Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Chapter 162: Decision

(T/L NOTE: Everyone thank the buyers of {330+} chapters, that you got to read these bonus chapters!)

Ye Shuo and Wu Yi exchanged two moves, and Ye Shuo was controlled by Wu Yi.

Although Ye Shuo didn’t use his full strength, it was obvious that Wu Yi didn’t do that either, so there was still a certain gap between the two.

“It hurts, it hurts, Master, please spare my life!”

The captured Ye Shuo felt a sharp pain in his shoulder and couldn’t help but scream.

Wu Yi was stunned for a moment and subconsciously let go.

“Your Highness, the Emperor has ordered that you please follow me.”

Ye Shuo had no choice but to be forced to obey.

Along the way, Ye Shuo tried to find out what had happened. Suddenly, his cheap father called him back and sent his cheap master over.

But Wu Yi was a secret guard after all, and he kept his mouth shut. He didn’t reveal any information at all. Ye Shuo had no choice but to give up.

Ye Shuo thought that he had behaved well recently and had not committed any crime. In the palace, his mother Concubine, Jianjian, and his grandfather’s family were doing well. So when Ye Shuo saw the brothers and uncles in the palace, his first reaction was –

“Hey, it’s so lively today, are you planning to have some kind of party?”

Ye Shuo quickly filtered through all the important dates, and then froze, OK, it seems there isn’t one…

Emperor Jingwen felt a headache when he saw his son who was totally unaware that he had offended the public.

Then, Emperor Jingwen spoke in front of the expectant eyes of the eldest prince, Prince Su, and Prince Jin: “From now on, you should not go out again. Stay in the palace.”

“When your stubborn nature is worn away, I will let you leave the palace.”

Caught off guard, Ye Shuo: “Ah?”

*

“So, why is this happening…”

Ye Shuo racked his brains but couldn’t figure out the reason. He just felt that he was extremely innocent.

Ye Shuo, who had only played for two months before being forced to return to Qiuwu Palace, looked completely depressed. He lay on the table, feeling weak and wanting to cry but unable to.

Jian Jian, who was practising calligraphy nearby, could not help but sneer when she heard this: “You deserve it!”

Bad brother, stinky brother, he went out to play for so long and didn’t even call her!

After listening to the whole process, Jianjian didn’t feel pity for him at all. He was simply hateful. She would not be fooled by his pitiful face.

For the first time ever, the imperial concubine held the same attitude as her daughter and was also critical of her son. After all, Ye Shuo had been away for two months and had not thought about coming back, so the imperial concubine was naturally unhappy.

After being caught and scolded by two people, one big and one small, Ye Shuo could only run away in fear.

“I don’t want to do that either! But it’s really fun outside.”

“I’ve lived for sixteen years and have only been out a few times. It’s understandable that I couldn’t control my emotions for a while…”

This palace looks big, but no matter how big a place is, you will get bored if you stay there for too long.

When Ye Shuo was in modern times, he would fly here or there every day, whether it was domestic or foreign. He would drive away when he felt like it. It was quite good that he could be patient for so long without going crazy. He was quite restrained, okay?

“Mom, my son is so uncomfortable, wuwuwuwuwu.”

The more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. Ye Shuo lay on the imperial concubine’s lap and began to sob: “They don’t play by themselves, and they don’t let their son play either. They are too much!”

It was not that Ye Shuo was careless. He was so happy that he forgot about his trip. On the other hand, Ye Shuo would never have thought that he could continue to live in the palace after he became an adult.

Apart from the prince, who else could have such treatment? No wonder Ye Shuo indulged himself a little.

Well now, the impossible has come true.

It turns out that he can’t predict every situation.

Ye Shuo became more and more sad.

Even though she knew he was pretending and wasn’t really crying, the imperial concubine still couldn’t help feeling a little distressed.

Indeed, staying in this square palace is not as free as being outside.

Before the imperial concubine married Emperor Jingwen, she was the daughter of a duke. Coming from a military family, she did not have so many concerns. She often played polo, climbed mountains, and had parties with a group of young sisters. Naturally, she knew how happy the outside world was.

The imperial concubine could still understand her son’s current mood.

But she couldn’t do anything about it, it was all the emperor’s will.

“Shuo’er, don’t cry, Shuo’er, don’t cry, just bear with it a little longer, alas…”

“The eldest prince and his brothers are such fools. How could they do this?” The imperial concubine suddenly felt that the eldest prince and his brothers were going too far. They were bullying him by relying on his age.

Jianjian: “…”

Seeing her mother’s attitude change so quickly, Jianjian was stunned.

Put yourself in her shoes. If your brother was hunting, fishing, or listening to books while you were studying, you would also be angry. But your eldest brother and his brothers have good tempers and didn’t even beat him up.

“Mother, please don’t spoil my brother too much.” Jianjian couldn’t help but say.

But obviously, the current imperial concubine won’t listen.

As expected, my brother’s current state is closely related to my father and mother.

At the beginning, Jianjian’s attitude was very firm. Just because Ye Shuo didn’t come back to see her and her mother for two months, Jianjian would not easily forgive him.

But soon, the little white tiger cub and six puppies were sent to the palace.

How could Jianjian resist the attacks of the animal cubs?

Especially the little white tiger, with its cute appearance, big paw pads, and fierce roar, almost no one can refuse it.

“Call me brother, and I’ll let you touch it.”

Seeing Ye Shuo holding the little tiger by the scruff of the neck, Jian Jian could no longer sit still.

Jianjian, who didn’t know the habits of cats, subconsciously felt that the little tiger must be in pain when she saw this scene.

