With Sun Simiao on the side, although Li Er's face was still a little displeased, he didn't show it, ignored Zhang Yi and stood up and said to Sun Simiao: "It turned out that Mr. Sun arrived, I don't know why Mr. is in such a hurry?" ”

"Your Majesty, it is a crime for Poor Dao and Jingyang County to take the liberty of disturbing His Majesty's public affairs!" Sun Simiao showed that he bowed to Li Er again before he arrived: "Don't hide it from Your Majesty, I really have to wait for me this time!" As he spoke, Sun Simiao took out a small paper bag from his arms and presented it with both hands. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

When he was young, a middle-aged man who seemed to be thin immediately walked over, I saw that he was seven feet tall and had an ordinary appearance, which was the kind of inconspicuous appearance even in the crowd, but his steps were very vigorous, and he walked from the back of the curtain to Sun Simiao in three or two steps, and also took the paper bag with both hands and carefully opened it for inspection before handing it to Li Er.

Zhang Yi, a middle-aged man, suddenly became interested, you must know that Li Erben was an emperor who was both civil and military, and he was brave and martial when he was still the king of Qin, and it is not an exaggeration to say that most of the entire Tang Dynasty is his credit. For example, the last time I saw Tingfeng, in Zhang Yi's opinion, he is a very powerful master, and this one is obviously extraordinary, otherwise it would be impossible to protect Li Er's safety up close.

Li Er took the paper bag and looked at it, with a hint of suspicion on his face, and asked, "Mr. Sun, is this?" ”

"It's an egg! Locust eggs, to be exact! Sun Simiao immediately explained: "Your Majesty, today Poor Dao went to the fiefdom of Jingyang County to inquire about the cultivation of herbs, and accidentally found that there were locust eggs in the soil of the field, almost to the extent that there were several eggs in a handful of soil. If it is left unchecked, and the weather heats up during the holidays, the consequences of these eggs hatching are unimaginable! ”

"Smack!"

As soon as Li let go of the second-hand, the paper bag in his hand slipped to the ground, and the whole person seemed to be stunned for a long time.

In the blink of an eye, he had thought of a thousand ways in his head, but.... None of them seem to work! As an emperor, he undoubtedly knew the power of locusts best.

In ancient times, there was a theory of heaven and man induction, and often some strange and inexplicable phenomena or disasters people would automatically summarize to the theory of gods and ghosts. For example, floods, droughts, and locust plagues, once these disasters occur, then the spearhead is the emperor or officials.

As the so-called people can go to the heavenly heart, and the heavenly heart can naturally feel the human heart, the person in power does not cultivate virtue, corrupt the common morality and other heavenly anger, will send disasters, one is a warning, the other is also to give people a certain punishment. Therefore, in order to prevent the disaster from happening again, the best way is for the emperor and his officials to cultivate their personality and improve themselves, to be honest and honest, or to pray to heaven, or to repent themselves, and show their sincerity.

However, this is not the point, the point is that the Tang Dynasty has just experienced a great drought in the first year of Zhenguan, and almost every family in the country has lost their old grain, and Li Er was originally not in the right position, and the successive natural disasters undoubtedly once again denied the authority of his throne!

However, Li Er only lost his mind for a short moment, and soon came to his senses, and immediately ordered the middle-aged man just now: "Twelve, you immediately personally lead someone to investigate, and report it as soon as it is verified!" As he spoke, he looked at Sun Simiao again and asked, "Since Mr. Sun has found the eggs, could it be that Mr. Sun has already found a solution?" ”

"Hey! Your Majesty, there is no good way to be poor, ashamed! Ashamed! Sun Simiao was also helpless at the moment.

If he really had a way to say it a long time ago, why wait until now?

At this time, Zhang Yi looked at Sun Simiao, then at Li Er, rolled his throat before he whispered tentatively: "Your Majesty, there is a way to treat the symptoms but not the root cause here, do you want to listen to it?" ”

Speaking of this, Li Er and Sun Simiao were both interested, so they turned their heads to look at Zhang Yi.

Zhang Yi said: "There is a way between heaven and earth, which is one thing descends to one thing, gold and wood, wood and earth, and earth and water.... The five elements restrain each other, and this locust, as a thing of time, naturally has a way to restrain each other. He said metaphorically: "Think of mice, although rampant and difficult to get rid of by manpower, but cats are precisely its natural enemies, usually farmers once they find that there are rats in the house, just raise cats."

And Xiao Chen thinks that chickens and ducks are good, especially when the locusts are not grown, if there are a certain number of chickens and ducks stocked in the field, it must have some effect, but this hair is a strategy to kill a thousand enemies and lose eight hundred, because chickens and ducks can eat locusts in addition to pecking crops! ”

"What if we were freed in the wild?" Li Er immediately thought of a plan that could reduce the loss.

After all, locust eggs are not only found in crops, there are also a large number of locust eggs in the wild, once hatched, it can be said that locusts are everywhere, and at that time, it does not matter whether the locusts are in the field or in the wild. The important thing is how to control the locusts so that they do not form swarms before the wings grow into the wings is what he thinks about now.

"Your Majesty is really as wise as a torch, and the minister is very impressed!" Zhang Yi hurriedly slapped a sycophant, and then hesitated: "This method is feasible, but Your Majesty, if you want to eliminate locusts, the number of chickens and ducks is probably not a small number, taking Chang'an as an example, I am afraid that the number required is not less than 10,000, such a large number is probably difficult to collect even if everyone gathers their strength, right?" ”

Although Zhang Yi only said two words, Li Er still heard Zhang Yi's words from them. Zhang Yi said that if he wants to solve the locusts in Chang'an, he needs no less than 10,000 chickens and ducks, in other words, with 10,000 chickens and ducks, he can solve this problem.

So Li Er immediately asked in surprise: "According to your meaning, if there are 10,000 chickens and ducks, you can relieve the locusts of Chang'an?" ”

"Your Majesty, in fact, the minister's method is very simple, that is, to organize these chickens and ducks, and let them catch locusts and eat them in a carpet area by area like grazing, so that it will be more efficient than scattered stocking. However, you also know that although this method is good, but our Datang territory is not small, even if this method is adopted, it is impossible to completely understand the locusts in the affected area, and it can only make the disaster play a certain reduction, so Xiaochen said that this is a way to treat the symptoms but not the root cause. ”

Although it can only reduce the locust plague, but not completely eliminate it, Li Er is also quite satisfied, and he doesn't know what his plans are, and after thinking about it for a while, he said to the two of them with a look of wisdom bead in his hand: "Then so be it, I will gather the ministers tomorrow to discuss this matter!" ”
