The imperial physician’s vision immediately went dark.

After all, the Queen is the mother of a country, and he cannot afford to bear any consequences if something happens to her. If he delays any further, there will surely be two deaths. In this case, he might as well take the risk.

Soon, the imperial physician made a decision in his mind.

He quickly wrote a prescription and told the palace maids to hurry up and boil it. After it was boiled, the doctor brought it over. Without waiting for it to cool down, he asked someone to bring the bowl of medicine to the Empress.

After drinking a bowl of strong medicine, the Queen finally regained some strength.

She had always regarded this child as her only hope, so she held on and made an effort, and finally gave birth to the child.

He is indeed a prince.

But…why is this child silent?

The excitement faded away like the tide, and the midwife panicked when she came to her senses.

I don’t know if it’s because the baby has been holding the food in the stomach for too long, but I saw that the baby’s whole body was blue, and his skin was not as warm as that of a normal child, but instead was emitting bursts of coolness.

Especially the queen’s personal maid, whose eyes were filled with fear.

As if she had noticed something, the queen struggled to get up and asked, “What’s wrong, what’s wrong with the prince?”

As she moved, the blood from her body increased.

“Your Majesty, please wait a moment. I’ll be back soon.” The maid gritted her teeth and hurriedly handed the prince to the imperial physician behind the screen.

When the imperial physician saw the child’s current condition, he was suddenly shocked.

After she reacted, she immediately rubbed the prince’s back, while the remaining doctors quickly gave the queen acupuncture in the hope of stopping her bleeding.

Wake up, wake up!

If anything happens to the little prince, given the queen’s current persistence, they will probably all be buried with him.

The imperial physician’s prayers actually worked, and soon the little prince’s fingers moved, his body temperature gradually returned to normal, and the bruises on his body were not so severe.

The imperial physician saw that the little prince’s eyes seemed to open for a moment, but then quickly closed again due to exhaustion.

“Wow–“

After hearing this cry, the anxiety that everyone had been holding in their hearts finally let out. Everyone’s steps became unsteady, and they were almost exhausted after a day and night of hard work.

However, although the prince was saved, the queen’s condition was not very good.

…………

Five hours later, the queen learned from the imperial physician that because the medicine was too strong, she might not be able to have children again in this lifetime. What’s more, her life span would be shortened and she would suffer from various illnesses. She would have to take medicine for the rest of her life.

Even the queen couldn’t help but be stunned.

Looking at her son who was now sleeping soundly beside her, he was obviously much weaker than other healthy princes because he was premature. She didn’t know whether he could grow up.

If the baby cannot be raised, all my hard work will be in vain.

For a moment, the queen’s expression seemed to be both happy and sad.

On the other side, in Shangjing City, inside the Imperial Palace——

Emperor Jingwen did not express anything after receiving the news that the empress had given birth successfully, and his eyes were unusually cold. As an emperor, he naturally knew the whole process of the empress’s childbirth.

But this path was chosen by the Queen herself, so she has to walk it alone.

Following closely behind was Xiaojiu’s letter.

I inadvertently remembered the snowman picture he drew for me last time. What snowman picture? That was not a snowman picture at all. It was clearly just a blob of ink!

The corners of Emperor Jingwen’s mouth twitched slightly.

Judging from the news from the palace reported by the guards, the little bastard had most likely ignored his orders again.

He hasn’t done a single word of the homework assigned by him and the tutor.

After the imperial concubine gives birth, she will bring people back and then we will see what he will do!

Despite his disgust, Emperor Jingwen couldn’t help but open the letter.

I thought my son was showing off to me again what he ate and played in the palace, but when I opened the paper inside, I found that it was not the case at all.

This time, the little bastard’s letter was full of panic and fear.

He was frightened by the queen’s childbirth.

Compared to other princes who were always stronger and never willing to show it openly no matter how difficult or painful it was, Ye Shuo really said whatever he had in mind.

In his opinion, if you don’t say some things, the emperor will never think about them at all.

You should tell your cheap dad whatever you want to say, otherwise he won’t know anything at all.

Expecting my cheap dad to guess it himself is harder than climbing to the sky.

Emperor Jingwen vaguely remembered that the little bastard was just a child. Even though he was usually heartless, it didn’t mean he wouldn’t be afraid.

When a child is frightened or suffers, won’t he subconsciously come to look for his parents?

Originally, Emperor Jingwen did not think that it was a big deal for the imperial concubine to give birth to a child, but maybe because his son mentioned it too many times in his letters, he even wrote down whether the little princess kicked today, when she kicked, and what the fetal movement was like. Over time, Emperor Jingwen naturally understood something.

After Ye Shuo’s reminder, Emperor Jingwen suddenly frowned as he thought that if the imperial concubine was like this when she gave birth to a child.

By then, not only Xiaojiu will be scared, but the imperial concubine and the child will also be in trouble.

“Dad, it would be great if you were here right now.”

When Emperor Jingwen saw this sentence in the letter, he felt even more worried.

But there was no way, the imperial palace was too far away from the temporary palace, and Emperor Jingwen was powerless.

After the emperor read the letter from the Ninth Prince, although he didn’t say anything, he was unable to get into the mood for a long time. Wang Ziquan, who was standing by, couldn’t help but smack his lips.

Just like that, when Emperor Jingwen received the news that the imperial concubine was about to give birth more than a month later, he subconsciously tightened his hand holding the cup.

the other side.

The distance between the imperial palace and the temporary palace was long, so Ye Shuo sent someone to send the message out in advance. Almost as soon as he sent the message, his mother followed suit within a few days.

Ye Shuo took a deep breath, and his whole body tensed up like a wound-up spring.
