Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

He went where he was told to go and killed where he was told to kill. From the time he received the news to the time he led his men out of the palace, it took him less than an hour in total. Compared to other princes, he was really brave.

The eldest prince immediately understood why his father doted on him so much. Although his younger brother was a bit annoying, he was not completely without merit.

At the very least, he is much better than the Second Prince and other people who only know how to hide in the dark and do some devilish tricks.

Ye Shuo’s decisiveness and efficiency immediately suited the eldest prince’s taste.

And this child even dared to kill the envoy, let alone himself. The eldest prince suddenly felt much more balanced.

He is just like that. He treats everyone the same and doesn’t target me specifically.

The eldest prince was dressed in royal robes and walked with the gait of a dragon and a tiger. In the blink of an eye, he arrived in front of Huyan Jue.

The eldest prince was born tall, and he had an aura that came from his experience at the border. The oppressive feeling made Huyan Jue want to retreat.

In just a moment, Huyan Jue stopped walking.

The eldest prince originally wanted to pay his respects to Emperor Jingwen, but when he saw his brother’s current appearance, he couldn’t help but be stunned. How did he become like this?

After being called up by Emperor Jingwen, the eldest prince looked at Huyan Jue again.

Hu Yanjue took a deep breath and managed to calm down: “Does the eldest prince intend to go to war with my Beiting?”

The eldest prince laughed loudly, and then his eyes were like torches, and his aura was like a mountain pressing down on him: “So what if we start a war? It will only mean that I will have to endure the wind and sand at the border for another ten years.”

Hu Yanjue didn’t really believe it. How could there be such a selfless prince in this world?

“Emperor Zhou, Prince Ding, don’t forget that our Beiting soldiers are all brave and good at fighting.”

Hu Yanjue pointed out the identities of the two people killed by Ye Shuo in a slow voice: “The ones who died at the hands of the Ninth Prince were the sons of General Qiu and General Long. Emperor Zhou, if this news reaches the ears of the two generals, they will definitely be furious. I admit that the eldest prince is indeed young and strong, but I’m afraid that a first prince will not be able to do it by then, right?”

“If you don’t want the people of the Great Zhou to suffer, it wouldn’t be wronged to wrong the Ninth Prince.”

It was a naked threat, not even disguised.

Good! Beiting is really good, even the prince dares to ask for it!

This is simply too much!

Emperor Jingwen and the eldest prince were furious, but before they could speak, they heard another voice coming from outside the hall –

“If the eldest prince alone is not enough, what about adding me?”

“As for my sons, although they are not very capable, they are still enough for us.”

It turned out that after the Duke of Zhen received the news about his daughter, he thought about the actions of the envoys in the past few days. After much thought, he decided to bring his sons with him when he entered the palace this time.

Look, it’s just in time to come in handy now.

Although Ye Shuo’s uncles have not been to the battlefield for many years, they have always maintained their peak condition due to daily training. It should not be difficult for them to lead the troops here. After a little adaptation, they can continue to go to the battlefield.

But now, General Lanruo, the most powerful general in Beiting, was beheaded by the eldest prince, and his head was cut off and sent to Emperor Jingwen as a gift.

In this comparison, Beiting is actually at a disadvantage.

Perhaps the Duke of Zhen had left too deep an impression on him during the time of the previous emperor, and he also knew clearly what kind of people those officials were. In order to prevent the past from happening again and to avoid being upset, the Duke of Zhen simply claimed to be ill and did not come to the banquet on the day of the banquet, and Huyan Jue did not see him either.

He thought that after so many years, the Duke of Zhen would have become very old, but when he saw him today, Huyan Jue found that it was not the case at all.

The Duke of Zhen is a little older than before, but he is still in good health, and his energy and spirit are no less than when he was young.

Compared with the nightmare that Beiting left on Da Zhou, the shadow left by the Duke of Zhen on Beiting was equally significant.

The Duke of Zhen went against the order of the late emperor and killed 100,000 of their soldiers without blinking an eye. Such a character and such means are truly frightening.

