Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

No, it should be said that he actually called the current emperor a brother!

The governor of Liangzhou suddenly felt a little weak in the knees.

After the visitor left, the governor of Liangzhou tried hard to recall whether he had done anything offensive. It seemed that he probably hadn’t…

On the other side, the Wei family mansion in Liangzhou City——

Since the Imperial Concubine’s surname was Wei, when Ye Shuo built this house he naturally named it Wei Mansion, which could be considered the house Ye Shuo bought for his mother.

Built in a hurry, the Wei residence is not particularly large, but it is comfortable. Recently, due to the rampant plague outside, the Royal Concubine has been forced to stay at home, but with caring maids like Su Yue, as well as the beautiful lady and Sixth Master, two women of similar age, around her, life is not so lonely.

Although not many people in Liangzhou City knew the identities of the Imperial Concubine Dowager, seeing how the governor of Liangzhou treated them, the wealthy merchants and gentry in Liangzhou City had some guesses in their minds. Knowing that they were either rich or noble, no one was so blind as to come and cause trouble.

Therefore, the Imperial Concubine Dowager can live as comfortably as she wants here.

When the person who delivered the message arrived, the Imperial Concubine Dowager was holding little Dingning and listening with great interest to the woman in front of her talking about all kinds of interesting things in the martial arts world.

This woman was none other than Madam Lu, who was known in the martial arts world as the Wind-killing Blade and was also one of the good friends of the beautiful woman back then.

To avoid disaster, Madam Lu came to Liangzhou City, but accidentally ran into her old friend. She was so happy that she stayed here for a few days.

Although the news of Miss Yao marrying into the royal family had caused a lot of buzz, even people in the martial arts world didn’t know much about Miss Yao’s background, not to mention who her master was. Therefore, Madam Lu didn’t know that the noble lady sitting in front of her was the imperial concubine who was famous in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

At first, Madam Lu wondered how her good friend, who she hadn’t seen for several years, could have gotten to know such a powerless woman from a secluded house. But after a few days of getting along with her, Madam Lu discovered that although this lady was not young, she still had the innocence of a child who was ignorant of the world. She was extremely curious about everything, especially about the world of martial arts. She looked full of yearning and it was obvious that she had never suffered much.

Under the repeated questioning of the noble lady, Madam Lu got excited and told her so much.

Madam Lu was eloquent and very talkative. Even the royal concubine was seduced by her and developed a yearning for the world she talked about.

In addition, Jianjian had been wandering outside for a long time and was unwilling to go home, so the Imperial Concubine couldn’t help but look at the beautiful woman beside her.

If there is a chance, she would also like to see it.

But soon, a knock on the door broke the imperial concubine’s fantasy.

Afterwards, the Imperial Noble Consort Dowager learned that her son was going to be the Emperor, and that she did not even have to wait for the enthronement as she was now a foregone conclusion that she was the Empress Dowager.

When she first saw the man, the beautiful woman was very alert seeing the black armoured uniform he was wearing. After all, two days ago a suspicious person tried to sneak into the Wei Mansion, but fortunately he was discovered by them in time and no noise was made.

I thought this time they were targeting the Imperial Concubine and Dingning, but… what is this?

Madam Lu’s voice also stopped abruptly. Wait, what did I hear?

However, the reaction of the Imperial Concubine next to her was even greater than hers. Her scream almost scared little Dingning.

“What? Who are you talking about?”

The visitor sweated and said again: “The emperor ascended the throne ten days ago. When the plague subsides a little, you will be welcomed back to the capital.” ʀÄő฿Ë

For a moment, the Imperial Concubine Dowager thought she had heard it wrong. Since her son turned ten years old, she had never had such an idea again.

After finally getting out, it’s only been a short while and I have to go back again.

The Royal Concubine Dowager suddenly felt an endless amount of complexity in her heart.

Just when Madam Lu was stunned and didn’t know how to react, she saw the noble lady in front of her fall back into the chair, and then… started crying.

Madam Lu: ???

The beautiful woman almost didn’t react. After she came to her senses, she hurried to help her: “Isn’t this a good thing? Why are you crying?”

The Imperial Concubine didn’t want to do it, but she couldn’t help it.

“At first, I was so hopeful that he would become successful, but in the end, he failed to do so. Later, I finally managed to break free from it and had a few happy days, but now they are urging me to go back. Isn’t this a joke?”

The Imperial Concubine Dowager had just tasted a little of the sweetness of freedom, but it was suddenly severed. How could she bear it?

And then there is…

“Under the current circumstances, how can Shuo’er bear such a heavy burden!”

Now that both emperors are gone and there’s a plague raging outside, if things go wrong her son’s life might not be saved. How can the Imperial Concubine not cry?

The Imperial Concubine Dowager felt that her son must have been deceived by that group of court officials and royal family members.

“My Shuo’er…”

Hearing the noise, the rest of Huo Tianyi and others also walked out of the house next door. As soon as they arrived at Wei’s house, they heard about this and fell silent.

If the disciple’s husband becomes the emperor of the Great Zhou, then wouldn’t their disciple be the empress?

Seeing Huo Tianyi asking this question, the black-armoured guard hurriedly said, “The coronation ceremony and the queen coronation ceremony will be held on the same day.”

In other words, Zhier is undoubtedly the queen now.

Ha, it seems that I really found a “treasure” back then. Huo Tianyi felt that there might be a reason why he was so unlucky in the first half of his life.

