Yuan Chen said: "This is what my uncle promised me personally. When we were in Nanyue last time, he planned to give the country to his son, but he didn't want it and asked him to leave it to his nephew. He happily agreed."
He helped Emperor Beichen walk to the bedroom: "Actually, it doesn't matter what your surname is in this world. What matters is whether the ruler has the ability.
You have to believe that your grandson is definitely capable of this. Whether his surname is Xiao or Yuan, he is a descendant of our Yuan family."
Emperor Beichen was persuaded by him and said: "I agree, but I am afraid that the civil and military officials in the court will not agree."
Yuan Chen said: "Don't worry, I can handle it."
After hearing what he said, Emperor Beichen had nothing to worry about. No matter what his surname was, his grandson was still his grandson. He just wanted to abdicate as soon as possible and make his grandson happy.
He said: "Okay, there's no need to send it away. Go back and explain to Jialan quickly so that she doesn't have to think too much."
Yuan Chen said yes and left the palace.
Ye Jinming and Mu Rufeng were waiting for him in front of the palace gate. When someone came out, they greeted him.
Yuan Chen glanced at the two of them and asked, "What, do you have something to say?"
Ye Jinming said: "I don't think you handled this matter properly today. Chen Yan advised you to establish a concubine, but you sent his daughter to become a monk. If this spreads, it will damage the reputation of your Highness the Crown Prince."
Yuan Chen asked him: "What should I do with the orphan? Decide to choose a concubine?"
Ye Jinming's lips twitched and he said: "That's not what I meant. I just think your handling was too arbitrary and you didn't consider the consequences."
Yuan Chen frowned and was about to speak when he saw a guard coming over in a hurry and said: "Your Highness, something has happened. Someone is making trouble in front of the Prince's Mansion. Go back and have a look."
Yuan Chen's expression changed when he heard this, and he hurried towards the direction of the Prince's Mansion.
At this time, a girl was kneeling in front of the Prince's Mansion. She was dressed in a simple and elegant white dress. She kowtowed in the direction of the Prince's Mansion and shouted: "Please help the Crown Princess."
Xiao Jialan took Song Wan'er out of the house and saw that the battle in front of her was quite big.
Kneeling in front of the door was an unfamiliar girl, and because of her, many people gathered around and were talking about it.
Xiao Jialan didn't know what happened, so she walked over and asked, "Who are you, and why are you kneeling here?"
The girl had a good appearance and looked pitiful.
She leaned over and bowed and said, "My daughter Chen Zhaojun is the daughter of the Minister of Rites. This morning my father advised the Crown Prince to choose a concubine. He didn't want to offend His Majesty the Crown Prince, so he sent my daughter to Baiyun Nunnery to become a monk."
My daughter has never had other thoughts about His Highness the Crown Prince. Her father advised His Highness the Crown Prince to choose a concubine. It was also his duty as an official and he had never done anything wrong.
But because of His Highness the Crown Prince's likes and dislikes, my daughter's future will be ruined.
My daughter is so innocent, I hope the Crown Princess will give her justice."
Xiao Jialan understood. She raised her eyebrows and said, "This is just your one-sided statement, Miss Chen. The truth of the matter will not be known until my husband comes back. Please wait a little longer, Miss Chen."
Chen Zhaojun was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect the Crown Princess to ask her to wait.
She knelt on the ground, feeling a little uneasy.
Not long after, Yuan Chen, Ye Jinming and others rushed back. On the way there, they already knew what happened.
Yuan Chen walked over quickly, and when he saw that Xiao Jialan was disturbed, he looked a little unhappy, so he walked towards her and said, "Why are you out?"
Xiao Jialan said: "This girl is complaining in front of our house, I want to come and take a look."
Yuan Chen held her hand, turned to Song Wan'er and said, "Go and bring a soft chair to the Crown Princess."
