"Jiaojiao, you did a great job."
Even when punishing someone, she didn't know how to punish them completely, and she even forgot about Guo Luoluo Shi, which shows how angry she was at the time.
Of course, he only thought this in his heart and dared not say it aloud.
Feeling the person in her arms breathe a sigh of relief, she would have laughed at her carelessness if the occasion hadn't been inappropriate.
The Empress finally unleashed her power, but she didn't do it clearly, and someone was left behind.
After this incident, the already quiet greetings became even more formal.
The four consorts were reduced to three, with Consort Yi and Consort Rong being confined to their quarters, leaving only Consort Hui unharmed outside.
However, Consort Hui seemed to have no problem with it. After all, the eldest prince and the ninth prince had a good relationship, so it was unlikely that the Empress would make things difficult for Consort Hui.
For a time, the harem fell completely silent, and no one dared to cause any trouble.
Harigana's book is almost finished, but because Emperor Kangxi always reads it, it's rather unremarkable. Apart from the somewhat engaging plot, there isn't even a kissing scene.
I had written it, but that jerk wouldn't let me, so I had no choice but to scrap that chapter.
Before long, it was Yinreng's birthday. Harigana ordered the kitchen to prepare some food and asked Kangxi to take him to see him.
"Your Majesty."
Dulan pouted, looking somewhat unhappy.
Although she knew that the way the Second Prince treated her beautiful eldest princess was for the Emperor's benefit, she still felt uncomfortable.
Moreover, what if the emperor softens his heart?
After all, the Second Prince was raised by the Emperor himself, so how could the affection be the same?
It's been a year already. If she had a wise person by her side to advise her and say a few words to make the emperor lower his guard, wouldn't her eldest princess have shot herself in the foot?
"It's alright, don't worry."
Harigana still had confidence in Kangxi. After being together for so long, wouldn't he be a useless person if he didn't even have this much confidence?
"Okay! Got it."
I dared not say more; Wei Qi was still there.
I thought Kangxi would have lunch with Yinreng before returning, but he only went out for half an hour before coming back.
Moreover, his complexion was unusually pale.
"Xuan Ye, why are you back so quickly?"
Harigana put down his sewing kit, walked to the table, and poured him a glass of water: "Take a sip. Why are you so angry?"
I took the water glass from her and drank it all in one gulp.
Because of the large movements, a few drops of blood ran down his chin and soaked the dragon robe on his chest.
"Jiaojiao, I'm fine, I'll be alright after a while."
Harigana didn't ask any further questions, probably because he had been mistreated by Yinreng.
She took the sewing basket that was placed to the side, sat down next to him, and began to embroider a purse.
The light blue pouch is for the baby and Beibei.
A few days ago, Beibei saw Kangxi's purse and tried to snatch it, but he didn't give it to her, saying it was a gift from his mother and couldn't be given away.
As a result, Beibei wanted the purse her mother embroidered, and even chose the color, saying she wanted to use the same one as her brother.
Look, the baby's embroidery is finished, now it's Beibei's turn.
"hiss!"
She accidentally pricked her finger, and blood beaded on her slender white fingertip. Before she could react, Kangxi grabbed her hand.
"Jiaojiao, does it hurt?"
He looked at her with a pained expression, then turned to Li Dequan and asked him to get the medicine.
"Xuan Ye, it's alright, it'll be fine in a bit."
Kangxi looked at her disapprovingly: "She's bleeding, how could she be alright?"
She stopped arguing and obediently waited for him to apply the medicine to her.
He had already placed the sewing basket aside, and the bloodstains on his fingertips had been wiped clean.
Actually, there's really no need to worry like that.
Fortunately, it was just ointment, which was available at Qingxi Palace, so it wouldn't take much time.
If you go to the Imperial Hospital to get the medicine, the wound will have already healed by the time it arrives.
Seeing his alarmed expression, she chuckled and said, "Xuan Ye, I'm not Bei Bei."
Kangxi was helpless; he was genuinely worried.
"You!"
He tapped her forehead: "You're even more delicate than Beibei."
Harigana's face flushed red instantly, and he slapped him hard on the chest: "Aren't you ashamed!"
Men are indeed not to be pitied. He was just a moment ago extremely sullen, but now he's making lewd jokes with her.
Kangxi didn't dodge, and the hit didn't hurt much. Besides, his darling's reactions are getting faster and faster.
The previous frustration vanished, and I regained my spirits.
"emperor!"
Li Dequan hurriedly brought in the ointment, thinking something serious had happened, but it turned out to be just something he applied to his finger.
I almost couldn't help but shake my head and sigh, but I forced myself to leave the inner hall.
The Emperor is truly unpredictable now. Isn't he even more ruthless when he bullies people?
When you were doing that, you didn't care about me at all, but now you're worried sick.
"Alright, let's not do it today. We'll talk about it in a few days."
Harigana looked at the thick layer of ointment on his finger and was somewhat speechless.
Without a doubt, this is a sign of jealousy.
"Xuan Ye, look at the bottom of the basket."
Fortunately, she was prepared, otherwise she wouldn't have needed to do her needlework today.
Kangxi's eyes lit up. He put the ointment aside, opened the basket, and sure enough, saw a golden purse inside, clearly a good gift for him.
"Jiaojiao, when did you make this? How come I didn't know?"
The two of them were together almost every day, and they really didn't notice that she had any embroidery skills.
"I embroidered it for several days, waiting for you to go to court before I put it away before you came back."
I wanted to surprise you, but I didn't expect you to be so petty, even jealous of your daughter.
Kangxi didn't care; he had gotten what he wanted, so he didn't care what she said.
Moreover, he was jealous. Harigana was his queen, and even if that person was his favorite daughter, it wouldn't be acceptable.
"Thank you for your hard work, I really like it."
As he spoke, he took off the one from his waist and put on a new one.
While he was changing his purse, Harigana quickly cleaned the ointment off her hands and took the basket next to her to continue embroidering for Beibei.
Just a few stitches left, it'll be done soon.
Looking at the smug man, she shook her head to herself: I didn't expect him to be so narcissistic; he's been standing by the mirror admiring himself for quite a while now.
"emperor!"
Li Dequan's voice came through, ruining Kangxi's good mood.
Normally, he would have yelled at us fiercely, but for some reason, he just stood there without moving.
"Come in!"
Li Dequan entered to pay his respects, but without even glancing at his purse, he immediately reported, "Your Majesty, there is news of a victory at the border."
As he spoke, he presented the letter in his hand.
Kangxi took the letter from his hand and quickly flipped through it, becoming more and more excited as he read.
"Jiaojiao, you won!"
Harigana walked to his side and glanced at the contents of the letter. Although he had known all along that they would win the battle, he was still very excited now that his idea had become a reality.
"Xuan Ye, congratulations! The territory of the Qing Dynasty has expanded again."
