Her thoughtful gaze fell on Butler Lin, but it made Butler Lin couldn't help but feel goose bumps. She felt that she didn't know what Jiang Ruan was thinking again. She couldn't help but feel guilty. She quickly said a few words and went out to prepare horses for Jiang Ruan.

When Jiang Ruan and the others arrived in the palace, they first went to Empress Dowager Yide in Cining Palace to sit down. Empress Dowager Yide still looked as reckless as before, but she could no longer hide a vicissitudes of life. The woman who once stood up in the rebellion of the Eight Kings of the previous dynasty finally showed an old look under the destruction of time. Now that the emperor is seriously ill, Empress Dowager Yide must forget the fact that he is a mother. The first thing he has to do is to appease the ministers and purify the harem. The huge waves of fighting for the throne are hidden under the calm surface. It is impossible for Empress Dowager Yide to know that it is difficult to maintain the overall situation under such circumstances.

Jiang Ruan did not have much feelings for Empress Dowager Yide. When he approached her, he just wanted to use Empress Dowager Yide to improve his identity later. But the situation is different now. Empress Dowager Yide is Xiao Shao's biological grandmother. Even if he did something, from now on, she did not force Xiao Shao to do anything. Jiang Ruan also saw the attitude of Empress Dowager Yide clearly. She would not let Xiao Shao take the position of emperor.

Jiang Ruan and Empress Dowager Yide talked for a while and then arrived at Xuan Pei's palace. Now the court knows that Jiang Ruan and Xuan Pei have a deep relationship. Where did the sister and brother who have achieved halfway through the journey come from? Everyone just thinks that it is Jiang Ruan standing on Xuan Pei's side on behalf of Prince Jinying's Mansion. Today, when she went to the palace to Nanyuan, she would have secretly looked at her. Jiang Ruan knew that this was exactly what she wanted to achieve.

As soon as he entered Nanyuan, Xuan Pei was still practicing calligraphy. When he saw Jiang Ruan coming, he was a little surprised at first, but then he was overjoyed. He immediately threw away the pen in his hand and greeted him: "Mother...Princess."

Jiang Ruan smiled slightly. The people in Xuan Pei's palace were all their own people, but it was really annoying. Xuan Pei waved his hand and asked everyone else to go out. Jiang Ruan also asked Lian Qiao and others to guard the door, and sat down with Xuan Pei first.

Xuan Pei was a little happy. He hadn't seen Jiang Ruan for a long time. When he saw Jiang Ruan, he was naturally very happy. He asked all of a sudden: "Mother's mother hasn't come to see me. The palace has been very lively recently. There is a lot of fun every day. I thought that my mother would definitely take advantage of the opportunity to watch the fun, but I couldn't wait for anyone after waiting. However, King Jinying would come uninvited when he entered the palace occasionally. I can't step in Nanyuan at will!" At the end of the conversation, there was already anger in his tone, and he was obviously very dissatisfied with Xiao Shao. Xuan Pei and Xiao Shao were really enemies. Jiang Ruan didn't know why Xuan Pei was picking on Xiao Shaoheng, but he just thought he was a child's character and smiled and said, "I am afraid that I will bring you trouble when I enter the palace rashly. After the emperor is seriously ill, I think you are not doing well. He didn't cause trouble for you, right?"

"He" naturally refers to Xuan Li. The mother and son knew it well. Xuan Pei raised his eyebrows and said with a gaze: "How dare he cause trouble for me? He was just a turtle, but now he wanted to close himself. At such a critical moment, he would not make any mistakes. Even if I spit on him now, he would say that my brothers and brothers would not blame me."

Jiang Ruan: “…”

Xuan Pei now spoke unconsciously, and he didn't know who he learned it from. Jiang Ruan's eyes unconsciously floated towards Mingyue, who was standing aside. Although it was said that Yue was arranged by Xiao Shao for Xuan Pei, Mingyue was the Jinyiwei before. The Jinyiwei had been struggling among the dead. Mingyue stayed with Xuan Pei every day and inevitably led Xuan Pei to ruin Xuan Pei. Xuan Pei's image outside now is a noble and exquisite royal young man, and he said it like a bandit. Jiang Ruan had some doubts in his heart why Xiao Shao sent Mingyue.

However, Xuan Pei was right. Xuan Li was a cautious person. It was because the throne was not so open and upright that he should pay more attention to the words of outsiders. Therefore, he would not leave anyone a handle, and at this time he would have to act like a wise ruler. Even if he really wanted to make any moves, he would never dare to do anything in the morning and make the movement too big.

Xuan Pei looked at Jiang Ruan and suddenly remembered something and said, "Mother, you came to me today. Is something wrong?"

"Pei'er," Jiang Ruan retracted her thoughts and looked at the boy in front of her: "Do you want to be the emperor?"

There were so many eyes and ears in the palace. It was a bit too bold to say this with such a high-sounding saying, but Jiang Ruan was not worried, just because Xuan Pei was no longer the stupid and ignorant Xuan Pei in his previous life. The defense of Nanyuan was completely invisible. After Jiang Ruan finished speaking, he stared at Xuan Pei's eyes tightly.

Xuan Pei was slightly stunned, then lowered his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Mother...I...want to be the emperor."

"Okay." Jiang Ruan nodded. Xuan Pei was stunned again and looked up at Jiang Ruan. He thought Jiang Ruan would be angry or had other expressions, but he never expected that she was so calm. Because in the palace in his previous life, Jiang Ruan and him experienced too many pains, and the source of everything was just because of human desires. Now he wanted to be an emperor because he wanted to become stronger. Perhaps only in that way can he protect the people he wanted to protect and completely include Jiang Ruan under his wings. But in the eyes of outsiders, he was just for his ambition and selfish desires. Xuan Pei didn't dare to think about what Jiang Ruan would think of him.

But Jiang Ruan just answered yes so lightly, and never even said a word of denial. Xuan Pei looked at her in confusion and said, "Mother, aren't you angry?"

"If you want everything in this world, you can get it. If you can't get it, you can fight for it. But Pei'er," Jiang Ruan looked at him: "I will fight for what you want for you."

Xuan Pei's eyes were almost about to shed tears, but he knew he could not cry. He was now an adult, and he could not be as he was as confused and ignorant as in his previous life, which made Jiang Ruan worry. He gritted his teeth and forced the tears back. The people in the palace were warm and warm, and the tea was cold and the people left and left, and there was someone in the world who told you: I will fight for what you want for you. What a difficult sentence.

Mother, I will also fight for what you want for you. Xuan Pei said in his heart. He heard Jiang Ruan's voice again: "So Pei'er, can you tell me where did you hide the imperial edict?"

Xuan Pei was shocked and looked at Jiang Ruan at a loss. With that glance, he knew that the news he wanted to hide could no longer be hidden. He said reluctantly: "How did the mother know?"
