Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Chapter 165: Liangzhou



Perhaps it was because of the little tiger following him, Ye Shuo and his group attracted a lot of attention along the way.

Unlike the Ninth Prince who had been pampered since childhood, Xiao Luzi became alert almost subconsciously.

He originally thought that His Highness’s ostentatiousness would surely attract someone with ulterior motives, so he was very careful in every aspect. However, he found that, hmm, there didn’t seem to be anyone so foolish as to target them.

But what Xiao Luzi didn’t know was that it wasn’t that no one had bad intentions, but that Ye Shuo solved it secretly.

Just like when they were staying at the inn on the first night, because the next city was still some distance away, they had to settle for the next best thing and choose to complain to the small inn in the town. Then, just after midnight, Ye Shuo clearly heard the sound of a lock being pried open outside.

However, with the little white tiger around, the five senses of wild animals are much more sensitive than humans. When Ye Shuo heard the little white tiger’s growl, he woke up immediately.

He picked up the chopsticks and threw them out. After that, the people outside fell silent. It was obvious that they understood that this young man was not easy to mess with and they had met a tough guy.

When Ye Shuo opened the door, apart from the chopstick stuck in the opposite wall, there were only messy footprints.

Whether it was Ye Shuo himself, the little white tiger, or the fat and strong Qingfeng with shiny fur, they all made people very greedy.

Along the way, Ye Shuo basically encountered all kinds of situations.

There were people stealing horses, tigers, and even people, and all kinds of methods were used in an endless stream.

After all, Ye Shuo was not omnipotent, and sometimes he would fall into the trap, but fortunately he reacted in time and was not tricked. It was just that he would be in a very embarrassing situation occasionally. Ye Shuo had smelled the drug twice. If the little white tiger had not reminded him in time, he would probably have fallen asleep.

Later on, Ye Shuo had evolved to the point where he would stare at the chef cooking, and would not touch the food or water on the table even if he left for a short while.

In ancient times, living in peace without anyone to protect you was indeed much more difficult than it is today.

And along the way, Ye Shuo was also growing rapidly.

He has a strong learning ability and his previous disadvantages were due to his lack of experience. Now that he has seen it, he has gradually become proficient.

When passing by a certain city, it happened to be the solar term and the city was extremely lively. Ye Shuo had just entered the city. The black horse, the white tiger, and the dazzlingly handsome young man, this combination was extremely eye-catching.

In addition, they were both obviously strangers, so they would naturally be noticed by those who were interested.

To be able to raise horses so well, and with this young man’s demeanour and bearing, he must have been born into a wealthy family.

The young man is so ignorant of the ways of the world that he doesn’t even know how to restrain himself. He parades around like this, it’s almost as if the word “fat sheep” was written all over his face.

As if he didn’t notice the unusual things around him, Ye Shuo kept comforting the somewhat restless little white tiger.

Although the little white tiger has always been hanging out with people, this is the first time it has seen such a lively environment. Due to its nature as a wild beast, it must have subconsciously wanted to be on guard, and its aggressiveness was stronger than usual.

Fortunately, it is only five months old. If it had grown a little bigger, Ye Shuo would not have dared to take it out again, at least not to a crowded place.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, a man with ordinary appearance passed by Ye Shuo.

Xiao Luzi watched helplessly as the other party tried to steal the purse of His Highness the Ninth Prince but failed, and his own purse from his waist was touched by His Highness instead.

Oh my God, if His Majesty saw this scene, he would probably faint.

This, this, this, Your Highness has only been out for a short time and he has already learned bad things!

Ye Shuo had been robbed once before, but fortunately the thief didn’t know kung fu, so he caught up with him and beat him up before he got his money bag back. How could Ye Shuo make the same mistake again?

He used force to intimidate the other party, and he actually learned something from it.

Now, it comes in handy.

The man walked a long way before he realised something was wrong. He felt like something was missing around his waist. He subconsciously touched it, but as expected, he found nothing.

When I looked back again, I saw the young man holding his purse and smiling at me.

The man immediately realised that he had fallen into trouble. Just as he was about to slander the other party as usual, Ye Shuo had already taken the lead and opened the purse in his hand.

Maybe because he left in a hurry and didn’t have time to deal with it, the purse was only covered with another layer on the outside and another layer inside.

Judging from the fabric used for the inner layer, it is obviously not something for men.