Not to mention that the Duke of Zhen’s sons were also quite famous on the battlefield back then.

When Huyan Jue saw the Duke of Zhen appearing in a suit of armor, he knew that his plan to make the Ninth Prince bow his head would fail.

Ye Shuo noticed that Hu Yanjue was short of breath, and his momentum suddenly became stronger: “Today my father, my elder brother, and my grandfather are standing here, let’s see what you can do to me!”

Emperor Jingwen felt relieved when he saw that his son put him at the first place.

Seeing the child in front of him being so aggressive, Hu Yanjue was angry and hateful, and couldn’t help but grit his teeth and said: “Ninth Prince, you killed my Beiting envoy, you have to give an explanation!?”

Ye Shuo did have reasons, and they were quite legitimate.

But why did Ye Shuo tell him this?

“If I want to kill them, just kill them. Why do I need so many reasons? Do I need to explain myself?”

Emperor Jingwen, the eldest prince, and the Duke of Zhen were originally planning to listen, wondering what could have made him so angry that he would kill someone directly. However, they were caught off guard and heard such words. Even the eldest prince could not help but feel genuinely shocked at his younger brother’s courage.

This is too arrogant. The Duke of Zhen couldn’t help but sweat profusely. He had never been like this when he was young…

If Huyan Jue hadn’t been here, Emperor Jingwen would really have wanted to give him a look and ask him to restrain himself.

However, Ye Shuo has now found a backer, and the backer is so reliable. It would be strange if Ye Shuo could restrain himself.

Compared with Emperor Jingwen and his two men, Ye Shuo’s six uncles were very considerate. Not only did they not think there was anything wrong, they also thought that what he said was good and that he was worthy of being their nephew.

Looking at Ye Xun and the others who had been eavesdropping outside, his blood boiled even more.

“That’s awesome!” Ye Yan and a few others who had actually faced the Beiting people at the border were even more excited.

Ye Yan really couldn’t help it and jumped out on his own initiative.

“Grandfather! It was them, the envoys from Beiting, who first kidnapped the women of our Great Zhou and tried to commit indecent acts! These envoys from Beiting are shameless!”

Upon hearing this, Emperor Jingwen’s originally calm expression suddenly turned gloomy.

For a moment, the memory that he had deliberately forgotten flashed before his eyes again.

Emperor Jingwen was once again reminded of the unbearable past of more than 20 years ago.

After the New Year’s Eve banquet, Emperor Jingwen, who was forced to toast the envoy from Beiting, was drunk for three days. Whether it was because he was drunk or because he was discouraged, he lay in bed for three days before he could barely get up. When he woke up, he heard the news that Princess Daiyuan had hanged herself two days ago.

Emperor Jingwen did not dare to investigate further, but how could he not know what had happened?

Once or twice, even a saint would go crazy.

“Huyan Jue, you Beiting people are really going too far!” Emperor Jingwen said this almost with gritted teeth.

When Huyan Jue heard the Emperor of the Great Zhou bring up this matter on his own initiative, his heart immediately skipped a beat.

Huyan Jue was not stupid, and he naturally knew that when someone took the initiative to reveal his scars, it was either a complete peace agreement or the beginning of revenge.

As expected, the next moment, Hu Yanjue heard Emperor Jingwen speak from above –

“Come here, kill all the Beiting guards in the inn today, don’t leave any alive.”

Emperor Jingwen has now completely broken off relations with Huyan Jue.

Good man, how come my cheap dad is even angrier than me after hearing this?

Ye Shuo was stunned.

Hu Yanjue was horrified: “Emperor Zhou!”

Hu Yanjue wanted to say something else, but he saw Emperor Jingwen looking back at him. What kind of look was that…

Almost instantly, all the hairs on Huyan Jue’s body stood up.

