At the beginning, he will be divided by five horses of Tang Taizong

"My son doesn't dare!" Eldest Sun Chong immediately hesitated, "My son just thinks that this official is quite good now, not tired, and there is no need to go abroad for some experience and come back and be transferred to another position."

"You..."

Changsun Wuji's face turned even paler when he heard the words. His son, at best, had no ambitions, but at worst, he did not seek to make progress and was heartless.

"I didn't say to let you go out of the capital to practice, but to let you go to Princess Gaoyang's mansion during this time to walk around more."

"What do you mean? Go and walk with those two idiots, Fang Yiai?" Chang Sun Chong was stunned for a moment, staring at Chang Sun Wuji in amazement, wondering why his father would say such nonsense?

"It's not Fang Yiai, it's..." Changsun Wuji blushed when he said this

"Actually, it's a long story. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it, let alone you!"

"You are in the secretary's prison. You should have heard about the incident that His Majesty sent Hongling's envoy to the grassland and the Yellow River Road a few days ago?"

"I know about this, the locust plague on the grassland and the flood in the Yellow River!"

"Then do you know why His Majesty sent the Hongling envoy?"

"Huh?" Chang Sun Chong stood up suddenly, his eyes were as bright as lights, "Father, do you know?"

This incident has been spread in various ministries of the imperial court, and no one has figured it out until now. Some people think that His Majesty has a great talent, and some say that His Majesty has an expert behind him. Now hearing what my father said, I feel like my whole body is soaked in chicken blood average.

He looked at his father with burning eyes.

Changsun Wuji asked Changsun Chong to sit down, "Not only do I know this, I also know how the court's disaster relief food was raised, and you know the Benxin Food Store, which has been booming recently, right? Do you know the real owner behind it?" Who is it again?"

Changsun Wuji paused for a moment, then quietly said, "Princess Gaoyang's Mansion!"

"..."

Chang Sun Chong's eyes widened in astonishment, as if he had been struck by lightning

The mouth is opened wide enough to fit a whole fist into it.

"Father, do you mean that everything behind this is not His Majesty? It's... Princess Gaoyang's Mansion? But... how much Fang Yi's love is, can I not know?"

They are also descendants of loyal officials of the imperial court, who doesn't know whom?

Changsun Wuji didn't want to say it, but after thinking about it, Changsun Chong would know about it sooner or later, so he gritted his teeth and said, "It's not Fang Yiai, it's someone else!"

"Another person? Father, what do you mean by that..."

Before he finished speaking, Changsun Wuji came to his senses.

What the hell!

Crazy?

Such a big thunder?

It's shocking!

Then... Your Majesty knows about this!

Didn't kill him with a knife?

Changsun Wuji ignored Changsun Chong's astonishment, and continued: "A few days ago, His Majesty and I met this man in Princess Gaoyang's mansion. This man's talent is rare in the world."

"It was he who predicted the plague of locusts on the grassland and the flooding of the Yellow River half a month in advance. At this time, when he was drinking and chatting, he mentioned the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal to transport grain..."

Changsun Wuji talked about a series of problems when he met Qin Shou that day, how the food and grass were not moved, marketing went first, and how to raise relief food.

The eldest grandson was stunned, like a piece of wood, he just stood there in a daze.

for a while

hiss!

Chang Sun Chong took a deep breath, but the huge waves in his heart couldn't calm down no matter what.

"Father...is there really such a person in this world?"

Changsun Wuji looked at the distant sky with deep eyes, and said with emotion: "If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I definitely wouldn't believe it."

"The point is, this is not all. He still has many amazing things in his hand, such as fine salt, seasoning, fine wine, and what is called a glass... But although these things are good, he doesn't don't want them to show up"

"The reason why I asked you to go to Princess Gaoyang's mansion this time is to let you learn all these things secretly, and then...do you know what it means?"

"This is His Majesty's intention!"

"Gudu!"

Changsun swallowed dryly, at this moment he was completely speechless, and the shock in his heart could not be added.

This amount of information is too much, the shocking brain is like a pile of paste, and it is impossible to react

This......

It turned out that all of this was written by him, no wonder the three provinces and six departments are now like headless chickens, and they can't figure out the way.

Shocking, too shocking!

"Then the current identity of this person..."

Before he finished speaking, Changsun Wuji interrupted him, "You just need to know about this, don't ask, His Majesty has his own arrangements."

He thought for a while, and suddenly said to Changsun Chong: "That's right...don't take Princess Changle with you when you go to Princess Gaoyang's mansion."

"Huh? Why?" Chang Sun Chong asked in surprise.

