Sheng Chengtang twitched the corners of his mouth several times, but he couldn't smile at all.

Even the loneliness in his eyes could not be concealed.

"Otherwise?" Xue Jinruo frowned slightly.

She helped Sheng Chengtang stand up again before, thinking that no matter what, Sheng Chengtang's half-body disability had something to do with the Xue family, and she had to make up for it for the Xue family. After all, she just thought that Sheng Chengtang was indeed the most suitable prince. The promise made to the queen.

But now, these have been reduced to ashes, and naturally there is no need to continue to have too close contact.

Xue Jinruo suddenly realized that what he said might have gone too far, and quickly made up for it: "Second Prince, there is no need to misunderstand my meaning. Minmin and I hit it off right away, and I like her temperament. If there are any difficulties in the future, , I will certainly help if I can, but I would like to ask the second prince not to come to you again for the crown prince's affairs."

"It's never because of the Crown Prince's affairs that I come to visit you every time..." Sheng Chengtang said suddenly as if he was anxious.

This sentence made both Xue Jinruo and Xiaohuan pause.

Xue Jinruo was indeed slow about emotional matters, but the hints and his attitude over the past few days forced her to think more about it.

She stammered: "You...you mean..."

"To be treasonous, since Auntie Huang cured my leg, I have indeed been happy with you. I married Azhe Minmin just for the sake of the crown prince position. I married Shen Yitang because it was you who said it. If I can get you, why don't I not want the position of prince?" Sheng Chengtang said seriously.

Now that he has made it clear, he might as well express all his feelings.

Xue Jinruo was stunned.

She had always regarded Sheng Chengtang as a junior and thought he was more reliable than the other nephews, but she never expected that he would have such thoughts.

Afterwards, she finally reacted, couldn't help but touch her nose, and said awkwardly: "I'm afraid you may not be emotional towards me, but just grateful."

"Second Prince, if someone else had cured your leg, I'm afraid you would have the same thoughts." Xue Jinruo raised a smile, at least finding an excuse for himself.

She is in a critical moment right now. If someone gossips like this again, her life will only become more miserable.

There was a bit of panic on Sheng Chengtang's face, and he immediately explained: "That's not the case..."

"Then you are coveting your own royal aunt now?" Before he could finish his words, a cold voice came from outside.

Xue Jinruo heard that it was Sheng Jingze's voice and looked up. Sure enough, it was Sheng Jingze who was coming through the door with a gloomy face.

Her face also became a little ugly.

It seems that even if he jumped into the Yellow River, he would not be able to escape.

Sheng Chengtang stood up, knowing that his thoughts were against the ethical principles, so he did not have the toughness just now, but said with a little guilt: "Uncle Emperor..."

"The second prince is now married and almost a father. Instead of worrying about other people's wives here, you should take care of the affairs in your own house first. If such a messy thing happens again, I'm afraid your reputation will be ruined. He's like a prince." Sheng Jingze's face was still cold, he waved his hand, and Xiao Yi invited the person out directly.

Sheng Chengtang glanced at Xue Jinruo again, thinking of saying something more, but had no choice but to turn around and leave.

When they left, Xue Jinruo and Sheng Jingze still didn't say a word.

The atmosphere seemed to be deadlocked.

Xue Jinruo was a little flustered at first, but when he thought about it carefully, he realized that this matter had nothing to do with him, so he naturally felt confident: "Since the prince is here, he should tell you what he is doing here. It's not like that." Are you talking to show off to someone?"

After hearing this, Sheng Jingze couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

After all, he is a high-ranking regent. For many years, no one has ever spoken to him except others to please him.

"Xue Jinruo, don't you have something to explain to me?" He also knew that Xue Jinruo would not do anything embarrassing, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He thought if this person could say a few words to him If you say soft words, this matter will be over.

However, Xue Jinruo is not a person who is used to trying to please others.

She frowned: "Your Majesty, what does this mean?"

"The relationship between me and the second prince is innocent. If you miss me so much, you might as well divorce me directly, so as to show that the rules of the Regent's Palace are strict." Xue Jinruo's face also turned cold.

Sheng Jingze just wanted to hear a few soft words, but when he received such words from the other party, he couldn't help but frown.

After a long while, he sighed: "I don't doubt anything about you, but since you know his thoughts about you, you should avoid suspicion. If a man and a woman are alone in the same room, what would happen if I didn't show up in time? as a result of?"

Xue Jinruo curled his lips after hearing this.

This is indeed something she failed to consider.

When Sheng Jingze saw that she was silent and didn't continue to be aggressive, he knew that she knew she was wrong in her heart, so he simply changed the subject: "The prison just handed over the words not long ago. They have been giving those people every day according to your method." Some people no longer have seizures after being given acupuncture."

Xue Jinruo nodded.

Her method was correct after all.

"How about the smuggling?" she couldn't help but ask.

It is indeed not easy to get rid of black pimples, but it is even more difficult to cut off the black pimples at the root. Only in this way will the people not continue to be persecuted by such poison.

Sheng Jingze shook his head.

They have arrested so many people, so they have naturally alerted the enemy. I am afraid that they will not do anything in a short time.

He said: "Instead of worrying about these, it is better to think about the affairs of Miao Territory... Yes, Prince Rouran is ready to set off and will leave the Central Plains in the future."

"So fast?" Xue Jinruo's eyes widened, "But he didn't get the Qilin Order, so how could he be willing to go back?"

"Your Majesty, of course, you have your own uses." Sheng Jingze only left these words before turning and leaving.

……

Having said that, because Sheng Chengtang didn't get the answer he wanted from Xue Jinruo, he kept his face drooping when he left.

Azhe Minmin was filled with some resentment in her heart, and she didn't speak during the entire journey.

Instead, Shen Yitang had to wait at the door early.

She knew that Sheng Chengtang was going to pick up Azhe Minmin. Thinking about Azhe Minmin's bad temper, Sheng Chengtang would definitely be embarrassed. If she comforted her at this time, she would definitely be favored.

Maybe, Sheng Chengtang could be asked to divorce the concubine. .
