Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

It is known that when my cheap father left last year, he only took 200 people with him, and now there are still 800 guards left in the garden.

The number eight hundred seems like a lot by itself, but it’s not the same thing if you break it down.

No matter how precious a concubine is, she cannot compare to the queen. No matter how unfavored the queen is, she is still the queen.

It is impossible to say that half of the eight hundred people will be assigned to each position. Most of them will have to stay to protect the queen. The departure date is approaching, and it is too late to temporarily transfer guards from the imperial city.

Therefore, the most likely possibility is that his mother took 300 people back to the capital, leaving 500 people to continue guarding the palace. This distribution seems reasonable on the surface.

But if there are only 300 people, it is actually not enough.

Although we are on the official road, there will basically be no foolish people who will cause trouble, but it is better to be safe than sorry.

If they encounter any unexpected situation on the road, such as an assassination, three hundred people are too scarce and cannot withstand a wave of attacks.

By then, if a dozen skilled fighters were properly ambushed and focused on rushing towards the carriage, there would still be a good chance of success.

After the division, the troops were weak, and Ye Shuo suggested that they would rather wait a little longer than take the risk.

But he never told his mother about this kind of thing, so Ye Shuo just pulled his mother’s sleeve and said, “Since the Queen is not leaving, then we won’t leave either, okay?”

Anyway, no matter what, it is imperative to walk with the Queen. It is so safe to be with eight hundred guards.

It can also prevent the Queen from taking action, thus reducing a level of danger.

The little prince was weak and could not stand being tossed around, so even if the empress and his mother did not get along, they would not do it when the little prince was present. The empress could not bear any harm to the little prince.

Concubine Rong couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed when she heard this: “But Shuo’er, everything has been packed.”

She loved luxury the most, and she had the most things in the palace. It was extremely troublesome to move them back and forth. It took the palace servants seven or eight days to finish sorting them out.

When the imperial concubine thought of this, she couldn’t help but hesitate.

Ye Shuo doesn’t care about that. Trouble is always better than danger.

Ye Shuo immediately used his trump card: “Mom, when I go back this time, my father will definitely force me to study again, so please let me have some fun.”

It’s because the Queen is ill, not because they don’t want to leave. What a great opportunity to buy time.

Thinking of this, Concubine Rong couldn’t help but feel a little soft-hearted.

After struggling for a moment, she said helplessly: “…That’s fine.”

“Thank you, mother!” Ye Shuo was so excited that he gave the imperial concubine a big hug, then disappeared in a flash.

Recently Ye Shuo discovered a new recreational activity – boating.

Just get a small boat, cover it with thick straw and a quilt, lie down in it, and let the boat drift in the lake. It’s so comfortable.

Xing Yucheng, who was standing by, looked hopeless when he saw this.

The Ninth Prince has been playing for a whole year, why doesn’t he feel bored yet?

The other companions thought their lives were easy, that all they had to do was play with him every day, but who knew how anxious he was when he couldn’t learn anything!

Looking at her son’s cheerful back until he disappeared, the imperial concubine laughed and shook her head: “This child.”

There is no other way. What else can I do? I can only move back the things I moved out.

When the queen heard the news, she almost broke her teeth.

She had already arranged all the things on her side, but unexpectedly, the imperial concubine didn’t want to leave!

The queen had thought before that if she changed her mind at the last minute, more than half of the eight hundred guards would have to stay, and the remaining half would not be a concern.

After all, most of the Black Armor Guards are guards of commoner origin. They all waited until they were almost adults to start practicing martial arts, so how capable could they be now?

It’s totally incomparable to the masters who have been trained in the family since childhood.

Among the real aristocratic families, which one doesn’t have some background?

The number three hundred sounds like a lot, but that’s just the way it is.

The queen had even sent out the letter, and now the imperial concubine’s behaviour was like a wake-up call to her.

With the imperial concubine’s impatient temper, she would definitely leave once she had made the decision. When she suddenly found out that she was sick and couldn’t return, she would inevitably say a few sarcastic words behind her back, mocking her for her weak body, and then leave triumphantly in front of her.

How come it changes so suddenly now?

The queen looked depressed, so she had to send someone to inquire about her.

