Chapter 400 Step by Step Shocking Jade Tan 22

The news that Yutan moved into the Qianqing Palace was like thunder in spring, and it quickly exploded in the harem.

The concubines were submissive on the surface, but in their hearts they were jealous. Especially Consort De Uya, who found it even more difficult to accept this fact.

Defei was the biological mother of the Fourth Prince and the Fourteenth Prince. Since the death of Emperor Kangxi's Empress Xiaoyiren, Tong Jia, Defei has been in charge of the harem affairs and is a person who has the final say in the harem.

Now, an unknown little palace maid has suddenly become the emperor's bedmate and lives in the Qianqing Palace. How could she not be furious?

Concubine De Uya has always been famous in the harem for her "dignified and virtuous" character, but at this moment, her carefully maintained red nail polish was almost embedded in the flesh.

"A lowly palace maid is worthy of living in the Qianqing Palace?" She gritted her teeth, her tone full of undisguised jealousy and anger.

"Your Majesty, please calm down."

The senior palace maid beside him whispered, "The emperor is in high spirits now. If you go and cause trouble now, won't you be playing into someone's hands?"

"How can I swallow this humiliation!" Defei suddenly threw the teacup in her hand to the ground.

With a "pop", the fine blue and white porcelain suddenly broke into pieces, and the tea splashed everywhere, just like her mood at the moment.

"Your Majesty..." The palace maid fell to her knees in fear.

"You must think twice. His Majesty is very fond of the Imperial Concubine now. You must not act impulsively!"

"Favor?" Defei sneered.

"It's just a temporary infatuation! When the novelty wears off, he will naturally remember who is the real woman who has been with him for many years!"

"Your Majesty is right." The man agreed cautiously, "But the most taboo thing in the harem is jealousy. Your Majesty, please keep your composure."

Concubine De took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger in her heart. She stood up gracefully, holding the hand of the palace maid, and walked towards the dressing table step by step.

"Doesn't the emperor like her pure and lovely appearance?" Concubine De smiled coldly at the bronze mirror.

"I want to see who is the better one in the harem!"

Concubine De looked at herself in the mirror, her eyes and eyebrows revealed a fierce look. She just couldn't believe that a young girl who had just come out of the palace could turn the world upside down? The emperor liked innocence, so she pretended to be more innocent than Yutan!

Concubine De decided to "learn from" Yutan's successful experience.

She ordered people to find out about Yu Tan's preferences, from her clothing to her speech and behavior, every detail must be known clearly.

"Your Majesty, I have heard that the Imperial Concubine likes to wear plain and elegant clothes on weekdays and does not like to wear heavy makeup." The personal maid reported the news one by one.

Concubine De sat in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror carefully.

She was proud of her beauty and had always liked colorful clothes. But now, in order to win favor, she had to give up her favorite clothes and put on a plain moon-white Manchu dress.

"Your Majesty is naturally beautiful. Even without makeup, you are still stunningly stunning. Now that you are dressed like this, you look even more elegant and refined, like a lotus emerging from water." The palace maid took every opportunity to flatter her.

Concubine De raised her lips in satisfaction and ordered, "Go and get me the 'Dianjiang Lip' that I treasure and light it for me."

"Dianjiangchun" is rouge tributed from the palace. It is bright red in color. Normally, Concubine De is reluctant to use it, but today, in order to imitate Yutan, she doesn't care about the pain.

After dressing up, Concubine De began to imitate Yutan's words and deeds. She ordered the palace maids to find the poems and songs that Yutan liked to read every day, and studied them day and night, hoping to imitate Yutan's talented temperament.

After a few days, Defei felt that she had learned the essence of Yutan, and began to plan how to "accidentally meet" Kangxi so as to enlighten him.

On this day, Kangxi was going to take a walk in the Imperial Garden after handling government affairs. When Concubine De heard the news, she dressed up carefully, took a few palace maids with her, and deliberately "ran into" Kangxi on the road that must be passed through the Imperial Garden.

Kangxi was discussing with Yutan with great interest a newly cultivated peony. The peony had a unique color, layered petals, and a subtle and elegant fragrance, which Yutan loved very much.

"Your Majesty, this peony is so beautiful, how about we call it 'Jade-faced Hibiscus'?" Yu Tan smiled sweetly, her eyes moving around, even more beautiful than the peony.

Kangxi scratched her nose affectionately.

"You clever little devil, you just want to flatter yourself."

The two smiled at each other, and the air was filled with sweetness.

"I, my concubine, see you, Your Majesty."

A gentle voice broke the silence.

Concubine De was wearing a moon-white Manchu dress, with only a white jade hairpin inserted in her jet-black hair, and her face was lightly powdered, but...

The smile on Kangxi's face faded a little, and he said calmly: "No need to be polite."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Defei stood up slowly, her eyes glanced at Yutan intentionally or unintentionally. Seeing that she was wearing a light pink Manchu dress today, which made her look even more delicate and lovely, her jealousy intensified, but she remained calm and said softly, "I just passed by the Imperial Garden and smelled a strange fragrance from afar, so I thought of coming over to see what kind of flower was so fragrant. I didn't expect that it was the Emperor and the Imperial Concubine who were admiring the flowers here."

After saying that, she deliberately covered her mouth and nose with a handkerchief, pretending to be Xishi holding her heart, as if the fragrance of Yutan was too strong and made her feel uncomfortable.

"Sister, you are joking. I don't have any scent on me. Maybe the fragrance of the flowers in the Imperial Garden is too strong. If you are not used to it, I will take you for a walk over there. There are a few lilac plants planted over there. The fragrance is light and pleasant."

After saying that, he reached out to help Concubine De.

Defei didn't expect Yutan to take the initiative to take her somewhere else. She gritted her teeth in her heart. Was this little bitch trying to get rid of her on purpose? She wanted to see what this little bitch was up to!

Kangxi's eyes fell on Concubine De, and his brows slightly furrowed. He usually admired Yu Tan's simple elegance and beauty, but Concubine De's deliberately imitated outfit seemed extremely artificial in his eyes.

The rouge used to apply on her lips was too bright, forming a sharp contrast with Defei's deliberately pale face. She looked like a female opera singer on the stage, with heavy colors but losing some authenticity.

Although the moon-white Manchu dress was plain in color, it was made of the finest brocade and was embroidered with intricate patterns. It shone brightly in the sun, which was inconsistent with the pitiful temperament that Concubine De tried hard to create.

Kangxi turned his eyes away imperceptibly, feeling a little unhappy.

This Defei is becoming more and more ignorant. She is actually imitating those vulgar women. Does she think that she can attract his attention by putting on heavy makeup?

"Ahem." Kangxi coughed lightly and turned his eyes away.

"This peony is blooming beautifully, but the name..."
