Li Jun attaches great importance to Ji Meng's opinion, and specially transferred a team from Jinyi Wei and sent it to Kunlun Pass to screen it well, anyway, he is not in a hurry to fight now, the movements of Southern Chu are unknown, Li Jun In order to ensure that Southern Chu does not participate in this war, he has arranged for Lin Dahong and Zhang Hang to control the army of Southern Chu, I heard that the Emperor of Southern Chu is recently taking summer vacation in Huizhou near Meizhou, Li Jun thought that it was best to surround the Emperor of Southern Chu in Huizhou, so that the entire Southern Chu army would not be in turmoil, unless they didn't want their emperor.

All in all, the war in the south went very smoothly, and the time unconsciously entered May, which is the time when disasters are most likely to occur in various places, so Li Jun deliberately went to the ancestral temple to worship the sky again, asking God to bless the Tang Dynasty with good weather and rain.

Perhaps because Li Jun stole chicken legs during the sacrifice, God thought that Li Jun's intentions were insincere, and in mid-May, Li Jun received an urgent report that there was a locust plague in Huainan County, and a total of five counties were affected.

To Li Jun's surprise, the cabinet only discussed how to control the locust plague within the five counties of Huainan.

Li Jun coughed and asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, could it be that you have already predicted the Huainan locust plague in advance?" ”

Yuan Zhan explained with a smile: "Your Majesty, at the beginning of the year, three Nonwexers in Huainan County had already written that there was less snow this year, and there were many locust eggs on the ground, so the Ministry of Agriculture had sent people to send a lot of chickens, ducks and geese in time. ”

Li Jun said embarrassedly: "It seems that I am a little negligent, and I didn't see this song." ”

"Your Majesty has every opportunity, and it is also the duty of the ministers to make up for the omissions, and it is also the duty of the ministers to check and fill the gaps." Yuan Zhan said this very well, not only covering up the embarrassment for Li Jun, but also slightly improving the status of his own people.

Zhang An, who was an assistant, nodded as he listened, if there was a small book now, Zhang An would definitely record it soon.

Since the ministers have arranged it in advance, Li Jun doesn't have to worry about it, clapped his hands and broke up, today is the day when Empress Dowager Wei is going to choose a concubine for Li Jun, with this idle time, it is better to go back and take a good look at the beauty.

Empress Dowager Wei has long been dissatisfied with Li Jun's harem, and only Xiao Meier and Wang Zhaojun are innocent, so this time Empress Dowager Wei specially selected the daughters of five ministers to enter the palace to participate in the selection of concubines.

It's all twenty-eight years old, Li Jun smelled the unique smell of the beauty, and couldn't help but be intoxicated, at this time the Empress Dowager Wei coughed and said: "Emperor, don't look at incivility, don't listen to incivility, there is this palace here, so don't worry about the emperor, the emperor should go back and continue to review the folds." ”

Li Jun was speechless when he heard this, and bowed his hand to the Empress Dowager Wei and left, grandma's, this is not the same as the imaginary concubine at all, I remember that when I was watching the TV series, groups of beauties came up, and then the emperor and the queen, the queen mother and others commented on it, but now it's good, there are no hundreds of beauties to choose from, and the emperor can't participate yet.

But Li Jun still didn't give up, and drew the heads of the two girls he liked on it, one was convex and backward, and the other had a beautiful mole on his mouth, which looked very playful, Li Jun handed the note to He Shen after writing it, and then said obscenely: "Find a way to hand it to Qiu Ya, Qiu Ya will understand my intentions." "Today's selection of concubines, as the queen, Xiao Meier, did not participate because she went to worship Xiao Wangzhi, so Empress Dowager Wei called her former confidant Qiu Ya.

"The old slave obeys." After speaking, the master and servant looked at each other and smiled.

He Shen came back soon, and then the master and servant went to the imperial garden together to bathe the sun, stealing half a day of leisure, Li Jun was lying on a comfortable recliner, and the two palace maids next to him were shaking a pu fan, with their clothes open, and a silver wine jug was chilled in a white jade basin on the low table, and the wine glass was placed at hand, as long as he raised his hand, there would be a cold wine syrup in his stomach.

But it was boring to lie down for a long time, Li Jun was idle and bored, so he asked He Shen to bring the nearest newspaper, and when he opened the first page of the newspaper, there was a familiar sentence written on it: "Tao furniture, Tong Su is not bullied." Li Jun nodded with satisfaction, it seems that the merchants of Datang are now more and more good at doing business.

Looking at Li Jun's eyes, in a newspaper called "Liaodong tabloid", Li Jun saw a very familiar picture, on which a chicken was drawn, and next to the chicken there was an egg as big as a chicken, and a proverb was written next to it: "The rod beats the roe deer and scoops the fish, and the pheasant flies into the rice pot." ”

Isn't this the Tang Dynasty version of a comic book, Li Jun looked down at the author's name again, it said it was Lu Xiu, Lu Xiu Li Jun still had an impression, this person was the first batch of Shangshu Ling, and later went to Yuyang County, the northeasternmost county, as a county order, and he did a good job.

So Li Jun said to He Shen: "Go to the cabinet and bring over the immigration reports from the counties in eastern Liaoning in recent years." ”

He Shen agreed, and soon came back, Li Jun opened it and took a look, as he expected, although this Yuyang County is located in the northernmost part of Liaodong, it seems that the entire Liaodong County still has the largest number of immigrants in Yuyang County over the years.

Li Jun instructed: "He Shen, say to Shangshutai Sima Da, let him reward Lu Xiu, and send a copy of this newspaper to Chen Hong, the Taishou of Beiping County, he has been in Beiping County for so long, and the number of immigrants in Beiping County is still so small, I really don't know what he eats?" ”

"The old slave obeys."

At this moment, Qiu Ya came over, looking at Li Jun's comfortable appearance, Qiu Ya was not polite, and directly picked up the wine on the table and dried it, Li Jun smiled and waved his hand, letting everyone go away, and then flattered: "Concubine Ai is really hard, how is it?" How's it going? ”

Qiu Ya glanced at Li Jun and said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the two female concubines you like have already arranged for you, and they will enter the palace in a few days, one is named Dou Yiyi, who is Dou Guan's distant niece; One is called Gongsun Qiong, the daughter of Gongsun Kun, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites. ”

Li Jun shook his head secretly, it is not possible to choose a concubine in this world without a backstage, Qiu Ya glanced at Li Jun and said, "What's wrong?" Still not satisfied? ”

Li Jun hurriedly shook his head and said, "How is it possible?" I'm satisfied. ”

"Hmph, that's okay, it's not a shame that I've been busy for so long, and I was reprimanded by the Queen Mother, really." Qiu Ya snorted coldly.

Li Jun smiled, walked behind Qiu Ya and politely pressed Qiu Ya's shoulder and said, "Okay, Concubine Ai is really hard." ”

Qiu Ya said helplessly: "Your Majesty, since you said that you have taken a fancy to it, then just say no, who would dare to stop you?" Why do you have to go around in such a big circle? ”

Li Jun smiled bitterly: "Now is the change of office, the situation is surging, and it is inconvenient for me to come forward directly at this time." ”

Qiu Ya sighed, touched Li Jun's hand and said, "Your Majesty, it's hard work." ”

"Haha, why don't you make up for it tonight?"
