The most favored princess in the imperial harem, the delicate little princess of Emperor Kangxi

It's impossible to say that Harigana didn't feel anything at that moment. But no matter what, now was not the time for her to be moved.

"Baocheng! You're already so old, and you're still acting like this after seeing your father. How disgraceful!"

Perhaps it was because she felt guilty that Harigana didn't have the hands to tell the truth, or perhaps it was because she saw the resentment in Yinreng's eyes just now, and even more so because Harigana wanted to pull her hand back just now.

In short, although Kangxi still held Yinreng around his waist as before, his tone was not as gentle as usual.

Yinreng froze for a moment. Although he was not even ten years old, he was the child raised by Kangxi after all. He had been the crown prince since childhood, and even his words and deeds were the result of strict education!

So he clearly felt Kangxi's reprimand and displeasure.

"Father, I know I was wrong!"

Yinreng lowered his head, and no one could see what he was thinking.

Harigana squeezed his hand gently, signaling him not to do that.

It’s not that Harigana is pretending to be kind, but she has just arrived at the palace and Kangxi is still holding her hand. If the matter gets out of hand, it will be difficult to resolve.

The Empress Dowager wanted to say something, but in the end she couldn't. After all, she had seen Yinreng's little thoughts just now. For a crown prince to do such a thing was really unmannerly.

"Alright! I'm not scolding you, come and help your Dama!"

Kangxi was not a reckless person. Since he could do something in public, he must have thought it through carefully. Even if Harigana hadn't reminded him just now, he wouldn't have said it again. But the little girl's reminder made him feel very comfortable.

"It's the Emperor!"

Yinreng walked to the Empress Dowager, took the hand that Kangxi was holding, and stood there quietly.

According to custom, the court officials had intended to accompany Kangxi to the Palace of Heavenly Purity, exchange greetings, and then attend the banquet that evening. However, Kangxi simply spoke with them for a while at the palace gate and then simply refused to go to the Palace, citing the Empress Dowager's fatigue from the journey.

"I am sending the Grand Empress Dowager back to the palace. If you have any questions, please write a memorial and present it at the morning court tomorrow."

The Empress Dowager suppressed her anger and forced herself to remain calm. However, she gripped Yinreng and the Empress Dowager's hands with a little more force.

Now that Kangxi had full control of the government, no officials dared to say anything about this matter. They knelt respectfully on the ground and sent the few people back to the palace.

Harigana kept looking ahead without looking at anyone. Now she had become the focus of everyone's attention, and she didn't want to have too much involvement with anyone, so she left a very cold impression on others.

After entering the palace from the Meridian Gate, Kangxi took Harigana to escort the Grand Empress Dowager to the Cining Palace. He wanted to send the Empress Dowager off next, but Harigana was tactful and said that he would stay here to talk to the Grand Empress Dowager.

Yinreng stayed with the Empress Dowager, while the other children followed their mother back to the palace.

"Jiaojiao, when we have the chance in the future, I will take you to familiarize yourself with the palace. Later, I will ask Li Dequan to get you a map of the palace layout so that you can have a direct understanding of the palace."

Kangxi and Harigana came out of the Cining Palace and walked on the official road. He had just dismissed the concubines who followed him in the small garden of the Cining Palace, so now it was just Kangxi and Harigana.

Li Dequan was shocked, but then he thought it would be strange if the emperor didn't do this. Although the layout of the palace couldn't be shown to others casually, this person was none other than the emperor's beloved.

"No! I don't want that! I don't know how to wander around the palace. And if you have time in the future, just take me for a walk. I won't come out by myself anyway!"

Harigana is not a fool, she doesn't want any layout of the palace.

Although she didn't have much experience, she knew that there were many things in the palace that she was better off not knowing. When nothing happened, everything was sweet. If something went wrong, she wouldn't be able to explain it.

Besides, even if she knew the layout of the palace, what could she do? She couldn't just walk in and walk around!

Kangxi was a little surprised, but thinking of Harigana's reluctance to go out, he thought she was just too lazy to watch, so he didn't force her.

Neither of them took the matter seriously. Only Li Dequan, who had been following them, was shocked and subconsciously tightened his grip on Fu Chen.

[This Imperial Concubine Chen is truly naive. She actually refused such a thing!]

As they walked, Kangxi introduced the surrounding environment to Harigana. The Qianqing Palace was not far from the Cining Palace. When passing by the Yangxin Palace, she took a curious look.

"Jiaojiao likes it here?"

Seeing Harigana's curious look, Kangxi stood at the door of the Hall of Mental Cultivation and wanted to take her to see the place.

Harigana quickly shook her head. She was just curious about what Yongzheng's residence looked like.

"No, no, it's just that the name is very interesting, and I'm curious!"

Kangxi didn't think much about it.

In fact, she had initially considered giving Harigana the Hall of Mental Cultivation, but it was too close to the Qianqing Gate. Furthermore, as a concubine, Harigana would be better off in the harem. However, there wasn't a suitable place in the harem, so she ultimately decided to clear out the Jiaotai Hall for her to sleep in.

Although the Jiaotai Hall was smaller than the other palaces, it was not under the control of the harem and was closest to his Qianqing Palace. He had also decided to gradually tidy up the Kunning Palace and merge the Taihe Hall and Kunning Palace together. This would make Harigana's bedroom much larger.

Originally, he wanted to live in Jiaotai Palace for a few years. When the time was right, he could make Harigana the queen, and then he could live in Kunning Palace with full justification.

But he never expected that Harigana would become pregnant so soon, and Jiaotai Palace had already been half-cleaned up. No matter what, he could only let Harigana live there temporarily.

Fortunately, it will take a few years for the children to grow up. I believe that by the time their children grow up and need to live independently, he will have fulfilled his promise and Harigana will have become his wife.

"Okay! Let's go!"

Kangxi saw that Harigana really didn't want to go in, so he took his hand and continued to walk in. When passing by the gate of the Qianqing Palace, he even calculated the time at the beginning, wanting to know how long it would take to walk from the Qianqing Palace to Harigana's bedroom.

Harigana was still wondering why Kangxi, who had been talking nonstop just now, was now silent.

In fact, the Qianqing Palace is not far from the Jiaotai Hall. It’s just that from the main gate to the Jiaotai Hall, you have to go around the entire Qianqing Palace wall, so it took the two people about half a quarter of an hour to get there.

But when Harigana looked at the big words hanging on the palace gate, he was shocked from the bottom of his heart. Not only his eyes, but even his mouth opened wide!
