"Third uncle, didn't you say that you wanted to discuss the problem of drinking water in Zhuangzi with me in the afternoon?" After seeing the ceremony, Zhang Yi held the third uncle and said with a smile: "Otherwise, let's take a walk at will and see if it is more appropriate to take a well there?" ”

"Okay, this has to be done immediately, if it's too late, it won't work!" The third uncle hurriedly nodded, and then the two walked slowly towards the village. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The two walked very slowly, not because the sky was getting darker, but the road was really difficult to walk, if it was just Zhang Yi alone, it would be relatively simple, but after bringing a third uncle who was not good, the speed was not much faster than a snail.

When he walked for half a pillar of incense, the third uncle looked at the fireworks of Man Zhuangzi, then stopped, and asked Zhang Yi: "Sir, what are you looking for?" ”

As a person who has lived long enough, when he was in the house, he knew that Zhang Yi had something to say to him, and this matter should be very hidden.

"Third uncle, I have something I need to ask you to do here!" Zhang Yi arched his hands again and said to the third uncle sincerely: "This matter is very important, and it needs to be kept secret, you are an old man in Zhuangzi, and you are very familiar with everything in Zhuangzi, so I hope that the third uncle can help me!" ”

"Sir, what the hell is going on?" The third uncle immediately became serious.

"It's not going to happen, but I want to do some precautions first!"

"Yes! It's naturally good to keep a back hand, and the old man doesn't ask who the lord wants to guard against, but it's not easy for you to find the old man alone to see this matter! The third uncle hesitated for a moment, and his two eyeballs were particularly bright in the faint light, and said: "Since you can trust the old man, then you can say it, but if you think the old man can do it, you will tell it!" ”

Finding the third uncle is naturally the result of Zhang Yi's careful consideration, not because of old age, so such a person knows more about the hard-won happiness, because he is old, he knows everything in Zhuangzi better, or because he is old, he is more secure in doing things.

The most important thing is that if this matter is handled by the third uncle, unless Zhang Yi says it himself, no one will know!

Carefully took out a note from the pocket of his underwear, and then respectfully handed it to the third uncle.

"Third uncle, here is the recipe, and the pattern of making things, but this thing is very dangerous, if you don't pay attention to it, you will either die or be injured, so you must be careful when you get it!" Handing over the note to the third uncle, Zhang Yi was still a little uneasy, and told again: "If anyone dies because of this incident, Zhang will support his family for the rest of his life!" ”

"Really?" The third uncle.

"Guaranteed!" Zhang Yi said solemnly: "Whoever participates in this matter, Zhang Yi will not forget!" ”

......

May is on fire!

As everyone expected, manpower could not withstand natural disasters after all, and although the massive use of pesticides has eliminated most of the infestations, the land that has been eaten by insects has been turned into a devastated ruins.

People want to eat, and in order to survive, or to live selectively, countless people who see that there will be no more harvest this year have come out of their homes.

Save every grain for the hope of spring in the coming year!

This is the most simple wish in the hearts of every refugee, because they do not know how little food they have left at home, and whether they will survive the next green and yellow harvest after spending this year.

Now outside Chang'an City, soup soup has begun, using the method of adding grain powder and forage provided by Zhang Yi, although a bowl of gruel that is not dry or thin can not make people full, but it can definitely hang their lives.

Therefore, in the area of the city wall, as long as someone passes by, you can see many ragged people eagerly looking at the steaming iron pots under the porridge shed.

Li Shimin stood on the city wall, looking at everything below with a sad face.

"Your Majesty, it seems that it is not bad as we expected, the area affected by the disaster this time has fully affected the twenty-seven state capitals, according to the reports submitted by the state capitals, the situation is not optimistic!" Fang Xuanling looked at Li Er worriedly, took out a fold from his cuff and handed it to Li Er, and said, "This is the fold handed over by Sinong Temple yesterday, and it should have been presented to Your Majesty when it was in the morning today,..... Lao Chen and Du Xiang discussed it, so they were detained! ”

Li Er took the fold and looked at it, his face became even more gloomy, and he saw that the fold read: Twenty-seven affected state capitals, it is estimated that the autumn harvest will be less than thirty percent due to this locust plague!

Thirty percent of the grain ..... It's scary to think about!

This means that the food that has grown up has come to naught, and not only that, because of the loss of seventy percent of the grain, then this year's tax will definitely have to be greatly discounted, and the most important thing is that the people have less seventy percent of the food, which also means that so much grain must be removed from other places for the preserved fruit, otherwise the tragedy of thousands of miles of starvation will be staged again.

Of course, if only this result is acceptable to Li Er, but after years of natural and man-made disasters and the continuous provocations of foreign races, the entire Datang can be said to be shaking in the wind and rain, once the refugees are bewitched, it is foreseeable that there will be a great chaos in the world will be repeated.

"And there have been rumors among the people lately... Your Majesty..."Wei Zheng looked at Li Er, and stopped talking.

"What about me?" Li Er asked.

"Say.... His Majesty was not in the right position, killed his brother and imprisoned the emperor...... This plague of locusts is Heaven's punishment for your failure to cultivate virtue....."

Cheng Yanjin was the first to stand up, spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm on the ground, and scolded angrily: "I'm bah! Let me know that Lao Cheng is that bastard who is spreading rumors there, and Lao Tzu hacked him alive! Cheng Yanjin cursed and said to Li Er: "Your Majesty, it must be those guys in Shandong, you give me 2,000 soldiers and horses, and I will smash these and feed them to the dogs!" ”

Li Er naturally knew that Cheng Yanjin was talking about those people, but he was angry at the moment but had nowhere to vent.

Suppressing his anger, Li Er said: "Don't be angry, since I don't cultivate virtue, I should apologize to heaven and earth, but these people who have suffered from me!" ”

The eldest grandson Wuji also stood up at this time, and he naturally had a hundred supports for Li Er, and immediately said: "Your Majesty, don't blame yourself, natural disasters and man-made disasters are originally nonsense, those people are nothing more than disgusting Your Majesty, this time we have been prepared, although there are many places affected, but fortunately, pesticides were born, and I finally avoided the suffering of locust plagues after the Tang Dynasty."
