Chapter 267 The Emperor is enlightened
: Gu Huaiyu said calmly: "Father, I think this is God testing Dashuo!"
The emperor frowned: "What do you mean?"
Gu Huaiyu said slowly: "Father, this time the plague is the only one in Dashuo that has the antidote, and this is all thanks to Xiaoxiao. Xiaoxiao is the spokesperson of the goddess in the world, so I think this must be a test from the goddess, so how we deal with it is very crucial!"
Xiaoxiao's ability was originally impossible to explain, but now everyone knows that Xiaoxiao and the goddess have a lot in common.
Gu Huaiyu's words obviously moved the emperor. According to legend, the goddess was originally the favorite of heaven, but she had a heart full of pity for the world. In order to save the sentient beings of the three realms, she would rather violate the laws of heaven.
Xiaoxiao was sent by the goddess. If the goddess knew that he did not save the people of the surrounding countries, would she take back Xiaoxiao's ability or take Xiaoxiao away directly?
As long as he thought that Dashuo Kingdom did not have Xiaoxiao, he would feel uneasy.
He was clear in his mind that Dashuo could have the current situation all thanks to Xiaoxiao.
"Then go and invite Xiaoxiao here, and I'll ask him what he thinks!"
The emperor finally chose to believe Xiaoxiao.
Gu Huaiyu was a little surprised and asked, "Now?"
"Yes, now!" The emperor answered firmly.
He obviously remembered that Gu Huaiyu had just returned from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, so he said, "Forget it, you wait here, I'll let Yang Shun run a trip!"
Yang Shun said that the emperor wanted to hear the victory report from the western border in person, so he took Su Xiaoxiao into the palace.
When the emperor saw Su Xiaoxiao, he did not dare to delay and asked directly: "Xiaoxiao, I heard that there is also plague in the surrounding countries. Do you think the emperor should send the antidote to them?"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the emperor in surprise: the letter for help from Dongling and other countries should still be on the way. The emperor knew it so early. I didn't expect that his information network is quite powerful!
I always thought that the emperor was a little petty and not big enough. I didn't expect that he would still be able to help at the critical moment.
"It must be sent to them. If the emperor doesn't send them medicine, many people will die!" Su Xiaoxiao said seriously.
The emperor was still unwilling: "But the relationship between Dashuo and these countries is not very friendly!"
Su Xiaoxiao was a little disappointed: [The emperor's uncle doesn't want to save him, I still think highly of him! 】
When Gu Huaiyu heard this, he felt worried for the emperor. If Xiaoxiao lost confidence in him, he might not be willing to help Dashuo in the future.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't care whether he was the emperor or not, and asked directly: "Uncle Emperor, don't you want to save those innocent people? That doesn't matter, I still have the crystal, I will send it to them myself!"
After Su Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she felt that the big chicken drumsticks in her hands were no longer fragrant. She threw the drumsticks on the plate and prepared to leave.
The emperor already understood what Xiaoxiao meant. This man must be saved.
Su Xiaoxiao's thoughts were the goddess's thoughts.
He kept saying, "I didn't expect that although Xiaoxiao is small, she has a big vision. Don't worry, I have already given the order. Let your elder sister work harder and speed up the production of pills and send them to the surrounding countries as soon as possible!"
Su Xiaoxiao was skeptical: "Are you serious?"
The emperor smiled guiltily: "Of course it's true. Do you want me to invite your sister and ask her in person?"
How dare the emperor lie in front of Su Xiaoxiao? As long as she wants to know, there is nothing in the world that can be hidden.
He did send someone to inform Su Lingxi to speed up the production of medicine, but his original intention was that whether the medicine was given or sold, it had to be made first.
Su Xiaoxiao then took another bite of the chicken leg with satisfaction and said, "I knew that the emperor uncle would not be such a petty person.
Saving so many innocent people is a great merit."
The immeasurable merit made the emperor very happy. He could not help but look at Gu Huaiyu with admiration. This kid is better than his teacher.
After Su Xiaoxiao was sent away, Gu Huaiyu had not yet left. Xiaoxiao just said that the letters for help from various countries had not yet arrived in the capital.
Then it is better to send out this batch of medicines before receiving the letters, so that it can show that Dashuo has let bygones be bygones and has a broad mind. Giving something
only when someone asks you for it is completely different from giving it yourself when you know that someone needs it.
The kindness of helping someone in need can be remembered for a lifetime.
The emperor patted Gu Huaiyu on the shoulder with satisfaction and said, "Huaiyu, you did a great job today. The spirit of the goddess is benevolence and dedication. Now that we have been blessed by the goddess, we should pass on her spirit. I will listen to you and give these medicines to the surrounding countries for free!"
Gu Huaiyu quickly prostrated himself to the emperor and said, "Father, you are broad-minded and compassionate. You are a blessing to Dashuo and a role model for me!"
The emperor felt more proud when he heard his arrogant son praising him like this.
He raised his hand and said, "Alright, we are father and son, so let's not go through all this nonsense. Get up!"
Gu Huaiyu stood up and said, "Father is a humble gentleman with a broad mind. He does things without asking for anything in return.
But you are the king of a country, so you should always put national affairs first. I think that this friendship of helping someone in need should be maximized!"
These words hit the emperor's heart, and he asked patiently, "What do you mean?"
"Father, I believe that soon, the news that we can control the plague will spread to the surrounding countries, and their monarchs will certainly write to ask for help. If we send the pills to them before receiving the letter, they will definitely be grateful for your kindness. Even if they want to harm Dashuo in the future, they will have to worry about public pressure!"
The emperor nodded frequently: "Yes, yes, since you want to send it, you have to show sincerity. Let's arrange it now. Go down. Tomorrow morning, the first batch of medicines will be sent out from the capital. The three countries will send it out together, and there will be absolutely no favoritism!"
The emperor was originally worried about giving away such precious pills for free.
After being enlightened by Gu Huaiyu, he suddenly realized that this seemed to be a losing business, but in fact, the benefits it could bring were immeasurable.
First, your reputation as a virtuous person will last forever in the world. Second, by providing help in times of need, the monarchs of the other three countries will naturally not take this benefit in vain.
The most important thing is that he and Dashuo are the saviors of the other three countries. No matter who is in power, if they want to harm Dashuo in the future, they will do whatever they want.
They all have to consider whether the people under their control will cooperate with him.
In other words, his action not only saved those innocent people, but also earned Dashuo a talisman, which is a matter of great importance for generations to come.
The emperor became more and more excited as he thought about it, and said to Eunuch Yang: "Yang Shun, you go and make arrangements immediately. Make sure that the first batch of pills will be sent out from the capital tomorrow!"
