Since Jiaojiao can't learn it, he'll demonstrate it for her.
"Consort Tongjia has no respect for hierarchy, has offended the Emperor, and has behaved improperly before the Emperor. She is hereby stripped of her title and demoted to the rank of Consort."
Li Dequan clicked his tongue in amazement; that person was truly a living ancestor.
Before, it was that you couldn't hurt her, but now it's that you can't even say a word against her.
And is he now falsely conveying imperial edicts again?
What is meant by "disrespecting the emperor"?
The Emperor had seen Lady Tongjia, yet he behaved improperly before the Emperor.
"Yes! Your servant obeys!"
Li Dequan acknowledged and withdrew. He first went to the Imperial Household Department with Xiao Lizi to select a few people before heading to Chengqian Palace.
When Lady Tongjia saw Li Dequan, she was still hoping that the Emperor would allow her people to return, and she was even thinking about whether he would come to give her something to comfort her.
But when she heard the words "disrespectful behavior before the emperor," she couldn't catch her breath and fainted.
"Go and summon the imperial physician!"
Li Dequan slowly explained.
He might have been anxious before, but now that he understands the emperor's intentions, he is not only not anxious, but also thinking that it would be best if the emperor had contracted some serious illness.
If she really contracted a serious illness, he could easily whisper in her ear and have her leave the palace to recuperate.
After these two incidents, the harem was peaceful for a time.
When the day for paying respects arrived, Emperor Kangxi waved his hand and said that the Empress Dowager was unwell and could not exert herself, thus exempting him from paying respects.
He never wanted Harigana to see those women. Although she kept saying she wouldn't be sad because of his past, Kangxi felt that she was just enduring it and hadn't truly been indifferent. Otherwise, she wouldn't have started crying while talking that day.
Thinking of her pitiful expression that day, Kangxi wanted to laugh.
They might say they don't care, but they could be incredibly heartbroken inside.
Now he only hopes that he can live a long time and spend more time with Harigana, so that in the next life the age gap between them won't be so big, and he can stay with Harigana forever.
"Xuan Ye, look at this! No matter how I draw it, it's not right!"
That day, Harigana thought about drawing some things for children to play with, so that after the new Qingxi Palace was built, he could make a small amusement park in the corner of the backyard.
I could draw the swing, but I just couldn't draw the slide no matter what.
Helpless, she could only take the drawing paper to Emperor Kangxi.
"Jiaojiao, what is this?"
When the door to the Imperial Study was pushed open, Kangxi knew it was Harigana who had arrived. After all, no one else would be so bold as to enter without making a sound.
He put down his brush, waited for her to approach, then sat on her lap. He took the drawing paper from her hand, but couldn't make out what it was about at all.
"This is a swing, and I haven't decided what to call this yet."
Harigana pointed at the slide, which looked like a strange, unrecognizable shape, his face turning red.
Emperor Kangxi knew about swings, but he never expected her to draw one.
Remembering that he had previously mentioned getting some toys for the children at Qingxi Palace, he understood.
"What is this for?"
Harigana immediately became interested. If this thing could really be made, not only could the two children play with it, but she could also join in.
So when Kangxi asked, she immediately explained it to him.
Half an hour later, Harigana looked at the drawing paper in his hand, his face full of indignation.
"Xuan Ye, it's so unfair that you have to teach me how to paint from now on!"
The slide painted by Emperor Kangxi cannot be said to be a complete reproduction of the slide in his memory of Harigana, but it is at least 80% similar.
"Okay, okay, I'll teach you how to paint from now on."
Seeing the woman's unhappy face, Kangxi immediately tried to comfort her.
I don't know how her little brain is structured, she always manages to come up with some strange things.
Although he hasn't seen it in person yet, he imagines it would be very popular with children.
He held the person in his arms tightly and kissed her cheek: "Jiaojiao, you really are a treasure."
Harigana raised his head, a hint of arrogance in his voice: "Of course, such a precious gem of mine, and in the end, you got it for free."
Emperor Kangxi nodded, acknowledging that it was indeed a bargain for him.
"By the way, didn't I tell you before that Mother gave the dowry to the two children? Mother just sent someone over to say that it has been counted and they want to send it to Qingxi Palace."
But the Qingxi Palace's current storerooms can't hold it all. How about we store it in your private treasury first?"
Harigana tried to persuade her several times to keep it, but the Empress Dowager just stared at her with a stern face and didn't say a word.
Reluctantly, she had no choice but to agree.
"good!"
Emperor Kangxi readily agreed, but immediately turned around and called Li Dequan in.
"emperor!"
Li Dequan hunched over, not daring to look up, even a fool could tell that his emperor was absolutely clinging to the Imperial Noble Consort right now.
"Go and fetch the key to my private treasury!"
When Li Dequan came over with the key, Kangxi immediately stuffed it into Harigana's hand: "Jiaojiao, it's for you."
Li Dequan, who was turning to leave, almost fell to the ground, thinking: The Emperor is getting more and more insane.
Could it be that one day someone suddenly presents the imperial seal to that living ancestor, just to make him happy?
As she closed the door, she peeked out and saw the Emperor embracing and kissing the Imperial Concubine. Fu Chen was so startled that she almost fell to the ground.
"Xuan Ye, calm down!"
Harigana grabbed his hand, stopping her from continuing.
"Jiaojiao, when will you get better!"
Kangxi held Harigana in his arms, his voice filled with grievance.
Previously, I couldn't eat or touch certain foods because I was pregnant.
She finally gave birth and got through her postpartum period, but after only two days of eating, she said she was feeling unwell.
Emperor Kangxi's heart ached so badly it felt like it was filled with the bitterness of star anise, the kind of star anise with holes that let in the wind.
"Evening, evening!"
Harigana was also helpless. Who knew that her things, which she had prepared for so long, would be delayed by various things and she still hadn't used them.
Actually, she had already finished two days ago, but Granny Su said to wait a few days after it was over before having sex, so Kangxi had been holding back for almost ten days.
"real?"
Kangxi's eyes lit up, showing no trace of his previous dejection, and even a hint of excitement.
Harigana swallowed hard, hesitating whether to wear it that night.
A wolf that is already starving will first devour its prey. If it were to think about having more meat, there wouldn't even be any bones left.
"Okay! I'm going back now!"
After Harigana finished speaking, she struggled to get down, but Kangxi detained her in the Qianqing Palace, ostensibly to watch her review memorials quickly.
Then, bored, Harigana once again nestled in Kangxi's arms and fell asleep.
As for the blueprint, Kangxi secretly ordered Li Dequan to send it to the Imperial Household Department, instructing Sang De to find a way to make it and send it directly to Qingxi Palace.
