"Any condition can be discussed! You go and ask those clans, what conditions do they have. ”

Li Shimin stared at Xiao Yu.

Gentleman Gate Valve.

I've never dealt with them.

But this time, Datang really can't hold on.

Xiao Yu narrowed her eyes and hurriedly got up.

"Your Majesty, no one knows how much food they have in their hands, but the minister thinks that it must not be much, after all, many clans have suffered a huge loss before, and now they should be a little unable to make ends meet."

"But! Your Majesty, even so, the minister is still willing to go! ”

"The minister went to beg them, after all, the people come first, coupled with His Majesty's sincerity, the minister feels that they will definitely understand the Tang Dynasty, your Majesty, and the court, squeeze it, and get through this locust plague together, it is not difficult!"

Xiao Yu said quickly.

His face pretended to be extremely difficult, extremely desperate.

But!

In the bottom of my heart, I was really completely happy.

He never expected that God had given the clan such a good opportunity.

Seemingly.

In the loss of Great Yan, there is a place to make up for it.

There is also the so-called second imperial examination of the Tang Dynasty, which can also take advantage of this opportunity and directly cut it alive.

The food is in their hands!

They have radical initiative.

Li Shimin has to agree to some conditions if he doesn't agree.

Li Shimin looked at him and nodded.

"Then....hard work Xiao Siqing."

"Let's go."

Li Shimin waved his hand and urged.

Xiao Yu hurriedly went.

"Your Majesty, the scholars are the gate lords, this time I'm afraid the lion will open his mouth, do we really ask them?"

Du Ruhui looked at Xiao Yu's back, with unwillingness in his eyes.

He was actually preparing to retire during this time, but now that the locust plague is coming, Du Ruhui plans to wait until this time is spent before mentioning it.

Li Shimin took a deep breath.

For a long time, he shook his head.

"Otherwise, what else can we do?"

"Bad luck, the right time, the right place, and the right people are all in the hands of the world."

"Hey....this locust plague, it doesn't come early, it doesn't come late, why do you come at this time, the sky is long, why is it thinner than me."

Li Shimin fell on the stool.

Du Ru was silent.

"This time, Guannei Dao, Youzhou and even Qingzhou are all going to be affected, I, other places are not worried, only Qingzhou and Youzhou."

"If you don't handle it well, it's going to be a big mess."

Li Shimin looked at the deep dark night outside the Taiji Palace in a daze, and the whole person was a little distracted and helpless.

For a while, there was silence in the Taiji Palace.

The next day, early in the morning.

Locusts.

It's already very close to Chang'an.

Even, there are scattered locusts that have fallen into Chang'an.

Meanwhile.

In the palace.

Li Shimin took Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Jing and others to stand in front of Taiji Palace.

They looked up at the sky.

Today, the weather is good.

The early autumn is always so high and refreshing, the clouds are light and the wind is clear, the blue sky, the beauty is not like the world, like a painting.

But.

Such a beautiful painting, but very out of place, from time to time a few black dots flew by.

This is the vanguard of the locust swarm.

It's like a little breakfast before a storm hits.

This night.

Li Shimin took them to the Taiji Palace, sat all night, and discussed all night.

Although there is no clue,

But....they couldn't sleep at all.

Everyone's breathing is rapid.

Everyone's eyes were blood-red.

Everyone's chest is also bursting.

All they can do now is to wait, wait for the locust plague to happen, and watch the locust plague appear.

Otherwise, what else could they do?

.

….….…….….….

Changan.

It's messed up.

Cry.

Call.

Scolding.

And the swarm of locusts, the buzz of flying past.

This one burst.

If you look down from the sky, Chang'an City seems to be swallowed by a black cloud.

A family.

The wife and daughter were hiding in the room.

The man of this family, with a broom in his hand, stood in the courtyard, like a god of war, trying to destroy these invaders.

"Damn it, my crops!"

",! Don't eat my crops! ”

"Ahh

"Lord Locust, our whole family, young and old, is counting on the crops to live, ahhhh Locusts, are you really afraid of you? Give me death, death! ”

“…….”

The man in the courtyard seemed to be enchanted.

The broom in his hand kept beating, and locusts kept dying in his hands.

However, it is a drop in the bucket.

The man cried and laughed.

At last.

After exhausting all his strength, he was paralyzed on the ground, watching the locusts eat and gnaw all the vegetables planted in the yard.

