On May 12 of the Gregorian calendar, the Earl of Stratford was beheaded in front of an angry crowd of 200,000 Londoners, the first to be cut off in the coming civil war, in which the Earl of Stratford became the first unfortunate casualty of the civil war, and the reign of Charles I began to end.

The bourgeois revolution in England has broken out!

Zhu Youxiao's plan to eat locusts has just achieved some results, but in June, there was a severe drought in Lianggi, Shandong, Henan, Zhejiang, and Huguang, and locusts broke out. Rumors began to appear in the empire, and because Zhu Youxiao's implementation of eating locusts offended the locust god, locust plagues broke out in several provinces of the empire one after another. When the new cabinet came to power, the first thing it faced was the disaster that broke out throughout the empire.

"How's the disaster relief going?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"The relief efforts are going very well, but the victims in many places are now refusing to eat the yellow ponds." Sun Yuanhua said.

"There are even rumors among the people that His Majesty offended the locust god because of eating locusts, which caused the empire to suffer locust plagues one after another." Wen Tiren said.

"Locust God? I'm afraid that someone with a heart is deliberately using this to spread rumors! Zhu Youxiao sneered.

"Your Majesty, the minister believes that Jinyiwei and the Criminal Department should be ordered to thoroughly investigate this matter and arrest the mastermind behind it." Yang Sichang suggested.

"Your Majesty, the mouth of the people is more important than the Sichuan, and this matter should be ignored and not blocked." Sun Yuanhua retorted.

"The investigation is to be investigated, but it is not appropriate to be implicated, just catch the thief." Zhu Youxiao said.

"Your Majesty, now that the rumors have spread, what should we do next?" Wen Tiren asked.

"I believe that rumors stop at the wise, you can carry out disaster relief with peace of mind, and I don't mind the rest, and you don't need to mind." Zhu Youxiao said.

"No."

……

After attending the court meeting, Zhu Youxiao has been thinking about how to deal with rumors. Although the executive power is now vested in the cabinet, Zhu Youxiao will still try his best to participate in the monthly court meeting.

"Your Majesty, but there is another major disaster in the Empire?" Zhang Yan saw Zhu Youxiao, who was full of worries, and asked.

"No, I'm just thinking about the locust god that is rumored among the folk." Zhu Youxiao said.

"The concubine has also heard about it, and now even Jingshi has such rumors." Zhang Yan said softly.

"Your Majesty is the Ninety-Five Supreme, the true Son of Heaven, Your Majesty can behead the locust god." Li Xiangjun said with a smile.

"Li Xiang, don't talk nonsense." Zhang Yan scolded.

"No, no, maybe I can really kill the locust god." Li Xiangjun's words made Zhu Youxiao have a flash of inspiration.

"Your Majesty can really slay the locust god?!" Zhang Yan said in surprise.

"Your Majesty, can you really slay the locust god? How to chop? Li Xiangjun was originally joking, but he didn't expect Zhu Youxiao to take it seriously.

"I don't know if I can do it? I'll try it first. Zhu Youxiao said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, can you bring your slaves and maidservants then?" Li Xiangjun asked excitedly.

"When the time comes, I won't be able to catch the locust god yet. And before this matter is completed, it must not be leaked half a point. Zhu Youxiao said.

"No."

……

The next day, Zhu Youxiao found Sun Yunqiu and Wang Zheng to discuss the capture of the locust god.

"Is it possible to use glass to enlarge the small locust, and use the illusion of human eyes to make the small locust look like a very large locust from a distance?" Zhu Youxiao asked.

"In principle, there is no problem, it's like using a huge magnifying glass to magnify this locust, but this has never been tried, and it takes time." Sun Yunqiu thought for a while and said.

"Wang Aiqing, this matter still needs to give full play to your talents, I want this matter to look seamless." Zhu Youxiao said.

"The minister will do his best to assist, and if there is any problem, the minister will report to His Majesty in time." Wang Zheng said.

"If you need my help, let me know and I will do my best to help you. And this matter must not be leaked to the fourth person, except for the three of us. Zhu Youxiao said.

"No."

……

Zhu Youxiao remembered that in later generations, some acrobatic troupes used people's optical illusions to perform half-human and half-snake, Zhu Youxiao didn't understand it when he was a child and thought it was true, but he didn't know until later that it was a visual illusion caused by the use of glass. Now glass manufacturing
