One day earlier, Li Er took his ministers to eat locusts in the Taiji Palace, and early the next morning, it was published in the Datang Weekly, and the two newspapers of Life Daily, which were transmitted by the fast riding of the post station, and all of them were sent to the 27 prefectures of Guanzhong.

As a result, the emperor led his ministers to eat locusts, and for a time, it was rumored that it was boiling in the entire Guanzhong.

For fear that the people would not know, the emperor's move, there were special scribes at the entrance of the state capitals, holding newspapers and reading them to the onlookers.

I don't know who wrote the content of the newspaper, in short, the scene on the Taiji Hall that day was vividly written.

In particular, His Majesty the Emperor's sentence, which was originally a scapegoat for the people, was even more described, and those who heard it wept and were moved to listen!

The emperor is eating locusts, and the princes and ministers below have not fallen one by one, so the local officials naturally cannot be left behind.

In order to respond to the call of His Majesty Li Er, the Great Majesty of the Tang Dynasty, and also to show his determination to His Majesty the Emperor, officials in various state capitals also launched an operation to eat locusts.

In front of the onlookers at the gate of the government office, the officials of the state government, under the leadership of the state assassin, opened a cauldron.

According to the newspaper description, the locusts were caught alive, the locust wings and limbs were carefully pinched, the water pot was boiled, the oil was fried, and each person had a plate, and they feasted in front of the surrounding people.

The emperor and the ministers have to share the worries of the people, how can they be missing these local officials!

So, it's not just their food, it's their family. It was also activated, one plate per person. It contained locusts that had just come out of the pot, and they were repeating it while eating. What Li Er said in the Taiji Hall that day.

That scene is absolutely tragic enough, absolutely tragic enough!

How can the people know the mess, they believe what they see in front of them, and they are immediately moved when they see the officials with their families and their families and their tears flowing.

The emperor can eat it, the ministers can eat it, the officials can eat it, why can't they eat it?

Eat, what locust gods, what worship. At this time, they all ignored it and let go of eating locusts, which is the most correct, and I don't believe that so many people eat together, and they can't eat all the locusts.

So, in the entire Guanzhong, after Li Er and his ministers ate locusts once, they spread rapidly!

Locusts can be eaten in a variety of ways. These are all introduced in the newspapers, and the officials of the state capitals in various places not only eat for themselves, but also teach the methods to the people!

In fact. If you leave the shadow in your heart, what you don't want to eat is locusts, processed locusts. The taste is also very good, meaty. It has a sweet taste, like a small chicken.

The most critical thing is. Listening to the introduction in the newspaper, this locust eats too much, and it can also prevent diseases, so there is nothing to say, eat it!

It turns out that when something becomes a trend, the huge power that quickly forms is quite terrifying.

Since eating locusts and gradually forming a huge trend in Guanzhong, whether it is a village or a state capital, there is no longer a scene of worshipping the locust god with a miasma of black smoke.

At this time, even if a stupid person does not dare to have the courage to disagree with His Majesty the Emperor, it will be purely impatient!

In the fields, you will see old people and children, holding nets and catching locusts.

The locusts that were caught were kept at home to eat, and the rest were simply scalded to death with boiling water according to the newspaper, and then collectively transported to the processing plant in Xinfeng.

"It's almost gone!" And in the whole Guanzhong, when the locusts were eating vigorously, at this moment, in a palace located in the East Palace, Li Chengqian was crawling on a collapse with a sallow face, desperately spitting yellow water.

I have forgotten that this is the first time he has vomited, and he can't vomit anything, but he always feels that there are always a bunch of things in his stomach, and he even opens his mouth to speak, and he feels that he will vomit out.

In fact, in the East Palace at this time, not only Li Chengqian was vomiting, but also Li Tai was also vomiting, he originally ran to the East Palace to eat.

In the past few days, since his father and the emperor ate locusts in public in the Taiji Palace, it was stipulated that from now on, as long as the locusts are flooded for a day, the meals in the palace will not be changed for another day.

This is a pain to these pampered princes and princesses!

I have always eaten the meals of the imperial kitchen in the palace, and I have to pick and choose, and this time I eat locusts every day, and I feel that as long as I close my eyes, I can give birth to a pair of locust wings behind my back.

It really killed them, and now as soon as it was time to eat, it was time to eat, and one by one they were like the execution ground, their faces were sallow, and their bodies swayed from side to side.

At this time, let alone eating, as long as you smell that taste, you will already have a nausea.

Therefore, Li Tai came over today just to have some food here in the East Palace, at least, in the entire palace, that is, the East Palace and the sleeping palace of the Emperor Taishang are separated from them.

The Emperor Taishang, he didn't dare to go, naturally it was here in the East Palace!

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the East Palace, he happened to meet his prince's brother who vomited, and as a result, he who was originally good also crawled there and vomited.

"Actually, Lone now wants to know if the person who had a bad idea is just like us every day!" After vomiting for a long time, he finally felt better, Li Chengqian suddenly lay on the couch, looked listlessly at the roof above his head, and gasped for air.

"No, it won't!" Li Tai seemed to understand Zhao Chen very well, and when he heard Li Chengqian's words, he also got up from the couch and sighed: "The locusts distributed to my brother-in-law's family will not be eaten by my brother-in-law at all!" ”

"Hmph, that's not necessarily!" Li Chengqian's eyes flashed with a gloomy light, he squinted at the roof, and said a little gloatingly: "I heard that the locusts sent to the Hou Mansion are enough!" ”

The emperor mobilized the ministers to eat locusts, and at that time he promised at the Taiji Hall how much the palace would send every day, and then a large group of courtiers who were stimulated were not to be left behind.

