After two or three days of busy work, the Prince's Mansion was almost tidied up. Looking at the newly decorated mansion, Yuan Chen was very satisfied.
Mu Rufeng said: "After the wedding, His Majesty will abdicate. You have renovated the mansion and you are not afraid of waste."
Yuan Chen glanced at him and said: "I made an agreement with my father to wait until Jialan and I's child is born before ascending the throne, so I have to live in the house for a while after we get married, so naturally I have to make some repairs.
"
After a pause, he added: "There are many open courtyards above the house, you can choose whatever you want."
Mu Rufeng was stunned and asked: "What do you mean?"
Ye Jinming replied for Yuan Chen: "It means that we can live here in the future."
Mu Rufeng was shocked. He stared at Yuan Chen suspiciously and asked, "What are you planning again?"
Yuan Chen asked him, "Why, are you not happy?"
Mu Rufeng said: "I just think it's a bit strange. Logically speaking, you and Jialan are newly married and you shouldn't want to see us. Why are you so kind and leave us a yard so that we can come and live here?"
Ye Jinming sighed and said, "What else could be the reason? Naturally, I'm afraid that Jialan will be lonely if she lives here alone. You don't understand such a simple truth. I really wonder how you got such a brain?"
Mu Rufeng choked, who would have thought of this? But then again, Yuan Chen's doting on his wife was really outrageous.
He said: "Why do I feel that we have all become Jialan's dowry?"
Yuan Chen glanced over and asked, "Are you unwilling?"
Mu Rufeng was speechless. How dare he not be happy? He pulled Ye Jinming and said, "Let's go. His Highness the Crown Prince has spoken. Let's go pick a yard."
After saying that, he pulled Ye Jinming to the backyard without any explanation.
Yuan Chen smiled. Jialan was used to living in the Duke's Mansion, and she had Su Xinyue and Xin Ruyi accompanying her.
After getting married, she was asked to live in the Prince's Mansion, but his mansion was not as lively as the Duke's Mansion.
As the prince, he couldn't be with her all the time, and he didn't feel at ease leaving her here alone.
So the best way is to let all his friends move in and make it as lively as before.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the butler's voice coming from behind him: "His Royal Highness, Mr. Shen Xiang is here."
Yuan Chen said: "Please come in."
Not long after, Shen Huaiting strode over. He looked at the brand-new mansion, with red silk and red lanterns hanging everywhere. He felt festive at first glance.
He looked away and said with a smile: "His Royal Highness is very fast. This mansion has been decorated so quickly."
Yuan Chen saw a piece of paper in his hand and asked curiously: "What is this?"
Shen Huaiting handed over the portrait and said: "Wang Shouzhi sent a letter detailing the appearance of Prince Lanyuan of Mobei. This is the portrait painted by Tong Niang. It should be fifty-six points like him."
Yuan Chen unfolded the portrait, and what came into view was the man's face, which was clearly somewhat familiar.
Shen Huaiting asked: "I wonder if Your Highness plans to search secretly or openly?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a voice: "We have made our choice."
Ye Jinming and Mu Rufeng came over and saw that Shen Huaiting was also there, so they hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.
Yuan Chen handed the portrait to Ye Jinming and said, "This is the portrait of Prince Lanyuan of Mobei. Does it look familiar to you?"
Ye Jinming took the painting and looked at it carefully. His eyes were startled and he said, "Isn't this the man we met when we went to Fansheng Temple?"
