After Harigana finished speaking, he hugged Kangxi tightly, his hands still clutching the belt of his dragon robe, like an uneasy rabbit.
"Jiaojiao, are you silly?"
After Kangxi finished speaking, he picked the person up and strode back towards Qingxi Palace.
Harigana kicked his legs, trying to get down: "Xuan Ye, you have an injury on your back, put me down quickly."
"Jiaojiao, I'm fine, don't move."
Although Li Dequan didn't know what had happened, he saw the two of them getting all lovey-dovey again, so he quietly took a few steps back and pulled Du Lan to his side to keep her from following too closely.
"Eunuch Li, why are you pulling me?"
Dulan asked Li Dequan in a low voice, somewhat puzzled.
"You silly girl, when the Emperor is around, can you please not stand so close?"
I really don't know if she's fearless or just doesn't learn her lesson, but whenever she encounters that living ancestor, she loses all composure.
Now that she's in the palace, with the Emperor and Imperial Concubine surrounded by secret guards, what is she worried about?
Dulan stuck out her tongue, didn't ask any more questions, and slowly followed Li Dequan back.
Upon returning to Qingxi Palace, Harigana immediately instructed Dulan to bring over ice and ointment to reduce swelling.
"Xuan Ye, take off your clothes quickly, they must be swollen from being out for so long."
I'm not short-legged, although not as long as yours, I can still keep up with your pace.
You're injured but you still insisted on holding me. How can you be so careless about your health?
Harigana chattered on as he helped Kangxi take off his dragon robe. Only after Dulan put down his things and left did he remove his undergarment.
The wound on my back was caused by hitting me with a jade ruyi, and it's quite swollen now.
Looking at her swollen back, one can imagine how angry Bumbutai was and how much force she used to smash the jade ruyi at her.
If Emperor Kangxi hadn't been there, even if she had reacted and used her hand to block it, her hand would have been unable to move for at least seven or eight days.
"Xuan Ye, does it hurt?"
Harigana applied ice to his wound for a while, then wiped it clean with a clean cloth before carefully applying the medicine.
During this time, he also blew on it gently.
"It doesn't hurt, Jiaojiao. I'm a man, this little injury is really nothing."
I was wounded much more severely when I went to the battlefield before, and I'm perfectly fine now!
Don't worry, don't fret!
Suddenly, Harigana slapped him on the shoulder.
"Xuan Ye, you can't keep this kind of mentality and neglect your health anymore, understand?"
Kangxi chuckled and immediately nodded in agreement: "Alright, we'll listen to Jiaojiao."
Watching her put down the ointment and carefully help him put on his undergarments, he seemed like a disobedient child in Harigana's eyes, someone who was always causing trouble.
In Cining Palace, after everyone had left, the Empress Dowager sat by the bedside of the Grand Empress Dowager, watching her without saying a word.
Bumbutai couldn't help herself and opened her eyes to look at her, her voice a little hoarse: "Qiqige, do you also think I'm wrong?"
The Empress Dowager did not answer directly. At this moment, the Grand Empress Dowager was probably still stuck in her own thoughts, and no matter who said what, she would feel that they were going against her.
"Empress Huang's mother"
The Empress Dowager considered it for a moment and said, "Many things are not as we wish them to be. Please try to be more open-minded."
The Empress Dowager did not hear what he wanted to hear, so he immediately closed his eyes and spoke to the Empress Dowager again.
“Empress Mother, please have Sumalagu come and serve you. Qiqige will go back first.”
The Empress Dowager was unwilling to keep trying to win her favor. Once or twice was fine, but it had been over a year, and she hadn't received any benefit. She still hadn't learned her lesson.
Does the title of Empress Dowager really carry much power?
Are those years of glory just gone forever?
Sumalagu watched the Empress Dowager leave and wanted to call out to stop her, but in the end, she didn't say anything.
After the Empress Dowager left, Bumbutai opened her eyes and stared blankly at Liusu by the bedside, lost in thought.
Meanwhile, Lady Tongjia was also going mad.
Inside Chengqian Palace, a series of smashing and breaking sounds rang out, accompanied by screams from palace maids and eunuchs. The noise was so loud that even Wuya Shi in Yonghe Palace could hear it.
Before long, the news reached Harigana.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong?"
After Dulan finished reporting, he looked at the person who stood up and walked out, and felt a little worried.
Harigana was naturally going to watch the spectacle; if she didn't kick someone when they were down now, she'd regret it terribly later.
According to Kangxi, it wasn't that he didn't want to move it, but rather that he wanted to keep it for the time being because it would be useful.
Therefore, her life could be taken away by Kangxi at any time, so of course she had to go see the play now that she had such a good opportunity.
After all, she is an Imperial Noble Consort, and she is currently in charge of managing the affairs of the harem.
Emperor Kangxi hated beating and scolding servants the most, so she had to stop him!
"Go and take a look! This commotion is bad for the image. What will others think of me? What will they think of the Emperor?"
Harigana said nice things, but the upturned corners of her mouth showed that she was very happy.
Fortunately, Emperor Kangxi went to the Imperial Study at that moment, otherwise she might not have been able to watch the play.
Dulan immediately understood her meaning and enthusiastically called Chasu to accompany her to protect the Empress. Then, the three of them, along with a few eunuchs, swaggered to Chengqian Palace.
"Her Imperial Noble Consort has arrived!"
Tongjia looked at Xi'er, who was kneeling on the ground and on the verge of death, and a bloodthirsty glint flashed in her eyes, but it was gone in an instant and no one noticed.
Although she heard the eunuch's report, she remained seated firmly in her high position, showing no intention of going down to pay her respects.
Now she's given up all hope. Since the emperor can't kill her anyway, what can she do if she doesn't care about anything?
"How dare you, Lady Tongjia, not even bow before the Imperial Noble Consort?"
Dulan looked at Tongjia with resentment.
She seemed very honest for over a year, but in reality, she did a lot of dirty tricks behind the scenes.
Seeing her now, of course I had to seize the opportunity.
"Imperial Noble Consort? What a display of power!"
"You're nothing but her dog; you're not qualified to question me."
Harigana glanced at Tongjia Shi, but decided not to hold it against her for the time being.
The person lying on the ground must be her personal maid. This person must know a lot, so she can't die yet.
"Someone, take this palace maid to the Imperial Hospital for a checkup."
The Emperor was most averse to the use of torture by those in the inner palace; he absolutely could not allow anyone to lose their life.
As soon as he finished speaking, the young eunuch that Harigana had brought came in to help Xi'er out.
"Let go! This is my personal maid. No one dares to touch her."
