After the initial panic, Lin Wanqing calmed down.
Smallpox was very famous in the previous century, so its origin and solutions were mentioned many times in textbooks.
At this moment, she was extremely grateful that she had been a medical worker in her previous life, and that she knew how to prevent smallpox.
However, smallpox had been eradicated in her previous life, and her knowledge was limited to what she had seen in books; she had not yet put it into practice.
After regaining her senses, Lin Wanqing was overjoyed.
This was simply an opportunity given to her by God!
Thinking of this, Lin Wanqing met the probing gaze of the Northern King and calmed herself down.
Some things shouldn't be made too easy, otherwise people will think it's too easy and won't show her ability.
It's important to know that countless people died during the process of discovering and finding a solution to smallpox.
"Your Majesty, what is your opinion on this matter?"
Lin Wanqing suppressed her excitement and tried her best to keep her tone calm.
"Your Majesty, judging from Chief Hui Piao's description, this disease is a new type of epidemic. Please allow me to go down and study it, consult ancient books, and find a solution."
However, for the safety of Your Majesty and the other people of Beili, I request Your Majesty to send people to seal off the Frostmoon Tribe and prevent anyone from leaving. Otherwise, the spread of this plague and the resulting panic would be disastrous.
King Bei Li nodded, agreeing with Lin Wanqing's assessment. He knew how terrible the plague was from Chief Hui Piao's description.
Seeing Lin Wanqing's previous decisiveness, the Northern King had even more confidence in her. "Does Your Majesty have the confidence to resolve this epidemic?"
For a country, if an uncontrollable epidemic breaks out and kills people, it can lead to the country's demise in severe cases.
"Your Majesty, I am a disciple of the renowned physician Cai of the Great Chu Dynasty, and I will do my utmost to find a solution. I am about 60-70% confident. Of course, to be on the safe side, Your Majesty can also have the imperial physicians in the palace work together to find a way to treat this epidemic," Lin Wanqing replied.
If she is left to do the research alone, how can her abilities be demonstrated?
When no one else can find a solution, and she reappears to solve the epidemic, wouldn't she become the goddess in the hearts of the people of Beili?
On that day, the support of the people of Beili will be a very important protection for her.
"Very well, I hope the Queen will not disappoint me." King Bei Li looked at Lin Wanqing with satisfaction.
"Your Majesty, I must go and study the epidemic. I shall take my leave now." Lin Wanqing bowed slightly.
"Thank you for your trouble, Your Majesty. If Your Majesty can cure the plague, I will have the shaman pray to Heaven to bestow upon Your Majesty the title of Goddess of Northern Li." King Bei Li said with a doting smile.
The status of the Divine Shaman in Bei Li is similar to that of the Imperial Advisor of Xiao Yue. She is the medium through which Bei Li communicates with the heavens. A goddess who can be recognized by the Divine Shaman has a status in Bei Li that far surpasses that of the Queen.
To put it bluntly, the queen can be changed at will, while the goddess will be enshrined in the Northern Li Temple as a statue and worshipped by the people of Northern Li.
Even goddesses can have their own guards to protect their safety.
Lin Wanqing's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and she felt a surge of excitement. She was determined to become the Goddess of Bei Li!
Watching Lin Wanqing's departing figure, the smile on the face of the Northern King vanished.
"Guards, convey my decree of amnesty: seal off the Frostmoon Tribe. Anyone attempting to escape is to be shot dead!"
"yes!"
"Send someone to keep an eye on the Queen. Report any moves she makes immediately, but don't let the Queen find out. Also, summon the Prince Qin to me."
"yes!"
Wanyan Da sat on the throne, slowly stroking the white jade ring on his left thumb. "My good queen, don't disappoint me."
