"Jiaojiao, I love you."

I love her so much that I can give my life to her.

As long as the people around him are Harigana, he will be happy with even the most ordinary life, whether in the palace or in the countryside.

After saying that, he leaned over and kissed her red lips, wanting to prove with his actions that he loved her very much.

Li Dequan was a little shocked when he heard the noise inside.

Could it be that the emperor secretly took some tonic pills without his knowledge?

I just made such a fuss last night, and today I haven’t even gotten out of bed yet, and I’ve been pinned down again.

If things continue like this, will the emperor's body be drained in a few years?

Thinking that Kangxi was not even thirty years old and his night life had already started to become disharmonious, Li Dequan was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat.

She shook her head and decided to discuss it with Madam Hu when she got back. She asked the small kitchen to prepare more nourishing soups for the emperor in the future.

Two hours later, in the swaying carriage, Harigana yawned and nestled in Kangxi's arms.

"Xuanye, you have to take care of yourself."

Kangxi is in a good mood now, with a smile on his face.

So even though he heard Harigana saying that he was old, he didn't feel unhappy at all.

Compared to the little girl in his arms, he is indeed older. There is nothing to refute, right?

"No, stop laughing."

Harigana really couldn't stand his smile and found it horrifying.

Although I used to smile like this, I would be more restrained at that time and not show all eight teeth like I do now.

"Jiaojiao, I'm happy. I'm so happy that I can't even laugh."

His tone was full of resentment, but Kangxi was now even more terrified.

What kind of good person would say such sad words with a smile on his face?

"Laugh, laugh, I'll be confused for a while."

I moved around, found a comfortable position, closed my eyes and took a nap.

It would take another half an hour to reach the Duke's Mansion, so she needed to have a good rest.

I don’t know what kind of stimulants Kangxi took. He could do it so many times in a row and still be so refreshed.

It’s not fair, it’s really not fair!

Kangxi watched her close her eyes, holding her hands and patting them gently.

In a short while, the person who wanted to take a nap was coaxed to sleep.

When she woke up again, although she was still in Kangxi's arms, she was not in a carriage, but in the inner hall of the Duke's Mansion.

"Xuan Ye!"

Sitting up straight, watching him leisurely reviewing memorials, I didn't know whether to say that Kangxi was shameless or blame myself for sleeping so soundly.

Her face was completely gone.

"Jiaojiao, do you want to drink some water? Are you hungry? Are you feeling unwell? Dinner is still half an hour away, don't worry."

What Harigana wanted to say was silenced by his series of concerns.

Also, why is he speaking so softly now?

Although in the past, Kangxi would only yell at her if she angered him, he would always speak very gently.

But the gentleness this time is completely different from the gentleness before.

Looking at the dazed look in his arms, Kangxi's heart softened.

Such a well-behaved person should be pampered and loved like this.

"Jiaojiao, what's wrong? Huh?"

Harigana shuddered unconsciously.

The last word "hmm" always sounds like a hook.

"Why didn't you wake me up?"

Resisting the urge to talk to him, he forcefully changed the subject.

"Jiaojiao, I called you, seriously, Dulan can testify.

But you said you were sleepy and wanted to sleep for a while, so I carried you down here."

Kangxi spoke very seriously and also mentioned Dulan. Even though Harigana was doubtful, he could only believe him temporarily.

"It's so embarrassing. People will laugh at me."

Thinking of everyone's eyes just now, Kangxi's ears turned a little red.

It’s just that Harigana was in his arms and didn’t see it.

When she later thought about what happened today and asked Du Lan about it, the words "social death" lingered in her mind for a long time.

After talking for a while, seeing that the time was almost up, he washed up and asked someone to change into clean clothes, then walked towards the front yard.

The red color that filled the Duke's mansion at this moment was no less striking than that of the wedding that day.

Fortunately, there were no outsiders. Apart from the Sai Enjia couple and the Queen Mother, there were only Prince Kang and Prince Yu and their families.

As for the children, they had already started eating in the side hall.

The main seats naturally belonged to Kangxi and Harigana. Originally, the Queen Mother was to sit in the middle, but she said that she was not the birthday girl and did not dare to sit.

If the Queen Mother doesn't sit, it's even less likely that Baoliri and Sainjia will sit.

In the end, it was Harigana who decided today's position.

Kangxi sat in the middle, with Harigana on his right, followed by Saienjia, Baoliri, Prince Kang, Prince Yu, Prince Yu's wife, Prince Kang's wife, and finally the Empress Dowager.

The Empress Dowager was seated on the left hand side of Kangxi, which was the most honorable position besides the main seat.

Logically speaking, this should not be done, as the two wives sit in higher positions than the two princes.

The two men nervously wanted to change seats, but seeing how steadily Sainjia sat, and Prince Kang and Prince Yu also thought it was a good idea to sit like that, the current situation became a reality.

"Eji, thank you."

Looking at the table full of dishes, all of them were what Harigana and Kangxi talked about that day. The most eye-catching one was the candied milk tofu.

Sai Enjia chuckled: "You are my daughter, isn't it normal for Eji to do this?"

In fact, Harigana knew that Sai Njia would be very tired. After all, it was not easy to prepare more than a dozen dishes.

But he also knew her uneasiness and worries. After all, it was because of her identity that she was able to settle in the capital.

So, I want to take this opportunity to make her feel that she is needed and useful, rather than just dependent on me.

Look, there is visibly joy on Sainjia's face.

"Eji, thank you too."

Looking at the dish on the table, Harigana could tell at a glance that it was made by the Queen Mother.

"Oh, you still remember?"

The Queen Mother joked that she had only done it once at Mulan Paddock, and she didn't expect that she could actually see it.

Today, I saw Sainjia busying around and made one on a whim.

Compared with the table full of dishes prepared by Sainjia, hers was simply insignificant.

"Of course I remember this. This is made by the Empress Dowager. Ordinary people can't eat it."

Harigana heard the Queen Mother's joke and retorted with a chuckle.

This was how the two of them got along with each other, and it stunned the two ladies.

The Queen Mother rolled her eyes at her and turned to look at Sai Njia: "Look at that little chatterbox."

Even though it was a complaint, anyone could see that it was love.

Sainjia smiled and wanted to reach out and touch her hair, but she gave up when she thought of the emperor's possessiveness.

"Let's have a meal."

The atmosphere was just right, Kangxi said, then picked up a dish and put it on Harigana's plate: "Eat it."
