Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Chapter 302: Willfulness



The moment he took the mercury mirror in his hand, the old master was immediately shocked. What a clear reflection!

The old master had only seen bronze mirrors in his life, how could he have seen such a thing? He could not help but burst into surprise.

However, before the old man could take a closer look, Madam Zhen snatched the mirror away and said, “This is what the emperor gave me last time. That one is yours. Go and look at yours.”

Madam Zhen pointed to the remaining pair of reading glasses.

When someone came to the palace today, the young eunuch said that one of the things was for her. Madam Zhen went forward to check it out and immediately fell in love with it.

“The emperor said that this thing is very fragile and can’t withstand your tossing and turning.”

The old master had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and look at the two transparent objects that looked like crystals on the side.

When the old tutor learned that this thing was called reading glasses and could make originally blurry eyes clear, he was stunned.

The old tutor is very old. No matter how well he takes care of himself, all old age diseases will still come to him one after another. His teeth are fine, but his eyes are getting worse day by day.

But this kind of thing has not happened for a day or two. In the past two or three years, the old master has long been accustomed to it. But habits are habits, and who doesn’t want to return to normal?

The only question is, can such a small thing work?

According to the instructions in the letter, the old master fumbled to put the glasses on his nose little by little, and then opened his eyes. He was immediately shocked by the scene in front of him.

Wow, it’s so clear! Next time I read a book, I won’t need someone to read it to me.

The old tutor was already very old, but now he looked at it over and over again, as if he had got some new toy, taking it off and putting it on again. After a while, he felt a little dizzy and dared not move anymore.

Like Xing Yucheng, the old tutor also subconsciously thought that this thing must be very expensive since it was so transparent, so when he went to sleep, he specially found a wooden box to put it in, for fear that it would be bumped.

“If you ask me, the fate between people is really mysterious.” Who could have thought that the prince that her husband most favored died halfway, and her husband resigned from his official position because of this, and later it was the prince that her husband least favored who became the emperor, and he ended up becoming the imperial tutor. Just thinking about it, Madam Zhen felt like she was dreaming.

Who says it isn’t…

The old tutor thought the same thing in the darkness, especially since his own grandson died at the hands of his student.

When you count it all, it’s nothing but a debt of sin.

Thinking of this, the old couple felt a little sad. However, since their daughter didn’t ask them to pursue the matter further, there was really nothing more to say about this matter.

The old tutor and Madam Zhen said no more and fell into a deep sleep.

The next morning, the old tutor thought that the glasses might be useful, so he fastened the silver chain next to the glasses to the glasses, hung them in front of his chest, and then went to court.

The other side.

Ye Shuo followed the sound and came to a hall. According to Xiaoluzi, little Dingning now lived here. This hall was the closest to the Queen Mother Wei’s bedroom. Before, Yao Zhi was busy with government affairs, so it was basically Queen Mother Wei who took care of her and the second master raised her.

The second master is a female relative, and she is the only one in the family. Besides, given her status, it doesn’t matter if she lives in the palace permanently.

The only voices of opposition before have now been suppressed by Yao Zhi.

Even from a distance, Ye Shuo could still hear the sound of his second master and his mother teasing the child.

“Little Dingning, come quickly, come to your grandmother.” Dingning was born under the watchful eyes of Empress Dowager Wei herself. Since her son and daughter-in-law were busy, she had been raising him by her side ever since, so naturally their relationship was special. âΝβĚS

When Ye Shuo got closer, he saw a little child wearing tiger-head shoes, staggering after two adults.

Queen Mother Wei had been unproductive since childhood and had poor physical strength and power. Although she has gotten better in recent years due to running around outside, she is almost fifty years old after all, and she felt tired after playing with Dingning for a while.

The second master was used to this and just asked her to sit aside and rest, while she continued to train the little princess to walk.

The little princess is now over one year old. She is learning to walk and is always wobbly and unsteady. The little princess got anxious and tripped over her left foot. She was about to fall. The second master subconsciously reached out for her hand, but what she didn’t expect was that someone got there first and picked the little princess up from the ground.

The second master was startled at first, then he looked up and saw that it was his disciple’s husband who had come.

Ye Shuo loved playing with children since he was young, and he had already mastered the technique of holding a child to perfection. But now it was different from the others. As soon as little Dingning fell into his arms, Ye Shuo, who remained calm in front of so many people in Beiting, couldn’t control his heart and started beating wildly.

Ye Shuo lived for nearly thirty years in his previous life without having any children, so he subconsciously thought that the so-called blood relationship was just fabricated by outsiders. But now he knows that it was all true.

Ye Shuo had not seen Dingning since she was born. Two months ago, he was in a hurry to go to the war, and he only saw her sleeping. Strictly speaking, today was the first time the father and daughter met.

Ye Shuo seemed calm, and when Xiao Dingning looked over, probably no one knew how nervous he was at the moment. However, if you listened carefully, you could still hear that his voice was a little hoarse than usual.

“Little Dingning, call me daddy.”

Queen Mother Wei seemed to have noticed something. She pulled the beautiful woman to sit down and watched the scene leisurely.

This kid has been living a dissolute life for so many years, and now he has finally met his nemesis. It’s really a changing world, you can’t help but believe it.

Queen Mother Wei couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

“…”

Ye Shuo didn’t bother to look at his mother. All his attention was now on his daughter who looked very nervous.

