Sheng Nanzhi lowered her head and listened to Shi Huaizhi's words of enthronement. She just lowered her eyes and almost couldn't help laughing out loud.

She quickly shifted her attention, shouted "Long live the emperor" three times, then raised her hands above her head and took the imperial edict.

Even after walking out of the palace with the imperial edict, Sheng Nanzhi was still somewhat dazed.

If I tell this to others, who would believe it?

She went to the palace and fought for the position of crown prince for her husband who was unconscious in bed and weak and unable to take care of himself?

The position of crown prince was given to her inexplicably.

It was so easy that she felt like she was dreaming.

Inside the hall, the emperor, other court officials, and the princes were still there.

Sheng Nanzhi looked into the hall again with some uncertainty, then secretly opened the imperial edict in his hand and took a look. It was indeed an imperial edict, and the emperor's golden seal was still printed on it.

It was indeed the case that Huaizhi was enthroned as the crown prince, and there was nothing wrong with the name and the content.

Tsk, does Shi Huaizhi consider himself a fisherman who benefits from his own actions?

As Sheng Nanzhi was thinking, she saw Concubine Hua still standing in the distance. She must have left the palace, but she was still a little worried, so she decided to wait there.

Sheng Nanzhi hurried over: "Mother!"

Concubine Hua came back to her senses and quickly looked over, carefully examining Sheng Nanzhi: "Are you okay?"

"fine."

Sheng Nanzhi looked around and said, "Mother, the imperial edict."

"Imperial edict?" Concubine Hua was puzzled. "What imperial edict?"

Sheng Nanzhi had already unfolded the imperial edict and brought it to Concubine Hua.

Concubine Hua carefully read the contents of the imperial edict and was stunned. "What's going on? Could it be that you forged the imperial edict?"

"Mother!" Sheng Nanzhi said hurriedly, "My father was here just now, and he was conscious. The other gentlemen and the other princes were also here. How could my daughter-in-law have forged an imperial edict?"

"It was an order from the Emperor himself."

Sheng Nanzhi told Concubine Hua everything that had happened in the palace before, and the corners of Concubine Hua's mouth, which were slightly raised, gradually lowered.

She sneered, "The emperor wants to punish those ignorant people, but he still wants to step on my son."

"Why should my son be a target for him? He might as well not have the position of Crown Prince!"

As she spoke, she was about to tear up the imperial edict.

Sheng Nanzhi quickly protected the imperial edict and lowered her voice: "Mother, it will be useful."

Seeing Concubine Hua looking at her in confusion, Sheng Nanzhi did not explain, but just repeated: "Mother, this imperial edict is useful."

"This position of crown prince is also useful."

"Mother, just wait."

Although when he was summoned to the palace before, Shi Huaizhi once said that the emperor was about to die.

But she really didn't know when this would happen.

But it is definitely not wrong to keep this thing.

Sheng Nanzhi was just thinking when he heard a sudden cry of surprise from inside the palace. Then, the shrill voice of the eunuch general was heard: "Someone! Quickly, someone! His Majesty has fainted again! Quickly call the imperial physician!"

Concubine Hua frowned, retracted her gaze that was attracted by the movement over there, and just snorted and laughed nonchalantly: "Fainted again."

"I wonder how long he will continue this drama."

Sheng Nanzhi was surprised. It turned out that Concubine Hua also knew clearly that the emperor was performing an opera.

but……

Sheng Nanzhi looked at the palace that had suddenly become chaotic and the eunuchs who hurried out of the palace, and couldn't help but frown slightly.

The emperor had performed the opera before in order to get several princes to attack and kill Wen Tingyun.

It also gave him a reason to vent his anger on them.

But this time, why?

He had just woken up and there seemed to be no reason to sing.

Sheng Nanzhi couldn't help but think of Shi Huaizhi's words again. He said that he had arranged everything.

He said that the emperor was about to die and there was absolutely no way he would do anything to her.

Sheng Nanzhi's eyelashes trembled slightly. What if Shi Huaizhi really meant that he was about to die?

Is it today?

Sheng Nanzhi's eyelashes trembled slightly. Although there was a possibility that the emperor would perform an opera, she could not take it lightly.

She quickly stuffed the imperial edict into Concubine Hua's hands and said, "Mother, I have to go to the palace to take a look."

If the emperor really were to die, she, the newly promoted Crown Princess, would have to be present no matter what.

If she were not there, and one of the princes had some ulterior motives and took the opportunity to control the palace, the situation would be unfavorable for them.

Sheng Nanzhi bit her lip and said, "Please, mother, deliver the imperial edict to the palace gate and give it to a secret guard named Beifeng beside me."

"This matter is extremely important. It would be best if Mother could go personally to deliver it, but if that is not possible, please find a trusted confidant who is absolutely trustworthy."

"The sooner the better."

Sheng Nanzhi quickly approached Concubine Hua, pretended to hug her, and whispered something quickly in her ear.

Concubine Hua looked up in surprise, her face full of disbelief.

Sheng Nanzhi said hurriedly: "Mother, now is not the time to be surprised. I will explain the specific situation to you in detail after the matter is settled."

"This imperial edict must be delivered to him."

Concubine Hua nodded: "Okay, I understand."

She stammered as she looked at the imperial edict in her hand, but suddenly couldn't help laughing out loud: "You're right, this imperial edict is really well-written."

She turned her head and glanced into the hall: "I hope he's not just performing this time."

After she finished speaking, she left in a hurry.

Sheng Nanzhi then straightened her clothes slightly and quickly entered the palace again: "What's wrong? What happened? What happened? What happened to my father?"

"I was just outside the palace and hadn't left when I heard someone screaming, saying that the emperor had fainted again?"

The emperor was surrounded by people in three layers. They heard Sheng Nanzhi's question, but no one came to answer her.

Sheng Nanzhi quickly shouted, "Stop crowding around!"

"The emperor is unconscious. Please spread out so that he can breathe."

Still no one paid any attention, and no one stepped back. There was a lot of noise and chaos over there.

Sheng Nanzhi bit her lip. She wanted to go see what was going on inside, but she was pregnant now, and there were too many people surrounding her. If she was not careful, they would easily squeeze her and hit her belly.

Although she was anxious, she knew the priorities and did not get close.

She was scratching her head, wishing she could pull all these people apart to find out what was going on.

Suddenly, the trembling voice of the chief eunuch was heard from inside: "Your Majesty... Your Majesty seems to be... not breathing!"

"what?"

"Imperial Physician! Where is the Imperial Physician? Where is the Imperial Physician?"

The people surrounding the emperor finally dispersed a little. Sheng Nanzhi took two steps back and stood aside. He was shocked by the words of the eunuch chief just now and felt a little unbelievable.

The emperor...is not breathing?

Are you really going to die?
