“Rise.” The Emperor raised his hand.

Gazing at his most outstanding son, the Emperor’s eyes showed a hint of complexity.

The Empress said, “Prince of Yu has indeed become much thinner, and I imagine his days at the Imperial Mausoleum were not easy. However, regardless of the circumstances, you should not have hurt the Crown Prince. You are brothers, why would it come to this?”

“Mother is right in her admonishment.”

“You have also been punished this time. When you have a chance, go visit Prince of Huai. After all, you are brothers, and there is no need to become enemies.”

“Yes, I will remember that,” Li Hongyuan said.

The Emperor asked, “Where will you go next?”

“I will go to the Prime Minister’s Mansion to pick up the Princess Consort and the children, and take them home.”

“Hmm, it’s good that you think of your wife and children first. That’s somewhat commendable of a man,” the Emperor nodded,” However, there is no need for you to pick them up.”

Li Hongyuan frowned, “Emperor Father…”

“Go back and get yourselves ready, prepare to move into the East Palace.”

“…What?”

“Foolish child, your Emperor Father means, get yourselves ready to move into the East Palace,” the Empress said with a smile, “You cannot be so dull as to not understand what that means.”

“I obey the Imperial Edict.”

Li Hongyuan certainly understood.

He came here, waiting for these words.

Otherwise, the nearly one year of guarding the Imperial Mausoleum, three months in the Prison of Court of Judicial Review, and three days of copying scriptures while kneeling would all be in vain.

Li Hongyuan got up, holding Xiaoqian’s hand as he left Crystal Frost Hall.

The Empress opened her mouth to speak but was silenced by the Emperor’s gaze.

“Why did he take Xiaoqian with him?” The Empress was somewhat dissatisfied.

“What’s wrong with Xiaoqian going with him since he has been with him since childhood?”

“That was before, but now he is about to become the Crown Prince… Did Your Majesty forget the lesson taught by Prince of Huai? He was willing to harm Xiaoqian for his own son; couldn’t Prince of Yu do the same? Have you forgotten that the Prince of Yu also has a son?”

“I trust that the Prince of Yu is not that kind of person.”

“What if?”

“There is no ‘what if’.” The Emperor said coldly, “I warn you, do not provoke the Prince of Yu and the Princess Consort of Yu. If it wasn’t for your insistence on letting the Princess Consort of Yu send Xiaoqian back, these things wouldn’t have happened. You should also take responsibility for Prince of Huai’s leg!”

The Empress said, “How could I have known these things would happen.”

“Enough, don’t say more. I will give you three days to reorganize the East Palace.”

The Emperor stood up, and the Empress did not dare to ask where he was going as she hurriedly saw him off.

The Emperor went to draft an edict.

In the afternoon, news spread throughout the palace; the Emperor issued an edict to appoint the Prince of Yu as Crown Prince, Princess Consort of Yu as the Princess Consort, and to move into the East Palace after three days.

At that time, Jiang Ning was dozing off in bed.

Headed by Jiang Yi, all the siblings from the main branch and the second branch gathered together.

Upon meeting, the sisters began offering their disorganized congratulations.

“Congratulations, Seventh Sister! Our family has produced a Princess Consort!” Second Miss Jiang said with a beaming smile.

Jiang Ning was a little confused, “What Princess Consort?”

Jiang Yuan said, “The palace has already issued a decree, appointing Prince of Yu as Crown Prince, Princess Consort of Yu as Princess Consort, and they will move into the East Palace in three days. You are now undeniably the Princess Consort!”

Jiang Ning laughed, “That is indeed good news. No wonder.”

She had been waiting all morning for Li Hongyuan to come and pick her and the little ones up, but he had not arrived yet. It turns out that the Emperor’s decree had come so quickly.

As for the official coronation ceremony, it would take some time to prepare.

Just the ceremonial robes and crowns for the Crown Prince and Princess Consort would take some time to prepare.

Three days later, Li Hongyuan finally came..
