"Minmin, do you see? These are all your Father's troops, and in the future, they'll be yours too." Ye Lu pointed at the great army as she spoke to her son.
Three years ago, Princess Consort Shi Xuan failed to properly look after Chen Gaoxuan's son, resulting in the death of the eldest. Ye Lu finally found evidence that Shi Xuan had not devoted herself to caring for the two children, claiming she had deliberately refused to call a doctor for them, which led to the incident. Using this as a pretext, she had Chen Gaoxuan depose Shi Xuan.
Shi Xuan's only powerful older brother, Shi Rui, had long since died, and she had no children at her side, so there was no one to speak for her. Ye Lu successfully took the seat of Princess Consort, and the child she bore, Chen Min, was granted the title of Princely Heir.
