Emperor Lan Chong sighed, said nothing more, and said:

"This Empress Gongsun, as the Minister of War, did not control the epidemic properly, causing the people of Hangzhou and Sichuan to die in the midst of water and fire. I must not spare him this time."

To be honest, you didn't protect my prince and let my favorite son get infected with the plague.

Killing you ten thousand times will not relieve my hatred!

But before he could figure out what to do with Gongsun Hou, he immediately asked: "Zhao Yao, what do you think?"

Zhao Yao bowed and said, "Your Majesty, according to the old slave's humble opinion, the power of Hangzhou and Sichuan is complicated. The prefect Cong Zhongzhi is just a puppet he has built up, and there is no talent. This is the time when people are used, and no one dares to go there. Once he is taken down, no one will replace him, Hangzhou and Sichuan will be in chaos, which is not conducive to the control of the epidemic..."

Zhao knew that His Majesty the Emperor was afraid of the Three Kingdoms' gold medals and could not have really taken the head of Gongsun Queen's neck. This was giving him a way out.

It means that Your Majesty, you are the most honorable person. You cannot kill him because of the epidemic, not because you are afraid of the Three Kingdoms’ Gold Store.

The self-esteem of being an emperor is not ordinary.

Zhao Yao's answer was deeply touched by Emperor Lan Chong's heart. Emperor Lan Chong's appearance was slightly improved and said:

"But we have to be held accountable. After all, it was his negligence that caused the fifth prince to get infected. If he was let go, how could I explain to my prince?"

Zhao Yao still advised: "No one is available here, so please think twice."

This conversation between the master and the servant is half true and half acting.

It's true that no one can use it, and it's not like to act on Queen Gongsun.

Together, the meaning is: if someone can use it, even if the emperor is in trouble with the face of the Three Kingdoms Jinshang, he can punish Gongsun Queen and exclaim the anger of having a beloved son getting sick.

The problem is that no one can use it now. The southern part is plague. After taking down Gongsun Hou, who dares to go to Hangchuan to pick up his seat?

It can be promoted from Hangzhou and Sichuan. The entire Hangzhou and Sichuan bureaucratic group are basically the people of Gongsun Hou, and it can be said that they are all puppets that are unbearable.

Including the right assistant minister of the Ministry of War Gongsun Jian.

Empress Gongsun could not manage the plague well, so these mediocre talents naturally would not do it.

So it is really hard to deal with Queen Gongsun in the short term.

If you want to punish an official, you have to look forward to it and be afraid of this and that.

The angry Emperor Lan Chong tightened the armrest of the dragon chaise hard, and his knuckles turned white.

I, the emperor, am really frustrated...

...

"The emperor is still not brave enough, and he doesn't even dare to issue an order to kill Gongsun Queen..."

Xu Tian shook his head and sighed, "I am afraid of wolves in front and tigers in the back." This emperor is not good."

"The Gongsun family, who are afraid of the Three Kingdoms' Jinshang, are worried that they will take off Gongsun Hou's black hat and no one will follow..."

Xu Tian could basically guess what the emperor was thinking.

Logically speaking, the emperor's original plan was to delegate power to him, let him manage the plague, and then find an opportunity to kill him.

But these can only be carried out by Gongsun Hou manipulating him.

Empress Gongsun was equivalent to a knife in the emperor's hand, used to remove one of his swords.

As long as he has this knife, even if Xu Tian has the credit for preventing and controlling the epidemic, he will be counted on Queen Gongsun. In turn, he can also kill the donkey and send him to see the King of Hell.

That's why he didn't dare to tell others that he had a vaccine to prevent and control the epidemic.

Now, once Queen Gongsun was removed, Xu Tian would be like a wild horse that had taken off his reins. No one in Hangzhou and Sichuan could restrain him as the Minister of War.

The infection of the fifth prince is the most critical part.

I wish that the emperor had learned his bloody lesson and could only put the rectification of the plague first.

When the emperor hated Empress Gongsun, he stood up and told the emperor that he had a way to cure the plague.

He became the only life-saving straw in front of the emperor.

The emperor would most likely be willing to give it a try.

Xu Tian immediately ordered his servant to polish the ink and prepare to write a new memorial as planned, which was the content he recommended himself.

It was time to reveal his trump card, announce the vaccine, make the emperor believe that he has the ability to manage this plague, and promote him to become the Minister of War.

He was not greedy for the position of Minister of War, but just because of this, Empress Gongsun fell.

At that time, you will be demoted to a commoner at the least, and at the worst, you will be demoted to the commoner.

But... his vaccine can only prevent problems before it happens, but there is nothing to do with those who are already sick.

In fact, Xu Tian is not 100% sure whether there is enough impact to make the emperor feel at ease to remove Gongsun Queen and help him to take over the throne.

After all, what the emperor cares most about is the life and death of the fifth prince. As for the epidemic among the people, he may not necessarily care about it.

But I can also use the case of the fifth prince being infected with the epidemic to warn the emperor that if the epidemic is left alone, the royal family will be threatened...

In this way, the emperor should have to allow him to take office and manage the epidemic.

Just as he was about to finish writing, he suddenly realized that the system's lottery button was red again.

Before I knew it, a whole month had passed in a blink of an eye.

Xu Tian first pressed the lottery button.

【Get Tai Yi Sheng Water*1】

【Can cure all diseases】

"Wow, can you cure all diseases?"

Xu Tianjing, can such treasures be opened in the system?

If you have this thing, you won’t have to mess with the vaccination vaccine before.

Immediately he opened the inventory and pressed the icon of Taiyisheng Water Blue Jade Bottle.

【Is it extracted?】

【whether】

Of course, choose yes.

A flash of light appeared in his palm, and an exquisite blue jade bottle appeared out of thin air, exactly the same as the one on the icon.

He opened the bottle cap and took a careful look inside. It was a crystal blue liquid.

This thing should be useful at critical moments.

Xu Tian's mind moved and put the blue jade bottle into the inventory.

It's really like God's help!

This thing is even better than a vaccine!

With this, he was more confident in competing for the position of Shangshu.

Vaccines can only prevent smallpox virus. For people who have already suffered from smallpox, it is hard to save the gods.

But now he can even cure smallpox patients, which will have a great impact on the court!

Now it's stable!

Xu Tian waved his pen and wrote a memorial that he was sure that the emperor had to compromise. He would present him in person soon!

...

"Bold Xu Tian! Bold Xu Tian! You want to rebel, you want to rebel!"

In the imperial study, the emperor's furious slap came.

The old eunuch Zhao wanted to quickly bow to him and caress his back: "Your Majesty calms down! The dragon body is the most important thing!"

"Look, look at what this guy wrote. He said he could cure the plague and had even developed a method to cure patients. However, due to the pressure of the Minister of War, he could not practice it. The implication was that he wanted me to get rid of Gongsun for him before he was willing to take action..."

Emperor Lan Chong was so angry that he clenched his teeth. He had always been calm and gentle, but he lost his composure twice in a short period of time because of some of Xu Tian's small movements.

"He is threatening me!"

At the same time, Xu Tianzheng, who was far away in Hangzhou, looked at the sky in the north, and under the wind-blowing hair, there were thin lips slightly raised.

That’s right, my dear Emperor, I’m just threatening you.

I bet 50 cents, you will definitely be obedient.
Chapter completed!
