Chapter 1438

Gu Hanyuan, dressed as Wutian, appeared in front of the two.

Kangxi's face was gloomy, and he didn't say a word.

Hesheli subconsciously blocked in front of Kangxi.

She shouted and asked sternly:

"Who are you? How dare you trespass into the Imperial Study!"

Gu Hanyuan looked somewhat surprised at Hesheli, who was blocking in front of Kangxi with fear but firmness.

Her feelings for Kangxi were evident.

Even Kangxi's expression softened a bit upon seeing this.

Gu Hanyuan's gaze, however, was filled with joyful light.

The more deeply affectionate and righteous she was, the greater his interest in Hesheli became.

Gu Hanyuan said gracefully:

"Empress, rest assured. I am Wutian, and I have a cooperative relationship with His Majesty, I won't hurt His Majesty."

Hesheli's energy had been tied up by her young son recently, and she knew very little about Wutian.

Her heart relaxed slightly upon hearing this, but she didn't relax her vigilance.

After all, Wutian's aura was too cold and dangerous.

Kangxi stood up and asked in a deep voice:

"What brings Wutian here at this time?"

Gu Hanyuan said subtly:

"I originally intended to discuss some matters with His Majesty, but I didn't expect to have an unexpected harvest."

He said playfully while Kangxi's face grew increasingly ugly:

"I have long heard that the Empress is beautiful and has a country-toppling appearance. Seeing her today, the reputation is well-deserved. His Majesty is truly blessed."

Gu Hanyuan's words had the suspicion of excessive flattery.

But the reaction it caused was huge.

Not to mention Kangxi's blackened face.

Hesheli's pretty face flushed red.

Her willow eyebrows stood up, and she shouted with a face full of anger:

"々. Rude person!"

It was not that one couldn't praise the Empress in front of the Emperor.

But one shouldn't praise her beauty.

Not only was it very rude, but it could even be called molestation.

Especially when it was in front of Kangxi.

When had Hesheli ever encountered such a thing.

Although she was gentle and elegant, she wasn't a wooden person.

At this moment, she was naturally furious.

Gu Hanyuan said indifferently:

"This is my heartfelt praise, how is it rude? Do I have to go against my heart and say the Empress is not good-looking?"

Gu Hanyuan's sophistry made Hesheli tremble with anger.

"You..."

"Empress, step down."

Kangxi suddenly spoke up to interrupt Hesheli's words.

Hesheli said in astonishment:

"Your Majesty?"

Kangxi's feigned calm expression could no longer hold up.

He had known that Wutian was eyeing Empress Hesheli.

Seeing Wutian teasing her with words now.

He regretted not letting Hesheli come to the Imperial Study.

His face was getting darker and darker.

He raised his voice and shouted sternly:

"Step down!"

Hesheli shook all over.

This was the first time Kangxi had been so fierce to her.

She was immediately filled with tears of grievance.

Hesheli lowered her eyes sadly, choking with sobs:

"Your concubine takes her leave. Your Majesty, rest earlier, don't stay up late."

Even though she was sad, Hesheli still cared about Kangxi.

Kangxi also felt quite regretful in his heart upon hearing this.

But what was more important at this moment was to let Hesheli leave.

Therefore, he could only watch her leave silently.

Hesheli wiped her tears sadly as she walked.

Her knees suddenly went numb.

She looked at the ground getting closer and closer in horror, and closed her eyes in fear.

However, the pain did not strike.

A teasing voice rang in her ears.

"Empress, be careful, if you bruise this flower-like face, I will be pained."
