Kangxi did it on purpose, because they looked shocked when they heard the two children's nicknames were Baobao and Beibei.
Harigana turned his head and glared at him, knowing he was petty and would definitely find a chance to retaliate.
"Second brother, sister-in-law, Xuan Ye is just asking."
Kangxi did not refute, but stood there playing with the child.
No sooner had Harigana finished speaking than he heard, "Xuan Ye, has he really issued an imperial decree?"
Prince Yu thought it was a good thing, after all, it was a name bestowed by imperial decree.
Moreover, he knew his younger brother well; he would never act recklessly in such an important matter.
If their child were to receive a name bestowed by the emperor, they could avoid some obstacles on their path to officialdom.
Kangxi turned to look at Prince Yu, his eyes filled with shock.
Looking at his simple-minded second brother, he felt a pang of regret.
It's a joke that he's been on guard against someone like that for over a decade.
Harigana almost couldn't hold back, after all, Kangxi was just joking, but now he was the one being carried up there.
“Brother, I am the emperor, and my word is law.”
As soon as Kangxi finished speaking, Prince Yu immediately expressed his gratitude: "On behalf of the unborn child, Your Majesty thanks Xuan Ye in advance!"
The Empress Dowager had watched the two children grow up. Although she wasn't very close to them before, she knew about the resentment in their hearts.
Looking at the brotherly affection and respect they have now, I realize that letting go of one's obsessions leads to having more and more friends.
"Alright, stop it!"
Seeing Prince Yu's appearance, Kangxi realized that his resentment had completely dissipated.
As they spoke, it was as if they had returned to the time when the two of them were bald-headed princes and secretly ran away to race horses together.
He was six years old at the time, and Prince Yu was ten; they were both at an age where they loved to play.
"hey-hey!"
Prince Yu grinned foolishly, feeling like he had struck gold.
Having learned from the previous experience, Prince Yu of Kangxi did not drink much this time. He and the Empress Dowager finished their dinner after drinking less than one jar of wine.
"Xuan Ye, aren't the gifts from your elder brother and sister-in-law a bit too expensive?"
After Harigana and the others left, she glanced at the gift that Princess Consort Yu had given her and discovered that it was actually a shop deed with two pieces of warm jade on top.
Emperor Kangxi took a look at it; ten shops for one person—he was quite generous.
"It's alright, we'll prepare a generous gift after their child is born."
Previously, Prince Yu's life had not been easy because of his estrangement. Now, without knowing that he would be bestowed a name, he was given such a generous gift, which made him feel uneasy.
"Okay! I need to think about what I should do."
After Harigana finished speaking, he thought of the matter of opening a shop that they had discussed before, and turned to look at Kangxi: "Xuanye, didn't you say that you would find me a reliable person to help run the shop outside the palace all year round?"
What do you think of Prince Yu?
Although Prince Yu looks simple-minded, who says he has to run the business? Wouldn't it be better to just find a good manager?
Kangxi's eyes lit up, and he hugged Harigana and kissed her forehead heavily: "Jiaojiao, you've thought of everything."
All the previous issues stemmed from his own paranoia. If he were to do some business with Prince Yu, it would be a small compensation for them.
"Xuan Ye, be gentle!"
She patted his shoulder lightly and said in a coquettish voice, "It's all because of you!"
A few days ago, I happened to see Prince Yu's second son. Although he was similar to the Crown Prince, he seemed much more composed and quick-witted.
She couldn't be sure what she would look like in the future, but her current appearance was quite remarkable.
Therefore, she wanted to establish a bond that would tie Prince Yu's Mansion and Yin Fu together.
In the future, regardless of whether Yinfu will actually ascend the throne, having a powerful backer will ensure things won't be too bad.
Moreover, if anything goes wrong with Prince Yu in the future, they can just find an excuse to get rid of him.
It's easy to sever ties, but it's difficult to build them.
It's never a bad thing for her to make some plans early.
"Yes! My darling is the best!"
Kangxi held Harigana, his heart filled with gratitude.
The baby and baby were kicking their legs and giggling as they watched the two hug each other, having a great time.
The next day, Kangxi wanted to take Harigana to visit a nearby city, but she insisted on taking the Empress Dowager along.
Here they are, the two of them are haggling over the price.
"Jiaojiao, I want to go out with you alone. Could we not bring the Empress Dowager this time? We can do it next time."
Kangxi held Harigana in his arms, his large hands casually caressing her body.
Especially her waist, which almost made her lose her balance.
"But I promised Mother that I would take her with me when I go out to play in the future. I can't break my promise!"
She reached out to try to remove his hand, but before she could push it away, he grasped it in his palm.
"Jiaojiao, just this once, the Empress Dowager will understand."
Kangxi whispered sweet nothings in her ear, and his large hand, which was on her waist, slid excessively down to the hem of her skirt.
"Stop! I'll do as you say, let's go now."
Harigana immediately backed down.
The man's breathing was already abnormal. If she didn't agree, not only would she not be able to leave with the Empress Dowager, but she herself wouldn't be able to get out either.
Kangxi, still somewhat unsatisfied, withdrew his hand and helped her straighten her clothes: "Jiaojiao, sometimes, you don't have to be so obedient."
Harigana choked.
I knew he had a filthy mind, but now that he's not in the palace, he really wants to be with her all the time.
This is because she has good physical fitness; if it were someone with poor physical fitness, it would have taken them a long time to recover.
