Li Er celebrated the New Year's Eve on the second year of Zhenguan, and all this was due to a memorial from Li Chunfeng before.

The locust plague is still the locust plague that swept the entire Guanzhong.

If he hadn't believed that he would not speak nonsense, Li Er even thought that this was someone with ulterior motives wanted to cause trouble.

The emergency recruitment of Changsun Wuji, Fang and Du, discussed for several days, but finally came to one conclusion, and it would rather be believed that they had than they did not.

However, it is easy to draw a conclusion, but how to solve this problem has become the key to making everyone scratch their heads.

It is definitely not possible to notify in advance, otherwise it will definitely cause panic among the people.

But it is not possible to not be cleared in advance, otherwise the locust plague will really start, and the entire Guanzhong particle will not be collected, and the people must blow up the temple. If they are provoked by those who are interested, it will be another big storm for the court.

After several days of discussion, Du Ruhui had some idea of ​​his inspiration. He put down the teacup he had just held up in his hand and said, "Your Majesty, do you still remember last year?"

"Last year?" Li Er's originally frowning frowned even tighter. There were a lot of things that happened last year, and he really didn't know what Du Ruhui was referring to.

However, Changsun Wuji was relatively clear-headed. When Du Ruhui mentioned it, he immediately showed a sudden expression: "Did Keming refer to the fact that the stinky brat in Li Wei's family bought locusts to raise pigs?"

"No," Du Ruhui nodded: "Your Majesty, the old man thinks this method is very good. If we can continue to implement it, we are all prepared regardless of whether the locust plague occurs."

Fang Xuanling's eyes lit up: "Ke Ming's words are reasonable. Your Majesty, I think this method is feasible."

Changsun Wuji also nodded and said, "It's not bad, this method is really good. If the locust plague does not occur, it is just a commercial act. If the locust plague really occurs, it can also turn the disaster from heaven into wealth from heaven."

Li Er is so smart. Even without Changsun Wuji's explanation, he could understand Du Ruhui's meaning. It was just that after the explanation of his wife and uncle, it became clearer.

"Haha, this boy from the Li Jing family, I don't know if he is lucky or something, but he accidentally thought of a solution to this disaster for me last year. Alas..." After sighing, Li Er began to miss the boy who had been away from Beijing for several months.

Du Ruhui and others naturally would not think that Li Hao had any foresight, but just thought that his way of purchasing locusts was just a mistake. After smiling and echoing for a few words, he felt relieved.

Just as he was about to congratulate Li Er, he saw that the emperor's face suddenly changed: "No, this is wrong."

"What's wrong? What's the point of Your Majesty?" Du Ruhui asked.

Li Er took a deep breath, smacked his lips and said, "Do you still remember that the incident of bird reproduction and reproduction because Duke Jiang impeached the stinky brat to acquire locusts? The court issued a strict order at that time, prohibiting the continued acquisition of locusts."

It seemed that this was true. Changsun Wuji and others looked at each other, and they saw the embarrassment in each other's eyes.

Damn Duke Jiang, what did you say that someone would collect some locusts and get in the way of you? A few birds died, so that you would not impeach others with great fanfare.

Now, the court issued a clear order to strictly order the lucky boy not to continue to buy locusts. Now that he has made a comeback, do you still want this face?

After waiting for a while, Changsun Wuji spoke, "If you want me to see, you don't need the person who tied the bell to untie it, it's better..."

Before Changsun Wuji finished speaking, Li Er had already made a decision: "Yes, come here, Mr. Chen Shuda, Duke of Xuanjiang."

Chen Shuda said that he was Li Yuan's minister and his relationship with Li Er was not so strong, so Li Er had no intention of helping him wipe his butt. When Changsun Wuji mentioned it, he thought of throwing this trouble to the unpopular old man.

By the way, Chen Shuda had just impeached Li Hao himself once during this period. He didn't expect that he would be on New Year's Eve. After the memorial was handed over, there was no news again.

According to his personality, there is no news to wait. Anyway, after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Li Er will definitely have an explanation after going to court.

Unexpectedly, his wife Wang was a little impatient. He kept scolding him for not taking himself seriously. His younger brother suffered such a great "wronged" with Li Jing's son, but he, the brother-in-law, turned a blind eye to him.

When Chen Shuda was really worried, the summoning in the palace made him feel relieved. Thinking that there was a result, he greeted his wife and followed the little eunuch who came to summon him out.

"What? Locust plague?" After rushing into the palace excitedly, Chen Shuda never expected that His Majesty the Emperor would speak such explosive news.

"Yes, this matter was said by the Grand Historian himself. I wonder if you have any suggestions." Li Er was kind-hearted, but he didn't come up and beat Chen Shuda to death with a stick, but gave him a buffer time.

Chen Shuda finally came back to his senses, and out of the instinct of a scholar, he said decisively: "Your Majesty, I don't say anything about strange powers and confusing gods. I think this matter should be false. I also ask Your Majesty to punish Li Chunfeng for his crime of confusing the public."

"Mr. Chen, it's a bit too much to deceive the public. If Li Chunfeng had no basis, he wouldn't report to His Majesty like this. Do you think so?" Changsun Wuji, as Li Er's brother-in-law, refuted Chen Shuda for his brother-in-law: "Besides, this kind of thing is related to the livelihood of hundreds of millions of people. Even if it is fake, we should rather believe it or not."

"This..." Chen Shuda hesitated for a moment, and finally shook his head and said, "It's because Chen doesn't believe it. It's because this kind of thing is too exaggerated and makes people have to be careful."

"Okay, don't argue for now." Li Er knew that even if his two ministers had been defensive for ten days and half a month, he could not make a decision. So he simply interrupted and beat them: "Chen Qing, I don't believe in the news sent by Li Chunfeng. It's just like Wuji said just now. It's about the people. We can't be prepared at all, right?"

"Your Majesty is saying this." Seeing that Li Er had said this, Chen Shuda could only accept it first and planned to admit it and ask about the matter before he could ask about the incident.

I didn't expect that he had just nodded. Before he could speak, Li Er continued to say: "Chen Qing, you know that such ambiguous thing is not suitable for public disclosure. Now that I have summoned you guys to come, I want to discuss a complete solution."

What could Chen Shuda say, he could only nod and echo: "Your Majesty's wise."

"Yeah." Li Er also felt that he had laid the groundwork almost the same. Seeing that Chen Shuda agreed with his opinion, he nodded and smiled and said, "Chen Aiqing, Wuji and others have made a decision after preliminary discussions, that is, to continue to acquire locusts. In this way, if the locust plague does not occur, it can be regarded as a commercial act. If it really happens, the people can also get a lot of compensation by catching locusts, and regard a sudden disaster from the sky as a sudden wealth from the sky. Chen Qing thinks this method?"

Chen Shuda: “…”.
