Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Chapter 307 Does the Prince hope it's true, or does he hope it's a rumor?

Hearing Murong Xue'er's words, Lu Chen smiled faintly and then said, "I didn't say that."

"I was merely telling Miss Murong that my handwriting could be even better."

At this point, Lu Chen placed his pen on the inkstone, seemingly intending to end the conversation there.

Upon seeing this scene, Murong Xue'er was stunned. It couldn't end like this. She still wanted to get information out of Lu Chen. If it ended like this, how could she get information out of him?

Murong Xue'er said, "Your Highness, I would also like to see what your most beautiful handwriting looks like. Is that alright?"

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled and said, "That's probably not a good idea. If Miss Murong says later that I wanted you to take off your clothes, that's not a good idea."

Murong Xue'er smiled gently, "I was just joking with the prince. It was only a partial exposure of my body. As long as I can see the prince's most beautiful handwriting, it's all worth it."

Lu Chen said, "Since you've put it that way, then I won't refuse."

At this point, Lu Chen picked up the brush again and said, "Miss Murong, please take it off as you see fit."

Murong Xue'er asked with a smile, "Where would Your Highness like to write this time?"

Lu Chen said, "On the stomach, the stomach is relatively flat."

As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, Murong Xue'er began to undress in front of him. Upon seeing this, Lu Chen immediately turned around.

"Miss Murong, please undress first, and call me when you're done."

Seeing Lu Chen turn around, Murong Xue'er said with a smile, "I didn't expect Your Highness to be such a gentleman."

Lu Chen said, "What are you saying, Miss Murong? Did you think I was a lecherous man all along?"

Murong Xue'er said, "There are rumors that the prince is fond of beautiful women, but it seems I have misunderstood him."

Lu Chen said, "Miss Murong has not misunderstood. I do indeed have a fondness for beautiful women, but I also have my principles."

As soon as Lu Chen finished speaking, Murong Xue'er's clothes slipped off her shoulders, revealing her white undergarment. Murong Xue'er then gently opened her undergarment, crossed one arm over her chest, and said, "Your Highness, it's alright, you can turn around now."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen turned around and looked at Murong Xue'er without hesitation.

When Lu Chen saw Murong Xue'er reveal her belly and simply cover her upper body with her arms, he was stunned for a moment.

Murong Xue'er's arms were so thin that they couldn't cover her entire body. Seeing her exposed snow-white skin, Lu Chen felt a little restless.

Seeing Lu Chen staring intently at her, Murong Xue'er said with a smile, "What's wrong, Your Highness? Why are you suddenly silent?"

Hearing Murong Xue'er's words, Lu Chen finally came to his senses. He glanced at Murong Xue'er's entire body and then praised her, "Miss Murong has a really good figure. No wonder those scholars and talents were so eager to show off in front of Miss Murong today."

Murong Xue'er said, "Your Highness is joking. My body is not something that anyone can look at as they please."

At this moment, Lu Chen's gaze fell on Murong Xue'er's lower abdomen. When he saw a strange pattern on Murong Xue'er's lower abdomen, Lu Chen was stunned for a moment.

He originally intended to write on Murong Xue'er's stomach, but since there were already other designs, he couldn't put pen to paper.

At this moment, Murong Xue'er lay down on the bed and then said, "Your Highness, please begin writing."

Lu Chen glanced at the strange pattern again, then said, "Miss Murong, there's a strange pattern on your stomach. I don't know where to begin drawing."

Murong Xue'er said, "I'm sorry, Your Highness, I almost forgot, my virginity mark is still there."

Lu Chen asked in confusion, "What is a 'guardian' mark?"

Murong Xue'er countered, "Has Your Highness ever heard of the 'virginity mark'?"

Lu Chen replied, "I've heard of it. Could this be a type of 'virginity mark'?"

Lu Chen has been in this world for so many years, so he naturally knows about the "virginity mark". In this world, it is said that there is a red dot on a woman's arm, and the red dot will disappear when the woman loses her virginity.

Of course, the virginity mark is not something a woman is born with. It is said that when a woman is born, a special method is needed to leave a virginity mark on her arm.

Although Lu Chen knew what the virginity mark was and what its function was, this was the first time he had ever seen it drawn on the lower abdomen. Moreover, the virginity mark was not a red dot, but a strange pattern.

Murong Xue'er then said, "Yes, His Majesty personally implanted this virginity mark on me. Every time I return to the palace, His Majesty personally examines my body."

Hearing this, Lu Chen smiled and said, "So, the rumors circulating outside that Miss Murong keeps male concubines are just that—rumors?"

Murong Xue'er looked into Lu Chen's eyes and asked with a smile, "Does Your Highness hope it's true, or just a rumor?"

Lu Chen didn't answer; instead, he changed the subject, asking, "Can virginity marks be removed?"

Murong Xue'er replied, "It can't be washed off. It will only disappear on its own when I lose my virginity."

Lu Chen said, "I see. It seems to be based on the same principle as the 'virginity mark'."

Lu Chen sighed and then said, "It seems that Miss Murong will not be able to see my best calligraphy today."

Murong Xue'er asked, "Why is that?"

Lu Chen said, "With the guardian spirit mark on it, I can't possibly write anything on it, can I?"

Murong Xue'er said calmly, "If Your Highness feels that these patterns are hindering your writing, then why don't you simply remove them?"

At this point, Murong Xue'er's eyes were fixed on Lu Chen's eyes. Murong Xue'er didn't seem to have any seductive intentions, but the way she was lying on the bed with her arms crossed over her chest, coupled with her encouraging words, made it almost impossible for any man to resist.

Leprechaun!

What a vixen!

Without saying a word, Lu Chen waved his hand, and the brush in his hand flew out instantly, landing precisely on the inkstone on the desk, without spilling any ink from the tip.

Lu Chen immediately lunged at Murong Xue'er, bracing his arms on either side of her head and looking into her eyes as he said, "Miss Murong, there's no going back in this world."

Lu Chen's sudden approach made Murong Xue'er's heart race. Although Lu Chen hadn't touched her body yet, the way he looked down at her still gave her a huge sense of pressure, which made her restless all over.

Murong Xue'er forced herself to remain calm and said, "As long as I can see Your Highness's best calligraphy, I think it's all worth it."

Lu Chen chuckled, then bent down and removed Murong Xue'er's jade arm from her body.

Although Murong Xue'er had prepared herself, when Lu Chen's large hand came down and touched her wrist, she couldn't help but try to cover her body with her arm.

Unfortunately, Lu Chen's hands were stronger, and he directly removed her hands and pressed them to the sides of her head.

Without hesitation, Lu Chen leaned down and kissed the red lips of the talented woman of Dayue, who was known as the Prime Minister of the Inner Palace.
