Soon, General Su entered the palace under the pretext of reporting on the military reserves in Jiangnan.
In the hall, General Su spoke cheerfully about the epidemic in Jiangnan. He made it sound as if the epidemic in Jiangnan was under such good control only because of him.
Yuwen Ran was very annoyed: "What exactly does General Su want to say?"
"I would like Your Majesty to make my sister the queen."
Yuwen Ran smiled and said, "I already have a queen, why should I appoint another one? General Su, you are busy with the affairs of the previous dynasty, so I don't need you to worry about my harem!"

"Your Majesty! Something bad has happened!"
Seeing the people outside the palace frantically rushing about, Yuwen Ran said helplessly, "What happened?"
