Chapter 782 Isn’t that too easy for them?

Mingzhu went to the kitchen to serve today's dinner.

The people in the kitchen asked her one after another why the eldest lady was carried back to the palace by His Royal Highness Prince Chen when she was clearly engaged to Lord Qing.

Mingzhu said coldly, "The eldest lady and Lord Qing have already discussed breaking off the engagement, and you are not allowed to gossip about it."

"If I knew, I would definitely tell the young lady. At that time, it would not be enough to just beg for mercy."

"We are concerned about the young lady. We want to know if it is really destined that the young lady and Prince Chen will take you down?"

"Go, go, go, what should be said and what should not be said, we are servants and should not discuss the master."

Mingzhu came out of the kitchen carrying two side dishes, a bowl of soup and a bowl of rice.

Really, who dares to talk about the eldest lady?

However, the Prince of Chen has brought the eldest daughter back with him, and since physical contact between men and women is not allowed, His Royal Highness the Prince of Chen should be responsible, right?

Why did the eldest lady say that there was nothing between her and His Royal Highness Prince Chen? She said that His Royal Highness Prince Chen was not moved at all?

Thinking of this, Mingzhu had already returned to the yard and hurriedly brought food into the house, "Miss, today we have stir-fried dishes and a bowl of mushroom stewed chicken soup."

Xie Ying closed his eyes and rested. When he heard Mingzhu's voice, he opened his eyes and asked, "Where are the storybooks I bought before?"

"Miss, do you want to see it again?"

"Well, I'm afraid I'll have to lie in bed for a few days to kill time."

Mingzhu responded, "Okay, I'll go get it for you after you finish your dinner."

"Ah."

Mingzhu brought a small stool, placed it on the bedside cabinet, and then fed Xie Ying bit by bit.

Mingzhu hesitated for several times, but still relied on her status as the head maid to ask, "Miss, I heard what you just said to the second young lady."

Xie Ying smiled slightly. Mingzhu was in the room at that time and was not deaf, so of course she could hear it.

Mingzhu continued, "Since the prince embraced the young lady, he should be responsible, right?"

"Of course not." Xie Ying smiled and said to her, "If men and women want equality, then if they can get married just by looking at each other's ankles or hugging each other, then that's a mess. If men hug a few girls on the street, then they have to marry them home, right?"

Mingzhu frowned, "Wouldn't that be a bargain for them?"

"So, holding hands, hugging, kissing, and even getting married, if the relationship is not harmonious, you can still divorce. Not to mention, the prince is as calm as water and has no feelings for me." Xie Ying sighed and continued, "A forced melon is not sweet."

"I understand, but I also heard that in the future, women can take the initiative to pursue any man they like. Miss likes the prince, so after the engagement is cancelled, why don't you pursue him openly?"

While asking, he fed Xie Ying.

After Xie Ying swallowed two mouthfuls, he said, "I have pursued her."

She plucked up her courage today, leaning on the young man's chest, listening to his strong and powerful heartbeat like a drum, and placing her passionate heart in the young man's palm, but he still seemed indifferent.

After meal.

Mingzhu indeed found the notebook that had been sealed for a long time.

Xie Ying picked out a few books that were not so sexually explicit and only talked about love.

Mingzhu didn't disturb them. She just quietly lit a few more candles and then tidied up the room.

"Pearl..."

"Hey, Miss, I'm here."

Mingzhu came over with a feather duster, "What's wrong, Miss?"

Xie Ying read the description in the book, when a man and a woman are in love, the heartbeats that beat as fast as drums are because they like each other and are attracted to each other...

"Come here, let me listen to your heartbeat."

Mingzhu didn't understand.

But he did it anyway, sat on the edge of the bed, opened his arms and put his chest close to the lady's ear.

Xie Ying hugged Mingzhu and put her chest as close to his ear as possible, and then he heard the pounding heartbeat. However, the speed of that heartbeat was not as fast as Xiao Chen's when she was in the carriage today.

Mingzhu's chest was rubbed by the young lady's ear, her face turned red, and her voice became hoarse, "Young lady...are you ready?"

Xie Ying let go of Mingzhu, "I heard the heartbeat of His Royal Highness Prince Chen today. His heartbeat was very fast!"

"How fast?"

“Boom boom boom boom, very quickly…”

Mingzhu said, "Then let me listen to the lady's heartbeat."

Xie Ying nodded.

Mingzhu heard Xie Ying's heartbeat and imitated it, "Boom-boom-boom-boom..."

"My lady's heartbeat is not fast. It's not as fast as the one I'm trying to imitate His Royal Highness Prince Chen, who is beating like a drum."

Xie Ying smiled slightly, then showed the storybook to Mingzhu, "The storybook says that a fast heartbeat is a sign of excitement or heartbeat."

Mingzhu was stunned for a moment, then shook her head, "No, no, no, that's not right..."

"What's wrong?" Xie Ying was a little discouraged. "What's wrong?"

"My dear young lady, when the prince was holding you, why was he so excited? Wasn't he just moved? The prince might not be as unattractive to women as we think. At least, the prince certainly doesn't hate you, young lady. Otherwise, he would never send you to the Imperial Hospital and then send you back from there!"

"Even if he was forced by the emperor's pressure, he would not send you back. Moreover, if a noble person like the prince is supported, he would never bend his knees even if the emperor oppressed him!"

Xie Ying looked at Mingzhu in disbelief, "Really, really..."

"of course it's true!"

Xie Ying's heart was pounding. She covered her chest with her hands, feeling very excited. "My heart is beating so fast, just like his heart was beating at that time."

Thinking of this, Xie Ying's face turned red.

Mingzhu saw it all, "My dear young lady, the emperor is right, the eldest son is right, the second young lady is right, and Doctor Lan is also right. Young lady, don't back down anymore. You even dare to cancel the engagement. What's wrong with pursuing the prince?"

Xie Ying looked at Mingzhu's excited facial features, as if she had already entered Xiao Chen's heart.

"me……"

"Let's take a step back and say that even if the prince is truly devoted to Buddhism and Taoism, he will not ruin you even if you do something out of line. If it really comes to that, it won't be too late for us to retreat!" Mingzhu was worried about the eldest lady.

Xie Ying suddenly realized and looked at Mingzhu, "I, I will pursue him."

Mingzhu nodded. Yes, "Be more explicit, even if it's just a subtle seduction."

Mingzhu pointed at the storybook and said, "Didn't the young lady always say that the girls in the storybooks are charming in every move, whether intentionally or unintentionally? Young lady, you have read so many storybooks, why don't you learn a few tricks from them!"

Xie Ying blushed, "Go, don't say anything."

"Miss, I feel sorry for you because I see you change from a heroic young lady to a timid and depressed young lady." Mingzhu was even more certain, "As expected, only by following your own wishes can you live a meaningful life."
