"Third brother, you too, watch your step, you're the most silly one."

Sun Bu'er looked at Yinqi, who was sitting to the side watching the show, and spoke with a solemn tone.

"Don't worry, Second Brother, I will."

Sunbul nodded, preparing to take the two men on a winter hunt.

As for Bayalig and Xinxin, as an older brother, he cannot be too close to them, and he also cannot say these things to his younger sister.

Besides, with Seneja around, they are absolutely safe.

Everyone in the world knows that Emperor Kangxi favored Bayalige and Chelimuge; who would dare to use such underhanded methods on them?

Not to mention the emperor and empress far away in the capital, Baoli alone could tear that person to pieces.

The words spoken by the children soon reached Emperor Kangxi in the capital.

“Jiaojiao, this Sun Bu'er is a sensible person. If it weren't for the fact that he was going to inherit the position of leader, I would have liked to let him enter the court as an official.”

He must be an upright, incorruptible, and dedicated official.

He placed the letter presented by the guard into Harigana's hands: "What a pity."

Harigana took the letter and glanced at it. He was surprised that Sunbul had only stayed in the capital for a few years, yet he had such a profound influence on him.

“Xuan Ye, there are many good officials. With so many people in the Qing Dynasty, as long as the selection process is fair, there will definitely be many people who can serve you.”

She put down the letter, picked up a small bamboo basket, and fiddled with the seedlings she had suddenly decided to plant.

I thought it wouldn't grow back, but it actually came to life.

She just didn't know what was inside; she casually tossed a handful of seeds in.

Kangxi looked at Harigana thoughtfully, and after a moment of silence, he stood up: "Jiaojiao, come with me."

His darling is right; as long as things are done fairly, there's no need to worry about anyone.

With the imperial examinations about to begin, he wanted to see if any of those people were secretly stirring up trouble.

"Huh? Now?"

Emperor Kangxi nodded. These past few days, the Hanlin Academy had been embroiled in heated arguments over the imperial examinations.

"Oh, I'm changing my clothes."

Harigana didn't know what he was going to do, but seeing his solemn expression, he didn't ask any more questions.

As Kangxi would occasionally take her out of the palace, not only she got used to it, but the court officials and the common people also got used to it.

She even had the illusion that the court officials really enjoyed her going to the Imperial Study, and that they always saw her smiling so brightly when they bumped into her.

"I'll help you."

As long as Emperor Kangxi was by her side, Harigana hardly had to do anything herself. In recent years, even washing her face was done by Emperor Kangxi.

She protested, and then he would torment her severely that night, leaving her so exhausted the next day that she couldn't even lift a finger.

Kangxi looked at her triumphantly, and helped her wash up under her gritted teeth gaze.

Over time, I just went along with it.

"Xuan Ye, will you be back tonight? Should we send someone to inform Mother?"

Since returning from the grasslands, the Empress Dowager has rarely left the palace. In addition, with several of her children away recently, she has hardly even left the Ning Shou Palace.

"Okay, I'll have Little Li go there in a bit."

A quarter of an hour later, a low-key carriage departed from the palace gate.

After Emperor Kangxi dismissed most of the palace women, Harigana ordered the Imperial Household Department to control the number of palace maids and eunuchs, and allowed those who reached a certain age or wanted to leave the palace to do so.

An empty palace only needs one or two maids to sweep and a eunuch to guard the gate.

As for the palaces where the concubines lived, they were still served according to the previous standards.

Therefore, the palace's expenses have been reduced significantly in recent years.

In addition, those who remained were either young or had entered through Sander's connections, so they were all very clean.

They are all tight-lipped and efficient at their work.

Therefore, even if some trivial matter occurred on the official road in front of the Qianqing Palace and Qingxi Palace, the people in the inner palace would not know about it.

Not to mention major events like the Emperor taking the Empress out of the palace.

In short, the current imperial harem is completely blind and deaf.

Harigana was very satisfied with this.

Because of his good management, Sander was even rewarded with a hundred taels of silver.

"Jiaojiao, are you cold?"

Kangxi took the hand of the person in his arms, put it to his mouth, and blew on it.

"I'm not that delicate."

Harigana chuckled, but did not stop him.

Before long, the carriage stopped in front of a restaurant.

In early spring, the midday sun was still quite warm, and after getting off the carriage and putting on a cloak, I didn't feel cold at all.

"This way, sir and madam!"

The waiter, seeing the two people's attire, didn't ask any questions and led them directly to a private room on the second floor.

The environment is indeed unique, and the location is excellent.

"Madam, this restaurant opened after the New Year."

Seeing Harigana's serious scrutiny, Li Dequan quickly explained in a low voice.

"Yes, our restaurant has only been open for a few days."

The waiter seemed very outgoing and spoke without any hesitation.

"It looks really good; your employer has put a lot of effort into it."

Harigana did not hold back his praise.

Hearing her words, the waiter's small eyes narrowed into slits with a smile: "Yes, our boss is very dedicated. This is the tenth branch our boss has opened."

Harigana was somewhat surprised; ten restaurants was no small matter.

She glanced at Li Dequan, who immediately understood her thoughts and quietly went out to investigate.

"Ten companies? That's really impressive. Where were the others before?"

After Li Dequan left, Harigana looked at the waiter with a puzzled expression: "Are you from the capital?"
