<h4>691 Lu Fenying Is Coming, I Have to Run</h4>


    Gu Bailu was a woman of her word. She said she would bring Qian’er back, and she did.


    Now that Lu Fenying knew that she was dead, she didn’t have to worry about him being her nightmare anymore; she had broken awaypletely.


    To Qian’er, the air smelled of freedom.


    Seeing Gu Bailue in, she smiled brilliantly. “Master, am I dreaming? I’m really back in Prince Zi’s house!”


    Gu Bailu took her hand and sat down. “You’re not dreaming. We’re all back, but I have to tell you something.”


    Qian’er’s face tensed up. “What... what is it?”


    “Don’t be scared. Lu Fenying ising to Southern Glory Empire.” Gu Bailu had to make sure that Qian’er was prepared, in case they gave the game away when Lu Fenying arrived.


    Qian’er’s face changed drastically. She had thought that everything was a beautiful dream just now, but a sudden bolt from the blue woke her up.


    So, it really was a dream?


    And she had now woken up from it.


    Qian’er smiled gloomily. “He caught up so quickly. I didn’t even have time to catch my breath.”


    Gu Bailu had spent so much time and effort to get her out, but it was all for nothing.


    “Su Muwei didn’t say that he knows we faked your death. She only said that he’sing to Southern Glory Empire. Maybe he’s just here for fun. He might not be here for you.” Gu Bailu consoled her.


    Qian’er shook her head. “It’s winter now, and the new year ising. He’s not the sort toe out for fun, and it’s his coronation next month. He won’te to Southern Glory at this time unless it’s important.”


    Qian’er wasn’t optimistic about Lu Fenying’s trip to Southern Glory Empire.


    Lu Fenying might be the crown prince, but he didn’t like socializing. He usually remained in the crown prince’s residence after he returned from court.


    Of course, he wasn’t bored in the crown prince’s residence. He learned the zither, chess, calligraphy and painting, and was good at them.


    He spent the rest of the time abusing Mo Qian’er.


    He forced her to learn the four arts as well, and when Mo Qian’er lost to him in chess, she was punished by kneeling or made to clean the chamber pots.


    Apart from that, he would also watch people y the lute and dance. He didn’t have any other hobbies.


    He had authority, power and strength; he didn’t need to curry favor or draw any powerful or noble families to his side.


    Besides, Heavenly Wind Empire waspletely under his control. He didn’t need any help from Southern Glory Empire.


    So, the only reason he could be in Southern Glory Empire was to capture her.


    However... Qian’er still felt that something wasn’t right. If Lu Fenying really wanted to capture her, he didn’t need toe himself. He had the ve mark flute. Although he couldn’t control her mind from a distance, he could make her suffer in agony and force her to return.


    “My n was so perfect. How did he find out?” At Qian’er’s words, Gu Bailu also felt the situation wasn’t optimistic. It was almost the new year, and Lu Fenying hade to Southern Glory. There was nothing happening between the two countries that was important enough for him toe out.


    Gu Bailu had the most say here, since her man held the most power here.


    “But we don’t know for sure.” Qian’er rebutted her own words. “If he really wants to capture me, he doesn’t have to do it himself. He might being for some important thing.”


    After thinking out loud, she shook her head. “I can’t be scared of him. I have to run now. I can’t stay in Pale Emperor City. I have to be at least 300 kilometers away from the ve mark flute.”


    She stood up and said, “Master, I’m leaving. Whatever he’s here for, I can’t be too close to him.”


    The ve mark flute could control a person’s mind within 300 kilometers. She had to get out of that range.
