But before the two of them could enter the palace, the emperor summoned them.

As soon as I entered the palace, I didn't expect that the eldest prince Nangong Yue was also here.

As soon as the two were summoned in, they noticed something strange in the air.

Nangong Yue raised his eyebrows slightly when he saw the two people coming in.

"Father, this plague is of great importance. If someone interferes, I'm afraid it will only exacerbate the plague."

The three words "interested person" have a hidden meaning. Li Tangyi felt the emperor's sharp eyes were on her.

"Princess Xiao, I heard that you stopped the officials from burning the plague patients. Is that true?"

There was a hint of pressure in his words, and Nangong Jin pulled her to her knees.

"Father, Tang Yi is sincere and is not trying to stop you, but she doesn't want to leave you with the reputation of a tyrant."

Li Tangyi rarely had the same thoughts with him, and she also understood that Nangong Yue was using chicken feathers as a token of authority and had come to the palace to slander her first!

"Father, I know that burning is a last resort, but the people of the capital are already worried about their safety. If the people are angry, it may be bad for you."

She looked heartbroken and pointed the finger at the eldest prince Nangong Yue.

“Although my brother obeyed the emperor’s order, he did something that disregarded human life.

Not all beggars in the ruined temple in the west of the city were infected with the plague, but he wanted to arrest them all. I had no choice but to stop him. "

Nangong Yan's expression changed several times, and finally fell on Nangong Yue.

"Is it true?"

Nangong Yue forehead

He broke out in a cold sweat, and while he hated Li Tangyi, he did not forget to defend himself.

“Father, the ruined temple in the west of the city is the source of all plagues.

I would rather kill someone by mistake than let them go. Princess Xiao tried to stop me and in the end I was not able to take anyone away.

If we don’t deal with the beggars in the dilapidated temple, the infection in the city will become more serious!"

Nangong Yan slammed the table in anger. He had never had a good impression of Li Tangyi, the princess who was always showing off her power, so naturally he would choose to listen to one side of the story.

"If you don't make a decision when you should, you will suffer the consequences. Princess Xiao's compassion seems to be misplaced!

You said that my burning method was a last resort, and you also obstructed me, so I have to consider whether you did it intentionally or deliberately!"

Nangong Yue's lips curled slightly.

"Father, I think my brother and his wife also know they are wrong.

The most important thing right now is the plague. Please let me take full control of it. I will definitely be able to resolve this matter within three days."

Nangong Yan showed appreciation and was about to nod his agreement to draft the imperial edict.

Li Tangyi just felt filled with sadness.

She is a modern person born in a peaceful era, and the idea of ​​equality for all is engraved deep in her soul.

I really can't stand the fact that two people can decide the life and death of thousands of people with just a few words.

"Father, I have a way to cure the plague!"

Li Tangyi simply stopped hiding it and spoke directly.

She is doing this for the benefit of all people in the world. As a doctor, she cannot ignore the people.

At this time, the hall fell into a brief silence.

quiet.

Nangong Yue was the first to react and sneered disdainfully.

"Princess Xiao, please don't rush to seek medical help. No one has ever dared to say such nonsense since ancient times. If you deceive the emperor for a little pity, do you know what crime you will be charged with?"

Li Tangyi was not afraid at all and raised her head.

"Since I dare to say it, I can definitely do it."

She looked up again and saluted Nangong Yan who was sitting at the top.

"Father, I have a medicine that can cure the plague. I am working on its production and it will be available to a large number of plague patients soon.

Rather than burning patients and causing complaints from the people, Your Majesty, why not let me give it a try?

It is better to find the root cause than to try to stop the boiling water by adding more water. "

Nangong Yan stared at her without saying anything, as if he was thinking about the pros and cons.

Nangong Yue was afraid that Li Tangyi would steal his credit. He could get endless praise for doing such a simple thing as burning a few people. How could he tolerate Li Tangyi intercepting him halfway?

He seemed a little agitated and spoke in a bad tone.

"Princess Xiao, please think carefully. Don't let the plague get out of control because of your own reckless behavior.

By then, all the lives of the people in Ningguo Mansion won’t be able to pay for it!"

Nangong Yan was influenced by his words.

"Your method is too risky. The patient will continue to be infected while the medicine is being made, and it will take time for him to recover.

If something goes wrong with the medicine, or you can't be cured at all.

Then more people will be burned in the end, and I cannot take that risk."

To put it bluntly, he

I still don’t trust Li Tangyi.

Although she cured the Queen Mother and rescued Shuo'er, it did not prove that she could do something that no one had ever done since ancient times.

"Father..."

"No need to say more, Yue'er, I'll leave this matter to you."

Before Li Tangyi could finish her words, she was interrupted by Nangong Yan, with an unquestionable tone.

Li Tangyi showed disappointment. She had little influence here and could not shake the decision of an emperor. Even if she made medicine privately to save people, it would be like a gnat trying to shake a tree.

"I will guarantee her."

Nangong Jin, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke, and the eyes of the three people in the hall were focused.

Li Tangyi opened her mouth slightly, not knowing what to say.

Oh, this guy finally behaves like a man.

He really has something to do.

“I have been in the clinic with the princess these days and have seen the therapeutic effects of the medicine. It does have a significant effect.

And it works quickly. It takes a lot of time to search for plague patients and burn them together. Why not let the princess try it?"

Nangong Jin's words still have weight and credibility. At least Nangong Yan's mind has changed from complete distrust to half-belief and half-doubt.

"It's not enough to just talk without evidence. Princess Xiao must do something to convince others."

With Nangong Jin as a guarantor, Li Tangyi knew that she could not back down.

"Father, you can let me give it a try. We will know if it works or not."

Nangong Yue saw that there was no way to stop

There is no real cure for this disease, and we can only place our hope on Li Tangyi.

"If you are lying, do you expect the emperor to let you do whatever you want?"

Li Tangyi sneered. She had never been unconfident about her medical skills.

"I hereby issue a military warrant. If the disease is not cured, I am willing to accept the punishment."

Nangong Yan thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement. He didn't want to kill innocent people and be cursed for it, as there were drugs that could suppress it.

"In that case, I will give you this opportunity. There is a noblewoman in the villa outside the city who has also been infected with the plague and is dying. If you can cure her, I will hand over the disaster relief to you."

"Thank you, Father."

The two of them left the palace and rushed to the villa outside the city without stopping.

There were constant wailing sounds along the way, and Li Tangyi didn't even have the heart to lift the car curtain to take a look at the miserable situation outside.

Nangong Jin looked at the compassionate sadness in her eyes and felt slightly touched.

A person who cares about all people in the world and has compassion for the people deserves his respect.

Regardless of what this woman was like in the past, her behavior today was enough to change his mind.

It was not until she arrived at the villa that Li Tangyi realized that the noble lady the old emperor had mentioned was actually the emperor's wet nurse.

She is very old, about seventy years old.

The skin on his face was wrinkled and looked sickly pale. He was holding onto the bed with his skinny hands and coughing uncontrollably.

Although he is called a noble, there are only a handful of people serving him in the entire villa. Even when he is so sick, there is still no one to serve him. It can be seen that the emperor is cold and indifferent.
