Godly Farmer Doctor: Arrogant Husband, Can’t Afford to Offend! - Chapter 1164
Chapter 1164: Eating inside and out
Fu Zheng threw the letter on the table and scolded angrily: “What a scum, eating inside and out. No wonder the battle in the Northwest War was lost so strangely. It turns out this General Xiao has long been in collusion with the people of Xiye Kingdom .”
Zhou Awu frowned and asked: “What should we do now? Look at the meaning of this letter, are they planning to attack the emperor?”
Fu Zheng nodded: “It should be.”
Zhou Awu was puzzled: “Why are they doing this? What good would it do them? Even if something happened to the emperor, there would be another prince sitting on the throne. How could someone like Xiye Kingdom cause such a big disturbance?” !”
Fu Zheng said: “Haven’t you read the historical records? There was an emperor in the early Chu who died violently just three months after he ascended the throne. At the same time, a concubine who was not very favored was diagnosed pregnant, and the concubine’s maternal family took advantage of the situation to be regent and control the court.”
“Isn’t this absurd? The child has not yet been born, and the gender is unknown. Even if you know it is a boy, what is it to make a baby the emperor?”
Fu Zheng: “The point is not that this baby becomes the emperor. The point is that the concubine’s maternal family took the opportunity to become the regent and control the court. The emperor, who had been a puppet emperor all his life, only found out when he was forty years old that he was not of royal blood, but a child brought in by the concubine’s family from outside to control the court.”
“Where is the child born to that concubine?” Zhou Awu asked.
Fu Zheng shook his head: “There is no pregnancy at all, where will the child come from?”
Zhou Awu was stunned, “So, if they harm the emperor, they can also let Concubine Xiao pretend to be pregnant, and the Xiao family will be the regent in one fell swoop?”
Fu Zheng’s face was gloomy, and a cold light flashed in his eyes: “They think that if they dare to touch the emperor, their youngest son enjoys family happiness.”
The other princes were not particularly outstanding. Dongfang Mu, who used to dominate the court, has also completely retired, and no longer cares about political affairs. If something happens to the emperor, it was really hard to say who will have the final say in the court.
“Brother Fu, I want to chase after the emperor.” Zhou Awu said.
Fu Zheng raised his eyes to look at him, shook his head, and chuckled softly: “Do you think I don’t know what you think, kid? You indeed want to see the emperor, but you want to see Miss Bai more, right?”
Mentioning Bai Zhi, Zhou Awu’s eyes turned red, he sighed, said nothing, just bowed to Fu Zheng, turned around, and left.
For him, Bai Zhi was a close relative. In the shipwreck three years ago, he wished he could die for her.
Day and night, he blamed himself for being incompetent and unable to protect her well. Something happened to her, and even her body could not be found.
Every time his daughter, Ru’er asked about Bai Zhi, he didn’t know how to answer.
Now that she came back, he wished he could fly to her side immediately without saying anything. Just to see her was enough, as long as she was safe.
Fu Zheng didn’t stop him, he knew it was useless to stop him. Even if it was the emperor’s order, Zhou Awu would still go his way, it was already very difficult to stay until now.

In Qi Yunshan
Bai Zhi was sitting in the courtyard talking with Dongfang Wan. After a month or so, Dongfang Wan’s complexion looked much better, as if a withered flower had suddenly regained its vitality.
Those eyes that had been dimmed for three years finally regained their brilliance.
“Mother, it’s time to drink the medicine.” Bai Zhi brought the medicine that the maidservant handed to Dongfang Wan.
