649 Lu Fenying“s Scheme
What frightening possessiveness.
Feng Qingtian said, “I think there’s another possibility…”
Gu Bailu asked anxiously, “What other possibility?”
“Give Qian’er the right to stay by his side and shut the mouths of those n.o.bles.”
Gu Bailu shook her head. How could Qian’er be given the right to stay by his side? She was a slave with a slave mark.
It was impossible to change one’s cla.s.s just because he was the intimidating crown prince.
“Why won’t he consider letting Qian’er go and making a deal with us?” Gu Bailu couldn’t figure out what Lu Fenying was thinking.
Was it truly love? How could love be so torturous?
She saw Qian’er’s wounds every day. Some were bruises, some were love bites, and some were signs of abuse.
Could it be that Lu Fenying was a pervert? The more he liked her, the more he tortured her.
“Some people are convinced that what’s theirs is theirs, and n.o.body can take it away from them. Lu Fenying is such a man. That’s why Su Muwei can live in the crown prince’s residence without a t.i.tle. n.o.body in the Su family can object.”
That was right. Lu Fenying was this tough. He kept Su Muwei in the crown prince’s residence, but hadn’t given her any status. Wasn’t that strong possessiveness?
Then why didn’t he marry Su Muwei?
Although Su Muwei wasn’t in good health, she had a n.o.ble bloodline and outstanding spiritual energy; she was a genius who had been revered since childhood.
If Lu Fenying truly loved her, why didn’t he marry her?
Gu Bailu didn’t believe that anything could stop Lu Fenying from doing so.
It could only be because he didn’t want to marry her.
“Then, what can he do to keep Qian’er by his side?”
Gu Bailu thought of a possibility, and her expression turned even more awful.
Feng Qingtian touched her face and said, “If you’re really worried, let’s follow him to the royal palace. I think it’s likely that that is his destination.”
“Okay.” Naturally, Gu Bailu agreed. After all, she had never visited the royal palace of Heavenly Wind Empire.
Feng Qingtian summoned Qin Shou. “Prepare a carriage.”
Feng Qingtian had come to Heavenly Wind Empire without hiding anything. The royal palace of Heavenly Wind Empire knew that he was here, and n.o.body dared to disturb him because he had been living in the crown prince’s residence.
So, he entered the palace without a hitch. He gave the guards his token, and they prepared to let him pa.s.s.
Feng Qingtian asked again, “Has the crown prince just arrived?”
“He has,” the guard said respectfully.
Feng Qingtian turned around and looked at Gu Bailu. “He really did come to the royal palace, and didn’t quietly send her away. Things don’t look good.”
Gu Bailu clutched Feng Qingtian’s sleeve. “I hope it’s not what I think it is.”
Feng Qingtian couldn’t comfort her, because he felt that she was probably right.
Lu Fenying could be ruthless toward anyone, including himself.
The royal study of Heavenly Wind Empire had eight golden dragon pillars.
Lu Fenying carried Qian’er into the study unhindered.
The maids in the distance couldn’t help but hide and whisper among themselves. “Who’s the woman the crown prince is carrying? She seems ill. Is it Miss Su?”
“I don’t think so. I saw Miss Su once, and she’s really skinny.”
“This woman is slim, but not abnormally so, like Miss Su.”
“Could it be… the female slave that everybody is talking about?”
