"Congratulations, Your Majesty. The Imperial Concubine has given birth to a little princess." The midwife bowed and said as she saw Lu Junze hurriedly entering the room.

Lu Junze nodded when he heard it, and walked towards Gu Shijin on the bed with an anxious look on his face, without even looking at the child in the nanny's arms.

This situation made the midwives unable to react. They looked at each other and then took the baby away to clean up.

"Jin'er." Lu Junze sat down beside Gu Shijin's bed, holding Gu Shijin's hands tightly, worry almost overflowing from his eyes.

The delivery was quick this time and Gu Shijin didn't suffer much. She was still conscious at the moment and felt relieved when she saw Lu Junze.

No matter how good her thoughts were, she would not feel at ease until she met the person. She was Lu Junze's concubine, and only when Lu Junze was well would she, Gu Shijin, be well.

"Thank you for your hard work, Jin'er." Lu Junze wiped the sweat from Gu Shijin's forehead with a handkerchief. He was completely relieved to see that Gu Shijin was safe and sound.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?" Gu Shijin's eyes swept over Lu Junze.

Lu Junze put Gu Shijin's hand into the quilt and covered her carefully, "It's okay, don't catch a cold."

"Your Majesty, have you seen our child? It's a little princess." Gu Shijin looked at Lu Junze and asked.

When Lu Junze heard this question, his face froze. He was worried about Jin'er. How could he have the time to see the child? He only heard that it was a little princess.

Gu Shijin was speechless. Looking at Lu Junze's expression, she knew that he didn't care about the child at all. But at the same time, she felt a warmth in her heart. She felt that it was worth it since Lu Junze cared about her so much.

Most men look at their own children first. As for the woman who gave birth to their children, as long as she is not dead, it's fine.

Lu Junze: "I'll go and see it in a while, Jin'er, have a good rest first."

Gu Shijin smiled weakly, and after he completely let go of the worry in his heart, the fatigue in his body swept over him.

While Gu Shijin was sleeping, Lu Junze saw the little princess born to Gu Shijin.

"Give me the little princess." Lu Junze said to the wet nurse.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The baby was running out of energy and had fallen asleep, with his mouth slightly pouting and his face wrinkled, but Lu Junze didn't dislike it at all. The more he looked at it, the cuter it seemed to him. It looked a lot like Gu Shijin.

"Your Majesty, the little princess looks so much like the royal concubine." Xingyue looked at the little princess in the cradle and said to Lu Junze with a smile.

In fact, the child is still very young and has not grown up yet, so it is impossible to tell who she looks like. But everyone in Chenhua Palace knows that it is correct to say that the little princess looks like the imperial concubine.

Sure enough, "Everyone in Chenhua Palace will be rewarded with three months' salary." Lu Junze said.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"Father, Father." It was the voice of the Fourth Prince.

Gu Shijin was afraid of scaring the two children, so as soon as she showed signs of giving birth, she had them sent to Xiefang Palace.

"Ajin, Ayuan." Lu Junze put the little princess on the bed and touched their heads.

"Father, is this my sister?" The third prince and the fourth prince both stared at the bed, looking at the little princess on the bed without blinking.

"Yes, this is your sister, do you like her?" Lu Junze said with a smile.

"I like it." They both said in unison, especially the Fourth Prince, who was very happy and even reached out to poke the little princess on the face.

"It's so soft."

"Touch it gently and don't poke it hard, okay?" Lu Junze said patiently.

"I understand, father." The third prince held the little princess's hand tightly, "sister."

Lu Junze still had to clean up the mess left behind by the rebellion of the virtuous king, so he played with the two little guys for a while before leaving.

"Ajin, Ayuan, are you here to accompany your sister?" Lu Junze asked softly.

"Yeah." They both nodded.

The mess of the wise king is not only in the previous dynasty, but also in the harem.

"Take Concubine Rong, Concubine Yang, Noble Lady Wang, and Noble Lady Wen to the Cining Palace." Lu Junze said as he walked out of the Chenhua Palace.

Lu Junze knew everything about the harem and didn't need Gu Chengfeng to report to him.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Su Deyuan said with his head lowered.

The atmosphere in the harem has completely changed. From now on, everyone will respect Concubine Chen as the most respected. Fortunately, I have never offended Concubine Chen.

Who could have thought that a talented person who had been in the palace for three years without any movement would suddenly gain power and become the most favored and powerful person in the harem of Daxia.

At this moment, there were many people in the harem who shared the same idea as Su Deyuan. Among them were jealous, envious, and resentful.

Why could an ordinary woman like Gu Shijin be so favored by the emperor, while she gets nothing?

This person is Concubine Wen. She thinks that she is the niece of the Concubine Dowager and the Emperor should treat her differently, but the Emperor does not care about her at all.

At this moment, Concubine Wen was kneeling in the Cining Palace, and her hatred for Lu Junze reached its peak.

"Concubine Rong! I am extremely disappointed in you." Lu Junze said as he looked at Concubine Rong who was kneeling below.

Lu Junze knew that Concubine Rong had made many small moves, but these things did not touch Lu Junze's bottom line, and Concubine Rong had been law-abiding in recent years. Lu Junze was willing to give her a chance because she had served him for many years.

But who could have thought that Concubine Rong would do such a thing today, and actually bring people to Chenhua Palace to cause trouble at such a critical moment.

"Your Majesty," Concubine Rong looked up at Lu Junze, her face calm, but her heart still hurt involuntarily, "I know I am guilty and am willing to be punished, but the eldest prince is your son, he has done nothing wrong."

Concubine Rong has been with Lu Junze for many years and has a relatively good understanding of Lu Junze's character. The emperor will not take such a matter today lightly.

“Empress Rong, you…” Lu Junze wanted to say something, but finally shook his head and sighed, “I will take good care of the eldest prince.”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Concubine Rong folded her hands and kowtowed in front of her forehead.

"Send an imperial decree to demote Concubine Rong to a noble lady, strip her of her title, and move her to Lanyue Pavilion." Lu Junze said.

He did not mention Concubine Rong's crime in order to give face to the eldest prince. The eldest prince was getting older and could not have a mother who participated in the rebellion. This incident did not cause major consequences, and Lu Junze was willing to let her go for the sake of the eldest prince.

"Yes, I obey the order."

"As for the others," Lu Junze glanced at Yang Fei and the others, "they assisted the virtuous king in his rebellion, were banished to the cold palace, and were ordered to commit suicide."

When Lady Wen heard this, she raised her head abruptly and said, "Your Majesty, I am innocent, Your Majesty!"

It was true that she was the Dowager Concubine's niece, but she had been in the palace for so long and had never done anything for the Dowager Concubine. But that was not because she didn't want to, but because the Emperor didn't go to her palace and she had no chance.
