Chapter 387 Step by Step Shocking Jade Tan 9

"What? You don't want to?" Kangxi raised his eyebrows, with a hint of amusement in his tone.

"I dare not." Yu Tan lowered her head quickly, her mind full of thoughts. She knew that once she accepted the title, it would mean that she would be completely drawn into the whirlpool of the palace and would no longer be able to control herself.

Kangxi looked at her panic and understood. This girl is still so timid.

"Okay, I won't force you. Just stay by my side. When you have thought it through, it won't be too late to tell me." Kangxi stood up, walked to Yutan, patted her shoulder gently, his tone incredibly gentle.

Not long after Kangxi left, a eunuch tiptoed to the door of Yutan's room and knocked respectfully.

"Who is it?" Yu Tan's voice was still a little hoarse from just waking up.

"Miss Yutan, it's my humble servant Xiao Dezi. The Ninth Prince sent me here. Please go to our old place and have a chat." Xiao Dezi lowered his voice, fearing that others might hear him.

Yu Tan was shocked. Ninth Prince? Why would he suddenly come to see her?

Could it be... She didn't dare to think any further, and quickly stood up, straightened her clothes, and followed Xiao Dezi out.

Along the way, Yu Tan was in a state of confusion. The Ninth Prince was always romantic and had a great reputation among the princes, but she didn't have much interaction with him. What was the reason for this sudden invitation?

Unconsciously, the two of them had arrived at a rockery deep in the imperial garden. This was the "old place" that she and the Ninth Prince had agreed on privately before. It was usually sparsely populated and very secluded.

"Master Jiu." Yu Tan walked behind the rockery and bowed slightly to the Master Jiu in front of him.

The Ninth Prince was wearing a royal blue robe today with a white jade belt tied around his waist, which made him look even more handsome and extraordinary.

When he saw Yutan coming, he raised a playful smile and said, "Yutan, I haven't seen you for a few days. You have become more beautiful. No wonder the emperor loves you so much."

Yu Tan's face changed slightly when she heard this, and she said calmly, "Master Jiu, you are joking. I am just a vulgar person, how can I be in the eyes of the emperor?"

The Ninth Prince walked up to Yu Tan, stretched out his hand and gently lifted her chin, looking at her with burning eyes: "You don't have to play dumb in front of me. We both know what the Emperor feels for you."

The Ninth Prince's eyes wandered over Yu Tan's body wantonly, as if he wanted to see through her. Yu Tan felt a chill in her heart, and subconsciously took a step back to avoid the Ninth Prince's touch.

"Master Jiu, please respect yourself!" Yu Tan lowered his voice, with an imperceptible tremor in his tone.

The Ninth Prince chuckled, took his hand back, and said nonchalantly, "Why? The Emperor hasn't done anything to you yet, and you're already putting on airs?"

"I dare not." Yu Tan lowered her head, but secretly complained in her heart. She knew that the Ninth Prince had always been unruly and acted according to his own preferences. If she angered him, the consequences would be disastrous.

The Ninth Prince looked at Yu Tan's panic and his smile deepened. This girl was still so interesting, like a frightened little rabbit, making people want to tease her.

“Yutan, why are you so scared? The Emperor is old, and you are young and beautiful. Instead of staying with that old man, why don’t you follow me? I promise that you will get the wealth and glory you want.” The Ninth Prince pressed on step by step, with a hint of temptation in his tone.

Seeing Yutan being so ungrateful, the Ninth Prince gradually lost his smile and his tone became colder: "Yutan, don't refuse a toast! The Emperor has three thousand beauties in his harem, how long will the novelty last? When he gets tired of you, you will have nothing."

The Ninth Prince's words were nothing more than an attempt to sow discord and make her resent Kangxi and thus obey him.

The Ninth Prince was even more pleased when he saw Yu Tan lowering her head and looking obedient, as if she was at the mercy of others. He stretched out his hand and pinched Yu Tan's chin, saying frivolously, "That's right, a man who knows the current situation is a hero. Don't worry, as long as you are obedient, you will get the benefits."

"I understand. Master Jiu has any instructions. Please tell me."

Seeing her being so understanding, the Ninth Prince smiled with satisfaction and said in a low voice, "The Emperor has been paying close attention to state affairs recently. You should pay more attention to him. If there is any important news, remember to pass it on to me in time."

Yu Tan was shocked and felt a chill running from the soles of her feet to her head.

Although she knew from the beginning why she entered the palace, but... from what she saw yesterday, the emperor treated her very well. If she really did this...

Yutan's heart was beating so fast that it seemed like it was about to jump out of her throat in the next second.

Yu Tan took a deep breath, trying to suppress the surging emotions in her heart, and said calmly: "Master Jiu, you are joking. I am stupid and don't know anything about the affairs of the court. I only know that the emperor is the supreme ruler and I am his servant. I should serve the emperor well and share his worries."

The Ninth Prince raised his eyebrows and looked at her with a half-smile: "Oh? Really? It seems that the Emperor has trained you well. You have learned to be loyal and protect the master so quickly."

"Master Jiu, you are joking. This is what I should do." Yu Tan answered with lowered eyebrows, but she was secretly complaining in her heart.

"Okay, stop pretending." The Ninth Prince waved his hand impatiently.

Seeing that Yu Tan was unmoved, the Ninth Prince sneered, took out a jade pendant from his sleeve, and threw it in front of Yu Tan. Yu Tan looked down, and her pupils suddenly contracted. This jade pendant was given to her brother...

"It seems that you haven't forgotten your beloved brother." The Ninth Prince said slowly, but his tone was chilling.

"Is he doing well outside the palace now? If I'm in a bad mood, I might find a few people to play with him."

Yu Tan's face was pale and her body was shaky. How could she not understand what the Ninth Prince meant? He was threatening her with her brother's life!

"Master Jiu, I will do whatever you want me to do. I only ask you... to let my brother go." Yu Tan bit her lip and almost squeezed out these words from between her teeth.

"That's right." The Ninth Prince smiled with satisfaction and returned to his cynical look.

"As long as you are obedient, I promise that your brother will be safe."

He reached out and lifted Yu Tan's chin, his tone frivolous and ambiguous: "I heard that the emperor is very fond of you recently. You must seize the opportunity and strive to climb onto the dragon bed as soon as possible to find out more information for this prince."

Yu Tan suppressed the humiliation and fear in her heart and tried to force out a smile: "I understand, and I will not disappoint Master Jiu."

"Very good." The Ninth Prince let go of his hand, turned around and walked out. When he reached the door, he stopped again and said without turning his head.
