Chapter 263: He was saved just because of the emperor’s order
"Ruzhou, I have made many mistakes in the past, and I will definitely make up for you in the future. Don't you want the treatment of a princess? I will give it to you."
Shen Ruzhou looked at him indifferently, with a sarcastic tone, "That's enough, Xiao Chenyan! Put away your hypocrisy. I just want to make peace now, let's get together and break up."
In the last life, she hoped that Xiao Chenyan would treat her better, even a little bit, but he was stingy and refused to give it. Now that she doesn't need it anymore, he keeps pestering her endlessly!
Shen Ruzhou didn't want to talk nonsense with him anymore, so he took out the veil from his sleeves and tied it before walking to the isolation area.
Xiao Chenyan saw this and grabbed Shen Ruzhou's hand, "You can't go there. There are soldiers infected with the plague. It's too dangerous!"
"let me go!"
Shen Ruzhou struggled hard but didn't break away, Ji Yan looked at him sternly.
"I want to stay in the military camp to treat the soldiers. Now is a critical moment. I can't leave. You can't leave either. Xiao Chenyan, stop quickly."
Xiao Chenyan pulled her forcefully and walked out, "I can stay, but as a woman, what qualifications do you have to stay in the military camp!"
"Why does King Wu Cheng think she is not qualified?"
Beixiu Yan's extremely coercive voice came over.
Xiao Chenyan looked for fame and went out. Not far away, Bei Xiuyan and Lu Huaining walked towards them.
While Xiao Chenyan was stunned, Shen Ruzhou finally broke free from his imprisonment.With sharp eyes, she saw the imperial edict in Huai Ning's hand.
The reason why Lu Huaining was originally asked to go to the palace to ask for the imperial edict was to suppress the non-stop talking soldiers in the military camp and prevent everyone from disobeying her and delaying the treatment.
Unexpectedly, in order to survive, the soldier was calmed down by her with a few words, and he obediently cooperated with the treatment.Now this imperial edict was used to make Xiao Chenyan obey.
Lu Huaining walked over with an unconvinced look and looked at Xiao Chenyan aggressively, "What right does King Wu Cheng have to question a beautiful sister? She is not only kind, but also has very strong medical skills!"
"Now only my sister can cure the plague in the military camp. She is better than anyone in the world. I don't want you to be sick. I will just fall ill in bed and wait for others to save me!"
Xiao Chenyan didn't want to pay attention to Lu Huaining. After all, the other party was just a teenager, and it would be beneath his status to argue with him.
He cupped his hands toward the North Xiuyan, holding back his anger with a solemn look on his face.
"Prince Regent, the epidemic is raging in the military camp now. Shen Ruzhou is my princess, and I should consider her safety. I will take her back to the palace now and ask the regent for my convenience."
Bei Xiuyan's eyes were full of pressure and coldness, "She is now a doctor in the military camp and cannot leave."
"What doctor? She is just a woman and cannot stay in such a dangerous place!"
Bei Xiuyan's eyebrows were cold and his tone was calm but resounding.
"Doctors are only judged by their medical skills and do not distinguish between men and women. Which law do I have that stipulates that women cannot be doctors? In this world, women can do many things that men can do just as well, and can even do better than men."
Xiao Chenyan's eyes were spitting fire. He thought that Beixiu Banquet had evil intentions in letting Shen Ruzhou stay.
"Since ancient times, a woman has been married to her husband. Since she married me, she should listen to me. If I ask her to go back to the palace, she will go back. What is the purpose of the regent to leave a weak woman in the military camp?"
Beixiu Yan glanced sideways at Xiao Chenyan, and the aura around him instantly became lowered. Even Lu Huaining couldn't help but shudder.
"I'm afraid King Wu Cheng has forgotten who saved you. If it weren't for the weak woman you call me, I'm afraid you would be lying in the coffin now, waiting for the end of the period of incarceration to be buried!"