This is not Ye Shuo’s first time, he is already considered a veteran.

Jianjian almost pounced on the little white tiger and snatched it back from his brother’s clutches.

The brother and sister were playing and fighting. When it was time for dinner, Emperor Jingwen came almost on time. When he saw the little white tiger, he couldn’t help but frown: “You have been so busy recently that you can’t even go to the teahouse. Is it because of this little thing?”

“Of course.” Tigers are not easy to raise, especially a dying little tiger like this. In modern times, it would take professionals to rescue it. As a non-professional, you can imagine how much effort Ye Shuo would have to put in to revive it.

Emperor Jingwen listened to what he was chattering on and on, but he didn’t take it seriously. After all, Emperor Jingwen had only hunted tigers in his life and had never raised tigers, and he had no interest in such furry things.

Emperor Jingwen simply reminded him, “Just raise it for a few months, and when it grows up a bit, put it back in the hunting grounds.”

A tiger is a tiger after all, and even a cub of a few months old is already capable of hurting people.

“Be careful with its claws, or it will scratch you and hurt you.” Emperor Jingwen said with a hint of warning in his tone.

Perhaps it was the instinct of a wild animal, the little white tiger sensed something, and then huddled in a corner and began to sniff at people. The more he looked at this thing, the more dangerous it seemed. Emperor Jingwen frowned more and more: “If you really want to keep it, you can simply let the trainers in the palace train you for a few months, and then have them send it back to you when the time comes.”

They have forgotten that they are now members of the ruling class of the evil feudal society.

“How do animal trainers train?” Cats are different from canines, especially wolves and dogs. No matter how much they are trained, their obedience is not high. In ancient times, there were not all kinds of methods to train big cats, right?

Just when Ye Shuo was puzzled, he heard Emperor Jingwen say, “Of course, grind off the claws and teeth of the little thing.”

Without teeth and claws, no matter how big it is, it can’t hurt people. He can keep it as long as he wants.

Ye Shuo immediately shook his head upon hearing this: “Forget it then.”

He really couldn’t do this.

As he said that, Ye Shuo picked up the little white tiger again, and then he didn’t know how he did it, but after a few seconds, the little white tiger miraculously calmed down.

When Emperor Jingwen saw the scabbed scratches on his son’s hands, a “?” character appeared between his brows.

“Dad, you scared it.” Seeing that the little tiger he had coaxed with great difficulty was struggling again, Ye Shuo spoke helplessly.

Emperor Jingwen was furious: “I kindly reminded you, but you still…” He still didn’t appreciate it!

Seeing that his cheap father was about to lose his temper, Ye Shuo quickly changed the subject: “By the way, father, why didn’t you protect your son when you were in the Qinzheng Palace this afternoon?”

Thinking of how he had been scolded by so many people, Ye Shuo couldn’t help but look resentful.

“You even sent someone to bring this son back from the mansion.” Please, he has only been out for a short time, do you still have any humanity?

“How dare you say that.” Emperor Jingwen was almost amused by his shamelessness.

“Don’t you think about what you have done outside? Can your elder brother and others feel comfortable?” Not to mention the eldest prince and others, Emperor Jingwen didn’t feel happy at all.

The emperor is the supreme ruler and should be the freest person in the world, but he ends up living worse than his own son every day.

For a moment, Emperor Jingwen even felt that their roles were reversed.

“It would be fine if it was just your eldest brother, but you actually led your nephews astray, asking Yan’er and the others every day if they want to eat barbecue, or asking them to go fishing. This is just now, if it was before your eldest brother, he would have lost his temper long ago.”

“Do you think everyone has as much free time as you?”

Ye Shuo curled the corner of his mouth: “…Aren’t I kind-hearted?” If a child is locked up at home every day, he will probably get suffocated after a long time.

“Let’s not talk about this.” This time the tiger was no match for the wolves, so Ye Shuo accepted it.

“Dad, when are you going to let me out? I’m an adult prince, and I’m living in the palace all day. It’s ridiculous. The censors will gossip about me.”

Emperor Jingwen realised that if he was released, he would really not want to go home at all.

Therefore, Emperor Jingwen did not give a direct answer, but only asked: “Don’t you want to spend more time with your father, your mother, and Jianjian in this palace?”

Under normal circumstances, almost everyone would answer “yes”.

But the problem is that Ye Shuo dared to bet that as long as he said that word, his stepfather would definitely go with the flow and would definitely not let him leave.

So Ye Shuo thought about it, and despite his mother’s sharp, murderous gaze, he shook his head firmly: “No.”

“Since you want to, then you should be more… huh?” Emperor Jingwen was stunned.

Four people, including Wang Ziquan, looked over almost immediately.

Ye Shuo spoke the truth: “I’m sorry, Dad, Mom and Jian Jian. Now I want to go out of the palace and have fun.”

Emperor Jingwen was stunned at first, and then he became furious.

After that, Ye Shuo couldn’t get out at all.

If he wants to get out again, he will probably have to wait until next life.

In addition, he even had to continue studying with Lord Cen and the Grand Tutor. This time, Emperor Jingwen insisted that he learn what “filial piety” meant.

This was probably the first prince since the founding of the Great Zhou who left the palace to set up his own residence and then was sent back to go back to school.

After hearing the news and what he had said to his father, the eldest prince and others fell silent.

If he had said a few nice words, things wouldn’t have turned out like this.

When his not guilty sentence turned into life imprisonment, Ye Shuo felt that it was time for him to escape from prison, no, to run away completely.

There is no way, who told the people here, they can’t play!
