Forced to Ascend the Throne after Transmigrating

“No, Old Seven is crazy?” The fourth prince blurted out, but then he found that something seemed wrong.

The second prince pondered for a moment, his eyes showed understanding, and then he smiled: “I see.”

Even among the brothers, Old Seven’s brain is first-class, he can’t fail to see that it is too late to do anything now, unless… he has a reason to do it.

Sure enough, the scene soon switched to the Seventh Prince’s Mansion. Noticing Old Seven’s obviously abnormal face and the bowl of soup beside him, everyone’s heart suddenly paused.

So that’s it, Old Seven is sick, and the disease is very serious, otherwise he can’t choose to do it now.

Calculating the time, Old Seven is now more than 60 years old, which is considered a long life. After all, his father was about this age when he died. In comparison, those who live to 70 or 80 or even older are very few.

Looking at the white-haired Seventh Prince now, and thinking of Xiao Jiu who is still energetic every day despite being over 60 years old, the more people think about it, the more they feel something is wrong.

Isn’t Xiaojiu’s vitality too strong? He has been tirelessly fond of tossing since he was a child. If they remember correctly, the old Duke Zhenguo lived to be over 90 years old before he died.

Originally, everyone thought that the word “gene” that Xiaojiu said from time to time was just nonsense, and no one took it seriously before. Now it seems that it is not the case.

Among them, Emperor Taicheng frowned the most. Just when everyone was in doubt, Xiaojiu’s carriage finally slowly stopped at the door of the Seventh Prince’s Mansion.

That’s right, the Seventh Prince is Xiaojiu’s brother after all. Now that he is seriously ill, Xiaojiu naturally wants to visit him.

Noticing the strange expression of the Seventh Prince when he saw Xiaojiu, combined with the previous scene of a well-trained soldier pretending to be a bandit, the prince and others couldn’t help but smack their lips, thinking that the son of the Seventh Prince was too arrogant, and he would have a hard time in the future.

Especially the crown prince, who finally met someone who was even more outrageous than his own son, and he felt much better.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that this was probably the best son of the Seventh Prince. Even his gentle and harmless appearance could not suppress his ambition. He would not give up no matter what when he saw a little hope. It was evident that power could move people’s hearts and make a rational person go crazy little by little, until he would either be successful or fall off a cliff.

The crown prince and his friends felt that this prince was not far from the second possibility.

By the way, this prince would not really think that his father was so powerful, right? He fought back and forth with the three princesses under Xiaojiu’s nose. Did he think Xiaojiu was blind? In this way, he was too careless. Sure enough, since their elders died one after another, it was probably because they had lived a stable life for too long, and the remaining royal children were worse than the previous generation.

Thinking of this, everyone shook their heads.

However, the prince in the picture was completely unaware. After respectfully inviting Xiaojiu into the room, he tactfully withdrew and stood outside the door in a very polite manner.

Judging from his appearance and behaviour, this prince is qualified.

As Xiaojiu and the sick Seventh Prince recalled the past, everyone’s memories were involuntarily pulled back to decades ago. Seeing the two talking about the father and the sixth prince, and finally the prince, they couldn’t help but sigh. ṙ�

“…It’s been so long, it’s hard for them to still remember what I did.” After a while, the prince put down the folding fan in his hand and let out a long breath.

Emperor Taicheng and others looked at him and didn’t say anything. The second prince even showed a smile on his face.

What they didn’t say was that no matter what the prince’s ending was, for a long time, the prince was also a mountain that they yearned for, but they couldn’t get over it anyway.

Even if he finally became the emperor as he wished, Emperor Taicheng couldn’t forget it.

Originally, everyone was just guessing, but when they heard the Seventh Prince’s words [“It’s a pity that he is not as good as the three princesses after all.”], they were almost certain.

Although the Seventh Prince and Xiaojiu had never revealed it, they did reach a certain agreement in silence. As for the content of the agreement, they could almost guess it.

Unfortunately, until now, the prince knew nothing about it, which doomed him to failure.

Regarding the power transfer, the atmosphere in the small courtyard became a little serious as the two people talked more and more tacitly, but soon, the Seventh Prince’s words suddenly broke this seriousness. The Seventh Prince’s words [“If there is a chance in the next life, I really hope to be your child. Even if it is not a prince, I will accept it as a princess.”] can be said to be resounding.

The small courtyard fell into silence in an instant. Even if they didn’t stretch their necks to look forward, several people could probably guess how bad their father’s expression was now.

The prince and the others originally thought it was very funny. After all, it was too funny for the Seventh Prince to say such things with wrinkles all over his face. But after thinking about it for a while, they gradually stopped laughing.

Suddenly, they felt that… what the Seventh Prince said made sense!

From an outsider’s point of view, Xiaojiu might be a weirdo. After all, he would do some jaw-dropping things from time to time, which was really a headache. But from the perspective of the princesses, Xiaojiu was almost doing his best to plan for their future, and polishing them bit by bit, patiently and meticulously. He was neither too relaxed nor too nervous, but enough to make them grow into a qualified emperor. All the things they learned in the past few decades were enough for them to resist most of the risks in the future.

Compared with the Gu-raising model of the old man, the father, it can be said that there is a world of difference. This person is like a biological child.

… Oops, oh no, why am I suddenly a little moved? The Seventh Prince is indeed a little better than them.

Having lived for decades, these eyes can see through everything.

Noticing that the Fourth Prince and the others looked different, Emperor Jingwen always felt something was wrong: “… What are you thinking about?”

Seeing his father looking over, the Fourth Prince and the others shook their heads in unison, saying seriously: “Nothing.”

