If he gave her a title, the noble families would definitely threaten her, which wasn’t a good thing.
If he didn’t give her any status, he could give her whatever she wanted behind closed doors; who would dare say anything?
On the other hand, any wife he had would be registered as part of the royal family, and she couldn’t be a slave.
If he forced the issue and gave her the status of a wife, the noble families would only fight even harder against her and their children, and Mo Qian’er would be attacked on all sides.
After Lu Fenying told Gu Bailu all this, her temper subsided a little.
The fact that he could say all this proved that he had at least considered Qian’er’s identity carefully and not just perfunctorily.
After thinking for a moment, Gu Bailu felt that Lu Fenying was right.
He had yet to become emperor, and even if he did, he would have to deal with numerous ministers. He was the most powerful man, and could give Qian’er a noble title with a single word, but the noble families would indeed kick up a fuss. He couldn’t kill them all.
“Your considerations are reasonable, but a woman needs status to protect herself. If that is the case, how about you give me three conditions to guarantee that Qian’er won’t be bullied?”
Lu Fenying thought for a moment. “I’ve promised Mo Qian’er that I will give her a separate courtyard and have people watch over her so that she’s not disturbed by anyone.”
“That’s just one condition. Second, you have to promise that you won’t abuse her again. You can’t force Qian’er to do anything she doesn’t want. In particular, you can’t let Su Muwei bully her.”
“When did I abuse her?” Lu Fenying frowned.
“I don’t want to talk about the past. Also, you must let Qian’er raise the child when it’s born. You can’t deprive her of her rights as a mother.”
This way, Qian’er would at least have some hope of surviving that quagmire.
Lu Fenying didn’t hesitate. “Alright.”
It was the first time that Gu Bailu felt that Lu Fenying was a man. She quickly got up and wrote a contract.
She made three copies.
“Your Highness, sign here. If you violate the agreement, I’ll take the contract and demand an audience with your country!”
Lu Fenying was very unhappy at her threat, but in order to be able to take Mo Qian’er away, he had to sign it.
After he signed the contract with powerful strokes, Gu Bailu had him put his seal on it as well.
He carried all the royal seals of Heavenly Wind Empire on him. Lu Fenying couldn’t refuse to do it even if he wanted to.
Satisfied, Gu Bailu smiled broadly at the contract, and there was the sense that she hadn’t lost out after selling off a woman.
“Your Highness, you must treat Qian’er well in the future. She’s the only Qian’er in this world. Your tears will be useless if you lose her.”
“I won’t lose her.”
“Losing a person is nothing to be scared of. What’s scary is losing a person’s heart. I hope Your Highness will understand this sooner rather than later.”
Lu Fenying wasn’t in a good mood when he came out of the pink cottage.
It felt like he had been forced by a mother-in-law to sign some pact.
He hated being threatened!
After Lu Fenying left, Gu Bailu went to where Xiao Xiao was staying. Feng Qingtian had sent two imperial doctors to treat him, including the chief doctor.
Xiao Xiao had already woken up. Although he was weak, he could still talk. The two imperial doctors discussed prescriptions with him and felt that they had benefited greatly from it.
His medical skills were indeed more profound than theirs; he was worthy of the title of the best doctor in the world.
Gu Bailu had the imperial doctors leave so that she could speak to Xiao Xiao alone.
Xiao Xiao asked her worriedly, “How is Miss Qian’er?”
