Chapter 215: Ask the ministers to eat the locusts

The next morning, it was up.

The ministers walked into the early court one after another, walked into the main hall, and then stood in the main hall according to the official rank, waiting for the arrival of the new and consistent morning tide.

As a minister who entered the court.

These ministers have already learned one thing, that is, the Great Qin Empire is suffering from a locust plague at this time.

A large number of locusts are wreaking havoc in the Great Qin Empire.

Therefore, in today's early court, all the ministers were very careful, for fear of provoking the anger of Ying Zheng, and at this moment Ying Zheng suddenly walked in from a distance, and then walked to the dragon chair and sat down.

"The ministers must already know about the locust plague, right?"

Sitting on the dragon chair to win the Zheng Dynasty, the ministers opened their mouths to ask, the ministers nodded, and then said to Ying Zheng in unison.

"Your Majesty, this locust is now wreaking havoc on my Great Qin, and now our ministers are doing their best to find ways to deal with the scourge of this locust, but unfortunately there has never been any strategy for controlling locusts throughout the ages, so I can only be helpless......"

The helpless voices of the ministers reached the ears of Ying Zheng, and Ying Zheng laughed, and said to Prime Minister Li Si a few times.

"Do you hear that? These ministers, they will talk about this! ”

After finishing speaking, Ying Zheng waved his hand and said to the ministers in front of him.

"Don't worry, I've already figured out a way for this locust plague, but before I did it, I had something I wanted to give you something to eat!"

"Your Majesty wants to give me something to eat?"

For a moment, the ministers were a little surprised.

But there isn't much to do, for the simple reason that as the emperor, he usually gives his ministers some food.

This is also a relatively common thing, and although it is rare for Win Politics to do this, it is also possible.

At this moment, many ministers are pondering in their hearts.

pondering the food produced in the imperial dining room of the Great Qin Empire.

Or snacks and other foods.

It must be delicious, right?

Just when the ministers were speculating in their hearts.

Ying Zheng waved his big hand and then outside the hall, one-on-one pairs of eunuchs walked into the hall one after another, and then only saw these eunuchs, each holding a tray, with more than a dozen small bowls in the tray, and then walked to the minister's side.

Distribute dishes and chopsticks to these ministers.

Food in a small bowl.

When these Manchu civil and military ministers were seen in their eyes, all the ministers were stunned in unison.

The reason is simple, because the food in this tray is so special, it is not a serious food, but a locust that looks like it is steaming you to the extreme.

And these locusts have not been treated much, they are just caught and cleaned, and then they are steamed in a steamer.

There are no complicated condiments added to it, at most just some salt.

You can imagine how unpalatable this thing is, and for a while, all the ministers couldn't help frowning and looked at Ying Zheng on the dragon chair.

"Do you know what this thing is?"

At this time, Ying Zheng took a small bowl, and then opened his mouth to ask the ministers.

"The ministers naturally know that the contents of this bowl are nothing else, it is the locusts that are now raging all over my Great Qin!"

For a while, the ministers opened their mouths to say to Ying Zheng, who nodded with satisfaction, and then said to the ministers.

"Now that you know it's a locust, do you know what to do with it?"

"I don't know very well!"

For a while, the ministers shook their heads, but Ying Zheng stood up and said to the ministers with the locusts in the bowl.

"There are three ways to deal with these locusts that are raging all over the world!"

"The first way is to burn the locusts in transit with fire, the second way is to eat, so that the people of the world can eat locusts, so that you can save food and eliminate locusts, and the third way is to find a way to dig out the locust eggs buried in the ground, and then clean them up, so that the locusts will not become a big tool!"

Winning Zheng's voice fell, and the ministers reacted at this time, it turned out that Winning Zheng was going to let them eat locusts, and the ministers frowned a little for a while.

The heart says that this locust will not be poisonous, right?

At this time, Ying Zheng continued to open his mouth and say.

"Burning locusts with fire, or finding insect eggs and cleaning up insect eggs, these things don't need to be done, and you don't need to wait for these civil and military officials to do it, but this eating locusts is within your ability, and now you are waiting, for officials and officials, all you eat is the money handed in by the people, and naturally you can do your best to do things for the people, and this locust and others can also taste it!"

When the voice of Win Zheng fell, the ministers' scalps were numb, and some people who were proficient in medical science even stood up.

Holding the locust in front of Ying Zheng, he said earnestly.

"Your Majesty, this locust is poisonous, how can you eat it? Your Majesty's golden body is definitely not allowed to taste this thing! ”

Well, this minister is smart, he does not dare to say that he does not want to eat locusts.

Well, how could he say that? Ying Zheng himself ate it all.

He's a minister, if he doesn't eat it, what is it?

Is there still a winning government in that eye?

What will be the consequences?

Losing office and going to ministry is small.

If you win politics seriously, you may even click it off with a knife.

Under such circumstances, how dare this minister say that he does not eat? So he could only lead the conversation to the locusts themselves, saying that the locusts were poisonous.

And so it goes.

There is no need to eat to win the government, and these of them are ministers.

You don't have to eat locusts either.

I have to say that this minister is very smart, but after hearing his voice, Ying Zheng let out a sneer, and only heard Ying Zheng say disdainfully.

"Locusts are poisonous, why don't I know so much? I ate a lot of locusts yesterday, but now I am not well? What is poisonous or not, do you think I can't guess your mind? ”

"Wechen don't dare, Wechen don't dare!"

Hearing that Ying Zheng had already eaten locusts, the minister's face changed dramatically in an instant.

I couldn't help but exclaim in my heart.

Your Majesty has already eaten.

That means that they can no longer fool the winning government, and can only eat it hard.

And Ying Zheng didn't want to talk nonsense with these big things, he waved his hand and ordered.

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, this locust is like fire, the locust plague is now raging in my Great Qin, instead of empty talk, it is better to eat more locusts, you Aiqing let's eat!"

Saying that, he picked up the bowl, held the chopsticks in his hand, and then brought up a few locusts in the bowl and filled them into his mouth, chewed and swallowed them into his stomach.

With such an example of winning the government, the ministers naturally did not dare to slack off in the slightest, even if they didn't want to eat, they could only bite the bullet and eat the locust into their stomachs.

Half an hour has passed.

Only then did the ministers on the field eat the locusts little by little without reluctance.

And in the process.

Winning Zheng sent a large number of eunuchs to patrol back and forth.
