The sky is blue and the clouds are light, and the wind is warm and the sun is smoky. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

On the flower stand outside Zimo's window, this year's newly planted wisteria, moistened by the unhurried rain, grows lush with green branches and leaves, and the flowers are delicate. Next to the trellis, several different trees planted last year are also growing lush in the harmonious wind and rain, and the fat green leaves are lazily enjoying the warm air on the stretched branches.

Yu Zimo wore a plain purple gauze dress, sat on the recliner in front of the window, and quietly looked at the bright scenery outside the window, with clear eyes.

The summer breeze from afar, through the leaves of the trees, the vines on the flower stands, and the strings of wisteria flowers, blew into Yu Zimo's window, and through Yu Zimo's soft hair, leaving a faint floral fragrance on her hair.

Yu Zimo's fair-skinned and slender wrists were wrapped around two delicate purple-gold bracelets. The bracelet is made by skilled craftsmen in Ukraine for many years, a total of two. In late spring, the state of Ukraine dedicated one of them to the state of Xin, and the other to the state of Shang. When King Xin saw the bracelet, he knew that his daughter must like it, so he specially sent someone to send it to Yu Zimo. King Shang also felt that this slender and delicate purple gold bracelet Yu Zimo would like it, so he packed it in a jade box and sent it to Dongjun with a powerful person.

Although the two bracelets are independent, they complement each other when worn together. Yu Zimo really likes it. On weekdays, she just brings one of them. Today, in order to match the new dress sent by his eldest brother, he took both of them with him. The purple gold silk wrapped around her fair and slender wrist, like a white jade, delicate and beautiful.

……

The shadow of the sun shifts and the shadow of the sun is high, and the shadow of the tree is deep. All morning, Yu Zimo had been sitting there, almost motionless, she was enjoying a rare moment of purity.

After they returned from the palace, the land within the confines of the eastern county had been in good weather, and the crops they planted broke through the soil and grew well. The people of Dongjun all believed that all this was the good fortune brought by their Prince Qingran and Princess Xinguo, and they were grateful to Qingran and Yu Zimo. The officials of Dongjun also changed their previous yang and yin violations, and were respectful to Qingran and obeyed their words.

Qingran has accepted and adapted to his new identity, but he still has a lot to learn. In the past few days, Qingran has been busy with the big and small affairs of Dongjun, and he can't be by Zimo's side. Changming wants to help Qingran, and he is also running around all day long, and he is busy.

……

It was almost noon, Yu Zimo said that she didn't want to eat, and Qingyao was afraid that the princess would be hungry, so she made the princess's favorite pastry in the kitchen. She brought pastries to the princess, and as she walked along the path in the shade of the trees, she saw Lu Ye standing behind a pillar, secretly and intently looking at the silhouette of the princess in the window.

The affairs in the county are complicated, and Lu has been busy with Qingran for more than a month. Qingran knew that he was working hard, so let him rest for a day. How could he stand there? Listening to Chang Ming, Lu always liked to hang out with the ladies of the wealthy, official eunuchs, and the amorous women in the market. She had also seen Lu Ye whisper to the beautiful maids in the palace a few times. However, he seems to have changed his sex recently, and has been following Prince Qingran, rarely going in and out of various places with warm nephrite, and he has not deliberately looked for opportunities to get close to the princess.

Qing Yao and Chang Ming saw it more than once, and Lu Ye deliberately passed by the place where he could see the princess after he was busy, and then returned to his residence.

Don't?......

Qing Yao sighed softly, pretended not to see Lu Ye, took the snack, and continued to walk forward. When she turned the path, she saw Changming coming back from outside with Prince Qingran, walking in a hurry. At this time, they came back together, something must have happened.

Lu also saw that Qingran and they were back. He adjusted his mood behind the pillar and walked out from behind the pillar with a bright smile to greet Qingran and Changming.

Qing Ran's face is not very good-looking. So is Changming. They saw that Qing Yao and Lu were also outside the door, and asked them to enter the house together.

When he entered the house and saw Yu Zimo, the first thing Qingran said was, "Zimo, something happened." ”

Yu Zimo was quietly looking at the wisteria flowers outside the window, and when he heard the sound of Qingran and a few of them coming in, his expression moved slightly. When Qingran said that something had happened, she furrowed her brows and frowned, but soon stretched them again.

"What's going on?" she asked, turning back from the window.

