"Won't you explain to me what you want so much food for?" Li Shimin looked at Qin Feng.

"Minister... Qin Feng was speechless by Li Shimin's question, this matter is indeed difficult to explain. If you tell the truth, I'm afraid there will be more trouble in the future. What to do! Qin Feng didn't have an idea for a while.

"Why, is this so difficult to answer?" Li Shimin stared at Qin Feng and forced.

Qin Feng looked at Li Shimin, who was about to be angry, so he had to start organizing language to tell Li Shimin the truth, after all, by next year, everything would be revealed, and when the time came, he would have to release his grain casually.

"Back to Your Majesty, the grass people want to prepare food for emergencies, in case of emergency!" Qin Feng said.

"Emergency?" Li Shimin was puzzled: "What should I be anxious about!" ”

Qin Feng didn't continue, but looked at the left and right maids and guards, Li Shimin arrived, waved his hand, and Gonggong Li left the hall with the left and right maids and guards.

"Say it!" After everyone left, Li Shimin asked Qin Feng.

"Your Majesty, when the grass people followed the master in the mountains, the master once taught the grass people a subject called nature. It is about insects, birds, fish, beasts, plants and flowers in nature. Qin Feng started the flickering mode.

"What does this have to do with your food stockpiles?" Li Shimin must not understand.

"The grain that the minister stored in order to deal with the locust plague!"

"What? Locusts? When Li Shimin heard these two words, he stood up from his chair awkwardly: "Qin Feng, you don't have to talk nonsense, be careful of betraying you for the crime of bullying the king!" ”

"Your Majesty, the teacher once taught me how to predict locust plagues, and I have only learned half-baked, so I am not sure, so I can only prevent it in advance. The teacher once said that locusts live in swarms and have a strong ability to reproduce, and eat crops and plants, and can fly, and when the weather is dry, they will lay eggs in the ground, and one inch of land can lay about 2,000 egg masses, and each egg mass contains 50 to 80 eggs, that is to say, one inch of land can lay 100,000 to 150,000 eggs. The main condition that causes locust plagues is drought, which has great benefits for the reproduction, growth, development and survival of locusts. If the drought continues this year, the locust plague will definitely break out, the grass people have heard the locust plague mentioned by the master, where the locust plague goes, everything is eaten, nothing can be left, the people have no food to eat, it will cause famine, and then there will be many more refugees, the grass people can not pray for the rain to stop the drought, and they can't see the scene of the people's misery, so they can only prepare more food before the locust plague breaks out to prevent the locust plague. Qin Feng said sincerely to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin heard what Qin Feng said, although there were many words that he had never heard of, but he still believed Qin Feng, after all, Qin Feng came to the Tang Dynasty and did not deceive himself, smallpox, papermaking, etc. all appeared one by one, Qin Feng said so much now, and spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy grain.

"Qin Feng, this matter is not trivial, are you sure what you said?" Li Shimin asked towards Qin Feng with a serious face.

"Sure, within three years, if the drought continues, the locust plague will definitely break out, and I can vouch for it with my head!" Qin Feng was blunt, anyway, he had already said it, and history should not make much mistake.

Li Shimin didn't reply, got up and walked back and forth in the hall, thought for nearly a quarter of an hour, and said to Qin Feng.

"Qin Feng. This matter is too shocking for me to tell the world, although I believe you, especially at this time, if the officials of the family know about it, there is more reason to impeach you with me, do you understand? ”

"The grass people understand!" Qin Feng said.

"I can't give you much support on the surface, so I can only suppress you from collecting food. You don't have to send the dividends of the restaurant paper factory to the queen every month, I will tell the queen when I turn around, you can take the money to collect grain for me first. Li Shimin thought about it, now this matter really can't be made public, and Qin Feng is the only one who knows, and he can only let Qin Feng deal with it first.

"The grass people obey! However, Your Majesty, the minister still wants to ask you for some people, and he is counting on the Qin Mansion generals to be afraid that they will not be able to collect much! Qin Feng said.

"Okay, who do you want, I will send him to you tomorrow!" Li Shimin said.

"I don't know what His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been doing lately!" Qin Feng asked Li Shimin.

As soon as Li Shimin heard this, he understood that Qin Feng wanted Li Chengqian to go.

"Tell me why?"

"As the prince, it is time for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to do something, for the world and the people. If the locust plague comes out, the prince is wise, and if the locust plague does not come out, Qin Feng apologizes. I hope that Your Majesty will be fulfilled! "Qin Feng bowed and saluted, if there is really a locust plague, he can't afford to bear these credits, so it's better to hand them over as soon as possible. It is not a good thing to hand it over to other brothers, and only Li Chengqian can justifiably take the credit.

"Rong Zhen think about it! You go back first, I have received a tip, the head of the family has set off, and it is estimated that he will arrive in Chang'an in a few days. Li Shimin said to Qin Feng while thinking.

"The grass people are retired!" Qin Feng bowed, walked out of the main hall, and was taken back to Dali Temple by the guards.

Qin Feng returned to the prison of Dali Temple and found that Qin Qiong was actually waiting in the prison, thinking that he was probably here for food.

"Father-in-law! What are you doing here! ”

"I'm here to ask you something! What is the use of you taking so much grain? The people of the family are staring at you every day, why can't you stop for a few days? Qin Qiong said to Qin Feng with a worried expression.

"Father-in-law, don't worry, I have made it clear to Your Majesty about the food, and the family doesn't have to worry about them, and they won't be making trouble in a few days." Qin Feng helped Qin Qiong sit on the meadow.

"Did you just go to see Your Majesty?" Qin Qiong asked.

"Well, Your Majesty summons!" Qin Feng replied that he couldn't tell Qin Qiong about the locust plague, for fear that it would cause unnecessary trouble.

"Now that you and Your Majesty have explained it clearly, I have nothing to worry about." Qin Qiong breathed a sigh of relief and continued to say to Qin Feng: "I also heard your Uncle Fang and Uncle Du talk about the method of interrogation, hey, you kid, you are very smart, how could you make such a mistake!" ”

"Father-in-law don't worry, I have a way to get out, child." Qin Feng said with a smile.

"Think more before doing things in the future, if it weren't for Your Majesty's intentional protection, no one would save you this time, and a royal family would have nothing left of the scum you eat, Your Majesty is very tricky for the family, let alone you." Qin Qiong said to Qin Feng.

"The child knows! It's the child's fault that even the father-in-law was affected this time! Qin Feng said to Qin Qiong, he didn't know that when the officials of the family impeached themselves, they also impeached Qin Qiong and others, and the charge of improper referral was confirmed.

"You kid, what's the problem, since my father-in-law and I recognize you as a son, you are a member of my Qin family, if the family wants to move, you have to see if I Qin Qiong will let me go!" Qin Qiong got up and said domineeringly.

"Thank you, father!" Qin Feng bowed and saluted.

"You rest, I'll go first, you don't have to worry, even if Your Majesty can't protect this time, my father-in-law will try his best to save your life!" Qin Qiong patted Qin Feng's shoulder and said to Qin Feng.

"Okay, there is a father-in-law, don't worry about the child!" Qin Feng nodded, his heart full of emotion.

"Okay, I'll go first! If there is anything missing, let them carry a letter, I will ask Huaiyu to send it to you! Qin Qiong said and walked outside, a prince of the country, the cell head is not so bold to lock the prison door.

"The child knows!" Qin Feng bowed down to send Qin Qiong.
