Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

The Second Prince stared blankly, trying hard to identify it.

Looking at the Fifth Prince and the Sixth Prince next to them, they already looked like they were in a state of great headache but were not surprised at all.

Being brothers with this guy is really embarrassing… The Fifth Prince gritted his teeth secretly.

Emperor Jingwen was in a very complicated mood at this time, feeling both relieved and angry.

The good news is that he didn’t go too far and stayed in bed until his elder brother came back. The bad news is that even though he came, he still caused a lot of trouble.

After Ye Shuo ran all the way, Jian Jian on his back almost vomited. Now her eyes were full of tears and she looked like she wanted to vomit but couldn’t. She looked so miserable.

The moment he saw Jianjian, Emperor Jingwen couldn’t help but take a deep breath: “Why did you bring Jianjian here?”

“Your Majesty, we’re here to welcome my eldest brother back to the palace.” Ye Shuo said as if it was a matter of course.

So…did he think that this family was going to go out for fun? ? ?

Emperor Jingwen originally wanted to scold him, but after Wang Ziquan reminded him that there was not much time left before departure, Emperor Jingwen reluctantly endured it.

Forget it, forget it, he has already brought her here, and it’s too late to send the little princess back now.

“…Hurry up and join the team!”

As expected of the Ninth Prince, he is still being scolded at this time.

Upon seeing this, all the ministers could not help but shake their heads.

Ye Shuo didn’t feel ashamed at all. He brought Jian Jian to the side of the Sixth Prince. On the way, he asked about the Sixth Prince’s recent situation: “How do you feel after building your own palace?”

At this hour, Xiaojiu is still chatting…

The Sixth Prince curled his lips and said, “It’s OK.”

Seeing that he was about to speak again, the Sixth Prince quickly said, “Don’t talk anymore. Get ready to get on the carriage. We are about to leave the city.”

Seeing the carriage coming in front of him, Ye Shuo had to shut his mouth.

The Sixth Prince breathed a sigh of relief.

In this way, the group of people arrived at the gate of Shangjing City in a mighty manner.

Probably because they had also received the news of the Great Zhou’s victory, the people around were jubilant and the entire Shangjing City was filled with joy and peace.

Ye Shuo couldn’t help but sneak a peek at the prince next to his adoptive father, only to find that the prince had a smile on his lips, looking as if he was also happy about this.

From time to time, he would even praise his adoptive father, showing the wise and generous image of the crown prince.

Ye Shuo was stunned for a moment, then sighed.

“Brother…?” Including the Sixth Prince, everyone’s attention was not here at this moment. Only the little Princess Jianjian noticed that something was wrong with her brother.

Seeing Jianjian looking up at him, Ye Shuo shook his head gently: “Nothing.”

“I just feel that… the wind is getting stronger right now. I wonder if it will rain later.”

For some reason, Jianjian suddenly felt that her brother standing on the city wall at this moment was particularly gloomy, with a solemn look between his brows, totally different from his usual smiling face.

However, it was only a brief moment, and when Jianjian blinked, she looked carefully and found that her brother was still the same brother, except that the words “not doing his job properly” were almost written on his face.

The pointed and tender little face suddenly fell.

Since they were welcoming the victorious soldiers back, the Queen, as the mother of the country, was naturally there as well. Not only was the Queen there, she even brought the little prince with her.

The queen held the little prince’s hand and never let go for a moment.

“You must take a good look at what the eldest prince looks like today.” Pretending to straighten the little prince’s clothes, the queen said softly.

She wanted to let her son see how high-spirited and energetic his elder brother is now.

Almost as soon as the words fell, the little prince suddenly became nervous.

Not to mention the Queen, even the Second Prince and the others couldn’t help but feel nervous.

On the city wall, the people looked all different, and Ye Shuo felt tired just by looking at them.

Just when Ye Shuo was feeling bored, he suddenly felt the city wall under his feet shaking slightly. Listening carefully, he could hear the sound of galloping horses in the distance, like fine drum beats, becoming closer and clearer.

