He wanted to keep protestants ruling so he wanted Lady Jane Grey to go on as England's Queen. His sister was in line for the throne after Edward VI but she wasn't a protestant, she was a catholic. Mary (Bloody Mary) was frustrated so she got to rule England.

Edward VI attempted to secure the future of Protestantism in England by nominating Lady Jane Grey, a staunch Protestant, as his heir instead of his half-sister Mary Tudor who was a devout Catholic. He also issued a "Devise for the Succession," which further outlined his desire for a Protestant successor. However, Edward's efforts ultimately failed as Lady Jane Grey was overthrown by Mary Tudor, who restored Catholicism as the official religion of England.
