Shen Xiangqin wanted to ask something more, but she heard footsteps outside, and Xue Yizhong and Xue Sirang stepped in.

The two of them stopped talking and turned their attention to Xue Yizhong.

"Dad, what are you doing?" Xue Jinruo asked confused. She had been running around dealing with Xue Sijian's affairs for the past few days and could no longer care about other things.

Xue Yizhong explained in a calm tone: "Send your second brother to the expedition."

He has been on the battlefield for a long time, so naturally he doesn't think anything of it.

But Xue Sirang said angrily: "Sister, can't you even remember this?"

The accusation in his words was not restrained at all.

Sheng Jingze was also in the room. Hearing Xue Sirang's unfounded accusation, his eyebrows moved slightly, but after all, it was difficult for an upright official to deal with household affairs, so it was hard for him to say anything.

It's just that he has seen Xue Jinruo's hard work in the past few days. He didn't expect that he would get such an accusation in the end, and he instantly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Xue Jinruo then remembered that today was the day when Xue Siriang went to war, and her face was full of apologies. Her parents were wronged before, and her eldest brother was like her father. These brothers all gave her a lot of care, but today she didn't even give her a gift. Send him off.

"Dad, I..." She opened her mouth to say something, but was stopped by Xue Yizhong's eyes.

Xue Yizhong first said to Xue Sirang: "Sirang, stop talking nonsense. Jin'er has been worrying about your elder brother's affairs these days. He must have been busy and forgotten."

Xue Sirang snorted softly, but his expression softened a bit. After all, what Xue Yizhong said made sense. If it weren't for Xue Jinruo, who knew when Xue Sijian's matter would be resolved?

"Jin'er, you don't have the ability to clone yourself, so you definitely can't take care of everything. Your eldest brother's matter has been successfully resolved, and I have to thank you very much as a father." Xue Yi Zhongfu turned to Xue Jinruo again and said, not stingy with himself. of praise.

Xue Jinruo hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Dad, you are making a big deal out of yourself by saying this. We are all one family, and we should not talk to each other."

As soon as she bowed, Xue Yizhong saw Sheng Jingze behind her. He had never seen him before because of his body.

"Your Majesty is also here. Please forgive me for missing the welcome." Xue Yizhong also hurriedly greeted him.

Sheng Jingze waved his hand and said, "It doesn't matter, you can just talk about your issues."

Although Sheng Jingze said this, after all, his identity was here. For a moment, everyone in the room looked at him, and they no longer felt the same relief as before.

Sheng Jingze felt slightly embarrassed, so he cleared his throat and asked, "What are Mr. Xue's plans for the future?"

"I am stupid, please give me your permission." Xue Yizhong didn't understand for a while, so he could only bravely ask again.

Sheng Jingze glanced at Xue Jinruo, who shook his head, and then said, "It seems that Ajin hasn't told you yet, but this matter can't be wrapped up in paper after all."

He paused for a moment before speaking in a lowered voice: "Your Majesty's health is getting worse and worse, and he is almost at the end of his life. No one knows when the end will come. And if Your Majesty goes, Once the prince takes the throne, the Xue family will definitely be ruined, and Mr. Xue should have made a plan in advance."

These words were so heavy that every member of the Xue family present felt like they had been punched in the heart, and their breathing was somewhat unsmooth.

After all, when Sheng Chengjie was the prince, he brought the Xue family into the same state as before. If he really ascended the throne, the Xue family would definitely be in trouble.

After Xue Yizhong pondered for a while, he said, "Your Majesty, please move to the study to discuss in detail."

"That's fine." Sheng Jingze nodded in agreement and walked out first, and Xue Yizhong hurriedly followed.

After the two left, Shen Xiangqin asked worriedly: "Jin'er, is your Majesty's health really that bad?"

"Not bad." Xue Jinruo also nodded. She had no time to pay attention to him these days, but she had forgotten about this matter. Now it was really time to make plans.

The time has come to noon, and the sun is sparing no effort to emit light and heat in the sky, but the hearts of the Xue family below are shrouded in a layer of haze, which cannot shine in no matter what.

Occasionally, a few crows flew through the sky, and their cries added to the sadness.

In the study, Xue Yizhong and Sheng Jingze took their seats one after another.

"Your Majesty, I have discussed with Prime Minister Liu, and our two families have decided to support the second prince to ascend to the throne. What do you think?" Lieutenant General Xue Yi told everything that he had discussed with Prime Minister Liu before.

Because of Xue Jinruo's relationship, he naturally believed in Sheng Jingze.

Sheng Jingze nodded after hearing this. The second prince was indeed a good choice, but he did not express his opinion and let Xue Yizhong make his own decision.

"Master Xue can make his own decision. I can't express my opinion on this kind of matter."

Although Sheng Jingze only said this sentence, Xue Yizhong heard the implication of Sheng Jingze's words.

Although he has been on the battlefield for a long time and is not very good at these roundabout remarks, he can still hear a sense of dissatisfaction.

Sheng Jingze's meaning is nothing more than saying that I don't think this matter is appropriate, but since you have already discussed it, I won't say anything more. Mr. Xue can make his own decision.

The implication was that the second prince was a bad person, but Sheng Jingze did not say what was bad about him.

Although he heard the implication of Sheng Jingze's words, Xue Yizhong naturally would not express it foolishly. Naturally, the prince did not want him to expose such a cryptic expression.

"What the prince said is absolutely true. It would be better for me to think about it myself." Xue Yizhong thought about this and replied.

Sheng Jingze took a deep look at Xue Yizhong, and then prepared to stand up and leave.

The two of them returned to the main hall from the study room. As soon as they entered, Xue Yizhong started to wink at Shen Xiangqin.

After all, the two of them have been under the same roof for so long. Shen Xiangqin naturally saw it at a glance. He took a few steps forward and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, it's noon now. I just ordered the kitchen to prepare a few dishes. Or... Have a quick meal here before leaving?"

When Xue Yizhong heard this, he secretly gave Shen Xiangqin a thumbs up. He also wanted to keep Sheng Jingze and let him have a meal here.

Sheng Jingze originally wanted to agree, but he still turned his attention to Xue Jinruo. He suddenly wanted to hear what she thought.

But Xue Jinruo's mind was not here at this time, and she didn't even notice that Sheng Jingze and Xue Yizhong had returned.

After Shen Xiangqin asked her just now, she fell into deep thought. After all, the rainy day preparations had to be done in advance, otherwise it would be too late to improvise by the time. .
