After Xue Jinruo stepped forward to check his pulse, his face suddenly became very ugly. Just as she expected, there were indeed toxins flowing in His Majesty's body.

However, His Majesty's health is getting worse day by day. It seems that this medicine is a chronic poison. Although it is always in His Majesty's body, it will not attack easily as long as he does not encounter something too exciting.

After frowning and thinking for a long time, Xue Jinruo wrote down the recipe. After thinking about it, he added: "Your Majesty, you must find someone you trust most to help you."

His Majesty nodded and handed the prescription to the chief eunuch.

"How am I doing? Why do you think you are so solemn?"

"Your Majesty has chronic poison in his body, but I don't know when he was poisoned. Please don't get angry in the future." Xue Jinruo said truthfully.

Having said that, she was still hiding something.

Not only was there poison in His Majesty's body, but there were also poisonous insects, but she couldn't say this.

His Majesty's face suddenly became ugly.

His body has always been taken care of by the judges of the Tai Hospital. Logically speaking, there should be no poisoning. If it is not that the judge of the Tai Hospital is not good at learning, then it is because the judge has colluded with others.

He waved his hand and said to the chief eunuch beside him: "Go and invite me to come over to the imperial hospital."

"Yes."

As soon as the chief eunuch left, Xue Jinruo couldn't control the confusion on his face: "Why did your Majesty call the court judge here now?"

"I believe in your ability, and even more in your character. However, the hospital judge has been treating me for such a long time, but he has not found any abnormalities at all, which is suspicious. Today I am testing him a little, so don't do anything more. That's it." His Majesty waved his hand and told the people sitting below him to shut up.

Xue Yizhong had been watching from the side and did not speak for a long time, but Xue Jinruo looked sideways.

She tilted her body and whispered, "Dad, why don't you say anything? Do you think something is wrong?"

Although her voice was not loud, she still seemed a bit out of place in the silent study, causing His Majesty to look over.

Fortunately, the court judge hadn't come yet, and he didn't stop the father and daughter from talking.

"It's nothing, I'm just expressing my gratitude to the Holy Grace." Xue Yizhong's voice was a little choked, "Your mother and I were wronged. I originally thought that His Majesty would be disappointed in our Xue family and no longer entrust us with important responsibilities, but I didn't expect that His Majesty would be disappointed with our Xue family. Your Majesty still values ​​you so much, and our Xue family cannot forget this trust."

When His Majesty heard the words, he opened his mouth and felt a sore nose, but no words came out.

Xue Jinruo had other ideas in mind.

If Your Majesty really trusted the Xue family, he would not have convicted the Xue family in the first place, but would have investigated carefully.

However, these words were not spoken out, but were hidden in his heart.

It's not a bad idea to let Xue Yizhong have a fantasy.

……

About a quarter of an hour later, the chief eunuch came back with the court judge.

"Your Majesty." The judge saw Xue Jinruo as soon as he entered the door. He thought that his medical skills were not as good as Xue Jinruo, but His Majesty still summoned him. The reason for this made him shudder.

His Majesty didn't talk nonsense, but stretched out his hand: "Judge, I still feel ill these days, so I specially asked you to come over and take a look."

The judge was even more puzzled after hearing this.

You must know that wherever Xue Jinruo is present, His Majesty will never think of him.

His eyes couldn't help but fall on Xue Jinruo, and their eyes met, making him still couldn't help but tremble.

Although he didn't know what His Majesty meant, he had to step forward due to the Emperor's orders.

He placed his hand on His Majesty's pulse, as usual.

"Your Majesty is in good health. It seems that he is coughing because of overwork. Your Majesty still needs to pay attention to rest." The court judge bowed his hand.

He was about to put away his things, but he looked over without thinking.

His Majesty's eyes were full of distrust: "Oh? Is it because the medical skills of the court are not good or is it deliberate deception? I have reduced my daily government affairs. If it is any less, I will have to close the door and thank guests."

When the court judge heard this, he was already feeling guilty and broke out in cold sweat, and simply knelt on the ground.

"I don't understand what your majesty means." He said bravely, "Maybe my medical skills are not good, and the regent princess is here. Why don't you ask the princess to take a good look at it for your majesty."

He was even more frightened when he said this, for fear that if Xue Jin found out the abnormality in His Majesty's body, then he would not be able to explain it clearly. But if he didn't say so, I'm afraid His Majesty would not let him go easily.

He was in a dilemma and could only look for help on Xue Jinruo.

Unexpectedly, Xue Jinruo actually chuckled: "The court judge is really good at telling jokes. How can I dare to show off while you are here? It's just that His Majesty has been ill for a long time and is worried. In my opinion, Your Majesty might as well just do it." The court judge wants you to take a good rest for a while."

She was not afraid to look directly at the judge. Although her words were high-sounding, the judge was relieved.

"Since the Princess Regent has said so, I have no other choice." His Majesty's expression softened a little, but he also showed embarrassment, "However, if I rest for a while, this state affairs cannot be left unattended, so why not ——”

Before he finished speaking, he noticed the court judge's burning eyes.

A bad feeling suddenly emerged in his heart, and he swallowed back all the words he originally wanted to say: "It's better to leave it to the second prince to take care of it."

These sudden words made everyone present stunned.

It is not an exaggeration to say that when Sheng Chengjie was deposed, Sheng Chengtang was asked to take care of the government affairs. But now that Sheng Chengjie is clearly in the position of prince, it would be a bit unfair to ask Sheng Chengtang to take care of it.

The judge was still smiling at first, but after hearing these words, his face froze.

Even Xue Jinruo couldn't help but wonder.

However, both of them were able to keep their composure. They did not ask questions directly. Instead, Xue Sirang couldn't help but stood up and cupped his hands: "Your Majesty, I have something that I don't understand. Now that the prince is in office, it should be natural for him to let it go." It’s only right that the prince comes to supervise the country, why is it left to the second prince to take care of it?”

His Majesty's face, which was originally softened, turned gloomy again after hearing these words.

If he hadn't known that there was an irresolvable grudge between the Xue family and Sheng Chengjie, he would have had to wonder whether Xue Sirang was colluding with the prince.

"You traitor! Where do you have the right to speak in front of His Majesty? Why don't you step down quickly?" Xue Yizhong knew that Xue Sirang's move was very inappropriate, so he hurriedly reprimanded him, and then bowed his hands to the superior, "Your Majesty, my son Ignorance, this is so outrageous, please don’t blame me, Your Majesty.”
