Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating
Chapter 42: Jealousy

It’s over, it’s over, His Majesty has finally been driven mad by the Ninth Prince!!!

Just when Wang Ziquan and the eunuch beside him were panicking and didn’t know how to persuade them, the prince seemed to have noticed something unusual and walked forward.

The Prince’s Tutor thought about it and followed closely.

Soon, the prince stood still and asked in a low voice: “Eunuch Wang, what happened?”

Oh my God, the savior is here!

Wang Ziquan told him everything that had happened without reservation, and he was a little flustered: “Your Highness, what do you think I should do in this situation?”

Eunuch Wang has never seen the emperor so angry in all these years.

He was so angry that he couldn’t help laughing. Even when it was the Duke of Zhen, the emperor was just furious and upset and accidentally dropped a teacup. To some extent, the Ninth Prince is more powerful than the Duke of Zhen.

After all, the Duke of Zhen can be killed and beaten, and the Ninth Prince is the emperor’s own son. You can’t beat or kill him just because he doesn’t like to go to school, right?

You can’t just say that the Ninth Prince should be deposed because of this, right? The last time the Ninth Prince was confined for half a year when he was one and a half years old was already unbelievable enough. If the emperor really deposed the Ninth Prince because of this, it would not just be gossip in the harem and court, but would definitely leave a mark in the history books.

When he thought that the prince would be recorded by the historians because of this incident… Wang Ziquan suddenly felt that being a eunuch was not bad.

Without offspring, there will never be such troubles.

If anyone else gave birth to a son like the Ninth Prince, he would probably never have a peaceful life.

After hearing this, the prince subconsciously turned his head, and was indeed shocked to see that behind Emperor Jingwen’s seemingly relaxed and happy smile there was a hint of distortion.

The Prince’s tutor at the side listened to the whole process and suddenly felt sympathy for his old rival.

He suddenly felt that although his old rival was hateful, he did not commit such a crime.

But in fact, the Crown Prince, like Emperor Jingwen, did not seem to be too surprised when he heard about this. He just felt a little helpless. His little brother was really brave!

Quickly calming down, the prince said, “Don’t worry, eunuch. I will go and bring my ninth brother back right away.”

In the past two years, Ye Shuo has been hanging out in the East Palace all year round, and is inseparable from his little son. Because the age difference between Ye Shuo and his son is not much, and the prince held Ye Shuo in his arms when he was born, the prince has subtly regarded him as his half son.

The prince decided to have a good talk with his brother.

If time could go back seven years, the prince would never have thought that he would see this day.

However, just as the prince turned around, the voice of Emperor Jingwen came: “You are not allowed to go!”

“This time, no one is allowed to pay attention to him!”

Emperor Jingwen suspected that it was because of his indulgence that he became more and more self-indulgent and lawless.

“Let him go. I want to see what tricks he can come up with on his own.”

Emperor Jingwen had never seen such a person among his sons, and even when he was the crown prince, he had never seen such a person among his brothers.

The royal family has lasted for so many years, and no matter how ridiculous the people in it were, no one has ever said that they really don’t care about face. Emperor Jingwen doesn’t believe that his son really doesn’t care at all.

“Once he loses face, he will naturally learn to restrain himself.”

Therefore, Emperor Jingwen planned to handle the situation coldly this time, and he must cure this problem.

Emperor Jingwen had already understood in advance that the more parents try to control their children’s crying, the worse it will be. If the children think this trick works, and they feel confident, there will be no end to it.

You have to give him the cold shoulder and let him know that he is not that important.

“Isn’t he just relying on the fact that he is my son? He doesn’t even think about the fact that I have so many sons, and I don’t need him anymore.”

Emperor Jingwen was really furious this time. How could he not be angry when a dignified emperor was controlled by a little kid?

The words were so decisive that the prince noticed the cruel look in his father’s eyes and was immediately shocked: “Father!”

