Harigana nodded, though she was still a little worried. But since the other person had already eaten, it was too late for her to say anything.
However, it's good that she doesn't need to take medicine. Eight or nine out of ten ancient contraceptive methods used musk, so it's better for her not to take it.
"Xuan Ye, are you stupid?"
Harigana lay on Kangxi's body, overwhelmed with mixed feelings.
Are you moved?
Of course it would be touching. An emperor taking a contraceptive pill is no different from men in later generations undergoing sterilization.
Moreover, he was an emperor, and what he valued most was his offspring, unlike people in later generations who were content with having one child.
The royal family believed that having many children was a blessing, and the more offspring, the better.
But despite being touched, she knew she still couldn't give her heart away.
Even at this point, she still didn't win.
"Jiaojiao, I promised you that I would not let you suffer, and that I would give you everything I could. I will not break my promise."
There are some things I can't guarantee will be achievable immediately, but if they are achievable, I don't think you'll have any regrets.
Kangxi held the person lying on top of him. Although the posture was ambiguous, neither of them felt any passion. They simply listened quietly to each other's innermost thoughts.
The two of them were getting along very well, but Li Dequan had already stepped one foot out of the hall, making him look extremely comical.
Dulan covered her mouth and laughed as she looked at him.
"Eunuch Li, if Her Majesty says we don't need to go, then we don't need to go. Please come back soon."
He quickly walked to Li Dequan's side, whispered something, and then turned back to continue his duty.
"Why!"
Li Dequan sighed!
With a master like that, his brain is almost overwhelmed.
The Empress Dowager, who returned to Cining Palace in a huff, was furious and nearly fainted several times.
Just to avoid admitting defeat in front of Emperor Kangxi, she stubbornly refused to call the imperial physician.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. Nothing is more important than your health."
Su Ma La Gu felt very sorry for her and wanted to comfort her, but she didn't know what had happened.
"Heh! I'm a dying woman, what is there to be concerned about?"
Bumbutai's face was grim. At this moment, he didn't care whether there were guards present or not, and spoke without any restraint.
"I raised him with great difficulty, and not only did he oppose me for the sake of a woman, but now he doesn't even consult me about such a big matter as taking action against Suo'etu."
The Qing Dynasty had finally stabilized, and if the previous dynasty became unstable, the ancestral foundation of the Qing Dynasty could be in grave danger.
The war with Tsarist Russia is still ongoing. If the previous dynasty encounters problems, Xuan Ye will be attacked from both sides!
Although Sumalagu understood that the Empress Dowager's words were correct, the matters involved were definitely not as simple as they appeared on the surface.
The Emperor must have been very confident to do such a thing.
However, during this period, the Empress Dowager seemed to be possessed and refused to listen to any advice.
"Su Ma, go and find the Crown Prince and tell him that I miss him."
Bumbutai was aware of Suo'etu's crimes, but even if they were serious, now was not the time to take action against him.
Since the emperor won't listen to her, she should find someone the emperor respects to persuade him.
Sumalagu's face was somewhat unpleasant. She did not respond and leave, but instead knelt on the ground: "Empress Dowager, this servant has just received news that His Highness the Crown Prince has been placed under house arrest by the Emperor because of Tisuo'etu's plea for him."
Bumbutai was taken aback, clearly not expecting things to develop this way.
"Su Ma, that woman's methods are truly remarkable!"
Sumalagu dared not speak. Regardless of whether Harigana's methods were effective or not, the Emperor's current actions were beyond their ability to criticize.
She understood the Empress Dowager's feelings; she simply wanted to bring benefits to the Khorchin people.
Even so, it depends on whether the person in charge is willing to give it up!
Kangxi learned of everything that had happened the next day from his secret guards, and he still felt a pang of heartache when he thought of Yinreng.
Disappointment doesn't come overnight. From the day Harigana entered the palace, Yinreng's actions were truly difficult to evaluate.
Over the course of a year, Emperor Kangxi gave him countless opportunities and offered him numerous words of advice.
But the other person did not repent and even went so far as to try to kill his two unborn children.
It wasn't that he was poorly raised as the Emperor's father, but rather because he was the Crown Prince, the heir apparent, and the future monarch of the Qing Dynasty.
There are many things he needs to figure out on his own, rather than just believing what others say.
Anyone who wants to emulate his ascension to the throne at the age of eight—regardless of whether he's capable of it—can be directly categorized as such.
However, Emperor Kangxi still cherished the bond he had formed with his son since childhood and tried to subtly persuade him to change his mind, but to no avail.
"Baocheng, I have a clear conscience regarding you!" After saying that, he burned the letter presented by the guard to ashes.
The next day, as soon as Kangxi got up, Harigana woke up and repeatedly told him to come back first so that Zhao Rongxi could take his pulse, and then go to the Imperial Study after having breakfast.
"Jiaojiao, I promise I'll be back soon. You should go to sleep. It's still early, and it's not a day for paying respects. Why are you up so early?"
Although Kangxi was deeply moved, he felt a pang of heartache seeing the woman who was still thinking of him even in her dazed state.
From now on, he must tell her in advance what he's doing. She probably didn't get a good night's rest because she was thinking about all this.
He helped cover her with the blanket and waited until she fell asleep before turning around and leaving.
During the morning court session, all the officials remained quiet, and no one submitted a memorial.
Emperor Kangxi was not actually surprised by this situation.
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Seeing that the time was almost up and no one had submitted a memorial, Nalan Mingzhu knelt down at the front.
They held a thick letter in their hands, and everyone understood what was going on.
They all know about what happened to Suo'etu yesterday, which is why it's so quiet today.
Some of the princelings considered pleading for Suo'etu, but the emperor's behavior over the past year had become unpredictable, and they dared not act rashly.
They discussed it privately, planning to go to the Imperial Study after the morning court session to see if they could persuade the Emperor on the grounds of the Crown Prince.
Just when the morning court session was about to end, Nalan Mingzhu suddenly spoke up.
"Mingzhu, what brings you here?"
Kangxi's voice was calm, but it carried a different meaning in the hearts of the officials.
"Your Majesty, I have thoroughly investigated and uncovered all of Songgotu's crimes."
This is Songgotu's confession. We implore Your Majesty to issue an edict to execute Songgotu and restore peace to the people.
As soon as Nalan Mingzhu finished speaking, some of Suo'etu's henchmen lost their footing and fell to the ground.
Emperor Kangxi narrowed his eyes slightly but remained silent, signaling Li Dequan to go and retrieve Nalan Mingzhu's confession.
Although I had already seen it before, reading it again still made me angry.
