Chapter 421 Step by Step Shocking Jade Tan 43

Just as I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard footsteps approaching from afar, accompanied by the eunuch's shrill voice: "The Emperor has arrived——"

Yu Tan hurriedly stood up to greet him, but Kangxi had already lifted the curtain and walked in, with obvious joy on his face.

"My dear, what are you thinking about? You look so absorbed." Kangxi walked straight to Yutan and sat down, then took her into his arms.

Yu Tan snuggled into Kangxi's arms and said tenderly, "I was wondering why the emperor hasn't come back today?"

"If I hadn't come, wouldn't I have been nagged to death by you, this little devil?" Kangxi gently scratched Yu Tan's nose, his tone doting.

This man was not busy reviewing memorials in the front, but came to her from time to time, spewing sweet words at her like they were free.

"Your Majesty seems to be in a particularly good mood today?" Yu Tan pushed Kangxi away calmly, picked up the grapes on the table, and began to peel them casually.

"I got a treasure today, so I'm naturally happy." Kangxi was in a very good mood and didn't care about Yu Tan's little trick. Instead, he took out a brocade box from his sleeve with great interest.

Yu Tan glanced at it absentmindedly and saw that the brocade box was exquisitely carved and it was obvious that it was worth a lot of money.

"What kind of treasure is it that the emperor cherishes so much?"

Kangxi smiled mysteriously and opened the brocade box. Inside was a jade hairpin that was entirely emerald green. The hairpin was carved into the shape of a phoenix and looked so lifelike that one could tell at first glance that it was made by a famous artist.

"I plan to give this phoenix hairpin to Tan'er."

Kangxi saw that Yutan was not interested, but he was not annoyed. He just smiled meaningfully and said, "Tan'er, do you think this phoenix hairpin is too vulgar? I see the workmanship and quality of it. It is a first-class treasure in the palace."

"If the emperor likes it, why not give this phoenix hairpin to another sister. I am stupid and unworthy of it."

Kangxi was stunned, obviously not expecting Yutan to refuse.

"What's wrong with Yu Tan today? Who made you angry?" Kangxi held Yu Tan in his arms and coaxed her good-temperedly.

"I didn't!" Yu Tan suddenly broke free from Kangxi's arms like a cat whose tail was stepped on, with a hint of anger in her eyes and eyebrows. Her angry look was quite charming in Kangxi's eyes.

Kangxi was amused by her cute and naive appearance. He pinched her puffy cheeks with his big hands and said in a doting tone, "You said no, but look at your pouty little mouth. You can even hang a small oil bottle on it."

Yu Tan slapped his hand away and said unhappily, "If the emperor is alright, I will go and rest first."

Kangxi was not annoyed, but laughed out loud. In this laughter, there was some sincerity, some indulgence, and some...hunting-like interest.

"Okay, okay, I was wrong. Tan'er is not angry." Kangxi said as he reached out to hold Yu Tan's shoulders, but she dodged him nimbly.

"Your Majesty is in a good mood today, and I dare not disturb you." Yu Tan said in a cold tone, lowering her head to fiddle with the tea set on the table, looking as if she was keeping people at a distance.

The smile on Kangxi's face faded a little. He pondered for a moment, and his tone became more serious: "Tan'er, why do we have to be so distant? If you are unhappy, just say it directly. Why do you have to make fun of me?"

Yu Tan knew she was in the wrong, so she softened her tone and said softly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. It is my fault that I have displeased Your Majesty."

Xuanye wanted to tease the little girl. After all, it was not easy to see Tan'er take the initiative to coax her.

Seeing him like this, Yu Tan felt even more uneasy. She stood up and walked to Kangxi, gently holding his arm, and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, please don't be angry with me. I know I was wrong."

"Oh? What did Tan'er do wrong?" Kangxi took her into his arms, his tone unable to tell whether he was happy or angry.

She took a deep breath and said softly, "I shouldn't lose my temper with the emperor..."

Kangxi looked down at the woman in his arms. He saw her eyes moving around, and felt pity for her. The anger in his heart had long since disappeared.

"I've said before, there's no need to be so formal between you and me." Kangxi gently stroked her back.

"If you have any unhappiness in your heart, just say it directly. Why keep it in your heart?"

"Your Majesty, I'm really fine. I just feel unwell these days..." Yu Tan's voice was as soft as a light cloud, which seemed to dissipate with a little effort.

Yutan did not lie. She was indeed very tired these days. Kangxi worked very hard every night, which made her sleepy during the day.

Kangxi looked at the person in front of him. Her fair skin was glowing lightly under the candlelight. The lingering fatigue between her eyes and eyebrows made his heart tighten.

Kangxi frowned, and gently placed his warm fingers on Yutan's slender wrist, feeling the beating of her pulse. Yutan was a little overwhelmed by his sudden action, and wanted to pull her hand back, but Kangxi held it tightly.

"Your Majesty..." Yu Tan's voice was timid, like a frightened deer.

Kangxi ignored her uneasiness and concentrated on feeling the beating of her pulse, as if he was interpreting a rare treasure. His face became more and more solemn, and his brows furrowed more and more tightly.

After a long time, Kangxi slowly spoke, with a hint of disbelief and a hint of barely perceptible joy in his tone: "Tan'er, you..."

He paused, as if he was choosing his words, and continued after a while: "Have you been feeling very tired recently, sleepy, and have a poor appetite?"

He knew all about Yu Tan's situation, he was just too excited and just confirmed it again.

Yu Tan was stunned. She was indeed very tired these days. Kangxi was full of energy every night, which made her unable to concentrate during the day, and her appetite was sometimes good and sometimes bad.

"How did the emperor know that?" Yu Tan pretended to be confused, her big watery eyes full of doubts.

Kangxi did not answer Yutan's question directly, but picked her up and gently placed her on the bed. He was so gentle as if he was treating a fragile treasure, afraid of disturbing her. Yutan was a little overwhelmed by his sudden action, and her big watery eyes were full of confusion.

"Your Majesty, what are you..."

Kangxi didn't say anything, but just stared at her with deep eyes, which were so gentle that they seemed to melt people. He slowly stretched out his hand and gently stroked Yutan's cheek. The warmth from his fingertips made her feel at ease.

"Tan'er, have you not had your period recently?" Kangxi's voice was low and magnetic, with a hint of barely perceptible nervousness.

Yu Tan was shocked when she heard this. She thought about it carefully and realized that her period was indeed delayed.

Seeing her reaction, the last trace of doubt in Kangxi's heart disappeared.

He was overjoyed and hugged Yu Tan in his arms, his voice trembling with excitement: "Tan Er, you really... you really have my child?"
