“What, it seems that Princess Zi doesn’t welcome me?” Lu Fenying asked mockingly.

  Of course she didn’t!

  However, I’m Princess Zi, the representative of Southern Glory Empire. I can’t be petty.

  “Of course you’re welcome. I’ve already prepared a courtyard for you. The view from the pavilion there is especially beautiful, with the lake frozen over. You won’t see anything like it in Heavenly Wind Empire.”


  Lu Fenying looked in that direction. If it were any other season, it would indeed be a beautiful courtyard.

  But staying in Southern Glory Empire in the middle of winter, in a house that was next to a frozen lake and which didn’t have a fire stove, wasn’t beautiful at all!

  The courtyard was next to the lake, and there were no obstructions surrounding it; the windows faced the open air on all sides.

  This was originally Prince Zi’s summer house. It was exquisitely built, and the floor was made of top-quality white jade. Gu Bailu felt that there was no place better for Lu Fenying.

  She had offered him the most luxurious house in Prince Zi’s house.

  He could only blame himself for coming in the middle of winter.

  Gu Bailu told Qian’er about it, and Qian’er smiled in delight. “Lu Fenying has probably never experienced a winter as cold as this. He can’t eat spicy food, or he’ll get pimples.”


  Gu Bailu patted her shoulder. “Tell me more about him. I guarantee that he’ll have an unforgettable winter in Southern Glory Empire.”


  “He doesn’t like salty food. He can’t drink tea at night. If there’s vinegar in the wine, he’ll get drunk after drinking it. He likes to recite poetry and paint. He’ll get angry if someone paints better than he does. He doesn’t like wearing black…… He can’t eat boiled eggs, or he’ll choke. Once, I almost thought he would choke to death.”


  Gu Bailu looked at Qian’er in surprise. She didn’t expect Qian’er to know so much about Lu Fenying.

  Although they had indeed lived together for five or six years, a person like Lu Fenying would definitely be cautious about everything.

  However, from what Qian’er was saying, Lu Fenying had shown Qian’er all the parts of his life.

  There were even many things that could kill him.

  Some of his hobbies could be exploited to take Lu Fenying’s life.

  “Master, why are you looking at me like that?” Mo Qian’er looked at Gu Bailu in confusion.

  “How do you know so much about Lu Fenying?” Gu Bailu smiled and acted casually as she asked the question.

  Qian’er sighed. “I’ve been with him for so long, of course I would know.”


  How could she not? She had once paid attention to everything about Lu Fenying and memorized his preferences.

  She had been afraid of him being unhappy or uncomfortable and wanted him to eat and sleep well; she had served him wholeheartedly.

  She wouldn’t have fled if he hadn’t become increasingly mean toward her, and ultimately wanted to use her baby to save Su Muwei.

  “Do you know that by telling me all this, I can find ways to kill him without anyone knowing?” Gu Bailu smiled at her.

  Qian’er’s face changed slightly. “Is it that serious?”


  “Lu Fenying never held back with you.” Gu Bailu didn’t say anything else.

  Perhaps even Lu Fenying didn’t realize it himself. He didn’t guard against Qian’er at all. After five or six years, he had revealed everything about himself to her.

  He definitely wouldn’t be like this with anyone else.

  A female slave whom he had willingly slept with for five or six years had never been replaced.
