Chapter 267: Confirmation, Noble Consort Su

“You flatter me. Come, let’s sit over there.” Noble Consort Su sat with her, but Bai Xiangxiu was so drunk she was swaying left and right. She even reached out and touched Noble Consort Su’s face, giggling as she spoke. “Noble Consort, your face is so smooth. What skincare do you usually use?”

Bai Xiangxiu frowned. This face feels real and is nothing like a mask at all. So, does that mean she’s really not Su Yun?

“Elder sister will send a portion over to you tomorrow. How about that?” said Noble Consort Su.

“Many thanks, elder sister.”

“My family has become strangers ever since I entered the capital. It’s naturally so so nice to have a sister I can walk around with.”

Dang! What am I going to do? She’s using familiar terms around me again.

“Which sister in the capital won’t like a beauty like the noble consort?” She clearly isn’t Su Yun, but what’s this indescribably sense of familiarity I’m getting from her? Just as she was musing over her suspicions, someone outside announced, “The emperor has arrived!”

The imperial wives panicked. They were here to attend the noble consort’s banquet. They never thought the emperor would come! Bai Xiangxiu also stood up. Thankfully, she didn’t forget that she was pretending to be drunk, so she swayed a little as she got up. Noble Consort Su quickly helped her up. It really was the full… bosom of a beauty. Wait, something was off. Her chest wasn’t as large as Bai Xiangxiu had imagined, rather it seemed like padded. The feeling from the bottom was different.

Women from ancient times were normally very reserved. Those who had large chests didn’t stick them out. They would even bind their chest up as much as possible when they left the house to make walking more convenient. This was also the origin of loose clothing paired with long sleeves. Women felt walking with their chest sticking out was inconvenient because bras didn’t exist at that time. Since she could correct it herself, her undergarments were a little better than the ones used in ancient times. Even so, it only served to hold her breasts in place. She hadn’t yet had the time to research ways on how to perk them up. It looks like I need to go back and do my research. Although it’s not directed towards seducing men, I still need to think of ways to maintain the freshness of my marriage!

But that was a matter for a different period in time. Long Heng hadn’t lost interest in her at the moment. Any move she made would just made this man burn with desire. There’s no need to try out unnecessary things. I’ll patiently wait things out and think about these things when the time comes!

“Younger sister, since you’re drunk, why don’t you stay in the palace today and keep me company?”

“Eh…” She’d actually sat down whilst absentmindedly, but this seat was a little strange. The emperor was seated at the rightmost position to where she was, followed by Noble Consort Su, then her.

The look in the emperor’s eyes was very strange, and it kept flitting over in her direction. That look in his eyes took Bai Xiangxiu aback. Being the experienced person that she was, Bai Xiangxiu understood the intentions a man had towards a woman when he looked at her with those kind of eyes.

“I’ll have to pass. Xiao Lin is extremely attached to me. If I don’t return, I’m afraid there’ll be trouble.” If only that were true. Long Lin didn’t even take notice of her. He already showed her quite a lot of face by smiling at her everytime he saw her. Using children as an excuse was very good because Noble Consort Su didn’t insist on making her stay. The only thing she did was stop Bai Xiangxiu from returning to her original seat when she stood up. “Since you’re dizzy, you should just sit here and don’t move so as to not fall.”
