The snow was getting heavier, and the cold wind hurt the face.
Red Wolf wanted to discourage him, but he knew that it was useless.
The crown prince had his own way of thinking, so he wouldn’t change his mind.
He could only release the signal flare, hoping that after transmitting the order, they would be able to stop Princess Zi in time.
As Lu Fenying and the others chased them in the snow, Gu Bailu and Feng Qingtian had already been rushing along for two days, and had reached Liangzhou, the border of Southern Glory Empire.
Gu Bailu lifted the heavy curtain and looked out. Although it was winter, it was still lively on the Liangzhou border, with people from the two nations doing business on both sides of the road, like a trade market.
Gu Bailu lowered the curtain and smiled. “We’re back. The plan worked perfectly.”
She almost admired herself for making that beast Lu Fenying suffer – it felt too good.
“Mm, once we enter Southern Glory, he can’t come after us even if he finds out.” Feng Qingtian hugged her and played with her fingers.
“Do you think he’ll touch Qian’er?” Gu Bailu had warned him repeatedly not to touch Qian’er.
“Seeing what a cautious person he is, I think he’ll definitely be suspicious, and touch Mo Qian’er.”
Gu Bailu sneered. “I gave him such a serious warning and he didn’t take it to heart; he clearly doesn’t care about Qian’er at all. Serves him right.”
Lu Fenying rode as fast as he could. The woman in his arms kept trembling, which let him know at least that she was still alive.
He didn’t dare stop.
Now that the witch doctor was gone, he could only look for Gu Bailu.
But just as he was about to reach his destination, the person in his arms suddenly stopped shaking. He hurriedly stopped the horse and patted Qian’er’s face. “Mo Qian’er? Mo Qian’er, wake up!”
Qian’er didn’t react at all. Her face was already purple and swollen like a bun.
Lu Fenying felt under her nose, and his face changed drastically. He slapped Qian’er’s face hard. “Mo Qian’er, wake up! Who allowed you to die?”
He roared a little hysterically. Following behind him, Red Wolf saw that Mo Qian’er was lying motionless in the crown prince’s arms, and wasn’t even twitching anymore.
Red Wolf grew even more tense when he heard the crown prince’s roar.
“Your Highness, Miss Qian’er…” Red Wolf wanted to say something, but didn’t dare.
“Mo Qian’er, how dare you die? I don’t want your baby anymore! If you die, I’ll cut up your baby and feed it to the dogs!” Lu Fenying slapped Mo Qian’er’s face hard.
Red Wolf looked at Mo Qian’er, whose face was gray and swollen. Her whole body looked stiff, her legs sticking out rigidly as she lay in the crown prince’s arms.
“Your Highness… let’s go back,” Red Wolf said.
Lu Fenying rushed back to his residence and threw Mo Qian’er onto the bed. He then took out an elixir from a secret room.
He opened it and was about to feed it to Mo Qian’er, when Red Wolf grabbed his arm and said, “Your Highness, it won’t make any difference to Miss Qian’er anymore. Don’t waste it.”
Lu Fenying glared at him. “She can’t die!”
“Your Highness, Miss Qian’er is dead. This elixir can save your life. You can’t waste it.” Red Wolf pulled him back firmly.
