"Zhong Mingwei, I'm so scared now," Meiya took a deep breath. Then she looked at Meiya with a bit of pity, "You taught me court etiquette several times a few days ago, but now my mind is a mess. I can't remember anything. What should I do? If I make a mistake in front of the emperor, will I..."
Meiya couldn't continue. She swallowed hard, looking like a frightened deer, looking very pitiful.
"It's okay. Just follow me," Zhong Mingwei held Meiya's hand and said softly. "The emperor summoned us back to Beijing to attend the funeral of the empress dowager. Don't worry about anything else. Today we will go to the palace to pay our respects to the emperor, and then kneel down to pay our respects to the empress dowager. Then we can leave the palace. It will only take an hour at most."
"One hour? That's so long!" Mei Ya was almost crying with worry. Then she seemed to remember something and raised her chin towards Zhong Mingwei. She asked, "Zhong Mingwei, can you still see the scar on my chin?"
"No, there's no trace at all." Zhong Mingwei looked at the delicate white chin and the girl's dark eyes. The more he looked, the more he liked her. He leaned over to kiss her, but the girl pushed him away. The man who failed to steal her love was very frustrated, "What's wrong? You won't even let me kiss you?"
"I spent half an hour at the dressing table early in the morning to paint this chin. You know that," Mei Ya rolled her eyes at him and said, "If you dare to touch the powder on my face, I'll show you how I'll deal with you!"
"I know. We'll kiss each other when we get home." Zhong Mingwei said dejectedly.
"Oh, Mingwei," Mei Ya suddenly seemed to remember something. She looked around first, then leaned close to Zhong Mingwei's ear and whispered, "Where are the people sent by General Chi now? Have they arrived in the capital?"
"We're here," Zhong Mingwei nodded and said in a deep voice, "I originally wanted them to go directly to the palace and pretend to be guards or servants, but I didn't know that my father had already sent the Imperial Guards to our palace to station there. It's not easy for these brothers from southern Xinjiang to enter the palace. I have sent them to settle down in various places in the capital. By the way, the leader is now living near the house where Mr. Chen and Miss Gu live. Let's find a place to meet him in a few days to discuss the situation in the capital."
"I don't know how Mr. Chen did in the exam this time," Mei Ya said a little worriedly, "and Miss Gu, I don't know if she can get used to living in the capital."
"Or, when we have time one day, let's go and see Mr. Chen and Miss Gu in casual clothes?" Zhong Mingwei said.
"Hehehe! I've been waiting for you to say that!" The next second, the girl's red lips were imprinted on the man's cheek. Before the man could react, she sat back down, covering her face with her hands, revealing only a pair of dark eyes, looking at the man cunningly, "Hehe, you can't kiss me! You can't kiss me anywhere!"
"Who said that?" Zhong Mingwei laughed dumbly, then he leaned over and grabbed the girl's white and tender hands and kissed them hard a few times, "Here we are."
"You...you...you go away, don't sit so close to me," Meiya stretched out her hand to push him away, muttering softly, "I'm nervous, don't mess with me."
Zhong Mingwei couldn't help laughing again when he saw her coy little appearance. When he was about to speak, the carriage paused and then stopped.
"Your Highness, Princess, we're here." Pang Yi's voice came from outside.
"I know," Zhong Mingwei said in a deep voice. When he looked at Meiya again, he found that Meiya was completely stiff. She looked really nervous. Zhong Mingwei couldn't help but feel distressed. He reached out and held Meiya's hand, saying softly, "Didn't we agree on this? You don't have to think about anything. Just follow me steadily."
