"Shut up!"
After Consort Yi finished speaking, she was about to go up and cover Yinqi's mouth, but was stopped by the Empress Dowager's men.
To say that Consort Yi had always had a fiery temper, she has become even more aggressive due to her confinement for the past six months.
Coupled with the interaction between Yinqi and Harigana at the palace banquet, and the intimate way he was with Baoliri, he was somewhat out of control.
"Your Majesty, the Fifth Prince is still young and should not be frightened."
The wet nurse stepped forward and hugged Yinqi, preventing Consort Yi from getting any closer.
At this moment, Consort Yi, who had lost control, came to her senses. Although she still disliked the wet nurse, she could only grit her teeth and accept it.
"Little Wu, come to your mother!"
You might think you're being gentle, but how can a frightened child calm down just because of a few words?
"Waaah, I want to go back! I want to find Grandma Empress!"
The wet nurse couldn't soothe him, and Yinqi struggled fiercely. With a heavy heart, she said, "Your Highness, this servant will take the Fifth Prince back to Ning Shou Palace first. This servant will take his leave."
Yinqi felt very wronged. He had come here happily, but he didn't expect to be beaten.
Before, when the Empress Dowager spoke to him, she never said anything bad about me. But now that the Empress Dowager is mean, she not only speaks ill of me but even hits me. He doesn't like the Empress Dowager anymore.
Harigana was unaware that Consort Yi had given her a fine son, and was currently negotiating with Emperor Kangxi.
"No, Xuan Ye, that's what you say, but can't you exercise restraint?"
After the palace banquet ended, Harigana felt completely dizzy.
When the ladies-in-waiting offered her wine, she would always take a symbolic sip.
Who would have thought that the alcohol was so potent? She only took a small sip, and she still got drunk.
Just when I finally fell asleep, Kangxi snuggled up to me, trying to keep me awake.
"Jiaojiao, now that you're the empress, do you no longer want me, the emperor?"
"You said you wouldn't care about me anymore, but now that you're empress, you've turned your back on me."
Harigana was completely bewildered by Kangxi's words; he never expected him to be so shameless.
"Xuan Ye, good Xuan Ye, I beg you, I'm feeling dizzy right now, let me get some sleep."
She hugged his neck affectionately, even though it was getting late, there was still some time before bedtime.
Has Emperor Kangxi been bored lately? Why does he keep bothering her?
What are those envoys and ministers doing? Can't they find something for Emperor Kangxi to do?
"Jiaojiao, you go to sleep, I'll do mine!"
In the end, Kangxi succeeded, and along the way, he even held the dizzy person in front of the dressing table and made a fuss for a long time.
The next day, when Harigana looked at the lipstick that was mostly gone, she finally understood why she felt her waist was in danger the day before.
That scoundrel, he's getting more and more outrageous with his advances.
"Wait, Princess, am I mistaken? There were definitely plenty yesterday!"
After things were settled yesterday, Kangxi ordered people to bring in water and carefully cleaned the person in his arms.
Therefore, apart from the parties involved, no one knows exactly what happened.
Thinking about how he used this to draw all over her body yesterday, her face flushed instantly.
"Dulan, go to the Imperial Household Department and get some more. I think the color of this is a bit off."
Du Lan is lying through her teeth; no one else would believe her excuse.
"Alright! I'll go right away."
Dulan believed it without the slightest doubt.
Harigana breathed a sigh of relief. If she had continued to ask, he really wouldn't have known how to explain himself.
"Princess!"
He leaned close to her ear and whispered what had happened at Yikun Palace, then straightened up and began to do her hair and makeup.
Harigana's eyes darted around, but he ultimately decided not to get involved.
She had told Emperor Kangxi before that she would not interfere in matters concerning her children. Although it was Consort Yi who caused this, she would not get involved in the princes involved.
Besides, she has other matters to attend to here, and if she says the wrong thing, she could easily be smeared with dirty water.
"Don't worry about it!"
Emperor Kangxi and the Empress Dowager will handle it; she can simply step in and say a few words to Emperor Kangxi at that time.
As expected, Consort Yi was confined to her quarters again.
The gates of Yikun Palace were closed again, this time for a year.
Consort Yi is going crazy right now.
She finally managed to get out early, and after being given a demerit, she saw that vile woman become empress, respectfully kowtowed, and was then confined to her quarters again.
She wanted to cultivate a relationship with Yinqi, and she wanted to find an opportunity to take revenge, hoping to snatch the child back.
As a result, she was only free for twelve hours before being locked up again.
"Xuan Ye, isn't this a bit inappropriate?"
Harigana suppressed a laugh as she looked at Kangxi, her shoulders trembling slightly, revealing just how much she was struggling to hold it in.
"Laugh if you want to, no one will say anything."
Kangxi sighed helplessly. Seeing her carefree attitude, he turned his gaze and tapped the tip of her nose with the pen in his hand.
He hadn't actually intended to do this, but the Empress Dowager was furious.
It is said that when Xiao Wu returned, he was out of breath and even almost fainted. The imperial physician prescribed several days' worth of herbal medicine.
The people Li Dequan arranged vividly and clearly recounted the scene of Consort Yi's re-conferment as empress in the palace. Kangxi had been thinking about how to keep her in line, and now that Consort Yi was causing trouble, he could just deal with her directly.
"I just feel sorry for Xiao Wu, she's such a well-behaved child!"
She pouted and tugged at his collar: "Let's go see him later. Mother is unreliable, but Father needs to be reliable. What's the point of having only Grandmother with him?"
Harigana really didn't have any other intentions. Yinqi's temperament seemed pretty good for the time being, and he was also Baoli Ri's apprentice. She had to protect him both morally and logically.
"Okay! Jiaojiao, come with me to see Xiao Wu."
Kangxi did not speak ill of her, knowing that Harigana was just a stubborn person with a soft heart.
Even if it were Yinreng instead of Xiao Wu today, she would still advise him in the same way.
She definitely wouldn't go to Yinreng's place, but since Xiao Wu was closer to her, she naturally worried more about him.
"Okay!"
In Ning Shou Palace, the Empress Dowager's face was unusually grim.
She had never given her child any herbal medicine since he was a child, but unexpectedly, his own mother scared him so much that he ended up having to take bitter herbal medicine.
"Xiao Wu, are you still feeling unwell?"
Looking at the dazed man, the Empress Dowager lovingly stroked his little face: "Tell Grandma, is there anything else that's bothering you?"
"Grandma, I'm not feeling unwell, I'm just so sleepy. I want to sleep."
The little hand gripped the Empress Dowager's index finger tightly, looking pitiful and heartbreaking.
"Little Wu, go to sleep, Grandma is here!"
Yinqi opened his mouth, unsure of what he wanted to say, but ultimately didn't ask.
Seeing his hesitant expression, the Empress Dowager assumed he was in pain and was about to ask him a question when she heard Harigana's voice.
"Mother, how is Xiao Wu?"
The sound was very soft, probably because they didn't want to wake Yinqi.
"Empress Huang's mother!"
Xiao Wu's eyes were just like hers; she turned her head and looked at Harigana and Kangxi behind her with bright eyes.
