Chapter 925 The Broken Dragon Chair
Xiao Lanyuan held Fu Zhaoning's hand.
She must be tired in every way.
He asked in a low voice, "I heard from An Nian that there is a great shortage of medicinal materials?"
"Yes. Not only do the infected patients need medicinal materials, but we also need to prepare them to prevent others from being infected. Right now, it seems that there is no way to completely cut off the route of infection."
Fu Zhaoning allowed herself to rest and relax in his arms for a while.
But she knew that now was not the time for her to really relax and rest.
She held Xiao Lanyuan's hand, opened her eyes, and said seriously, "So you can't stay here for too long. Go back to the capital tomorrow."
"Are you sending me away so soon?"
Fu Zhaoning sighed, "Because I'm worried that if you stay for two more days, it will be difficult for you to leave."
If more people are infected by then, the worst outcome will be a city lockdown.
If the city is closed, they cannot leave. It would be more dangerous to stay here, and if they leave there would be the risk of taking the virus with them.
From Fu Zhaoning's own perspective as a doctor, this is not very rational.
But she would not tell Xiao Lanyuan about the possible result of closing the city, because once she told him, Xiao Lanyuan would not let her stay here.
But what she didn't expect was that before she said it, Xiao Lanyuan had thought of it himself.
"The emperor was afraid of the disease that Prince Xiao was infected with before, so he ordered people to strictly check people entering the city. If more people were infected, he would probably have people block the city gates and not let anyone in. The cold emergency here in Zhecheng is much more contagious than Prince Xiao's disease."
While Xiao Lanyuan was waiting for her, he had already asked An Nian and Dong Huanzhi a lot of questions.
"If this continues, should we blockade Zhecheng and allow no one to enter but no one to leave?"
Fu Zhaoning looked at him in surprise.
Without her answering, Xiao Lanyuan understood her answer after seeing her reaction.
He took a deep breath to calm himself down, otherwise he wanted to pinch her chin, make her look up, look into her eyes and see if she had no heart.
"You've already thought about this possibility, right?" he asked.
At this time, Fu Zhaoning couldn't hear his emotions.
Maybe Prince Jun is too good at hiding.
"It is indeed possible. If the infection in Zhecheng is too serious, sealing off Zhecheng to prevent the virus from spreading is a helpless but necessary measure." Fu Zhaoning answered calmly.
"But didn't you think of leaving first?"
"A Yuan, I have always been on the front line," Fu Zhaoning wanted to explain to him clearly, "It can be said that I have always been the one who has the most contact with patients. If the city is to be closed and people are not allowed to go out, then I am the last person who should leave."
She shook Xiao Lanyuan's hand, "But I will protect myself well at all times, so you don't have to worry."
Xiao Lanyuan was so angry that he laughed.
When he was with her, his mood was always influenced by her.
Just now he felt that he loved her very much, but now he felt that she was extremely irritating.
"Tell me, how can I not be worried? If there is an outbreak of patients here and the city is sealed off, and you are in the middle of it, and I can't see or touch it, and I don't know what the situation is, how can I not be worried?"
"If I could stop worrying, why would you persuade me to leave Zhecheng tomorrow?"
Isn't she worried about him too?
They couldn't tell what the outcome of this matter would be for the time being, but Xiao Lanyuan knew that it was unlikely to let her leave Zhecheng just like that.
Fu Zhaoning's love for the people is much greater than that for the emperor they respect.
Xiao Lanyuan couldn't help biting her face lightly and said angrily, "I think you have to sit in that position in the palace."
"Pfft." Fu Zhaoning burst out laughing, "Can you just say something like that?"
Do you want her to be the empress?
"No matter what he does, you have to devote yourself completely to his people." Xiao Lanyuan snorted.
"Are you trying to make me the empress? Would the empress have three thousand concubines in her harem?"
Fu Zhaoning also joked, but before she could finish her words, Xiao Lanyuan's lips covered hers.
When she was out of breath, Xiao Lanyuan let her go and pinched her cheek, "Don't tell such jokes anymore."
Still want a harem of three thousand?
What are you thinking about?!
For some reason, the more angry Xiao Lanyuan was, the more he couldn't control himself. He imagined that if Fu Zhaoning really became the empress, and really had a royal husband and three thousand concubines, then it was very likely that Situ Bai would enter the palace immediately.
Maybe Qing Yunxiao, the poor kid of the Xiaoqing family, also wants to enter the palace?
Another one, the second prince of Da He, should he still be unwilling to give up on Fu Zhaoning? Plus another one.
Who else? Will An Nian be there?
Xiao Lanyuan quickly shook his head, throwing away this ridiculous idea.
If that were the case, he would probably go crazy.
Fu Zhaoning looked at him, trying not to laugh, and said, "Why, are you scared by your own imagination? But don't you think about it? What if, what if, if you were to take that position, you would also have three thousand beauties in your harem."
She pointed in the direction of the west wing outside and teased, "No one else is telling me, but there is a candidate there who can be the queen?"
"Don't talk nonsense," Xiao Lanyuan pinched her face again, and then rubbed it reluctantly, "But I'm curious, shouldn't the queen be you?"
He just asked a question out of curiosity.
"It won't be me. I won't spend the rest of my life being jealous with a group of people," Fu Zhaoning shuddered. "If you really become the emperor, we can part ways amicably. I won't be angry with you. Just be free and easy and divorce me. I'll carry a medicine box and go to be my Doctor Fu."
Fu Zhaoning thought about it and felt that if there really came a day when, by the push of fate, he really took that position, then it would just be that they were not destined to be together.
Maybe she will be sad, but she won't hate him.
It's just that they will no longer be suitable to spend the rest of their lives together.
There are so many emperors in history, and the beauties in their harems are also a part of their checks and balances of power. Many times they are in it without their own will.
Fu Zhaoning had never thought of relying on his own strength to fight against the entire imperial system, historical environment, and human nature.
That would be too tiring.
She could let go and leave. The two of them just went on different paths and could not be considered enemies.
Xiao Lanyuan heard a hint of carefreeness and seriousness in her tone, and his heart trembled.
At this moment, he believed that what she said was absolutely from her heart.
He hugged her tightly and bent down to kiss her forehead.
"Whoever wants to sit in that seat can sit there."
He is a person who has experienced life and death, and he is also a person who once thought that his life was only as short as twenty years. He does not want to waste his life in such a struggle.
"However, there is another possibility." Fu Zhaoning suddenly thought of another possibility and burst out laughing.
