Chapter 42 Quietly Exerting Effort



"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Harigana stood up with Kangxi's help, and the latter immediately felt her dependence. However, he did not think that the girl was in love with him, but understood that she would definitely not be comfortable today.

"After you finish your meal, rest for a while. I have some things to take care of. I'll come and keep you company tonight!"

Kangxi carefully explained what he was going to do later. Harigana hesitated for a moment, but for the sake of Senjiya, she asked the question.

"Your Majesty! What will you do with me, Egeqi?"

Kangxi wasn't unaware of Harigana's conflicted expression, but he felt that since the two were already so close, he hoped that Harigana would bring up the matter herself rather than keeping it to herself.

So when I hear Harigana asking about Haburi, I feel quite gratified; at least she's willing to discuss things with him now.

"How do you want to handle this?"

Harigana glanced at Kangxi, thought for a moment, and finally shook her head: "Your Majesty, I... I didn't know!"

Kangxi was delighted to hear the words "your subject" and wanted to test Harigana's intentions, but all of that disappeared because of those two words.

Although he was pleased that Harigana had mentioned Haburi to him first, as an emperor, even though he liked it, he couldn't be completely unguarded.

So I was hoping to hear if Harigana would plead for Haburi. If he did, he would satisfy Harigana, but my fondness for Harigana might fade a bit in the future.

The woman he likes can be gentle, but she cannot be ignorant!

So Harigana's performance just now satisfied him. He said he didn't know if he didn't know, which was very honest. He didn't try to be clever or try to guess what he was thinking.

"Don't you have any ideas at all? For example, letting your Egeqi go?"

Harigana thought to herself, she didn't want to plead for mercy. In this feudal dynasty, if someone could do something like this without regard for their parents' lives, who knew what else they might do in the future that would make the whole family suffer.

However, she just didn't want to plead for Habril, but she still had to protect Seingia and the others; this kind of collateral liability can sometimes be really troublesome.

"have!"

When Kangxi heard Harigana say that word, a slight chill ran through him, but he showed no sign of it on his face.

"Oh? Tell me about it!"

Harigana felt that something was wrong with Kangxi, but she couldn't figure out why for the time being.

"Your Majesty! As for Egeqi, I don't know how you intend to handle this matter, but my mother and Eqige really don't know anything about it. I beg Your Majesty to consider my feelings and not hold my mother and Eqige responsible."

Although my pride is worthless, but…

Seeing the slight change in Kangxi's expression, Harigana could only plead in a low voice, but before he could finish saying "but," Kangxi pulled him into his arms.

"Jiaojiao!"

While Kangxi and Harigana were talking, Hairi had already led Dulan away. So, although Harigana was still a little embarrassed, he kept telling himself to get used to it.

"emperor!"

Harigana didn't know if Kangxi would agree. If Kangxi wanted to make a big deal out of this, it would be a huge crime that would damage the emperor's health!

So she was actually very nervous, otherwise she wouldn't have gotten out of bed and come here when her legs were hurting so badly.

"Jiaojiao! Your mother was locked up by Li Dequan yesterday!"

Looking at Harigana's expression, Kangxi realized that she really didn't have any intention of pleading for Habril, and he became even more satisfied.

His woman should be like this: bold in love and hate, not actively provoking others, but also ruthless towards her opponents.

"Your Majesty! What about my mother and the others?"

Harigana nervously gripped Kangxi's clothes, staring intently into Kangxi's eyes.

Kangxi was displeased to see how much Harigana valued the couple, but then he thought that the girl was already his, and he would make sure that she would only have eyes for him and not think about anyone else.

The thought that they would be setting off tomorrow, and that Harigana would be the only person he could rely on from then on, eased Kangxi's displeasure somewhat.

"For your sake, I can let your mother and mother go, but Habril must be punished! Do you have any objections to my handling of this matter?"

Harigana's eyes lit up, and she quickly shook her head, "Your Majesty, I will follow Your Majesty's arrangements!"

Harigana didn't feel she had done anything wrong by not pleading for Haburi; in her past life, she had been so morally blackmailed that she almost suffocated.

So after arriving here, she set a rule for herself: she refused to be morally coerced unless someone had done her a favor.

Moreover, even those who have shown kindness cannot help indefinitely. Although she could not help much, she still knew about the story of the farmer and the snake. Therefore, the fact that Kangxi spared Saenjiya and Baoliri can be considered as repaying their kindness!

It wasn't that Harigana wanted to sever ties with them because of this incident, but rather that he felt that since he had taken over the body of someone else's daughter, he had to fulfill his filial duties on her behalf.

"Jiaojiao! You are my Consort Chen, there's no need for this with me! Have your meal first, take your medicine and rest well, you were exhausted yesterday! Tonight I, um..."

Kangxi's mouth was covered; it was Harigana who did it!

"Your Majesty, let's have our meal! You also have official business to attend to, don't you?"

Harigana's cheeks were flushed. How could she possibly bring up what happened last night? Whether she was tired or not, she should just keep it to herself!

Kangxi felt that the way the two of them got along was very relaxed and comfortable, and it would be great if they could continue living like this.

"Um!"

Kangxi silently agreed, and Harigana immediately let go of his hand, wanting to sit back on his stool. However, he almost fell to the ground as soon as he stood up!

"Jiaojiao, be careful!"

With a swift movement, Kangxi scooped Harigana up and placed her on the man's lap once more, but this time the position was rather awkward, almost making her cry.

"Jiaojiao! You're so clumsy, what if you fall and hurt yourself?" Kangxi scolded her, but he was secretly pleased.

He saw it clearly: when Harigana came out, she was supported by her maid, and she almost fell down because her legs were weak when she stood up!

So everything proves that he was incredibly brave last night!
