[System] The emperor can't do it

In the plague of Kyoto, the patients are all affected by the Lord.

Regardless of severity, all patients had sores and pus all over their bodies, and the stench was abnormal.

Just when everyone thought that the plague was about to spread to the entire continent, the number of patients stopped increasing. According to statistics, a total of 1000 people fell ill.

According to statistics, although Long Aotian also suffered from the plague, due to the emperor's protection, only a few people knew about General Long's condition.

There is no cure for this plague, and the patients suffered so much that some people even wrote to the imperial court requesting that the patients be gathered together and burned collectively to avoid future troubles.

Of course, this method was not approved by the Empress Dowager Shu Yilan. Leaving aside other people, it is only said that Long Aotian also suffered from this kind of plague. Yu Xiongying lost his wings and could no longer fly.

"Mother, stay safe and don't be impatient." After Wen Xiaonian settled Long Aotian in his bedroom, he came to Shoukang Palace anxiously, and reported to Shu Yilan about the white snake's disturbance.

"Why are you here, don't make trouble at this time, just stay in your bedroom and don't bother me."

Shu Yilan seemed to have aged ten years overnight, her face was exhausted, and even her hair was graying.Seeing the figure of the emperor, he waved his hands impatiently, and had no time to make false claims with the emperor.

Wen Xiaonian felt aggrieved, "Mother, it's not too late to drive me away after listening to me."

There is no need to explain his failed life. His image has always been that of an incompetent emperor, and he hasn't changed much after time travel. It's no wonder that Shu Yilan doesn't look at him seriously.

"I said, don't bother me—"

Shu Yilan's tone became very stern. To be able to sit in his current position, his methods and scheming needless to say, the coercion hidden in that voice is enough to make anyone willing to bow down.

However, today's Wen Xiaonian has to say what he wants to say no matter what, so even if he was taken aback by Shu Yilan's tone, he still gritted his teeth and said, "What I want to say is about this Aren't you willing to hear about the source of the plague this time, Queen Mother?"

"What? The source of the plague?" Shu Yilan was aroused, and immediately sat up straight and looked directly at Wen Xiaonian, "What do you know, tell me everything."

Since the plague broke out in Kyoto, Shu Yilan's heart has never been relaxed, and she is always thinking about how to solve this matter.He originally put his hope on Long Aotian, but he never thought that Long Aotian would not escape this catastrophe. Now it can be said that he is helpless, but at this time the emperor gave him a hope, although the hope is still very slim, but it is better than nothing.

"This plague was actually caused by a snake monster that was unsealed. General Long was also injured by him because he was fighting against the snake monster, but" Wen Xiaonian took a breath, and was about to continue explaining the situation. He heard Shu Yilan interrupt him.

"Snake demon, could it be that there is such a thing in this world, and that record is actually true..." Shu Yilan's expression became a little bewildered. There is a snake demon, and it has appeared again.

However, as the actual person in charge of Tiansheng, Shu Yilan's psychological quality is undoubtedly strong. After a short period of confusion, he immediately adjusted his mood, picked up the jasper beads in his hand and kept playing, "You continue .”

Seeing this, Wen Xiaonian realized that the queen mother must have remembered some previous records, and it seemed that she would not doubt the authenticity of his words too much, so she continued to speak with confidence, "The snake demon told us before sending us back. He will publicize the cure for the plague, and after seven days, if more people are cured than sick, he is willing to retreat to the mountains, otherwise..."

"Otherwise what?"

"He didn't specifically say..."

The two looked at each other, and both fell into silence.

In the face of such a reckless snake demon, any possibility will happen, otherwise, there are too many threats, and as the top of the Tiansheng Dynasty, the two of them cannot stand by and watch.

"We want to win this bet." Shu Yilan looked at Wen Xiaonian firmly, "However, we must be prepared to lose."

"My son means to take advantage of these seven days to send someone to find the master who catches the monster, but everything must be kept secret, otherwise the success will fall short."

The best way is of course to resolve White Snake's resentment peacefully without resorting to force.But now they don't have the opportunity to have an equal dialogue with the White Snake at all, even if they spend all their spittle, it is still difficult to shake the White Snake's mind.

Wen Xiaonian sighed in his heart, the difficulty of his task this time is not even a little bit.Matching the White Snake and the Unnamed Abbot is easy to say, but it's like climbing to heaven in practice.

For the current plan, it is the best he can do to keep the people of Kyoto from dying.

Shu Yilan pondered for a moment, and said, "Just do as you said, it's just that the cure you said, why hasn't it appeared yet?"

As soon as Shu Yilan finished speaking, he heard someone outside the hall communicate—"Report, the general Dongshoucheng has an audience."

"pass."

Shu Yilan frowned and looked at His Highness, "What's the matter?"

"Reporting to the Empress Dowager, I do not know when a notice was pasted at the East City Gate. The matter mentioned on the paper is important. I dare not make decisions without authorization, so I have to bring the notice and ask the Empress Dowager to make a decision."

Wen Xiaonian was standing beside the city defender, so he directly reached out and took the white paper in his hand, unfolded it and read it, it turned out to be the cure for the plague.

"Smear the blood of a sincere person on the affected area three times a day, and the seven-day plague will heal itself..."

Wen Xiaonian stared blankly at the black and white writing, filled with emotion, never thought that the white snake would come up with such a bad plan, with the blood of a sincere person, only the white snake who had been injured before could come up with such a method .

Wen Xiaonian seemed to understand the White Snake's intentions, he was just testing whether true love in this world could resist lies.

"What a ridiculous method, three times a day, for seven days in a row, wouldn't the one you really love lose blood and die?" After hearing about this method, Shu Yilan's heart became even heavier.

With such a cure method, it is already considered a miracle that 1000 people out of 100 people can be cured, let alone 500 people.

Could this bet be destined to lose?
