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

Gu Shijin was thinking about something and didn't fall asleep soundly, so he woke up as soon as the door of the dark room was opened.

She quietly clenched the dagger under her pillow, secretly guessing who the visitor was.

"Jin'er."

Lu Junze is very good at kung fu. As soon as he came in, he found that Gu Shijin's breathing was disordered.

Hearing that it was Lu Junze's voice, Gu Shijin breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and looked at Lu Junze, his eyes instantly red.

When Gu Shijin moved, the cup on her body fell down, and the dagger in her hand appeared in Lu Junze's eyes.

Lu Junze walked up quickly, sat on the bed, hugged Lu Junze into his arms, patted her back, and said, “I’m sorry to make Jin’er worry.”

"Okay, okay, it's okay, everything is resolved." Lu Junze kept comforting.

Gu Shijin didn't actually want to cry, but for some reason, she couldn't control her eyes and her tears fell uncontrollably.

This is because pregnancy makes people more sensitive, and Gu Shijin has been worried and frightened for a few days, so he is relaxed now, so this happened.

"Your Majesty, has everything been resolved? Has the person behind the scenes been caught?" Gu Shijin asked while sobbing.

Lu Junze took the handkerchief and wiped Gu Shijin's face, saying, "He's been caught. I'm sorry to have made Jin'er worried."

Gu Shijin shook her head. In fact, she could understand that as an emperor, it was inevitable to encounter such things, but she could not control her emotions.

Lu Junze: "Jin'er has been wronged these days."

"I don't feel wronged. Every day is fine." I can eat and sleep well.

This is the truth. Except for this afternoon, Gu Shijin was not really worried at other times because she was quite confident in Lu Junze and felt that he would be able to solve the matter and catch the murderer behind the scenes.

But Lu Junze didn't think so. He thought Gu Shijin said this just to comfort him.

"Then Your Majesty, can we go out now?" Gu Shijin asked.

No matter how comfortably the dark room was decorated, Gu Shijin was already tired of living there.

"I'm just here to pick Jin'er up."

The saying that there is strength in numbers is very reasonable. This house had clearly just experienced a fight, but when Lu Junze brought Gu Shijin out of the dark room, the house had become clean and tidy. There was no sign of what had happened, and there was not even a hint of blood.

But the yard was wet everywhere, and Gu Shijin could imagine what had happened here.

Gu Shijin took a deep breath. He could already imagine the scene outside with corpses everywhere.

However, after living in ancient times for so many years, Gu Shijin has already adapted to these things. Human life is the least valuable to the royal family, let alone those who want to kill Lu Junze.

Gu Shijin is not a saint, and staying alive is the most important thing.

I thought Lu Junze was going to take me back to the house, but the more I walked, the more I felt something was wrong. “Your Majesty, where are we going?”

When being alone with Lu Junze, Gu Shijin spoke more and more casually. This might be a point that Gu Shijin himself did not notice, but Lu Junze noticed it, and he was very happy.

"Let's go back to the boat." Lu Junze said, holding Gu Shijin's hand.

Gu Shijin looked up at the sky and it was almost midnight.

"Your Majesty, today is the third day," Gu Shijin suddenly said.

Lu Junze stopped and turned to look at Gu Shijin, “Yes, I didn’t break my promise to Yu Jiner.”

"I'm very happy." Lu Junze said this with a deep smile on his face.

Gu Shijin smiled, and it was a genuine smile. "I'm very happy too."

Maybe in the future she can give Lu Junze more trust. Like and love cannot be given out, but appropriate trust can.

We can't let Lu Junze make unilateral efforts all the time, we still have to give him appropriate rewards.

There was already a carriage waiting outside the house. Lu Junze was very quiet when he got off the boat, but he returned with great fanfare, with several hundred imperial guards alone.

"Your Majesty, I am disturbing the people." Gu Shijin made a little joke.

Lu Junze scratched Gu Shijin's nose and said, "There are not many people living nearby, and we will have to take a detour when we go back. Don't worry, Jin'er, I won't disturb anyone."

"Yeah." Gu Shijin knew that Lu Junze was a good emperor and he would not do anything to disturb the people.

Lu Junze did not disturb anyone, but he really scared the people on the boat.

What the deputy commander of the secret guards said about the situation on the ship being controlled by Gu Chengfeng was true, because everyone was under Gu Chengfeng's control, but he did not tell the Queen and Prime Minister Shangguan that you have failed, so these two are still dreaming.

When they learned that the emperor's carriage had returned, the two men immediately panicked and wanted to resist, but were captured by Gu Chengfeng's men the next second.

"Hahaha... Lu Junze... good tricks." At this point, Prime Minister Shangguan still had nothing to understand.

"You are so brave to use yourself as bait."

Gu Chengfeng rolled his eyes when he heard what Prime Minister Shangguan said. He really didn't understand what Prime Minister Shangguan was making a fuss about. Wasn't the Shangguan family's life in the capital good enough?

Although Prime Minister Shangguan did not have real power, the emperor respected him enough. He was very respectful to the emperor when he went out in the capital. But now...

Ugh……

Lu Junze came back, and a large number of ministers knelt at the dock to greet him. Of course, another reason was that they wanted to see if the emperor was really okay.

Therefore, when most people saw Lu Junze coming out of the carriage safely, they breathed a sigh of relief.

But when they saw Lu Junze reaching out to the carriage and leading Concubine Chen out of it, some people took a deep breath.

Those who could serve as officials under Lu Junze were not fools. They quickly guessed that the emperor had deliberately disembarked this time, and the assassination was also within his expectations. However, under such circumstances, Lu Junze still wanted to take Concubine Chen with him...

It seems that the Emperor really values ​​Concubine Chen.

"See your Majesty, long live my Emperor."

"Greetings to Her Majesty the Imperial Concubine Chen."

"No need to be polite, just stand up." Lu Junze said as he looked at the kneeling people.

It was so late now, and Lu Junze couldn't discuss things with the ministers at this time. He just said a few words and let them go.

"Your Majesty, I will go back first." Gu Shijin said. She had already seen Xingyue's red eyes.

"Okay, Jin'er, go back and have a good rest." Lu Junze said. He didn't have time to see her today.

"Okay, Your Majesty should also rest early."

After Gu Shijin left, Gu Chengfeng walked to Lu Junze and reported to him what had happened on the ship in the past two days.

"Where are Prime Minister Shangguan and the Queen?" Lu Junze asked.

"In the room." Actually, it was in the utility room, but Gu Chengfeng was a little uncomfortable saying it.

"Take me to see them."

Gu Chengfeng was stunned for a moment, then said: "Let me bring them here." This utility room is not very clean.

"Alright."
