Standing in the main hall!

Today, Li Shimin rarely did not work overtime, and he did not have a sad expression when he came to the main hall.

It seemed that the sorrow that had been suppressed for months was suddenly released.

"Your Majesty has rarely smiled since he ascended the throne, and it seems that the problem has been solved!" The husband was happy, and the eldest grandson queen was also happy, waved away the palace maid and eunuch, and walked straight behind Li Shimin to help him pinch his shoulders and beat his back.

"Guanyin, you still know me!" Li Shimin laughed heartily and pulled Empress Changsun to sit down.

They have come together as husband and wife, and no matter what kind of difficulties they have experienced, they always support each other and comfort each other.

And Empress Changsun is indeed a good queen, a good wife, and a good mother.

At least since the two got married, Li Shimin has never bothered much in the house, and everything he can think of is that the eldest grandson queen has done it.

When he had a headache, Empress Eldest Sun never told him anything more about it, which allowed Li Shimin to focus all his energy on more important things.

Li Shimin has been able to get to this day, although the help of the ministers is indispensable, but the role of Empress Changsun is also very great.

"The taste of the locust cake is not good, but the people don't care, the tension in the granary has been relieved, at least millions of people can barely survive, Guanyin, do you know?" Li Shimin turned his head to look at Empress Changsun and asked sincerely: "I ordered all localities to collect locusts, judging from the news reported near Jingshi, if this decree is delayed for ten days and half a month, the locust plague will be inevitable!" ”

This is what Li Shimin is really happy about, the current locusts are still on the ground, and they have not yet fully grown.

This thing has been there in previous years, but not as much as this year, and the drought is so severe, and everyone's energy is not focused on it, so this problem is somewhat overlooked.

However, because the decree was issued at the right time, the local government obtained the method of making locust cakes issued by the imperial court, and mobilized the people to go to the fields to catch locusts.

The common people can use the locusts they have caught to go to the government to exchange locust cakes for food, and about a pound of locusts can be exchanged for a cake.

So from another level, the facts have proved that this year's locust plague can no longer be stopped, but their move can reduce the scale of the locust plague to a certain extent, depending on how many locusts they can catch before the locust plague really breaks out?

"Locusts are small and stubborn, they are not easy to be arrested, and there is still a risk of disaster, Your Majesty should take precautions!" Empress Eldest Sun smiled and gave Li Shimin a timely reminder.

"Hey, it seems that it is not easy for me to get a compliment from you!" Li Shimin smiled awkwardly.

This has become a routine for the husband and wife, and when Li Shimin comes to show off triumphantly, he will never hear words of praise from the mouth of the eldest grandson empress.

When he was sad, the good words of the eldest grandson queen seemed to be endless.

"If Your Majesty wants to listen to good words, just go outside and take a walk!" Empress Eldest Sun smiled.

"With locust cakes, the problem of food is not so urgent for the time being, and the imperial court has also made a way to deal with it, once a locust plague occurs in a certain place, the rest of the places will immediately start to harvest, although it will affect the harvest, but it is better than no harvest at all!" Li Shimin said at this time, what the eldest grandson queen can think of, how can the ministers not think of it?

Locust plagues often start from a county, and the speed of sweeping is not fast at the beginning, but as time goes by, the speed will get faster and faster, and in the later stage, it is basically developing rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the place where it passes is barren.

The drought is not extinct, the yield is still some, rather than letting the locusts eat, it is better to harvest it early, at least so that people can live for a few more days.

"Hey, this sixth man, he can not only wake up the person in his dream with a word, but also stir up a jar of muddy water even more muddy......" Li Shimin shook his head helplessly when he thought of Li Yuanjing.

"Your Majesty, what happened to Yuan Jing again?" Empress Eldest Sun was stunned.

"This kid wrote an excerpt, and most of the whole article was scolding, scolding me and the ministers, but in the end he threw out a method, for this method, the ministers made a fuss, and finally his proposal was passed, but the original proposal was still ripping!" Li Shimin smiled and roughly explained the situation in the imperial study.

There is no dispute about whether to repair the canal or not, because no one can guarantee whether there will be flooding in the coming year, but in this situation, repairing the canal is undoubtedly the best opportunity.

Almost all the rivers have dried up, and if you repair them at this time, you will get twice the result with half the effort, and the effect is surprisingly good.

The ministers have decided to repair the main rivers and then some of the important tributaries, and basically every county has at least one canal that needs to be repaired.

However, the road construction has not yet reached a result, and the point of dispute is still in the north and south.

"Your Majesty, Yuan Jing came to the concubine here today, saying that he wanted to exchange land with His Majesty!" Empress Changsun didn't answer, and directly asked people to take the five IOUs left by Li Yuanjing.

She never interfered in the affairs of the court, and never expressed her opinions, although it was about Li Yuanjing, but after all, it was involved in political affairs, and Empress Changsun chose to turn a blind eye.

"Changing land?" Li Shimin was stunned, and immediately remembered that Li Yuanjing was looking for his land before.

However, when he saw the five IOUs clearly, Li Shimin was stunned, and it was a little difficult to believe the content on them.

I carefully read the contents of each IOU, and all of them are exactly the same, except for the different handwriting, as if they were carved out of a mold.

Confirming that these IOUs were not fake, Li Shimin's face instantly turned blue: "What the hell is going on?" ”

"The matter has been clearly understood by the concubines, Yuan Jing came up with a playful method, and deceived them of dozens of dollars with a trick, but as a result, several people fell deeper and deeper, it was Du He who first proposed to use a hundred Zhuangzi as a bet, only the second boy of the Su Guo family did not follow, but a few people didn't expect that this time Yuan Jing really won."

"Nonsense!" Li Shimin scolded angrily, these boys are really cubs selling Ye Tian and are not distressed.

They Lao Tzu followed him to participate in the Xuanwu Gate, and he had the merit of following the dragon, and the most was only awarded 1,400 households, which were counted according to the head of the household, not according to the number of land in a household.

In order to take care of these old subordinates, everyone was given some land in Guanzhong, and the others were in Kuanxiang outside Guanzhong.

This 100 tilts in Guanzhong is a real 100 tilts, and in Guanzhong, 100 tilts can probably be divided into 300, or even 500 people.

"How much land is he going to get?" After the anger, Li Shimin calmed down, looked at Empress Eldest Sun and asked.

If Li Yuanjing hadn't persuaded Empress Changsun, she wouldn't have mentioned this matter today, and since she mentioned it, it means that Empress Changsun agreed.

"Yuanjing wants a few mountains in the Qinling Mountains and some farmland at the foot of the mountains......"