Qingran was about to speak again, but was stunned by the beauty of Yu Zimo, who was wearing a purple skirt and was as quiet as snow, and was stunned, and it took a while to come to her senses, and she said in a daze, "Oh, Zimo,...... Something went wrong...... It's a plague of locusts......"

Yu Zimo's brows furrowed again.

Qingran continued: "The people who were sent out to do business came back to report that there is a locust plague in almost all places in the Shang Kingdom, except for our East County. ”

"The grain in the field has just grown, and the snow in winter and the rain in spring are abundant enough, how can there be a plague of locusts?" Yu Zimo said.

"I didn't believe it when people started to report it, but I went to see it myself, and it was indeed a plague of locusts. The locusts gathered together, like a black whirlwind and a huge wave, and wherever they passed, the wheat and corn in the field were devoured. The land has also dried up. I heard that including Shangdu, after the Spring Festival, there was not a single cloud floating in the sky, and not a single snowflake or drop of rain fell on the ground. Rivers that could be used for irrigation also dried up. ”

When the locusts plague is gone, there will be no harvest of food, and they will starve all over the wilderness. The people of Shang were screaming and wailing.

"Zi Mo, what should I do?" Qing Ran was really anxious.

"Other counties have been affected, and our East County is fine, what are you doing so anxiously?" Lu also said nonchalantly.

"They are all the people of the Shang Kingdom. Qingran said with a straight face, how can they only care about themselves.

"Although Dongjun is fine now, locusts don't have eyes. Even if the locusts don't come, refugees will come back to the troubled area, and Dongjun will fall into chaos. Changming reminded Lu Ye.

Of course, Lu also understands the stakes. It's just that......

"Princess, I have been to check, except for the eastern county, there is a locust plague in all counties, and it is very bad. It was so horrible that people didn't dare to approach it. It's just that I think this locust plague came a little suddenly, and there was no warning before, and it was a little strange. Chang Ming stiffened his face and said to Zi Mo.

Yu Zimo didn't speak, looked at Changming, and motioned for him to say what he wanted to say.

Chang Ming had no scruples, and continued: "When there was an accident in the Jiehe River before, I left Dongjun and found that except for Dongjun, it was raining and snowing in other places in the Shang Kingdom. Now it's snowing and raining in East County, but it's dry elsewhere. Isn't that weird?"

"You mean, the problem this time is still in the Boundary River?" Qing Yao understood Changming's words, "But, isn't the matter of the Boundary River solved." The spirits are dead, and the spell water they poured into the leylines is invalid. "Unless someone casts a spell on the leylines again. However, the princess has a purse containing the earth spirit in her hand, and if there is a problem with the land again, the earth spirit will remind the princess.

"Could it be that Xiao Changyu is unwilling, looking for someone again, and repeating his old skills?"

"Almost the entire territory of Shang Kingdom was affected this time, and he would not be stupid enough to risk the lives of his own people. ”

"Controlling the boundary river through the leylines is to drain the spiritual power in the land. It's a drought now, it's not raining, it's still different. Lu also analyzed.

Things seem to have turned around, and everything else was safe except for Dongjun. And now, the wind and rain in Dongjun are smooth, and the locust plague outside Dongjun is full of sky.

The spirit possessed them and he dealt with them. If the matter is still related to the leylines and the boundary river, then it would be unwise for him to dispose of the three Lingzhan people.

"Whether it is the same or different, natural or man-made, it is the people who suffer. The grain was eaten by locusts, so what did the people eat. Qing Ran was in a hurry to find Yu Zimo, because he was really in a hurry. It was Dongjun before, and now it is the entire Shang Kingdom. If this is really something that someone did on purpose. Then this person is really a great crime, and man and God can punish him. How can anyone disregard the lives of many thousands of people for their own selfish desires?

Zi Mo will definitely have a way...... Qingran thought so.

Yu Zimo didn't speak. After Qingran Lu and they finished what they wanted to say, the eyes of the four of them focused on Zi Mo, and when they asked Yu Zimo what to do, Yu Zimo took back the purple gold bracelet on his wrist and received it in the box, then raised his head and said, "I don't know." ”

The four of them were stunned, and they were also a little confused. Yu Zimo also had things that he didn't know, which was almost impossible for them. Qing Yao has followed the princess for so many years, and it is the first time she has heard the princess say "I don't know".