“Okay, Chengzuo, you don’t need to say more. This matter has nothing to do with you, and you don’t have to care about it anymore.” After saying that, Emperor Jingwen left with a cold face.

The prince was left feeling anxious, but helpless.

It’s over, it’s over, Ninth Brother, I can’t help you this time.

On the other hand, Ye Shuo had no idea that he had really pissed off emperor this time, and he even said that he wanted to give up on him. However, even if he knew, he would not take it to heart.

It sounds as if his cheap dad has any influence on whether he is good to him or not.

If he treats him well, will he be able to resist suppressing his grandfather’s family? If one side gains, the other side loses, and the suppression may become even more severe.

Being mean to him, can you really ruin him because of this?

his father is so hardworking now, going to court every day to review memorials. If he says that he has no desire to leave his name in history, Ye Shuo will never believe it.

When he reached the position of Cheap Dad, he had already reached the pinnacle of wealth and power, and all he wanted was a good reputation during his lifetime and after his death.

Since his father wanted to leave a good reputation in history, he would naturally not leave any stain because of his son.

Think about it, when the history book introduces Cheap Father, it suddenly says “Because the ninth son didn’t like to study, the emperor was furious and demoted him to a commoner”. Is this reasonable? It seems like a joke.

he is a serious man and would not allow such indecent remarks to appear in his life history.

In fact, when it comes down to it, it’s because Ye Shuo is no longer at the age where he longs for fatherly love.

Ye Shuo does not seek fame, love or profit. He does not ask for anything in his life except for the health of himself and his mother. Naturally, he does not care about the attitude of his cheap father.

As for fatherly love, Ye Shuo had seen the best in his previous life, so anything else would naturally not catch his eye.

The chubby face of Mr. Gu flashed through his mind again. Ye Shuo’s hands tightened for a moment. He was silent for a long time, then strode towards the study room.

Xing Yucheng vaguely saw that the Ninth Prince’s eyes were a little red, and thought that he was finally starting to worry, so he couldn’t help but comfort him: “It’s okay, Your Highness, when the time comes, as long as we admit our mistakes, the Master will definitely forgive us.”

I don’t know whether these words are meant to comfort Ye Shuo or to comfort myself.

“…How can you think that I would think that I am wrong?” Ye Shuo looked at him strangely. Please, this kind of perverted rule is wrong.

Xing Yucheng was almost moved to tears by his self-righteous behavior.

“Your Highness, please, don’t do this…”

“Oh, are you teaching me how to do things?”

Xing Yucheng: “…”

Just as the two were arguing and quarreling, the study room was finally within reach.

Xing Yucheng stopped subconsciously.

Ye Shuo didn’t hesitate at all and stepped in casually.

Then, Ye Shuo saw Master Cen with an angry look on his face, the Fifth Prince who was gloating and obviously enjoying the show, the Sixth Prince who looked disapproving and frowned, the Seventh and Eighth Princes who were curious, and the little grandson who almost had the word “worry” written on his face.

Before Master Cen could get angry, Ye Shuo decisively stretched out his hand.

“I’m sorry, Master, I’m late. Please punish me.”

Although Ye Shuo didn’t like the abnormal rules of the study room, he still respected the teacher very much. After all, the teacher was right, so he apologized sincerely.

Master Cen did not have the experience of modern people, so he did not know that Ye Shuo’s quick admission of his mistake meant “Don’t waste time, fight quickly, I have things to do after the fight.” If he had paid attention to the look in the eyes of the Ninth Prince in front of him, or even communicated with Emperor Jingwen more, he would not have been fooled.

Unfortunately, Master Cen did not have it.

Master Cen’s anger subsided a little, but he still said coldly: “Since Your Highness is willing to accept the punishment, I will punish you with three slaps on the hand.”

“Someone, get my ruler!”

For matters like this, the Fifth Prince would naturally be the one to take charge.

Without waiting for the eunuch to make a move, the Fifth Prince personally took down the ruler hanging on the wall for warning. He bowed respectfully to hide the amusement in his eyes: “Master, please.”

