The prince's plan failed completely, and the disaster situation in Henan and other places became more and more serious.

I heard that there were countless starvations, and the names of the people were boring, and they complained about the court.

Although the peasant uprising was quickly suppressed by the imperial court, the suffering of the people also touched the hearts of many people.

Song Yi is even more so, he didn't expect all his worries to come true.

The occurrence of locust plagues in Henan and other places is a law to follow, and this is a natural disaster.

But using quicklime to cure locusts is a man-made disaster.

Originally, Song Yi thought that there would be capable people in the court who would definitely be able to come up with a good way to deal with locusts.

I didn't expect it to turn out like this.

Just when Song Yi was worried.

One day, the true king Zhu Xi called Song Yi to the study.

Song Yi had some conjectures in his heart, the summoning of the prince must be related to the locust plague.

In fact, it is.

In the study, Zhu Xi sat in front of the rosewood carved cloud dragon pattern desk, with books and tea sets on the table.

Song Yi walked into the study, and there were already many officials and guests in the room.

It turned out that the matter in the pavilion of the palace that day had already been informed by well-informed people.

I even knew that there was a dexterous girl in the real king's mansion, and she had predicted that there would be an insect plague that day.

The true king Zhu Xi knew that he couldn't hide it, and he didn't think about stopping it.

So, after discussing with his subordinates, he called Song Yi and inquired in person.

Song Yi entered the house, and everyone in the house was neatly aligned and looked back.

I saw a handsome girl with shaved shoulders and a thin waist, tall and tall, looking forward to Shenfei.

It's not what I imagined, and I don't have three heads and six arms, which is different from ordinary people.

Song Yi stepped forward to salute Zhu Xi.

Zhu Xi nodded, and then introduced Song Yi to the adults in the room.

"Everyone, this is Song Yi's girl in this palace."

"Song Yi, locust plagues in Henan and other places are everywhere, and the people are living hard. Although the imperial court has tried its best to relieve the disaster, it is still a drop in the bucket, and far water cannot quench the thirst of the near. Ladies and gentlemen, you know that you know a little about the dangers of locusts, and you have come to your door to solve it. If you really have a cure for insects, you should know everything."

After Zhu Xi finished speaking, all the ranks in the room got up to ask, and Corporal was quite polite.

Song Yi was also very worried in the face of such a cautious matter.

"The slave maid is just a woman, and she knows very little about the major affairs of the DPRK and China. It was just a casual mention that day, but now that the adults rely on it like this, it makes the slave ......"

Song Yi hesitated, the situation was out of control.

On that day, she only thought that there was a high probability that there would be a locust plague following her when water and drought alternated, so she didn't think much about it and said it.

Now that Henan and other places have been flooded with locusts, coupled with the prince's bad policies, it has made matters worse.

If she comes out again, will she catch fire?

Moreover, no one in the court has a good plan, but she can have a way to cure insects. Isn't this a slap in the face of the entire court?

Song Yi's concerns are not unreasonable.

Zhu Xi also saw her worry from Song Yi's desire to speak again and again.

Zhu Xi did not force Song Yi to make a plan, on the contrary, regardless of the anxiety of others, the old god was drinking tea in a cup.

The ministers in the house are all human spirits, and they stopped listening to Song Yi's words, knowing what she was worried about. But the people of Henan can't wait, and if they wait for one more day, they will suffer one more day.

This time, the prince and the party first rose and then suppressed, and the two princes and one feather watched on the wall.

It is only the people who suffer!

They are all old ministers in the court, and they are also neutral forces in the court, and they are even more likely to look forward to the real king, and never get involved in the dispute between the prince and the second prince.

Among them, there are benevolent people with a glimmer of hope, and implore Song Yi to say, "Girl, the matter is very important, the people are suffering, and I also ask the girl to speak up, if there is a way to cure insects, it is also for the court to solve problems and seek benefits for the people." ”

Then, the crowd embraced.

Song Yi also has a heart of concern for the people, the nymph plague is not dealt with quickly, and the cultivation is delayed, and when winter comes, I don't know how many people will die.