The man was extremely embarrassed.

After all, the locusts did not stay in Chang'an, after all, there were no crops in Chang'an, and after two or three hours, the locusts had already rushed towards Youzhou and Qingzhou.

The man was mixed up and down, all green juice.

This is the blood of locusts.

In the yard, it's a mess.

The man lost his soul.

The door opened at this time.

"Woo woo, daddy, daddy!"

"Daddy, are you alright?"

The children and his wife rushed out, scared and frightened, and hugged the man worriedly.

The man exhaled heavily,

He looked at his wife and daughter in his arms and stood up with difficulty.

"Stand there, don't go out yet."

"I....I'll go out to see, the locust plague is coming, there should be a place to put food in the imperial court, I'm going late, I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up."

The man calmed the two and walked out.

.

….….…….….….

Inside Chang'an City.

It's chaotic.

Suzaku Street is even more crowded.

In front of the gate of the imperial city, the major grain shops in Chang'an are all people.

But?

Without any accidents, the gates of the imperial city were closed, and the doors of the major grain shops were also closed.

"Damn the locust plague, it's over! This is over, and there is only half a bag of rice left in my family, but my family has so many mouths, what can I do! ”

"Damn, you still have rice, but my family has nothing, who knew that the locust plague would come, if I knew it, I would have stockpiled food early!"

"This group of grain merchants who gave birth to children without assholes, last year's disaster, they closed the door early, and raised the price crazily, now the damn, hahaha, they are just going to force us to death!"

"Hahaha, now you want to buy their food? I want to eat it! Have you heard? Just a few months ago, the clan gate valve was pitted by the Great Yan, adding up to tens of millions, it is estimated that they will be happy, this group of guys, will definitely take the opportunity to earn back all the money lost! ”

"I've heard about it, too, these damn things, what to do? The imperial court has not yet said anything! ”

"Nine times out of ten, there is no food in the imperial court, it was difficult enough for the imperial court last year, and this year there was a locust plague just after the autumn harvest, damn it!"

"Hey, in fact, think about our Guannei Dao, it's better, we're in Chang'an, at least we won't starve to death, but Youzhou and Qingzhou, I'm afraid it's over, it's all over!"

"Yes, let's be hungry for a few days at most, but not to death, but it's really over there, I don't know what Your Majesty is going to do."

"The people over there are really miserable."

"Who's to say it's not? Not to mention, thinking about Youzhou and Qingzhou, I feel better in my heart. ”

“…….”

The people of Chang'an stood on the streets, hoping to find a way.

Disorderly!

Disorderly!

Disorderly!

The current Chang'an is completely out of order.

There are even robberies and thefts in many places.

Under the catastrophe, all kinds of things have emerged.

.

…….….….….….

Shaw House.

Xiao Yu was comfortably eating roast mutton.

Juice at hand, glass after glass.

After he came back from the imperial city last night, he washed and fell asleep.

This is not?

Just woke up!

Then he ordered his subordinates to serve roast mutton and juice, and enjoyed it very comfortably.

As for going to the clan to consult.

There is no hurry.

What's the hurry?

Now, we're just getting started.

If you want to talk about this matter, why do you have to wait for ten days and half a month, so that the court will make the people all anxious, and the clan can come forward, only in this way can the benefits be truly maximized.

"Master, Pei Sikong and the head of the Fan Yang Lu family, the head of the Lu family, are here."

At this time, the housekeeper respectfully reported.

"Oh? Let them in. ”

Xiao Yu got up to greet him.

Pei Lin and the head of the Lu family were directly carried to the door in a sedan chair.

Although the locusts have passed, the subordinates of the Xiao Mansion have begun to clean up, but they have not been cleaned yet, and the road is full of locusts.

Pei Lin and the head of the Lu family will naturally not land.

Pei Lin and the head of the Lu family got down from the sedan chair and went directly to the door.

"Oh, Pei Sikong, the head of the Lu family, hahaha...."

"The two of them have ruddy faces, this is a thorough cultivation, congratulations, congratulations! Hurry up, come in, and taste my roast mutton together! ”

Xiao Yu laughed and invited the two out.

Isn't it?

Pei Lin and the head of the Lu family are really full of spring breeze now.

The way he was dying before is completely gone.

Actually, it's true.

Two or three days ago, they were both lying in bed, but when they heard that the locust plague was coming, they jumped straight out of bed.

