"Mother, tomorrow, another group of people will leave the palace."
Harigana's words startled the Empress Dowager for a moment, then she looked at her in shock: "You mean, even those who have served the Emperor should be sent away?"
This news is indeed astonishing, especially since Kangxi was an emperor. How could he possibly allow his woman to go out?
Besides, even if the Emperor doesn't care, would the Empress Dowager agree?
"Mother, everything is ready."
I didn't know at first; I only found out yesterday.
Everything was done by Xuan Ye, and the Empress Dowager tacitly approved it.
Harigana was also quite curious as to why Bumbutai would agree.
If it were for the sake of the Khorchin, sending away those who hadn't yet served the emperor would be understandable.
But why would those who were to serve him in bed agree to this?
Upon hearing her mention yesterday, the Empress Dowager whispered, "I listened to what the servants said and wanted to go see you, but I thought you probably didn't want to see anyone, so I didn't go."
Yesterday, she genuinely believed that men's nature was hard to change, and that Harigana might be heartbroken.
The result was indeed heartbreaking, but it wasn't Harigana who was saddened, but she.
And it wasn't just sadness and grief; she even felt some hatred.
Some have died, some have grown old, and now that she has Yinqi, Yinfu, and Bayalige, and Harigana and Kangxi treat her very well, worrying about some things is pointless.
"Yes, I misunderstood too."
It's a matter between two people, and you can't talk too much about it with others.
She knows it in her heart, there's no need to brag to everyone about what Kangxi said or how he coaxed people.
Those who understand will naturally understand.
Seeing her blushing face, the Empress Dowager naturally didn't ask any more questions. When it comes to love between men and women, who isn't experiencing bittersweet emotions?
As long as they can be happy and healthy in the future, that's all that matters. Occasional setbacks are just a test of character.
If you persevere and work together, your relationship will definitely get better and better after you get through this.
Harigana could see the bitterness and envy in the Empress Dowager's eyes, but what was done was done, and she could only stay by her side.
If this were modern times, she might advise her to find a boss, but this is ancient times, and she is the Empress Dowager of a country.
Not to mention that remarriage is extremely rare, the position of Empress Dowager would absolutely not be given to someone who has remarried.
Regardless of whether she was Kangxi's biological mother or not, she is now the Empress Dowager.
If he finds a second spring, wouldn't that be exactly like finding a stepfather for the emperor?
"Mother, when we go to Jiangnan in a while, we'll relax properly."
With Emperor Kangxi's birthday approaching, we can go south after it ends.
Then let Seneja and the Empress Dowager have some fun and relax.
Especially in Sainjiya, who has spent her whole life on the grasslands, the scenery is indeed beautiful, but the Jiangnan water towns also have their own unique charm.
It's hard to say which is better; if I had to say, they each have their own merits.
"Okay, then your mother and I will have a good time together."
The Empress Dowager verbally agreed, but in her heart she was thinking: In the end, wouldn't she still have to help those two careless people take care of the children?
Putting aside Bao Bao and Bei Bei, once she went to Jiangnan, she would absolutely not feel comfortable leaving Xiao Wu in the care of anyone else.
No, she should be the one looking after the three children herself.
She had been to Jiangnan before, and the scenery was indeed very beautiful, but she probably only had a fleeting novelty about it for a few days.
But since Seneja and Pauli hadn't been there, she wouldn't stop the couple from going out for a stroll.
She had only exchanged a few words with the Empress Dowager when Li Dequan came over and said that the Emperor had something he wanted to discuss with her and asked her to go to the Qing Palace now.
"Your Majesty, the Emperor said it's an urgent matter, but he didn't say what it is."
Li Dequan was hunched over, genuinely unaware of what had happened.
"Go ahead, go ahead!"
Before Harigana could speak, the Empress Dowager nudged the person clinging to her, her face full of amusement.
"Eji."
Blushing, she stood up and said, "I'll come see you again tomorrow."
The Empress Dowager waved her hand without saying anything, saying she would talk about it tomorrow if he could come out.
After leaving the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, we soon arrived at the Palace of Cleansing.
Standing at the entrance of the Imperial Study, Harigana turned to look at Li Dequan: "Eunuch Li, shall we go in and announce your arrival?"
Li Dequan knelt directly on the ground, his face filled with terror: "Your Majesty, this servant..."
"Get up, I didn't say anything."
Although he knew that he didn't blame him for what happened yesterday, Kangxi said that his explanation was unclear, otherwise he would have gone back long ago.
This was also her warning; she didn't intend to do anything else.
As his personal eunuch, this was absolutely a dereliction of duty on his part.
She was upset all afternoon yesterday. Although she knew it wasn't entirely his fault, she still had to give him a warning.
"Jiaojiao".
When Kangxi heard her voice, he came out and saw Li Dequan preparing to stand up, looking puzzled.
"Jiaojiao, why aren't you coming in?"
Harigana glanced around and, seeing no one else, said, "I was just about to ask Eunuch Li to go in and announce our arrival, but he was so scared that he knelt down on the ground."
Emperor Kangxi was speechless for a moment, and from then on, he would never dare to make decisions on his own.
"Jiaojiao".
He walked over, took her hand, and led her inside. Before closing the door, he glared at Li Dequan.
Outside the door, Dulan looked at the pitiful-looking Li Dequan and leaned closer to him, saying, "Tsk tsk tsk, so pitiful."
Li Dequan felt even more aggrieved; it turned out it was all his fault.
He didn't speak, but lowered his head and shook the whisk in his hand.
"Fine, I'll take it since you look so wronged."
