"The prime minister is right, the minister has already sent people to guard the various communication points to ensure that the plague will not continue to spread. Moreover, before I came to the palace, I received a secret fold that the cure for the plague had been developed and had been preliminarily verified, so the people in the disaster area were saved. General Sima Yun said.

"Oh, there's such a thing, I'll bring it up and take a look." The Emperor said.

After all, so many people died in this natural disaster, and those unsubservient people in Ziyao Kingdom spread rumors, saying that it was caused by the emperor's misconduct, which made those rebels ready to move, if they couldn't handle this matter well, I am afraid that the rebels would incite the people to revolt.

Although the emperor was not afraid of this threat, he did not want anyone to cause trouble in his own country, so he said: "Since there is a cure for the plague, then send someone to send medicinal herbs to cure the sick people." In addition, you have already controlled the people who spread rumors and incited the people before, and now is a good time to close the net, I hope to catch them all, understand? ”

The general Sima Yun said: "The ministers should do everything they can to eradicate the thieves. ”

The emperor summoned a few ministers to come, in addition to these national events, there is also a matter of asking about the queen's candidate, the emperor got married at the age of 15, and then the pro-government has been 5 years now, but a few days ago, the original queen died of illness, leaving only a princess, before the court also had ministers to say that they would establish the queen early, and now several people are the emperor's henchmen, so the emperor wants to listen to the opinions of several ministers.

"The queen mother is already urging me to make a queen early, I don't know what you Aiqing thinks." The Emperor asked.

"It stands to reason that we can't comment on the affairs of the emperor's harem, but after a country, it is also related to government affairs, so the minister will say his opinion. The harem is now temporarily vacant in the middle palace, and the emperor can choose a suitable concubine from the harem to be promoted to the queen, or he can remarry the queen. In the harem, only Concubine Hui, Concubine Ru, Concubine De, and Concubine Jia are qualified to win the position of queen. If you think about remarrying, then you have to have a draft, the emperor has only been drafted when he got married, and now it is a good time to choose another time. The prime minister said.

Nangong Jue thought about the Prime Minister's words, the Queen Mother secretly intended that Concubine Jia was the queen, but Concubine Jia was the queen mother's family, if Concubine Jia became the queen again, then you need to pay attention to the threat of relatives, besides, the queen mother is not the emperor's biological mother, Nangong Jue can give the queen concubine a concubine is already the limit, it is impossible to go further, otherwise the situation will be dangerous in the future.

Now that the queen's death has nothing to do with the queen mother, the emperor himself doesn't believe it, but unfortunately there is no evidence, plus the queen mother is an elder, and the emperor can only be filial to the queen mother on the surface. The queen mother used to be the queen, but unfortunately she never had a son, only two princesses, so she raised Nangong Jue, if it was just like this, Nangong Jue would be filial to the other party, after all, it was also because of the other party's support that Nangong Jue became a concubine and ascended the throne.

Nangong Jue was also very filial before, unlike today's only superficial, but sincere. When Nangong was very young, because of an accident, he learned that he was not born to the queen, but the son of a talented person. However, no matter how young the royal child is, he can't be treated as an ordinary child, and after learning the news, Nangong will never move, but he is more filial to the queen, after all, he is not biological, and he may be abandoned.

Of course, Nangong Jue has always done very well, since the death of the Emperor Taishang, the queen supported the ten-year-old Nangong Jue. It's a pity that at that time, in order to stabilize her position, the current queen mother did not let Nangong know that she was not the emperor's biological mother in the future, and murdered a talented person.

Although Nangong Jue knows that only following the queen, that is, the current queen mother, is the best, the heavenly family has no family affection, not to mention a talented person who is not good for himself, a good talent is just a palace maid After being favored by the emperor, because she gave birth to Nangong Juecai was named a talented person, it is absolutely no good for Nangong.

But no matter what, it was Nangong Jue's mother-in-law, the Queen Mother killed a talented person, and she buried a thorn in Nangong Jue's heart, how could Nangong Jue be grateful and treat the Queen Mother like before. It was also at that time that Nangong had not yet ascended the throne, and he did not have the strength to fight against the Queen Mother, otherwise, if he grabbed the evidence, he might still convict the Queen Mother.

It's a pity that when Nangong Jue is really in power, it's too late to find evidence, Nangong has never gotten along with his biological mother, and his feelings are not deep, it's just a blood connection. The emperor has always been raised by the queen mother, although there is a thorn in his heart, but the grace of nurturing is also real, so Nangong Jue has always been a filial emperor.

But today's choice of the queen can't make the queen mother happy, and when Nangong is never in power, she can refuse the queen mother's niece as the queen, let alone now.

Concubine Jia must not be the queen, but several concubines in the palace can't take on the big responsibility, either the identity is not enough, or the virtuous is not enough, embarrassing the queen's big responsibility, as for the draft, now is the drought, and there is the plague, it is really not the best time for the draft, so the emperor feels that the queen's affairs are still discussed after a while.

"The queen candidate, the matter is big, and now there is a natural disaster, it is really not suitable for the draft, so wait for the draft next year, select a group of concubines and concubines to have a rich harem, if there is someone who can take on the big responsibility, then it is not too late to be promoted to the queen later. After all, the queen has only passed away at this time, and it is a natural disaster**, and the queen mother should be highly considerate and postpone the selection of the queen. Dugu said.

"What the emperor said is very true." The prime minister said.

In the disaster area, through the efforts of doctors, a method for treating the plague was finally developed, and although it was not 100% cured, it was much better than dying from infection before. Besides, in this era, even if the wind and cold are not good, people will die, let alone the plague, so it is already very good to be able to get five or six percent better.

With the medicinal materials allocated by the imperial court, the plague in the disaster area was gradually controlled, and the death toll dropped significantly. The cure for the plague also spread in the fastest time, because with the cure, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the knife that was across the head was finally gone.

In less than a month, countless patients recovered their health, and with proper treatment, the plague did not continue to infect others, so the plague was basically over. Coupled with the previous rain, it seems that this disaster has finally passed.
