Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Chapter 125: Welcoming



On the contrary, because he has not yet been engaged, there are very few people in the prince’s mansion, so he seems even more lonely and deserted.

The Sixth Prince used to think that his Ninth Brother was noisy and never had a moment of rest. He was always causing trouble or something else, and the entire Qiuwu Palace was always in a state of chaos.

The Sixth Prince used to be impatient, always thinking that everything would be fine once he got out, and that he wouldn’t have to endure all this once he got out.

Now that he had really come out, the Sixth Prince felt deserted instead.

Think about it, I really am…

The Sixth Prince couldn’t help but laugh.

But the Sixth Prince was the Sixth Prince after all, and he did not allow this weak mood to last long. Or rather, he just took a nap, and by the time he went to court on the first day, he had returned to normal.

Everyone else has a mother, but he doesn’t, so there will always be no one behind him.

There may be people like Xiaojiu and Guifei appearing in the middle, but in the end, it will not last long.

The imperial concubine has Xiaojiu as her son, and no matter what, I will never become her son.

Xiaojiu, the little princess, and the imperial concubine, the three of them are a family. The Sixth Prince felt that he must be strong so that he could walk the next path without fear.

And now that he has finally come into contact with court affairs, a new journey has slowly come into view.

Although Emperor Jingwen had a mediocre feeling towards this son, he also knew that the Sixth Prince was outstanding, so Emperor Jingwen did not treat him unfairly in this regard. As soon as he entered the court, Emperor Jingwen directly let him take the assignment of the Ministry of Personnel.

The Ministry of Personnel was in charge of the appointment, dismissal, imperial examinations, promotion, demotion, transfer, honors, etc. of all civil officials in the Zhou Dynasty, and its responsibilities were quite heavy.

Although Emperor Jingwen only asked him to participate instead of being in charge, it was also a sign of his great importance.

As the saying goes, hard work pays off. Emperor Jingwen naturally noticed the efforts of the Sixth Prince.

The Sixth Prince was extremely ambitious, but he also knew that this matter could not be rushed, so after entering the Ministry of Personnel, he did not rush to show his abilities. Instead, after he had figured out the operating rules of the Ministry of Personnel, he gradually began to relax.

Emperor Jingwen saw all of this and felt very satisfied.

It can be said that over the years, the imperial concubine only provided the Sixth Prince with basic things such as food and drink, and the rest depended entirely on the Sixth Prince’s own efforts.

Not long after, Ye Shuo received the news that the Sixth Prince was doing very well in the Ministry of Personnel following the Fourth Prince.

As expected, this guy has been dishonest since he was a child, and he is indeed suitable for a place like officialdom.

Look, it hasn’t been long since then and he’s already been able to get the hang of it smoothly. It’s hard to deny his talent.

Ye Shuo sighed in his heart, but soon he got back into the game with Jian Jian.

Of course, this time it was not hide-and-seek. Jianjian would never play hide-and-seek with him. This time it was shuttlecock kicking, to see who could kick the most.

The shuttlecock is made of copper coins and chicken feathers, especially the tail feathers from the back of a rooster. It is so beautiful.

But the ending was not unexpected and was no better than hide-and-seek.

How could Jianjian, a kid, have the speed to react to Ye Shuo’s?

After a while, she was so angry that she started to howl.

Looking from the house into the yard, the prince couldn’t help but laugh: “After so many years, Xiaojiu still has the mentality of a child.”

In the past, he bullied his son, but now that Xiaojiu has a younger sister, he has started bullying his own sister.

It cannot be said that it has grown, it can only be said that it has become worse and more excessive.

“Who said it wasn’t?” The Taifu was also convinced. He had seen naughty children, but this was the only one who was naughty and made no progress.

It seems like the Ninth Prince’s character is ingrained in his bones, and he probably won’t be able to change it in this lifetime.

Now, the Grand Tutor depends on the steady little princess to keep him alive. The existence of the little princess makes the Grand Tutor no longer doubt whether his level is enough to become a teacher.

At first, the Grand Tutor was not very willing to teach the little princess, but now that the Ninth Prince is here to take care of the little princess, the Grand Tutor feels at ease.

At least there is someone who is willing to learn, proving that I am not talking to a cow.

Seeing that the Grand Tutor had endless things to say when he mentioned Xiaojiu, the Prince hesitated to speak. In fact, this was not what he wanted to say.

The Grand Tutor then realised that now was not the time to talk about this.

The Master even recovered from his complaining state.

“Your Highness, I heard that the eldest prince will be back soon?”

“Yes.” The prince’s information is more accurate than that of the tutor.

“It will arrive in ten days at the latest.”

The eldest prince informed his father of the news two months ago, and his father agreed.

Of course, the prince was not concerned about these things. Instead, the reason why the eldest prince came back was because he won the battle with Beiting…

Not only did they win, but they won a complete victory. There has been very little record of this since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Even when the Duke of Zhen led the troops, there were only one or two such times.

The people of Beiting have always been tough, so winning is extremely difficult. When the previous emperor was in power, the Great Zhou even lost seven cities in a row and finally took them back with great difficulty.

The eldest prince’s move really dealt a heavy blow to Beiting’s fighting spirit and suppressed its arrogance.

From the perspective of the country, the prince is naturally happy, but from a personal perspective, it is naturally very bad.