Ye Shuo was startled, then suddenly looked up.

I saw the small black dots that were the size of ants just now gradually enlarged, and one by one, their figures gradually appeared.

When they were about two or three miles away from Shangjing City, the eldest prince made a gesture and all the soldiers stopped.

Looking at the towering Shangjing City in the distance, a complex look flashed across the eldest prince’s eyes.

After ten years of hardships at the border, I finally returned here alive.

I just wonder if my brothers are living a comfortable life in the capital?

“Go!” Quickly restraining the various emotions in his eyes, the eldest prince gently patted his beloved warhorse.

The warhorse had followed the eldest prince for several years and was naturally familiar with every command of the eldest prince. It quickly changed from its previous wild galloping state to slowly walking forward.

The road of more than two miles was neither long nor short. It took no more than a quarter of an hour for the large army to appear in front of them.

Ye Shuo had excellent eyesight and immediately saw the man at the front of the team.

The man was tall and strong, with deep facial features. Perhaps due to years of fighting, he exuded a murderous aura that was intimidating without even getting angry. Compared to him, the other princes, including the crown prince, were like flowers in a greenhouse.

The prince’s hands tightened for a moment, but soon relaxed again before anyone else noticed.

Ye Shuo was ready to watch it a few more times. It was a live version of the ancient military parade. The scene was indeed spectacular enough and rare to see in many years. But after a while, he saw Jianjian below desperately pulling at his sleeves.

“Brother, brother…I want to see…I want to see…”

It turned out that Jianjian was young and short, and couldn’t see what was happening below at all.

Ye Shuo didn’t think much about it. He just picked up Jian Jian and put her on the top of the city wall.

Jianjian still didn’t know what fear was. She was so brave that even Ye Shuo had to admit defeat. So she was not afraid and looked over with curiosity in her eyes.

Wherever the main force below went, the two scorching gazes followed.

The eldest prince, who was leading the group, raised his head sharply, and then he saw two figures moving along with his movements. They were completely fake and completely different from the others. The amazement in his eyes was almost overflowing.

They are exactly the same as the common people they met along the way.

When he reached the bottom of the city wall, the two children bent their bodies lower and lower, and finally they were lying on the wall to watch.

Ye Shuo couldn’t help but touch his chin: “So impressive…”

Jianjian nodded repeatedly: “That’s right!”

The eldest prince: “…”

Looking at their ages, the eldest prince almost instantly figured out the identities of the two people, the adult and the child.

Everyone in the palace said that the Ninth Prince acted arbitrarily, and it turned out to be true.

Not long after, the eldest prince came before Emperor Jingwen.

The first moment he saw Emperor Jingwen, the eldest prince knelt down and said, “Your Highness, I pay my respects to you, father. Long live your Highness.”

He was only seventeen years old when he left the palace. Now, ten years have passed and he is already twenty-seven years old. Thinking of this, even the eldest prince couldn’t help but feel excited.

Therefore, when he met Emperor Jingwen, he inevitably leaked some information.

“Father, I have accomplished my mission and brought back the head of General Beiting Lanruo to present to you.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the person behind the eldest prince walked out in time, holding a wooden box in his hand.

Almost at the moment he saw the wooden box, Ye Shuo covered Jianjian’s eyes in time and refused to let go no matter how Jianjian struggled.

It is right to exercise children, but this does not include letting them look at human heads. If this is not done properly, it may leave a lifelong psychological trauma on them.

Even if there is blood involved, we have to wait until the child grows up a little.

But Ye Shuo’s behaviour doesn’t necessarily mean the Queen will be the same.

The empress was standing next to Emperor Jingwen and was quite close to him. The moment the little prince saw the box, he instinctively wanted to close his eyes. However, the empress pinched his palm hard, and the little prince couldn’t help but scream in pain.

Almost at the same time, the wooden box opened, and the man’s head inside was wide-eyed and full of murderous intent.

Caught off guard, the little prince screamed subconsciously.

