Chapter 1370 Escape

Li Qiyou looked at the person in front of him steadily and asked word by word: "Are you willing to marry Murong Qing?"

"Your Highness, things have come to this. Even if I don't want to..." Fang Zilan just opened her mouth, but was interrupted by Li Qiyou, "As long as you say you don't want to, I will take you away."

Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at Li Qiyou, "What do you mean by this, Your Highness?"

"I'll help you escape from marriage." Li Qiyou's eyes were burning, and he finally uttered the most undignified word, which was the only solution in his mind, "elope."

Fang Zilan laughed in silence, "Your Highness, are you sick? Are you confused..."

As she spoke, she reached out to touch Li Qiyou's forehead, wanting to confirm whether he was delirious because of a fever, but he held his other free hand and said, "I'm not sick, and I'm not confused."

"Your Highness, do you know that if I agree to your request..." Fang Zilan restrained her expression and said seriously: "After tonight, there will be no place for you and me in this vast world."

"So what?" Li Qiyou's voice was a little more anxious, "We can find a remote place to live in seclusion..."

"A remote place?" Fang Zilan raised her eyebrows. "The whole world belongs to the king. Your Highness, where do you think we can escape to?"

  Li Qiyou was stunned for a moment, and Fang Zilan continued to talk to herself, "Besides, the prince is a family man. If he elopes with me, where will the two princesses be?

"I..." Li Qiyou opened his mouth, but before he could defend himself, Fang Zilan continued, "Today, the prince can completely ignore the two princesses for me. In the future, he can also abandon me for someone else."

"I won't!" Li Qiyou took Fang Zilan into his arms without further ado, "Except for you, I won't..."

"Your Highness, you are the King Yucheng of Dajing. And I am the third daughter of the Fang family of the Prime Minister's Mansion." Fang Zilan's expression turned cold and she pushed Li Qiyou away. "People like us are born to be helpless. Even if you don't want to bear the glory and reputation of the Li royal family, I can't abandon the Fang family."

After she finished speaking, she straightened her sleeves and said resolutely: "Your Highness, please leave."

Li Qiyou still had no intention of leaving and stood there in silence. After a long while, Fang Zilan lost her patience and dragged him to the door. But when she opened the door, she saw Murong Qing.

Fang Zilan was not surprised. After all, with her sharp ears and eyes, she had just heard someone outside the door, so she did not force Li Qiyou out.

But for some reason, the person outside the door showed no intention of leaving, so she didn't care about her face and just let people see that she and Li Qiyou were indeed having an affair. She would wait until the news spread to Prince Zhongzheng's Palace to see their reactions.

But she didn't expect that the person outside the door was actually Prince Zhongzheng Murong Qing, now her nominal future husband.

Murong Qing's eyes wandered back and forth between the two of them, and finally landed on Li Qiyou, "Your Highness Prince Yucheng, why are you here in the middle of the night?"

"I invited you here." Fang Zilan said calmly, "Why, does your Highness think there is something wrong?"

"Miss Fang San, you and I are already engaged, so please respect yourself." Murong Qing said this in a serious tone, showing a sense of maturity beyond his years.

Fang Zilan did not comment, and changed the subject: "I wonder what brings you here so late at night, my lord?"

Fang Zilan had just walked to the bed when she saw Awan open her eyes and sit up. "What happened outside?" "It's nothing serious." Fang Zilan sat next to her. "Why didn't you sleep? Did the noise outside disturb you?"

"I guess so." Awan sighed softly, "I was so worried that something might happen that I couldn't sleep at all. What happened?"

"The source of the plague has been found, and it's now in Linjia Village." Fang Zilan said lightly, but Awan was shocked. "How did you find it?"

Fang Zilan briefly told Awan about the previous situation. After listening, she looked solemn. "According to what Lin Jian said, there are many towns near Linjia Village, and the villagers often go to the town market. No wonder the plague spread so quickly."

"So, I guess Miss Yan'er is in Linjia Village now." Fang Zilan said, "I want to go to Linjia Village to find her after the situation here stabilizes."

"I'll go with you then." Just as Awan said this, Fang Zilan reached out and pinched her face. "Let's talk about it later. You should take care of your health first. It's more important than anything else."

"I'm fine." Awan took her hand and put it on her forehead. "Look, the fever is gone."

Fang Zilan placed her hand on her forehead doubtfully, "Did you secretly take any fever-reducing medicine?"

"No." A Wan curled her lips, "You were out all night, and I didn't go out at all. How could you secretly take the medicine?"

"You carry so many medicines with you, who would know?" Fang Zilan was not moved at all. A Wan angrily shook her hand away, "You don't believe me?"

"It's not that I don't trust you, but I can't treat your body as a joke." Fang Zilan pulled the quilt over Awan and covered her with it. "You should have a good rest these few days. It's enough for you to have Elder Yun and Qinghan to see you."

"Mr. Yun has only been ill for two days and has not recovered yet, and you let him see patients?" Ah Wan's eyes widened, but Fang Zilan said as a matter of course: "We have cured Mr. Yun and have not yet received any money. Why not let him help see patients to pay for it? What's more, as a doctor, Mr. Yun's duty is to see patients, and he cannot refuse."

"What kind of twisted logic is this?" A Wan looked at her steadily, "Sister Qinghan didn't ask for any money when she took us in, but you actually want to take money from Elder Yun?"

"Awan, I have always been very clear about my calculations. I will not lose even a cent that is due to me." Fang Zilan's expression was indifferent, but her eyes showed a sense of determination. "As for others, I will not owe them a single cent. Sooner or later, I will repay Qinghan for taking us in."

"Okay." Ah Wan knew she couldn't persuade her, so she lowered her eyes and said, "I'll listen to you. I'll have a good rest for a few days."

Fang Zilan was about to respond when she heard her add, "But I can't just lie down these few days. If I have nothing to do, I'll go help Elder Yun and Qinghan. You won't stop me, right?"

Fang Zilan did not comment, "But first make sure you are not infected with the disease, otherwise you will just have to lie down."

"You!" A Wan was furious. "Why are you so overbearing?"

Fang Zilan stood up and stretched her muscles, then said to Awan, "You should sleep for a while."

"What about you? Don't you want to take a rest?" Awan frowned slightly. Fang Zilan smiled indifferently, "I can still hold on. It's dawn, and Lin Jian will be here soon. I have to ask Mr. Yun to come in advance." After she said that, she left.
