Dulan, seeing Harigana's pale face, nervously jogged over to her side.

Knowing there were hidden guards, she wanted to ask but was afraid of being discovered as odd, so she could only stand aside and keep them company.

Harigana truly never expected the Empress Dowager to be so ruthless, even trying to manipulate a child.

Mount Wutai is a sacred Buddhist site.

If news were to come from the other side that the two children were cursed or that they were incompatible with the emperor, even if Kangxi didn't care, the court officials and the people of the country would not agree to let them be raised by his side.

Therefore, what she wanted to sow discord between the people and the emperor, rather than her relationship with Kangxi.

Whenever it comes to children, she will do her best to protect them. Kangxi will be tempted by the pressure from the previous dynasty, and over time, their relationship will be worn down and their trust will collapse.

Then she and her child would lose Kangxi's protection, and in the end, wouldn't she be able to do whatever she wanted?

Bumbutai, what a cruel heart you have!

Fortunately, she enjoyed reading all kinds of novels and unofficial histories; otherwise, she wouldn't have known the reason until her death.

Perhaps, they won't even know how they died.

"Dulan, let's go for a walk!"

Now that we've thought of it, we should naturally take action in advance.

However, this hand is not hers, and she doesn't have the ability or the manpower for it.

Then let's find someone capable, like—Emperor Kangxi!

However, there needs to be a messenger, and one who will not arouse Kangxi's suspicion.

"Hey!" He immediately took her hand.

The two seemed to be just strolling around casually, but they deliberately chose to walk through open spaces.

Unlike other incidents, if Wei Qi were to hear about this, he would certainly report it to Emperor Kangxi.

She was a naive person in front of Emperor Kangxi. If she had thought of something that even Emperor Kangxi hadn't figured out, wouldn't her image have collapsed?

Not far from the camp, with no cover in the surroundings, the two appeared to be walking towards the woods, but in reality, they had already finished explaining everything they needed to do.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, this servant can do it!"

Harigana squeezed Dulan's hand: "Little Dulan, thank you!"

Dulan smiled and said, "Princess, you saved my life. If anyone should thank you, it's me who should thank you."

Besides, I do have a good relationship with Li Dequan. You don't need to overthink it; he just treats me like a younger sister.

Since you've chosen to leave, don't hesitate. I will always be with you.

Moreover, Li Dequan had already been dragged into this mess by the servants; he had no choice but to help, whether he wanted to or not.

As he spoke, his face was full of smugness.

Harigana felt a pang of sadness; she was clearly just a teenage girl!

When I rescued her, she was covered in blood, and just looking at her made me tremble.

Later, seeing that she was unwell, he said he would protect her, and then he began to practice kung fu with the guards, enduring a lot of hardship.

When she first arrived here, Dulan was the only person she could trust, and to this day, Dulan has never let her down.

He reached out and hugged her arm, just like on the grassland: "Good Dulan, I really want to thank you."

If there is an afterlife, I hope that Dulan will be born into a good family and live a happy and peaceful life. Harigana prayed silently in his heart.

Dulan didn't say anything more. She understood in her heart that although they were mistress and servant, her princess had never treated her like a slave.

If there is an afterlife, she hopes that the princess can be reborn into an ordinary family and no longer suffer such hardships.

She would have to serve the princess as her maid for the rest of her life.

When Wei Qi caught up, he saw Harigana hugging Dulan's arm and smiling, the two of them very close together.

I hesitated for a moment and didn't write these things down in my notebook.

Dulan is his sugar daddy; he even needs her to handle the book sales.

Just imagine, once the book is written and the Imperial Noble Consort has read it, the people will go crazy fighting over it!

It's a lot of hard-earned money; it's only right that he secretly helps cover things up.

"This servant greets Your Majesty!"

Just as Harigana and Dulan were about to turn back, they saw Li Dequan rushing over.

"Get up, what's wrong?"

Li Dequan sighed inwardly. What else could he do? The foolish emperor was just looking for a wife.

He rushed back to find his ancestor as soon as he finished reviewing the memorial, only to find that the ancestor was not there. So he sent him out to look for him.

"Your Majesty, the Emperor has finished his business and is waiting for you in the Imperial Tent!"

Harigana looked utterly exasperated; only a quarter of an hour had passed since he came out.

Let's go!

He deliberately let go of Dulan's hand and strode aggressively toward the imperial tent.

Li Dequan and Du Lan followed closely behind, but she eventually switched to jogging, leaving the two of them behind.

Wei Qi naturally followed Harigana, leaving Li Dequan and Dulan at the very back.

Li Dequan wanted to catch up quickly, but Du Lan tugged at his arm.

I turned around to ask what was wrong, and heard her hurriedly say a few words.

Suppressing their shock, they hummed in agreement, and then the two used their martial arts skills to chase after them.

"Your Majesty, please slow down!"

As they entered the camp, Dulan took Harigana's hand and gently squeezed it, instantly putting Harigana's mind at ease.

I thought I would have to wait for another opportunity, but I didn't expect the opportunity to come so quickly.

Based on Dulan's understanding of her, she would surely understand why she had run back just now, and now that she had received a signal, she was finally relieved.

"Okay, okay! I'll do as you say!"

The two of them were having a good time, but Li Dequan, standing to the side, was filled with bitterness.

We definitely need to help, but how to help is the big question.

It could subtly alert the emperor without implicating anyone.

Looking at the person in front of me, laughing and talking to the living ancestor, I sighed helplessly.

See, why did he ever provoke her in the first place? Now look what's happened, he's trapped and can't get out!

As if sensing someone was speaking ill of her, Dulan turned her head and met Li Dequan's gaze. The latter smiled subconsciously, then shuddered.

I felt even more bitter. I didn't even dare to think about it. It was so frustrating!

He was the emperor's personal eunuch, the head of all the eunuchs in the palace.

As a result, he was completely subdued by a young, blonde girl.

Life is really tough!

As Harigana entered the hall, he saw Emperor Kangxi sitting in a chair with a dark expression.

Although his face was dark, his eyes were full of grievance.

"Why so fast today?"

When Kangxi heard what she said, he felt even more aggrieved.

He reviewed the memorials at a glance, finishing in less than an hour what would normally take two hours.

I was thinking of taking her out for a walk, but she ended up taking that damned Dulan with her.

"come over!"

Even if he felt wronged, he couldn't say it.

I got angry a few days ago because of Yinreng. I finally managed to appease him, but what if I anger him again?

Harigana rolled her eyes at him, and although she was walking towards him, she didn't stop talking: "The way you look, doesn't it look like you're beckoning to a kitten or puppy!"
