At that time, Gu Qingzhou was still full of joy and felt that he had been favored by Concubine Ji. He didn't have too many doubts?

But today, after hearing the emperor's words, he had to shout. Gu Qingzhou fell into deep thought.

Although the color of this jade bracelet will change over time, the change is so small that even people who wear it regularly will not notice it.

But the emperor was able to tell the abnormality of the bracelet just by looking at it, so the matter was not that simple.

After leaving the palace, Gu Qingzhou took the jade bracelet off his wrist, put it on his hand, and looked at it carefully.

Sure enough, looking at the bracelet, the overall color is indeed darker than normal.

If this were an ordinary jade bracelet, there would be nothing wrong with it.

But this was given to Concubine Ji by the Emperor himself. There are no ordinary tributes from the palace, only high-quality ones. It is absolutely impossible for jade bracelets of good quality to become so fast.

Thinking of this, Gu Qingzhou's eyes were filled with bursts of cold light, and his fair and delicate cheeks were filled with an imperceptible killing intent.

In her previous life, she had wondered why she had long felt that something was wrong with Jun Moyi, and why she could still do her best to help Jun Moyi.

Even though she already knew that Jun Moyi was plotting against her, she was still willing to do so, as if her heart was being held and controlled by someone else.

Back at the Prime Minister's Mansion, Gu Qingzhou locked himself in the room as soon as he entered, completely ignoring even Zhu'er's words.

After entering the room, Gu Qingzhou filled a basin of water and soaked the jade bracelet in the basin.

Gu Qingzhou sat on the chair, staring closely at the waves floating on the water for a long time.

Gu Qingzhou's thoughts were wandering very far, and even the sudden movement from the window was completely ignored by her.

Jun Mohan stood under the window, watching Gu Qingzhou staring at the basin, not noticing his presence at all. He was a little confused for a moment, so he couldn't help but step forward.

Inadvertently, he saw the jade bracelet soaked in the basin by Gu Qingzhou, and his eyes were filled with curiosity.

"Okay, why did Zhou'er soak this jade bracelet in the water?"

Suddenly hearing Jun Mohan's words, Gu Qingzhou was forced to come to her senses and instantly found that there was an extra person beside her, but she was shocked.

"When did His Highness come and I didn't even notice?"

Gu Qingzhou looked at Jun Mohan, stood up quickly, and spoke with a smile on his face.

Jun Mohan raised his eyebrows and pointed at the water basin with his eyes: "When I came in, I saw you staring at the water basin without any vigilance. This is not your style."

Gu Qingzhou has always been a very alert woman, and even the slightest disturbance cannot escape his ears. But today, even if he deliberately made some noise in front of Gu Qingzhou's window, Gu Qingzhou did not notice it.

"Oh... I was thinking about something just now, so I didn't notice it. Do you think there's anything wrong with this jade bracelet?"

Gu Qingzhou took out the jade bracelet from the basin, handed it to Jun Mohan in front of him, and asked seriously.

Jun Mohan looked at it, took the jade bracelet into his hand, and looked at it carefully.

"I don't see any problem. Is Zhou'er suspicious of something?"

Gu Qingzhou pursed his lips, then sighed, "This bracelet was given to me by Concubine Ji today."

Hearing this, Jun Mohan's face suddenly tightened, and then he looked at Gu Qingzhou intently.

"You went to see her?"

"Well, today the chief eunuch in his palace, Eunuch Kang, went to the Qinzheng Palace in person. I went to his palace. I had no way to refuse, so I had to agree to go."

Gu Qingzhou had no intention of hiding Jun Mohan's intentions. After all, they were going to get married in the future, and the two of them should be honest with each other.

"Did he make things difficult for you?"

"That's not true, but he suddenly got close to me. He probably wanted me to help Jun Moyi, but I didn't agree. But before leaving, he gave me this jade bracelet. Originally I had no suspicion, I just thought he wanted to please me, but today the emperor's words in the Qinzheng Hall suddenly woke me up, maybe this matter is not that simple."

Gu Qingzhou shook his head slowly, then looked at Jun Mohan in front of him, with a serious face, and told Jun Mohan exactly what happened in the palace today.

"Do you suspect that this table was poisoned by him?"

"I can't tell clearly now, but look at the color of this bracelet. Is it darker than a normal bracelet?"

Gu Qingzhou also looked confused, pointed to the jade bracelet on Jun Mohan's hand, and asked.

Hearing Gu Qingzhou's words, Jun Mohan also noticed this instantly: "It is indeed a bit darker, but the bracelet will become darker after being worn for a long time. This is normal, but it will not become so dark!"

Jun Mohan spoke meaningfully, no wonder he saw Gu Qingzhou soaking the bracelet in the water for so long when he entered the door just now! .