The so-called legitimate son of the Empress Central Palace is just like this, not even half as good as the son of the previous Empress.

The eldest prince glanced at the younger prince, and seeing his reaction, he didn’t take him seriously at all, and quickly looked at the crown prince.

Seeing that the prince’s expression did not change, he was actually a little surprised. He clapped his hands and praised: “It really is General Lanruo’s head. Big brother is really brave!”

The prince was as flawless as ever.

This guy has been acting like this since he was a child. He is so boring.

The eldest prince’s interest suddenly dropped by half, but looking at the reactions of his other brothers, especially the second prince who was only good at literature and not martial arts, his face turned slightly pale, and the fourth prince and others were not much better. As for the rumoured ninth prince, he looked up at the sky and the earth, and refused to look at the wooden box no matter what.

The eldest prince couldn’t help but sneer in his heart when he saw this.

What a bunch of wimps!

Although the eldest prince’s ridicule was not only directed at the younger prince, but more at his other grown-up brothers, the queen didn’t think so in her heart.

Catching a glimpse of the contempt in the eldest prince’s eyes, the queen couldn’t help feeling humiliated.

Especially her own son’s scream made the queen even more embarrassed.

The little prince seemed to sense something vaguely, and couldn’t help but tremble even more violently.

Emperor Jingwen, on the other hand, was surprised at first, but after he recognized the face, he was overjoyed.

Lanruo….Lanruo, this name sounds gentle and amiable, but in fact, who in the Three Kingdoms does not know this General Lanruo?

How could Emperor Jingwen not be happy when such a powerful general of Beiting was killed by his own son?

“Good! Good! Good!” Emperor Jingwen said three good words in a row, which made everyone present excited.

The eldest prince felt relieved upon seeing this, and he obviously realised that the hardships he had endured for the past ten years were not in vain.

Ye Shuo stood at almost the farthest position, watching everything from afar. He knew in his heart that at this point, the conflict between the eldest prince and the crown prince was inevitable.

The previous emperor was incompetent and wars were frequent during his reign, so in the end there were no more titles to be given and he allowed my grandfather’s family to become more powerful.

When my cheap dad ascended the throne, over 70% of the military generals were direct descendants of my grandfather. My grandfather’s power was deeply rooted and intertwined. My cheap dad felt that his throne was unstable, but he was unable to interfere in military affairs for a while.

It is difficult to convince ordinary people to be in this position. Without a foundation and achievements, how can the generals in the army recognize them? In the end, no matter how hard they try, they are just a decoration and will never have access to real power.

Therefore, the person chosen by the cheap father must be important enough.

And in this world, is there anyone more important than the Dragon Prince? The generals may not listen to ordinary people, but they must listen to the prince, right?

At that time, all the princes were still young, the position of the crown prince could not be moved, and the second prince was weak, so Emperor Jingwen could only let the eldest prince, who was only seventeen years old, take on all the responsibility.

The eldest prince takes the lead, and the people arranged by Emperor Jingwen can gradually grow under the wings of the eldest prince.

Now, ten years have passed, and the family of the Duke of Zhen is finally no longer a major concern for Emperor Jingwen.

All the chaos had been sown as early as the time of the previous emperor, but it is only now gradually emerging.

Ye Shuo asked himself, if he were the eldest prince, would he be willing to accept this?

He worked so hard to support the country, but his younger brothers were eating, drinking, and having fun under his wings, enjoying all the wealth and luxury in the world. No one would be willing to do this.

And what about the crown prince? His position as the heir to the throne was decided when he was ten years old, and there was no turning back for him.

As for the Second Prince, the Fourth Prince, the Fifth Prince, and the Sixth Prince… perhaps they do not have that thought at the moment, but as the fight between the Crown Prince and the Eldest Prince intensifies, they will gradually develop that thought.

Although everyone was so happy at the moment, in Ye Shuo’s eyes, it seemed like a storm was about to come.

Human nature is like this, and it is beyond human power. As long as human nature is not destroyed, disputes will not end.

This is what is called the pain of wakefulness.
