Every man is angry and blood splatters five steps.

The emperor is angry and is buried in a thousand miles away!

Li Er is an emperor, and he is a young and powerful emperor with lofty ambitions. Li Er is not angry, but his gloomy face makes the entire Tai Chi Palace shrouded in a layer of coldness.

"Your Majesty, it seems very unobjective according to the current situation!" Changsun Wuji said with a sad face: "This locust plague is much larger than we originally thought. There are signs of forty-eight prefectures in the Tang Dynasty. According to the report of the Prefecture, the second batch of locusts in some places have also hatched. Now in the fields and the fields, it looks like floating, and there are countless!"

Wei Zheng also said: "Yes, the larvae in Chang'an alone have already been in groups, and this year's disaster is inevitable. And now the food price has risen more than twice in previous years, even compared with the drought last year, it is even worse than that!

According to the old minister, we still need to discuss good strategies first to prepare for the time being!”

"Have you not seen the success of the chicken and duck food strategy some time ago?" Li Shimin looked at Wei Zheng, and there was already a sense of fear that was not easy to detect in his words, and asked, "Can local officials be perfunctory and failed to implement it?"

Wei Zheng sighed and said, "Your Majesty, although the food strategy of chickens and ducks is good, but... but large quantities of chickens and ducks cannot be gathered everywhere. Moreover, the locusts are too fierce today. There are dozens of them in the yizi area and they grow very fast. It takes time for the chickens and ducks to digest after they are full. As one goes up and down, it is a bit unsatisfactory!"

"That's true! Locusts in some places have grown wings, and it is even more difficult to catch chickens and ducks!" Changsun Wuji nodded heavily and said, "The worms in the ground have not been removed yet, and they are flying again and again, and they are constantly repeating. Both people and livestock are exhausted. It's still April, and the locusts are so rampant. If it's May or June... the old minister can't imagine it!"

Li Er looked at Fang Xuanling who was silent beside him and asked, "Does Fang Aiqing have any good plans?"

Hearing Li Er call him, Fang Xuanling stepped forward, thought about his words, and then said, "Your Majesty, since locust plague is inevitable, what the old minister thinks now is nothing more than how to save the people. We all know that there will be a major epidemic after the disaster. The two are linked together. Food for living and medicine for medical treatment must be prepared in advance. I beg Your Majesty that you must not open the warehouse and release grain unless you have to. The troops from all over the country must also stay in the city to prevent refugees from riots and causing trouble!"

.....

Li Er wanted to be popular very much. After Bing retreated, Changsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling, he kept wandering around the room. For the first time, he felt a deep sense of powerlessness about something that had not yet been born.

"Your Majesty!" Changsun came and looked at the irritable Li Er and asked, "Why are Your Majesty so worried? Could it be that something happened in the court?"

Seeing Changsun, Li Er's irritable heart was slightly extinguished, and he sighed and said, "Guanyin Maid, do you think I am the most incompetent emperor in history? Now the locust plague has already made me anxious. I heard Wuji say that the food price in Chang'an has soared by two or three times. The urgent report sent by the prefectures in various places also hopes that I can order the opening of warehouses to sell grain at a low price to lower the price of grain.

Even the strategy of sharing chickens and ducks that I am confident in is only able to alleviate the disaster... I just had a severe drought last year, and now it is a locust plague, and there is an epidemic next... I can't hold on!"

It is hard to imagine that Li Er would feel such a sense of powerlessness. Changsun was very clear. Only when Li Er was alone in front of him would he reveal his emotions without reservation. At this time, he was no longer a lofty emperor or a majestic general, but an ordinary man.

He also has sadness, helplessness, and helplessness... If it were just a simple disaster, perhaps Li Er would not have been like this at all. It was just because of the words, Huangquan Tianshu!

He had already been inappropriate in killing his brother and abandoning his father. Years of natural disasters pushed him to the end of the cliff, and some people who were interested made a big fuss about this, hoping to push Li Er down from the abyss through locust plague.

So now Li Er is attacked from all sides. Not only do he need to care about the locust plague, but he also needs to prevent the plague after the locust plague. Even the lord of the Tang Dynasty, Li Er is now willing but not capable!

"Didn't Your Majesty ask the Imperial Hospital Imperial Doctor and Sun Shenxian to develop pesticides? Why not summon Sun Shenxian immediately? Maybe there is another way?" Changsun couldn't bear it and suggested to look at the anxious Li Er.

"No! A secret report was reported yesterday that Twelve had already arrived, saying that the development there has reached its last moment. It is said that Master Sun and the Imperial Doctors have been resting day and night for several days. We cannot disturb them at this time." Li Er waved his hand, rejected Changsun's suggestion, and said in a low voice: "This may be my last hope. If the development is successful, it can solve the current urgent problem... If it is not successful..."

"Your Majesty must not be so discouraged. If you have something to do with Your Majesty, just stop him. Since Your Majesty cannot bear to disturb Sun Shenxian and the others' development, why not go to Zhangjiazhuang to have a light clothing? You haven't had a good rest these days. It's better to go out for a walk and change your mood than staying in the palace!" Changsun smiled, stretched out his hands to hold Li Er's arm, and said, "Besides, Pu'an's fief is in Jingyang. I have seen her during the Chinese New Year, and I don't know what's going on now. You, the father-in-law, should also go and see her!"

"Pu'an?" Li Er was stunned at first, as if he was familiar with the name. After thinking about it carefully, he recalled the daughter who was not outstanding in normal times.

In fact, it is no wonder that Li Er is naturally not short of women as an emperor. This woman has many children and is very prosperous. It is normal for two people who can't remember their names. Moreover, among his women, there are always some who stand out because of special circumstances. For example, Pu'an's mother is said to be an ordinary palace maid, and like most later TV series, Li Er drank too much... and then became Pu'an's mother.

Regardless of why Li Er drank too much that day, and no matter how hard Li Er worked that night, in short, the palace maid had no status, and the daughter she gave birth to had no status. If it weren't for the great His Majesty Li Er's sense of responsibility to be a father, he gave her the title of princess and a piece of land that was not big or small, I guess Pu'an should still suffer in the palace now.

Since Changsun mentioned it, Li Er decided to go out and take a look. After all, blood is thicker than water, and he still remembers that this daughter seemed to have promised her to someone...
