There is a bug in the space? That's called buff!

"So what the Prime Minister means is that our Shenyu Kingdom is a weak country? Although our Shenyu Kingdom has encountered many raids on its borders, we were able to drive away the enemy attacks in the end. Is this a sign of a weak country?" Liang Yongkang, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, looked at Zhang Ju'an with dissatisfaction.

"That's not what I meant. However, if we are constrained by a small country like Nanyue, we will be easily looked down upon by other countries. I am indeed considering the country. I hope Your Majesty will understand!" Zhang Ju'an knelt down in front of the emperor and said solemnly.

The emperor was troubled by the noise in the hall, so he said to Zhang Juzheng:

"My dear ministers, please stand up. You are all considering the Shenyu Kingdom, but from different perspectives. There is no need to argue. I am only asking if there is a solution this time."

Hearing this, all the ministers lowered their heads in guilt, but Chengzhu Zhang said, "Why is it so troublesome? Why don't we attack the capital of Nanyue State and force them to hand over their glass-making skills? Then we won't have to worry about this anymore!"

"No, no, if we keep fighting and killing each other, wouldn't that give other countries a reason to invade us?" said the Minister of Justice Ji Zuyin.

"This won't work, and that won't work either. This is so pathetic!" Chengzhu Zhang threw his hands and said angrily.

"If you have no solution, go down and let me figure it out. Don't keep passing the problem up to me without proposing a solution. You have so many brains and can't figure it out. How can you expect me to come up with anything with just one brain?"

"Bang!" The emperor angrily slammed the memorial onto the table, and the ministers lowered their heads even more.

"Is there no good news? All of you can only talk big, but become mute when it comes to serious matters? At this rate, Shenyu Nation will soon be a weak country!"

After a while, a voice came:

"News has come from Nanshan County that under the leadership of King Rui, the local plague has been basically controlled and is in a stable state. All patients have turned into mild symptoms. It is estimated that the plague can be completely eliminated in five days at most." Prime Minister Zhang Ju'an said.

"Oh?! Is this true?"

The emperor was overjoyed and exclaimed in surprise.

The Prince of Rui was none other than the third prince Li Congzhou. At that time, Li Congzhou happened to be visiting Nanshan County, so he simply sent him there. He originally did not have much hope for him.

Later, seeing that there was no movement, the emperor sent his younger brother, the Xian Wang, who was now 38 years old and had become the emperor's right-hand man after years of experience.

"Now, the wise king has already set off for Nanshan County. He just left yesterday. Why not call him back?" Zhang Ju'an suggested.

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Forget it! Tell him not to worry, just walk slowly, and let him relax."

"Yes!" Zhang Ju'an replied.

The emperor continued, "King Rui has lived up to everyone's expectations and eradicated the plague. He deserves a reward!"

"But as far as I know, this plague is not caused by King Rui, but by the miracle medicine." A little Karami stepped out and said.

"How did a small prefect like you know about this? The news of the plague was spread through superstition. Did you peek at the secret letter? Or did you enter the epidemic area to steal the miracle medicine?"

Zhang Ju'an raised his eyebrows and questioned in a stern voice. The majesty in his voice made little Karami shudder.

"This... This humble minister only heard it from hearsay. How could this humble minister have the guts to open the secret letter and steal the magic medicine? Your Majesty, please understand!"

Little Karami knelt on the ground trembling all over. He looked at Chengxuzhang for help, hoping that he could speak for him. Unexpectedly, Chengxuzhang didn't even look at him and completely ignored his existence.

"What? Someone entered the epidemic area to steal the magic medicine? This is outrageous!"

The emperor suddenly jumped up from the dragon throne and roared.

Zhang Ju'an bowed his hands and said respectfully, "Your Majesty, that's exactly what happened. We finally found a miracle drug in the epidemic area, but someone got the news and went straight into the epidemic area to steal it."

Zhang Ju'an glanced at everyone in the court, trying to find some clues from their faces, but everyone had their heads down and no emotion could be seen.

"What happened next? What happened?" the emperor asked curiously.

Zhang Ju'an retracted his gaze and said:

"Fortunately, Miss Tang, who donated the miracle drug, was smart and prepared a tube of fake medicine. The bad guys didn't know about it, so they took the fake medicine away and did not delay the treatment of the epidemic."

The emperor breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and slowly sat back on the throne.

Zhang Ju'an knelt down solemnly and said:

"Otherwise, if the epidemic is not eradicated, the entire Shenyu Kingdom will suffer! This is not without precedent. The previous Loulan Kingdom is a good example. Because of the epidemic, the country was overthrown! Your Majesty, please investigate this matter thoroughly!"

All the ministers shook when they heard this. They never thought that they had been so close to death!

"Your Majesty, please investigate this matter thoroughly!" Zhang Ju'an's party and some neutral factions knelt down and pleaded.

The emperor looked at the reactions of the crowd and said, "Don't worry, my lords. This is related to the survival of a country. I will never tolerate it! My dear lord Ji!"

"I'm here!" Ji Zuyin stepped out and replied.

"From now on, you have one month to thoroughly investigate this matter and dig out the person behind the scenes! I want the truth, do you understand?" Every word the emperor said was powerful!

"I obey your order! I will live up to your expectations!" Ji Zuyin replied.

"Your Majesty, actually...it's not difficult to investigate this matter, because this miraculous medicine is actually the legendary golden dragon blood!"

"Bang!" The tablet in the hand of Liu Qingyang, the director of the Imperial Observatory, fell to the ground.

"Lord Liu, what's wrong with you?"

The emperor looked at Liu Qingyang with dissatisfaction and asked, with an obvious warning in his tone.

"It's okay, Your Majesty, I just didn't hold it firmly for a moment." Liu Qingyang pretended to be calm and picked up the tablet on the ground and replied.

But immediately there was an uproar in the hall.

"Golden dragon blood? Could it be golden snake blood? After all, snakes are also little dragons. But it's the first time I've heard of snake blood being able to cure plague."

"Golden dragon blood? What is golden dragon blood? Are there really dragons in this world?"

"I also said that I saw a dragon when I was a child, and the adults laughed at me and said I was dazzled. But to me, dragons really do exist in this world."

"Since Golden Dragon Blood has such miraculous effects, why not offer a nationwide reward and find a hunter to catch one and raise it. Then, wouldn't my Shenyu Nation no longer be afraid of the plague?"

The emperor was furious and shouted, "Quiet! Quiet!"

When the ministers saw that the emperor was angry, they immediately fell silent. The noisy hall seemed to be poured with cold water and cooled down instantly.

"My dear Minister Liu, it's just right. Tell me, are there dragons in this world?" The emperor stared at Liu Qingyang and spoke word by word.

Liu Qingyang looked up at the emperor's expression and analyzed his intentions. After a moment, Liu Qingyang said firmly:

"It is true that our Shenyu Nation is protected by a golden dragon, but this golden dragon can only be seen when summoned by our emperor. If someone has seen it before, there are two possibilities. One is that they are dazzled, and the other is that they have confused dreams with reality."

The emperor looked at Yang Qing with satisfaction, and was obviously very satisfied with Liu Qingyang's answer. He just wanted this feeling that seemed to exist, but seemed to be only available to the emperor. Otherwise, anyone could see it. Wouldn't the Shenyu Kingdom, which was protected by the golden dragon, lose its mystery?

Liu Qingyang saw that the emperor was obviously relieved, but his mood was quite complicated.