As it turned out, it was the Ninth Prince who was clamouring and shouting that he had not had enough fun and insisted on staying.

This Ninth Prince!

After hearing the eunuch’s description, the queen almost vomited blood.

She never expected that her well-planned plan would fail because of her child’s love of play.

They all forgot that if the Ninth Prince seized this opportunity, he would definitely not come back.

At this time the queen still held out a glimmer of hope, thinking that the imperial concubine should not indulge the ninth prince so unlimitedly. As a result, she waited and waited, and a whole month passed. The ninth prince refused to leave even though she did not mention anything, and the imperial concubine did not care at all.

How could there be someone in the world who is a mother like this? !

There was really no way to delay it any longer, and the queen had no choice but to announce the news of her “recovery”.

Alas, happy times are always so short…

It would be better if the Queen could stay “sick” for a little longer…

Upon hearing this sad news, Ye Shuo felt terrible.

Xing Yucheng, who was standing by, heaved a sigh of relief and was extremely grateful to the Queen.

Finally leaving!

On the day of departure, to be on the safe side, Ye Shuo arrived early at the carriage that her mother would be riding in.

Check every part of the carriage from beginning to end.

Seeing that neither the wheel tracks nor the carriages showed any signs of tampering, Ye Shuo heaved a sigh of relief.

Ok, it looks safe.

He stretched out his hands and shook a few important parts. Seeing that the upper parts were not shaking as they should be, he felt relieved and crawled out from under the car body.

Concubine Rong, who happened to be there, was immediately frightened by her cat-like son.

“Shuo’er!”

“Oh my God, hurry up, Xiao Luzi, take him back and change him into clean clothes!”

It’s just a little dirt on my body, it shouldn’t be so exaggerated…

Seeing his mother’s face full of disgust, Ye Shuo could only go back and change his clothes reluctantly.

When Ye Shuo came out after washing his hands and feet, he looked up and saw the wet nurse holding his younger sister Jianjian.

Now, the little Princess Jianjian is almost four months old and can roll over. Every time she rolls over, she raises her head high. It can be seen that she is a strong-willed child.

However, every time when she was about to turn over, Ye Shuo would flip her back, making all the efforts of Princess Jianjian go to waste.

The little princess knew nothing now and could only struggle with his hand foolishly. Ye Shuo never got tired of it every time, and would not stop until Princess Jianjian was so tired that she could no longer get up. Only then would Ye Shuo be satisfied and stop.

Xiaoluzi, who was standing next to him, could hardly bear to watch it anymore and felt that the Ninth Prince had a really bad temper and even spared no children!

Oh, I forgot, the Ninth Prince treated the little grandson of the emperor like this too, making him cry in anger every time. Now it seems that he is not any better to his own sister.

Poor Princess Jianjian…

After four months of recovery, the little princess’s head finally became normal. She was now white and plump, and no longer had the ugly look before. Only then did Ye Shuo reluctantly reach out and hug her.

Jianjian is okay, an angel baby. All she does every day is eat and sleep, and she doesn’t make much trouble. Otherwise, Ye Shuo would really run as far away as possible.

After Ye Shuo held her in his arms, she didn’t react much. She looked dull and stupid, like a little fool.

Before, Ye Shuo suspected that there might be something wrong, so he secretly asked the imperial physician.

The old doctor was silenced immediately by the question. After the old doctor explained, Ye Shuo finally understood that a child of this age would not make trouble, so she naturally looked stupid. It did not mean that the little princess had any brain problems.

Only then did Ye Shuo feel relieved.

When the Ninth Prince stretched out his hand to ask for the child, the wet nurse subconsciously glanced at the Imperial Concubine next to him. The Ninth Prince was only a few years old. What if he bumped into the princess?

But the imperial concubine nodded, and the nurse let go.

Ye Shuo was very strong, and the baby’s summer clothes were thin, so he didn’t have to exert much effort.

Just when Ye Shuo was playing with his sister, the Queen and her entourage finally arrived.

“Greetings to Her Majesty the Queen, may Her Majesty be blessed with good fortune.”

“Well, get up.”

The queen quickly noticed Ye Shuo and the little princess as her eyes slid around.