Emperor Jingwen spoke each word with emphasis: “Go back and tell your Wolf King that my Great Zhou does not intend to return those three cities. I do not intend to apologize to the Wolf King for what happened today, and I will not let my son admit his mistakes. If the Wolf King is dissatisfied, I will not hesitate to fight with Beiting!”

The Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty was going to take real action!

When Emperor Jingwen gave the order, all parties responded so quickly that the commander-in-chief returned in just half an hour.

All the Beiting guards in the posthouse were killed, and no one survived.

Huyan Jue’s feet seemed to be nailed to the ground and suddenly he was unable to move.

He never imagined that when they came in the past, even the noble princess had to be toyed with by them, but now, it was just a little mute girl, nameless and without a surname, but she attracted such a thunder.

When Emperor Jingwen’s eyes fell on Huyan Jue, Huyan Jue immediately broke out in a sweat.

Huyan Jue almost fled from the palace.

After so many years, Emperor Jingwen finally avenged himself and Princess Daiyuan.

But although she was still alive, Princess Daiyuan would never know these things again.

Emperor Jingwen couldn’t tell what he was feeling. It was a complicated feeling, but at the same time, he felt relieved as if a huge stone had been lifted off his shoulders.

Ye Shuo tightened his fingers, took a deep breath, and took the opportunity to speak: “Father, why don’t we knock Bei Ting down in one go.”

Or maybe…

“How about simply incorporating the territory of Beiting into our Great Zhou?”

This was the first time that Ye Shuo expressed an ambition that was inconsistent with his usual image.

No one knew how nervous he was at this moment.

Ye Shuo knew that the conflicts among his brothers could not be reconciled and their ambitions could not be eliminated.

The cake is so small, what should we do if there is not enough to share? If we make the cake bigger, maybe there is still hope.

Ye Shuo said quickly: “There is also the State of Chen. Doesn’t the emperor want to unify the State of Chen and Beiting together? By then, the world will only have our Great Zhou family, and there will be no need to fight anymore.”

Emperor Jingwen, who had already sat down again, did not notice the urgency in his son’s eyes. After hearing this, he immediately laughed: “The Great Zhou, Chen and Beiting have been like this since ancient times. How easy is it to unify them?”

It’s not that no one had tried before, but the price they paid was so great that in the end they were unable to do so and even their own dynasties were overthrown.

Many people tried, but none of them succeeded. As time went by, no one tried this idea anymore.

Perhaps it was God’s will that this land was naturally meant to be three countries.

Just like in modern times, if someone says they want to unify the world, they will definitely be regarded as a joke by all mankind.

Only after the entire Blue Star is unified will this joke no longer be a joke.

Before this is done, no one knows that this method is feasible.

Emperor Jingwen was born and raised here, so it was extremely difficult for him to think about unifying the Three Kingdoms.

When Ye Shuo heard this, his heart suddenly turned cold.

But at this time, Ye Shuo still refused to give up: “What if? What if it works?”

“Alright!” Emperor Jingwen couldn’t help but raise his tone, feeling a little annoyed by his own son’s pestering.

“It’s okay to say such naive words once, but don’t mention them again in the future, or you’ll make a fool of yourself.”

Ye Shuo opened his mouth, but suddenly couldn’t speak.

Seeing this, the eldest prince raised his eyebrows and joked, “Ninth brother is quite ambitious. He has just killed two insignificant pawns, and he already wants to unify the world.”

The eldest prince didn’t mean anything else, he just felt that his thinking was moving too fast. At this rate, he would probably go to the sky to pick the sun tomorrow.

The eldest prince really kept bringing up things that were not relevant to the topic. Ye Shuo had finally forgotten about this matter, but when he brought it up, his nose suddenly started working again. Especially since he was covered in blood, he couldn’t ignore it even if he wanted to.

Even if those two people are nothing, this is still the blood of living people…

Ye Shuo’s face suddenly turned pale, and he didn’t care where he was. He bent down in front of Emperor Jingwen and the eldest prince and said, “Ugh—”

Caught off guard, the eldest prince’s expression froze.
