She rubbed her belly and was referring to their child, but Feng Qingtian thought that she was talking about herself. He picked her up and said, “Okay, baby, let’s go eat.”


  When Gu Bailu sat down at the table, her eyes were still hazy.

  Feng Qingtian gave the order, and food was served.

  All twenty-four dishes were Gu Bailu’s favorites.

  Gu Bailu drank the soup and praised, “It’s still the cooks here who are good. I’m really not used to Heavenly Wind Empire’s food!”


  Southern Glory Empire was based in the north and had a different type of cuisine to that of Heavenly Wind Empire.

  Heavenly Wind Empire was in the south, where the food was sweet and light.

  She could tolerate it for a few days, but after a month or two, she was sick of it.

  Gu Bailu woke up completely after a mouthful of soup.

  Feng Qingtian ate his food unhurriedly, occasionally giving her food she liked. Gu Bailu asked, “Were there any letters from the crown prince’s residence?”


  “I received a letter saying that Mo Qian’er was already buried. It was in the mountains at first, but she was later dug up and buried in the residence. That should be the end of it,” Feng Qingtian said indifferently.

  He had no particular feelings about Mo Qian’er, but he would help her if that was what Gu Bailu wanted.

  “He dug her up? What is Lu Fenying planning? Does he suspect something?” Gu Bailu was worried.

  As long as Su Muwei did as Gu Bailu said, and fed Mo Qian’er’s body the powder from the 9,999 Spring Harbingers after two days, Gu Bailu’s plan was flawless.

  Lu Fenying wouldn’t notice anything unusual up until Mo Qian’er was buried.

  But what was Lu Fenying doing?

  “The letter only said that they changed the burial site. Wait for tomorrow’s letter; we’ll probably get the latest news then. Don’t worry.”


  “Alright. Qian’er and the others should have arrived. I’ll go see her after dinner.”


  “I already had Qin Shou bring her over. Don’t worry and eat.” Feng Qingtian rubbed her head.

  Gu Bailu kissed him on the back of his hand. “You’re so good, husband.”


  Feng Qingtian pinched her nose. “Hurry up and eat. Stay by my side from now on and I’ll always be good to you.”


  Gu Bailu nodded vigorously.

  After she was done eating half an hour later, Gu Bailu was about to meet Qian’er and the rest, when Ah Luo brought a letter over. “My lady, it’s for you.”


  Looking at the white lotus on the envelope, Gu Bailu immediately realized that this was probably from Su Muwei.

  She hurriedly opened the letter.

  The letter was dated yesterday, and it said that Lu Fenying was coming to Southern Glory Empire.

  It also said to keep an eye on Mo Qian’er and not let her see Lu Fenying at all costs, or Su Muwei would steal Lu Fenying’s slave mark flute and kill Mo Qian’er with it.

  Gu Bailu tensed up when she read the letter, then gave it to Feng Qingtian. “It seems like we’ve been exposed.”


  Feng Qingtian read the letter and was a little surprised. “It doesn’t say that Lu Fenying knows the truth.”


  Gu Bailu shook her head. “The letter doesn’t say that, but Lu Fenying is already on his way to Southern Glory Empire. I haven’t figured out how to get rid of Qian’er’s slave mark.”


  Feng Qingtian comforted her. “Let him come. This is my territory. What can he do? Even if he’s here to investigate Mo Qian’er, just deny it. He can’t produce any evidence.”


  Gu Bailu nodded. “You’re right. He has no proof that we were behind it. Hehe.”


  Gu Bailu met Qian’er in the reception pavilion.

  Qian’er sat in the pavilion in disbelief. She never thought she would return to Prince Zi’s house.
