Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

Chapter 14: Winner



Each of them is a tough guy.

He is just a few years old, and he is already like this. What will happen when he grows up?

Ye Shuo felt his scalp tingling just thinking about it. This scene made him even more determined to never participate in the fight for the throne.

After hearing Su Qiu’s exclamation, Concubine Rong appeared in front of Ye Shuo almost immediately.

Subconsciously, she hurriedly pushed away the obstacle in front of her, and then nervously checked Ye Shuo’s condition, fearing that he might be hurt.

Seeing that the little baby only had a little dust on his face and was not injured, Concubine Rong breathed a sigh of relief.

She didn’t think too much about it at the time, so she didn’t notice what the obstacle was that she pushed away.

Caught off guard, the Sixth Prince felt himself being thrown away by a strong force. By the time he reacted, he had already fallen heavily to the ground.

Seeing that everyone was surrounding the little prince nervously, without even giving him a glance, the Sixth Prince was extremely silent for a while, then he brushed off the grass debris on his body and stood up.

Ye Shuo felt that he was being manipulated and was completely dizzy.

After a long while, Concubine Rong finally remembered to look back, and then she saw the scratch on the Sixth Prince’s forehead.

Concubine Rong was stunned at first, then became furious.

If the Sixth Prince had not reacted in time, it would be her son who would have been injured!

Concubine Rong couldn’t bear to think about how painful it would be if such a long cut appeared on her son’s head!

The more serious the Sixth Prince’s injuries were, the angrier Concubine Rong became.

Without giving it much thought, she spoke loudly, “Mammy Jing, Mammy Yu, the two of you, bring someone to capture those two people on the rockery!”

“Yes!”

The two maids received the order and rushed forward aggressively with a few young eunuchs.

The fifth prince and the seventh prince were caught red-handed.

When he was caught, the Fifth Prince remained very calm. After all, he was not the one who did it, so couldn’t he just push the responsibility away?

Unfortunately, the Fifth Prince was still too young and didn’t know that once someone determined you were guilty, no matter how you defended yourself, it would be useless.

Concubine Rong was almost laughing at his words: “How old is the Seventh Prince? Without your help, can he climb up the rockery?” Concubine Rong was a little impatient, but it didn’t mean she was a fool.

When the Fifth Prince heard this, he couldn’t help but secretly say “bad news”.

I actually forgot about this.

It was indeed he who pulled the seventh prince up there at that time.

However, the Fifth Prince remained calm, as he already understood what his status as a prince meant.

Even the Queen Mother would not punish them easily, let alone a mere Concubine Rong.

“You slave dogs, let me go quickly. If you hurt me and my brother, can you bear the consequences?”

As if he was saying this on purpose for Concubine Rong to hear, the Fifth Prince kicked the eunuch who was holding his arm.

After hearing this, the palace maids around did not dare to move anymore. They turned around and looked at Concubine Rong with embarrassment.

This… this is the emperor’s offspring. If anything goes wrong with him, they really won’t be able to explain.

Seeing them retreat, the Fifth Prince became even more proud, and even looked up at Concubine Rong provocatively.

I had heard from my mother a long time ago that this woman was rampant and annoying, and when I saw her today, she was just like that.

Just consider it as revenge for my mother.

Concubine Rong noticed his expression and her face turned blue with anger.

Seeing this, Ye Shuo, who was held tightly in Concubine Rong’s arms, couldn’t help but sigh.

This kid is still too young. If he didn’t live in this palace, there would be plenty of ways to torture him.

Ye Shuo, a newcomer, came up with a lot of ideas in just a few breaths, not to mention his mother, a veteran in the palace.

By then, the Fifth Prince would probably want his mother’s people to catch him and beat him up.

It is true that Concubine Rong may be short-sighted in some aspects, but she is really not stupid.

The Fifth Prince really pissed her off this time.

“Since you want to see it, I will let you see it today.” When it comes to arrogance and domineering, Concubine Rong is number one in the palace. Who is the Fifth Prince?

“Someone, please bring Concubine Shu and Xu Guirong over to me!”

The Fifth Prince finally started to panic: “What do you mean, what do you want to do by inviting my mother here???”

Silly child, my mother can’t touch you, but can’t she touch your mother?

Although Shufei and Xu Guirong were indeed innocent, especially Xu Guirong, her son was the one who took the blame, and she was also implicated, which was really miserable.

But now Ye Shuo couldn’t speak, so naturally he couldn’t plead for them mother and son. He could only spend more time with his mother, hoping that she would calm down soon.

When Concubine Shu received the news, her head suddenly buzzed.

Tell me, why would my own son provoke her for no reason?

Didn’t he see that even the Queen couldn’t do anything to her? He even attacked her son. What’s the difference between this and pulling out a tiger’s beard?

Shufei is already a mother, and she has also lost a child, so she naturally understands what the newborn little prince means to Rong Guifei.

She had no choice but to secretly ask her personal maid to pass the message to the emperor, hoping that the emperor would save them for the sake of the second prince.

About half an incense stick of time later, Concubine Shu and Xu Guirong hurried to the Imperial Garden. When they saw the blood-stained cloth on the ground, their hearts skipped a beat at the same time and their faces turned pale.

