Prince An Yi glanced at the Princess Consort, with a hint of a smile in his eyes. The Princess Consort was not from an influential family, her background was not high, but after they got married, Prince An Yi thought about how it wasn't easy for the Princess Consort and respected her greatly.
Aside from the two concubines originally bestowed by his father, the Emperor, there were no other women in the rear courtyard.
"Xin'er, don't worry. His Majesty summoned me to the palace to abdicate and pass the throne to me."
An Xin was completely stunned, her mouth slightly open, somewhat incredulous.
Prince An Yi smiled bitterly. When His Majesty told him, he too was incredulous, but His Majesty made it very clear. She no longer wanted to be trapped in political affairs and only wanted to live a peaceful life. After abdicating, she planned to live in the Summer Palace outside the Imperial City. She said she trusted his character, so she summoned him back.