Fortunately, Xiaojiu refused later. For some reason, the Crown Prince and the others were relieved.

After all, how could such a good thing be monopolised by the Seventh Prince!

Perhaps because he knew that this was the last time the two would meet, the Seventh Prince finally tried to retain him.

[“Your Majesty, for the sake of our past relationship, please send me off for the last time.”]

Faced with the Seventh Prince’s last request, Xiaojiu naturally would not refuse.

And when everyone watched Xiaojiu drink the cup of tea, the reactions of several people were also different.

The Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince frowned subconsciously, thinking that Xiaojiu was too careless. Even if the Seventh Prince was now terminally ill, he should not be so unguarded. After all, the Seventh Prince was still making other plans, wasn’t he?

The Second Prince and Emperor Taicheng were thinking, so that’s how it is. When Xiaojiu drank the cup of tea, the Seventh Prince had to be cruel no matter how reluctant he was.

Both sides spoke almost in unison, but the answers they got were completely opposite. The Crown Prince and the Fourth Prince were stunned, and finally reacted.

“Is Xiaojiu… reminding the Seventh Prince that it’s time to take action?”

Without waiting for the Second Prince and Emperor Taicheng to answer, the Fourth Prince and the Crown Prince already had the answer in their hearts, and then, the two of them twitched their mouths uncontrollably.

How to say it, when it comes to insidiousness, it’s really them!

And Xiaojiu, who unknowingly learned the style of the Sixth Prince and the others. Or maybe he knew it from the beginning to the end, but he just never used it.

This cup of tea is like a signal, indicating that everything in the Seventh Prince’s Mansion is under Xiaojiu’s control. How to say it, it was the Seventh Prince who wanted to make trouble at the beginning, but in the end he was played by Xiaojiu. The Seventh Prince realised that something was wrong and wanted to withdraw, but it was too late.

At this point, the Seventh Prince had no choice but to bite the bullet.

As expected, the Seventh Prince’s son’s rebellion was soon discovered by Dingning and others. The Second Prince seriously suspected that this was actually part of the teaching. Xiaojiu did not intervene directly this time, but watched Dingning and others’ actions very calmly. Until the end, with Dingning and others’ orderly actions, the Second Prince and others clearly saw Xiaojiu in the picture breathe a sigh of relief, as if he had put down a burden, and showed an unprecedented relaxed smile.

As for some people who died inexplicably in the middle, it can only be said that it is no longer important.

The final ending ended with the Seventh Prince killing his own son. Looking at the extremely tragic scene in the picture, even Emperor Jingwen couldn’t help but gasp.

“…It’s really cruel.” Even the Second Prince felt cold in his heart.

Emperor Taicheng knew that if the Seventh Prince did not do this, there would be more people who died in the end. Since it was obvious that he could not get that position, he would pick out the children with delusions and get rid of them, so that the remaining honest and decent children could be preserved.

Having ambition is a good thing, but having ambition without great ability is just a burden, just like a flower that suddenly blooms in the grass. What the Seventh Prince has to do is to take the initiative to pick this flower that should not have appeared.

As for the Fifth Prince and the Eighth Prince who have been watching with great enthusiasm, don’t look at them laughing happily now, as if everything has nothing to do with them. After a few years, they will die one after another. If their sons don’t have such ambitions, it will be fine. If one of them has bad intentions, whether their bloodline can continue to be preserved is still a problem.

Now that Xiaojiu, the biological brother, is still there, everything’s still fine. When Xiaojiu doesn’t care about things, it will be the turn of Dingning and others whose bloodline is even thinner to make the decision. That will not be a problem that can be solved by the death of one person.

However, if the Fifth Prince and the Eighth Prince had this brain, they would not be in such a state now.

Just as Emperor Taicheng shook his head and sighed, the Seventh Prince, who had just committed suicide in an extremely tragic way, appeared in front of everyone.

Looking at the stunned old man in front of him, Emperor Jingwen smiled and said, “You and Xiaojiu are a good match.”

Looking at the brothers who had died many years ago sitting there neatly, and looking at the screen playing in front of them, what is there for the Seventh Prince to not understand?

Could it be that these people have been watching what happened in the world all the time? ?

Thinking of this, the Seventh Prince had no time to feel sorry for his failure. After reacting, cold sweat “swish” came out. If so, doesn’t it mean that they already know what he did?

The Seventh Prince raised his head with a stiff neck, and then heard the prince’s words: “The reason why Dingning was able to ascend the throne in the end was that you, the Seventh Brother, made an indispensable contribution.”

“Good job, really good.”

The Seventh Prince: “…”

With the words of someone unknown on the screen [ In March of the following year, the spring was bright and beautiful, and the eldest princess ascended the throne and was named Ming’an ], Emperor Jingwen could no longer hold back, picked up the broom next to him and beat the Seventh Prince wildly.

Poor Seventh Prince, he is old, but still can’t escape the fate of being taught a lesson by his own father.

Just as the Seventh Prince was unable to dodge and screamed, another familiar ghost suddenly pushed the door open and walked in. Then, his voice like a huge bell echoed in everyone’s ears –

“Decades have passed, everyone, it’s time to reincarnate.”

Everyone’s heart tightened when they heard this.

Although it’s almost time, after all, even if there are many ghosts stranded in the underworld, after decades, it should be their turn, but… the person they have been waiting for has not come yet!

Emperor Jingwen paused, then suddenly turned back to look in the direction of the Wangchuan River –

as expected, there was still nothing there.

Up to now, the group of ghosts who should have swum across the river today have already disembarked two hours ago.

And in the picture, Xiaojiu is still alive and well.

It’s too late…
