Kangxi didn't understand why the Empress Dowager wanted him to linger among women.
"Grandmother, Xuanye has always respected you, and he will never forget your kindness to him. Because he remembers your kindness, he has always listened to you and accepted many Mongolian concubines according to your wishes, hoping to reassure you.
Do you dare to say that you are stopping me because you are afraid that Xuanye will become a tyrant? No, you are just afraid that Xuanye will no longer take care of you Borjigit people and will no longer have any relationship with Khorchin.
But Empress Dowager, Xuanye has said many times that as long as Xuanye is alive, Khorchin will be protected. Moreover, Khorchin is not as fragile as you think. They are also very powerful and do not need to use women to maintain relationships.
But what about you? You didn't trust Xuanye, and you repeatedly brought in those Mongolian concubines for Xuanye.
Don't you see those Mongolian concubines you sent in? Their muscles are even stronger than Xuanye's. It's hard to find one that's decent, and her temperament is particularly tough."
(It's just a setting, don't criticize, don't criticize, don't criticize! Kangxi was just under 30 years old at that time, so his words and deeds were not as mature as they were later.)
Now that things had come to this, he didn't care at all and said everything that was in his heart.
"Grandmother, I am the emperor! My food, clothing, and daily necessities, including women, should be the best and what I like! Because I am the Son of Heaven!"
Kangxi's voice became increasingly low. If the incident with Harigana was a trigger, then the oppression of Bumbutai over the years was the huge thunder. Once the trigger was alight, the thunder would naturally explode.
"Grandmother, I am already an adult, and the world is at peace now. Why do you insist on having your own way, without consulting Korchin or me, and ruining so many daughters just for your so-called marriage?"
The Empress Dowager was so shocked by Kangxi's words that she was speechless. She even had some doubts as to whether she had done something wrong!
But then, she immediately suppressed the little thought in her heart.
"Xuanye, I never thought you harbored such deep resentment towards me. A woman from the Borchijin tribe actually made an emperor say such words!"
If Harigana were here, he would definitely say: This is the typical example of making trouble without reason and not giving in even when you are right!
Kangxi suddenly felt powerless. No matter what he said, the Empress Dowager would always bring it up with Harigana.
"Grandmother, Xuanye begs you to please stop interfering in Xuanye's bedroom affairs!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the three people present were speechless, and even the Empress Dowager didn't know what to say.
"Xuanye, go back first!"
The Queen Mother could only persuade them again. Although there were only three of them in the bedroom, if they were allowed to continue talking, who knows what would happen.
Bumbutai was so angry that she almost fainted, but before she could move, Li Dequan came in and reported, "Your Majesty, the Imperial Concubine has fainted!"
Kangxi quickly turned around and ran away. The Empress Dowager was worried because she only found out yesterday that Harigana was pregnant.
Only the Empress Dowager felt a little excited. If the child died this time, she,
[No, no, no! How could I curse Xuanye's child!]
The Empress Dowager was shocked. Since when did she want to take the child's life?
Kangxi did not stop and ran back to Qingxi Palace in one breath. He did not even glance at the people kneeling outside to pay their respects and strode in.
"Jiaojiao!"
Looking at Harigana lying on the bed with a pale face, he stepped forward, held her hand, and hurriedly asked the imperial physician, "How is the imperial concubine?"
Doctor Zhao wiped his forehead, trembling with fear. The Empress's pulse seemed gentle, and he didn't notice anything unusual. But if he really answered like that, his life might be over!
Thinking of what Leo had just said on the way here, he made up his mind.
"Your Majesty, the Queen's body has not fully recovered from her last injury, and she also has an underlying illness. She must have fainted because of the shock she received just now. She will wake up after drinking a dose of medicine, but the Queen needs to rest and must not be stimulated again, otherwise it will harm the Dragonborn!"
Kangxi's heart sank. He didn't expect Harigana to be so weak. Thinking about how he had tormented her for most of the night last night, he felt even more guilty.
"Go!"
Doctor Zhao was afraid that Kangxi would ask more questions, so after hearing him being asked to leave, he immediately picked up the medicine box and left, completely unlike the previous times when he had packed up before leaving.
Fortunately, Kangxi believed in what Doctor Zhao said. If he had any doubts and asked another doctor to come, his lie might have been exposed.
But we can't think like that. I think they would say so too. This is the first principle of saving lives as an imperial doctor.
After a while, the medicine was prepared and served. Kangxi picked up Harigana and slowly fed her the medicine.
Harigana was in the fog again. This time she sat directly on the ground and closed her eyes to rest. She didn't know if it was a psychological effect, but she fell asleep comfortably after a while.
When Kangxi learned that the imperial physician had been summoned to Qingxi Palace, everyone in the palace knew about it!
Some people were secretly happy, some were disappointed, and more were cursing.
Those who were secretly delighted thought that since Harigana was sick and could not serve the emperor in bed, this was their chance!
Most of the disappointed people were Mongolian concubines. They were still thinking about what kind of gifts to prepare to visit her so as to get closer to her, but she just collapsed.
Do they think that such a concubine can really be their support?
Those who were cursed included several high-ranking concubines such as Tong Jia and Guo Luoluo, as well as the concubines who went on the frontier patrol with them and those who came back with them.
They hope that Harigana will never wake up, so that the harem can be peaceful and everything can return to the way it was before!
Regardless, it was already noon when Harigana woke up refreshed! Kangxi stayed by her side the entire time, even asking Li Dequan to take memorials to the Qingxi Palace for review.
"Jiaojiao!"
Although Kangxi was reviewing memorials, he was distracted by looking at Harigana. So the moment she woke up, he walked over to her and took her hand and put it to his lips.
"Xuanye! What's wrong?"
After asking this question, Harigana realized that she seemed to have fallen asleep before getting off the dragon chariot. Was it because of this incident that scared Kangxi?
"Jiaojiao, do you feel any discomfort? Can you let the imperial physician come in and take your pulse?"
Although Kangxi saw that Harigana's complexion had recovered a lot, he was still worried.
Harigana actually didn't know why she suddenly fell asleep. She seemed to smell something unusual.
"Xuanye, I'm fine! Sorry for making you worry!"
She first tried to comfort Kangxi and tried to sit up, but he pushed her back down.