A person only has so much luck in his life, and his luck might have been used up when he picked up the young man and brought him back to the valley.

Mei Yingzhuo stopped for a while, then turned and left.  

Huo Tianyi reacted and blurted out: “What are you going to do?”

Mei Yingzhuo took a deep breath and said unhappily, “What else can you do besides researching a cure for the plague?”

There have been queens of commoner origin in the past, but it was always more difficult for her to become a queen than for women of status, background and family. Now Zhi’er is already the queen, and the matter is a foregone conclusion. As her master, Mei Yingzhuo naturally hopes that her path to becoming a queen will be smoother and more stable.

Originally, the plague was a matter of the imperial court, but now it had inexplicably become his own family matter, and Mei Yingzhuo could not help but take it seriously.

Even Madam Lu, who was standing by, spoke up belatedly: “Uh…is there anything I can help you with?”

However, his ascension to the throne brought joy to some and sorrow to others.

Compared to the Wei residence, Mrs. Zhen, who was also in Liangzhou, received her son’s body.

Back when she was in the East Palace, the Crown Princess, now Madam Zhen, often spoke up for Ye Shuo. What’s more, it was Madam Zhen who made it possible for Ye Xun to be so close to Ye Shuo.

Looking at it now, everything has changed.

The moment she saw Ye Xun’s body, Mrs. Zhen, who had been working hard for many years, could no longer hold back, and a fishy-sweet smell suddenly surged in her throat.

If it weren’t for the timely support of the former crown prince’s concubine next to her, Madam Zhen almost fell to the ground.

“lady!”

Madam Zhen barely came back to her senses and looked at the corpse of General Yun Hui beside her. What else did Madam Zhen not understand?

When Madam Zhen was the Crown Prince’s consort, the Crown Prince never told her about the affairs in the court, but as the Crown Prince’s bedside companion, how could Madam Zhen not notice anything?

Xun’er, after all, followed the Crown Prince’s old path, and even went further and deeper than the Crown Prince.

As early as when Xun’er refused to come to Liangzhou, Madam Zhen knew that this day would come sooner or later. But Madam Zhen still held on and asked, “What crime did the prince commit?”

The man opened his mouth and finally uttered a few words: “Conspiracy for treason, poisoning the previous emperor, assassinating the new emperor.”

No blame, no blame…

Mrs. Zhen didn’t say anything, she just asked someone to unload the coffins of the two men and told them to leave.

Over the years, the concubines and the former prince’s children have all received the favour of Madam Zhen. If they put themselves in her shoes, they would go crazy if their children ended up like this.

Therefore, the concubine couldn’t help but say: “Your Majesty, this is too inhumane…” After all, he is still his nephew…

However, before the other party could finish his words, he was interrupted by Mrs. Zhen.

“Shut up! Stop talking nonsense!”

Madam Zhen took a deep breath and said, “Don’t forget how we were able to stay alive and live such a comfortable life.”

“Everything is Xun’er’s own fault.”

But having said that, Ye Xun is still Mrs. Zhen’s biological son no matter what.

Mrs. Zhen openly asked someone to find a vacant lot outside the city to bury him hastily, but secretly, she gave a lot of silver and asked someone to find a Feng Shui good place for Ye Xun.

After everything was done, Mrs. Zhen knew it was time to leave.

The new emperor was merciful and did not implicate them, but they had to be tactful. A few days later, the vendors around felt that the huge Gu Mansion had suddenly become extremely quiet. When someone couldn’t help but peek inside through the crack in the door, they found that the entire Gu Mansion had been deserted for a long time.

At this point, the lineage of the former prince completely disappeared.

Yesterday’s old friends are finally drifting away.

Ye Shuo, who was far away in Shangjing, heard the news. After a moment of silence, he waved his hand and told the person to leave.

Now he has more important things to do.

It has been nearly half a month since Ye Shuo ascended the throne. It is true that Yao Zhi was a chivalrous woman in the past, but she was inevitably full of limitations. Now that she has suddenly become the queen, the people of the world have suddenly become her responsibility.

Although Yao Zhi was not quite used to it, her personality made it impossible for her to ignore it. Now she was leading a group of imperial doctors to study a prescription for treating the plague.

As for the plague, it was a natural disaster that could not be controlled. All Ye Shuo could do was to try his best to avoid man-made disasters.

Because of Yao Zhi’s relationship, Ye Shuo also received a lot of news from people in the underworld, from all over the place, most of which were things that local officials had never reported.

Yao Zhi, the queen who came from the underworld, actually played a miraculous role at this time.

The reason why the plague is so rampant is closely related to the people below who are eager to keep their positions.

Ye Shuo originally wanted to take a trip to Prince Ding’s Mansion, but then he suddenly remembered that he seemed to be the emperor now.

Ye Shuo immediately ordered people to summon Prince Ding and Ye Yan and others into the palace.

Prince Ding was just wondering what the emperor wanted them to do. Just as he was thinking, he heard the young man above him say, “Yan’er, I see you don’t have anything to do recently, so go help the emperor’s uncle kill a few people.”

Seeing him speak so easily, for a moment, Prince Ding thought he was calling his sons to have lunch together.

Ye Yan and his companions were straightforward and asked in the same manner: “May I ask Your Majesty, who should be killed?”

Prince Ding: “…………”
