Quick Wear: Saving Three Thousand Matches

Calculating the time, it won’t be long before the epidemic breaks out.

It took Jin Jiusi nearly a month before he and the imperial physicians from the Imperial Medical Bureau developed a large amount of antidote to treat the epidemic.

The most urgent task is to distribute the antidote to every citizen of Donghua.

It will neither alarm the people nor cause panic, and it will benefit the millions of people in Donghua.

After much thought, Jin Jiusi decided that throwing the antidote into the water would be quicker and more convenient.

Soon, the head of the Imperial Medical Bureau submitted a memorial to the Imperial Study, reporting that the envoys from Xijiang and Nanli had contracted the disease, which had not been completely cured but temporarily suppressed.

Feng Qiansu and Qi Lingyue were terrified and angrily scolded the dean for delaying the report. The current situation was out of control. Once the epidemic broke out, the world would be in chaos.

The head of the court, under the high pressure from the emperor and the empress, repeated Jin Jiusi's words. Feng Qiansu hurriedly summoned Jin Jiusi to ask for details.

After entering the imperial study, Jin Jiusi calmly bowed and said bluntly, "Don't panic, my royal brother and his wife. I and the Imperial Hospital have already developed an antidote that can completely eradicate the disease, but the deployment still needs to be arranged."

Feng Qiansu and Qi Lingyue felt relieved when they heard that there was an antidote.

Jin Jiusi continued, "Royal brother, you can secretly send people to place it in the wells throughout Donghua. This way, the people can drink water that is detoxifying and preventing epidemics."

Qi Lingyue asked, "Xiaojiu, is this really possible?"

Jin Jiusi smiled and said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law. Xiaojiu is willing to use his own life as a guarantee."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Even if the sky falls, the emperor's sister-in-law and your emperor's brother will hold it up." Qi Lingyue said unhappily.

Therefore, Feng Qiansu immediately issued an order to Feng Wei, requiring them to complete the task within seven days.

You know, the territory of Donghua is vast and this operation requires the full strength of all the Fengwei.

No matter how far away the border is, as long as we ride fast, we will reach our destination within five days.

Time passed quickly, and on the third day after Fengwei set out, everything happened as Jin Jiusi had expected.

The epidemic in various countries began to gradually show signs, and the epidemic was more and more severe day by day, spreading rapidly like an unstoppable torrent.

However, it is gratifying that thanks to the timely delivery of the antidote by the Fengwei, there is almost no sign of an epidemic in many areas under the jurisdiction of Donghua.

The people still live and work in peace and order, as if the raging epidemic had never hit this land.

Faced with such a situation, the spies sent by Xijiang and Nanli were completely puzzled.

They racked their brains but couldn't figure out why Donghua was the only country so lucky enough to avoid this disaster?

Various nations speculated that this epidemic was Donghua's conspiracy.

The purpose is to take the opportunity to attack and annex other countries.

The kings of Xijiang and Nanli decided to unite and put pressure on Donghua.

They sent envoys to Donghua, demanding an explanation from Feng Qiansu.

Feng Qiansu urgently summoned a group of important officials into the palace to discuss countermeasures together.

"Your Majesty, I believe it's best to share the antidote. Hiding it at this time will only deepen misunderstandings and lead to war."

"Yes, Your Majesty. If we can save the other nations now, it will be like a timely help to them. They will surely be grateful and will not easily send troops to Donghua."

"Minister, please review this."

"Minister, please review..."

At the beginning, the ministers expressed their own opinions and arguments arose in the court. However, as time went on, they miraculously reached a consensus.

But such a result gave Feng Qiansu, who was sitting on the dragon throne, an immense headache.

He gently rubbed his swollen temples and asked, "What about Yun Xiang? What do you think about this?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Chenyu, who was originally standing in the queue, walked out slowly.

He first bowed respectfully to Feng Qiansu, then said slowly, "Your Majesty, I believe there are many inappropriate aspects of this matter."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the civil and military officials in the court were shocked, and everyone turned their eyes to Yun Chenyu.

Feng Qiansu raised her eyes slightly, looked at Yun Chenyu, and signaled him with her eyes to continue speaking.

After obtaining the emperor's permission, Yun Chenyu remained calm and composed, and he expounded his views in an orderly manner.

"Your Majesty, the nations are now suspicious of me, Donghua, for no reason. If I borrow the medicine, they will take the opportunity to slander me, saying that I deliberately took this opportunity to poison them. I, Donghua, will suffer more than I gain!"

When he said this, Yun Chenyu paused for a moment, as if observing everyone's reaction.

He then continued, "Besides, this antidote was meticulously developed by Her Royal Highness the Princess, and its quantity is limited. If we agree to their request so easily, how will Her Royal Highness alone be able to create enough antidote to save them?"

When they heard that the antidote was developed by Jin Jiusi, the ministers whispered in shock.

"What? The antidote was actually developed by Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

"Your Highness the Princess also knows medical skills?"

"Her Royal Highness the Princess has eliminated this epidemic that even the Imperial Hospital is struggling with?"

After listening to Yun Chenyu's words, Feng Qiansu pretended to think for a while, then nodded.

"Yes, Prime Minister Yun is absolutely right. As a princess of my royal family, how could Lai Huang go to the trouble of refining an antidote for an enemy country?"

Prime Minister Yun smiled faintly. "Your Majesty, I have heard that the dignitaries of various nations have all been stricken by the disease, while the common people have suffered relatively little. I suppose this is God's will."

Feng Qiansu raised his eyebrows slightly, "What do you think of this heaven's will, Prime Minister Yun?"

Yun Chenyu stepped forward and presented a document with both hands. "Your Majesty, this is the information I have gathered through my investigations. The epidemic has spread to various countries, and those who have committed evil have been lingering for a long time, while those who have practiced good have been less affected. Based on this, I infer that this is Heaven's will to choose a wise ruler to unify the nations of the world."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone in the court was shocked.

Unifying all the nations is something you can’t even dream of.

Feng Qiansu took the document and began to read it. A faint smile curled up his lips as he finished. "Prime Minister Yun's statement is quite novel. Since Heaven has chosen its master, Donghua can just wait and see."

"Your Majesty, how should we accommodate the envoys from various countries who are coming to the court this time?"

"Let Prime Minister Yun handle this matter with full authority," Feng Qiansu ordered.

"My lord, I obey the order..."

Since I am here to preach, I must give you a satisfactory explanation of my true self.
