Chapter 756 - Gu Bailus Game Begins (1/2)

Murong Qing was stunned. “What… What did you say? How can you not marry?”

As a mighty crown prince who was about to become emperor, who would believe that he wasn’t going to marry?

Even Gu Bailu felt that this was a rotten excuse. Lady Murong’s eyes almost popped out. “Your Highness, are you really not going to give the Murong family any face?”

The Murong family wasn’t so easily bullied. If Lu Fenying was going to treat them like this, Lady Murong wouldn’t let him go even if she had to mobilize the entire family. Lu Fenying said calmly, “I’ve said what I have to say.”

His handsome face was expressionless, as if he didn’t care if she believed him or not.

Gu Bailu was confused. Was he telling the truth?

He wasn’t going to marry after taking the throne?

“Fine, fine. Since the crown prince has no sincerity, there’s nothing to discuss. If you can leave Pale Emperor City, it’ll be considered my Murong family’s loss.”

Lady Murong was truly infuriated. Such a terrible excuse was simply looking down on the Murong family. She had protected the Murong family for so many years and paid in blood and sweat. She would never let them be humiliated like this.

Actually, the moment she saw Lu Fenying, she had given up on the idea of making him marry Murong Qingqing.

Qingqing wouldn’t live well if she married such a man.

However, Lady Murong hadn’t expected Lu Fenying to treat the Murong family like some random person.

She stood up and was about to leave, when Gu Bailu stopped her. “My lady, wait. The crown prince might be telling the truth.”

“Miss Gu, do you think the Murong family is easy to bully?”

“Of course not. It’s just that I know the crown prince of Heavenly Wind Empire very well. He never lies. He might really not marry.”

“Even if it’s a lie, you should be smart about it. A ruler of a nation who won’t marry – who are you trying to fool?” Murong Huangtang shouted angrily.

Gu Bailu looked at Lu Fenying. “Is what you’re saying true?”
