Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

For example, recently his mother has been sleeping longer than usual and is more sleepy. She used to get up at the hour of Mao, but recently she has been getting up at the hour of Chen, which is about half an hour later.

The change in one hour is not big, so Ye Shuo didn’t pay much attention to it before. People feel sleepy in spring, tired in autumn, and take naps in summer. It is normal for people to be a little lazy in the hot summer weather.

His mother’s lunch break time in the afternoon also increased relatively. These are extremely small changes, and no one would pay special attention to them. Only when you look back on them can you feel them.

And his mother’s appetite has also increased recently. On weekdays, she eats a standard bowl of rice, but recently, it has increased slightly from time to time. When they ate grilled fish more than a month ago, his mother even ate four pieces of fish while eating.

What’s more, the place where his cheap father stayed most of the time in the past two years was his mother’s. Out of the ten times he came to the harem, six times he was with his mother, so the probability of him becoming a father is actually quite high.

Why didn’t I think of this before!

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he felt. Ye Shuo was completely dumbfounded.

Looking at the imperial concubine next to her, she was still unaware. After all, she had injured her body a little at the beginning. Ever since giving birth to Ye Shuo, the imperial concubine’s menstruation had been irregular. So even though she had not changed her clothes for the past two months, she did not think about anything else.

Ye Shuo was already seven years old, and the imperial concubine had no pregnancy for seven consecutive years, so even she subconsciously believed that Shuo’er was her only son in this life.

After Ye Shuo was born safely, Emperor Jingwen never used medicine on the imperial concubine again. After all, the imperial concubine had already given birth to a son. Based on the principle that too many lice will not itch, and too many debts will not worry, Emperor Jingwen no longer cared about her.

There are only advantages and no disadvantages for the imperial concubine to have more children. If there are too many sons, no matter which one the Duke of Zhen supports, the others will be dissatisfied. If the imperial concubine gives birth to too many sons, it will only deepen their internal conflicts. At the very least, it can divide them and dilute the power in the hands of the Duke of Zhen, so that the Duke of Zhen’s Mansion is no longer a monolithic entity, so it is a good thing.

None of the three of them thought about it in this regard, which led to the current situation.

When Ye Shuo first heard that the queen was pregnant, he was shocked. Why would the queen choose to get pregnant at this time?

Ye Shuo didn’t believe that it was his cheap father’s idea. His cheap father didn’t seem like such a kind person. He wouldn’t suddenly become soft-hearted after persisting for so many years.

In order to prevent the legitimate sons from fighting with each other, the stepfather must have issued a death order, so this matter can only be decided by the Queen herself.

The Queen Mother usually looks cautious and rational, and my stepfather probably didn’t expect that the Queen would suddenly do such a thing to him, so that he was not prepared enough and got caught in the trap.

Ye Shuo could understand the Queen’s desire to be a mother, but! The timing was wrong!

It would be fine if the Queen gave birth to a princess, but if it was a prince, then it would be really all over.

The crown prince is now in his twenties, his position is secure, and the little grandson has been born. The queen’s child is more than twenty years younger than the crown prince. By the time the queen’s child grows up, it will be too late. Except for the queen’s maternal family, which other minister would be so desperate as to abandon the crown prince and turn around to follow a young boy with unknown prospects?

Unless my cheap dad lives an extremely, extremely long life, there is absolutely no hope for this.

Moreover, this child’s situation is different from his original one. No matter how favored his mother is, she is only a concubine after all. No matter how prominent his grandfather’s family is, it is useless and there is no way to make him a legitimate son.

But the child in the Queen’s belly is a definite legitimate son. When the Crown Prince succeeds to the throne in the future, the other brothers will not matter, but this legitimate son must be killed. Even if the Crown Prince has a gentle personality, he will be forced by the situation and have no choice. Otherwise, if he is kept, he will become a source of trouble.

Even if the crown prince is extremely unlucky and ultimately misses out on the throne, no matter which other prince ascends the throne, he cannot be left behind!

If you kill the son, how can you spare the mother? No one can sleep peacefully with a time bomb around.

Unless the Queen can finally create a bright future for her son, she won’t even be able to keep her position as the Queen Mother.

However, let alone the Crown Prince or other princes, even Ye Shuo would not allow such a thing to happen.

It doesn’t matter which other prince comes to the throne, except the queen’s son!

The relationship between the Empress and his mother was extremely antagonistic. It could be said that they were as hostile as fire and water. In fact, the reason why the Empress was the Empress was because her stepfather had asked her to compete with his mother. After years of resentment, Ye Shuo could imagine how the Empress’s son would treat them after he ascended the throne.

So no matter what, Ye Shuo will never let that day come to pass, even if it means his hands are stained with blood, Ye Shuo will not hesitate.

However, Ye Shuo felt that it was not his turn to take action.

Now that the other princes have begun to show their prowess, each of them is as cunning as honeycomb coal, so how can they accommodate newcomers?

If it had happened a few years earlier, when the Seventh and Eighth Princes had not yet entered the Upper Study and started studying, the Empress could have barely caught up with the last train of the competition. But now, the Seventh and Eighth Princes have begun to show their extraordinary abilities in studying, and it is too late for the Empress to interfere.

Unless he is truly the chosen one, able to overpower his eight elder brothers on his own, or his adoptive father has been cursed, and his IQ has suddenly dropped to zero, otherwise Ye Shuo even dares to directly assert that after him, no one else will be able to achieve anything.

