Chapter 754: Not Seizing the Throne



Chapter 754: Not Seizing the Throne

Fu Zhaoning went straight into the prison.

She wanted to see if these jailers really dared to stop her directly.

However, this also shows that something really happened, otherwise no one would have stopped her before and allowed her to accompany Xiao Lanyuan in the prison. She has only been away for one day, and the jailer will not let her enter the prison?

What's the matter? Are you afraid of her now?

So what was there in the prison that she, a doctor, was afraid of noticing? Was it the prisoner who was sick?

"Princess Jun, please don't make things difficult for me, otherwise I will have no choice but to stop you." The jailer stopped her again.

"Okay, let me see how you guys are going to stop me."

Fu Zhaoning said this and raised his hand.

The jailer suddenly felt his body go numb and he couldn't move.

They watched Fu Zhaoning walk past them and into jail.

"Princess Jun! You'd better think it through. Jail break-in is a serious crime!"

"Tsk, who's going to rob the prison? I'm just going to go in and see our prince. The emperor didn't say that we can't visit him. Why are you so nervous?"

After hearing what she said, the other jailers didn't dare to stop her directly.

All the jailers are not under the command of one prison boss. They have another prison boss who occasionally causes trouble.

The group of jailers guarding the gate had not received any orders not to let Princess Jun in.

It's just a gesture to stop it, but it's unlikely to really put in a lot of effort to stop it.

They all watched Fu Zhaoning being taken to jail.

"Go and see!"

But the jailers who had been injected with anesthetic needles could only stand there with sad faces. They couldn't move. What should they do?

Come and rescue them.

"Don't worry, our princess won't hurt anyone casually. You should be fine if you just stand here for a while." Eleven followed them in and said this insincerely to comfort them.

The jailers were in tears.

It’s cold and it’s snowing. They don’t know how long they will have to stand in the snow. What if they freeze to death?

What to do? Fu Zhaoning might tell them to just chill.

She walked in quickly, and when she passed the prison corridor, she saw that there seemed to be fewer prisoners in the cells on both sides. She saw that several cells were empty, which had people in them when she left yesterday.

When he arrived in front of the cell where Xiao Lanyuan was imprisoned, Fu Zhaoning had already smelled a particularly foul odor before he saw anyone there.

She frowned, turned around and threw a bottle of medicine to Eleven, "Take one first."

"yes."

Eleven quickly listened and poured out a pill and swallowed it. Anyway, he would not have any opinion on such things. He followed Fu Zhaoning's instructions without any doubt.

Fu Zhaoning was already standing outside Xiao Lanyuan's cell door.

"Ningning, why are you here?"

Xiao Lanyuan saw her and immediately walked over.

He clearly asked the secret guard to tell her what happened here, but he didn't plan to let her come over.

Fu Zhaoning glanced at him and said, "Stretch out your hand."

She didn't even bother to answer his question, but just took his pulse first.

His hands were still warm, but Fu Zhaoning could see the problem here: the hanging gauze curtain was gone, and the charcoal stove inside was gone.

There was a chill in the cell.

In just one day, this place is even colder than before. It seems that the prison bosses have done a lot of tricks.

"Eleven, give him a pill." She said to Eleven, then put the medicine box on the ground, opened it, took out a white cotton mask and put it on.

This was processed by her. There is a filter layer inside, and two more layers of fine cotton cloth of that era are sewn on the outside, so you can't see the high-tech product inside.

After putting them on, she took out another pair of gloves, which were also improved. Under the layer of fine cotton cloth to hide them was medical gloves.

"Ningning, that person is dead and has a serious illness. Don't go over there." As soon as Xiao Lanyuan saw her posture, he knew what she was going to do.

He immediately reached out and grasped her arm.

"let go."

"Don't go over there." Xiao Lanyuan was glared at by her beautiful eyes. He knew that she was angry, but he couldn't figure out what she was angry about for a moment.

But because of that person's illness, he really didn't feel comfortable letting her get close to him.

"Since you know his disease is contagious, are you still so patient as to want to stay here and keep silent?"

Fu Zhaoning was a little angry.

Because she saw clearly that Xiao Lanyuan had been tolerating the emperor.

So, no matter what he had done before, how he was rude to the emperor, refused to kneel, confronted him, and even killed the emperor's secret guards, it was all because he had found out where the bottom line was.

He attacked the emperor's guards and cut off many of the emperor's claws. This was also because the emperor attacked first, so it can be said that he was just defending himself.

However, like in this case, if the emperor really wants to punish him, Xiao Lanyuan will actually still compromise in order to stabilize the emperor.

People have already sent such a person here and want to kill him, but Xiao Lanyuan is still thinking about enduring it.

Yes, the other party is the emperor, and he is just a prince. Logically speaking, he should not be able to win. If he really wants to fight to the death, it would almost be tantamount to rebellion.

So, this is Xiao Lanyuan’s bottom line.

He had no intention of rebelling, nor did he intend to commit any real offense.

He was also thinking about what means he could use to protect himself, anger the emperor, and destroy his prestige, but without actually rebelling and confiscating his property.

What he wants may be balance.

But Fu Zhaoning has always been arrogant by nature. It is not her style to be so frustrated and endure so much, to the point of becoming a coward.

"I'm not keeping silent. I just want to hold on for a few more days so I can pretend to be sick and take the opportunity to leave the prison."

Xiao Lanyuan lowered his voice and explained seriously, "He might think that I really have that disease, and he will definitely not send anyone to visit me casually. He himself will not come out either. The most likely thing is that he will lock me up in Prince Jun's Mansion first, saying that I should take good care of myself."

"He will be waiting for me to die of illness, but don't I have you? I trust your medical skills, and I will be fine. We can take advantage of this opportunity to develop behind closed doors. By the time he realizes why I haven't died of illness yet—"

Fu Zhaoning sneered and continued, "You've been dragging it out peacefully for another half a year, right?"

Xiao Lanyuan paused.

He looked at Fu Zhaoning, and suddenly he understood what she was angry about.

He sighed, "In fact, when my father was critically ill, I promised him that I would not seize the throne of Zhao and would not cause civil unrest in Zhao. Ningning, I promised my father."

If he had not promised it, he would not have been so gentle in dealing with the emperor.

In the past ten years, I have been able to avoid the emperor's attention and live quietly in Youqing Peak.

This time too, he could be said to have endured it.
