Chapter 419 Step by Step Shocking Jade Tan 41
"What? You don't want me to come back?" Kangxi raised his eyebrows, with a hint of teasing in his tone.
"I dare not." Yu Tan quickly shook her head, her cheeks slightly flushed.
"I announced in the court today that this year's draft is cancelled." Kangxi rested his chin on Yutan's shoulder and said softly.
Kangxi looked at Yutan's clear eyes, and his heart was warmed. He gently stroked Yutan's cheek and said softly: "It's nothing, but I feel that having you in the harem is enough."
Yu Tan was stunned. She didn't expect Kangxi to say such a thing. He was the emperor, with three thousand beauties in his harem, but he said that having her alone was enough?
"Your Majesty..." Yu Tan's voice was a little choked, and he felt mixed emotions.
She had thought about Kangxi's unusual feelings for her, but she had never thought that he would give up the entire harem for her.
"Your Majesty..." Yu Tan raised her head, her eyes sparkling, reflecting Kangxi's deep pupils.
"You, do you really think so?"
"When have I ever lied to you?" Kangxi chuckled, and his slender fingers gently stroked Yu Tan's cheek, with a barely perceptible hint of arrogance in his tone.
"You are my woman, in this life, the next life, and all eternity!"
(System Xiao Yuanzi: Yes in this life, but not necessarily in the next life, your eldest son and eldest grandson are still waiting in line...)
Yu Tan's heart seemed to skip a beat, and a tingling sensation spread from the place where Kangxi touched her to her entire body. She had never heard such straightforward love words, and she had never thought that such love words would come from the mouth of an emperor who was so high and mighty.
"Your Majesty..." Yu Tan's voice was tearful, and the tears in her eyes were like pearls that had broken off the string, sliding down one by one and wetting the collar of Kangxi's shirt.
Kangxi looked at Yutan, who was crying in his arms, and felt pity for her. He gently wiped the tears from her cheeks and said softly, "Silly girl, why are you crying? I am speaking from the heart."
"But, but there are so many concubines in the harem..." Yu Tan said while choking. She knew how many eyes were staring at Kangxi in the harem, and she didn't want to become the target of public criticism.
"How can those vulgar women compare with you?" Kangxi interrupted her with a hint of disdain in his tone.
"In my eyes, they are not even as valuable as one of your fingers."
"Your Majesty..." Yu Tan was touched, yet a little worried.
"If you say that, aren't you afraid that I will become arrogant because of my favor?"
"I just like the way you become arrogant because of your favor." Kangxi smiled evilly and lowered his head to kiss Yutan's lips.
His kiss was overbearing and passionate, with an undeniable possessiveness. Yu Tan was almost unable to breathe due to his kiss, but she did not resist at all, but could not help but respond to his passion.
(System Xiao Yuanzi: Wow, host, your man has finally come to his senses! I'll eat this dog food!)
"Your Majesty, it's still daytime..." Yu Tan shyly pushed Kangxi, her voice as soft as a mosquito.
"I can't wait any longer..."
(System Xiao Yuanzi: Hehehe, the following scene is too inappropriate for children, I will not broadcast it live.)
……
When the emperor is angry, millions of corpses will be killed and blood will flow for thousands of miles.
Although it is still a long way from here, Kangxi is still the man of his word.
Those ministers had to send their daughters who were to be selected for the imperial selection to the palace as slaves. Looking at the emperor's attitude towards the imperial concubine, it was impossible for him to allow others to enjoy his favor. Could it be that their own daughters had to remain widows?
Although she could leave the palace at the age of 25, she would have passed the best marriageable age by then...
No matter what they thought, their daughter had to enter the palace.
Maertai Ruoxi, who was far away in the Eighth Master's Mansion, was depressed for a while after experiencing what happened to Yin?. In the end, she had no choice but to accept her fate and wait to enter the palace.
During this period, the relationship between her and her brother-in-law Yinsi became very ambiguous.
The Forbidden City, with its red walls, yellow tiles, carved beams and painted buildings, displays the royal majesty everywhere.
Maertai Ruoxi followed the other ladies into the majestic gate, feeling mixed emotions. She knew that this step might mean the end of her life.
Unlike other concubines who yearn for their future lives, Ruoxi is more confused and worried. She knows the cruelty of the harem, and she knows that she is just a pawn of the family and has no choice.
"Sister Ruoxi, what's wrong with you? Why do you look unhappy?" A crisp voice interrupted Ruoxi's thoughts.
The person in front of her was innocent and full of beautiful fantasies about palace life, and was not aware of Ruoxi's worries at all.
Ruoxi forced a smile and said, "It's nothing. I just feel a little nervous since I just entered the palace for the first time."
Thanks to the help of Concubine De and Concubine Hui, Maertai Ruoxi was sent to the Qianqing Palace to be a tea-serving maid.
The job of serving tea is neither difficult nor easy, especially in the Qianqing Palace, where one could get into trouble if one is not careful.
In the Qianqing Palace, Kangxi was reviewing memorials, and Yutan stood quietly beside him, grinding ink for him.
"Your Majesty, you have been busy for the entire morning. Please have some tea and take a rest." Yu Tan said softly, handing a cup of steaming hot tea to Kangxi.
Kangxi took the teacup and took a sip, his eyes full of doting: "You still understand my thoughts best."
Ruoxi held the tea tray carefully, lowered her head, and tried her best to reduce her presence.
Ruoxi followed the other palace maids in, lowered her head and placed the tea tray in her hand on the table, then quietly stepped aside.
"Raise your head." Kangxi's voice, with a hint of majesty, echoed in the empty hall.
Kangxi completely ignored the gazes of others and held Yutan to sit on his lap. Yutan let out a coquettish cry, then picked up the memorial on the table and read it to Kangxi word by word.
Kangxi would occasionally bend down to kiss the top of Yutan's head, or pinch her white and tender fingers, showing his tenderness and affection.
This scene left Ruoxi dumbfounded.
Although she had heard of some romantic affairs before, she had never seen such bold and straightforward favor. Moreover, the one being favored was a palace maid.
Yu Tan's voice was soft and pleasant, like the sound of a yellow oriole singing in a valley, yet with a hint of the soft Wu dialect of a Jiangnan girl, which made Kangxi's heart wander.
He simply put down the red brush in his hand, hugged Yu Tan tighter, rested his chin on her shoulder, and greedily sniffed the faint fragrance on her body.
"Your Majesty, you..." Yu Tan felt a little itchy due to Kangxi's intimate behavior and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Shh..." Kangxi gently pressed Yu Tan's lips with his fingers, his eyes full of confusion.
Ruoxi was horrified as she watched from the side. She knew very well that serving the emperor was like serving a tiger. Moreover, Kangxi was now over 50 years old and no longer impulsive.
But his love for Yu Tan was like being possessed by a demon. He had no scruples, even a little... crazy?
