"Hmmm! There's some truth to what you kid said! The sudden rise in food prices is not a good thing for the people now! ”

Ying Zheng thought for a moment and nodded.

Food is the foundation of the people in the world, if the price rises due to the large purchase of grain by the imperial court, the people must have complaints in their hearts!

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is thoughtful, we are only thinking of ways to solve the locust plague, and we have forgotten about the price of food, we are negligent!"

Feng Qujian slapped his head with remorse.

"The continuous supply of food can only cure the symptoms, but not the root cause, and it is not the best way to solve the locust plague!"

Ying Feiyu stretched out a finger and kept shaking it, vetoing the previous thoughts of several people.

"Listen to what you kid says, is there a way to cure the root cause?"

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"That's nature!"

"Good! Then you kid also tell us, what is your solution to treat the symptoms and the root cause? ”

Ying Zheng's words were obviously unconvinced.

There is a locust plague, and it is overwhelming, even if this kid has any magical powers, it is impossible to control the locusts, right?

Besides, the locusts are thousands of miles away, and even if he really has any skills, he can't reach them for a while!

"One word! Eat! ”

"Eat?"

Hearing this, everyone was shocked.

They also thought that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince might have some magical powers, such as drinking to make locusts fly away.

But I just didn't think about it, eat!

Is this the solution?

"That...... Your Royal Highness the Prince, did I hear me wrong? When you say eating, do you mean who eats whom? ”

Kang Anping scratched his pumpkin-sized head, his face full of doubts.

"What? Kang Shangshu thinks that this prince is letting the locusts eat our army? ”

Ying Feiyu couldn't help but glance at him.

Thinking about it now, before Chun Yuyue said that his brain was not as big as Songzi, it was not a belittling at all, it was definitely a compliment.

According to him, this kid's brain is not as big as a sesame seed!

"That'...... Is it for the army to eat locusts? ”

Thinking of this, Kang Anping's brows furrowed even deeper.

Although food was scarce in their time, no one really ate locusts!

There are many fish and shrimp in the river, pheasants and hares in the mountains, who will worry about a few small insects?

Even when they saw locusts, the people were disgusted!

"That's right!"

Ying Feiyu nodded naturally.

received a positive answer, including Ying Zheng, and immediately frowned.

"Stinky boy, what are you doing? It's better to supply food to the imperial court and let the army fly away from the locusts! ”

"yes!"

Ying Zheng was the first to speak, and several other old guys nodded in agreement.

"Why wouldn't that be a good idea? The imperial court did not have to spend a lot of money to buy grain, and it would not have led to an increase in the price of grain, and the people complained! And it can also solve the locust plague in the shortest possible time, and at the same time it can also replenish protein for the soldiers and strengthen their bodies, which can be said to kill four birds with one stone, how can it be said that it is not a good way? ”

Ying Feiyu blinked his eyes and asked rhetorically.

"Protein supplements? What is protein? ”

Feng Qu frowned and asked.

But before Ying Feiyu could speak, Ying Zheng waved his hand and took over the words, "No matter what it is, you can't let the army eat locusts, isn't this a bad abuse of the army?" What else do you say to strengthen your body? It's good to not vomit and diarrhea after eating! ”

"Has my father ever eaten it?"

Ying Feiyu did not answer the rhetorical question.

"Does that need to be said?"

Ying Zheng directly gave him a roll of the eye.

As an emperor, the king of a country, he can't eat the delicacies of the mountains and the sea, how can he eat that kind of thing?

"Have those Shangshu ever eaten it?"

Then, Ying Feiyu turned his eyes to several other people.

"Ahem...... No, never! ”

The old ones also waved their hands again and again, and their heads shook like rattles.

Not only have they not eaten it, but they don't want to eat it either!

Isn't chicken, duck and fish meat fragrant?

Why do you have to eat that?

"Since everyone hasn't eaten it, how can you know that it doesn't taste good?"

Ying Feiyu glanced at everyone, beckoned Jingfu over, and said a few words in his ear.

Jing Fu frowned, as if he was a little timid, "His Royal Highness the Prince, this is ...... Will this work? ”

"Okay! Don't worry about it, the prince has something to do! ”

Ying Feiyu patted his chest and said.

However, Jingfu still didn't dare, and subconsciously looked at Yingzheng!

"Humph! What bad water are you holding on, boy? ”

Ying Zheng stood with his eyes and glanced at Ying Feiyu.

"What bad water can a son have? Didn't I think that my father and a few Shangshu had never tasted locusts, so I specially asked Jingfu to take someone to catch some, send them to the dining room, and blow up a plate for the big guy! ”

Ying Feiyu didn't hide it, and opened her mouth bluntly.

"What? Fried locusts? ”

"Vomit ......"

Thinking of those green, ugly-looking locusts, Yingzheng almost threw up.

Although the other veterans didn't react as much as him, their faces weren't good-looking!

"Okay, you kid better save it, that thing doesn't even eat the common people, you let me eat it? It's up to you kid to come up with it! ”

Ying Zheng immediately refused.

"Father, fried locusts are a delicacy in the world, you will know when you taste it!"

Ying Feiyu tried his best to persuade.

"You kid shut up, even if you say the flowers, I will never eat them!"

Yingzheng's attitude is very resolute.

"Old ...... The old minister won't eat it! ”

This time, the first person to refuse was Wang Ben, his father-in-law.

There is no way, but whenever he changes something, he can support it.

Can he eat locusts?

That's absolutely not going to do it!

"Yes, the minister doesn't eat either!"

"How can you eat that thing? We're not birds either! ”

"That's it! Don't eat, never eat ......! ”

The old goods spoke one after another, and their attitudes were very resolute.

"Good! It's going to blow up later, don't rob me of ......! ”

After Ying Feiyu finished speaking, he waved his hand towards Jingfu, "Go, according to the method that Prince Ben said, deal with it simply, fry it in a pan, sprinkle some sesame seeds and salt and bring it over, and Prince Ben will eat it himself!" ”

"Forehead ......"

Jingfu still didn't move, and looked at Yingzheng hesitantly.

"Go ahead! I want to see how he swallowed it! ”

Ying Zheng did not stop it.

Anyway, it's not to stuff locusts in his mouth, this kid can eat it if he wants!

"Yes!"

With Yingzheng's order, Jingfu turned around and ran out.

Greet two people at the door and catch locusts in the Imperial Garden!

This thing is not a rare species, it is everywhere in Daqin, and a few guards caught dozens of them after a while and sent them to the imperial dining room!

"Father, let me tell you! This locust has a very high nutritional value, and the nutrients in it are almost as rich as eggs! If it is made into dry powder, it is a good medicine ...... cure diseases! ”

Ying Feiyu explained in detail the role and practice of locusts.

But no matter what he says, the old ones still have that disgusted expression!

"You kid don't have to waste your tongue anymore, even if you say flowers, we can't eat them, let alone let the army eat them!"

Ying Zheng's attitude is very resolute.

"Good! Father, remember your words! ”

Ying Feiyu didn't bother to talk nonsense with them anymore, just wait for the locusts to explode, and they don't grab it!
