Meng Ying took Bai Zhi to the inner courtyard of Luochanyuan and entered Bai Zhi's bedroom.

Bai Zhi looked confused, didn't she say she wanted me to take care of the money? What are you doing with me in the bedroom? He was confused in his heart and even more awkward in his behavior.

Meng Ying, dressed in a white shirt, walked gracefully to the bed, sat down on the bed, and then waved to Bai Zhi, "Princess, come here."

I saw Meng Ying's jade hands with clear joints caressing the elegant printed mattress, where she slept every day. There was a smile in his eyes, and he looked a little affectionate.

Bai Zhi started to get a little nervous. Could it be that the price of managing money was to consummate the marriage with him?

I couldn't help but swallow my saliva, feeling that my legs were stiff and I couldn't move. Although the other party was handsome, rich, and so gentle that it was hard to refuse. But this was too sudden, and he was not ready to devote himself yet.

Do you want to refuse? While thinking about it, he couldn't help but take two steps back.

But he and I are a legitimate couple! What's wrong with just consummating a house? You can't find this kind of man even with a lantern, so he should have earned it himself! Well, it's okay, I took two steps forward.

She raised her eyes resolutely and met his deep smiling eyes. They were beautiful, very beautiful, so beautiful that one could fall. The jade-white cheeks were stained with bright red, and then it quickly spread to the base of the ears, which were shockingly hot.

Taking two steps closer, I saw the prayer beads he was holding in his left hand. When I thought about it, he was a monk! Would someone who eats fast and chants Buddha's name all day long do such a thing?

But since he has returned to secular life, this is not a big deal. If he refuses now, will it damage his self-confidence as a man, and he will never recover from the fall and never return to the world of mortals? Then she has sinned too much.

They were so entangled, their hearts were beating wildly, and the only sound in the room except their own heartbeats was each other's breathing.

Meng Ying frowned and said softly: "Princess, what's wrong?"

Bai Zhi was brought back to her thoughts by this soft call and stepped forward hesitantly.

Meng Ying patted the edge of the bed and said, "Sit."

Bai Zhi: "..."

Bai Zhi was at a loss for a moment, her mind was in a blur, and she sat down numbly, sitting on the bedside, one meter away from Meng Ying. His palms were sweating, his whole body was stiff, and he didn't dare to raise his head to look at Meng Ying.

Meng Ying smiled helplessly, leaned forward, and gently took Bai Zhi's delicate jade hand.

A burst of sandalwood drifted from his body, so close that you could even feel the heat of his breath. Bai Zhi straightened her toes, closed her eyes tightly, and let her heart beat wildly.

Meng Ying held her hand, her palms were covered in fine sweat and her fingers were cold. There was some confusion in her heart. Her whole body was stiff and she couldn't pull her at all, so Meng Ying used a little strength to pull her to her side.

This sudden force made Bai Zhi panic, and she yelled out when she was nervous, "Your Majesty! I'm not ready yet!"

While she was shouting, Meng Ying took her hand and suddenly pressed a button on the side of the bed, followed by a clicking sound, as if some mechanism had been opened.

Bai Zhi suddenly realized it and raised her head suddenly. Her mouth opened slightly and she stared at Meng Ying with a pair of extremely panic eyes.

Meng Ying saw her eyes sparkling with tears, and she was a little puzzled. She looked at Bai Zhi doubtfully, "What is the princess not prepared for?"

For a moment, Bai Zhi felt really embarrassed. I'm afraid it's the sequelae of watching too many shitty TV series. What are you thinking about? I can't wait to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it immediately.

The brain has turned around, but the body has not. The expression on his face was still misty with tears, his lips were slightly open, and he was blushing with embarrassment.

The coquettish look on her little daughter's face was clearly exposed in front of Meng Ying's eyes. The scene in front of her was too ambiguous. Meng Ying's body trembled, and her mind was confused for a moment.

The two people's eyes met, their breaths entangled, and Meng Ying's forehead unnoticeably shed a thin layer of sweat.

After being stunned for a long time, Meng Ying came back to her senses, leaned back suddenly, turned around, and asked in a panic: "Princess, are you okay?"

Bai Zhi also came to her senses, and covered her face with both hands. It was too hot, and her face was so hot that it felt like she was going to burn her hands. He concealed his embarrassment and said: "I'm fine, what can happen to me? What does the prince want to take me to?"

