Chapter 441 Step by Step Shocking Jade Tan 63

Seeing Ruoxi like this, Yu Tan did not ask any more questions, thinking that she was a little uncomfortable because she had just arrived at the grassland. After all, Ruoxi was a heartless girl, and she might be lively again in a few days.

Urgent news came from the capital that the Eighteenth Prince was seriously ill.

Since Yu Tan came to him, he seemed to be ten years younger, and he had fewer worries in his daily life. He liked to see Yu Tan's charming smile, liked to hear her soft and sweet voice, and liked her occasional coquettishness and dependence even more.

However, this urgent news from the capital was like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing all the enthusiasm in his heart.

Kangxi was originally immersed in the gentle land of tenderness, but when he heard the news, his face suddenly changed.

The eighteenth prince Yinzhen was his youngest son, who was smart and clever since childhood and was deeply loved by him. Now that he suddenly heard that his beloved son was seriously ill, he was extremely anxious and wanted to fly back to the capital immediately.

Yu Tan noticed that Kangxi looked strange, and asked with concern, "Your Majesty, what happened in the capital?"

Kangxi took a deep breath, handed the secret report in his hand to Yutan, and said in a deep voice: "Read it yourself."

Yu Tan took the secret report and read it carefully. It said that the Eighteenth Prince had suddenly fallen ill, the Imperial Hospital was helpless, and now he was in critical condition.

Yutan was shocked. She knew how much Kangxi doted on the Eighteenth Prince. Now that his beloved son was critically ill, he must be very anxious.

Kangxi's face turned livid in an instant. He stood up abruptly, threw the memorial in his hand fiercely on the stone table, and shouted angrily: "Come here! Pass on my decree to return to Beijing in three days!"

Yutan couldn't help but worry. Although she had not had much contact with the Eighteenth Prince Yinzhi, she knew that this prince was talented, gentle and polite to others, and was a rare prince.

Now that he is suddenly seriously ill, the emperor must be extremely anxious.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. The Eighteenth Prince is a lucky man and will be fine." Yu Tan comforted him softly. She gently put her arms around Kangxi's waist and rested her head on his back, feeling his body trembling with anxiety.

Kangxi took a deep breath and tried to calm his flustered emotions. He held Yutan's hand with his backhand and gently stroked her soft skin, as if this could bring him some comfort.

"Tan'er, you don't know, Yinzhen has been weak and sickly since childhood, and I owe him too much..." Kangxi's voice was low and hoarse, revealing a hint of powerlessness and self-blame.

Prince Yinreng has been feeling very depressed these days. Ever since that vixen named Yutan became the emperor's woman, the emperor has no longer cared about anyone else.

All day long he saw the two of them being affectionate and lovey-dovey, which made Yinreng feel sick.

"Your Highness, please drink less. This is already the third pot..." The personal eunuch Xiao Dezi looked at Yinreng drinking one cup of liquor after another and advised worriedly.

Yinreng turned a deaf ear to him. He pushed away the hangover soup that Xiao Dezi handed over and laughed at himself: "What? Don't I even have the right to drink? The emperor spends the whole day having fun with that woman, so can't I drink to relieve my sorrow?!"

Xiao Dezi was so scared that he fell to his knees, not daring to persuade him anymore. He could only watch Yinreng pour cup after cup of liquor.

"Your Highness, please don't be like this. You still have servants..." As Xiao Dezi spoke, he actually started crying.

Yinreng looked at the crying Xiao Dezi and became even more annoyed. He grabbed Xiao Dezi by the collar and shouted, "Get out! Get out! I don't want to see you hypocritical guys!"

Xiao Dezi was so frightened that he trembled with fear. He did not dare to disobey the prince's order, so he could only leave the room with the other palace servants, leaving Yinreng alone in the empty hall, drinking to drown his sorrows.

"Your Majesty... do you really not care about me at all?" Yinreng murmured to himself. He looked at the wine glass in his hand with drunken eyes, his eyes full of sadness and despair.

"Why...why do you treat me like this..." Yinreng said as the wine glass in his hand slipped and fell to the ground, breaking into pieces, just like his mood at the moment.

Prince Yinreng walked out of the tent drunk, his mind full of images of Kangxi and Yutan together, feeling angry and unwilling. He stumbled along the way, just wanting to find a place to vent his frustration.

When passing by the Imperial Garden, Yinreng accidentally saw Yinxiang and Princess Minmin chatting and laughing in the pavilion.

Princess Minmin was dressed in red, which set off her fair skin, her eyebrows and eyes were picturesque, her gaze was graceful, and her laughter was as sweet as a silver bell. Yinxiang was dressed in a royal blue robe, looking handsome and extraordinary. The two of them standing together looked like a perfect couple.

Seeing this scene, Yinreng felt even more uncomfortable. He stopped and stared at Princess Minmin, with a hint of evil thoughts in his eyes.

Alcohol numbed his reason, and he was lustful and walked towards Princess Minmin regardless of everything.

"Oh, isn't this my Thirteenth Brother and Princess Minmin? You two are being so affectionate here, you look so happy!" Yinreng staggered to the pavilion and said in a sarcastic tone.

When Princess Minmin saw Yinreng's appearance, she felt a little unhappy, but because he was the crown prince, she suppressed her anger.

Yinxiang also stood up and saluted, but his brows were slightly frowned. He noticed that Yinreng was not in a good state. He smelled strongly of alcohol and his eyes were a little blurry.

"Get up, no need to be polite." Yinreng waved his hand, his eyes staying on Princess Minmin with a bit of aggression.

"How come the prince has time to come out today?" Yinxiang asked calmly, trying to divert Yinreng's attention.

"You're in a bad mood, come out for a walk." Yinreng said, grabbing Princess Minmin's wrist and pulling her to his side.

"Princess Minmin, how about having a drink with me?"

Princess Minmin was frightened by Yinreng's sudden action. She tried to break free, but Yinreng held her so tightly that she could not move.

"Your Highness, please respect yourself!" Princess Minmin shouted angrily, feeling ashamed and angry.

"Self-respect? I am the crown prince. The entire Qing Dynasty belongs to me. I can do whatever I want!" Yinreng was drunk with alcohol. He completely disregarded Princess Minmin's feelings and forcibly pulled her away.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?" Yinxiang saw this and hurried forward to stop him.

Yinxiang suddenly pulled Princess Minmin behind him, stared at Yinreng fiercely, and said in a cold tone: "Your Highness, please respect yourself!"

Yinreng was angered by Yinxiang's sudden action. He pointed at Yinxiang's nose and cursed: "Thirteenth brother, do you really want to snatch me away?"

"Your Highness, I just don't want to see you do anything that is humiliating to your status! Please forgive me, second brother. I made an appointment with Princess Minmin today. Excuse me." Yinxiang met Yinreng's gaze without fear, then took Princess Minmin and left.
