Lu Junze was worried outside, his mind unconsciously flashing through what had happened recently, and the anger in his heart grew stronger and stronger.

Suddenly, Lu Junze's mind flashed through the amethyst bracelet on Gu Shijin's hand. Gu Shijin usually wore things on his hands, but he would never wear such flashy things. Amethyst just looked beautiful, but it was not of high value in this palace.

Lu Junze remembered that this amethyst bracelet was given by the Queen. He was not surprised at all that the Queen gave him such a thing. The Queen did not like Gu Shijin, so giving him such a flashy thing was the best thing. It would neither make her lose her status as the Queen nor let Gu Shijin get away with it.

Thinking of this, Lu Junze sneered. The queen is becoming more and more stingy.

Lu Junze walked to a more secluded corner of the room and said to the air: "Go check that amethyst bracelet."

There was no response from the room, but the vibration of the air could be felt.

Gu Shijin's health was actually pretty good. The reason for the unexpected pregnancy was because of a variety of things happening at the same time, and Song Jibai came out very soon.

"emperor."

"How is Jin'er?" Lu Junze asked, grabbing Song Jibai's hand.

Song Jibai nodded and said, "The child could not be protected, but Concubine Jin is in good health. If she takes good care of herself for a while, there will be no problem."

Lu Junze breathed a sigh of relief. Song Jibai understood him and immediately gave him the answer to what he wanted to know most. It was within Lu Junze's expectations that the child could not be saved. As long as Gu Shijin was fine, he could still have a child in the future.

But after this incident, Gu Shijin was afraid that he would be sad for a long time. Lu Junze had already seen that Gu Shijin treated children differently. Gu Shijin might not have deep feelings for himself, but his feelings for children were more real. Lu Junze sometimes envied Ajin and Ayuan.

Lu Junze really didn't feel wrong. When Gu Shijin traveled here, Lu Junze was already her husband, and this could not be changed. In the imperial society, she could only try to adapt, but the child was different. This was Gu Shijin's own biological child. She experienced the whole process of being a mother, which also gave her a sense of belonging here.

Defei pushed Gu Shijin, and the news of Gu Shijin's miscarriage soon spread throughout the harem. Everyone was shocked. This was Jinfei, the apple of the emperor's eye. No one expected Defei to be so bold.

Whether they were really sad for Gu Shijin or wanted to watch the drama between Gu Shijin and Concubine De, most of the people in the harem went to Chenhua Palace.

Therefore, when Gu Shijin woke up, he was met with a lot of eyes.

Gu Shijin: “…”

"Jin'er, are you awake?" Seeing this, Lu Junze hurried forward to support Gu Shijin, "The imperial physician told you to rest well and don't get up."

"Your Majesty, the child..." Gu Shijin touched her belly with one hand, and the tears in her eyes became uncontrollable again.

As a mother, she already felt that her child was gone.

"Jin Fei, there will be more in the future." Shangguan Yan comforted her, but there was a look of gloating in his eyes.

"Your Majesty...our child..." Gu Shijin shouted, with deep hatred in his eyes.

She hated Concubine De. If Concubine De had not poisoned the third and fourth princes, she would not have been so distressed by this matter. She hated herself even more. Not only did she fail to protect her own child, but she also used him. She also hated the Queen.

Gu Shijin took a look at the crystal bracelet on her hand. At first, the amethyst bracelet given by the queen was indeed fine, but later the queen sent someone to Chenhua Palace to replace the amethyst bracelet with the one she was wearing now, which was soaked in potion.

This bracelet actually has nothing to do with the miscarriage, but the queen has wanted to hurt her child, and Gu Shijin will not let go of this opportunity.

Since she is going to use this child, she might as well use it more thoroughly.

Gu Shijin lowered his eyes to hide the emotions in them.

"Your Majesty, I'm sorry. It's all my fault that I failed to protect our child." Gu Shijin grabbed Lu Junze's arm, speaking each word clearly, with a tone of grief.

"Jin'er, Jin'er." Lu Junze held Gu Shijin's hand tightly, "What happened today has nothing to do with you. Someone else wanted to harm you."

As he spoke, Lu Junze turned around and looked at the group of women in the room, a hint of annoyance flashed in his eyes. Concubine De was still kneeling outside, not here.

Lu Junze glanced around calmly, and finally fixed his eyes on Queen Shangguan Yan. He said, "Queen, I remember you gave a purple crystal bracelet to Concubine Jin?"

Shangguan Yan was shocked, but then she forced herself to calm down. It was no secret that she gave Gu Shijin the amethyst, but no one should know that she secretly had someone replace the amethyst bracelet with another one. She did it very covertly, and everyone who knew the news had been silenced by her.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Yan felt more confident. She smiled and said, "Your Majesty, I did give a purple crystal bracelet to Concubine Jin."

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw the amethyst bracelet on Gu Shijin's hand, and the coldness and fierceness in Gu Shijin's eyes when he looked at her. Shangguan Yan's heart skipped a beat...

"Okay, okay, as long as it's from you." Lu Junze turned around and gently took off the amethyst bracelet on Gu Shijin's hand, threw it in front of Shangguan Yan with a bang, and said coldly: "Then take a good look at this bracelet!"

"Your Majesty, please calm down." All of a sudden, the concubines and palace maids knelt down in the room.

Shangguan Yan closed her eyes and said, "Your Majesty, this is not the bracelet I gave you. Moreover, the bracelet I gave you was examined by the imperial physician in front of Concubine Jin at Chenhua Palace. There is no way there is a problem."

"Your Majesty, I have been wronged."

"Your Majesty, you have to make the decision for me!"

Lu Junze looked at the queen. He and the queen had been married since childhood. He knew that the queen had always been angry about not having a prince. In the past, Lu Junze would comfort her, but now, this person was really getting worse and worse.

Lu Junze: "Queen, I will give you one last chance. Is this bracelet given by you?"

Shangguan Yan's heart trembled, then she raised her head and looked into Lu Junze's eyes, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, this bracelet was not given by me." There could be no problem with her plan, and now she had Concubine De to take the blame for her, so she couldn't lose her composure.

"Okay, very good." Lu Junze sneered and looked at Su Deyuan who had been cautious beside him, "Go and bring the person over."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

These things had been prepared long ago. Before Shangguan Yan could guess clearly, Su Deyuan had already brought people in.

When Shangguan Yan saw the person being brought in, his pupils shrank and his body trembled.
