"Xuan Ye".

Harigana's eyes lit up, and he looked at him with a grin: "How about I call you old man when no one's around?"

"You should get used to it in advance, so you won't find yourself uncomfortable when you're really old."

Emperor Kangxi, who had been in a good mood, froze upon hearing this, and the corners of his lips that had been turned up began to droop.

"Jiaojiao, I don't like it! It doesn't sound good! I refuse!"

He's only thirty-one years old, why call him an old man?

"Xuan Ye, I think it sounds nice, I like it."

Harigana deliberately teased Kangxi, his eyes full of mockery.

"No way, if you dare call me old man, I'll call you old woman."

Kangxi was naturally aware of her teasing, and after speaking, he kept observing her expression, and sure enough, he saw it stiffen.

"You dare!"

Harigana glared at Kangxi through gritted teeth, then reached out and grabbed his braid: "Try calling him again?"

Li Dequan brought Dulan and Xiao Lizi in to wash up and prepare food. By sheer coincidence, he saw her grabbing the Emperor's braid and threatening him.

In an instant, the three of them were caught between a rock and a hard place, neither able to move forward nor backward. They lowered their heads and acted like quails, not daring to make a single move.

"Jiaojiao".

Helpless, Kangxi pulled her into his arms and turned his head, saying, "Put your things down and you can leave."

Harigana remained silent and obediently sat in his arms.

It's okay for two people to play around, but it would be embarrassing if others saw it.

"Yes! Your servant obeys."

Li Dequan and the others put their things down and quickly retreated.

Once outside, the three had different thoughts, especially Dulan, whose eyes sparkled.
