After Li Shimin left Li Yuan's palace with Empress Changsun, he went directly to the imperial study.

Although there is no need to hold a grand court meeting today, Li Shimin still has to deal with the recitals sent from various places, and he must not stop for a day.

After Li Shimin sat down, he got busy and began to review one book after another.

After dealing with it for half an hour, Li Shimin temporarily put down the pile of recitals and began to massage his head.

Empress Changsun is a freshly brewed tea sent by Li Shimin, of course, this "tea" is not brewed with tea leaves, it is more like a soup made from leaves.

Li Shimin took a sip of tea, closed his eyes and felt the bitterness of the tea for a while, and once again recalled Li Yuan's yin and yang weird sentences and Li Yan's resignation, and suddenly became even more annoyed.

"Your Majesty, is there anything troublesome about you?"

Empress Eldest Sun asked softly.

"Eh......"

Hearing the words of Empress Changsun, Li Shimin let out a long sigh.

"I do have something to worry about......"

Li Shimin knows the character of Empress Changsun very well, she will not talk about politics without authorization, but if she has something to worry about, as long as she confides in her, she will definitely get a lot of relief.

Because of this, Li Shimin began to confide in himself.

Of course, Li Shimin concealed Li Yan's identity, and he only said about the resignation of the Marquis of Dingbei.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to be so bored, isn't this Dingbei Marquis settled in Chang'an, Your Majesty will naturally have the opportunity to invite him into the court in the future."

"What's more, Your Majesty also said that Dingbei Hou personally promised that if there is a war, he will be called back, presumably Beihou is also willing to serve the Tang Dynasty."

Empress Changsun began to comfort Li Shimin, and personally massaged Li Shimin's temples to relieve Li Shimin's fatigue.

"Guanyin, you're right, but I've thought a little too much."

After the persuasion of Empress Changsun, Li Shimin's mood really improved.

However, if the fundamental problem of the matter is not resolved, the irritability in Li Shimin's heart cannot be completely cured.

You must know that Li Yan's true identity is his eldest son Li Shimin!

With such a special situation, Li Shimin was reluctant to tell Empress Changsun for the time being.

In this way, Li Shimin continued to process the book while enjoying the massage of the eldest grandson.

However, less than five minutes later, Li Shimin's mood became impatient again.

"It's not good, there is a big drought in Kannai Road, and spring plowing can't be carried out!"

Li Shimin's mood suddenly fell to the bottom.

What kind of sin has he created, he has only been the emperor for more than a year, and there are droughts every year!

Last year's drought in Guanzhong emptied the Datang treasury, and if there is another drought this year, what will Datang do?

Li Shimin's head is bigger.

"Wang De, immediately let the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui ...... See me in the palace! ”

Li Shimin did not dare to delay, and immediately called his own think tank group to discuss the plan for disaster relief.

When Empress Changsun saw that Li Shimin was about to start discussing politics, she immediately took the initiative to leave before the minister entered the palace, without any idea of listening to the government.

Less than half an hour later, the ministers from all walks of life rushed into the palace to face the saint and began to discuss the matter of the great drought in the Kannai Road.

The ministers discussed for a long time in the imperial study, but they could not come up with a solution.

There is no other reason, the court really has no money for disaster relief, even if the ministers present have the talent of the world, it is still difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.

"After the secretary goes back, he must think carefully, and tomorrow the court will meet, and a solution must be given."

The time is about to come to the time of the curfew in Chang'an, and Li Shimin has no choice but to let everyone leave for the time being, and wait until tomorrow morning to discuss it.

On the way to the palace gate, the eldest grandson Wuji and the others continued to discuss while walking.

"Lord Eldest Sun, what do you think?"

"Disaster relief should be the head of the household department, Lord Liu, what do you think?"

"The treasury is empty, and the household department can't transfer copper coins."

"How about scattering the displaced people and merging them into the various provinces?"

"Absolutely not, the displaced people must be under centralized jurisdiction, otherwise once there is a riot, it will definitely disrupt our dynasty."

"We can only be ready to send troops to suppress the displaced people at any time, and think of other ways when we are in disaster relief."

A group of courtiers discussed for a long time but did not come up with any solution.

In the end, some people actually proposed to send troops to suppress it, regardless of whether the people could survive the natural disaster.

You know, it's just the beginning of the great drought, and the people haven't reached the time to become homeless.

The drought is still at least one to two months away from becoming a real disaster.

"Eh, let's talk about it tomorrow morning."

In the end, after the discussion was fruitless, the hundred officials could only leave separately and return to their own mansions to rest.

At this moment, no one knew that a team of men and horses from Fengzhou was on their way to Chang'an with a letter from Wang Yu and a strange crop.

This strange crop from Toyosu is about to become the key to solving the disaster.

……

The next day, Li Shimin came to the DPRK and China early, and the ministers of the civil and military sides also stood up early.

The atmosphere of today's court meeting was obviously quite solemn, and everyone knew the news of the great drought in Kannai Province.

"Everyone, let's talk about it, is there any way to solve the trouble of the inner way."

"If anyone can give a solution, I will be rewarded!"

Li Shimin himself couldn't think of any good way anyway, so he could only pin his hopes on the hundreds of officials in the court.

It's a pity that Li Shimin obviously overestimated this group of people.

In the end, the plan given was only to send troops to suppress it, and it could not give any substantive solution at all.

At the same time, when the generals heard this extremely simple and crude plan, they were immediately unhappy.

This sent troops to suppress it to the end, and it was obviously the decision-maker Li Shimin and their group of executors who were infamous for their infamy.

After the infamy, this group of Wenchen who proposed the plan can still enjoy the prestige of the people and will not lose anything.

As a result, two factions were formed in the DPRK and China.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui and other far-thinking people stood on the same front as Cheng Yanjin and other military generals, and resolutely did not agree to use the army to forcibly suppress them.

On the other hand, led by Liu Zhenghui, the head of the household department, always emphasized that the Tang treasury is empty now, and there is no money to carry out disaster relief.

In the end, the more Li Shimin listened, the more headache he felt, until the old eunuch Wang De suddenly came to Li Shimin's side and handed over a letter to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin ignored the dispute between the court and China for the time being, and opened the urgent letter sent by Wang Yu.

"Fengzhou Thorn King Yu ......"

"The people of Wujia Village found a strange thing, planted it in the field, and it was edible when it was ripe......"

"Its shape is oval, the surface has skin, the inside is edible, and the yield per mu is thousands of catties......"

"The people of Wujia Village said that this thing was discovered by Li Yan and handed over to Wujia Village ......"

Looking at this letter, Li Shimin's eyes suddenly widened, and an emotion called ecstasy surged into his heart, and his head was dizzy with joy in his heart.