"Why are you looking at me with such strange eyes?" Yu Zimo smiled indifferently, "I said I don't know it's strange?"

"No, I just didn't expect it. After being stunned for a while, Lu also said.

"There are things that immortals don't know, not to mention that I'm not an immortal yet. Yu Zimo said leisurely.

"Then this plague of locusts—" Qing Ran was a little at a loss.

"If it's a natural disaster, I can't help it. Yu Zimo said.

"What if it's a man-made disaster?"

"Everything I know is from the book, and the present situation is not recorded in the book. ”

"Is there no way around it?"

"Of course not. The fact that there is no record in the book does not mean that things will not happen, and if things happen, there must be a way to solve them. But the question now is, we don't even know how it happened, how do we solve it?"

"What do you mean?"

"Let's figure out what's going on first. ”

"How?"

Yu Zimo thought for a while and said to Qing Ran, "You go and find out, except for the Shang Kingdom, there are no locust plagues in the other six countries." ”

"Princess, are you worried about our Xin Kingdom?" This locust plague is unusual, since it can sweep the Shang Kingdom, then several countries adjacent to the Shang Kingdom, including the Xin Kingdom, may suffer the same disaster. Changming said.

Yu Zimo shook his head, "We have a lot of mountains in Xinguo and little land, so it is unlikely that we will be affected by the locust plague. She wasn't worried, "It's the Senguo, the Void and the Wufang, the terrain of their three kingdoms is very similar to the Shang country, you let people figure out the situation in their country." ”

"Wu Fang guards the pure mountain, and is blessed by the pure mountain, so there should be no locust plague. Qing Yao said.

"That's not necessarily, even Jingshan has times when he has time to take care of himself. Yu Zimo said, "Changming, you go back to Shangdu and go to the young man behind the Stone Temple." ”

"Looking for him?"

"He is a stone spirit, and the drought has little effect on him. You ask him to figure out where the forces that caused this drought are coming from. ”

"Yes. ”

"Qing Yao, you go to the tree spirit and ask her what changes have occurred in the spiritual power in Dongjun during this time. ”

"Good. ”

Last year, Lingzhan cast a spell on the boundary river, causing the spiritual power in many mountains in Dongjun to lose, and the tree spirits in the mountains disappeared because of their spiritual power, relying on the power of Zi Mo's portable jade pendant Bailuan, they could barely maintain a fleeting shadow. Since Yu Zimo planted a peach tree with great protective power in the East County, the spiritual power of the trees in the East County has greatly increased, and the tree spirit has received sufficient spiritual power, not only can it transform into a specific human form, but also has stronger power. The tree spirit was very grateful to Zi Mo.

"What about me?" Lu also asked Yu Zimo.

"Go and investigate the damage in the counties of the Shang Kingdom. ”

"Wrap it around me. ”

"And. Yu Zimo said to Lu Ye and Qingran, "You mobilize all the soldiers in Dongjun and hurry up to train." ”

"The princess is afraid that the disaster victims will pour into Dongjun and rob us of our food. Lu also said with a smile.

"If it's just a disaster victim, it's still a small thing. Yu Zimo said faintly.

The smile on Lu Ye's face was gone, and he smelled the smell of the storm before the storm was approaching in Zi Mo's words.

Unusual events indicate that things are moving in an unpredictable direction.

"Alright, you all go and prepare, and let me think about it quietly by myself. Yu Zimo said.

Qing Ran gave Lu Ye a look at them, took them away, and left Zi Mo alone in the house. Suddenly there was something she didn't understand and couldn't control, Yu Zimo should be very anxious, she didn't know anything about something for the first time, and she was not sure.

……

After they went out, Yu Zimo got up from the recliner, walked to the bed, and took out a silk book from under the brocade quilt at the head of the bed. She gently unfolded the silk book, which had no words on it, only a bronze dain.

"Shouldn't you tell me something?" she said, turning to the bronze on the silk book.

Yu Zimo's voice fell on the bronze Yue in the silk book, and the coiled pattern on the bronze Yue in the silk book flickered, and it returned to its original state.

"Forget it. Yu Zimo's eyes were cold, "Even you can't tell, this person is really not simple." However, he still overlooked the fact that the power he used, although powerful, was incomplete. And the power doesn't really belong to him. Borrowing from someone else always has to be repaid, and the more you borrow, the more you have to repay...... I'm ...... too."
