Prince Lu smiled every time he saw her, as if he was encouraging her.
Xiu’er was furious. She was determined to seduce Lu Fenying.
Lu Fenying naturally knew what Xiu’er was thinking. He had originally wanted to chase her away, but after thinking about it, he realized that with Xiu’er by his side, he might be able to make Mo Qian’er upset. Also, Xiu’er’s culinary skills were really good.
She stayed by his side the whole time.
As for Mo Qian’er, it was very simple. She lived her own life and only cared about Crown Prince Lu.
That was her attitude toward Lu Fenying. You’re my master, I’ll listen to your instructions. If you have none, I’ll live my own life.
Although Lu Fenying was indifferent to Prince Lu, he personally taught him to understand national affairs and how to handle politics, and also taught him martial arts.
Mo Qian’er told Prince Lu in private, “Your father has a cold temperament. It has to do with his childhood. However, he treats you very well. Don’t judge a person by their appearance.”
Prince Lu pursed his lips. “Since you taught me that, you should also know if he treats you well or not.”
How could Mo Qian’er not know if Lu Fenying treated her well or not?
Of course he did. At the very least, she was living a comfortable life now. She didn’t have to worry about anything, and could spend her days basking in the sun if she wanted.
She had already found the totem of the dragon race, and her life would be perfect after she watched Prince Lu ascend the throne.
As for how Lu Fenying felt about her, she didn’t even think about it.
In the end, Lu Fenying was a safe place for her, and someone her son could rely on.
Even though Xiu’er had been by his side for so many years, he had never had any other thoughts about her.
As the saying went, time would tell. She was satisfied with the current situation.
“That’s a good mindset. Everyone has a different way of expressing their feelings. Although Lu Fenying didn’t give you a position or treat you warmly, you’re the only one in the harem…”
Mo Qian’er nodded.
Gu Bailu didn’t say anything else. Lu Fenying had hurt Mo Qian’er too much in the past, and it was impossible to let bygones be bygones.
But time always erased a lot of things.
Did Lu Fenying love Mo Qian’er?
Even Prince Lu could see that if a man didn’t like a woman, how could he be willing to remain true to her for six years without giving other women a chance?
Prince Lu was very happy to receive his friends’ gifts on his birthday. Although he was an adult in his heart, he had accepted the fact that he was a kid after a few years.
Now that he was following Lu Fenying around to handle matters, Heavenly Wind Empire was gradually changing.
He had already started the imperial exam system in Heavenly Wind Empire, and slaves were given status. In particular, he championed the abolition of slavery and changed the system to life and death contracts.
Lu Fenying ruled with an iron fist. He was simple and brutal, and the noble families had long been suppressed by him.
After Crown Prince Lu’s sixth birthday, he officially started to govern the country.
Lu Fenying wasn’t careless either. He gave Crown Prince Lu power, and wasn’t afraid that the crown prince would mess things up.
In any case, the whole country belonged to him. So what if he did something wrong?
It was only two months after Crown Prince Lu started governing the country when Mo Qian’er suddenly fainted.
Prince Lu was so scared that he didn’t even care about the morning court assembly. His mother was in good health, so why had she suddenly fainted?
His father was also at his mother’s palace every day.
The imperial doctor hurried over, and the diagnosis was that Mo Qian’er was pregnant.
Lu Fenying sat by the bed and didn’t speak for a long time, his handsome face still expressionless.
However, Crown Prince Lu seemed to see a flash of light in his father’s eyes, which quickly disappeared.