Full of strength.

Immensely excited and excited!

Better than the best doctors in Chang'an City.

"Okay, Xiao Siqing, this smells fragrant!"

"Hahaha, Xiao Siqing, I don't know what Your Majesty can say?"

The two sat down, and after eating two bites of mutton, they asked directly.

Xiao Yu narrowed her eyes and told her what happened last night.

"Really? Okay, well, I didn't expect that Admiral Tiance would take the initiative to come to us this time. ”

"That being the case, this time our clan is going to gnaw a piece of meat from the court!"

When Pei Lin heard this, he was even more excited.

"Yes, there is also this imperial examination, just taking this opportunity to cancel Admiral Tiance, in this way, I want to see what those scholars are like, hahaha! In the past few days, the poor scholars in the city have become a little active. ”

"One by one, I really thought I was going to take the high school imperial examination."

The head of the Lu family nodded again and again.

Xiao Yu was not in a hurry, and helped the two of them serve a big bowl of meat.

"The two heads of the family are talking about extremely."

"But we don't have a rush on this matter, I think I'll talk about it in a few days."

Pei Lin nodded: "Yes, yes, Xiao Siqing is right, now we are not in a hurry, what are we in a hurry?" It is he Li Shimin who should be in a hurry, and when the time comes, when he begs us, everything will be up to us! ”

"Hahaha, Miao Miaomiao, it's really a clever plan, Xiao Siqing, come on, drink! Let's drink! ”

"This roast mutton is really delicious, no matter what, let Li Shimin dry it first, and then wait for them to be in a hurry, hahaha!"

"Xiao Siqing, come, I respect you! Everyone! ”

“…….”

in the room.

Incomparably enjoyable.

Push the cup and change the lamp.

Good wine, come up.

Dim sum, too.

There are other good dishes, all of which are also coming up one by one.

The three of them were excited and in a good mood.

….….….….….….

Imperial.

Li Shimin sat on the steps decadently.

He looked at everything in front of him, and his whole person was as petrified as a chicken.

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Jing and others were also numb.

"Your Majesty, cheer up! Now our top priority is to think about how to provide disaster relief! ”

"Here, Your Majesty, the old ministers can hear the shouts of the people of Chang'an, we can't sit still."

Fang Xuanling said weakly.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the people of Chang'an Guannei Dao, as well as the people of Youzhou Qingzhou, are waiting for Your Majesty, let's take action."

Du Ruhui also said.

Li Shimin looked up at the two of them in a daze, and nodded, but now he only felt numb, he just wanted to sleep, and he didn't want to care about anything.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"

But at this time, Li Junxian walked up quickly.

Every step of the way.

will trample a lot of locusts to death, burst out a large amount of juice, crackling, and the sound is not small.

"Something's wrong, Your Majesty! Border Emergency! ”

Li Junxian's eyes were anxious.

Li Shimin was dazed with fear: "The Turks....The Turks are coming again?" ”

Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Li Jing and others are also staring at Li Junxian.

Li Junxian sighed: "Yes, Your Majesty, not only the Turks, but even Da Yan has sent troops. ”

Rumble!!

As soon as these words came out, it was like five thunderbolts.

Li Shimin only felt that he was about to lose his breath.

Take advantage of your illness to kill you.

Great Yan and Turkic, this trick makes it wonderful!

"Turkic, he dares to break the covenant!"

Li Jing's eyes were scarlet.

Li Junxian said: "He hasn't attacked yet, according to the urgent report, Da Yan and the Turks have laid heavy troops, near the border, and their intentions are unknown." ”

Li Jing said angrily: "This juncture is arranging troops, isn't it just to come over and do something, damn Turk!" How dare he!! ”

Li Jing hated the Turks even more.

And Li Shimin is even more afraid of the Great Yan.

He saw with his own eyes how Da Yan was bloodless, and forced Datang to this step by step.

Compared to the simple-minded Turks and Jieli Khan, it is obvious that the Great Yan is even more terrifying.

"Da Yan, Da Yan, they want to go south? Are they going to attack my Datang? ”

Li Shimin couldn't help but say.

I can't believe it.

In this embattled situation, dare to take the initiative to attack?

Really....so arrogant?

Why are they!!

Is it just the tens of millions that you have obtained?

But when they attack the Tang Dynasty, aren't they afraid that Goguryeo Silla and other countries will stab them in the back in the near future?
