After rebirth, I will be the royal aunt to the scumbag

When Sheng Chengjie came to His Majesty's chamber, he felt like a different person.

Because this was a plague, they could only wait outside the dormitory. He knelt on the ground and simply started crying: "Father, why are you suffering from the plague when you are so good? I really can't worry about you. Let me go in and have a look."

He cried so heart-wrenchingly that His Majesty, who had a high fever, felt his ears hurt from hearing it.

"Is the prince outside?" he asked.

The head eunuch nodded quickly, and did not forget to compliment him: "Yes, the prince is really a very filial person. I am afraid he would like to suffer for your majesty."

"When I see him crying like this, I wish I could die soon." His Majesty sneered.

After all, he just contracted the plague. Sheng Chengjie cried so hard, clearly looking like he was mourning. How could he rest at ease?

He held on to his own strength and waved his hand: "Well, there is no need for them to show off outside. If I really die, I will follow their ideas and ask them to inherit the throne. It’s better than thinking about urging me to die in the future.”

"What are you talking about, your Majesty? The princes are all filial people and would never have such thoughts." The chief eunuch immediately knelt on the ground.

His Majesty took a few deep breaths and said, "You tell them to leave."

"How are things going with Concubine Min and the Third Prince?"

Although he was in poor health, he couldn't worry about their side.

The chief eunuch quickly replied: "The third prince is still unconscious. Concubine Min is fine. She just has a fever. However, the concubine still insists on taking care of the third prince personally, which prevents the third prince's condition from getting worse."

"She is very attentive." His Majesty took a few more breaths, "You passed on my will. Concubine Min treated the emperor's heirs well and was not afraid of life and death. Now that the queen position has been vacant for many years, I promoted her to the queen. If she can survive this disaster , and held a canonization ceremony for her."

"Yes."

The chief eunuch received the order and immediately did it.

……

When Sheng Chengjie heard the news that he was no longer required to serve as a doctor, he pretended to cry again, and then got up and went to find Sheng Jiaojiao.

He was more worried about whether something would happen to his mother-in-law and sister than to His Majesty.

But he didn't expect that Sheng Jiaojiao was sitting in her palace without any protective measures. Even mugwort was just burned in the yard.

Sheng Chengjie immediately became anxious when he saw this scene and hurriedly came up and said, "My dear sister, why are you so careless? Even though you are a member of the Buddhist sect and are protected by the Buddha, you cannot ignore your own life. This plague is coming fiercely, and if you catch it, it will be fatal."

"Brother, there is no need to worry." Sheng Jiaojiao looked indifferent, "Brother, the emperor thinks that the third emperor's brother has always been in good health and has been hanging out in Qingyu Hall. Why can he still be infected with the plague?"

"Ha, it must be because God couldn't stand it and wanted to take him away, but that's fine, it saves us some effort." Sheng Chengjie sneered.

Sheng Jiaojiao curled her lips and said nothing.

Babao brought a bowl of tea over and said, "The princess deliberately let the third prince contract this plague. Since the disease occurred in our palace, the princess has naturally been prepared for it, so there is no need to worry at all."

"Is this happening!?" Sheng Chengjie's words were full of shock.

In this way, he can let go of his hanging heart.

Sheng Jiaojiao breathed a sigh of relief when she saw him, but she still couldn't feel at ease. She quickly began to ask: "Brother Emperor, how is the matter I asked you to do? When will the Princess Regent and her entourage be able to enter the capital?"

When Sheng Chengjie heard this, he suddenly remembered this.

He had already sent the message by flying pigeon, but he still didn't see the carrier pigeon come back. It seemed that the carrier pigeon had fallen into the hands of someone else.

"I'll write another letter." He said, preparing to send letters again.

It happened that at this moment, the little palace maid outside got the news: "The princess, the prince, and the regent princess have entered the capital, and I think they will be able to enter the palace soon."

For these palace maids and eunuchs, Xue Jinruo's return is a good thing.

Sheng Jiaojiao's brows were furrowed, she couldn't believe that this was true, and immediately ran to the palace to see the situation.

Before Sheng Chengjie realized what had happened, he saw her figure flash past, and he quickly followed her pace.

……

When the two of them stood on the palace wall, they happened to see Xue Jinruo galloping towards them on horseback.

"Why is she the only one? Where is the regent?" Sheng Chengjie couldn't help but frowned and asked.

When Sheng Jiaojiao heard this, she immediately realized the problem.

It seemed that Sheng Chengjie had indeed sent a message, but it was intercepted.

Fortunately, she had originally thought that now that His Majesty was also suffering from the plague, it would be difficult to save his life. If he could die, the prince Sheng Chengjie would naturally inherit the throne. Unexpectedly, Xue Jinruo actually had to be killed halfway.

When Sheng Jiaojiao thought of this, her expression turned serious.

There was a flash of insidiousness and calculation in her eyes, and then she made a plan: "Brother, you go to the palace gate to stop her right now. You must not let her enter the palace. It is best to lock her up for a few days... "

"This is not good." Sheng Chengjie interrupted her, "If my father finds out..."

"If my father dies due to this plague, what do you have to worry about!" Sheng Jiaojiao's eyes were scarlet, filled with anger.

Her words reminded Sheng Chengjie.

However, if His Majesty dies, he can legitimately inherit the throne.

"Okay!" He said and hurried to the palace.

At this time, Xue Jinruo had also arrived, and the palace gate guard was stopping at the palace gate, preparing to verify her identity.

Unexpectedly, Xue Jinruo took out the token from the Prince Regent's Palace and prepared to ride directly into the city: "I am the Princess Regent, please get out of the way."

But he never expected that although the guards at the city gate recognized the token and were ready to let him go, Sheng Chengjie directly blocked the city gate.

Xue Jinruo couldn't get out of the way, but she also knew that she couldn't really step over him. She could only tighten the reins hard, and the horse took a step across. However, because she was not good at riding, she fell directly to the ground and rolled twice. lock up.

She knew how urgent the matter was, and regardless of the pain on her body, she immediately stood up, grabbed the horse's reins, and cursed: "Sheng Chengjie, what else are you trying to do?"

"Xue Jinruo, your Xue family has been imprisoned for collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country. You are a member of the Xue family, and you have just gone to Ming Yue Kingdom. It is inevitable that you will collude with Ming Yue Kingdom. I came here specifically to interrogate you today. "Sheng Chengjie was almost scared out of his wits just now, but he still pretended to be calm, "Someone, take her away for me."
