"Your Majesty, yesterday the locusts arrived in Wannian County, and all the crops in Wannian County were eaten by the locusts in one day. The farmers really didn't have a harvest this year...... I can't even get the seeds back......"

Prime Minister Fang Xuanling was the first to go out of class in the early dynasty.

Although he also wanted to sing praises, and every emperor loved to hear them, now was not the time to sing praises.

"Your Majesty, according to the speed of the locusts, it will arrive in Chang'an today, how can Your Majesty be good, the folk rumors are becoming more and more unfavorable to Your Majesty's prestige, Your Majesty has to make a decision as soon as possible, now Xia Zhao is still in a hurry, and I am afraid that the people's hearts will be even more unstable if it is late?"

Imperial Doctor Wei Zheng came out of the class and opened his mouth loudly.

"Wei Aiqing, you shut up... Are you going to force me to do it? ”

When His Majesty Li Er heard this, Long Yan was furious and scolded sharply.

Of course, he knew what Wei Zheng was referring to, this matter had already made him anxious, but at this time, the damned locusts attacked.

When Prime Minister Fang Xuanling was the first to play, and all the crops in Wannian County were eaten by locusts in one day yesterday, His Majesty Li Er's mood was extremely painful and heavy.

For he knew that after tomorrow there would be more and more reports from farther away, and that droughts and floods would not subside, and that locust plagues would arise again.

Could it really be that God's punishment for him was not successful?

Sometimes His Majesty Li Er himself began to wonder if these rumors were true?

However, his own suspicions were suspicious, and he would never allow his courtiers to put this matter on the table.

This is a provocation to his imperial power, a provocation to his majesty······

With such a matter of fame and majesty, how could His Majesty Li Er easily retreat and give in.

"All of you Aiqing are my ministers of the Tang Dynasty, and there have been so many disasters in my Tang Dynasty recently, I hope that all of you Aiqing and I will work together to tide over the difficulties······ I don't know what good solution you have for this locust plague? ”

His Majesty Li Er looked majestically at the ministers above the court for a while, and then slowly spoke.

The ministers all lowered their heads involuntarily, and there has never been a good treatment plan for the locust plague since the history of the plague.

It's easier said than done now to get them to come up with a governance plan.

It stands to reason that manual capture is the most direct and effective method at present.

But what is even worse is that many people worship locusts as locust gods, let alone catch them, they also have to set up locust temples and worship them.

It has to be said that it is an ignorant and blind god-making movement.

His Majesty Li Er looked at the dejected ministers one by one, and he was really haggard......

"Hubu Shangshu, Hubu Shilang, I order your Hubu to immediately arrange personnel, be sure to urge the people of Chang'an City to catch locusts with their own hands, and Du Shangshu's military department will dispatch some soldiers to assist the people in eliminating locusts. I don't want to hear any more locust plagues in ten days......"

His Majesty Li Er patted the dragon case, turned around and brushed his sleeves away, leaving behind a stunned civil and military official.

"Minister, obey the order."

"Minister, obey the order."

After His Majesty Li Er left the Xiande Palace, Du Ruhui, the secretary of the household department and the secretary of the military department, reacted.

"Guanyin, it's really angry and ......"

In the Lizheng Palace, after His Majesty Li Er stepped into the Lizheng Palace, he was still angry.

"What made Jiro lose his temper so much?"

Empress Eldest Sun asked suspiciously.

"It's not that the last drought and flood have not been eliminated, and there has been another locust plague, this morning to Prime Minister Fang Xuanling, yesterday in Wannian County in one day, all the crops were eaten clean by locusts...... My heart is in pain! Heaven, if you want to punish, come and punish me, why punish my people? ”

His Majesty Li Er said in a deep voice to Empress Changsun in grief, his voice was full of helplessness and helplessness, as well as deep self-blame......

"Jiro... Jiro... Don't be sad, there will always be a way..."

Seeing His Majesty Li Er's sad appearance, Empress Changsun couldn't help but reddened her eyes in an instant, took two steps forward, held His Majesty Li Er's hand, and said softly and comfortingly.

Whenever His Majesty Li Er is at a loss and helpless, Empress Changsun will always stand side by side with His Majesty Li Er without hesitation, this weak woman actually has a strong enough heart.

"I have already arranged for the household department and the military department to go to the countryside to assist the people in catching locusts, what other good way is there now? Guanyin is not unaware that the people in some places not only do not catch locusts, but even worship them as locust gods, which is simply extremely ignorant and ridiculous. ”

His Majesty Li Er held the hand of Empress Changsun with his backhand and continued. "This Zhu Chao is also unlucky, he has just been transferred to the post of Wannian County Commander, and such a big disaster has occurred in Wannian, I don't know how many victims will pour into Chang'an this year......"

"Father, mother...... Father, when did a locust plague occur in Wannian County? ”

An elf-like girl rushed into the palace like the wind.

It's just because she heard His Majesty Li Er's sentence that Wannian County has suffered a serious locust plague.

The elf-like girl is naturally our Changle princess Li Lizhi.

He was concerned about Lin Ran's safety in Linjia Village, and couldn't help but trot all the way in a hurry.

"Father, tell Changle quickly, Changle is dying."

Princess Changle threw herself into the arms of His Majesty Li Er, and said coquettishly, with concern and nervousness in her words?

"Changle also began to care about the world's major events, the locusts in Wannian County started yesterday, and this morning the Prime Minister Fang Xuanling said, all the crops in Wannian County were eaten by locusts in one day, which can be described as a heavy loss... My father is also very heartbroken! ”

His Majesty Li Er replied truthfully.

Princess Changle's face immediately became heavy when she heard this, the young man in the Lin family village is okay now? Are they also attacked by locusts? Are all the crops eaten clean by the locusts?

These questions flickered back and forth in her mind, but there was no answer to them......

"Father, Changle wants to go to Wannian County to see..."

After thinking about it for a long time, Princess Changle finally mustered up the courage to speak.

If she can't see the current situation of Linjia Village with her own eyes, Princess Changle may never be able to calm down, and she will always be in a tangled worry, and she will not be able to let go for a long time......

Hearing this, His Majesty Li Er patted Princess Changle on the shoulder and said softly.

"Go ahead, tell Lin Xiaogongzi, no matter what, I won't let him go hungry, he has merit to the court, I can't treat him badly, and I also believe that he can't go hungry, each of these shops is making money every day, and the entire Chang'an City has put aside the family, I'm afraid there will be no second person as rich as him now."
