I put the letter away, picked up the pen and paper beside me, wrote only two words, and finally folded it into a heart shape.

He took the white paper beside him and wrapped the letter, then went out and handed it to Li Dequan.

"Give it to the emperor if he has time. If he is busy, let him wait and don't delay the government affairs of the previous dynasty."

Li Dequan took it with both hands: "I obey your command."

In the imperial study, Kangxi's face became increasingly ugly as he held the case file presented by Nalan Mingzhu.

Every incident is shocking and unheard of.

Compared with the Hesheli clan, the guilt of the Uya clan is nothing but a drop in the bucket and not worth mentioning.

The Hesheli clan did everything, whether they were capable or not.

Not only that, it also revealed the secret of Empress Niuhuru's death.

"Mingzhu, do you know why I asked you to investigate the Hesheli clan?"

Kangxi put down the file and looked up at Nalan Mingzhu. The imperial majesty pressured him so much that he knelt on the ground and said, "Your Majesty, I don't know!"

Nalan Mingzhu really didn't know. Although he was loyal, there were many loyal people, so there was no need to use him.

It is also impossible that he did it on a whim or just happened to catch up. After all, there was still Zhang Ying at that time. He was a loyal minister and the emperor could hand it over to him.

"Mingzhu, get up first!"

Kangxi withdrew his gaze and looked at the files on the table. His voice was calm: "I know that you and Soetu have been fighting for more than ten years. Because of my indulgence of Hesheli, you feel resentful, right?"

Nalan Mingzhu, who had just stood up, this time really knelt on the ground with a plop: "Your Majesty, I dare not!

I have been by your side for so many years and I know the hardships you have gone through. I also know that a small move can affect the entire body.

Your Majesty, I do not like Soetu's smug look, but I also know that apart from his domineering nature, he is still very capable.

I have fought him for so many years simply because I despise his character, not because I doubt his ability."

Nalan Mingzhu's words were sincere, and they were words he had kept in his heart for many years, so they were absolutely true.

Kangxi walked over to him and helped him up with his own hands: "Mingzhu, there are not many people who grew up with me, and you are the one who knows me best."

Nalan Mingzhu was terrified, because he knew that the emperor's words were very dangerous. To put it more seriously, it was like trying to spy on the emperor's mind!

"Your Majesty, this humble official..."

Kangxi raised his hand to interrupt him mid-sentence: "Alright, it's just the two of us, no need to be so formal."

He pointed to a chair on the side and asked him to sit down, then he went back and sat on the dragon throne.

"This matter will continue to be handled by you. You don't need to do it secretly anymore. Instead, you need to do it publicly. Do you understand?"

Nalan Mingzhu pondered for a moment: "Your Majesty, do you want me to alert the enemy?"

Kangxi laughed out loud, pointing at him with admiration in his eyes: "I just said that you are the one who understands me best, and you still don't admit it."

As soon as Kangxi finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. Li Dequan came in and handed the letter to Kangxi.

"Your Majesty, Lord Suo'etu is outside asking for an audience."

Kangxi acted as if he hadn't heard it and carefully opened the letter, only to find a heart inside.

There was a flash of surprise in his eyes. Although he knew there must be words inside, he was reluctant to open it.

"What is the Imperial Concubine doing?"

The corner of Nalan Mingzhu's mouth twitched. He thought it was some secret letter and wondered if he needed to go out and avoid it, but it turned out like this.

And what was that expression on the emperor’s face just now?

It's unbearable to watch! It's simply unbearable to watch!

Fortunately, that queen was not some evil concubine who brought disaster to the country, and she was a straightforward and upright person.

Otherwise, judging by the emperor's behavior, the Qing Dynasty will sooner or later change hands.

"Your Majesty is in the small kitchen. When I went there, the chefs from the Qianqing Palace were standing behind her, and the chefs from the Qingxi Palace were preparing meals."

Kangxi wanted to go back and take a look, but the matter had not been dealt with yet. Helplessly, he could only open Harigana's letter and read the contents.

<Believe in You>

When the two words suddenly appeared, a smile instantly appeared on Kangxi's face.

"You go down first!"

Kangxi put the letter aside and waved his hand to signal Li Dequan to go out.

His Jiaojiao believed in him, so he didn't rush back and decided to deal with the Hesheli family's affairs first.

"Your Majesty, what about Lord Suo'etu?"

"Let him in!"

Kangxi pondered for a while and decided that since people were here, they should not leave.

"Yes! I obey your command!"

Harigana didn't know what happened in the imperial study. Anyway, when she saw that the person had finished making the cake and was about to go find Kangxi, the person had already returned.

"Jiaojiao!"

His voice was a little hoarse, and he exuded a very decadent aura.

Although the servants had already left, it was still in front of the small kitchen door and it was not convenient to talk.

"Xuanye, I asked someone to make you a cake. Come try it later."

Harigana held Kangxi's arm and turned to look at Dulan: "Dulan, do as I just told you. Be careful when you deliver it and don't break it." After that, she pulled him back to the inner hall.

"Jiaojiao, what are you giving me?"

She felt helpless and wanted to roll her eyes at the man who was still thinking of giving her something even though he was obviously feeling so uncomfortable.

"I just asked the chefs at Qingxi Palace to make some cakes and send some to the Grand Empress Dowager and the Queen Mother, and we'll keep some for ourselves."

Harigana said as she held up the food box in her hand and showed it to him. Kangxi took it and said, "Jiaojiao, do you want to come look for me?"

Duiyue told her that she would not ask any more questions when she wanted to send the cake, and that his Jiaojiao would handle these matters.

"Yeah! I wanted to come find you."

After he put the food box on the table, Harigana opened the lid and took out the cake from it and gave it to Kangxi: "Try it. I didn't attend your birthday, so I'm giving it to you now as a reward.

Happy birthday, Xuanye."

Kangxi took the small cake from her hand and put it aside, then held her in his arms, burying his head in her neck. It was just a gentle hug, without any other movements.

Harigana thought about it and thought that the thing that could make him so sad and was related to Mingzhu must be that the matter on the Hesheli side had been concluded.

However, Nalan Mingzhu is a resourceful person. Only a few hours have passed since last night. Excluding the night curfew, there are only three or four hours at most to check these things.
