However, she had no choice. Mr. Xiao said that the baby couldn’t be treated until he grew up.
Mo Qian’er looked at the baby, who was having trouble breathing, and covered him with a thin blanket. Although it was warm in the carriage, the wind still blew in.
Sitting opposite her, Lu Fenying looked at her nervous and pitiful appearance and reached out to hold the baby.
“I’ll hold the baby. You sleep,” Lu Fenying ordered.
Mo Qian’er hadn’t fully recovered yet and she still needed to rest. If it wasn’t for the fact that the matter in Heavenly Wind Empire couldn’t wait any longer, he wouldn’t be in such a hurry to return.
Mo Qian’er frowned. “Your Highness, you don’t know how to take care of the baby. Just give him to me.”
She smiled faintly. “He’s small and weak – how heavy can he be?”
How could Lu Fenying, who wanted to set out despite the risk to the baby, care about him, let alone attend to him well?
The baby would only suffer more if Lu Fenying held him.
“Mo Qian’er, I told you to sleep, so just sleep. Don’t talk nonsense with me.” Lu Fenying looked at the baby in his arms. Although the baby was a little sick, his life definitely wasn’t in danger.
There was no way that Dragon Spirit Blood wouldn’t be able to protect a baby.
If the baby hadn’t been poisoned in Mo Qian’er’s womb, he could’ve grown up no matter how weak he was, with Dragon Spirit Blood.
Lu Fenying’s eyes darkened with terrifying killing intent.
Those who harmed his baby would pay the price.
He was in a hurry to ascend the throne because he knew that he needed a higher status in order to avenge his child.
The people of Heavenly Palace Cliff were all experts who had cultivated into becoming immortals and had reached great heights in their spiritual power.
To deal with these immortals, what he needed wasn’t profound spiritual power, but status.
So, he had to hurry up and ascend the throne; only when he became emperor could he oppose the heavens.
Looking at him, Mo Qian’er knew that he was in a bad mood and didn’t dare refuse.
She said to the wet nurse next to her, “The crown prince doesn’t have any experience with children. Take care of the baby.”
The wet nurse hurriedly replied with a smile, “Don’t worry, Miss Qian’er. The crown prince feels sorry for the baby. He’ll definitely take good care of it. Rest assured, and sleep.”
How many men in the world were like the crown prince, willing to hold a baby?
“Impudent!” Lu Fenying didn’t appreciate her help and continued angrily, “What do you mean by ‘feel sorry’ for the baby? This baby is the young crown prince. You don’t even understand his identity. What use is it to keep you around?”
The wet nurse fell to her knees in fear. “I… I was wrong. Please forgive me, Your Highness…”
Lu Fenying narrowed his eyes. “You would be dead if you didn’t still have some use.”
“I deserve to die. I… I won’t do it again.”
The wet nurse felt she was innocent. She didn’t know that the crown prince would like this son so much. After all, the baby wasn’t born from an official wife, and the mother was just a maid.
It seemed that the baby would have a bright future.
The wet nurse served the little crown prince even more carefully.
However, she was also worried. Would such a little prince grow up healthy?
Qian’er lay on the wide couch in the carriage, but couldn’t fall asleep. She looked at Lu Fenying in surprise, and wondered what he was thinking.
On one hand, he didn’t like the baby, but on the other, he had casually made him the young crown prince.
Lu Fenying was about to ascend the throne, and conferring this title was equivalent to determining the baby’s future position.
