Even in later generations, when locust plagues broke out in some foreign countries, they did not have many good ways to stop the locust plagues.

However, there are still some ways to prevent and control it if you have prepared in advance.

At the very least, the locust plague can be controlled in Guanzhong, and it will not affect the entire Datang.

As long as the locust plague can be controlled in Guanzhong, it will be a big victory.

Now, in the imperial treasury, there is still a lot of money left over from the donations of various families for disaster relief last year.

If it is just to relieve the locust plague in Guanzhong, it is actually completely sufficient.

In this way, the damage of locust plague can be reduced to a minimum.

At this time, Li Su was pondering whether to tell Li Shimin about this matter.

If the imperial court comes forward and takes precautions as soon as possible, when the time comes, the impact may be reduced to a lower level.

In the end, Li Su decided to give it a try.

In fact, Li Su didn't have much hope for this matter.

In fact, Li was so stunned that he was not afraid that Li Shimin would not believe him.

Recently, Li Shimin still trusts him very much.

And who will hinder him will be the ministers of the court.

The officials of the Five Surnames and Seven Hopes faction, plus the officials of the Eldest Sun Wuji faction, all wanted to put him to death.

Together, the officials of these two major factions are more than two-thirds of the top of the court.

Except for some generals who are not in their camp, the others are basically officials from these two sides.

And Li Su estimated that they would not ask what was going on at all, but would only oppose it for the sake of opposition.

But although he knew that the feasibility was not high, Li Yu still decided to give it a try.

After all, if it were feasible, it would be possible to further reduce the number of people affected.

So Li Su came to the palace and reported the matter to Li Shimin.

After hearing Li Su's report, Li Shimin attached great importance to it.

On the morning of the second day, Li Shimin threw out this question.

"Ladies and gentlemen, there is a popular saying among the people: After the great drought, there will be a plague of locusts."

"Recently, someone reported to me that a large number of locust larvae had been found in the mountains and fields."

"This means that there is a high probability of a locust outbreak this year."

"I don't know what your Aiqing opinions?"

After hearing Li Shimin's words, the eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, I don't know who reported to Your Majesty?" ”

Li Shimin coughed and said, "It was the King of Shu who reported to me, but I also feel that what the King of Shu said is very reasonable." ”

After Li Shimin finished speaking, an official immediately stood up and said: "Your Majesty, but how could such a natural disaster be predicted before it happened? ”

"That's right, Your Majesty, this is just the guess of the King of Shu! If we had made preparations, but the locust plague had not occurred, would we not have wasted our lives and money? ”

"Yes, Your Majesty! Moreover, if we prepare in advance now, once the news leaks out, it will inevitably lead to chaos in the hearts of the people, and it is possible to cause turmoil, Your Majesty! ”

After the ministers learned that the news was played by the King of Shu, many officials in the court immediately stood up to express their opposition.

Seeing this scene, Li Shimin's face was not very good-looking.

The family is really a cancer in the Tang Empire.

In order to suppress dissidents, they oppose purely for the sake of opposition, which really chills him.

Li Shimin couldn't help but look at the eldest grandson Wuji, and then asked: "Auxiliary machine, I don't know what you think about this matter?" ”

In the last incident of Duobao Pagoda, the eldest grandson Wuji had secretly attacked.

Li Shimin knows.

In this matter, Li Shimin was quite dissatisfied with the eldest grandson Wuji.

However, considering that the eldest grandson Wuji is the uncle of the crown prince, Li Tai and Li Zhi, Li Shimin Dao did not think that the eldest grandson Wuji was too much.

If people do not do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed.

As a courtier, the eldest grandson Wuji is first and foremost a person, and it is not unforgivable that he did something a little out of line for the sake of his own future and future.

However, in this matter, Li Shimin wants to see how the eldest grandson Wuji will choose?

After being questioned by the emperor, the eldest grandson Wuji said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty, the old minister feels that this matter must be taken seriously. ”

Oh?

Hearing the eldest grandson Wuji's answer, Li Shimin and the officials of the five surnamed Qiwang factions couldn't help but be stunned.

Hey?

Didn't you say that last time?

Didn't you still exclude the King of Shu last time?

Why did you say good things to the King of Shu this time?

Is the change of position so fast?

Li Shimin couldn't help asking: "Auxiliary machine, you talk about it carefully." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but say: "After the great drought, there will be a locust plague, and a large number of locust eggs can be seen in the fields. ”

"This shows that there is a great possibility that there will be a locust plague."

"And once the locust plague breaks out, it will be a catastrophe for the people!"

"This kind of thing, I would rather believe it than believe it, you must pay attention to it, your majesty!"

"The country is people-oriented, and the people are food-oriented. This is a major event that shakes the foundation of the country, how can we not pay attention to it? ”

Hearing the words of the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Shimin's heart was extremely happy.

I couldn't help but say, "That's good! This is what Lao Cheng said about the country! ”

"Auxiliary, in your opinion, how should this matter be handled?"

The eldest grandson Wuji couldn't help but say: "The old minister thinks that the king of Shu has a good saying. ”

"I, Datang, should be not in harmony, not married, the monarch dies, and the prince guards the country!"

"His Royal Highness the King of Shu, both civil and military, witty and resourceful, last time, he used scientific methods to perfectly solve the matter of Duobao Pagoda."

"In that case, why don't you leave this matter to the King of Shu to deal with?"

"However, if there is only the King of Shu, I'm afraid I won't be busy."

"Therefore, the minister suggested that the king of Shu be in charge of Guanzhong and Shannan Province, and let Li Tai, the king of Yue, be in charge of Hedong Province and Henan Province."

"Let the two princes guard the door for the locusts to break through. Let the people of the Tang Dynasty in other places avoid the suffering of locust plagues. ”

The words of the eldest grandson Wuji caused a sensation in the entire court.

Let the prince personally take charge of the affairs is unprecedented in Datang.

Well, well, in fact, the Tang Dynasty has just been founded for many years, and there is no such precedent before.

However, in previous dynasties, there was generally no such precedent.

Eldest grandson Wuji, this is going to set a precedent!

However, because the King of Shu once said:

If you don't get along, you don't get married, the king dies, and the prince guards the country.

And last time, Li Su, as a prince, really guarded the country once, and he also succeeded, or overfulfilled the task.

This also provides a theoretical basis for letting the prince take charge this time.

The prince guards the country!

This locust plague can also be seen as a war.

Resist the locust plague within a controllable range, so that other parts of Datang will be protected from locust plagues.

If I like Datang, I am really the prince of the Tang Dynasty, please collect it: () I am the prince of the Tang Dynasty is the fastest update.
