Harigana sat up drowsily, her consciousness slowly returning. But she was still very sleepy, her head nodding.
Kangxi had no choice but to hold the girl in his arms and coax her to sleep. After making sure that she was asleep, he gently lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked outside.
"Aunt Suma, does the Empress Dowager want to talk to me about something?"
In fact, according to Kangxi's custom, Su Malagu would definitely be called into the carriage! But now Harigana was lying on his lap, and this scene could not be seen by outsiders under any circumstances. It was not that Kangxi thought it was inappropriate, but he was afraid of bringing trouble to Harigana.
It is better to have less trouble than more. Although he can protect Harigana, he can live a good life, so why should he cause trouble?
Su Malagu was indeed very surprised. The dragon chariot was very high, so Su Malagu could only tilt her neck back to talk to Kangxi.
"Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you! To answer your question, the Empress Dowager saw the Imperial Physician rushing over and sent me over to see if the Emperor was unwell!"
Although Kangxi did not want to deceive Bumbutai, due to the previous unhappy partings and the fact that the Empress Dowager did not like Harigana, he decided not to tell anyone, including the Empress Dowager.
Although he knew that the Empress Dowager would not touch her own offspring, he privately did not want anyone to know that Harigana was pregnant. At least he must not reveal any of it before returning to the palace.
"Aunt Suma, I'm fine! I just felt a little uncomfortable, and Concubine Chen was worried, so she asked the imperial physician to come and check my pulse. Please tell my grandmother and me that I'm fine!"
Su Malagu was even more puzzled. If the Emperor was fine, why did Doctor Zhao have such an expression just now? Did she misunderstand, or was there something the Emperor wanted to hide from the Grand Empress Dowager?
But none of this had anything to do with her. She was just a servant, and having conveyed the message exactly as it was meant to be was her mission accomplished. As for the other deeper matters, let the Empress Dowager think about them carefully!
"Yes! I obey your command!"
Kangxi said no more, lowered the curtain, and began to fan Harigana with a fan. Although he valued Su Malagu very much, his last conversation outside the tent had made him value her less.
It can't be said that Su Malagu was bad, nor can it be said that Kangxi was too harsh, but each had his place and should perform his duties. Su Malagu was the Empress Dowager's person, and he was now the emperor, the master of the Qing Dynasty! Even the Empress Dowager had to look at his face, let alone a servant!
"You said Xuanye didn't let you go up?"
Bumbutai also felt that something was not right. If she said that she did not call them up because the woman from the Borchijin tribe was there, it would be too far-fetched!
"Yes, Grand Empress Dowager!"
Bumbutai's expression was deep. Suddenly, he looked at Sumalagu and asked, "Suma, is there any movement in the carriage?"
Su Malagu instantly understood what the Grand Empress Dowager meant. Her face flushed, but she still replied awkwardly, "Grand Empress Dowager, I didn't hear anything!"
Bumbutai regretted asking this question. Her idea was too scary. Even if the woman was beautiful, Xuanye was raised by her personally. How could she possibly do such a thing?
The long journey during this period of time has made her mind a little confused!
"That's enough! I'm glad Xuanye is okay!"
Bumbutai no longer hesitated and was about to return to her hometown. This time she wanted to feel the atmosphere of her hometown. Perhaps this was her last time to come back!
Thinking of this, the Empress Dowager began to recall her childhood life and the things she did in Huang Taiji's harem after she grew up, and completely forgot about Kangxi and Harigana.
Harigana slept extremely soundly. If Kangxi hadn't called her, she would probably have slept until noon the next day.
"Jiaojiao! Wake up, please! If you keep talking, I won't be able to sleep tonight. Besides, it's almost time for dinner, you can't go hungry!"
Kangxi's voice was very gentle, but Harigana really didn't want to get up. She turned over and buried her head in Kangxi's abdomen. The smell of ambergris was very strong, and she arched her back unconsciously.
"I can't get up, I'm not hungry, I can sleep!"
After answering, Harigana wanted to continue sleeping, but after he finished speaking, he always felt something was wrong, so he moved his head, trying to find a comfortable position.
"Jiaojiao!"
The veins on Kangxi's forehead bulged, and the fan in his hand had been deformed by him. Seeing the culprit's clueless look, he was about to pick her up, but unexpectedly, she sat up directly!
"Jiaojiao, be careful with your stomach!"
Now Kangxi no longer had the heart to tease Harigana. He reached out to support her, fearing that she would hurt her waist and stomach.
Harigana's stomach and waist were fine, but the movement was too large, and the wound on her back must have been stretched. She frowned slightly, wanting to say it was fine, but then she heard Kangxi anxiously ask her, "Jiaojiao! Does the wound on your back hurt? Let me take a look!"
After Kangxi finished speaking, he wanted to take off Harigana's clothes. In just a short while, two buttons had been opened!
"It's okay, it's okay! No need to look, I promise it's okay!"
Harigana held Kangxi's hand. They were now in the carriage. If he wanted to see her back, he would have to take off his outer clothes. How could she accept this!
Kangxi was worried, but he couldn't go against Harigana, otherwise if the pregnant woman got angry, it would be really troublesome.
"Are you sure you're okay?"
Harigana nodded quickly, and Kangxi could only help her button her clothes again. Kangxi had calmed down by then, but the two of them tacitly agreed not to mention the embarrassing incident.
At night, Harigana did as she said. After eating and drinking, she fell asleep quickly! Kangxi was left alone sitting by the bed, watching Harigana sleeping soundly and thinking about something.
This morning, the Imperial Astronomical Observatory announced that a capable person was indeed approaching him during their nighttime observations of the celestial phenomena. They also told him to let nature take its course and not to specifically seek that person out. The person would naturally come to him and help him. The Imperial Astronomical Observatory even said, "This person will be beneficial to the development of the country!"
Soon after, Harigana became pregnant and wanted a boy!
He had suspected that the one in Harigana's belly was the capable man the Imperial Astronomical Observatory had mentioned, but if it was really him, he would have to wait at least a dozen years. Moreover, what would Yinreng do then?