“Um.”

Seeing Master Cen raise his arm, Ye Shuo did not dodge, but Xing Yucheng and Xiao Luzi on the side felt their hearts tighten suddenly.

“Snap”, “Snap”, “Snap”.

After three crisp sounds, Master Cen finally let go of the anger in his heart. He then pointed to the last table and said, “You came the latest, so sit there.”

“Thank you, Master.” Ye Shuo bowed and walked over with his study companion. During the whole process, he seemed not to notice the different looks from the people around him, as if he didn’t know what the last table meant.

By the way, the punishment in the study room was indeed more form than substance, and its purpose was to beat the shame of the princes, rather than corporal punishment. In fact, Ye Shuo didn’t feel anything at all after being hit three times. It was completely different from the modern head teacher he met in the third grade of junior high school who broke several set squares in a year.

I feel like if this is the case, I can definitely subscribe for the whole year…

Also, has the Shangshufang never considered what to do if there is a shameless prince in the royal family?

(Shangshufang = Study room)

Sure enough, as long as people put aside their face, they will replace that the world suddenly becomes much brighter. This truth has been applicable from ancient times to the present.

As soon as Ye Shuo sat down, Master Cen announced the end of the get out of class.

Oh, I forgot to mention that the study rooms in the Great Zhou Dynasty also had divided classes, but not as frequent as in modern times. There was only a break once every one or two hours, and each break was only for a quarter of an hour. There was no need to worry about suffocating the growing children.

After the tutor left, the Fifth Prince passed by here with his companion, and glanced over here as if inadvertently.

Amusement, contempt, ridicule…all kinds of emotions.

If it were someone with a strong sense of self-esteem, such as the Sixth Prince, his eyes would probably turn red on the spot, and he would not be able to sleep for several days in a row. All he would think about in his midnight dreams was that he was despised.

This is probably the effect that the study room wants.

Once you are punished, you will not be able to raise your head in front of your brothers.

But it didn’t hurt Ye Shuo at all when it fell on him. He even felt that the ancients were too reserved. What’s the big deal? It won’t cost him a piece of flesh.

However, Xing Yucheng who was standing by could hardly hold back. When the fifth prince’s companion looked at him like this, his face immediately turned red with shame.

“well……”

Ye Shuo sighed, and for the sake of his study partner’s physical and mental health, he thought about it and said, “By the way, let me tell you a story.”

Xing Yucheng was in no mood to listen to any stories.

But Ye Shuo didn’t care about that, so he just started to tell his own story: “The story goes that if a man accidentally offends a wealthy businessman, the businessman wants to humiliate him, so he asks him to kowtow to him, and he gives the man 100 taels of silver for each kowtow.”

“When this person kowtowed for the first time, everyone around him was waiting to laugh at him. When he kowtowed for the tenth time, gradually, everyone stopped laughing. When he kowtowed for a hundred, a thousand, and ten thousand times, everyone began to envy him and wished they could replace him.”

Ye Shuo propped his chin with one hand, playing with the pen in his hand with boredom: “Your Highness is that person. I have only kowtowed for the first time. It is normal for everyone to mock me. Wait until I kowtow a hundred times, a thousand times, and then you will see.”

Xing Yucheng: “…”

What nonsense is His Highness the Ninth Prince talking about? ?

Xing Yucheng didn’t believe it, and after a long pause, he said, “This, this is impossible, right?”

Ye Shuo shrugged: “Whether it can be done or not, just wait and see.”

“Really, Ninth Uncle?” The little grandson came to offer condolences as soon as the young master left. As soon as he got closer, he heard these words, so he couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Ye Shuo nodded affirmatively: “Of course.”

The Sixth Prince in front couldn’t stand it any longer and turned his head: “Shuo’er, don’t teach the child bad things!”

The fifth prince, who had also heard this story, couldn’t help but sneer.

He said he would be jealous, so jealous that he wanted to replace him? Ha, ridiculous!
