Harigana sat up straight, looked at Kangxi, and nervously clutched the dragon robe on his chest with her small hands.
"How is she?"
She still remembered what Kangxi had said before, but so much time had passed that she had almost forgotten about it!
"The person is still alive, but is no longer in a state of consciousness!"
After Kangxi finished speaking, he picked her up and carried her to the dragon throne, where she sat down. He then took Baoli Ri's letter from the side and showed it to her.
Harigana took the letter, and after reading it, he was speechless!
She had clearly succeeded in escaping, even if she had to live under an assumed name! As long as Kangxi didn't find her, she could secretly contact Saienjiya and the others a few years later!
Unexpectedly, she not only did not do that, but even ran towards the capital. In the end, she got lost, crossed the vast forest, and returned to the banks of the Nenjiang River!
"Xuan Ye, what have you decided to do?"
Emperor Kangxi pondered for a while. In fact, he had just received the letter and had not yet figured out how to resolve the situation.
He had previously thought that he couldn't let this person live, but now that she was out of her mind, he couldn't really kill her.
Regardless of whether Baoliri feels comfortable or not, at least Harigana cannot be made to think that he is cruel!
"Jiaojiao, you may be spared the death penalty, but you can't escape punishment! Whether she's truly mentally unstable or not, I will never give her another chance to regain her senses!"
Harigana did not react, even though he knew this was the best outcome. At least Saengiya and the others would not lose their child and would not have to grieve.
After a long while, Kangxi heard a very soft voice: "It's good that you're alive!"
Borchijin Tribe.
Baoli Ri and Sai Enjiya waited anxiously for nearly half a month before finally receiving a letter from the Qing Emperor.
After reading the letter, the couple felt relieved, but a deep sense of guilt followed.
The two daughters, the elder one survived, but became mentally impaired. The younger one, because of her sister, is now suffering countless injustices in the deep palace.
"Seingiya, when spring arrives and the flowers bloom, go and see the children!"
Baoliri has been exhausted by the Haburi incident lately, and it's hard to say whether their current situation is fortunate or unfortunate!
If it weren't for Harigana's favor with the emperor, Habur's escape would have been enough to force him to step down from his position as chief!
"Harigana said in her letter not to go there, and that she would write to us when she needed us! Let's stay put. I trust my daughter; she must have her own reasons!"
Saenjaya had calmed down. She understood Baoliri's thoughts; he was afraid the child would develop a grudge. But both children were her flesh and blood. They would rather have Habril become mentally impaired than let her lose her life at such a young age.
"You decide! This is your decision!"
After Baoli finished speaking, he prepared to go and see what Harigana had left behind.
At first, he didn't realize it, but later he found out that it was a life-saving charm left by his daughter!
So now the smallpox vaccine experiment has been done three times. If it is successful again this time, they can go to the capital to meet the emperor and then meet Harigana.
What Baoli Ri and Sai Enjiya were discussing was unknown to the people in the capital, because Emperor Kangxi was currently carrying out his plans in a grand and sweeping manner.
Because the secret guards have thoroughly investigated the affairs of the Uya clan!
"emperor!"
Li Dequan looked at Kangxi's ashen face, unsure whether he should say what he was about to say.
"explain!"
Emperor Kangxi never expected that a family of bondservantes would have such audacity, not only engaging in fraudulent activities within the Imperial Household Department, but even daring to withhold items intended for the palace!
If it weren't for Harigana, he might not have known these things. In a few years, the Uya clan's treasury might be comparable to the national treasury!
Li Dequan knelt on the ground: "Your Majesty, this servant has already interrogated you thoroughly. The reason why Consort Wuya was favored was because the Wuya clan possessed a secret medicine that could not only arouse passions but also induce pregnancy."
The Fourth Prince and the Sixth Prince were both born this way! And…
Li Dequan didn't dare to look up, swallowed hard, and continued, "Furthermore, the Wuya clan not only has Consort Wuya, but also keeps girls on the estate who look similar to the ladies in the harem. Some of them are just over ten years old, and they want to be chosen as the legitimate daughters of the Wuya clan during the imperial concubine selection in a few years!"
Bang!
Emperor Kangxi was furious; it was an utter disgrace!
He, an emperor, was actually manipulated by a bondservant. He was even quite pleased with Lady Uya and gave her the title of Consort De!
"Tell me everything, what else is there?"
Emperor Kangxi suppressed his anger. This matter involved the face of the royal family. Even if he was really angry, he could not reveal the truth, otherwise he would become a laughing stock for the whole world.
Having said all that, Li Dequan stopped hesitating and confessed everything, including that Wuya had worn a secret medicine on her hand that night and had even put a sleeping potion in the crystal cake in order to win the emperor's favor.
Emperor Kangxi was shocked upon hearing this!
He had already angered Harigana because of this matter, and now that he heard there was actually a hidden story, he felt even more sorry for her.
This was just a member of the Uya clan, a mere bondservant.
He can't even imagine what would shock him if he really investigated all the powerful and influential families.
"You can go now!"
Emperor Kangxi needs to think this over. This matter is far-reaching and has now become more than just a matter concerning the Uya clan.
If the Uya clan is wiped out, others will become alert, making it difficult to investigate, and it might even backfire.
"Yes! Your servant obeys!"
Li Dequan quietly withdrew, and as he closed the door, he saw Kangxi sitting on the dragon throne, turning Buddhist prayer beads, his eyes seemingly vacant!
Others might not think much of it, but he understood Kangxi.
He knew that the previous dynasty was about to face a bloody storm!
Harigana only knew that Kangxi was very busy lately, but she didn't know what he was busy with. He didn't say, and she didn't ask. Anyway, he would tell her what he could without her asking, and she wouldn't ask what he didn't want to tell her.
Moreover, she has clearly felt the baby in her belly moving these past few days, as if it is turning over.
It didn't hurt, but the feeling was very strange.
