“Although Ming’er is known for his lack of discipline, the things he’s come up with this time are quite interesting. Nowadays, I use soap every day to bathe, and it leaves me feeling refreshed,” Xiao Wenxuan said. Now, if he didn’t use soap, he felt uncomfortable, as if he hadn’t washed properly.
“Your Majesty, indeed! We now use soap every day to wash our hands and bathe, and with the perfume, we feel so much more comfortable,” one of the concubines chimed in.
Xiao Wenxuan chuckled and gently stroked the concubine’s cheek. “My dear consort, your skin feels so much smoother today. Haha…”
“Your Majesty…” The concubine seized the opportunity to act coy.
Empress Zhao’s face flushed slightly. Xiao Wenxuan had always been fond of women, but lately, he had become even more unrestrained. He didn’t hold back even in front of so many concubines. However, she didn’t dare to say anything. These days, it was rare to see Xiao Wenxuan in such a good mood.
Holding the perfume in his left hand and the soap in his right, Xiao Wenxuan thought to himself that these two items would certainly enhance his intimate moments with his concubines. Feeling pleased, he said, “The Prince of Qi has finally done something to make me happy. I think I’ll have the remaining eight hundred thousand taels of silver sent to him soon.”
“Your servant thanks Your Majesty on behalf of the Prince of Qi!” Consort Zhen was overjoyed.
Xiao Wenxuan looked at Consort Zhen and nodded with satisfaction. “I’ve heard that the mung bean cakes here at Consort Zhen’s palace are quite delicious. I’d like to try them and see what they taste like.”
The other concubines couldn’t help but feel envious. Xiao Wenxuan’s words implied that he would be staying the night at Consort Zhen’s palace.
