Chapter 1531 Touch

"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?"

"Father has received news that the soldiers of Dajing are heading south, heading straight for Lincheng." Murong Qing stared at Fang Zilan and said in a deep voice, "So father asked me to tell Miss Fang San that the marriage is not what our families want, but if it leads to another war, the Zhongzheng Palace will never give in."

"What did the prince say?" Fang Zilan's eyes flashed with surprise. Murong Qing snorted coldly, "Miss Fang San used supernatural means to play with the uncle and nephew of the Li family in Dajing. Now you dare not admit it?"

Fang Zilan was furious, but she remained calm. "The prince and I haven't gotten married yet, don't you think you are meddling too much?" "Miss Fang, the uncle and nephew of the Li family are not easy to deal with." Murong Qing said, looking at Li Qiyou who had a gloomy expression on his face. "Be careful, don't play with fire and get burned."

Fang Zilan didn't hesitate and said, "If Your Majesty orders me to do so, I will do it even if it means dying." After she said that, she bowed respectfully.

Li Shengxuan understood everything completely. Fang Zilan could sacrifice her own life and the lives of others, but not Mo Han.

"You..." Li Shengxuan gritted his teeth. Fang Zilan said calmly, "This is my selfish desire. I hope Your Majesty will understand."

"What a selfish thought." Li Shengxuan snorted coldly, "Fang Zilan, have you ever thought that even if I don't care, others will still plot against me. You can protect Mo Han for a while, but can you protect him forever?"

"Whether I can protect you or not, it's all my business." Fang Zilan remained motionless in the posture of saluting, "Your Majesty, please don't worry about it."

"Fang Zilan, why are you..." Li Shengxuan endured it, waved his sleeves and didn't say anything else.

Fang Zilan pursed her lips and wanted to say something to ease the situation, but Li Shengxuan grabbed her arm and brought her in front of him, "Your Majesty..."

"Fang Zilan, if you want to protect Mo Han, then do it." Li Shengxuan sighed, "I will choose someone else to implement the new law."

"Thank you, Your Majesty..." Fang Zilan said as she tried to break free, but Li Shengxuan held her tighter. "I said I'm willing to share the burden with you. No matter what you want to do, I will support you."

He changed his name and spoke sincerely. Fang Zilan was a little dazed, "You..."

She turned her head away, not daring to look directly at Li Shengxuan. "Your Majesty, there is no need to treat me like this. It's not worth it." After she said that, she resolutely shook off Li Shengxuan's hand and took a step back.

"Whether it's worth it or not is my business." Li Shengxuan took a step forward, "Fang Zilan, do you really want to push me away?"

Fang Zilan opened her mouth but no sound came out. Seeing this, Li Shengxuan suddenly smiled, "That's good. At least in your heart, I have weight."

"What?" Fang Zilan looked surprised. Li Shengxuan coughed and said, "Before the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, you sent everyone in the mansion away because the situation was unclear and you were afraid that they would be implicated, right?"

Fang Zilan's expression froze, "How did you know..."

"But they still came back." Li Shengxuan said seriously: "They didn't avoid it, and I won't avoid it either."

For some reason, Fang Zilan felt like hiding when she saw the person so close to her. She subconsciously took a step back, her heels stepped on the edge of the corridor column, but the back of her head did not hit it, but leaned on Li Shengxuan's palm.

"Be careful!" Li Shengxuan stretched out his hand to block Fang Zilan's head. She couldn't help but clench her fingers, "Your Majesty..."

"I know you are related to the previous dynasty, and I also know you have a deep relationship with the Ghost Gate." Li Shengxuan continued, "I admit that I care, but what I care more about is when you are willing to tell me."