Then Ye Shuo asked, “Whose purse is it? Who lost it?”

Upon hearing this, the people around immediately started checking their pockets. The man knew that he could not do anything, so he quickly slipped away in shame.

Then, Ye Shuo met the first owner who came to claim the lost item.

The man thought Ye Shuo would give it to him immediately because he saw that he was young and dressed like a nobleman. However, he actually asked him what was inside and how much money was in it.

The young man’s expression immediately became awkward.

“Okay, you move aside first. Come on, next one!”

In this way, Ye Shuo finally returned the purse to its real owner as he wished.

Looking at the Ninth Prince who was already feeling very comfortable in his situation, Xiao Luzi’s mood was extremely complicated.

The two of them hurried along like this, and after almost a month, they finally arrived in Liangzhou.

When he first arrived in Liangzhou, Ye Shuo clearly felt that the humidity of the surrounding air was different from that of Shangjing. It was fine and moist, with water surrounding it. Ye Shuo led the horse and looked at the small bridge and flowing water in front of him. Compared with Shangjing, it was less solemn and more tender and gentle.

Although Liangzhou is not as noble as Shangjing, it is extremely rich. There are many merchants here and the economic level is relatively high, so the safety is naturally better than other places passed by.

Ye Shuo immediately decided to stay here.

If you want to settle down here, how can you not have a place to stay?

When Xiao Luzi saw that Ye Shuo spent tens of thousands of taels of silver to buy an old house in Liangzhou City without blinking an eye, Xiao Luzi was heartbroken.

Although Xiao Luzi didn’t know how much silver the prince had brought out, he knew that if he lived off his savings, he would eventually become penniless.

This place is not like the capital. Without the subsidies from the emperor’s concubine and the old Duke Zhen, Xiao Luzi has even imagined the scene of himself and his master sleeping on the streets.

Although Ye Shuo would not go hungry because of these mere tens of thousands of taels of silver, after all, Beiting was sending him silver continuously, but he would not really do nothing.

As a person, you have to find something to do, otherwise you will be useless, right?

Especially along the way, Ye Shuo saw so many businessmen in fancy clothes, such fat sheep, it would be a pity not to slaughter them.

Gradually, several thoughts flashed through Ye Shuo’s mind.

The other side.

Emperor Jingwen initially thought that his son had never suffered much since he was a child, so how could he get along so easily outside? He probably thought that he would cry and shout to come back soon.

Emperor Jingwen had even decided that he must teach him a lesson when the time comes.

However, he waited for a month.

Emperor Jingwen soon received news that his son had settled in Liangzhou.

The little bastard really went alone with one horse, and at most a little eunuch who was of no use other than serving, and they travelled through mountains and rivers and finally reached Liangzhou in the south.

Emperor Jingwen didn’t know what to say for a moment.

If he had put a bit of this energy into serious matters, he probably wouldn’t be in this state now.

Emperor Jingwen originally wanted to find out what the little bastard was going to do next, but not long after, Emperor Jingwen no longer cared about him.

About half a year later, Emperor Jingwen received a secret memorial.

It’s about the prince.

After reading all the content above, Emperor Jingwen couldn’t help but look pale.

Emperor Jingwen could never have imagined that his most beloved son would do such a thing.

“Selling official positions and titles, exploiting the people, and forming cliques for personal gain.” Each and every one of them is shocking.

Emperor Jingwen suddenly thought of the quarrel between the crown prince and his teacher more than half a year ago. He didn’t think much of it at the time, but now thinking about it, it seems that it was a foreshadowing.

Emperor Jingwen was not unaware of the open and covert struggles between his eldest son and the crown prince, he just couldn’t believe that the crown prince had no confidence in his father.

It is really disappointing that you can’t keep your cool.

For a ruler, judgement is particularly important. He must know what is feasible and what is not.

It is really stupid to insist on doing it even though you know it is a dead end!

Emperor Jingwen’s hands were shaking with anger.

However, this was his most beloved son, the crown prince whom he had placed high hopes on since he was young. Emperor Jingwen naturally wanted him to turn back in time before a disaster occurred.

So at the morning court session the next day, Emperor Jingwen scolded the prince mercilessly in front of all the civil and military officials in the court.

Since the day he was appointed as the crown prince, the prince has never been as embarrassed as he is today.
