Lin Feilu immediately trailed after her with her short legs. Her heart was screaming with adoration. This woman is so cool!
As the saying went, the way a person carries oneself is more important than appearance! And Noble Consort Xi oozed the most amazing aura!
She secretly inquired a lot about Noble Consort Xi. It was said that she was born and raised in the frontier juncture, and learned martial arts. She had the potential to become a female general, but she entered the palace to become a concubine instead.
She was cold and proud, and disdained to compete for favor. She was elected as an Imperial Concubine as soon as she entered the palace and even though she had no children, she steadily climbed up to the position as a Noble Consort due to family connections, and was trusted and loved by Emperor Lin.
Isn’t she just like the harem heroine in those historical period TV dramas?! She’s completely different from Consort Mei!
They went up the steps, through the heavy curtain, to the steaming hot spring.
With two maid servants waiting on either side, Noble Consort Xi, who was wearing only an unlined garment, stood at the edge of the pool and undressed, exposing the beautiful outline of her scapulas and slender legs, then went down the steps into the hot spring carefully.
Lin Feilu followed her, and took off her coat with Songyu’s help. A bath towel which she had prepared in advance was wrapped around her underneath the coat. She dipped her foot into the pool to test the temperature, and then slowly slid her body into the water.
Ah, comfortable.
Long time no see, hot spring.
She closed her eyes in relaxation when she heard Noble Consort Xi’s soft voice, “Don’t go to the center, it’s deep.”
Lin Feilu looked over. She had her back against the edge of the pool, her face ruddy from the heat of the steam, bringing some warmness into her cold demeanor. Above the water, her delicate clavicles that connected to her smooth, slender neck perfectly was extremely alluring. This was the figure of someone who had practiced martial arts since childhood!
Lin Feilu sighed deeply inside. How could my father ever deserve such a beautiful woman!!!
She replied obediently, and dragged her feet over slowly in the water towards Noble Consort Xi with her short legs and squatted next to her.
After a while, Noble Consort Xi opened her bright eyes in the vapour condensed air to look at the little dumpling unblinkingly.
She asked, “What are you looking at?”
Lin Feilu replied, “The Lady is so pretty!”
“Little liar, already know how to compliment people at such a young age.”
Lin Feilu wanted to pour out her to confess her admiration, “Little Lu is not lying! The Lady is pretty!”
“Oh really? Then tell me, how am I pretty?” Noble Consort Xi seemed to be intrigued.
“The Lady’s collarbone is very beautiful, s̲e̲x̲y̲ and prominent! And the neck too, it’s slender and elegant, as beautiful as a swan! And the waist, the Lady can kill with your waist, there’s no need for a blade!”
“?”
As a beauty freak (someone who loves looking at beautiful people), it was hard to keep her feelings to herself at the sight of such a beauty. She had only barely restrained herself, and returned to her innocent childlike demeanor when she saw Noble Consort Xi’s confused eyes, “You’re very pretty!”
Noble Consort Xi continued to stare at the little dumpling for a long time, then finally broke into a smile and reached out to tug at her bun. “Just like Xingjiang had described, you are indeed an interesting little girl.”
Lin Feilu smiled bashfully.
