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?”
