Chapter 491 The Princess' Decision

Ever since Su Xian mentioned the word "plague", Li Youqing felt a little sad.

She is powerless, and she is really powerless in this matter, so she doesn't want to mention it too much. She doesn't like that feeling of powerlessness, and there is always a suffocating aggrieved feeling.

In her opinion, the plague is equivalent to birth, old age, sickness and death. It is a fate destined by God, how can mortals change it?
In fact, the practice of "sealing a whole village if one person is infected with the plague" has been used since ancient times, and there is no need to discuss it alone.

It serves no purpose other than to add to the sadness.

When a plague is discovered, just follow this method and there is nothing to discuss.

But Su Xian seemed dissatisfied with this approach.

In Li Youqing's view, this was more or less "unreasonable making trouble". Dissatisfaction with the handling of the plague was like dissatisfaction with "why the dead don't try to save them".

Meaningless!

After all, Su Xian was different in her heart, occupying an important position, so she patiently explained to Su Xian alone... If it had been anyone else, she would have thrown away her sleeves and left.

But I never thought that Su Xian would actually say... the invisible and intangible plague can be prevented!And he knows how to prevent it!
"What did you say?!"

Li Youqing stood up and stared at Su Xian.

Because the action was too violent, a "turbulent wave" was set off in the chest. Wang Sima and other officials were so panicked that they immediately lowered their heads and did not dare to look around.

But Li Youqing didn't notice it at all.

She was extremely shocked at this moment.

Su Xian's words are equivalent to saying: "I can bring the dead back to life!"

Her first reaction was that Su Xian was talking nonsense. This was too unbelievable. The occurrence or non-occurrence of the plague was God's will. Why do you, a mortal, resist God's will?
But the next moment she felt something was wrong.

The person who said this is Su Xian!
With Su Xian's previous method of "making the impossible possible", she actually believed half of it and hurriedly asked: "Do you have a way to prevent the plague? What is the specific way?"

Wang Sima and others immediately looked at Su Xian. They had different thoughts. Except for Zhou Ji's Office, they didn't really believe Su Xian's words, especially Wang Sima.

He is over 60 years old, has experienced too much, and has witnessed the growth of countless geniuses. He would never believe Su Xian's words... to defeat God's will?Totally impossible!
Su Xian took a step forward, met Li Youqing's hopeful and suspicious eyes, and said decisively: "Your Majesty does have a way to prevent the plague from happening."

Li Youqing couldn't sit still anymore, got up and walked downstairs, stood in front of Su Xian, looked into his eyes and asked:

"Su Zhenyi, this matter is not a trivial matter. If you really have a way to prevent the plague, it will be a good deed that benefits the people of the world! If it is really effective and can prevent the plague from happening, I will definitely write to His Majesty to ask for your credit!"

Su Xian bowed and said, "I know that this matter is of great importance and I don't dare to play with it."

Zhou Ji's office said anxiously: "Oh, Su Zhenyi, please tell me quickly, what is the solution? It can also help the princess and us to clear up the confusion!"

Wang Sima and other officials who did not believe Su Xian's words did not say anything, let alone taunt him. They just watched Su Xian waiting for his words.

At the moment, Su Xian wasted no time and listed some common preventive measures for future generations——

Including wearing gloves, wearing masks, drinking boiled water, garbage disposal, waste disposal, paying attention to ventilation, disinfection, forced isolation, etc...

After everyone heard it, they didn't understand it very well.

Some of them frowned, some were thoughtful, some were doubtful, some were stunned, and they had various expressions.

Su Xian gave them time to digest and absorb. After all, although these measures seemed simple, they were also the result of countless sacrifices and accumulated gains, and the process was not easy.

After a long time.

Li Youqing's beautiful eyebrows were still frowning, and her eyes were still flickering with suspicion. She couldn't fully understand it with her knowledge, so she was confused about whether to accept it or not.

If it were something else, she might be able to nod in agreement without understanding.

But this matter involves "God's will"!
Inherent concepts cannot be changed by Su Xian with just a few words.

In the end, she returned to the handsome chair and sat down, frowning and asked, "What do you think about the plague prevention method proposed by Su Consulting?"

Although Zhou Ji's office didn't understand, he still stood firmly on Su Xian's side. He first said: "Your Highness, Su Consultation will not be misguided. Maybe we can give it a try."

Wang Sima immediately raised objections:
"The method of preventing the plague is easy to say, Su said, but it is not easy to implement in practice. For example, just drinking boiled water requires countless manpower and material resources, not to mention waste disposal, disinfection, etc."

Another officer went on to say:

"What Wang Sima said is reasonable. The urgent need now is to mobilize limited manpower and material resources to provide full disaster relief and help the victims tide over the difficulties. As for other attempts..."

"..."

After listening to everyone's opinions, Li Youqing pondered for a long time, and finally looked at Su Xian and asked, "Does Su Xian have anything to add?"

Su Xian said:

"As Wang Sima said, the methods to prevent the plague are indeed complicated, but in my opinion, these are all worth it, because this can save countless people!"

"The people are the cornerstone of the imperial court. Only with the people can we have everything! I still recommend that the method of preventing the plague be implemented immediately. If it fails, it will only waste some manpower and material resources."

"But once it succeeds, it will prove that this method is effective... Not to mention benefiting the people of the world, it is also a great thing for His Highness."

"..."

Su Xian didn't say the last sentence clearly.

But everyone in the tent understood it.

To put it simply, if the plague is successfully prevented, Li Youqing will have made a great contribution. This is a proper "political achievement"!
As expected, Li Youqing's eyes lit up after hearing this. Gaining political achievements was a fatal temptation for her, and Su Xian's appointment as a marquis and joining the internal guards still needed strong merit...

She hesitated for a long time, staring at Su Xian with burning eyes, and asked for the last time: "Is the method to prevent the plague really effective?"

Su Xian knew that he could not hesitate at this time and said firmly: "It will definitely work!"

"it is good!"

Li Youqing made a decisive decision, clapped her hands and stood up, saying loudly: "Starting immediately, we will implement the method to prevent the plague immediately. I have made up my mind. There is no need to discuss this matter again!"

"The princess is wise!" Wang Sima and other officials bowed together. Although they were not optimistic about this method, the princess said so, so they had no choice but to accept it.

"This method is rather cumbersome. It's best for Su Zhiyi to go there himself, but..." Li Youqing hesitated, she wanted to keep Su Xian for advice at any time, and besides, the disaster area is also dangerous.

"Your Highness, I am willing to go!" Zhou Jishi took the initiative to take over this difficult task.

Li Youqing was overjoyed and nodded: "If you go, I can rest assured. You and Su Shenyi should consult carefully and set off as soon as you are ready."
