The Empress' Livestream - Chapter 268
Chapter 268: Ji Shan Hot Spring (III)
Normal citizens having a hot spring bath was normally pretty casual, but that wasn’t the case for the gentry clans; they were upscale about every single detail in order to show off their social status.
Jiang Pengji was led to one of the courtyard houses by a female servant who worked in the hotel. The first step was to have a thorough shower and to burn incense smoke from her hair to her toes. Her hair was, of course, specially taken care of. About fifty perfumes were ground to powder and set in delicate makeup boxes for the guests.
She refused the servant’s offer to help her clean up. Instead, she walked into a pool about four square meters in size and swiftly wet her hair and washed it.
The bathing clothes for her were prepared and folded ahead of time and placed in a separate place. The material of the clothes was slick but not transparent. There was the slight scent of orchids on them. The cloth used to make the bathing clothes wouldn’t be recycled and it was designed for one guest only. They would be burned right after the guest changed clothes.
Not to mention the other costs, just that one aspect alone was tremendously high in cost. It was very extravagant.
Jiang Pengji stepped out of the pool and gently wiped the water droplets off her body. First, she wrapped her breasts tight with a corset band and then put on the snow-white bathing clothes. She made a knot with the band for the bathing clothes at her waist.
Fortunately, the ethos in the current era were still relatively conservative. Barely anyone had a hot spring bath in the nude.
Otherwise, Jiang Pengji would see a bunch of shining, white human bodies. She was not shy, she just couldn’t let her eyes suffer from seeing everyone’s extremely freaky body proportions.
Even though it was just a hot spring hotel, it was still built based on the blueprint of Prince Changshou’s palace. Naturally, it was extraordinarily sumptuous. It wouldn’t be hard to find the pavilion, terrace, porch, garret, veranda, library, and bedrooms based on the architecture.
There were openly designed terraces next to hot spring pools so people could conveniently appreciate the view while they had a drink after their bath.
There were various sizes of hot springs and each of them were separated by exquisite rock barriers, waterside pavilions, or just some pine trees, which kept people’s privacy but still kept it open. It was a special feeling when one was having a bath and looked up to see the sky; it made one feel like it could broaden their mind.
There was dense, steamed air on the surface of the water. Music floated in the air, mixed with laughter and chatting. It sounded like people were frolicking and talking.
In the blurry haze, there were shadows of people toasting to each other and it was just like a fairyland in a human world.
Liu She and Feng Ren were ready a long time ago. One of them was soaking in the hot spring, dozing, and the other one was drinking tea; it seemed like they were discussing some important matters.
Jiang Pengji came over to them, but Liu She told her to walk away. “I’m discussing some critical matters with the Head of the Secretariat. Can you go to another room?”
No joke. It was his daughter, not a son.
Jiang Pengji agreed and let the female servant lead her away to a hot spring that was vacant.
On her way to the hot spring, she spotted several guys in their twenties or younger who were wearing very fine makeup and lipstick. In the mist, their feminine steps made them look graceful. Not only that, but their clothes were intentionally designed to be baggy so they could show off their chests.
She moved her eyes away and secretly turned on the stream. She shouldn’t be the only one suffering; she was obligated to share her pain with her viewers. She gave herself a like for her action but the viewers in the streaming room were speechless.
The original idea was that she was going to shut it down for a day. It was totally unexpected that she turned it on and the first scene they saw was that brutal.
Laosiji Lianmeng: “Host, are you ready to go down that path?”
They didn’t mind seeing their host playing with the pretty boys, but they were not ready for the average looking guys with horrible figures. It was pure torture for them to see a group of guys like that. It was all about their faces and it was definitely ruthless for them.
Dashu Xiaobing: “I’m going to be blind. You are so cruel, host.”
Could one imagine the scene? The viewers could see a twentyish, pig-like guy, whose height almost equaled his waist size. He was walking with a wobble and had orchid fingers.
It was barely okay for him to show off his chest. Where were the abs and the mermaid line? Nowhere! What they saw was fuzzy chest hair, a bulging belly, and loads of fat, along with a retreating hairline.
One Chest: “I suddenly started to feel depressed after I saw this guy’s chest. Compared to mine, it is not fair for me to be a woman. My roommate laughs at me for having such a flat chest, which I had always denied before. But it seems that she wasn’t wrong about my chest. I can only suck it up…”
Tangchao Lizi: “#Drooling. By the way, I don’t think we have ever seen our host’s chest…”
Jiang Pengji raised her brows and walked past the dude who had the nice tits without any expression. About her chest, it was hard to describe.
When she saved Cheng Cheng, she received a reward from the System, which was, “Pretty boobs and an hourglass figure that makes your clothes prettier.” Jiang Pengji had given the System a hard refusal and it compromised by giving her a reward card instead of putting it on her. Of course she didn’t use it. Liu Xi was only twelve and there were still four months before she turned thirteen.
She was still too young to have a use for boobs!
“Please give me some drinks.” She pushed the door, which could barely block anything, and entered the room. There was a small sized hot spring, about five square meters, centered in the room, a female celestial statue posed in a flying position standing in the middle of it. The palm of the statue and the corner of her clothes were both replaced by trays for people to put their drinks on.
The female servant bowed at her and left the room.
Jiang Pengji tested the temperature with her fingers first and then stuck her feet in the water and sat on the side of the hot spring.
There were two fancy, stone lions on the side of the hot spring with trays on the top of their heads for the guests to put food on. The guests could enjoy sitting in the hot spring as they enjoyed their delicacies and the beautiful views around them. Jiang Pengji came from the future, but she had never accepted luxury like that even when she was the head of her own troop. The people in the current era really knew how to treat themselves well. They had a decent life based on their limited resources.
The service in the hotel was thorough. Soon, two pretty, female servants came in one after one with some drinks on trays for her. They gently put them down after they received Jiang Pengji’s permission; they didn’t make any other sound the entire time.
The door was still open and Jiang Pengji could see the scene at the waterside pavilion from her position. She pointed outside her area and asked one of the servants, “Do you provide any special services beside hot spring baths?”
The female servant had a proper grin on her lips and she looked in the direction Jiang Pengji was pointing. Her face turned pale all of a sudden.
The other servant was scared of her saying anything inappropriate; she quickly took over and said with a smile, “If you want, I’m more than willing to serve you too, Langjun.”
The female servants were filtered and particularly selected. There was specific criteria for their appearances, the way they talked, and their manners.
In a place like a hot spring, even though they were properly dressed, it didn’t mean it would slow down men’s desire, especially in a scenario where they barely had any clothes on. Of course, they were all civilized people and they wouldn’t use force with the girls. But it was inevitable for the girls to be teased and taken advantage of.
The female servants were not much more innocent than the call girls in the whorehouses.
Jiang Pengji lifted her lips. She wore a mysterious, frivolous smile.
The girls weren’t certain about what Jiang Pengji meant and they thought the young man in front of them was asking them to provide a special servant. However, Jiang Pengji only took her feet out of the water.
She picked up a bottle of alcohol and opened the seal on it. She lifted her head and drank the alcohol straight from the bottle. The alcohol poured into her mouth. Some of the alcohol dripped from her chin and slid down her neck.
The two female servants were stunned at what they saw. They had never seen any Langjun drink so roughly.
Jiang Pengji looked at them with a pair of clear eyes. “I’m drunk.”
It was finally time for her to cause trouble. The two female servants were completely clueless…
