Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Wasn’t Emperor Taicheng always polite and obedient to me before?

However, Emperor Taicheng now didn’t even look at him, as if he was just an object that could be discarded at will.

When Zhang Fu was useful, Emperor Taicheng would naturally turn a blind eye to him. But now that he is useless, how could a mere Zhang Fu get so much face?

Even from a long distance away, one could still hear Zhang Fu’s pleas for mercy and screams.

Zhang Fu had been accustomed to bullying others in the palace by relying on the favour of Emperor Taicheng, and had long been hated by others. Now that he finally got the chance, naturally no one would let him off easily.

Zhang Fu finally understood the truth that he should not offend anyone in the palace. There was a reason why the palace people were polite to each other. But by the time he realised it, it was too late…

When Zhang Fu was in power, even the eunuchs around Emperor Taicheng had to show him courtesy. Now, when Prince Rui came back, the Taoist got his retribution, which was really gratifying.

At the same time, the chief eunuch became more respectful to Prince Rui.

However, what Ye Shuo thought in his heart was, it’s not bad, at least he wasn’t completely confused by those pills.

Emperor Taicheng couldn’t help coughing, looking extremely helpless: “So, you should be satisfied, right?”

Ye Shuo pulled the corner of his mouth and said in a gloomy tone: “That’s nothing, you are just a demon. If the emperor knew that you had messed up the palace like this, he would be very angry with you.”

Emperor Taicheng’s expression suddenly froze.

Emperor Taicheng’s first reaction was to get angry. After all, no one had dared to talk to him like that for a long time. Also, ever since Emperor Taicheng took the medicine, his temper had gradually become more irritable and he was not as calm as before.

But on second thought, the only one who is willing and dares to talk to me like this is Xiaojiu.

Since he was willing to mention his father, I knew that he still considered me a brother.

Although Xiaojiu was far away in the martial arts world, Emperor Taicheng didn’t believe that he had never heard of the affairs of the Five Kings, Seven Kings, and Eighth Kings. But he was still willing to come back. What could it be for?

At this moment, what else can he gain?

Thinking of this, Emperor Taicheng controlled himself and suppressed the evil fire in his heart.

Seeing this scene, the eunuch next to him had his eyelids twitching. You know, there are not many people in the whole Zhou Dynasty who can make the emperor restrain his temper. ṘÀ𝐍ǑBΕs

Seeing Xiao Ming like this, Ye Shuo really couldn’t get angry. After a while, he sighed deeply, sat down, and asked, “Tell me, why do you want me to come back at this time? Is there something you want me to do?”

Although Xiao Ming was weak, he was still in good spirits. It was far from the time to call him back for mourning, so Ye Shuo guessed that he must have other things to do.

“For my brother’s sake, what do you want me to do?”

At this point, Ye Shuo was too lazy to play along with him anymore. He wanted to finish his work quickly and then go back to hug his wife.

Xiao Ming went to so much trouble, he probably didn’t want to recall him to Beijing and kill him.

Xiaojiu has always been so straightforward, so it is always very easy to talk to him, without having to guess and waste time.

Although Emperor Taicheng was not quite used to this method, he managed to keep up with his pace.

Emperor Taicheng thought for a moment and said, “Nothing else, I just want you to take good care of Jin’er and raise him to adulthood after I leave.”

Knowing that there is no reason to let people work for nothing without giving them benefits, Emperor Taicheng hesitated for a moment and added: “I… want to appoint you as regent.”

Ye Shuo: “…”

The moment he heard this, Ye Shuo just wanted to turn around and leave.  

——Run, run as fast as you can!

Is it because he is not so carefree outside, or his wife is not pretty enough, or his unborn daughter is not cute enough? Why does he have to give up his good life outside and come to worry about all these things for him?

The three words “regent” sound glorious, but it is not much better than being an emperor. He has to worry about everything that the emperor has to worry about, and he also has to worry about things that the emperor cannot worry about. The most important thing is that it is difficult for him to have a good ending.

Although Jin’er is cute now, Ye Shuo cannot guarantee what he will be like when he grows up.

Once one sits on the throne of emperor, he will gradually turn into a monster, from being naive to being indifferent, and finally into something completely different.

Even Ye Shuo could not guarantee that he could break the curse.

Besides, how old is little Ye Jin now? He is only ten years old. When he turns eighteen and takes power, it means that I have to stay in Shangjing City for a full eight years, and I can’t leave for a moment during this period. Is this still a life for a human being? ? ?

In a flash, Ye Shuo was ready to run away.

But his face showed a different expression.

Seeing that Ye Shuo was a little resistant at first and kept saying “this is not good”, Emperor Taicheng then promised him many benefits. He seemed to be moved, and a look of intense hesitation flashed in his eyes. Finally, he nodded reluctantly.

“Well… okay then.”

Upon hearing this, Emperor Taicheng breathed a sigh of relief.

After Ye Shuo left and Emperor Taicheng calmed down a little, he began to think that something was wrong.

It seemed like it was going too smoothly. Although Xiaojiu was a little reluctant, he finally agreed.

So Emperor Taicheng said it out loud. The eunuch next to him couldn’t help but whisper, “After all, he is the regent.” He is much more powerful than the prince.

However, the eunuch’s words reminded Emperor Taicheng that if Xiaojiu really cared about these things, would he have waited until today?

The matter was of great importance, and Emperor Taicheng felt uneasy, so he summoned the secret guards around him.

However, there was nothing unusual about Ye Shuo’s behaviour. According to the secret guards, after he went out, he hesitated for a while, but finally showed a hint of joy, which was completely consistent with the eunuch’s guess just now. Deep down in his heart, who doesn’t like power?

What’s more, when he met the eldest prince outside the palace, he even greeted him in a good mood, which confused the eldest prince. He stood stupidly on the street for a while before he barely reacted.

“Why did you come back suddenly? Was it the person who called you back? Did he have something to tell you?”

“Well, don’t worry about it. It’s a good thing after all. You’ll know when the time comes.”

Ye Shuo walked out of the imperial city with a little joy, met the eldest prince with a little joy, and talked to the eldest prince with a little pride. So far, everything was very normal.

After listening to the secret guard’s description, Emperor Taicheng was silent at first, and then he spoke decisively: “Keep a close eye on him, especially at night.”

Ye Shuo was completely unaware. He took a bath quietly, then had a quiet dinner, and as soon as it got dark, he went to sleep quietly.

Around three o’clock in the morning, Ye Shuo suddenly opened his eyes.

If we don’t leave now, when will we leave?

Ye Shuo mounted his horse and rushed towards the city gate as if he was risking his life.

Then, he was arrested.

In the middle of the night, Emperor Taicheng was awakened. Seeing the circle of secret guards around him, what else did Emperor Taicheng not understand?

However, before he could open his mouth, the young man in front of him knelt down with a plop.

“Sixth brother! Please, let me go!”

In the past, even when my father beat him with a rattan stick, he had never screamed as miserably as he did this time.
