The character who has just been murdered is Polonius. In this scene, Queen Gertrude is speaking to her son, Hamlet, about the recent death of Polonius. She is expressing her grief and telling Hamlet that he is now speaking like a good and true gentleman. She also assures him that her grief is genuine and that she feels it just as deeply as he does. The other characters mentioned in the options - Hamlet, Gertrude, and Claudius - are all characters in the play, but they are not the character who has just been murdered in this particular passage.