The veins on Xiao Chenyan's forehead popped out, "The Regent is confusing the public. As Shen Ruzhou's husband, I am sick, and it is only natural for her to take care of me. This is the duty of a wife!"
Hearing this, Shen Ruzhou couldn't bear it anymore and took the imperial edict from Lu Huaining's hand and spread it out to Xiao Chenyan.
"You see clearly, it is the emperor's decree that I come to the military camp to treat the plague!"
"I only saved you because of the emperor's order. Only by curing you can I get the imperial edict and take over full authority to treat the plague in the military camp. Stop being so sentimental!"
Xiao Chenyan subconsciously caught the imperial edict that she shoved into her arms, scanned it hastily, and his face became increasingly gloomy.
"You saved me just to come to the military camp?"
"That's right!"
Xiao Chenyan's knuckles turned white when he pinched the imperial edict, his palate was extremely dry, and his heart dropped heavily.
It turns out that he was just a bargaining chip for her to take over the military camp!
Even before she kept preparing medicines for herself and trying various treatments, it was not because she liked him, but because she used him as a test subject in order to get the best medicine!
Xiao Chenyan's fisted hands tightened and loosened, and there was a hint of scarlet in his eyes, "Shen Ruzhou, let me ask you one last time, will you follow me back to the palace?"
Shen Ruzhou blurted out without thinking, "I won't go back with you!"
"Okay, okay!" Xiao Chenyan's eyes were red and a sneer appeared on his lips, "Shen Ruzhou, don't regret it!"
He turned to leave.
But Shen Ruzhou stopped him, "Wait a minute."
Xiao Chenyan looked back at her, with a gentle wave in his eyes.
"You can't leave. Come with me to the quarantine area. I want to show the soldiers infected with the plague that this disease can be cured."
Shen Ruzhou calmly broke his gentleness with one sentence, "You were so ill before, but now you are alive and kicking again after my treatment. You are my living sign, how can you leave?"
Xiao Chenyan laughed angrily, "You're using me and you want me to help? What qualifications do you have to order me?"
"She is not qualified. Is the imperial edict qualified enough?"
Beixiu Yan opened his thin lips lightly, and his words carried a majestic aura that could not be refuted, "The emperor has decreed that the current epidemic treatment is a national priority."
"All ministers must do their best to treat illnesses and save people. King Wu Cheng is already responsible for rescuing and rescuing people, so he is even more bound to do so. Now that you can help but refuse, are you disobeying the imperial edict?"
Beixiu Yan moved out of the imperial edict, and Xiao Chenyan had no choice but to stay even if he didn't want to. After all, he didn't want to be accused of obstructing the treatment of the plague.Anyway, he has already been infected and nothing will happen if he stays.
"I can stay. Shen Ruzhou is my princess. When she is rescuing soldiers in the military camp, I will accompany her and protect her."
Although Xiao Chenyan was as angry as Zhou, the situation in the military camp was tense now, and he was still worried about her in his heart.
He pulled Shen Ruzhou towards him and looked at Beixiu Yan coldly.
"Prince Regent, as the saying goes, men and women are not intimate. After all, Shen Ruzhou is a married woman. Please be careful to avoid this, Prince Regent, so as not to cause gossip."
Xiao Chenyan also had his own plan. He stayed with Shen Ruzhou to treat the plague in the army. Firstly, he could take care of Shen Ruzhou. Secondly, he could also take the opportunity to win over the morale of the army, which would give him a better chance of winning the throne in the future.
Shen Ruzhou naturally knew what Xiao Chenyan was doing by compromising so easily.
In the previous life, Xiao Chenyan won the hearts of the people and the emperor's attention by relieving victims and curing the plague. He began to continuously strengthen his power, rising from an unpopular prince to a pivotal figure in the court.
And finally got his wish and got the yellow robe.
In her last life, all the credit for her efforts in curing the plague went to Xiao Chenyan. How could she let him get his wish in this life!