Given the age gap and the fact that there are only so many ministers in the court, there simply aren’t enough to go around.

When the later one reaches the age to attend court, the ministers in the court have all lined up. His wolf-like brothers will probably not leave any meat dregs for this so-called legitimate son. How can he want to take the throne without any support? By then, even if his stepfather directly passes the throne, his brothers will be able to overturn the throne from under his buttocks.

He can turn the tide and win even when facing eight opponents at the same time. What kind of strong man must he be!

Ye Shuo thought he couldn’t do it, so he just stayed away from it from the beginning.

Taking all factors into consideration, even if the Queen gave birth to a son as she wished, the possibility of this legitimate son succeeding to the throne is no less than winning the lottery jackpot.

What’s more, this unexpected child will inevitably cause his stepfather to hate him, because the prince is now in his twenties, and his stepfather doesn’t have to do everything by himself like he did in the past and protect the prince like a baby. So he won’t do anything to the queen, but because the queen acted on her own, the result will probably not be good.

According to Ye Shuo’s observation, his stepfather did not have much affection for the Queen herself, and it would be almost harder than ascending to heaven for the Queen to make a comeback later.

So Ye Shuo couldn’t figure out why the other party did this. This… there are people who think that the peaceful life is too comfortable and want to make things more difficult for themselves? ?

As for his mother, Ye Shuo had a hunch that his mother was most likely the one who got it right.

Fortunately, his mother was in her prime when she was pregnant with him or this child. She was a little over 20 years old when she gave birth to him. Although it was not the best childbearing age, she was young and strong, with strong recovery ability. She was not like a young girl whose body had not fully grown yet, so it was not bad. Now his mother is pregnant with a second child at the age of less than 28, which is also within the safety line.

As long as you are careful, there is a high probability that the production will be successful.

Even though he thought so, Ye Shuo still felt a little uneasy.

Regardless of the era, a woman would have to go through the gates of hell when giving birth, even if she had given birth once before. However, Ye Shuo simply could not afford the consequences of losing his mother.

What’s more, it would be a good thing if his mother gave birth to a prince. Ye Shuo dared to guarantee that as long as he showed a hostile attitude towards the child, it would play into the hands of his cheap father, and the crisis would be resolved.

If it was a princess… that would be really fatal.

If the princess said so, Ye Shuo would have no choice but to get involved in this mess.

As for Concubine Song, she was totally out of Ye Shuo’s consideration. Whether she gave birth to a prince or a princess would have no impact on the current situation, so it was better not to mention it.

There is just one thing. Concubine Song revealed the news of her pregnancy today, which has slightly overshadowed the Empress. Under this circumstance, Ye Shuo always feels that the other party’s situation is not optimistic.

However, the Queen is the Queen after all, and her main opponents are not minor concubines like Concubine Song, so she probably would not bother to take action personally.

As long as Lady Song is more alert and careful, there is a good chance that she will give birth to a child smoothly.

While Ye Shuo was thinking, the sour feeling in Concubine Rong’s throat suddenly and miraculously disappeared. As for the mouth bowl, it was naturally forgotten. In addition, everyone’s attention was on the Queen and Concubine Song at the moment, so no one cared about this episode. They just thought that the Concubine was disgusted by Concubine Song.

Influenced by the Duke of Zhen and her brothers, Concubine Rong also liked to have a few drinks in her spare time. In addition, the alcohol content of alcohol in ancient times was low, so she just regarded it as a beverage.

But this time, Ye Shuo didn’t dare to ask his mother to drink in.

No matter how low the alcohol content of the wine is, it still contains alcohol. If your guess comes true, you’re done for.

Seeing that his mother was unaware and was about to put the apricot wine into her mouth, Ye Shuo quickly said, “Mother, Shuo’er wants to drink too.”

Concubine Rong frowned upon hearing this: “Children cannot drink alcohol.”

“But mother can taste it, but Shuo’er can’t. Shuo’er also wants to know what apricot wine tastes like…”

After hearing what he said, the imperial concubine also felt sorry for her son. She could drink, but he couldn’t. It was a bit too pitiful.

But children really cannot drink alcohol, and the imperial concubine did not dare to feed him, for fear of harming her son.

It would be too cruel for her to drink alone under such circumstances.

After struggling for a long time, the imperial concubine finally put down the cup and said, “In this case, is it okay for mother to accompany Shuo’er?”

“Yeah!” This was what Ye Shuo was waiting for, so he nodded vigorously, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Shuo didn’t want to be so tactful, but Concubine Song alone was enough to make the Empress hate him, and Ye Shuo didn’t want to implicate his mother as well.

So let’s wait until the banquet is over and then go back to talk about it.

Looking over there, she saw that everyone was looking at her. Concubine Song subconsciously covered her belly with her hands, her eyes full of fear. Seeing Concubine Song’s reaction, how could the Queen not understand what was going on?

The Queen had wanted to tell this matter to the Emperor on his birthday, as it was a special day and perhaps the Emperor would calm down. But now, she has been overshadowed by a little beauty. How could the Queen not be annoyed?

The Queen could barely keep her expression.

While waiting for the imperial physician to diagnose his pulse, Ye Shuo glanced at his stepfather’s face, but what he was thinking in his heart was that this birthday was quite special.

Good news came from the sky, triple good news came at the same time, my stepfather took good care of himself and is in good health.

In the royal family that believes in having many children, the more blessings one has, the stepfather should be extremely happy…

Alas!
