Amazing Pastoral World: Unparalleled Medical Queen
Chapter 157 Returning Late
It was late at night.
The night in the mountain village seems particularly quiet.
Winter has come to this small mountain village. The biting cold comes from all directions. Lu Keer circulates the spiritual energy in her body to warm up her body.
It looks like we’ll have to burn charcoal in a few days.
The moonlight was very dim, and a few stars were shining faintly in the night sky.
Lu Ke'er lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
Usually at this time, she would have already fallen asleep. But today, she seemed to be vaguely expecting something and had no desire to sleep at all.
It has been two days and two nights and the night breeze has not returned.
Even Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai couldn't find any trace of him.
This guy wouldn't just leave without saying goodbye.
Lu Keer turned over.
Or, is he in some trouble?
She turned over again.
Just as she was baking pies on the bed, suddenly, the little kid in the corner let out a low cry.
Then, the sound of dogs barking could be heard from far and near.
Lu Ke'er got up and was about to put on her clothes, but then she thought of something, snorted, and lay back down on the bed.
I vaguely heard Qiu Ye get up, then walk out of the house and open the gate.
After a while, Lu Ke'er heard brisk footsteps, and then stopped at her door.
Outside the door, Zuo Yi stood behind Ye Feng, watching his prince staring blankly at the door with a conflicted expression, and a trace of pity flashed through his heart.
"Sir, you haven't slept well these past two days. Go back to your room and rest early."
The night wind was silent.
She was in the room.
He and she were just a few steps away.
His inexplicably anxious heart over the past two days suddenly became calm.
But the next moment, an inexplicable desire arose.
"Sir, if you want to see Miss Lu, there is no need to rush. It is late at night and Miss Lu is sleeping soundly. Why don't you come to see her tomorrow?"
Night Breeze sighed softly.
Although he was reluctant, he couldn't bear to wake Lu Ke'er. After pondering for a while, he turned around and left, going into his own room.
Inside the room, Lu Ke'er breathed a sigh of relief.
She has a keen hearing and can hear every sound outside the house clearly.
She didn't close her eyes until silence returned to her surroundings.
A smile slowly spread across his face.
Soon, she fell into a deep sleep.
In the room on the other side, Ye Feng was not sleepy for a while.
"The Jia Mansion has been searched, but Jia Wangcai escaped. It is said that he has connections with some desperate criminals in the underworld, so don't take it lightly." He reminded Zuo Yi.
Zuo Yi nodded and said, "Don't worry, Your Highness. I have already informed the two Lords Chu and will intensify the search secretly."
"The fall of the Jia family only cut off a small tentacle of Zhenguogong Shi Mu. We must hurry up and interrogate Jia Ren. We must pry more things out of him."
"Yes."
"This time, we were able to find out that the magistrate of Qingshan County and the Jia family were in collusion and illegally mining iron ore. Chen Dayong played an indispensable role. Send someone to secretly protect him in the near future. He is an important witness."
"Yes, Your Highness."
Speaking of Chen Dayong, Zuo Yi couldn't help but feel emotional.
Miss Lu didn't know that when His Highness was not with her, he had sent two secret guards to protect her secretly. The secret guards immediately reported to His Highness about Miss Lu's rescue two days ago. His Highness ordered Gao Yutang to do his best to treat Chen Dayong. The next day, Chen Dayong woke up and told the secret of the iron mine in Moshi Village, Qingshan County.
"A small magistrate of Qingshan County doesn't have the guts to privately mine iron ore. This is a capital crime. Keep investigating! I suspect that Qian Gui, the prefect of Luzhou, is not clean either."
"Yes. Your Highness, do you think this iron mine has any connection with King Chen?" Zuo Yi asked.
"The magistrate of Qingshan County was promoted by Prince Chen. It is obvious that Prince Chen is the mastermind behind this. However, we need evidence."
Zuo Yi's expression was stern: "Yes. I will investigate this case thoroughly and find the evidence as soon as possible."
He glanced at Ye Feng's tired look and advised, "Your Highness should rest early. In order to search the Jia Mansion, Your Highness personally took charge, deployed troops, and mobilized the Luzhou garrison. He has not slept well for two consecutive days. If you don't rest, I'm afraid..."
It may seem simple to search a small Jia Mansion, but in fact it involves all the forces of the King of Chen in Luzhou. In order not to alert the enemy and to control the situation, His Highness had to go out in person. After all, there were not many people His Highness could trust in Luzhou.
Except for Jia Wangcai who escaped because he went out to drink wine that night, all the other suspects were arrested. Even the prefect of Luzhou was under the control of His Highness.
Ye Feng didn't take it seriously: "Since Ke'er treated me, my health has improved a lot. How can I be as weak as before?"
Thinking of Lu Ke'er, Ye Feng felt full of strength again.
Zuo Yi advised: "Your Highness, if you don't think about yourself, you should also consider Miss Lu's feelings. If Miss Lu sees that Your Highness doesn't take care of his body, she will definitely be angry."
Ye Feng was stunned when he heard this.
"You have a point." He frowned. "I remember one time I didn't follow her advice and ate raw or cold food, which caused me to have a stomachache. When she found out about it later, she got really mad at me."
Zuo Yi swallowed.
Miss Lu is the first person in the world who dares to get angry at His Highness.
"Zuo Yi, do you think I am ill?"
"what?"
Zuo Yi stared blankly at his prince who looked like a fairy. At this moment, he was as confused as a lost child.
"Ke'er scolded me, but I was not angry. On the contrary, I was very happy." Ye Feng looked at Zuo Yi, "Do you think I am sick? Why am I so abnormal?"
"Ah?" Single guy Zuo Yi scratched his head.
He doesn't understand either.
However, he was very sure that if Lu Ke'er scolded him, although he would not be angry, he would definitely not be happy.
"Well..." Zuo Yi answered after careful consideration, "I think what Your Highness needs most right now is rest. Maybe after a good night's sleep, Your Highness will feel normal again."
Ye Feng's face darkened.
In the end, it all comes down to letting him rest.
"Go away." He waved his hand to the left unhappily and prepared to go to bed.
"Yes, I'll get out of here right away." Zuo Yi chuckled and immediately left the room.
…………
Ye Feng thought he wouldn't fall asleep quickly, but unexpectedly, as soon as his head touched the pillow, he fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, when he woke up, it was already past noon.
Outside the house, the north wind was blowing and the weather became much colder. The exhaled breath immediately condensed into mist.
He stood up and was about to get dressed when he saw a brand new cotton coat lying on the bedside.
He touched it with his hand. It was made of ordinary cotton material, but it was stuffed with thick cotton. It must be very warm to wear.
Looking at the stitches that were not fine and neat, a sweet warmth surged in Ye Feng's heart.
He knew that this was done by Lu Keer herself.
Ke'er is an excellent doctor and cook, but her needlework is hard to describe.
He once teased her, saying that no one would dare to wear the clothes she made.
Ke'er was not convinced and threatened him that she would make him a cotton coat next time. If he dared not to wear it, she would not treat him.
Really domineering.
He smiled, shook his head and put on his cotton coat.
