"Please believe me, Your Majesty, I am truly innocent."
Gu Jiangli didn't say anything, but his face was full of helplessness.
She knew that in times like these, nothing was more useful than silence.
The emperor was already quite annoyed, and hearing Gu Jiangru cry so sadly, he felt no annoyance at all, only weariness.
He didn't even glance at Gu Jiangru on the ground, and said coldly:
"Alright, I know everything. Since Consort Gu is not used to living in Lanfang Palace, let her stay in Guangming Palace for the time being."
Upon hearing this, Gu Jiangru even forgot to cry.
Guangming Hall was the emperor's personal residence. If the emperor did not choose a concubine or visit any of his concubines, he would rest in Guangming Hall.

"Yes, Your Majesty."
"Come over today," the emperor added coldly.
Gu Jiangli replied respectfully, "Yes, Your Majesty."
He turned and left without giving Gu Jiangru another glance.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, the palace servants around them all wisely left quietly.
Gu Jiangli stood beside Gu Jiangru and used his voice to bring Gu Jiangru back to her senses.
"Do you know why His Majesty is so angry? He won't even look at you."
