Xue Jinruo chuckled: "Of course it's to catch the turtle in the urn."

"I really want to see if we can wait until the two of them meet."

……

At this time, Sheng Chengjie was also sweating profusely.

He walked quickly on the palace road, and although the howling wind was in his ears, it still made him sweat profusely.

Before he could reach the Imperial Study Room, he saw Sheng Jiaojiao preparing to leave the palace. He was already furious. Seeing Sheng Jiaojiao rising up the ranks, he became even more depressed. He scolded: "Sheng Jiaojiao, you Stop!"

Sheng Jiaojiao was busy with something important when she suddenly heard the words. She stopped in her tracks and saw Sheng Chengjie coming towards her.

"Brother Emperor, why did you come into the palace today?" She said happily.

Seeing her calm look, Sheng Chengjie became even more angry. He felt that Sheng Jiaojiao was only cleaning the snow in front of her own door and didn't care about the frost on other people's tiles.

He took a step sideways and did not accept Sheng Jiaojiao's courtesy. Instead, he suppressed his anger and asked: "Let's not talk about those things for now. Let me ask you, why did the position of supervising the country fall on Sheng Chengtang in the end? "

Sheng Jiaojiao's heart suddenly thumped. Sure enough, Sheng Chengjie came to investigate because of this, but this matter was not something she could have the final say on.

"Brother, please don't be angry. On the day the imperial edict was issued, the Xue family was also there. Xue Jinruo must have said something to his father, who made him change the edict at the critical moment. Otherwise, your name must be on it, brother. That's right." She said through gritted teeth. She seemed to be complaining for Sheng Chengjie, but in her heart she was dismissive of Sheng Chengjie.

Sheng Chengjie's expression softened slightly after hearing this, but he was still furious: "You are so useless, you can make a duck fly away if it reaches your mouth!"

"Brother, please be patient. How can the position of superintendent of the country fall into your eyes? As long as my father dies, you will be the only one who can legitimately ascend the throne. After all, you are the prince on the surface." Sheng Jiaojiao said. She put on a smile and whispered in his ear for a while.

Sheng Chengjie finally calmed down. After all, not everyone can resist the temptation of becoming an emperor. He took a deep breath and slowly said: "Then what are you waiting for? Why don't you take action as soon as possible?"

"I was about to leave the palace to arrange this matter. I didn't stop because I met the emperor." Sheng Jiaojiao raised her eyebrows and answered.

Sheng Chengjie looked a little embarrassed. After talking for so long, it all belongs to him in the end, right?

But he put these thoughts away as quickly as possible, changed his face to a smile, pinched Sheng Jiaojiao's shoulders and said, "This is my good sister."

Sheng Jiaojiao was squeezed by her and felt uncomfortable all over, but she still responded with a smile: Why did the emperor enter the palace today? "

"I almost forgot," Sheng Chengjie then remembered what he said at the beginning, let's not talk about it. He slapped his forehead and said, "I am entering the palace this time to attend to my father's illness."

Sheng Jiaojiao was shocked. If Sheng Chengjie went there, her lie would be exposed directly.

He could only take two quick steps and stopped in front of the dusty Sheng Chengjie: "Brother, wait a moment."

"What's wrong?" Sheng Chengjie was puzzled.

Sheng Jiaojiao could only explain: "Brother Huang doesn't know something. He and his father have not seen each other for a while. You'd better not get into trouble."

"That's for you. I believe my father is still happy to see me." Sheng Chengjie squeezed Sheng Jiaojiao's shoulder again, and then walked out.

Sheng Jiaojiao's expression was very gloomy, she raised her hand and wiped the place where Sheng Chengjie had pinched just now, and followed his footsteps.

The two of them hurried to the outside of His Majesty's palace, but they never thought that the chief eunuch was just outside handling the affairs of the young eunuch.

Sheng Jiaojiao couldn't help but tighten the handkerchief in her hand and watched Sheng Chengjie walk over.

"Hey, aren't these the Crown Prince and the Fifth Princess? Why are you two here?" The eunuch's manager's face was warm, and he even took two steps forward to greet him. However, the smile did not reach his eyes, and even contained a little smile. dissatisfied.

Sheng Chengjie glanced at him and said impatiently: "Isn't it okay to come and see my father alone?"

"Okay, okay..." he replied with a helpless expression, "It's a pity that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and the Fifth Princess arrived by chance, so Your Majesty just gave the order. No one has been seen these days, so please come back." Bar."

As soon as these words came out, Sheng Jiaojiao breathed a long sigh of relief and then walked to Sheng Chengjie's side.

"Brother Emperor, let's go back first. I told you that my father won't see anyone these days." As she spoke, she didn't forget to step forward and pull Sheng Chengjie's arm.

But he never thought that Sheng Chengjie would just throw her away, suppressing the anger in his heart: "Excuse me, father-in-law, please send a message to me. I heard that my father is seriously ill and has trouble sleeping and eating. I just want to be able to serve my father. Let’s talk about filial piety.”

Such sincere words always came out of his mouth with a hint of disbelief.

"This..." The chief eunuch was also in a dilemma.

It's not that His Majesty doesn't want to see anyone, it's just that he doesn't want to see Sheng Chengjie and the others.

He had no choice but to follow suit and cup his hands: "Your Majesty, please don't embarrass me. Your Majesty has been unconscious since yesterday. People from the hospital have looked at you again and again, but they can't wake you up at all. I want to go there." The Regent’s Palace has invited the princess to come, but we are afraid that your majesty will wake up and say that the old slave is good at making decisions, so it is better for your highness to invite her back.”

Sheng Chengjie was about to speak again, but the head eunuch seemed to be avoiding the plague and went directly into the palace, closing the doors and windows tightly.

He really had no choice now, so he could only clenched his fists, exposing his veins.

Sheng Jiaojiao was really unhappy when she saw him like this. If this uncertain man became the master of this country, he didn't know what kind of trouble he would cause, but if he didn't help...

She rolled her eyebrows and stepped forward: "Brother, there is no need to worry. Since my father has not yet awakened, why don't you go find the aunt? When the aunt wakes up your father, she will naturally be thinking about your filial piety. "

Other than that, there is no other way.

But Sheng Chengjie only took two steps before he stopped again and said, "But didn't you say that if my father dies, this throne will only be mine?"

These words made Sheng Jiaojiao's heart tremble.

She indeed wanted His Majesty to die, but she didn't have the guts to speak outside His Majesty's palace.

But Sheng Chengjie was so open-minded that he actually spoke directly outside His Majesty's palace. I wonder if he was being called stupid? Or is he too impatient?

"Brother, you must not be cautious in your words and deeds. After all, the throne is still in the hands of the father. If what you said just now reaches the ears of the father, and he directly deposes you, it will really make you cry. There is no place to cry." Sheng Jiaojiao still gave instructions in a low voice. .