Meng Ying took a deep breath, turned the beads in her hand twice, stood up, lowered the gauze curtains on both sides of the bed, lifted the quilt on the bed, and the entrance to a passage was revealed in front of her eyes. She said softly to Bai Zhi: "Princess, come in."

In order to cover up her embarrassment, Bai Zhi got into the quilt with a swish. Meng Ying also got in.

The two of them went down the stairs. Along the way, no one spoke, and no one wanted to mention the embarrassment just now.

It was dark in the passage, and I couldn't see my fingers. Bai Zhi went down first. When she reached the last ladder, due to the different heights of the stairs, she suddenly stepped on the empty space and threw her body forward uncontrollably.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Meng Ying jumped in front of Bai Zhi and grabbed her waist from behind, thus preventing the tragedy from happening.

"Princess, are you injured?"

Bai Zhi, who had just recovered from the shock, took a few breaths and then said: "No...it's okay."

"It's dark here, help me." He did not call himself Sa Lan, but asked Bai Zhi to help him in a strong tone.

Of course Bai Zhi was not polite and hugged his arm.

The two of them had not taken a few steps before Meng Ying stepped on a mechanism, and the surrounding area suddenly became bright.

Bai Zhi was surprised. She didn't expect that there were such foreign things in this era, "What kind of high technology is this! A light bulb?"

"It's the Night Pearl. It's a very simple mechanism, a supporting pillar, and an opening and closing mechanism that wraps the Night Pearl. If the main switch is activated, all other mechanisms will also be activated." Meng Ying said patiently.

Bai Zhi is not interested in these things, but listening to him will find it interesting.

Although she was so excited, she didn't even think of letting go of Meng Ying's arm.

Meng Ying noticed this, and Bai Zhi hugged her so tightly that her arms touched her body. I was a little embarrassed and wanted to take my hand back.

But Bai Zhi came to this dark place. Firstly, she didn't feel safe. Secondly, she was immersed in the excitement of eating his tofu. She didn't notice Meng Ying's movements at all. She only thought it was a normal walking and waving.

Meng Yingqian tried several times but couldn't break free. She didn't want to move too much, so she had to give up and let her hold him.

Passing through a long secret passage with exquisite reliefs carved on both sides, Bai Zhi couldn't help but admire, "Do wealthy families like yours always have secret rooms?"

"Yes. Basically every household has them."

"Wouldn't it be wet underground?"

"Yes. These reliefs are carved to divert water, so that part of the seeping groundwater can be directed away. But this can only solve part of the problem. It also depends on the entrance that can be ventilated to roughly alleviate it. This cannot be solved completely, so we are not Things that are prone to moisture and mold will be placed in underground secret rooms.”

"Oh I got it."

No matter what Bai Zhi asked, Meng Ying would explain it to him in detail.

At the end of the secret passage is a locked iron gate. Meng Ying opened the door with the key, and then put the key in Bai Zhi's hand, "Princess, please take good care of it."

Bai Zhi smiled and nodded.

When I opened the door, I saw boxes piled like a mountain. Meng Ying slowly opened some of the boxes. The moment she opened them, the golden light shone brightly, blinding Bai Zhi's eyes.

They were all filled with gold, silver and jewelry. Bai Zhi was so shocked that she couldn't speak. She could only keep saying "Wow! Wow!"

Meng Ying watched her running around with a slight smile, opening this box and looking at that box. Like bees collecting nectar from flowers.

"My lord, do these all belong to you?"

"Yeah." Meng Ying nodded lightly.

"Then you won't have to worry about food and clothing for the rest of your life?"

"Ah."

"I'm so envious!"

"You are a princess, you don't have to worry about food and clothing."

Bai Zhi shook her head and pursed her lips: "This is not mine. But I will definitely work hard to make money and strive to make more than you!"

Meng Ying chuckled, "Okay. Only you, me, and Xiao Yang know about this place. Not even Butler Liu knows about it."

Bai Zhi smiled slyly and nodded, "Don't worry, I won't tell him. I won't tell anyone."

"You can do whatever you want. If it's not enough, the bank still has more."

What he said lightly was enough to shock Bai Zhi for several years.