This kind of thing, to put it mildly, is to rob the emperor of the crime, and it can only be a lot more than the emperor. So, in the end, it became. Quantitative quotas, every courtier is no exception.

And naturally. Zhao Chen, the marquis of the empire, can't be left alone, although no one is present, but some people take the initiative to think about him, how much to give to others, how much in the Marquis of Chang'an's mansion.

Moreover, because of Zhao Chen's good idea, a little extra amount was added!

"It's useless!" Li Tai lay on the couch in despair, learning from Li Chengqian's example. Looking at the roof, he said weakly: "My brother-in-law's house has specially raised a group of locust-eaters, and if you send it twice, you can still eat it clean!" ”

"What... What the? Li Chengqian didn't understand Li Tai's words at first, but as soon as he said this, he suddenly woke up and opened his mouth wide. I can't stop swinging all over my body.

Wingman!

Zhao Chen's mansion raised more than 100 wingmen, and the wingmen lived in the mountains for many years and spent all day with insects and ants.

Before Zhao Chen arrived in Lingnan. These wingmen harvest very little food every year, so. At the end of the year, the most food is still the prey in the mountains.

And the Lingnan area. There are a lot of rats, insects, snakes, ants and the like, naturally these things. It's also a bureaucrat who often eats!

Locusts are terrible pests in the eyes of the people of Guanzhong, but in the eyes of the people, they are the best food to satisfy hunger.

This is also the reason why Li Tai said that the locusts sent to the Hou Mansion would not be Zhao Chen's turn to eat at all, because there were more than 100 people who used locusts as food to eat, and no matter how many locusts there were, they could be wiped out.

"It's not fair!" Li Chengqian figured out the meaning of Li Tai's words, and suddenly lay on the couch in pain and groaned: "Why does he have someone else to eat for him, and he can't..."

With a sudden, when Li Chengqian said the last sentence, he sat up from the couch abruptly and looked straight ahead.

Waiting until Li Tai next to him, he sat up curiously, and just when he wanted to ask, Li Chengqian, who saw him, slapped his forehead suddenly, turned his head to look at Li Tai Li Tai and said, "Qingque'er, do you know that there is some peace in the East Palace these days?" ”

"What?" Li Tai blinked vigorously, and for a while, he didn't even react, looked at Li Chengqian, who was elated in the sudden dye, and asked suspiciously.

"You don't know!" As Li Chengqian spoke, he hurriedly jumped down from the couch, called the maids, helped him put on his robes, and said to Li Tai behind him: "Qingque'er, you just need to know that the East Palace needs some mountain officials to come over and help train the East Palace guards!" ”

This was already clear enough, Li Tai, who was originally surprised, after hearing this, the corners of his mouth twitched vigorously, and he silently spit out two words at Li Chengqian, who went out.

In the Hou Mansion, no visitors have been refused these days, Zhang Lu, who is the housekeeper of the Hou Mansion, always has a kind smile, and a sentence on his lips will always be on his lips to all the visitors who come to visit: "I'm sorry, my Hou Ye has recently contracted a wind, and it is not convenient to meet guests at all!" ”

It's just that in this case, it is 100% effective for ordinary visitors, but it doesn't have much effect on people like Li Chengqian and Cheng Yanjin.

No, Zhao Chen just sent him away, Cheng Biting Jin, who came to ask for someone from him, his butt hadn't sat down yet, and Li Chengqian came to visit him with his prince Liurate.

said that he came to visit Zhao Chen, but as a result, when he saw Zhao Chen, the first thing he said was that the East Palace has not been peaceful recently, and he needs mountain officials to train the guards of the East Palace in the past.

"Can you make up a better excuse?" Zhao Chen looked at Li Chengqian with disdain, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, expressing serious contempt for Li Chengqian's clumsy lies.

"You don't care if it's good or not, I just want to borrow someone from you anyway!" Li Chengqian looked like he had settled on Zhao Chen, and said while lying on the chair.

"Nope!" Zhao Chen replied very simply, looked at Li Chengqian and said: "Just now, when Uncle Cheng came over, I also said the same, I want to borrow someone from me, and no one will borrow it!" ”

"Why?" As soon as Zhao Chen's words came out, Li Chengqian, who was originally lying on the chair and was about to roll around, suddenly sat up and looked at Zhao Chen incredulously.

"What do you say?" Zhao Chende's face suddenly changed to a sneer, looked at Li Chengqian and said: "They abandoned their families and children and followed me to Chang'an, is it just to let me borrow them?" ”

"And!" When Zhao Chen said this, he looked at Li Chengqian with disdain and said: "It's you who are stupid, you can have a better way, but you just vomit yourself in the dark, who can blame you?" ”

"Am I stupid?" As soon as Li Chengqian heard Zhao Chen's words, he immediately raised his finger and pointed at himself and said, "My father and the emperor have already said in the Taiji Hall that day, no matter who they are, they must eat locusts, can I have any other way?" ”

"Don't admit it?" Zhao Chen listened to Li Chengqian's words, shook his head helplessly, looked at Li Chengqian and said: "I have a good way here, not only so that you don't have to eat locusts, but also so that your brothers and sisters don't have to eat either!" ”

"What about the conditions?" When Li Chengqian heard Zhao Chen's words, he immediately became excited, but when he saw Zhao Chen's calm appearance there, he immediately put away his excitement, looked at Zhao Chen and asked.

"Easy!" When Zhao Chen heard this, he suddenly snapped his fingers at Li Chengqian, hooked his fingers at Li Chengqian, and whispered a word.

With Zhao Chen's words, I saw Li Chengqian's originally frowning brows, stretching a little bit, and when he arrived, he actually showed an ecstatic look. (To be continued.) )
