Kangxi choked: "Jiaojiao, do you still want to hear it?"
We can't continue this topic; he has no advantage whatsoever.
Although they are doing well now, he did force them in the beginning, and he couldn't afford to be scolded.
"Listen! Of course you should listen!"
Harigana grabbed his collar, adjusted his posture, and waited for him to speak.
"Jiaojiao, Tong Guowei submitted his resignation at the morning court session this day, and his bodyguards said that he had destroyed all the letters and dismissed all the people on the estate."
I summoned him to the Imperial Study and we talked for a long time. Unexpectedly, he handed over all the evidence of his crimes, only asking that the reputation of the Tongjia clan not be damaged. He chose to exchange his own life for the peace of the Tongjia clan.
Jiaojiao, I…
Kangxi didn't know how to say it. That person was his mother's relative. The Tongjia clan suffered losses. Would his mother, in heaven, blame him?
He felt guilty for breaking his promise to his beloved Jiaojiao because of someone who had already passed away.
Harigana had already guessed some of it, so it wasn't very surprising.
Moreover, she never had any expectations from the beginning. This is ancient times, not modern times. In this era where power reigns supreme, what is the point of equality for everyone?
"Xuan Ye!"
He immediately interrupted him, covering his mouth with one hand to stop him from continuing, and with the other hand, he mimicked Kangxi's gesture by patting his forehead.
"Isn't that stupid?"
Kangxi looked at Harigana, not understanding what she meant.
Didn't I say that as long as you like me, I don't care about anything else?
Kangxi nodded and tightened his grip on her waist.
"That settles it!"
She rolled her eyes at him, released her hand from his mouth, and hugged his neck: "The affairs of the imperial court and the harem are inseparable. Even if I'm stupid, I know that."
Whether I seek revenge or not, as long as you're by my side, those things don't matter. Why are you thinking so much?
What I said to the Empress Dowager that day was not a lie. You also have the blood of the Tongjia clan in your veins. Even if it weren't for others, but for the sake of my mother and you, I wouldn't care about these things.
"If my mother, in heaven, saw you harming her people because of another woman, do you think she wouldn't be heartbroken?"
Harigana's words were like a piece of candied fruit, making Kangxi's heart completely sweet.
"Jiaojiao!"
He pulled the person into his arms, his voice choked with emotion.
She reached out and hugged Kangxi's waist, snuggling against him: "Xuan Ye, it's really okay. If you hadn't said that, I would have completely forgotten about those things."
I hate evil, but I'm not someone who acts blindly and recklessly.
As long as you can handle those things with a clear conscience, that's fine. As for me, it's really okay.
All I've ever wanted is you. As long as you can protect me, I don't care at all, really.
It's like,
Harigana thought for a moment, then sat up straight: "Just like this war with Tsarist Russia, they provoked us, and it was because they harmed the Qing Dynasty and hurt the people that you sent troops, right?"
If they keep provoking but don't actually cause any real harm, would you send troops?
Kangxi shook his head: "No!"
Harigana also shook his head: "I'm not sure what I'm saying, but it's roughly the same idea."
They didn't really harm me, so I didn't take them to heart at all.
Don't think about things that are useful or useless; you're just making yourself miserable.
Even if it weren't for you, but for my mother, I wouldn't blame you for this.
I touched Kangxi's head; it was bald, which was quite amusing.
Emperor Kangxi was overwhelmed with emotion. He had imagined many scenarios, but this was the one he dared not even think about.
"Jiaojiao! Thank you!"
The two men looked into each other's eyes; Kangxi was filled with gratitude and joy, while Harigana's eyes were filled with clarity.
"I have requirements! You're thanking me too early!"
I may not care, and I may be tolerant, but some things still need to be said in advance.
Jiaojiao said, "I..."
He paused, wanting to say that he could definitely satisfy her, but thinking of his slip of the tongue this time, he dared not make any more boastful claims.
"What? You can't do it?"
Harigana grabbed his braid and looked at him with an incredulous expression.
"Yes! I can!"
Kangxi answered quickly, and this subconscious reaction made Harigana feel better. He nodded in satisfaction: "Yes! I am a man of principle."
I don't care about these things, but you must always remember what I do care about.
If you have truly done something to wrong me, I will not give you any chance to be resurrected.
For someone like you, I would completely eliminate them without a single chance.
Kangxi nodded; he knew where Harigana's bottom line lay.
She only cared about him and nothing else; she was indifferent to everything else.
"Jiaojiao, I won't, don't worry."
Harigana didn't say he believed him; whether or not, only death would tell.
When people first start dating, don't they all make solemn vows to the heavens and the earth, only to end up as a resentful couple?
She would never believe it unless it came to a final conclusion.
Trust is something that can be given away at any time, but it can also be taken back at any time.
"Xuan Ye, time will tell. I have a lifetime to give you the chance to prove yourself."
Kangxi felt somewhat uneasy, but Harigana did not say he believed it.
But she said it was for a lifetime, so I'll show her.
"Jiaojiao, I love you, I love you so much!"
After the matter of the Tongjia clan was resolved, Emperor Kangxi directly ordered a thorough investigation of the Wuya clan.
This whole ordeal lasted seven or eight days.
During this period, Emperor Kangxi was very busy, and officials from all walks of life were constantly on the move.
Every day, many memorials were submitted to the emperor in the imperial study, and Kangxi returned home very late each day.
"Chasu, you and the rest of you stay in Qingxi Palace and close the palace gates."
"No one is allowed to leave until the Emperor and I return."
Harigana wanted to visit the Qianqing Palace to see Emperor Kangxi, but the palace gates remained tightly closed, a habit he had maintained for the past year.
Although no one dares to oppose her openly, what if something happens?
With the two children still here, it's best to be cautious.
Although the Uya and Tongjia clans have fallen from power, no one can be sure whether their people have been completely eliminated.
"Yes! This servant obeys!"
Chasu was skilled in martial arts; she understood Harigana's meaning and turned to guard the door of the side hall.
Hu Mama and Su Mama have been on edge lately, because the Emperor's actions are too big and the affairs of the Imperial Household Department are complicated. They are very careful about everything, for fear of falling into a trap.
"Little Li, go to the Empress Dowager's place and tell her to ask her to go and see the Grand Empress Dowager."
Although she can no longer cause any major trouble, it's still best to be careful.
The Empress Dowager is very perceptive; if she makes any discoveries, she will definitely tell her.
Even with bodyguards present, it's still best to be cautious.
"Yes! This servant will go right away!"
