The emperor just doesn't treat everyone equally, and it's none of my business!

Concubine Chun knew that Lu Junze would not let her go. If that was the case, there was nothing more to say.

But Concubine Chun felt guilty about Liu Tai. If he hadn't fallen in love with her, Liu Tai would have had his own world, but he was huddled in the harem and was finally caught by Lu Junze.

But after so many years, Concubine Chun's feelings for Liu Tai became more of dependence than love, and she was used to Liu Tai helping her solve everything.

Until now, she just wanted to do everything she could to save Liu Tai's life.

Unfortunately, Lu Junze didn't come here today to discuss these things with Concubine Chun, but because he had something to ask Concubine Chun.

"Why would the Concubine Dowager agree to help you harm the Third Prince?" Lu Junze had never been able to figure this out. Compared to the Virtuous King, the Concubine Dowager had always been very careful in the palace. In order to reassure Lu Junze, she basically didn't have too much contact with other people.

Lu Junze has always known that there is something wrong with the concubine, but he has no evidence in his hands, so he doesn't think there is anything wrong with the concubine.

The Dowager Concubine is not like other concubines. She raised Lu Junze for a period of time. Daxia is a country that takes mourning very seriously. If one wants to deal with the Dowager Concubine, there must be sufficient evidence.

The imperial concubine originally thought that Lu Junze was going to ask about other things, but it turned out to be this. Imperial Concubine Chun was silent for a moment and said, “I don’t know, but she agreed when I asked the imperial concubine.”

Lu Junze looked into Concubine Chun's eyes and said, "Is it Liu Tai?"

Concubine Chun did not say anything else. It was true. She had not thought of asking the imperial concubine for help at first. It was Liu Tai who told her that she might ask the imperial concubine for help.

Concubine Chun and the Concubine Dowager had no connection, and she felt that the Concubine Dowager would definitely not agree, but Liu Tai said that he would leave the matter to her, so that even if something went wrong, the blame could be put on the Concubine Dowager.

Concubine Chun thought that this was indeed the truth, so she agreed. But she didn't know what conditions Liu Tai and Concubine Chun had negotiated.

But there is no point in saying all this now, and she is willing to take responsibility for this matter for Liu Tai.

"Your Majesty, it was done by me. It has nothing to do with Liu Tai."

Lu Junze came here today not to necessarily know anything from Concubine Chun, but just to test the waters. Now he has got the answer he wanted.

Concubine Chun, who stayed in the palace every day and had no contact with the virtuous king before entering the palace, really had no connection with the virtuous king.

After getting what he wanted, Lu Junze didn't want to waste time here with Concubine Chun anymore.

"The second princess is already seven years old. She will live in Xiefang Palace from now on. I will send her to the Shangshufang."

Concubine Chun had already understood what Lu Junze meant. She kowtowed and said, "Your Majesty, Xinxi is your child. She has done nothing wrong. I hope she can grow up happily."

As Lu Junze walked out, he said, “You should stay in Weiyang Palace from now on.”

"Xinxi is also my child. I will naturally teach her well."

Lu Junze is not a suspicious emperor. Besides, the second princess looks quite similar to him, and one can tell at a glance that they are father and son.

Lu Junze did not directly issue an order to convict the imperial concubine, but only said that the imperial concubine was ill and was temporarily recuperating in the Weiyang Palace, and no one else should disturb her.

There are two reasons for doing this. The first is that the imperial concubine cheated on Lu Junze, but Lu Junze could never tell this story. Not only would the imperial concubine be guilty, but it would also be embarrassing for him as the emperor. The second reason was that Duke Dingguo also helped a lot when Lu Junze ascended the throne. The imperial concubine Chun was his only daughter, and Lu Junze was willing to give him some face.

Looking at Lu Junze's ruthless back, Concubine Chun already knew that Lu Junze would never let Liu Tai go.

By now he had figured out what Lu Junze was doing here, but...

"I owe you a lot." Concubine Chun said while looking at the osmanthus tree in the yard.

It is impossible for osmanthus to bloom this month, but looking at this osmanthus tree, Concubine Chun was reminded of the scene when she planted it.

At that time, Liu Tai had just sneaked into the palace. Although Concubine Chun was terrified and afraid of being discovered by Lu Junze, she was very happy in her heart.

When she first entered the palace, Concubine Chun was also very nervous. Facing all kinds of women in the palace, she sometimes felt very helpless. Although Concubine Chun was the daughter of Duke Dingguo, in fact, because the wife of Duke Dingguo doted on her very much, she had the mentality of a little girl, otherwise she would not have done such a thing as eloping with others.

So at that time Liu Tai sneaked into the palace and came to her side to calm her somewhat frightened heart.

The two decided to plant an osmanthus tree in the Weiyang Palace because they first met under an osmanthus tree.

Because Concubine Chun was born into a noble family, she was given the position of concubine as soon as she entered the palace. It was quite simple just by asking the Ministry of Internal Affairs to send her an osmanthus tree.

"Atai, I'm sorry." Concubine Chun said while looking at the osmanthus tree.

Over the years, they have been chasing power and have long forgotten their original intentions. Their love for each other is no longer pure. Concubine Chun did not fail to notice that Liu Tai was using her, but after all, she was more sorry for Liu Tai, so she often pretended not to know about it.

"What a bad fate." Concubine Chun closed her eyes, tears falling down her cheeks to the ground, "I hope we won't meet again in the next life."

In this life, they met each other at the best age, but did not get a good ending.

"Atai, I hope you are safe." After staying in the harem for so many years, Concubine Chun still has some understanding of Lu Junze and knows what to do to save Liu Tai.

Concubine Chun got up from the ground, walked to the desk and wrote for a long time.

In the evening, Lu Junze was discussing things with some ministers. Although Lu Junze was the emperor, he still had to work overtime, and the ministers would not choose a time when they had urgent matters to report.

For example, now, it’s actually not a big deal, but the censor just likes to make a fuss out of nothing.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister's eldest son has become more and more arrogant and domineering recently. Many people in the capital have complaints." One of the imperial censors said indignantly.

That’s right, today these imperial censors came to the palace to report the eldest son of the Prime Minister’s Mansion, who is the emperor’s brother.

The reason for the accusation was that the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion raped a woman and even rode his horse into people in the street.

The eldest princess of the Prime Minister's Mansion is also a celebrity in the capital. She was a moron before she was ten years old, but she suddenly woke up on her tenth birthday. A Taoist priest told her that she was destined to be rich and powerful, so the Prime Minister and his wife doted on this son. As a result, she is not rich and powerful now, but arrogant and domineering.

"How do you think we should deal with this?" Lu Junze asked.

These imperial censors only came in to file complaints, but they shut up when it came to handling the matter. Lu Junze was also very annoyed.

"Your Majesty, this..."

Lu Junze didn't wait for them to say anything, and said directly: "Gu Chengfeng, go and take the eldest son of the Prime Minister's Mansion to the Ministry of Justice and let them try him."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Just then, Su Deyuan walked in in a panic.
