"There are also many locusts in the royal garden."

Li Er opened the conversation box, and his expression was faint and dignified. Xue Lang was not surprised. There was water and grass in the imperial garden. It was not surprising that there were locusts.

Xue Lang said: "when the locust disaster broke out, the area was wide and the damage was great. After all, it could fly. There would be locusts naturally because of the lush vegetation in the palace."

After that, he paused and asked, "Your Majesty, how is the drought in Guanzhong?"

When it comes to drought, Xiao Li can't help frowning. As long as the whole body and mind are focused on the locust disaster, there is hope to overcome it No one can do anything except the gods.

Li Er's expression was heavy and said, "I'd like to invite the eminent monk to open an altar to pray for rain in Chang'an."

Xue Lang doesn't speak any more. He can't say it. Although he was no longer a staunch atheist because of his passing through, he did not think much of feudal superstitious activities such as praying for rain and offering sacrifices to heaven. He always believed that God helps those who help themselves. Therefore, in the end, Xue Lang only said one sentence: "may God feel your Majesty's sincerity and let your Majesty's wishes come true."

Li Er was silent for a moment, and then asked about the management of the locust disaster. This Xue Lang has been staying for many days. He has a plan in mind. Naturally, he answers like a stream. He thinks of the drought in Guanzhong and says: "if the drought is serious and the hungry people are everywhere, we can encourage people to catch more locusts, dry them and grind them into powder. We can steam them with chestnut rice noodles, and we can also have a full stomach. At that time, the two complement each other, and there may be a miracle. "

Xiao Li is a very smart and pragmatic person, smell speech immediately said: "I will send people to the countryside to promote."

Xue Lang intuitively thinks that there is some estrangement between him and Li Er. Even if he had not been in good condition with his royal highness, he was still in charge of his superiors. Some words could also tell the princess of Pingyang calmly because he instinctively felt that his royal highness could understand and trust. Now with Li Er I don't feel like that, not to mention the harmony with the princess's zither.

The plague of locusts is related to the people's livelihood in the world. Xue Lang can't ignore it, and he has other plans in mind. Therefore, they have the courage to put the information up to the best of personnel. Fortunately, Li Er was not the one who abolished the public for his own sake. Now Li Er is very complacent and ready to do a big job.

Xue long also wants to understand that the princess's highness is stuck between building and Li two, and the two have never had the urge to rush back.

's Royal Highness's strategy and vision can be regarded as a rare woman. It's almost instinctive to judge the situation. In troubled times, she would lead the army with a woman's body. With the collapse of rites and music in troubled times, everyone is busy living and fighting for territory. Occasionally, a few guys are gossiping, which is not a big problem. After the establishment of the new dynasty and the establishment of the state system, it was difficult for Princess Pingyang to hold on to her power. If she was not a woman, with her merits, she would not be reduced to guarding the pass. Even if the pass was Weize pass, there would not be a princess to guard it. It's nothing more than women's body. The leaders are under pressure and can't compete for more favorable positions and more soldiers.

In the original history, when the princess of Pingyang died, Gaozu wanted to bury it with military ceremony. There were also too many people who objected to it. According to the etiquette and law, women did not advocate. It was Gao Zu who suppressed the princess on the ground that she was different from other women. Otherwise, if she met a soft egg, let alone military funeral, it would be difficult to be grand. The etiquette and law are the basis of maintaining the feudal society. Occasionally, the scholars will turn a blind eye to it if they want to control power all the time as difficult as to climb up to the sky. Princess

's ambition is to take account of Li Er's siblings. He doesn't want to see two brothers and sisters in the future. Such a thought, Xue Lang, in addition to distressed Princess Royal, is willing to give up the free day, come out to fight. Just as he knew that there was going to be a plague of locusts and droughts, it was most appropriate for him to come back. Moreover, it can do something for the common people all over the world. It's good to have the best of both worlds! Great!

Xue Lang always remembers his father's instruction. His father said that in a family, no matter what the husband and wife do for the sake of the family and exert their efforts in one place, the family will prosper and will not fall.

Xue Lang and Princess Pingyang are husband and wife. The princess retreats bravely, not only for themselves, but also for their small family. Xue Lang understands and is willing to support her decision. Since Princess Royal can no longer be placed in the court, he can do it, anyway, one family.

After thinking about it for a long time, I thought the locust disaster was an opportunity for him to enter the dynasty. As for what kind of official position he could get, Xue Lang didn't care too much. He didn't worry about it.

After the Spring Festival, as long as you go to the fields for a walk, as long as there are green places, there will be a string of insects, all locusts. In Guanzhong, because of the drought this year, the winter wheat harvest is almost extinct. In this wave of spring ploughing, there are quite a lot of sweet potatoes.

As long as you pay attention to observation, you can find that chickens and ducks can wake up a lot of insects when they are in the field. Such a scene, but anyone who has a little heart can see that the locust disaster is about to happen!

After all, there are fewer chickens and ducks in Beijing. Not to mention the fields of ordinary people, but only the fields of high-ranking officials and nobles are calculated in hectare. Looking at such a large area, the number of chickens and ducks is still insufficient. Fortunately, the advantages of chickens and ducks are continuous and can be kept in captivity.For a day, the imperial warden chose a lucky place in Chang'an City, built a high platform, and asked the eminent monks to pray for rain on the platform. Li Er led all officials to attend.

Xue Lang didn't go. He was not an official yet. At home, he moved a small bench and sat under the porch eaves with his chin in his hands, waiting for the rain.

Princess Pingyang was still a little heavy. Looking at him like this, she couldn't help laughing and asked, "you're acting like this What do you mean? "

Xue Lang said: "I have never seen praying for rain. This is the first time in my life! Er Is it really going to rain when you finish it? "

Princess Pingyang came out of the hall, stood beside Xue Lang, looked up at the sky, squinted at the sky, and said, "is the meaning of heaven visible to ordinary people? It's just hope that sincerity can move heaven. "

Xue Lang nodded and didn't talk about the practice. This is also a kind of good wish, isn't it?

However, after the ceremony, it rained in other places except Guanzhong, which was still dry, and the locusts grew bigger and bigger. Then a few days later, news came from the Palace -

today's sage, his majesty Li Er, felt the drought and locust plague. He ate the locusts raw in the palace and spoke his way. The people eat the grain, but you eat it, rather eat my heart!
