Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

“Alright, alright, Master, there are no outsiders here, why are you being so polite?” Ye Shuo had finally straightened him out before, how could he change back?

Wu Yi glanced subconsciously, and indeed saw that all the palace servants around him had been sent out by him.

While Wu Yi was distracted, Ye Shuo pushed him onto the stool next to him without saying a word.

Wu Yi couldn’t resist and could only pick up the chopsticks tentatively. However, Ye Shuo’s first sentence made him freeze there.

“By the way, Master, you’re almost fifty, right? Have you ever thought about getting married, having a baby, etc.? If so, you’d better hurry up, otherwise it will be too late.”

“While you still have your beauty and figure, and you have great martial arts skills, there are still girls and widows who like you. In a few years, it will be really difficult.”

Yao Zhi, who was standing by, was almost choked to death by his sudden words.

Looking at Wu Yi again, he didn’t know whether to put down the chopsticks or not. After a long pause, he could only utter one sentence: “I have never thought of this before.”

What wife and children? These things have nothing to do with him since his first day of training. Decades have passed, it would be strange if Wu Yi could turn things around.

But Ye Shuo wanted him to have a home from the bottom of his heart. Ye Shuo didn’t mind asking Ding Ning to call him master, but others’ things are always not as good as your own, right?

Then it became Ye Shuo’s one-sided urging. Wu Yi kept shaking his head. After finally finishing the food in the bowl, Wu Yi couldn’t stand it anymore. After saying “I should go back to training”, he disappeared in an instant.

Ye Shuo’s eyes were full of regret.

Yao Zhi always felt that he was being pushed too hard by Prince Su and Prince Jin, and then he transferred his pain to Wu Yi. Poor Wu Yi…

At night, the palace maids cleared away the dishes and the room was brightly lit with candles. Ye Shuo and Yao Zhi were reading memorials and medical books respectively.

Ye Shuo felt that the scene before him was extremely tragic.

“Wait until the plague is over. I will transfer Xing Yucheng to my side no matter what.” Now is a special situation. He has to do both. Otherwise, the noise will be too complicated and the efficiency will inevitably be reduced. Later, Ye Shuo will have to be released. Otherwise, he will be too busy to handle it even if he is exhausted.

Coincidentally, Yao Zhi thought so too.

“I need to have a good rest after the plague is over.” She was almost sick of reading so many medical books recently.

“Come on, let’s not talk about this, go to sleep.”

Ye Shuo jumped onto the dragon bed and patted it with his hand.

The young man had beautiful eyebrows and eyes, and Yao Zhi was naturally moved, but…

“If the censors knew about this, they would cry out to the heavens and accuse us of being unruly.” Now, whenever Yao Zhi thought of that scene, she couldn’t help but want to laugh. ŘåŊŏᛒÈṨ

“What rules are there between husband and wife?” Just scold her, it won’t cost you anything, right?

Ye Shuo couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows: “Besides, when did you ever talk about the rules?”

Yao Zhi herself is a person who is not very bound by worldly matters.

“That’s true.” After hearing what he said, Yao Zhi no longer felt any psychological burden. She lifted the quilt and crawled in immediately.

The young couple quarrelled for a while. Before going to bed, Yao Zhi suddenly thought of something.

Isn’t it said that there is always someone beside the emperor to record the emperor’s sleeping, how come it has been so long since I saw him?

What Yao Zhi didn’t know was that seven or eight metres away outside the palace, the Ye Ting Ling, holding a pen, was looking at the newly appointed Si Li Jian’s seal-holding eunuch Wang Lu in front of him, and he was about to cry.

How could he write this? If he did, would His Majesty forgive him?

But he had to write it, so the Ye Ting Ling almost exhausted all his efforts to make the booklet not so ridiculous.

He glanced at Xiaoluzi, which was in the middle of Wanglu, and nodded, quite satisfied.

Seeing this, the Ye Ting Ling breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally, in a state of half-sleep and half-wakefulness, Yao Zhi said, “I have learned a little about the cause of this plague from the imperial physician of the Imperial Hospital, and I have some ideas in my mind, but this alone is not enough. I need to go outside and meet enough people who are infected.”

Without enough patients, how could they develop an effective prescription?

Ye Shuo certainly didn’t want her to take risks. Now he was the emperor and she was the queen. There were so many people in the world who could be used, why did it have to be her?

Ye Shuo was also a very selfish person. He wished that everyone around him was fine and nothing would happen to them. But in the end, he nodded: “…Yeah.”

“good.”

Then, Ye Shuo even gave her an idea.

“With just a few of you, a dozen people is definitely not enough. You might as well find some more helpers.”

Yao Zhi laughed when she heard this: “Most people are illiterate, let alone know medical skills. If they mess around, it will not only fail to help, but will cause more trouble.”

What Ye Shuo was talking about was not a doctor at all.

“You don’t need them to know so much. You just need to teach them how to prevent and deal with patients after they are found, how to assist you, and how to regulate sick people.”

If such a role were placed in modern times, it would be called a nurse.

Training such a group of people in advance will definitely reduce a lot of the burden on Yao Zhi and other imperial doctors.

