After Li Xin'er saw Cheng Shubai, she still focused on Cheng Shubai and didn't care at all what had become outside the house.

Su Xiaoxi, on the other hand, sat aside and looked worriedly at the door. Li Shangshu was not in the house at the moment.

, I don’t know whether this matter can be resolved smoothly.

Although Cheng Shubai didn't want Su Xiaoxi to see Li Xin'er, he still took Su Xiaoxi with him in order to make Li Xin'er happy.

The Li family's mansion occupies the entire street. The mansion is huge and luxurious, and looks very grand.

While Cheng Shubai and Li Shangshu were chatting, Su Xiaoxi couldn't get in the middle of the conversation, so she had to sit quietly aside and occasionally chime in.

Two hours passed in this way before Cheng Shubai left Li Mansion.

Su Xiaoxi knew that Li Shangshu was an upright official, and this plague must have had a big impact on him.

The matter of going to negotiate with Li Shangshu this time was left to Cheng Shubai.

Although Cheng Shubai is sometimes unreliable, he is still stable at critical moments.

Cheng Shubai took Su Xiaoxi around the capital for a long time and finally arrived outside the palace.

"Husband, do you think Mr. Li will refuse?" Su Xiaoxi asked Cheng Shubai nervously.

Cheng Shubai heard this, thought about it carefully, and replied: "Master Li is an upright official, and he will definitely not sit idly by."

"That's good." Hearing what Cheng Shubai said, Su Xiaoxi's heart dropped.

Immediately, the two got off the carriage, and Cheng Shubai led Su Xiaoxi towards the palace.

When the guards saw Cheng Shubai and Su Xiaoxi coming, they immediately informed the people inside.

"Ms. sir, I'm a little scared..." Standing outside the palace, Su Xiaoxi pulled Cheng Shubai's clothes and spoke nervously.

Cheng Shubai patted Su Xiaoxi on the head, "Don't be afraid, I'm here to protect you."

With that said, Cheng Shubai once again held Su Xiaoxi's hand and walked inside.

This is Su Xiaoxi's first visit to the palace. It was Li Shangshu's recommendation that allowed Su Xiaoxi and Cheng Shubai to come to the palace.

Now looking at the majestic palace, Su Xiaoxi felt nothing but shock in her heart.

She never thought that one day she would be able to live in the palace. Such treatment was something that ordinary people could not achieve in their lifetimes!

The two walked for a long time before finally arriving at their destination. From a distance, Su Xiaoxi saw Master Li waiting there.

"My minister sees the emperor."

Seeing His Majesty the Emperor, Lord Li bowed respectfully and then stood in front of His Majesty the Emperor.

Su Xiaoxi, on the other hand, stood behind Mr. Li in a disciplined manner, not daring to look around wildly for fear of offending Long Yan.

"I love you so much that I will grant you a seat." The emperor spoke in a soft tone.

Upon hearing this, Mr. Li turned to look at Su Xiaoxi and Cheng Shubai, motioning for them to take their seats.

"The common people thank the Lord for his kindness." Cheng Shubai cupped his hands to express his gratitude.

Su Xiaoxi also thanked her.

"Don't be formal. I invite you two here today because I want to discuss the plague with you." His Majesty the Emperor got straight to the point.

"I will do my best to heal the people." Mr. Li's sonorous and powerful voice sounded in the huge side hall.

"Lord Li, you might as well tell me in detail." The emperor said after hearing this.

"Yes." As he said that, Mr. Li began to talk about the detailed experience of the people getting sick, including the fact that some people were now unconscious, the symptoms of the plague, and the severity of the condition now.

After listening, Su Xiaoxi fell into deep thought. It seemed that if she didn't take action, those patients might not be able to survive the three-month period.

This is the ending Su Xiaoxi doesn't want to see.

Moreover, if he does not save others, Mr. Li will definitely be implicated when the time comes.

Su Xiaoxi's entanglement was completely noticed by Mr. Li, but he did not make a sound to remind him and just stood quietly next to the emperor.

The emperor looked indifferent, as if what Mr. Li reported had nothing to do with him.

After a long time, the emperor suddenly said, "Miss Su, what do you think?"

His Majesty the Emperor's eyes fell on Su Xiaoxi.

His Majesty the Emperor's words instantly woke Su Xiaoxi up from her thoughts.

Looking at His Majesty the Emperor, Su Xiaoxi replied softly: "A common woman is just a woman who can only help some simple illnesses."

Su Xiaoxi told the truth.

"In that case, please ask the girl to work with Li Shangshu to develop the antidote!" His Majesty the Emperor said calmly.

Hearing this, Mr. Li glanced at His Majesty the Emperor in surprise.

What kind of medicine is sold in this gourd by His Majesty the Emperor?Aren't you afraid that they will kill so many people?

But then I thought again, if His Majesty the Emperor really wanted to stop them, he would not let them enter the palace.

Thinking of this, Mr. Li's original worries suddenly disappeared.

"Thank you, Your Majesty Ron!"

Su Xiaoxi did not expect that His Majesty the Emperor would agree.

For a moment, I felt mixed feelings in my heart.

His Majesty the Emperor smiled gently, "I also want to see with my own eyes how superb the girl's medical skills are."

"The civilian daughter must do her best to live up to His Majesty's expectations." Su Xiaoxi lowered her head and spoke in a pious tone.

"Yes." Nodding, His Majesty the Emperor's eyes became sharper and he continued: "However, if you can't solve the plague, I will make you and Li Shangshu pay with their lives."

Hearing this, Mr. Li suddenly knelt on the ground, "I obey your order!"

"Okay!" The emperor curled his lips in satisfaction.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Li, Cao Min and Xiao Xi have something important to report."

Just when Su Xiaoxi was about to tell her why she came, Cheng Shubai spoke.

The emperor's eyes were deep and he stared at Cheng Shubai for a moment before he slowly said, "Speak."

"The common people have ways to cure patients infected with the plague." Cheng Shubai affirmed.

"Oh? What good plan do you have?" His Majesty the Emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at Cheng Shubai with interest.

"This..." After hesitation, Cheng Shubai turned his attention to Su Xiaoxi.

Su Xiaoxi also raised her head at this time to meet His Majesty the Emperor's gaze.

"Your Majesty, civilian girls also have their own ideas." Su Xiaoxi said firmly.

"Oh? Tell me." The emperor's attitude seemed quite patient.

"Folk girls can use acupuncture to drive away the plague!" Su Xiaoxi said it frankly without any hesitation.

The emperor was slightly stunned, obviously doubting Su Xiaoxi's words.

Su Xiaoxi still persisted.

"This is the only cure for the plague."

Su Xiaoxi is convinced that the level of medicine in this world is underdeveloped, so if she can take the opportunity to promote it, she may be able to save more people.

At least, Su Xiaoxi hoped to reduce casualties.

"This is impossible!" As soon as Su Xiaoxi finished speaking, Cheng Shubai refuted Su Xiaoxi's words.

"The grassroots people once tried acupuncture, but unfortunately it didn't work. The patients even died several times because of acupuncture. Now, there is only this way."

Hearing what Cheng Shubai said, Su Xiaoxi frowned.
