Pampered in the Qing Palace: The Peaceful Life of Consort Xi

Lanxin never imagined that one day she would enter the household of the Fourth Prince, Yinzhen. His reputation for being cold and aloof had spread throughout the capital, making all the young women keep their distance.

But only after she entered his household with a heart full of trepidation did Lanxin discover that the Fourth Prince was actually such a sly flirt.

"Lanxin, you're so thin. Why don't you eat more?" he said, reaching out to give her waist a quick squeeze.

"If Your Highness likes women on the plump side, why not visit Lady Li?" Lanxin said, pouting.

"You can tell me to leave all you like. I'm staying right here!" Without a care, the Fourth Prince swept Lanxin into his arms and carried her toward the bed.
