Divine Doctor Mommy Is A True Big Shot-Chapter 679: Wu Family (Part 1)

Even Feng Zhao’an, who was always adept at observing words and colors, did not know what the other party was truly thinking.

Feng Zhao’an thought for a moment, then walked to Feng Zhanlian’s side.

"Father, now that Feng Mansion has declined and only the two of us, father and son, depend on each other for survival, we must unite and work together," Feng Zhao’an said.

"As your son is currently working under the Crown Prince and since the Crown Prince is the future ruler, he could help our Feng Mansion rise again."

When mentioning the Crown Prince, Feng Zhao’an’s eyes flickered slightly. The person he truly valued was Dugu Wu who, in his view, was much more talented than the Crown Prince. Unfortunately, due to Feng Bailing, Dugu Wu was always unwilling to trust him.

Thinking of this, Feng Zhao’an felt an increased resentment towards Feng Bailing.

"You are working under the Crown Prince; tell me, father, what is the current situation in Great Chu?" asked Feng Zhanlian meaningfully.

Feng Zhao’an then broadly explained the current situation of Great Chu.

"Although His Highness the Crown Prince is indeed the Crown Prince, the Emperor is still in his prime. When the Crown Prince was incapacitated early on, the Emperor favored Dugu Wu. Now that Dugu Wu is disabled, the Crown Prince has had the opportunity to rise. However, the situation in the palace has recently changed; a Noble Consort Dugu has come, and she is deeply favored by the Emperor. Additionally, Noble Consort Guo is pregnant. As for Noble Princess Consort Xiao and the Seventh Prince, they are of no account."

In just a few words, Feng Zhao’an clarified the broad situation of Chu City.

"Feng Zhan Tian once mentioned that he has gained the favor of Noble Consort Dugu, and is now in charge of the wine taverns and tea houses in Chu City. Be alert to this matter; if Noble Consort Dugu seeks you out, do not assist her," Feng Zhanlian said, nodding slightly, merely giving a hint without further explanation.

"Father, about the matter of Feng Zhan Tian buying the wine taverns and tea houses in the city at the behest of Noble Consort Dugu, should we inform His Highness the Crown Prince?"

"If the Crown Prince cannot handle even this much, he will certainly not become the next ruler. Pretend you are unaware."

Feng Zhao’an turned and left, while Feng Zhanlian shook his head.

"A good bird chooses the tree it perches on; Feng Zhao’an has chosen the wrong branch. If I’m not mistaken, a great change is looming over Chu City."

Feng Zhanlian’s gaze flickered slightly, looking towards the dark night outside.

The night was as calm as water, with everything happening at Feng Mansion silently, unknown to the outside world. However, not far from Feng Mansion on the same street inside the Princess’ Mansion.

Nanny Su opened the door and saw Mr. Li sitting desolately beside Dongfang Lianhua’s bed.

The man’s gaze was fixed on Dongfang Lianhua, unwavering.

Nanny Su couldn’t help but sigh softly, moving forward to set down the food box.

"Mr. Li, you should have some food first, you haven’t eaten all day," Nanny Su said caringly.

Since Feng Bailing agreed to let Mr. Li stay and watch over Dongfang Lianhua, he had been by her side constantly.

Though he knew his company made no practical difference, as Dongfang Lianhua showed no signs of awareness presently.

"Nanny Su, I can’t eat."

Mr. Li looked at Dongfang Lianhua on the bed, anxious, although Feng Bailing had Nanny Su continuously prepare medicinal soups for Dongfang Lianhua.

Dongfang Lianhua had been unconscious for a while and showed no signs of change, but seeing Dongfang Lianhua so still, Mr. Li was still very anxious.

He did not know how much longer he would need to wait like a watchman for Elder Wu.

If the Wu Clan people did not show up, Mr. Li couldn’t help feeling restless.

"Mr. Li, looking like this, the Princess, if she were awake, would be heartbroken too. I know the Princess’s heart better than anyone, being by her side; she is reticent by nature. Although she says nothing, she indeed cares deeply for you. She has always refused to accept you because she didn’t want to embarrass you, always feeling unworthy of you since she has had children and been divorced."

Nanny Su sighed, her heart ached for both the Princess and Mr. Li. She too knew the pain of lovers who couldn’t be together, having loved dearly with Mr. Su Wang’s father, who died early, separating them like heaven and earth.

But even so, she could never forget Su Wang’s father.

"Nanny Su, is everything you said true?"

Upon hearing this, Li Mubei couldn’t help but feel delighted. He had always been uncertain about Dongfang Lianhua’s feelings towards him, but tonight, after Nanny Su’s words, he became even more determined about his feelings for Dongfang Lianhua.

He decided in his heart that if Dongfang Lianhua woke up, he would propose to her no matter what.

"Mr. Li, you should go rest now, I’ll keep watch here."

Fearing that Li Mubei might be worried, Nanny Su added,

"This time I will be vigilant and won’t let anyone take advantage again."

Nanny Su recalled being ambushed before and still felt some lingering fear.

Li Mubei shook his head.

"Nanny Su, you shouldn’t blame yourself, you are only a commoner, and if people from the Wu Clan really come, you couldn’t defend against them."

Under Nanny Su’s repeated urging, Li Mubei went to the next room, planning to rest for a while.

In the deep of the night, when all was quiet, Nanny Su sat beside Dongfang Lianhua’s bed.

In the silent night, suddenly a dark shadow appeared outside.

Nanny Su only saw a blur before her eyes, she wanted to scream, but her body went limp and she fell to the ground.

A figure had entered the room.

The person saw Dongfang Lianhua unconscious on the bed and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

He fiercely raised his hand, and just then, the door was slammed open.

Li Mubei leapt into the room.

"Elder Wu, it really is you."

Li Mubei took a good look, and the person in front of him was indeed Elder Wu.

Li Mubei seemed to have left, but actually, he had been lurking outside, waiting for Elder Wu to appear so he could burst in immediately.

"Crown Prince, are you planning to fight me?"

Elder Wu was dressed like a follower, it seemed he had been infiltrating the Princess’ Mansion for quite a while.

"Elder Wu, you watched me grow up from childhood, I don’t want to turn against you unless absolutely necessary. But you targeted Lianhua for your own selfish reasons, even using dark curses, we have no emotional ties left. Remove the curse from Lianhua, and I will let you leave."

Li Mubei spoke in a deep voice.

The relationship between the Wu family and the Li family was too complicated, and Li Mubei didn’t want to kill directly.

"Let’s see if you have the ability."

Elder Wu sneered, and his figure shifted as he charged towards Dongfang Lianhua on the bed.

He was determined to end Dongfang Lianhua’s life tonight.

But Li Mubei was prepared. He was faster than Elder Wu and flashed in front of Dongfang Lianhua’s bed.

In an instant, the two exchanged several moves.

"Elder Wu, you are no match for me."

After just a few exchanges, Elder Wu was defeated. 𝑓𝘳𝘦𝑒𝑤𝑒𝘣𝘯ℴ𝘷𝘦𝓁.𝑐𝑜𝑚

"Elder Wu, I give you one last chance, remove the curse from Lianhua."

However, Elder Wu just sneered twice, and his figure flashed as he attempted to escape.

With a heavy thud, Elder Wu was struck by Li Mubei. As a Wuji Wood Seal level warrior, Li Mubei’s palm strike was full of immense power, hitting Elder Wu who then flew out like a fallen leaf.
