She rolled her eyes at him, then followed him out the door, pouting.

I was planning to go see the two children and ask Granny Hu and the others to watch over them, but I was told that they weren't even in the courtyard.

"What did you say?"

Harigana looked at Kangxi in disbelief, not quite understanding what he meant.

“I said I had Li Dequan send Bao Bao and Bei Bei to the Empress Dowager, and I also sent the Imperial Guards to guard them, and added ten more secret guards to ensure there would be no problems.”

Kangxi was planning to stay away for two days this time. If he remembered correctly, her wedding day would be in three days.

He wanted to take advantage of these two days to pamper her, otherwise he would have to wait another seven or eight days to be close to her.

Harigana then understood why he had been so certain that the Empress Dowager would not return.

"Xuan Ye, you are truly wonderful!"

Gritting her teeth, she released her grip on his arm and turned to go to the Empress Dowager, only to be swept up by Kangxi in his arms: "Jiaojiao, the servants are watching!"

Harigana, who had tried to struggle and kick, immediately lost his will to fight.

"Hmph! Treacherous!"

Isn't that treacherous?

Ever since the two children grew a little older and were able to chat with people, the Empress Dowager would visit them twice a day.

Now that such a rare child has been sent to her, it would be strange if she wanted to leave.

It's a shame she was just thinking about whether to sacrifice her looks to get Kangxi to compromise, but in the end she did sacrifice her looks and ended up performing all by herself.

"Jiaojiao, you didn't ask me, did you?"
