This year is a warm winter, and there has never been a serious heavy snowfall, the so-called Ruixue Mega Year, no heavy snow, naturally there will be no good year. The water slave has been unable to make the trip because he wants to build a snowman, and it is a pity that the child is forgetful, and he regrets it for a while and throws it away, and happily plays something else.

Except that there is no snow, there seems to be no change in Chang'an City, in fact, there are still changes. In Chang'an City, the walls of the fangs and the walls next to the doors were all plastered with fine mud by the craftsmen, and some knowledge of epidemic prevention was often written on them.

In Chang'an City, there are also more servants who beat gongs, singing and adapting the knowledge of epidemic prevention and disease to smooth the mouth, and walking the streets and alleys while beating gongs.

I knew it, I understood that this was a preparation for dealing with locust plagues and droughts after the beginning of spring, but I didn't know what it was, and I thought it was a new measure after the new emperor ascended the throne, and it was a concern for the people's living conditions, and it inadvertently became a moral policy of Xiao Li Shengren.

The people are still celebrating the New Year happily, and the ministers in the court, facing the winter where there is no snow, have a calm face, but their hearts are about to die!

There was a drought a year ago, and I was looking forward to a little snow in winter to moisten the dry earth, but God didn't give face, let alone rain, not a single snow fell, and it was almost expected that after the beginning of spring, there would be a drought.

Especially the confidants and ministers of Xiao Li Sheng, thinking of the dense insect eggs in the clods of soil that Xue Lang carried into the palace, they were even more sad, and they didn't even have a good New Year. There are those who are not far-sighted enough, and they can't help but complain in private, blaming Xue Lang for not having eyes-

Anyway, if there is a locust plague, it will be after the beginning of spring, so you can wait for the next year, so that everyone can have a safe year. As a result, this person was so upright (or stupid) that he poked it out before the New Year, and he was so tired that he was so tired that the saints and the ministers went down to the ministers, and none of them could have a good New Year! As a result, Xue Lang privately gained a reputation for "not knowing how to be flexible".

Princess Pingyang is in Chang'an City, although she is not so good at hand, but her sources are also extensive, so such rumors naturally can't be hidden from her. During the discussion with Han Jin, Han Jin talked about it.

Princess Pingyang said: "It's okay, Youyang's character is like this, and it is good to have an upright reputation." Isn't Wei Zheng, a former subordinate of the East Palace, now also a direct minister in front of Erlang? ”

Han Jin heard the song and knew the meaning of the princess, and knew the meaning of Her Royal Highness the princess, so he let it go, and when the time was right, he also added a fire appropriately, so when he was unconscious, Xue Lang's image became a gentleman's style, dedicated to the public, and loyal to the country, and strode forward all the way on the road of the famous ministers through the ages without looking back!

I never expected that!

Xue Lang didn't know about these rumors, and after the New Year, he was stationed in Zhuangzi-

There is no snow in winter, the eggs in the field are not frozen, the hatching rate will definitely increase, and I don't know how many locusts will be there by then! remembered the scene of the locust plague that I saw on TV in later generations, the dense locusts...... Xue Lang couldn't help but tremble a little, if it was a person with dense phobia, it was really a nightmare-level scene.

Anyone in Jingli who knows a little bit about the reason and the beginning, his eyes are fixed on Xue Lang's movements. No way, land is the foundation of the clan, the court attaches importance to agriculture from top to bottom, the royal family is concerned about the stability of the world, and the magnates are worried about this, after all, if there is no stable environment, everyone will not be able to live a good life! The second is for the continuation of the family, and only with land can there be roots.

So, seeing Xue Lang go out of Beijing to Zhuangzi, unconsciously, there were more people near Zhuangzi, all of whom were servants or stewards of various families, so I wanted to watch it closely, and see how Xue Lang did it.

Everyone who comes also knows the number of etiquette, they all know that they have brought gifts, and they come to meet them when they cross the Ming Road, and they don't have to be personally received by Xue Lang, just to inform them and take a number of courtesies. Regardless of whether the sense of smell is sensitive or not, everyone knows that no matter whether the locust plague can be passed or not, Xue Lang's meritorious service is already a sure thing, his wife Princess Pingyang is a princess who has made great contributions to the country, and he himself is angry, and his recovery is almost certain, not to mention, the locust plague still depends on his guidance, and the face and etiquette must be fulfilled, and it is good to have a good fate.

So, on the Zhuangzi, there were a lot of people gathered, fortunately, these people knew that they were conscious, and they prepared their own food, clothing, housing and transportation, so they didn't have to bother Xue Lang, and Xue Lang just let it go, and he didn't see it.

When his wife and daughter came to Zhuangzi to see him, she looked at the newly cut spring clothes on Her Royal Highness the princess, and there were more and more nymphs jumping around in the field. Xue Lang's expression froze, and with a wave of his big hand, the poultry specially prepared on the Zhuangzi was released out of the cage-

In the early stage, nymphs are small and can only be dealt with with by poultry, and artificial methods are not enough. Manpower is reserved to deal with adults who grow wings and can fly!

Xue Lang ordered someone to cut a white cloth almost a foot square, spread it on the green space, and after a while, a lot of nymphs fell, and they didn't need to be counted, just look at the density, Xue Lang's face was green!

"Your Majesty is here!"

"Huh?"

Xue Lang looked up, and saw Li Er, who was dressed in regular clothes, standing on the ridge and looking around, and there was no Ulala with a group of people, that is, several personal guards and eunuchs who served closely.

If you want to come to the field, you will inevitably stain your robe, Xue Lang is dressed in short brown at this time, although he is a little untidy, but he is also a practical demeanor.

Xiao Li looked at him like this, his heart was quite hot, here is Xue Lang Xue Youyang he knows, there are not too many vain things, he has always only known how to do things, he is pragmatic and upright, but such a person is actually quite a person who makes money. But it is such a person who can rest assured that the Ministry of Civil Affairs will be handed over to him. So, he silently strengthened his mind to recruit Xue Lang into the court.

"Minister Xue Lang visited Your Majesty, her appearance was untidy, and I asked Your Majesty to forgive me."

Xue Lang strode out of the field, inevitably stained with dust on his shoes. Li Er smiled kindly, waved his hand, and said, "No courtesy, Youyang has a heart for the country and the people, what is the crime?" Come, come, tell me quickly, what have you found in the field? Why lay a white cloth? ”

Xue Lang said: "Back to Your Majesty, the white cloth is one foot square, spread a piece, and roughly count how many locusts there are in the next foot!" The minister just saw it, and the situation is not optimistic! ”

As he spoke, he ordered someone to put away the white cloth, and directly wrapped a bag of nymphs over, and shook it casually, and there was a lump.

The brow couldn't help but condense. Li Er is also generally worried, but his temperament has always been resolute and tenacious, and he is not a person who is afraid of things, so he actually comforted Xue Lang: "Although I don't want locust plagues to damage the crops and grains, but the matter has come to this point, I can only do my best." ”

Xue Lang thought so, and said: "The minister thinks the same way, do his best, and obey the destiny of heaven." ”

For a while, the two monarchs and ministers felt a sense of confidant.
