All worlds start from leaves

Chapter 231 Locust plague
Concubine Lie, this is the title that King Li gave to that puppet beauty back then. There is no one who opposes it. Many people even feel that this title is too light and should be more solemn.

However, the king's decree has already been issued, and it cannot be changed overnight.

And with the passage of time, autumn finally arrived, and Baixin from all over the country began to accept some precocious dealers.

Li Ziji originally thought that this year would be the end of the year, hiding in the village to teach and educate people, and the title of Concubine Lie, who is loved by the world, can also give him a stable and long-term source of merit.But I never dreamed that the color of the whole sky changed in just one night.

The locusts all over the sky swept over more than 50 vassal states in the entire southern part of Dazhou overnight, and even rushed to the north.

It is conceivable that this is the revenge of the Dragon Clan, because the masters have not been able to gain an absolute advantage in the recent battle, so when the harvest of the people of the Human Race is approaching, they suddenly released a big move.

"My lord, this is an urgent matter, please make a decision early!"

Above the court hall, King Li drank a glass of fine wine and dreamed of life and death, while a group of scholar-bureaucrats continued to play memorials below.

It is not that there have been locust plagues in Dazhou before, but compared with this time, it is really nothing. In the past, the locust plagues were only a few vassal states.

But this time it was the Dragon Clan who played tricks, and the locusts spread to more than 50 vassal states in just one night. If there were no timely measures, this locust plague alone would weaken the Great Zhou Kingdom for several years.

At that time, everyone will not even have enough to eat, so how can they respond to the Dragon Clan?And the monster clan who took refuge in the dragon clan?

"King~!"

"Is this the time to drink and have fun? Wake up~!"

"Wake up?" Opening his slightly drunken eyes, King Li sneered and looked at a group of courtiers below.

"How will the king wake up?"

"Or, what should I do to make you happy?"

While speaking, the cold light in his eyes instantly made everyone below feel tense.

Ever since Concubine Lie passed away, King Li had no one to persuade him, and he was very bloodthirsty.

"Your Majesty!" Clenching his fists, with cold sweat breaking out on his head, Duke Zhao came out.

He is the last person Li Wang wants to see now, because every time Li Wang sees him, he will put his hand on the hilt of his sword.

And he has been a transparent person recently, rarely speaking.

But at this time, the country is in misfortune, and he has no room to escape.

"My lord! This world is yours, and you provoked the dragon clan. Can you really watch the dragon clan's plot succeed and the locusts eat up our people's food?"

"If that's the case, Your Majesty, are you still worthy of being your Majesty?"

Duke Zhao was so aggressive that King Li of Zhou even stood up at one point, pulling his sword halfway.

It's just that that day was here, the dying concubine was still begging him not to kill Zhao Gong, so holding the sword, Li Wang's veins bulged, but he still restrained his inner impulse.

"I know that the king wants to kill me, but because of the last wish of my concubine Lie, I kept letting me live."

Looking directly at King Li, Zhao Gong also went all out.

"But since I'm alive, I can't watch the king get drunk and dream of death every day, and watch the king abandon the whole country and ignore it!"

"Today I beg you to die, I only beg your majesty...wake up!!!"

While speaking, the saber around his waist was untied, and then he handed it to King Zhou Li who was standing above him respectfully.

Looking at the blue-yellow shining bronze sword, King Li stretched out his hand, and the murderous intent in his eyes became stronger and stronger.

"King~"

Seeing King Li's killing intent, a puppet beauty appeared from nowhere, holding a pot of food in his hand.

And seeing that puppet beauty, King Li's killing intent finally dissipated, and he threw the bronze sword to the ground with a cold snort.

It can be seen that Zhao Gong is already dripping with cold sweat.

Although he begged to die, it was not that he was not afraid of death. Everyone was afraid of death.

"Why is Concubine Ai here? Didn't you say that the sun is shining today, so you went out to relax?"

The matter of moving the capital is still going on, but it won't be finished in a few months. At this time, the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty is still in its old place, and there is really nothing to see.

With a charming smile, the beauty said: "The concubine did go out with my sister to relax, but when I left the palace, I found that it was full of tatters, so I came back because I was bored."

"Is it boring? Well, let's move the capital as soon as possible. After that time, we will have fun after we go to the new capital." Li Wang also responded dotingly.

After responding, he salivated and looked at the plate in the hand of the beauty.

Two beauties died in the last incident, and now there are two remaining, and one of these two has taken over the things that Concubine Lie read and read the memorial, and the other is the one in front of me, who makes delicacies for him in different ways every day .

"what?"

It's just that when he saw the food on the plate, Li Wang was puzzled.

"My concubine, what is this?"

As he spoke, he lifted one of the food on the plate and threw it into his mouth.

"Hmm~"

"Crispy yet tender, full of aftertaste, and a different kind of fragrance, not bad, really good!"

"Your Majesty! Now that the locusts are passing through the border, your Majesty still has the heart to eat these delicacies?"

I really couldn't stand it anymore, a scholar-bureaucrat walked out and pointed at King Li's nose and began to curse.

But King Li didn't care about it.

His heart has long since died, and now he is just a piece of rotten meat, and the accusations of this group of people are not in vain.

"My concubine, you haven't said what it is yet? Although it doesn't taste like the fluctuation of immortal energy and demon power, it tastes very good. You can prepare more in the future."

"This is what the king said, don't go back on your word." The beauty laughed.

"The lonely king keeps his word!"

"That's good," the beauty said with a smile as she sat beside King Li.

"My lord, this thing is a locust, is it delicious?"

"..."

The arena was silent.

Can locusts be eaten?
hiss~~~!

"Today, my concubine made fried locusts for the king, with a little salt sprinkled inside, and no other seasoning."

"However, I know personally that locusts are actually dried, then ground into powder, and mixed with flour or rice flour. Although it tastes not as delicious as fried, it is a rare nourishment."

"Even if you eat like this often, you can still make people strong and strong, which is not weaker than the effect of the beef and mutton of the solar eclipse."

"..."

It is still silent, so, is today's discussion necessary?
A group of doctors always felt uncomfortable, and they forced King Li for a long time, but in the end, a woman solved the problem without knowing whether it was intentional or unintentional?

"Mother, can locusts be eaten after drying the powder?"

Mr. Zhao still has a stronger heart to bear it, so he bowed down and asked.

"If it is used alone, it is often not good to eat, but at least it can live. If it is mixed with millet and other things to make noodles, it will be fine, and it is very nourishing."

"I got it~"

Bowing again, Mr. Zhao led a group of courtiers away, even King Li didn't want to pay attention.

At this time, the plague of locusts had already arisen. Since he didn't want to pay attention to King Li, he simply ignored it. Anyway, the plague of locusts was more important than etiquette, and others couldn't say anything about it.

"My concubine, you have a heart."

King Li was not stupid, he saw his concubine solve the problem for him, and hugged her affectionately.

Sighing in his heart, they were puppets born to earn merit for Li Ziji. Even though they were sentient, they really existed without heart and lungs.

According to Li Ziji's calculations, Da Zhou was bound to perish sooner or later.

"It's a trivial matter, the king can't praise his ministers and concubines, otherwise he will be proud."