As the eldest prince, he was not very convinced of his own status as the crown prince. Back then, his mother was just an insignificant concubine, while his mother was the crown princess. Naturally, the eldest prince did not dare to say what was in his mind directly at that time.

But now, his mother has passed away for many years, and the eldest prince’s biological mother is already Concubine De, one of the three concubines. The eldest prince is also the eldest, so how can the prince not worry?

What’s more, the eldest prince returned with military merits this time. With his achievements, even his father would have to praise him highly.

As the saying goes, the west wind prevails over the east wind. If the eldest prince gains power, his brilliance as the crown prince will inevitably be overshadowed. There is nothing that can be done about it.

“Now I am just worried whether these days will ever end.” The prince smiled bitterly.

I have lived peacefully in Shangjing City for so many years, and now it is finally time to repay my debts.

“At this point, this is all we can do.” The Grand Tutor couldn’t help but sigh, “With the defeat of Beiting, the rise of the eldest prince is unstoppable. Your Highness, please be patient for a while.”

If the prince steps out at this time, it will only do harm and no good.

“Your Highness, please relax. As long as the emperor does not change his mind, your position will not be shaken by anyone.”

The issue of the crown prince is related to the foundation of the country. The crown prince has long passed the most difficult period and has now established a firm foothold. This cannot be easily changed, so the current tutor is not actually that worried.

After all, no matter how great the achievements are, they are not as important as the emperor’s intentions.

The prince was silent for a moment, then slowly said, “I hope so.”

I just don’t know how long the happy days in the East Palace can last.

Listening to the sounds of Xiaojiu and the little princess playing and fighting in the yard outside, the prince couldn’t help but show envy in his eyes, and then sighed: “It’s better to be a child…” But at this time, he would never let anything go.

The Grand Tutor remained silent.

Ten days passed in a flash, and early in the morning Ye Shuo was woken up by Xiao Luzi and Xing Yucheng.

“Oh, Your Highness, why are you still sleeping? The eldest prince is about to take his men back to the capital!” After three days of rest, the army led by the eldest prince has reached the time to enter the city.

No matter what, the Ninth Prince must not be late this time.

Ye Shuo was still very sensible about this matter. This time, Ye Shuo did not let Xiao Luzi and Xing Yucheng wait too long and quickly got out of bed.

Xiao Luzi was stunned for a moment, wondering why the Ninth Prince got up so early today.

If Ye Shuo knew what Xiao Luzi was thinking, he would definitely say something. Of course, because of this matter, he went to bed much earlier than usual last night.

After washing up, Ye Shuo changed his clothes and opened the door.

It was only at this time that Ye Shuo noticed that today’s weather didn’t seem to be particularly good.

It was indeed inconvenient in ancient times because there was no weather forecast. For such a big event, it was necessary to choose a sunny day. But unfortunately, the matter had already been decided and could not be easily changed.

As long as it doesn’t rain, it doesn’t matter if the sky is a little cloudy.

Ye Shuo was eating breakfast when he noticed that Xiao Jianjian came running over to him without him noticing.

Ye Shuo originally wanted to go find her specifically, but now it seems that there is no need.

Without waiting for Jian Jian’s response, Ye Shuo quickly said, “Eat quickly. I’ll take you to see the big scene later.”

After saying that, Ye Shuo stuffed the bean bun into the little princess’s hand without saying anything.

The imperial concubine who followed closely behind could not help but be stunned when she heard this: “Why did you take Jianjian to do something like this?”

Ye Shuo didn’t even think twice: “The army is entering the city. It’s a rare sight. It would be a pity not to bring Jian Jian to see it.”

Imperial Concubine: “…”

There would be people everywhere, so what was so interesting about it? Was he just taking it as a normal trip?

But Jianjian didn’t care about that. When she heard about going outside the palace, it was quite attractive for a child, so she subconsciously started to eat the bean bun in her hand.

By the time Ye Shuo finished eating, Jian Jian was almost done.

He wiped her paws with a handkerchief, and then Ye Shuo threw Jian Jian onto his back. Before Jian Jian could even react, he said, “It’s too late. Hold on tight. I won’t be responsible if you fall.”

Jianjian subconsciously hugged his neck.

The child was too honest, and Ye Shuo almost rolled his eyes.

Just like that, the imperial concubine had no time to stop it at all. She could only watch her son running away with her daughter on his back, and soon they disappeared.

Looking at Xiao Luzi and Xing Yucheng who were desperately chasing after them, the imperial concubine couldn’t come back to her senses for a long time.

At the same time, on the other side——

The fact that the eldest prince had defeated Beiting made Emperor Jingwen very happy. Even though he had known about it several months ago, he was still very happy that the eldest prince had returned to the court.

To show his importance, he notified all the princes and Prime Minister He and others, and prepared to go to the city wall of Shangjing City to welcome him in person.

As for the infighting among the princes, it has now spread to the smallest details.

Ye Shuo thought that he was already very early as he arrived a quarter of an hour early, but in fact the Second Prince and his companions had already arrived half an hour ago, so compared to them, Ye Shuo was once again very gloriously… late.

Just when Emperor Jingwen thought that the little bastard would not be able to get out of bed today, and just when Emperor Jingwen could not help frowning, he saw something in the distance running towards him at an extremely fast speed and in an unruly manner.

This figure…

Emperor Jingwen couldn’t help it and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.
