Chapter 031: Locust Plague
He Ying encouraged: "Don't be humble. Say it. β
Sang Yan said: "Everything has natural enemies. One thing descends one thing. This locust also has natural enemies, such as chickens, ducks and geese, and the courtiers heard that tens of thousands of poultry are kept in captivity in Shanglin Yuan, so they may have a try. β
"You can really give it a try."
Tao Qin, a member of the household department, spoke up first: "But the road is long, and when the poultry is transported to Wuzhou, I am afraid that all the crops will be wiped out." β
Sang Yan listened to it and hurriedly added: "Then collect poultry from the surrounding areas of Wuzhou." Poultry in lieu of taxes. β
"Falsehood!"
Qu Zhi objected violently: "There has never been such a precedent!" Your Majesty, you must not allow a woman to confuse the public with such a gossip! β
and changed the topic: "Your Majesty, Sang Kun concealed the locust plague and did not report it, resulting in the destruction of farmland in the eight cities of Wuzhou, the crime is unforgivable, and the method that his daughter came up with is even more laborious and costly, and his heart can be punished!" β
His henchman Cai Yuan then echoed: "What Master Qu said is reasonable. β
Cai Yuan is in the degree of the branch, involved in the supervisor, planning the state expenses.
"Tens of thousands of poultry don't necessarily solve the locust plague. There is already a shortage of food in the cities of Wuzhou, where can so many poultry be collected? The girl of the Sang family wants to solve the locust plague with her mouth, which is really ridiculous! β
"Enough!"
He Ying couldn't hear anyone say that Sang Yan was not, and maintained: "Her method is ridiculous, what about your method?" I've been kneeling here for two hours, and I'm still not awake? Get out of here! β
The ministers remained on their knees.
He Ying was not used to it, and shouted: "Someone! Drag them all out! If you want to kneel, get away and kneel! β
"The emperor thinks twice."
"The emperor must not be bewitched by the demon girl!"
"Your Majestyβ"
The guards rushed in, looking to drag them all outβ
Sang Yan spoke: "Your Majesty, the courtier's words are not finished yet. β
As he spoke, he didn't wait for him to speak, and continued: "Ministers, there are indeed many omissions in the foolish views of the courtiers, but the locust plague cannot be left alone. Not only do they plague this year's crops, they are also extremely fertile, and the eggs they lay can also harm the next year's crops. And using poultry to exterminate locusts, they not only eat locusts, but also eat locust eggs, although it is a remedy, but it can avoid the harm of locust plague in the coming year. Ladies and gentlemen, we must not only look at the present, but also look at the long term. β
They were stunned by these words.
No one spoke anymore.
He Ying waved his hand, motioned for the guards to stand back, and ordered, "Go and pass Sang Kun over." β
When Sang Kun came over, the ministers seemed to abandon their previous suspicions and began to work together to solve the problem of poultry and locust extermination.
Sang Yan also said a few ways, such as cooperating with businessmen to buy poultry, such as transporting poultry by land and sea, such as poultry safety and health issues.
It was a good three hours of discussion.
From time to time, the minister's stomach growled.
Sang Yan's stomach is also barking.
Fortunately, in the midst of a cooing, it is not so obvious.
But she was thin-skinned, and she was still embarrassed and blushing.
He Ying saw it, temporarily stopped, and let people pass the meal.
The ministers were hungry for a long time, and when they went to the side hall next to the imperial dining room to eat, they all ran, for fear that they would be late and have no food to eat.
Sang Yan also wanted to run, but was called.
"You stay, eat with me."
His words startled several officials who were one step behind.
Among them is Sangkun.
"Mulberry has given birth to a good daughter!"
Out of the imperial study, Tao Qin, a member of the household department, sighed, envy and jealousy in his words.
Sang Kun listened to it with a happy smile, but his voice was very low-key: "Oh, children and grandchildren have their own children and grandchildren." β
He had just come out of prison, but he was in good spirits and well-dressed, and he was obviously very comfortable in prison.
And if you commit a crime and go to prison, you can still be so comfortable, it is impossible without the emperor's instructions.
"Sell women for glory!"
Qu Zhi looked at his arrogant appearance, and his teeth itched with jealousy: "Sang Kun, don't be happy too early!" You pray that your daughter will be the emperor, otherwise, just wait for the nine clans! β
When Sang Kun heard this, he was still a little uneasy in his heart, but the old god on his face was there, and he smiled lightly: "Lord Qu is cautious." β
"What? Dare to do it or are you afraid of what others say? In order to ascend to the throne, send the widow and child of Kefu to the palace-"
"Master Quβ"
Cai Yuan pulled the sleeves of his curved clothes and persuaded in a low voice: "The daughter of the Sang family is not a concubine yet, and the emperor didn't say anything about giving her a name, so it's not in a hurry." This harem, and the queen mother is watching. β
Qu Zhi thought about it, it was this reason, and finally with a smile on his face, he hummed: "Innocent women also want to enter the palace, I want to see how long you can laugh!" β
These words pierced Sang Kun's heart.
The smile on his face gradually condensed, and his eyes gradually became a little worried.
"San-sama, hurry up."
There was an official in front of him who turned back to call him.
ββ¦β¦ Good. β
He smirked and looked back at the closed study.
In the Imperial Study
He Ying was eating, looked at the person opposite and frowned, and asked, "What are you thinking?" β
Sang Yan shook his head: "I didn't think about anything." β
"Didn't think about anything, what are you frowning about?"
After he asked, he smiled dotingly and quipped: "If you want to embarrass me, I will let you embarrass me, aren't you happy?" β
He's talking about the almost gambling problem.
When Sang Yan mentioned this, he pursed his lips and sneered: "What are you happy about?" In the end, I don't want to enter the palace to beg you. β
He Ying chuckled, his tone was innocent: "This is not my intention. You can't blame me. β
Sang Yan: "......"
All right.
It's really no wonder he is.
It's the original owner's father's fault!
She hasn't done anything with the emperor yet, and the original owner's father dares to make such a mistake, and he doesn't dare to think that if she is really with the emperor, what will he do!
The family that has always favored the concubine will swell because of the favorite concubine!
In order to prevent a greater disaster, she put down her chopsticks, knelt down, and said seriously: "Father is at fault." The emperor should be punished. Otherwise, it will be difficult to convince the public. β
He Ying didn't expect that she would ask herself to punish her father, and after being stunned, she smiled and said, "You are fair." However, it's just a small thing, nothing. And you have atoned for your father's sins. β
Sang Yan disagreed, and insisted: "The embankment of a thousand miles collapsed in the anthill." Your Majesty, don't indulge in evil as small. β
"Alright. I know it. β
He actually hoped that Sang Kun would make some mistakes and give him a chance to love Wu and Wu.
Look, wouldn't that know her better?
The more you know, the more you like it.
He admired her fairness and sobriety, but hoped that she could be selfish.
"Get up."
He looked at her and whispered, "If your father hears these words, I don't know how much I will hurt his heart." β
Sang Yan: "......"
Inexplicably, I feel like a peerless son-in-law, what's going on?
The Dog Emperor is teasing her again!
Hum!
She retorted: "Your Majesty, you are kidnapped by family affection. Moreover, I did not harm him, but loved him, so that he would make fewer mistakes. β
She didn't want to be used as an umbrella to consume the emperor's favor again and again.
Wait-
Maybe you can try the Zuojing route?