Yao Zhi was no longer sleepy all of a sudden. After weighing the options, she felt that this idea seemed very good.

“I suddenly feel that He Xiang and the others seem to have underestimated you.”

However, Ye Shuo hurriedly shook his head after hearing this: “No, no, no, please don’t praise me like that, I can’t bear it.”

If everyone thinks this way, who would be willing to help him with his work?

The next morning, Yao Zhi went out before daybreak. By the time Ye Shuo had washed up, dressed, and finished breakfast, it was almost dawn.  

The court officials looked numb, having long been accustomed to this.

When Ye Shuo arrived at the Xuanzheng Hall, he sat on the dragon chair and yawned as he said, “If you have something to say, then talk about it. If not, then leave the court.”

When the plague is over, he will definitely change the time of this morning court session.

Completely unaware of what the emperor above him was planning, the moment Ye Shuo finished speaking, the censor was the first to stand up and say, “Your Majesty, you and the Empress, this, this is not right!” How could an emperor and an empress share the same bedroom and sleep on the same bed?

Ye Shuo was speechless: “It’s already this late, why are you guys still focusing on the trivial matters between a couple? Has the plague been cured? Are the people living and working in peace and contentment? If not, then pick the most important ones and solve them first. Okay, shut up, next one!”

Without waiting for the censor to speak again, Ye Shuo pointed decisively at Prime Minister He.

Prime Minister He didn’t have any way to cure the plague, but he had a plan for the national treasury. He couldn’t get money from the people at the moment, so he could only find a way to get money from the rich merchants.

Among the four classes of people, scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants are the last but the richest. Now that they have money, they begin to think about pursuing fame and fortune.

For the emperor, fame and fortune were just a matter of words.

Ye Shuo thought about it and thought this was a good idea, so he nodded: “Okay, I agree.”

The plague issue came to an end for the time being, and Ye Shuo started asking questions about himself again.

“By the way, I asked you to help me draft my title and reign title. Have you finished it?”

This time Ye Shuo learned his lesson and didn’t choose the words himself. He asked them to choose for themselves. Ye Shuo wanted to see what these people in front of him could choose for him.

If they dared to treat him the same way they treated Xiao Ming, Ye Shuo guaranteed that they would not have an easy life.

The moment the words fell, He Xiang and the others fell silent.

Speaking of this, He Xiang and others felt extremely worried, and felt that it was more difficult for them than the plague, because they knew in their hearts that if they failed to handle it well and made the emperor unhappy, he would definitely lose his temper again.

It’s just a mere title. There’s no need to make him unhappy over such a small matter. You will be the one who suffers then.

He Xiang hesitated for a long time and asked tentatively: “Zhending… What does His Majesty think?”

Ye Shuo frowned: “Is there anyone who is more majestic and domineering?”

How long have you been here? What have you done? If you want to be powerful and domineering, why don’t you turn the world upside down!

He Xiang held his breath, but he didn’t dare to say anything, and decisively changed to another one.

“So…Yongxi?”

Ye Shuo: “Anything else?”

He Xiang: “…”

“Wanhe? Zhenhong? Rongkang?”

It can be seen that He Xiang and his companions did not slack off and tried their best to fit him into these words with excellent meanings.

However, when he said it, He Xiang still felt a pang of heart pain. He Xiang, Shangshu Ling and others thought they could hold it in, but as soon as they finished speaking, Ye Shuo said something.

“Forget it. After listening for a long time, I feel that Yongxi is better. Let’s choose this one.”

After talking for a long time, he finally chose the second one.

“Just barely, worthy of me.”

“Okay, let’s adjourn.”

“Oh, by the way, Wei Wen, come with me.”

He still despised it, he actually still despised it!

Looking at the young man’s back, He Xiang and others were speechless for a long time. When He Xiang and others’ students looked over, they found that the teachers’ hands were now trembling slightly.

*

“…Lord He and the others must be very angry.” Wei Wen didn’t even dare to imagine how they felt at the moment.

Ye Shuo thought, this is just the beginning, but on the surface, he asked another question.

“Is there any news from Lucheng? What’s going on with Beiting and Chen?”

Upon hearing this, Wei Wen’s expression became serious: “As Your Majesty expected, there have indeed been unusual movements between the two countries in recent times.”

The Great Zhou had lost two emperors in a row, and now the one who came to power is the notorious one. It would be strange if Beiting and Chen could endure it.

“Think of a way to give them something to do.” So that we don’t have to stare at them all day long.

“By the way, let more people from Lucheng go to Chen State to investigate, especially the miasma on the border of Chen State. I think it should be useful when the time comes.”

Lu City is far away from the Emperor of the Great Zhou, and the people sent there to garrison are not without ulterior motives. However, Ye Shuo once sent someone to deliver a black box. After seeing the objects in the black box, the people stationed in Lu City suddenly became obedient.

“yes.”

After Wei Wen left, Ye Shuo stood on a high place and looked into the distance.

It is true that the Great Zhou is weak now, but he still hopes that Chen State and Beiting will not be tactless. Otherwise, don’t blame him for being rude.

After so many years, with new and old grudges, these two countries are really annoying.