Song Yi's heart wandered, thinking again and again, and finally gritted his teeth, determined to give it a go for the people.

also finally said, "All the adults are the pillars of the country, the slaves and maids are soft-spoken and clumsy, if the words are wrong, please also ask the adults Haihan"

"The slave and maid have read from ancient books and magazines that wherever water and drought alternate, locusts will be a plague. The locusts have hatched and become flying insects, flying with the wind, and can cross thousands of mountains and rivers. If it is not treated in time, it will definitely endanger the surrounding cities. When the time comes, there will be starvation on the road, and it will only become purgatory on earth."

"The girl is right"

Everyone in the room nodded their heads like pounded garlic and responded.

Song Yi was full of confidence in his heart, sorted out his thoughts, and continued.

"When the slave heard about the prince's law, she asked people to bury lime in the soil to kill insects. Although lime has the effect of killing insects, it is also deeply poisonous to the farmer's land, which is a way to quench thirst by drinking water, which is really a policy. Now that the land has been damaged, we have to find a way to separate the lime from the soil and restore the vitality of the farmland."

"Again, for adult locusts, we need to think of ways to 'combine treatment and eradicate locust infestation'."

"The girl is smart, but I don't know what the girl said about 'reform' and 'treatment'?"

One of them asked, and the crowd next to him led the way.

Song Yi didn't feel that the person asking was abrupt, but because he became the center of everyone, he was a little excited.

Song Yi, with Zhu Xi's encouragement, said, "The combination of reform and treatment is the simultaneous prevention and eradication." The so-called prevention and control, of course, is divided into jurisdictions, and responsibility is assigned to the post, and it is not allowed to pass the buck. With regard to locusts in their respective jurisdictions, officials in their jurisdictions should mobilize the people to discover, cull and prevent locusts as soon as possible. ”

"The so-called reform refers to changing the conditions for locust breeding. The source of locust plague is generally river beaches, siltation deltas, and coastal saline-alkali lands along rivers and lakes. These areas are waterlogged during the rainy season and exposed during the drought, making them suitable for locusts to lay eggs. The grasses that grow are food for locusts. In these areas, water conservancy should be repaired, and land should be cultivated and turned into fields, and flying insects should be planted and vegetation should not be liked. Only by making flying insects have no food to eat can they avoid the regeneration of insect infestations. ”

Song Yi talked eloquently, and everyone around clapped his hands.

Zhu Xi listened to what Song Yi said, his heart was shocked, and he was even more secretive about Song Yi's eyes.

Xiao Hei was on the side, his mouth wide open, with an expression of disbelief and incomparably adoring.

Song Yi's words made the people around him think that they had obtained a method, and they were all anxious and wanted to report to the court as soon as possible.

But Song Yi did not agree, "Ladies and gentlemen, what the slave and maid just said are all theories, not good prescriptions." It is necessary to mobilize the strength of the country to control the locust plague. In addition to these, it is also necessary to provide instructions that can be easily operated. And the specific method still needs to be thought about by the slave."

When everyone heard this, their confidence in Song Yi became bigger and bigger.

didn't urge, but it made Song Yi think immediately.

Song Yi had no choice, couldn't think of a way to shirk it, and only wrote down the various methods in his mind one by one.

When Song Yi stopped writing, everyone around him praised him.

"This is the best way to treat insects. I can't think of such a clever plan. Girl, what wisdom! ”

Song Yi was praised by others, and he was a little embarrassed, waving his hand again and again, not daring to take the credit of his ancestors.

But in his heart, he was very useful, and he not only helped the real king, but also helped the people in Henan and other places.

These methods are just plans formed by her borrowing from the wisdom of her predecessors and slightly modifying them.

But if she can really help the people, she is also willing to take on the responsibility of selling her reputation and reputation.

Although there are traces of Song Yi's method of dedication, the imperial court is also very cautious this time.

The emperor asked people to study it carefully, and only after there was no harm did he issue a decree to control locusts everywhere according to the new method of insect control.

Just under Song Yi's anxiety, more than a month later, the new decree has been effective in Henan and other places where locust disasters are great.

Good news has come from Henan and other places, and the locust damage is being contained.

Because of Song Yi's "cooking" guide, the people cooked the captured adults into delicious food, which reduced the pressure on the food caused by the insect plague and greatly reduced the number of people starving to death.

At this point, the entire Qianying Dynasty knew that there was a goddess in the palace of the true king.

Song Yi's reputation is beginning to appear.
