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

"How long have you been out?" Lu Junze asked as he walked with Gu Shijin's hand, "Your hands are cold."

"Not long after I came out." Gu Shijin shook her head. Her hands were like this. They would be very cold in winter and not easy to warm up. She had gotten used to it.

A trace of helplessness flashed in Lu Junze's eyes, and he quietly used his inner strength to warm her hands, "Let's go back. It's easy to catch a cold if we're out for too long."

Gu Shijin nodded in agreement. She was fine, but the two children couldn't play outside for too long, especially A Yuan. Gu Shijin saw that his clothes were a little wet.

"Ajin, Ayuan, let's go back." Gu Shijin waved and shouted at the two children.

"I'm coming, mother." The Fourth Prince came running over.

The third prince was very steady. He walked over calmly and saluted Lu Junze.

"Father."

Lu Junze rubbed the third prince's head and asked, "Are you cold?"

The third prince shook his head. He didn’t play in the snow much. He just watched his stupid brother playing, so naturally his clothes didn’t get wet.

Lu Junze was a little helpless about the steadiness of his third child. To be honest, he now felt that children should be lively and playful. Being like Ajin was too devoid of the fun of childhood. Even he himself had played this kind of game when he was a child.

"Let's go, let's go back." Lu Junze held Gu Shijin with one hand and held the fourth prince in his arms with the other.

As for the third prince, he won't be happy even if you hold him in your arms. Just let him do it slowly on his own.

The third prince followed the nanny and walked slowly behind. He did not feel uncomfortable at all. Well, it was good that his father carried his younger brother, so that they wouldn't be unable to walk back for a long time.

"Ajin, come here, let your mother hold your hand." After walking a few steps, Gu Shijin turned to look at the third prince, stretched out her hand and said softly.

The third prince would basically never refuse his mother, so when he heard this, he reached out and held Gu Shijin's hand, and the family of four walked towards Chenhua Palace.

Su Deyuan was one step behind, and a hint of relief flashed in his eyes as he looked at the warm figure.

Some people also said that the emperor no longer liked Concubine Chen. In his opinion, the emperor might like Concubine Chen more.

After returning to Chenhua Palace, Lu Junze first sent away his two troublesome sons, and then took Gu Shijin back to the house.

As soon as Gu Shijin saw Lu Junze's plan, he knew that he had something to say to him, so he didn't let Xingzhu and the others in.

"Jin'er." After Lu Junze sat down, he pulled Gu Shijin into his arms. Looking at her slightly red cheeks, a smile flashed in his eyes. Even after giving birth to his child, Jin'er was still so shy.

Gu Shijin looked so attractive that Lu Junze couldn't help but lower his head and kiss her lips, gently tossing and turning until Gu Shijin was out of breath before letting her go.

This was not the first time that Gu Shijin was attacked by Lu Junze, but no matter how many times, she couldn't help feeling shy. It was because Lu Junze was too enthusiastic every time and she couldn't resist.

"Jin'er."

"Your Majesty." Gu Shijin pushed Lu Junze's chest and said, "You haven't explained your affairs clearly yet."

Of course, Gu Shijin would not say this directly, but the expression on her face made it very clear.

Seeing this, Lu Junze was not angry, but chuckled, and said, “Jin’er looks so beautiful when she’s jealous.”

Gu Shijin was embarrassed. Listen to what Lu Junze said. If the person in front of him was not the emperor, Lu Junze would have to punch him twice to vent his anger.

"Your Majesty!" Gu Shijin glared at Lu Junze in a feigned anger, "I dare not."

How could she, a concubine, have the right to be jealous of the emperor? The emperor was right to confer titles on whomever he liked.

"Okay, don't be angry." Lu Junze patted Gu Shijin's back and kissed him on the face. "Everything Feng Zhaoyi did happened for a reason. I wanted to ask someone to come and tell you last night, but then I thought it would be better for me to come and tell you in person."

"Feng Zhaoyi is not the Queen Mother's niece." The first sentence Lu Junze said was something Gu Shijin had not expected, but this sentence also confirmed that Feng Zhaoyi's appearance was a conspiracy.

"Your Majesty, who is Feng Zhaoyi?" Gu Shijin couldn't help but ask. People are curious. It would be fine if he didn't say it, but who can hold back after saying it?

"It should be someone sent by the Concubine Dowager and the Virtuous King." In fact, Lu Junze's men did not find out the specific background of Feng Zhaoyi, but this person could not be a good person.

In the Great Xia Dynasty, Lu Junze's men could not find a person, and that person was a beauty. There was only one possibility: this person was not from the Great Xia Dynasty. Therefore, Lu Junze had already asked people to investigate in several other countries.

As long as this person exists, there will definitely be clues.

"Your Majesty, then you..." Why did you bring her into the palace? It's so dangerous.

But it was indeed not appropriate for a concubine like her to say this, so Gu Shijin swallowed the rest of her words.

However, Lu Junze and Gu Shijin have been together for so many years, and he knows Gu Shijin very well. He said: "The concubine took the life of the King of Qin and asked the Queen Mother for help. I can't help the Queen Mother. After all, the Queen Mother has helped him a lot.

Gu Shijin nodded when he heard this. The empress dowager had not only helped the emperor, but had also helped him many times.

Although Lu Junze didn't say much, he explained the matter very clearly in just a few words.

In fact, there are some things that the more you explain, the more innocent you will be. As long as you really have not done this thing, you can make it clear in a few words. Sometimes, the more you explain, the more uneasy people will become.

There is an old saying that goes, explanation is covering up, and covering up means there is something fishy.

Lu Junze's simple yet serious attitude made Gu Shijin believe his words even more.

"Your Majesty, I understand." Gu Shijin would not falsely say that she didn't care at this time. Since Lu Junze explained to her, it means that he cares about her thoughts. Wouldn't it affect Lu Junze's mood if she said she didn't care at this time? Gu Shijin's EQ is not that low.

Gu Shijin leaned her head against Lu Junze's arms and said happily, "Your Majesty, I am so happy."

It's not just because you didn't really favor Feng Zhaoyi, but also because you came here specially to explain this matter to him in person. Gu Shijin felt that he still underestimated his position in Lu Junze's heart, and perhaps it could be improved a little bit.

"Jin'er, no matter what happens in the future, you must believe me. I will never let you and the child down." Lu Junze said solemnly.

Gu Shijin didn't take these words too seriously. This was the emperor, he could listen to his words, but if he took them too seriously he would lose.

"Your Majesty, I believe in you."

"Call me Aze." Lu Junze looked into Gu Shijin's eyes and said.

Gu Shijin was stunned for a moment, then said, "Aze."
