Chapter 1401

~6 min read 1,030 words

While the two women were letting their imaginations run wild.

The sound of the door being pushed open rang out.

They saw Kangxi, whose complexion was dark, walk in.

The Tongjia clan and the little Concubine Tong hurriedly bowed.

Compared to the naive little Concubine Tong, the Tongjia clan's mood was extremely uneasy.

Not because of the previous wild thoughts.

But because she could see at a glance that Kangxi was in an extremely bad mood.

It was only natural for Kangxi to be in a bad mood.

After all, what man would be willing to send his own woman with his own hands.

And even have to persuade her personally.

This was undoubtedly a great humiliation for a man.

Especially since this man was an emperor who was the supreme ruler of a country.

Kangxi looked at the Tongjia clan, whom he had favored quite a bit in the past, and his mood became even more complicated.

Although the Tongjia clan had been in the palace for several years, she was only in her early twenties.

It was the most beautiful age for a woman.

She was beautiful, dignified, and elegant, and her exquisite and luxurious clothing set off her graceful figure.

The little Concubine Tong was even younger.

A sixteen-year-old girl, youthful and romantic, delicate and lovely, with fair skin and beautiful features, and a pair of beautiful eyes that were lively and gentle.

In terms of appearance alone, she was even better than the Tongjia clan.

Kangxi only felt more and more heartbroken.

If it weren't for Wutian, he would definitely have fallen in love with the little Concubine Tong.

However, now he had to bear the pain of parting with his love.

He recalled the scene before entering the door.

He had humbly requested Wutian to wait for him to persuade the two women before letting him in.

After all, persuading the two women in front of Wutian was not only more difficult but also more humiliating.

However, what surprised him was.

Wutian did not make things difficult for him on this matter.

He easily agreed to his request.

This made Kangxi, who had suffered all kinds of humiliation, even feel a trace of gratitude in his heart.

Although the degree of gratitude in Kangxi's heart was not great.

But for Gu Hanyuan, it was a good sign.

He grasped the scale of pressuring Kangxi just right.

Some insignificant concessions could reduce Kangxi's resistance.

Just like now.

No matter how heartbroken Kangxi was, he tried his best to persuade the two women.

Not long after.

Kangxi walked out with a gloomy face.

Vague sobbing could still be heard from behind him.

Kangxi looked at Wutian, who was acting casually, as if he didn't care at all whether the two women would be persuaded.

He took a deep breath and said:

"Your Excellency Wutian, you may enter.? ¢?

Every word he said made his heart ache a little more.

But things had reached this point, and it was too late to regret.

Gu Hanyuan feigned surprise and said:

"Your Majesty persuaded them so quickly? It seems they love Your Majesty deeply."

Upon hearing this, Kangxi's breathing stalled.

His complexion became even gloomier.

It took a while for him to recover.

He feigned indifference and said:

"I still have government affairs to attend to, Your Excellency Wutian, please feel free."

After saying that, he left leisurely, as if he didn't care what fate would befall the two women next.

However, his tightly clenched fists exposed his mood.

Gu Hanyuan looked playfully at Kangxi's departing back.

This ability to endure what ordinary people cannot endure was indeed extraordinary.

He also knew that Kangxi would definitely scheme against him in the future.

But so what?

If Kangxi falls behind by one step, he will fall behind by every step.

One wrong step, and every step is wrong.

From the moment Kangxi first conceded and compromised, the outcome had already been determined.

Gu Hanyuan did not pay any more attention to Kangxi.

He pushed the door open and entered indifferently.

He saw the Tongjia clan and the little Concubine Tong embracing and crying.

The two women looked at Gu Hanyuan, whose aura was gloomy and terrifying, with some fear.

The little Concubine Tong hid fearfully behind the Tongjia clan.

The Tongjia clan's eyes, however, were full of hatred.

Not just hatred for Gu Hanyuan.

But even more hatred for the ruthless Kangxi.

She recalled the scene at that time.

She had already felt that something was wrong when she heard Kangxi's request.

"Two beloved concubines, I have a request."

The Tongjia clan said in fear and trepidation:

"Your Majesty, you are too serious. If there is anything you need our sisters to do, just order it."

Kangxi said solemnly:

"There is a man outside the door named Wutian, who is my ally and is extremely important to me. It even concerns my throne and the safety of my life."

The Tongjia clan asked in shock:

"Your Majesty is the Emperor of the Qing Guo, who would dare to endanger Your Majesty's life?"

Kangxi said in a deep voice:

"Beloved concubines do not know, I currently seem to be sitting on the throne and am the ruler of a country, but in reality, my situation is worrying, and I have to seek help from Wutian. So I need the help of my two beloved concubines."

Upon hearing this, the Tongjia clan immediately had an ominous premonition.

She said nervously:

"I am shallow in knowledge and worry that I cannot help Your Majesty."

She indeed had the ambition to become Empress.

If she could help Kangxi, her status would inevitably rise, and she would be valued more.

But the Tongjia clan was not stupid.

Kangxi spoke so seriously, what he wanted them to help with would absolutely not be a small matter.

A woman's intuition made her subconsciously feel that she could not agree.

However, Kangxi had already made up his mind.

Since he had made a decision, he would not be hesitant anymore.

He comforted her warmly:

"Beloved concubine, don't worry, although this matter is a bit difficult, it is easy to do."
