Harigana didn't know what was going on. She was obviously a little resistant to Kangxi's desire to do that thing before, but now she actually wanted Kangxi too!

[No, no! I have to ask Aunt Su quietly tonight if she is sick.]

Kangxi noticed the little shaking of her head and thought that she did not agree to the one-year period. Although he was very happy that Harigana was thinking about him, the most important thing was Xiao Jiaojiao's body.

"Jiaojiao, I didn't do that myself, so how could I possibly do those things when you're like this? Don't let your imagination run wild, just listen to me! You're only two months old now, so you'll need at least two months to raise the baby after you give birth!"

Kangxi's words stunned Harigana, but fortunately Kangxi couldn't see her expression. When Harigana had pornographic thoughts in her mind, she buried her head in his chest.

But she never expected that a small shake of her head would cause him to misunderstand like that!

I don’t know if it was because of the little thoughts in his heart or because Kangxi was shy, but Harigana turned red all over, and even Kangxi who was holding him felt the warmth.

"Jiaojiao!"

Kangxi wanted to say something, but Harigana covered his mouth with her hand and looked at him fiercely, not allowing him to continue.

"Stop talking, I'm angry!"

Kangxi looked at her blushing cheeks, nodded repeatedly, and promised that he would not say anything more!

Harigana let go of his hand, broke free from his embrace, turned around and sat aside.

For some reason, Kangxi always felt that time passed quickly as long as he was with Harigana. Looking at the girl walking beside him, his love for her grew even stronger.

Only now did he realize that Harigana had followed him back to the palace and would be his from now on. This wasn't just wishful thinking on his part, but a mutual affection.

Kangxi took Harigana to the Cining Palace first. The Empress Dowager had already arrived at the Grand Empress Dowager's place waiting for Kangxi.

At this time, the Hall of Supreme Harmony was already filled with officials and concubines of low rank. Even Uya and Guo Luoluo had already sat in their seats.

Nara looked at the five tables above with mixed feelings.

She was the mother of the eldest prince and an elder in Kangxi's residence. But after so many years, she was still a small concubine.

If it were before, she wouldn't feel as bad as she does now. After all, Tong Jia's foundation is there, and she wouldn't think it's a big deal even if she is promoted to queen in the future.

But she had seen that girl from the Borchijin tribe from afar today. Although she was very beautiful, her position was too high. She was actually a noble concubine. And she was a noble concubine with a title.

She was filled with mixed feelings, but fortunately, the eldest prince had returned to the palace. As long as he could make some progress in the future and had the opportunity to ascend to a high position, she would be the empress dowager. Thinking of this, she felt much better.

But what she didn't know was that Kangxi was not like Huang Taiji and Shunzhi, and he had a long political career ahead of him. Her mother, the Empress Dowager, was afraid that her wish would never be fulfilled in this lifetime.

......

Bumbutai watched Kangxi bring Harigana to pick her up again. Although she was still very angry, she felt that this was something only an Aisin-Gioro man would do.

She called out to Harigana to pay her respects, but until she met Tong Jia and Yinreng who had been waiting for her on the official road, she didn't even glance at Harigana.

Harigana had no reaction to the Empress Dowager's actions. She didn't care about the fact that she only had a few years left to live. Most importantly, if the Empress Dowager had always maintained this attitude, she would have saved herself a lot of trouble.

However, she would still be wary of the Empress Dowager. What was recorded in history books was definitely not groundless.

"The Emperor has arrived! His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has arrived! The Grand Empress Dowager has arrived! The Empress Dowager has arrived! The Imperial Concubine Chen has arrived! The Imperial Concubine Tongjia has arrived!"

The young eunuch stood at the door of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and a long announcement made everyone outside stand up and kneel on the ground to pay their respects and kowtow.

"Long live the Emperor! May His Royal Highness the Crown Prince live a thousand years! May the Grand Empress Dowager live a thousand years! May the Empress Dowager live a thousand years! May the Imperial Concubine Chen live auspiciously! May the Imperial Concubine Tong live auspiciously!"

After a series of greetings, Kangxi and his entourage had already reached the top seat. First, they helped the Grand Empress Dowager to her seat, followed by the Empress Dowager. Kangxi subconsciously wanted to help Harigana sit down, but seeing the people kneeling below, he could only signal Hu Ma to serve her well.

After everyone sat down, Li Dequan said sharply, "Stand up!" Harigana almost couldn't help but look at her.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After everyone was seated, the banquet officially began. Kangxi didn't say much, just a few words and then picked up his chopsticks.

"My Lady, you can't eat too much of this!"

The dish in front of Harigana was similar to that in front of Kangxi, but the people in the Imperial Household Department did not know that Harigana was pregnant, so there was no taboo on the food.

However, it was Kangxi who assigned Madam Hu to Li Dequan, so it was impossible not to tell her about the pregnancy.

"Okay! I won't eat anymore!"

Harigana didn't know much about these things, so if Aunt Hu said she couldn't eat them, then she didn't have to. But looking at those colorful leaves, she was indeed a little greedy.

Although Tong Jia didn't want to care about Harigana, she sat above her and could see Harigana's every move as long as she looked up. Although Madam Hu's words were very obscure, Tong Jia still felt something was wrong.

The officials who stayed in the capital finally saw the imperial concubine who could make the emperor go to great lengths to renovate the Jiaotai Palace! For a moment, Harigana felt the gazes of many people.

"emperor!"

The Empress Dowager suddenly called Kangxi, who turned around, thinking that she wanted to have a drink with him, but she said, "I want to hear Manju sing. I feel a little uncomfortable returning to the capital so suddenly!"

Kangxi's face almost collapsed. He had already said that, but the Empress Dowager still insisted on her own way.

"Li Dequan, go get that Borjigit lady to come and entertain the Empress Dowager!"

Kangxi spoke softly, barely audible to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager beside him. Even Harigana, who sat beside him, barely caught a sliver of his words.

"Yes! I'll go right away!"

The Empress Dowager was unhappy, and even she felt her face burning.

However, Harigana felt that all this should have nothing to do with her, but after a while she saw a girl following Li Dequan and walking to the middle of the hall.

"I pay my respects to the Emperor and the Empress Dowager!"
