Chapter 237 Is It Really Not Edible to Eat?

Wang Zhuozhuo's face instantly blushed to the base of his neck, and Li Hui sat up directly and let out a huge roar.

"Your Majesty, why didn't you say anything when you came?"

Li Er slowly walked out from the side, patted the rain on his body, and looked at Li Hui, his tiger eyes were full of calculations.

"Hehe, Li Hui, I'm looking for you today, do you know what's going on?"

Li Hui shook his head, "Your Majesty, just say it directly, I'm not the kind of stingy person." ”

Li Er felt that his blood pressure would rise every time he listened to Li Hui, this kid was too impulsive to speak on the one hand, and on the other hand, he didn't care about the inner feelings of others, he was simply the most tasteless Hou Ye in the world.

But soon Li Er realized that he seemed to be like this, he was the emperor, and he still needed to take care of other people's faces?

"Ahem, Li Hui, having said that, I think it's better for you to make something to eat first."

There are a lot of types of food in Li Hui's house, and today's pig intestine also appeared, and when the red intestine appeared in front of Li Er, Li Er was unmoved.

But the throat that stirs from time to time has betrayed Li Er's heart, this is to say no, the body is very honest.

"Your Majesty, why don't you call a few princes to eat together."

Li Hui doesn't have compassion, after a few little guys come over, as soon as the words appear in their mouths, then the future of Hubu Shangshu Gaoliang ends here, and it is a good thing to be able to live.

Although he knew that the three princes might have ingredients to add oil and vinegar, they must have been rebellious.

Li Er nodded, and had already begun to move his big elbow.

When people are upset, there are many ways to vent, and Li Hui can see that Li Er's way to vent is to eat.

In the palace, the craftsmanship in the imperial chef's hands seemed to be unable to satisfy Li Er's appetite.

After those palace maids who had studied in Li Hui's house for a long time went back, the cooking skills they showed one by one always made Li Er feel that it was not very authentic.

In Li Hui's place, Li Er is like an ordinary middle-aged man who has taken off the emperor's coat.

He also has the troubles that those middle-aged men in later generations have.

Li Er also has the worries of middle-aged men in later generations.

The difference is that the family problem that Li Er is worried about is not the problem of his family, but the problem of the whole world.

When he became an emperor, especially an emperor in the feudal era, the whole world was his own home.

The three princes had only come over for a long time, and Li Er had already eaten and drunk enough, with a smile of satisfaction on his face.

"Li Hui, I have a problem now."

Li Er said in a muffled voice while wiping his hands.

Li Hui smiled, Li Er's questions were nothing more than some problems in the court, which could fool the past.

If Li Hui is asked to solve the problem, such as the problem of the black market, Li Hui is not impossible to solve.

"Your Majesty, what is it?"

"Hehe, what else could it be, locust!"

Li Er got up and looked at the sky outside, the drizzle was falling, the water droplets on the eaves were ticking, and he was worried and worried.

"Your Majesty, the chickens, ducks and geese I raise can share some of them, but locusts are a large-scale disaster after all, and this year's Datang still has to hope that the farmers will move on their own."

Of course, Li Er understands this truth, the chickens, ducks and geese cultivated by Li Hui are now being distributed, and those officials are all derelict in their duties, not using them well, and they are all slaughtered to eat and drink, and they don't realize the seriousness of the problem at all.

Qin Tianjian has played three times in a row, reminding Li Er to formulate policies as soon as possible to deal with this year's locust plague.

"Say, 'Can the locusts eat it?'" Li Er asked suddenly.

Li Hui squirted out a mouthful of water, locusts are such a thing, they can't be eaten.

If you can eat it, you still need to open a super farmhouse?

The cost of the super farmhouse is not low, and although the effect is good, it cannot stand the large population and vast area of the land in China.

Even if it is cultivated continuously for one or two months, it cannot cover all farmers and people.

The damage caused by this year's locust plague will be enormous, but it would be nice to minimize it.

Is Li Er a brain watt, how did he think of eating locusts?

What ordinary chickens, ducks and geese dare not eat, people still dare to eat?

That thing is poisonous!

"What? Locusts can't be eaten? ”

"Your Majesty, locusts are poisonous." Li Hui sighed, "To be precise, the poison of locusts is not self-contained, but a chemical reaction, I have told the three princes about this, so it is better to let them tell you." ”

The three little guys who were eating and drinking on the side immediately sat upright, the greasy on their faces didn't have time to wipe off, and they muttered in their mouths that the meat hadn't been swallowed yet.

Li Chengqian and Li Tai looked at Li Ke, after all, he liked chemistry the most.

"Father, the locusts are like this, the locusts alone, there is no toxin in the body, if you catch it, of course you can eat it, chickens, ducks and geese can eat it, and people will be disgusted for a while if they eat it."

"But those swarms of locusts, there is an enzyme in the body, once it encounters a crisis, it will quickly spread throughout the locust swarm, all the individuals in the locust swarm, will secrete a toxin, people will eat it, they will be poisoned, animals will eat it, they will also foam at the mouth."

Li Er frowned, "That means you can't eat it?" ”

Li Ke couldn't answer this, and Li Tai on the side suddenly said: "Father, teacher, is there a way to get rid of that toxin?" ”

Li Chengqian was the most steady, and slowly echoed at this time: "In fact, if eating locusts is a helpless way, the thing is dirty and disgusting when you look at it." Which enzyme produces the toxin that is the key? ”

Li Er was confused, but he understood the conclusion, that is, the swarms of locusts can't eat, and if they want to eat, they have to find a way to solve the toxins in the locusts' bodies.

Li Hui sighed at this time, "Your Majesty, if you have read the information about those people on the grassland, you will find that when the locust plague on the grassland comes every year, the animals that feed on locusts do not eat locusts very much, such as larks. ”

"You know, that lark is the natural enemy of locusts, how can you let the locust swarm fly by and not have food in your mouth?"

"A few drops of rain can be used by people, but when the flood hits, people are not blessed, and this is the reason for locusts and locust plagues."

Li Er finally couldn't suppress the depression in his heart at this time, the time when the locust plague appeared was too palastatic, and it happened to appear in the most promising year of the rise of Datang, this year, all kinds of grain and vegetables cultivated by Li Hui will be widely planted in Datang, and in the third year of Zhenguan, the people of Datang will no longer lack food, vegetables and various seeds, this year is so critical, but it is facing a huge locust plague.

As a monarch, he was indeed in a hurry.

"There's really no way?"

Li Hui shrugged, this thing has been a problem from ancient times to future generations, and the fall of the Tang Dynasty has something to do with the locust plague, who can guarantee that it will be eradicated?
