The Promotion Record of a Crown Princess

4-8: Adultery on the Shores of the Taiye Pool

Yet Lu Li said: "Niangniang, His Highness the Crown Prince has already arrived at the Palace entrance. You must hurry."

Another palace maid hurriedly stepped forward, using a warm towel to clean my face and hands.

"Lu Li, I--"

Lu Li cut me short: "Niangniang, you have to go!"

Yet another palace maid pressed me down into the chair, the maids surrounding me front and back, right and left. One put on my makeup, and another one combed my hair.

I looked for Lu Li from a crack between the bodies: "Lu Li, I--"

"Niangniang! You cannot continue acting so temperamental!"

Lu Li again said, personally holding a golden embroidered phoenix skirt that spilled out from her hands as she waited to the side.

Talking over another woman, are you crazy? As a result, I obediently shut up, allowing them to tidy me up, up and down, inside and out.

When I exited the Palace hall's door while grasping Lu Li's hand, I suddenly once again recalled the words that I had wanted to say before being interrupted countless times, thus turning my head to look at Lu Li, wanting to say something but hesitating to do so.

Lu Li promptly asked me in a lowered voice: "Niangniang, do you still have any matters to attend to?"

I only now could finally finish my entire sentence: "Lu Li, please put away my Eight Treasures Congee, when I come back, I'll continue drinking it."

The corner of Lu Li's mouth twitched twice, but in the end, she couldn't say anything.

I turned my head forward, looking at the crowd of Eastern Palace pinfei, my eyes brightening. Heh! Truly possessing a thousand charms, the most outstanding a!

I tried to suppress the arousal I felt inside and walked forward, putting on a front of virtuousness as I fixed Huang Liang Yuan's collar, helped Li Cheng Hui arrange the tassels that hung from her waist, and then smoothed out a stray hair in front of Chen Liang Di's face...... When I was about to bend down to tidy up Wang Zhao Xun's white flower skirt, Lu Li could no longer bear to watch, stopping me and forcing a smile: "Niangniang, please hurry, His Highness the Crown Prince will arrive at the Palace doors soon."

(T/N: If you look at these concubines' traits on glossary and cast, you will get what he doing...)

I looked at Lu Li's frantic eyes, then turned my head to look at the eyes of the astounded beauties, and gave a resigned nod: "Alright, let's go then."

But inside I thought - tofu isn't something that you can eat in one day, I'll leave it for now.

(T/N: tofu as a term used to insinuate the intimacy between male and female.)

Leading the group of plump and petite beauties like a parade to the front entrance of the palace, yet I still didn't see that Crown Prince Qi Sheng's figure after reaching the gate. I then recalled that women were always a species who have loved to exaggerate, and as such, Lu Li's words couldn't be trusted. Thus, I had no alternative but to lead the group of delicate and lovely beauties to wait at the Palace gates. Only after waiting a couple of small hours did I finally see Qi Sheng's distant figure.

This was the third time that I had seen Qi Sheng. He appeared to be darker than the last time I had seen him, and I suddenly felt less fed up with him. After all, men are more like men if they're a bit darker.

(E/N: Darker in skin tone)

Leading the beautiful orioles and swallows in a row and saying a few sentences that befit the situation, I turned my body around towards the beauties and saw a deceitful light flashing through their eyes. My mood sunk as I really wanted to properly teach these female compatriots: You all don't have anything in your heads a! Did you never learn that a man's inner qualities should be greater than his looks!
