Chapter 397 Step by Step Shocking Jade Tan 19
"Yutan, can I teach you a new poem today?" Kangxi held her hand and handed the brush to her.
Yutan's hands were trembling slightly, Kangxi's hands were warm and dry, in sharp contrast to her cold palms. His eyes were as gentle as water, as if they could melt people.
"Your Majesty..." Yu Tan's voice was as thin as a mosquito.
"Silly girl, there's no need to be so reserved in front of me." Kangxi smiled and scratched her nose.
"Come, I'll teach you."
Yu Tan's heart was beating so fast that she could even feel Kangxi's warm breath spraying on her ears. The scent of ambergris mixed with the faint scent of ink on his body made her a little intoxicated.
As time went by, Yu Tan gradually got used to Kangxi's existence. She discovered that this emperor was not as cold and ruthless as the outside world had said. He also had a gentle and delicate side, and would put down his status for the one he loved.
Although Kangxi did not let Yutan sleep with him because she was still young, he did not summon anyone else to sleep with him either, and always let her live in the west warm pavilion.
The West Warm Pavilion was originally a place for the emperor to rest, but now it was decorated by Kangxi to be particularly warm and comfortable. There were light gauze curtains, the incense burner was burning with Yutan's favorite calming incense, the desk was filled with her copied calligraphy, and even the windowsill was filled with her favorite gardenias.
Kangxi stayed in the West Warm Pavilion for several days, which made the concubines in the harem restless. Concubine Hui specially made some snacks that Kangxi liked to eat and sent them to him, but was blocked by Li Dequan at the door.
"Please forgive me, Concubine Hui. The Emperor is discussing matters with Master Yu and cannot be disturbed."
"Discuss matters?" Concubine Hui raised her eyebrows.
"What kind of state affairs is the emperor discussing with a little girl? Li Dequan, don't try to fool me!"
Li Dequan still greeted her with a smile, neither humble nor arrogant: "I dare not deceive the Empress Hui, and I dare not make any comments on the matter between the Emperor and Master Yu. I hope the Empress will understand."
Concubine Hui gnashed her teeth in anger, but she could do nothing. She knew Kangxi treated Yu Tan differently. In the past three months, not to mention sleeping with Kangxi, even the concubines in the harem rarely saw Kangxi. This had never happened before.
In the west warm room, Yu Tan was curled up on the soft couch, eating grapes peeled by Kangxi himself while listening to him telling interesting stories in the court.
"Your Majesty, do you think those ministers would really quarrel over trivial matters?" Yu Tan blinked her big eyes, looking curious.
"They are not fighting over trivial matters." Kangxi smiled and scratched her nose.
"What they are fighting for is power and status, in order to gain a firm foothold in this place where people are eaten without leaving any bones."
Kangxi's words made Yu Tan's heart tremble. It turned out that there were undercurrents everywhere in this deep palace. She pretended to be innocent and asked, "What about you, Your Majesty? What are you doing?"
"I? I am of course..."
He deliberately prolonged his tone, and Yu Tan's heart began to lift as she waited for his answer curiously.
Kangxi suddenly smiled, pinched her fair cheeks, and said lovingly: "I am doing this to protect my little Yutan."
Yu Tan's cheeks flushed, and she slapped his hand away coquettishly: "The Emperor always makes fun of this servant."
"Oh? My little Yutan is shy too?" Kangxi was in a good mood. He hugged her in his arms and bent down to kiss her earlobe.
"It seems that I have to work harder to hear Xiao Yutan's sincere response as soon as possible."
Kangxi's breathing became a little rapid, and his warm breath sprayed on Yutan's earlobe, causing a tingling sensation.
His slender fingers gently traced Yu Tan's delicate cheeks, and his tone was low and ambiguous: "My little Yu Tan is becoming more and more charming..."
Yutan's heart was beating like a drum. She could feel Kangxi's emotions. However, she was still very resistant to this kind of thing in her heart.
"Your Majesty..." Yu Tan tried to push Kangxi away, but her strength was like an ant trying to shake a tree for Kangxi.
"Be good, I won't touch you..."
"Your Majesty, please don't do this..." Yu Tan's voice was as thin as a mosquito. She didn't dare to look into Kangxi's eyes. She could only turn her head to the side, trying to avoid his touch.
Kangxi paused for a moment, looking at Yutan's shy appearance, a desire to conquer her surged in his heart. He suddenly pushed Yutan down on the couch, his burning eyes locked on her tightly, like a leopard staring at its prey.
"My little Yutan, what are you afraid of?" Kangxi's voice was low and hoarse, with a hint of danger.
Yu Tan didn't dare to speak, she could only tremble. She knew that if she didn't resist, she would not be able to escape tonight.
"Don't worry, I said I won't touch you, and I will definitely do it." Kangxi looked at Yutan's frightened eyes and his heart softened. He slowed down his tone and gently kissed away the tears from the corners of her eyes.
Yu Tan was stunned. She didn't expect Kangxi to change his mind suddenly. She raised her head and looked at Kangxi in confusion.
Kangxi looked at Yutan's big watery eyes, and his heart softened. He couldn't help but lower his head, gently kissed her forehead, and said softly: "Go to sleep, my little Yutan."
That night, Kangxi just held Yutan in his arms and did nothing.
Yutan's originally uneasy heart gradually calmed down. She closed her eyes and felt the warm embrace of Kangxi.
Kangxi looked at Yutan sleeping in his arms, with a doting smile on his face. He knew that Yutan's heart knot had not been completely untied, but he was confident that one day, he would completely conquer this little woman who haunted his dreams.
The next morning, when Kangxi woke up, he found that Yutan was no longer around. He got up and walked to the outer room, where he saw Yutan fiddling with the memorial he had reviewed yesterday.
"Xiao Tan, why don't you sleep a little longer?" Kangxi walked over, hugged Yu Tan from behind, and gently rested his head on her shoulder.
Tan's cheeks immediately flushed, like a ripe apple, red and juicy. She lowered her head in panic and stammered, "I was just sorting out the memorials, I didn't peek."
Kangxi was even happier when he saw Yutan's shy look. He walked behind Yutan, held her in his arms, rested his chin on her shoulder, and said in a low and magnetic voice: "What's so good about my memorials? Hmm? As for you, I've been reading them all night and I still haven't had enough."
The warm breath sprayed on Yu Tan's ears, causing a tingling shudder. She felt her heart beating faster and faster, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.
"Your Majesty..." Yu Tan's voice was so soft as a mosquito and almost inaudible.
Kangxi heard it clearly. He chuckled and turned Yutan's body over so that she faced him.
"What's wrong? Did you sleep well last night?" Kangxi looked at Yutan with a playful smile in his eyes.
