Godly Farmer Doctor: Arrogant Husband, Can't Afford To Offend! Chapter 567 - Injured

Chapter 567: Injured

Zhou Awu was about to speak when Hu Feng immediately swept his eyes towards him to shut his mouth.

“Then, just apply the medicine like this. Thank you.” He said softly.
Doctor Shen gave him the medicine and left after saying a few more words.
Zhou Awu held back his words for a long time. When he finally found an opportunity to speak, he quickly asked: “Your Highness, why not let me pick up Zhi’er and let her treat you.”
Hu Feng immediately waved his hand: “No, never, ever go to her. Don’t let others know the relationship between Zhi’er and us.”
Zhou Awu couldn’t understand: “Why? You didn’t even send her a letter. Now that you’re injured, you also don’t let her come to treat you. We have regained our power, what else should we worry about?”
Hu Feng said: “Things are not as simple as you think. Right now, although I have the military power in my hands, in this military camp, many people are serving as Prince Xiao’s eyes. They are hiding in the dark. You don’t know who they are. If Prince Xiao learns about Zhi’er, do you think he will let it slide?”
Zhou Awu suddenly made a realization: “No wonder you haven’t written a letter for so long. It turns that you’re afraid of Prince Xiao to find out Zhi’er.”
Hu Feng continued: “This time, there was a stray arrow that suddenly popped up on our side. To avoid this stray arrow, I have no choice but to receive that sword.”
Zhou Awu was shocked. He was still wondering about this. With his royal highness’ martial arts skills, he can obviously fight against that enemy. But in the end, he got injured, it turned out that someone was secretly firing an arrow.
“Damn it, I must find these guys and divide their bodies into five parts.”
Hu Feng waved his hand: “Don’t act rashly. Since now you know that there are ghosts inside, you should catch them quietly. Don’t beat the grass and startle the snakes.”

After Dongfang Mu took Dongfang Wan out of Changyuan Houfu, he didn’t rush to go back to Qiyun Mountain. Instead, he stayed first in their house in the capital and waited for the news about the jade pendant.
He didn’t dare to tell Dongfang Wan about it, fearing that after giving her hope, she would only be disappointed again. Instead of letting this happen, it would be better to let her continue to live a quiet life.
Dongfang Wan was sitting in the yard and basking herself under the sun. Seeing her father coming to have breakfast with her while wearing the clothes he only wears when entering the palace, she couldn’t help but ask: “Dad, are you going to the palace?”
Dongfang Mu nodded his head: “Well, the emperor has something to discuss with me.”
Dongfang Wan was very puzzled: “Dad, you don’t like going to the palace the most. Why do you always go there recently?” Her father clearly said that he would take her back to Qiyun Mountain, but after picking her up, they lived here. He didn’t mention about living in Qiyun Mountain once again. Every time she asked him this, he would make up an excuse. It seems, he was hiding something from her.
Dongfang Mu put down the bowl in his hand and simply said: “Today’s dish is really good, it’s refreshing. I want to eat this again tomorrow. Okay, I’ll go first. If I finish early, I will come back and have lunch with you. If I don’t, you can eat early. Dad will come back at night by then.”
“Dad–” She called him, but Dongfang Mu acted like he didn’t hear it, he quickly walked away.
Her father never tells lies, so when he encounters things he doesn’t want to say or can’t say, he will avoid answering, which made her even more puzzled.
Her father has retired for many years and stopped getting involved in the matter of palace court. So why he kept entering the palace recently? No matter how good his relationship with the emperor, there was no reason for him to enter the palace 2 to 3 days in a row.
Dongfang Wan asked the maidservant on the side: “Is there any rumors in the capital recently?”
The maidservant didn’t know what exactly she wanted to hear, so she asked, “There are a lot of rumors. I don’t know which one the lady wants to know?”
