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

Because of Xiao Tianzi's loud commotion, the news of Concubine Rou Guipin's coma spread throughout the harem in less than half an hour.

Gu Shijin had just woken up from a coma, and now another noble concubine fell into a coma. For a while, everyone in the harem was in a panic.

This time, the empress arrived at Mengzhuxuan before the emperor. Looking at the pale-faced Concubine Rou lying on the bed, the empress asked the imperial physician, "Imperial physician, what happened to Concubine Rou?"

The imperial physician's brows were furrowed and relaxed, and he looked like he was very troubled by Concubine Rou's illness.

Shangguan Yan was extremely upset. Concubines in the harem kept falling into coma. Even if it was not her fault as the queen, she was still responsible for poor management.

Shangguan Yan: "Imperial Physician! What happened to Concubine Rou?"

"Ah!" The imperial physician finally reacted and said, "Your Majesty, it doesn't seem like Concubine Rou Gui was poisoned, but rather she was angry!"

"That's good." Shangguan Yan breathed a sigh of relief and his complexion became a little better. As long as he was not poisoned, it would be fine.

Shangguan Yan looked at the maid of Concubine Rou and asked, "Why is your young mistress so angry? What happened in Mengzhuxuan today?!"

"Young Master...she...she..." The palace maid hesitated, looking like she wanted to say something but didn't dare to.

Shangguan Yan frowned and said sternly, "When you reply to me, why are you hesitating so much?"

"Yes, Madam, the young lady was taken away by Ningyu Pavilion..."

"The Emperor has arrived." The eunuch's voice interrupted the palace maid's reply.

Shangguan Yan's eyes flashed. She just heard the palace maid say the three words Ningyu Pavilion.

"My concubine pays your respects to the Emperor."

"Your servant/servant pays respect to His Majesty."

Lu Junze walked to the front and sat down, waving his hand: "Everyone get up."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

"What happened to Concubine Rou?" Lu Junze asked. The calmness on his face was in stark contrast to the anxiety he had when he learned that Gu Shijin was poisoned that day.

Shangguan Yan picked up the tea and handed it to Lu Junze, saying, "Your Majesty, the imperial physician said that it was caused by anger."

Lu Junze took the tea, took a sip, and put it down again: “What’s going on?”

Shangguan Yan glanced at Concubine Rou's maid, who knelt in front of him and began to talk about what happened in Mengzhuxuan today.

"Did Concubine Rou know that the bracelet Concubine Jin gave her was poisonous, so she fainted from anger?" Lu Junze asked back.

The maid nodded and said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Lu Junze looked at the palace maid and said in an unclear tone: "Go and get the bracelet."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The bracelet was placed on the table in the room. The maid took it out and Lu Junze was about to take it, but was stopped by Shangguan Yan: "Your Majesty, this bracelet..."

Lu Junze: “No problem.”

Lu Junze took it and looked at it, then handed it to the imperial physician: "See if it is poisonous or not."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

The imperial physician carefully examined the bracelet for about half a cup of tea, and then said, "Your Majesty, this bracelet is not poisonous, but it has been soaked in a potion for a long time and cannot be used with agarwood.

There is agarwood in the drunkenness.

"What will happen if we use them together?" Lu Junze asked.

"Your Majesty, if used together, it will cause physical weakness, and it will be irreversible."

Lu Junze nodded, looked into the inner room, and said, "Is Concubine Rou awake?"

"Your Majesty, I gave Concubine Rou an acupuncture injection and she has woken up."

Just after she finished speaking, Concubine Rou Gui came out with a wronged look on her face, with tears on her face. She knelt in front of Lu Junze and said, "Please, Your Majesty, make the decision for me."

"I have no grudge against Jinpin, why would she want to harm me?"

Lu Junze did not answer Concubine Rou, nor did he ask her to get up. Instead, he took the bracelet and placed it in front of Concubine Rou, and said, "Is this the bracelet?"

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Okay, very good." Lu Junze looked ugly and spoke in a cold tone.

When Concubine Rou saw this, a smile flashed across her eyes, but only the Queen found it unusual.

"Bang!" The bracelet was thrown in front of Concubine Rou, and Lu Junze said sternly: "Concubine Rou, didn't you give this bracelet to Concubine Jin?"

This……

Concubine Rou looked up at Lu Junze with a look of confusion. When did she give the bracelet to Concubine Jin?

"Your Majesty, I have never given a bracelet to Concubine Jin." Concubine Rou explained.

Lu Junze didn't say anything, but just stared at Concubine Rou, making her feel uneasy.

Why did Lu Junze know that this bracelet was given to Gu Shijin by Concubine Rou? Because after Concubine Rou gave the bracelet to Gu Shijin, Gu Shijin asked someone to take the bracelet to find Lu Junze.

Gu Shijin was just being cautious at the time. After all, she had seen it in the hands of a suspicious palace maid. It appeared in front of her for no reason, and Gu Shijin didn't believe that there was no reason behind it.

This is the harem, and there is a deep meaning behind everything everyone does.

Seeing that the emperor did not believe her, Concubine Rou explained, "Your Majesty, this bracelet is made of simple materials. Why would I give Concubine Jin something like this?"

"Yes, this bracelet is not precious, so why do you wear it on your hand?" Lu Junze asked back.

That’s because I think the style of this bracelet is beautiful.

"Last time you went to Ningyu Pavilion to deliver something, this bracelet was among those things. Jinpin told me because she had seen it on a palace maid's hand!" By now, Lu Junze probably guessed that this bracelet was indeed not Concubine Rou's, and she was probably just being used by someone.

Palace maid! Concubine Rou remembered that she was bumped into by a palace maid on her way to Ningyu Pavilion that day!

"Your Majesty, I was bumped into by a palace maid on my way to Ningyu Pavilion that day." said Concubine Rou Guipin.

"Oh? What's it called?"

Concubine Rou shook her head and said firmly: "Your Majesty, I don't know the name of that maid, but I know she is the maid beside Concubine Ming."

Concubine Rougui has been in the palace for quite some time, and she knows very well who is around each concubine.

Ming Jieyushi was a low-key person and she usually did not do evil to others. It was true that when the palace maid bumped into her that day, Concubine Rou Guipin did not pursue the matter too much.

"The Lady Jinpin has arrived"

"Your concubine pays respects to the Emperor and the Empress." Gu Shijin walked in with the support of Xingzhu.

When Lu Junze saw Gu Shijin coming, he hurried forward to help him up: "Why are you here? Are you feeling better?"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I am feeling much better now." Although she said that, Gu Shijin's body was almost leaning on Xingzhu.

"Quick, help your young lady sit down." Lu Junze pointed to a stool with an armrest.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After Gu Shijin sat down, she said weakly, "Your Majesty, I heard that what happened in Mengzhuxuan was related to me, so I came here to see you. Your Majesty, I acted on my own initiative."

Lu Junze waved his hand and said, “Someone wronged you, it’s normal for you to come and take a look.”

"I didn't expect that you would be so impatient just after Jinpin woke up." Lu Junze looked at Rouguipin with disgust.

In the side hall of Lily Palace, Concubine Ming also received the news.

This little eunuch was sent by Concubine Ming to keep an eye on Ningyu Pavilion. Gu Shijin had always known that someone was keeping an eye on Ningyu Pavilion, but she hadn't found out who was behind it. This time she let Xiao Linzi make use of him, and it turned out to be just as she expected.