Then they took another look at the swaddling clothes in Concubine Rong’s arms… Fortunately, it wasn’t this child.

As for the Sixth Prince standing aside, he was subconsciously ignored by the two.

“Kneel down.” Seeing the two of them, Concubine Rong felt hatred in her heart and said in a cold voice.

You know, this imperial garden is paved with pebbles.

How painful would it be if anyone actually knelt down?

The fifth prince immediately became anxious: “Mother, don’t do it!”

But, how can she really refuse to do so just because he said no?

A higher-ranking official can crush a commoner to death. If the Imperial Concubine punishes the Shufei, how could the Shufei not listen?

Shufei sighed inwardly, and knelt down together with Xu Guirong, supported by her personal maid.

The seventh prince couldn’t control himself and burst into tears.

Xu Guirong was heartbroken seeing this, but there was nothing she could do.

The Fifth Prince finally realized that he was wrong and understood why everyone in the palace was afraid of the Imperial Concubine.

Unfortunately, it’s too late.

Punishing the mother for the son is a cruel move.

Ye Shuo felt that he and his mother were becoming more and more like villains at this moment.

“Since the Fifth Prince was raised by you, and he made a mistake today, you should kneel here for half an hour on his behalf.” After all, Concubine Shu was the biological mother of the two princes. Even Concubine Rong could not go too far. If it was Xu Guirong’s child who was the mastermind, Concubine Rong would make her knees crippled!

Although it was only half an hour, it was still quite unbearable.

The fifth prince was still cursing: “Noble Concubine Rong, how dare you treat my mother like this? Just wait, when my second brother comes back one day, I will definitely make you pay!”

Concubine Rong paused while caressing her son’s face and said, “If you say one more word, I will make Concubine Shu kneels for another cup of tea.”

“You–“

The fifth prince completely collapsed.

It is no exaggeration to say that this scene is the childhood shadow of the Fifth Prince. Now that he can meet her, he will probably become obedient for a long time.

The other side.

Emperor Jingwen soon learned the news from the harem, but he did not intend to care.

After all, it was indeed the Fifth Prince who was at fault in this matter. Moreover, at such a young age, he actually pushed his young brother to take the blame for himself. He really deserves a lesson.

“Just keep an eye on it and don’t go too far.”

Once these words were spoken, the outcome of the matter was basically determined.

After waiting for the emperor for a long time, Concubine Shu gradually realized what was going on. No matter how unwilling she was, she had to suppress it at this moment.

Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and finally she felt better. Concubine Rong put down the teacup in her hand and looked at the imperial physician beside her: “How is it, will the Sixth Prince have a scar on his face in the future?”

The doctor shook his head: “It shouldn’t be. This wound looks long, but it’s actually not deep. Children recover quickly, so it will heal soon.”

“Well, thank you for your help.” Concubine Rong nodded and said, “I remember that your Imperial Hospital has several special healing medicines for scar removal. Remember to give them to the Sixth Prince.”

Concubine Rong has always been clear about rewards and punishments, especially since the Sixth Prince helped her son block those stones, she was naturally grateful.

Unexpectedly, the Sixth Prince caught the Imperial Concubine’s eye because of this incident.

The imperial physician agreed without hesitation.

Turning around again, Concubine Rong looked at the maids brought by the Sixth Prince and said, “And you, if I see you neglecting the Sixth Prince again, you’ll be in trouble!”

“I dare not.” Upon hearing this, the palace maid hurriedly knelt down to show her loyalty.

“It’s getting late. You’re wearing thin clothes and you’re injured. The servants can’t serve you well. Why don’t you move to my palace temporarily and leave after your head injury heals?”

If you give me a peach, I will repay you with a jade. Concubine Rong did not even consider whether the emperor would agree.

Anyway, if the emperor does not agree or feels it is inappropriate, he will naturally send someone to notify us.

“Thank you so much, Imperial Concubine Rong!” The Sixth Prince had a look of gratitude and was touched, and he added a bit of caution, which made everyone’s heart softened.

Poor child.

No one could have imagined that such a seemingly ordinary conflict might have been tampered with by someone.

Even the Fifth Prince could not guess it even if he was beaten to death. There is a saying that goes, “A mantis stalks a cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.” He thought he had found a scapegoat, but he didn’t expect to make wedding clothes for others.

In this round, the Sixth Prince may become the biggest winner.

Ye Shuo’s whole body was broken as he watched from the side.

Silly mother, you actually got fooled by a five-year-old child. Little did you know that bringing the Sixth Prince to Qiuwu Palace was truly inviting a wolf into the house.

Perhaps at the beginning the Sixth Prince simply wanted to change his current life, but after he gradually got used to the luxury of Qiuwu Palace, there was no guarantee that he would not desire more.

Ye Shuo remembered that there was a phrase called “the cuckoo takes over the magpie’s nest”, right?

The turtledove kills the magpie’s child and can naturally take its place.

……Help.

God bless, the Sixth Prince will evolve to this level later, and later.

[T/L = He is referring to the concept where the real son was neglected due to adopted one {same cliché story of real and fake}]
