That was because Gu Bailu had used salt water as if she was marinating pork, turning the wound white and making it hurt.
Red Wolf was worried for his master, and told on Gu Bailu. “Your Highness, Princess Zi did it on purpose. She used salt water.”
Gu Bailu narrowed her eyes and smiled. “Salt water can quickly stop a wound from getting worse. Do you know that salty pork never goes bad, and that pork without salt becomes rancid in two days? Don’t talk about things you don’t understand.”
Red Wolf knew it was all just sophistry, but he couldn’t argue with her. He was better at fighting than debating.
Lu Fenying frowned. “How is the baby?”
“Your Highness, Miss Qian’er’s condition is stable now, but she’s too weak to be moved. She’s still at the cottage.”
“Bring her back right now.” There was displeasure in Lu Fenying’s eyes.
Helpless, Red Wolf could only go out in the middle of the night to get Qian’er.
Gu Bailu snorted. “You care for the baby so much.”
Lu Fenying raised his head and looked at her. “Do you women have nothing better to do than run about when you’re pregnant?”
Had it not been for the letter from Prince Zi of Southern Glory Empire, he wouldn’t have found out the two women’s identities. They were truly out of control, to travel everywhere while pregnant.
Princess? She didn’t look like a princess at all.
It seemed that Feng Qingtian didn’t have good taste
“It’s because all you men are monsters.” Gu Bailu stood up. “If that’s all, I’m going to bed. Since you know that I’m pregnant, don’t boss me around in the middle of the night.”
Lu Fenying narrowed his eyes as he watched her leave. He couldn’t let Mo Qian’er follow her anymore.
Mo Qian’er was getting bolder and bolder. Not only did she run away, she even stabbed him.
It must be because of this woman; she was a hoodlum, however you looked at her.
It was the next morning by the time Qian’er returned to the crown prince’s residence. She was sent directly to the room next to Lu Fenying’s in the main courtyard.
Qian’er had lived here for almost four years. It was here where all the unpleasant things had happened.
Previously she would tremble and feel stifled when she entered this room, but those feelings were gone now; it was nothing more than a room.
What was there to be afraid of, if she wasn’t afraid of death?
As long as she was alive, she could definitely find another chance to escape and make Su Muwei pay the price.
Most of what Lu Fenying had done was Su Muwei’s idea.
She just needed to lie vulnerable in his arms, and he wouldn’t hesitate to give her his life.
The woman wanted Qian’er’s blood and her baby to cure her, but in the meantime, she hated Qian’er and tortured her in countless ways.
Qian’er didn’t hate her before because she didn’t have the courage to, but she did now.
Gu Bailu checked on her after she got up. She said, “Feng Qingtian may be coming to take me back. I don’t have a lot of time. I have to get the Sky Splitting Mirror, so I may have to use an extreme approach.”
“What is it?” asked Qian’er.
“Do you know what Su Muwei wants and hates most?”
Qian’er nodded. “What she wants most is to get well and be with Lu Fenying as the mistress of this house. What she hates most… is me, but she can’t kill me because she needs me, which she finds intolerable.”