Little Dingning only felt a flash before his eyes, and then he was picked up by someone.  

Although Ye Shuo knew that this was his daughter, the man in front of him was extremely unfamiliar to little Dingning. Subconsciously, she put her two small hands on Ye Shuo’s shoulders and shook her head continuously, looking very resistant.

“Little Dingning, it’s daddy.”

The child was young and could not understand what the adults said, but Ye Shuo’s voice was too nice and his actions were extremely gentle. In addition, the two people closest to her did not object. Gradually, after they became a little familiar with each other, little Dingning stopped struggling.

Ye Shuo grabbed a palm-sized wooden ball from the ground at the right time, and then kept throwing it. After attracting all of Xiao Dingning’s attention, she completely forgot who was holding her.

Queen Mother Wei’s smile stiffened slightly. Not seeing the scene she wanted to see, she suddenly felt it was very boring.

I have forgotten that my son is best at coaxing children.

However, in just one afternoon, Ye Shuo coaxed little Dingning into calling him daddy.

“…Your body is almost recovered.” Looking at the little princess sleeping soundly in Ye Shuo’s arms, Queen Mother Wei couldn’t help but pick up the tea and took a sip leisurely.

“It’s okay. Since I’ve been staying with Azhi every night, I don’t have nightmares all night long like before.” Especially after Yao Zhi drew two Taoist talismans for him, maybe it was a psychological effect, but Ye Shuo slept more soundly.

Looking at her son who was proud of it instead of ashamed, Queen Dowager Wei suddenly didn’t know what to say.

“You, you are so old, and you have no shame.”

Ye Shuo didn’t take it seriously. When the time was almost up, Ye Shuo put Ding Ning in his arms and said, “Ding Ning, sleep at my place tonight.”

After finally seeing his daughter, Ye Shuo just couldn’t let her go.

Queen Mother Wei was just about to say that this was against the rules, but then she saw her son pat his butt and leave.

…Forget it, when did he ever talk about rules?

He took the child away, which saved me a lot of trouble.

“Take me with you tomorrow and let’s go for a walk outside.” Since her son went to the battlefield, the Queen Mother Wei had been worried all day long, unable to eat or sleep at night. She had even kneeled on the cushion in the small Buddhist temple at the back of her palace until it was broken. Now that her son has returned safely, the Queen Mother Wei can finally feel at ease.

After calming down, Queen Dowager Wei’s mind began to waver.

How could the Second Master not know what she was thinking? She agreed without thinking.

In addition to Queen Mother Wei and the others, Yao Zhi was also very tired recently. When Ye Shuo carried Ding Ning back to Chengming Palace, Yao Zhi was still asleep.

Another half an hour later, Yao Zhi woke up slowly. When she walked out, she saw the young man holding his daughter and feeding her.

The meat and liver were mashed into a paste, and the little princess was sitting on the emperor’s lap. This scene was so incredible that all the palace servants, including Xiao Luzi, lowered their heads and dared not look at it a second time.

Little Dingning was still young and could hardly sit still. She would lose her temper from time to time, or look elsewhere or try to grab the dishes and chopsticks on the table. Ye Shuo was not tired of it and scraped the meat paste with a spoon and fed it to her little by little.

If the little princess really went too far, Ye Shuo would pat her hands and tell her not to do that.

Yao Zhi, who was standing by, was amazed and thought that even if it were her, she probably wouldn’t have such good patience.

I thought it was good enough that the young man fed his daughter himself, but I didn’t expect that he would have to sleep with his daughter at night.

Yao Zhi had no objection to this. When he was not around, Yao Zhi would occasionally sleep with her daughter. However, she always felt that he, who grew up in the palace, should not do this.

As if seeing Yao Zhi’s confusion, Ye Shuo couldn’t help but say: “When I was little, I liked the three of us lying on the same bed the most.”

Of course, it would be better if he didn’t sleep in the middle as a child, because… sleeping in the middle is really hot…

Yao Zhi didn’t even know that he had such a wish, but the Queen Mother Wei and the late Emperor… I’m afraid that will never happen.

And what Ye Shuo was talking about was naturally not about his mother and father in this life.

Ye Shuo did not explain. He lifted the quilt and stuffed little Dingning in. When little Dingning came to her senses, she was surrounded by her father and mother.

Little Dingning blinked his eyes, looking confused and dizzy.

As for the historians outside, their pens are almost broken.

The next morning, Ye Shuo packed up and prepared to go to court, but unexpectedly, Ding Ning had a premonition of something and grabbed his sleeve.

“Dad…Daddy…”

Yao Zhi couldn’t help but feel jealous. It had only been one day, and her daughter was already so clingy to him. What a heartless little thing.

Then Yao Zhi spoke up: “You go to court first, I will take care of my daughter–“

However, before Yao Zhi could finish her words, she saw the young man easily pick up her daughter.

After reacting, Yao Zhi’s eyes suddenly widened: “You don’t think…Oh my God, He Xiang and the others will go crazy, right?”

“What’s the big deal?” Ye Shuo didn’t care.

Yao Zhi could see that he really didn’t care.

Just like that, Yao Zhi watched the two of them, one big and one small, leave. She suddenly felt that He Xiang and the others were quite pitiful for encountering such a willful emperor…