As expected of a military general, she is in good health, with two consecutive children being so strong. If the princess’s physique were exchanged with her son’s, everything would be fine.

Thinking of her frail son, the queen couldn’t help but feel heartbroken.

The Queen had no intention of greeting the Imperial Concubine and was even afraid that the Imperial Concubine would laugh at her. She straightened her back and stepped into the carriage with the help of others.

But in fact, the imperial concubine was not that careful and would not pay attention to whether her waist was straight.

A gust of wind blew by, and Ye Shuo smelled a faint scent of medicine in the air.

Looking at the little prince born by the queen, he is now seven months old and so weak that he cannot even be held upright. His bones are not that hard, and if he is held upright for a long time, he will become limp and can hardly sit still in an adult’s arms.

It is already midsummer, but he is still wrapped in swaddling clothes, for fear that he will catch a cold in the wind.

The imperial concubine had only heard that the little prince was not in good health before, but today was the first time she saw him, and she was inevitably shocked.

When they got into the carriage, the imperial concubine couldn’t hold back and whispered, “I really don’t know what the queen is trying to do.”

Is it really worth it to ruin your body for the sake of having a child, but the child turns out not to be very healthy?

The Queen’s family background was not much worse than hers, she was also the legitimate daughter of a prominent family. She was completely different from other concubines who needed children. For them, having children was just icing on the cake and was really not necessary.

Even if the queen doesn’t give birth to a child, she is still the queen. Even if she doesn’t give birth to a child, she is still the imperial concubine. There is really no difference.

Therefore, the imperial concubine had not been pregnant and had not used any medicine for many years after entering the palace. Her parents and brother doted on her at home. A favoured girl would always be more pampered. If the two children had not come on their own, there would really be no other way. Imperial Concubine Rong might not have been able to endure this hardship.

Although both children are very cute, Guifei still felt that pregnancy and childbirth were a nightmare.

If possible, she hopes that Shuo’er and Jianjian will be the only children in her life.

The absence of a prince did not affect her competition with the queen, and the imperial concubine did not feel that she was weak, so she could not understand why the queen was so obsessed with the issue of offspring. Wouldn’t it be better for her to be nicer?

Ye Shuo could guess some of it, most likely she was unwilling to accept it.

As the saying goes, those who are involved in the situation are often the most confused. Once people are deeply involved in the situation, it is difficult to see clearly.

I just hope that this prince who is finally born can grow up safely. Otherwise, I don’t know what the queen who has staked her entire fortune on him will do.

As long as the little prince is alive, even if he is not qualified to participate in the competition, he can at least leave a glimmer of hope for the queen.

As long as people have hope, they will not go to extremes.

But this possibility is really small. The little prince is now the only bargaining chip of the queen. In this case, how can the little prince live comfortably in the future…

Based on the relationship between the imperial concubine and the queen, Ye Shuo should be happy, but he really couldn’t be happy.

After all, children are innocent.

In this palace, children are no longer children.

The same goes for Concubine Rong. If it were before, she would definitely laugh at the Queen for paying such a huge price only to give birth to a sickly child. But now that she has children of her own, she doesn’t want to use the children as a weapon to attack the Queen.

“Forget it, forget it. Seeing how terrible she is now, I won’t bother with her.”

The imperial concubine suddenly felt a little bored.

Out of consideration for the little prince’s health, the team took seven days to reach Shangjing City, which was supposed to be a three-day journey.

Emperor Jingwen was busy at that time and did not show up in person, he just sent someone to pick him up.

Ye Shuo didn’t care. His stepfather had been like this for a long time. But if he had to speak harshly, he had to let him see it, right?

Just like that, Ye Shuo held the little princess in his arms and went straight to the Qinzheng Palace.

At that time, Emperor Jingwen was discussing state affairs with his ministers. Not long after the meeting ended and everyone had not yet dispersed, he heard a familiar voice coming from outside.

“Father, father, are you here? Look what your son has brought you!”

Emperor Jingwen and all the ministers were stunned for a moment, and soon they watched the Ninth Prince coming over with something in his hands.

Maybe it was a little heavy, so he had to hold his strength to carry the thing in when he crossed the threshold.

After seeing clearly what the so-called thing was, Emperor Jingwen stood up with a “whoosh”.
