Kangxi did not notice anything unusual about Harigana. He held the person in his arms, gently stroked her back, and comforted her not to worry.
The sun is shining and there are no clouds in the sky.
With the kneeling voice of "Long live the emperor", Kangxi was the first to get off the carriage. Just when everyone thought that the emperor would wake up, the emperor who got off the carriage actually turned around and reached out to the carriage.
Everyone was puzzled, wondering if it was the Empress Dowager and the Emperor together?
But before they could figure it out, they saw a tender white little hand reaching out from the carriage and placing it on Kangxi's big palm.
Everyone was shocked. After all, that was the dragon chariot. The concubines who usually accompanied the emperor sat on it, but to get off the chariot on an occasion like today meant that her identity was definitely not ordinary!
Those who already knew the inside story were very calm, and even the people of the Tonggiya clan did not show any sign of abnormality.
It cannot be said that it was the Tonggiya clan, but people from several major families already knew that there was a Mongolian concubine who was favored by the emperor and was given the title of concubine. Now she has surpassed the Tonggiya concubine and has become a concubine with a title.
Only those minor officials and unfavored concubines fell into deep crisis after seeing Harigana. In the past, there was the straightforward and innocent Concubine Yi in the palace, the elderly Concubine Hui, and later the beloved and noble Concubine Tongjia and the gentle and considerate Concubine De.
Although they all knew Kangxi would bring several Mongolian concubines back to the palace after this tour, the Grand Empress Dowager's intentions were too obvious. However, they never took the Mongolian concubines seriously. Even if they were beautiful, they would not be favored by the emperor. After all, with an Empress Dowager and a Grand Empress Dowager already in place, it was simply unrealistic for the Mongols to claim the position of the Mother of the Nation.
Only the Grand Empress Dowager believed that the Emperor respected her, so she wanted to use marriage to strengthen the relationship between Mongolia and the Qing Dynasty. However, who could not see that the Emperor had long been extremely disgusted with this matter, and had even refused to allow any of his Mongolian concubines to bear a prince. This was enough to show that the Emperor did not want a blood-related child with Mongolia at all.
But now, the appearance of Harigana instantly shattered all their previous ideas, and many people fell into deep thought for a while.
Some of them wanted to make friends with Harigana when they had time. After all, considering the recent extensive renovations in the imperial palace and the woman who was personally helped down from the dragon chariot by the emperor, they knew that this person was definitely not comparable to those Mongolian concubines in the past!
Some people with dark thoughts were wondering whether they needed to band together and get rid of this woman so that the situation could return to its original state.
Regardless of what they thought, Kangxi held Harigana's hand tightly and walked to the side of the Empress Dowager: "Grandmother!"
Bumbutai looked straight ahead, but in such an occasion, even if she looked down on Harigana, she would not lose her royal demeanor.
"Well, I'm finally back to the palace!"
"rise!"
Li Dequan received Kangxi's signal and shouted loudly, and the crowd shouted in unison: "Thank you, Your Majesty! Long live the Emperor!"
Looking at the neat and orderly formation and the deafening sound, Harigana really wondered if these people had practiced in advance, otherwise the scene would be too regular!
Officials such as Soetu stood up and stepped forward immediately, and Longkodo, Tong Guowei and others also stepped forward immediately.
For a time, Kangxi and the Empress Dowager were surrounded by people who were concerned about their well-being. Even the concubines stood not far away, watching Kangxi, hoping to get a little bit of his favor.
"Huang Ama!"
A child's voice was very obvious among the voices full of hypocritical flattery.
"See His Highness the Crown Prince!"
The people around him saluted one after another. Harigana subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice and saw a boy about 1.2 meters tall, wearing blue clothes, with a forehead shaved clean like Kangxi, and a smile on his face walking towards them.
Kangxi held Harigana's hand tightly and subconsciously turned his head to look at her. He found that she was looking curiously in the direction of Yinreng. There was nothing wrong on her face. Although she was uneasy in her heart, she did not show it.
It's just that outsiders don't know, how could Harigana not know? Her hand was held by Kangxi, and the feeling of him holding her hand tightly was too obvious.
No wonder when she was standing in the carriage just now, especially after entering the capital, she always felt that Kangxi seemed to be hesitant to speak. Now she thinks it must be his good sons!
During this time, he had confessed his past completely. Especially after leaving the Summer Resort, he had intentionally or unintentionally told her about the events in the palace, but he hadn't mentioned anything about the child.
But even if she really guessed it, she wouldn't say it out loud.
Again, she could only stay with Kangxi for the rest of her life, so she could only make Kangxi's love last longer. Although Kangxi would do anything for her now, after all, she was not yet in her forties, nor was she at the age when he allowed his children to fight in order to stay emperor for a few more years.
She is just getting started now. The emperor's favor comes and goes quickly!
Let Kangxi feel guilty. With love and guilt, she can go further.
So when she noticed Kangxi turned his head to look at her, she subconsciously pulled her hand away, and the other hand touched her belly. But she quickly adjusted her mentality, turned her head to look at Kangxi and shook her head gently, quickly, before Kangxi could see her expression, she lowered her head.
Kangxi felt a pain in his heart, and Harigana was still sad.
"Baocheng! Get up quickly!"
No matter what Harigana does, now he can only hold her hand tightly and silently tell her that he will always be with her and by her side.
Yinreng, now only eight years old, saw that his father had a new woman by his side, and his eyes flashed with sadness and resentment. But it was only for a moment that he regained his clarity, but what happened in this moment was seen by Kangxi.
"Father Emperor, Baocheng misses you so much!"
Yinreng stood up and walked over to Kangxi, wanting to hold his arm like he did when they were little. But on one side was the Grand Empress Dowager, and on the other was Harigana. He couldn't take the Grand Empress Dowager's place, so he could only reach out and hold Harigana's hand.
When Yinreng rushed over, Harigana was already prepared to let go of Kangxi's hand. After all, she was the only one who saw the unclear emotion in Yinreng's eyes.
Fortunately, Kangxi had made plans in advance. When Yinreng approached him, he let go of the Empress Dowager's hand and embraced him, and brought Harigana behind him to avoid being bumped.
