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

The harem was peaceful for the next two months, but there were indeed many disturbances in the previous dynasty.

First, Yunfeng Kingdom and Daxia went to war, but they did not fight outright. The armies of the two countries just had some friction on the border, and then Yunfeng Kingdom retreated. I don’t know what Yunfeng Kingdom was thinking.

Lu Junze appointed the general who guards the country as the marshal and led the troops to attack the Yunfeng Kingdom.

Another important matter is that the virtuous prince asked the emperor for permission to return to Beijing to visit his mother.

The Great Xia Dynasty still attached great importance to filial piety, and the reasons given by the wise king were also very appropriate. Lu Junze did not refuse and agreed to his request.

However, the imperial decree given by Lu Junze was to have the virtuous king set out from his fiefdom in October and return to his fiefdom after celebrating the New Year in the capital.

"Your Majesty, will the virtuous king quietly come to the capital ahead of time?" Tian Lin asked.

The virtuous king must have some plan for going to the capital at this time, and he would definitely not go to the capital according to the time stated in Lu Junze's imperial edict.

Lu Junze sneered and said, “He will definitely go to Beijing in advance.”

The army in the Misty Forest has been almost dealt with by Lu Junze, and the wise king must be unable to sit still.

"Then Your Majesty, should we go on the road..." Tianlin made a gesture of wiping his neck.

Even if something happens, it cannot be blamed on the capital. It was the wise king who disobeyed the imperial edict.

"No." Lu Junze said, "I also want to know where he hid the money. It's a lot of money."

Lu Junze didn't know about this at first, and it was Feng Zhaoyi who told him.

Having money can bring you back to life. In order to prevent the money from being taken away by someone with ulterior motives in the future, Lu Junze felt that it would be safer to keep it in his own hands.

Moreover, the threat posed by the virtuous king is not great now. Lu Junze is confident that even if the virtuous king enters the capital, he will not cause any big waves.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Keep a close eye on Mu Yunerruo." This princess is very ambitious and she will definitely take action.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After Tianlin left, Lu Junze looked at the pile of memorials on the table and sighed. He had only been away for five months, so how come so many government affairs had piled up? What were the officials under him doing for a living?

……

As Lu Junze expected, after receiving the imperial edict from Lu Junze, the virtuous king did not follow the arrangements in the edict, but secretly went to the capital with Mu Yunerruo the next day.

"Your Highness, why do you want to bring Princess Mu Yun with you?" the wise king's aide asked in a low voice.

The second Princess Mu Yun was extremely pampered. There were a lot of things going on along the way, but she was still arrogant and bossy to people like them.

The virtuous king glanced at Mu Yunerruo, who was sitting beside him and being fanned by a maid, with a trace of contempt in his eyes. He said, "We need Yunfeng to send troops to the border of Xia Dynasty to disrupt the situation in Xia Dynasty and bring people with us. Only then will the people of Yunfeng trust me and help me with all their strength."

"Besides, I will not feel at ease if I don't keep her by my side."

The wise king knew very well what Mu Yunerruo was thinking.

"Your Majesty is wise." The aide said after listening.

As expected of the person he is loyal to, he thinks things through so carefully.

"You keep a close eye on Mu Yunerruo. If she makes any unusual moves, don't be polite." The wise king said to the leader of his guards.

When he succeeds and sits on the throne, Mu Yunerruo will no longer be important to him. This woman has threatened him several times, and he will make her pay the price sooner or later.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Mu Yunerruo watched the wise king and his companions talking from a distance, with a sarcastic smile on her lips. This wise king was so stupid but had such a big heart, he deserved to be only a prince.

If it wasn't for Yunfeng Country, why would she choose to marry such a person.

Lu Junze, since you don’t want to marry me, then this princess will take over your kingdom, and then it will be the same if I marry you.

Thinking of this, a sinister smile appeared on Mu Yunerruo's face. The maidservant who was serving Mu Yunerruo beside him lowered her head quickly when she saw it, not daring to look up again.

Lu Junze received the news on the second day after the wise king and his group left the fiefdom. When he saw that Mu Yunerruo had come with them, he knew that his guess had come true.

These two people are simply a nest of snakes and rats. No one trusts the other, but they want to take advantage of each other.

"Find an opportunity to sow discord between these two people." Lu Junze said.

The relationship between these two people is already unstable. If they are provoked a little more, they might break up before they even reach the capital.

Tianlin: “Yes.”

"How is Concubine Chen today?" Lu Junze looked at Su Deyuan and asked.

"Your Majesty, she's fine. Today, Imperial Physician Song checked the imperial concubine's pulse and said everything is fine." Su Deyuan said.

Lu Junze has been busy lately, and Song Jibai rarely comes to see him unless he has something to do.

"That's good." Lu Junze nodded.

Another reason why Lu Junze asked the virtuous king to come back in October was that he wanted to wait until Gu Shijin gave birth to avoid any accidents at that time.

Although the virtuous king did not obey the time in the imperial edict and came quietly, since he came quietly, he could not enter the palace, so Lu Junze would have fewer concerns.

The palace is now completely under Lu Junze's control. Although there are still a few young people in the harem, it is not a big problem.

……

In the harem, Gu Shijin only knew some general information and didn't know the details, so she didn't know that Lu Junze had done so many things for her.

As the time of delivery drew closer, Gu Shijin stayed in Chenhua Palace most of the time, and only went to the Imperial Garden when he was bored.

But recently, there have been many uninvited guests coming to Chenhua Palace, such as Feng Zhaoyi who came today.

"How come Concubine Feng has time to come here?" Gu Shijin looked at Concubine Feng, who was dressed simply, and felt dazed. When did Concubine Feng become like this? She was completely different from the Concubine Feng a few months ago.

Feng Zhaoyi smiled and stood up, bowed and said, "Greetings to the Imperial Concubine. May the Imperial Concubine live a thousand years and live a long and healthy life."

"No need to be polite, Concubine Feng." As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person. Facing such a Concubine Feng, Gu Shijin could only greet her with a smile.

Gu Shijin originally thought that Feng Zhaoyi came here today for some reason, or was here to cause trouble, but it turned out that Feng Zhaoyi really came here just to chat with her.

The two of them didn't have much of a relationship to begin with, and they couldn't even chat on the same wavelength. After chatting for about two quarters of an hour, Gu Shijin saw that Feng Zhaoyi really had nothing to say, so he said he was tired and wanted to go take a rest.

"I'm sorry to bother you today, Your Majesty. I'll take my leave now."

"Your Majesty, why did you go to see the Imperial Concubine today?" Wu Yun asked, but she didn't do anything after meeting her.

Feng Zhaoyi turned her head and glanced at Wu Yun, who immediately lowered her head and said, "It was this servant who overstepped the boundaries."

"Just do your own thing. It's not your turn to take care of my affairs." Feng Zhaoyi said coldly.

"Your Majesty, why do you think Concubine Feng came to Chenhua Palace today?" Xingyue was also confused.

Gu Shijin: "As long as she has no evil intentions, don't worry about her."