"No reason, this person is very evil, our eldest grandson's family has to guard against it!"

"..." Chang Sun Chong couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

What to guard against, it goes without saying!

......

At this time, under the selling of major grain merchants, grain prices have come down.

Just when those big food households were glad that they didn't throw all the food in their hands

Qin Shou did the opposite, raising the price of the "Benxin" grain store online, and at the same time making people hoard grain in private.

Because he understands that the current low food price is only temporary.

It’s okay to put it in a good year, but now that the grasslands in the north of the Tang Dynasty are suffering from disasters and the Yellow River is flooded, it is certain that the Tang Dynasty will be short of food this year, and the government’s disaster relief food has directly used millions of stones of relief food, and the real surplus food is even less .

As time goes on, the price of food will inevitably rebound.

This is determined by supply and demand

Hoarding food requires a lot of cash, so he asked Gao Yang to invite his father-in-law and uncle over for dinner!

The faces of Li Shimin and Changsun Wu who rushed over were a little dark.

"Now that the price is so low, are you hoarding food?"

Qin Shou: "Will food prices rise?

"..." Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji wanted to give him a face.

sister!

Fudge after flick.....

"How much more?"

"No matter how you say it, it will cost hundreds of thousands of pens!"

"so much?"

Seeing Qin Shou's extremely serious face, Li Shimin and Changsun Wuji's faces turned green.

Although Li Shimin is also the emperor, the emperor is also short of money these days!

Not to mention Changsun Chong, although he is the prime minister and has some money in his hand, how can he have so much?

"..."

just then

A man from Baiqisi suddenly ran in outside the door, with a flustered expression, he kept looking towards Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin.

Seeing this, Li Shimin's face suddenly became gloomy. He had told Yun Rui not to enter for anything serious, and Yun Rui was sent to transport food.

Really ignorant!

At this moment, Changsun Wuji hurriedly stood up and said to Qin Shou, "Well...I'm going to the latrine"

Qin Shou was a little surprised, but he didn't think too much about it, "Old uncle, can't it be that your crap got out of the way?"

"go away!"

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Li Shimin also said: "I will also go to the latrine."

immediately

Baiqisi came in front of Li Shimin, and was about to kneel down to answer, but Li Shimin got up and kicked him, "Why kneel? Didn't I tell you not to come in?"

The man panicked and said: "Your Majesty, Hong Ling hastened to play!"

Li Er quickly picked it up when he heard the words, and when he opened it, his body froze suddenly, and his face turned pale immediately.

"The resurgence of the locust plague is heading straight for Chang'an!"

......

Chapter 29: Not looking for you!

At this time, the people hundreds of miles away from Chang'an were sitting at home eating, but suddenly found something falling down.

They couldn't help but look towards the sky, their faces turned pale all of a sudden.

I saw something dark like a black cloud pressing over the sky, making a buzzing sound.

Soon, something fell again.

But this time when it fell, it was like rain, falling with a rush.

"It's... locusts!"

"My God, why are there so many locusts?"

"This day has been covered by locusts. This will not give us ordinary people a way to survive!"

"The seedlings that have just grown in the ground..."

An old farmer exclaimed, with fear from the heart in his tone.

In their memory, once locusts appear, it means no harvest, not to mention so many locusts...

Then they watched helplessly as the locusts landed on the crops, and the crops began to creak.

Not only those crops, as long as they are green, no matter the vegetation will be eaten up quickly.

Even those plants that cattle and sheep did not eat in the past have been gnawed out one by one.

An old farmer put down the bowl in his hand and ran desperately into his field, but when he arrived, all he saw were bare poles.

"It's over, it's over!"

"This year's harvest is all over..."

"Woooo..."

The seven-foot-tall man began to cry, and soon there was a lot of crying.

Originally, the rations of the farmers' families depended entirely on the ground, and they had to rely on the sky to eat. The four seasons can produce a bumper harvest. If the four seasons are reversed, there may be no harvest and starvation. The locusts crossed the border and even ate up the leaves and grass leaves. It is true that there is no way to survive!

......

Hall of Tai Chi

Li Shimin, who hastily returned from Princess Gaoyang's mansion, summoned his ministers again.

The resurgence of the locust plague, and the news of approaching Chang'an caused an uproar in the court, and all the military officials were shocked

When it comes to locust plagues, everyone is terrified.

Li Shimin's eyes were extremely anxious.

Locust outbreaks are extremely likely to cause peasant uprisings, and there have been countless of them throughout the ages.

What's more, the grassland and the Yellow River have already attracted disasters, so Li Shimin is also very concerned about the locusts.
