After sending Yuan Tiangang away, Li Shimin immediately issued an order to call the eldest grandson Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Chu Suiliang, and several other henchmen and ministers to the Ganlu Palace.

Among the several confidants and old ministers, only Chu Suiliang knew what the emperor was doing when he summoned everyone over this time, so he kept a sad face.

Fang Xuanling was more careful, and when he saw Chu Suiliang's ugly face, he was confused. The emperor summoned several old ministers to discuss matters, thinking that it should have the intention of making great progress, and everyone should be pleased with the emperor.

Since Li Shimin ascended the throne, it was the first time that so many ministers had been summoned to the Ganlu Hall for deliberations in such a grand manner.

"Brother Chu, the emperor has worked hard to summon us to discuss matters, we should be happy and relieved, why do you look listless?" Fang Xuanling looked at Chu Suiliang with a smile and said jokingly.

Yu Shinan on the side also came over and said, "Yes, Brother Chu, yesterday the three of us asked for the Linjiang Immortal Mobao together, aren't you very happy, what's wrong today?" His face was like autumn frost. ”

The eldest grandson Wuji quipped: "Shouldn't Lord Chu's favorite Mobao be snatched away by some unscrupulous people?" ”

Ha! Ha! Ha! Several adults laughed gloatingly, and several people knew that Chu Suiliang was a person who loved calligraphy, and if his beloved Mobao was robbed, he would not be distressed to death, and it would be normal for him to have an autumn frost face.

What I didn't expect was that it was really guessed by a few people, Comrade Chu Suiliang was indeed robbed of his beloved Mobao, and this unscrupulous person is still the emperor today.

Chu Suiliang didn't have the heart to care about their teasing, if a few of them knew that the person making fun of was the current emperor, they didn't know what they would think, and they probably had the urge to hit the wall.

Chu Suiliang is now just thinking about how to share the emperor's worries and how to reduce the losses of next year's locust plague as much as possible.

The terrible locust plague is well known, once the locust plague appears, it will cover the sky and the sun, and almost no grass will grow where the locusts pass. As soon as the people heard that the locust plague was coming, they could only resign themselves to their fate except to pray to God and worship Buddha.

Several adults teased Chu Suiliang in front of the palace, but they didn't know that Li Shimin in the hall heard it clearly, and they didn't expect that they were said to be unscrupulous by the eldest grandson Wuji, Li Shimin smiled. asked the eunuch next to him, and knew that several old ministers had arrived, so he asked the eunuch to let all the adults enter the palace to discuss matters.

Hearing the eunuch's message to let everyone enter the hall, several adults hurriedly put away their troubled thoughts and walked into the Manna Hall together.

As soon as a few people walked up to Li Shimin and stood still, Li Shimin said with an ugly face: "I heard someone in the hall just now ridiculing me as an unscrupulous person? The implication is that Li Shimin is equivalent to admitting in disguise that he robbed Chu Suiliang's beloved things.

When Chu Suiliang heard this, he forced a smile, his face turned crimson, and his mood was a lot easier.

The eldest grandson Wuji listened to it but was embarrassed, who knows that the person he is ridiculing is the current emperor, the consequences are self-evident, he is so immortal that he actually said that the emperor is an unscrupulous person, especially the emperor is still his own brother-in-law, the eldest grandson Wuji's mood at the moment can be imagined, he really wants to go through the cracks.

Fortunately, he also knew that Li Shimin didn't really want to care about this, he just laughed at it, but his face was a little hot when he thought about making fun of the emperor.

Several adults who followed the coaxing also collectively silenced, feeling ugly.

"Alright, put your mind away." Li Shimin suddenly made a gesture and waved to the side, and the palace maids and eunuchs on the side all quietly retreated when they saw this, and Li Shimin continued with a majestic face: "Several of them are my right-hand men, and I asked you to wait here today, there is really a very serious matter to discuss with you, and I hope you will work hard." ”

When several adults heard Li Shimin's tone and that very serious matter, their hearts became heavy.

Li Shimin continued: "I got a message yesterday that there will be a serious locust plague in the Guanzhong area next year, and I have already confirmed this news with Yuan Lao Immortal. Everyone knows the horror of the locust plague, so for the sake of the people, I hope that several Aiqing can brainstorm and come up with some feasible strategies, take precautions as soon as possible, and try to reduce the losses of the people. ”

Li Shimin did not think about eliminating the locust plague, and in his opinion, it was difficult for some strong people to eliminate the locust crossing everywhere.

History records that several locust plagues have not been spared, and Li Shimin has no confidence in eliminating the locust plague, so it is good if the losses of the people can be reduced as much as possible.

"What? A severe locust plague? "The eldest grandson Wuji and others were extremely shocked in their hearts, there have been many locust plagues recorded in the history books, which one was not a huge loss.

What makes them even more puzzling is where did the emperor get the news, this kind of thing can also be predicted, what kind of master can accurately predict next year's locust plague, the key is that the emperor actually believes it.

But the emperor summoned them to solve the problem, and they couldn't do nothing. "Your Majesty, there has been no good solution to this locust plague since ancient times, otherwise it would not be more serious every time, and the only way to do it now is to store up some more food for disaster relief." Eldest Sun Wuji frowned and said first.

The eldest grandson Wuji said it painlessly, Li Shimin was a little displeased, and turned his head to look at Fang Xuanling and the others. Several people were pessimistic and discussed, but they couldn't discuss a good way.

"Du Aiqing, what about you?" Li Shimin turned his gaze to Du Ruhui again.

It's just that Du Ruhui, who has always been good at making decisions on weekdays, was also at a loss at the moment, and shook his head helplessly.

Li Shimin was suddenly a little disappointed, there were so many henchmen and old ministers, and there was no one who could share his worries at this moment.

He could only turn his gaze to Fang Xuanling, usually Fang Xuanling has a lot of ideas, I hope he can give a good suggestion! Alas!

"Fang Aiqing, tell me, what is the best plan?" Li Shimin looked at Fang Xuanling and said a little sadly.

Fang Xuanling was stunned when he heard this, he was also confused, he didn't know what to say, in fact, his thoughts were similar to those of the eldest grandson Wuji. Looking at the emperor's inquiring gaze, he thought about it and said dejectedly: "Your Majesty, Weichen doesn't have any good plans, maybe he can only tell the people in advance, so that the people can take precautions in time, so as not to be in a hurry when the locust plague comes." ”

As soon as Fang Xuanling's words were finished, Yu Shinan shouted: "Lord Fang's move is very inappropriate, so that the people will be flustered and the people's hearts will be unstable, and I am afraid that the world will be in chaos at that time." ”

Li Shimin thought about it and felt that it was inappropriate, but everyone sighed and couldn't come up with any good ideas. I was very annoyed in my heart, so I had to flick my sleeves and said helplessly: "Okay, you go back first, let me calm down, and this matter will be discussed another day." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji and the others had no choice but to withdraw from the Ganlu Hall and go back to their respective homes.
