And it was led by Ying Zheng, who has always been wise, which made it even more difficult for Wang Jian to understand.

And Li Si was also taken aback, looking at Ying Zheng with even more doubts, "Your Majesty, are you right? Just for a mere dream, you want to take us to the land of Lingnan?"

"The journey is so long, if we waste time, it will delay a lot of things!"

Li Si naturally maintained his opposition to this unreliable statement.

Among other things, there is an emperor, a prime minister, and a general among them.

It deals with major national affairs every day, and it is of vital importance to Daqin.

Especially Ying Zheng, who is already very busy because of his many affairs, if he is delayed because of this matter now, he will be even busier later.

Knowing Li Si's concerns, Ying Zheng didn't mean to blame him, but said indifferently: "Go and see, if you don't have anything, just come back!"

"Speaking of it, it's just the price of hard work, and I didn't suffer a lot. Moreover, this matter is worth trying."

Hearing this, Wang Jian couldn't help but clasped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I also feel that it's not appropriate for so many ministers to go with me just because of a dream. Please think again."

Ying Zheng was not angry, but just sighed softly, "In that case, let's vote."

Li Si nodded and stood up first, "This minister refuses."

Ying Zheng gave him a quiet look, "I agree."

Then Wang Jian just wanted to speak, but was interrupted directly by Ying Zheng, "Wang Jian, you don't need to say anything."

Wang Jian was taken aback, and looked at Ying Zheng with a puzzled expression, "Why?"

Ying Zheng said lightly, "The widow is the emperor and has one vote to decide."

Li Si:. . . .

Wang Jian:. . . .

Zhao Gao: "Your Majesty is wise!"

Faced with this statement, Li Si's expression was a little strange, "Then what are you talking about voting decisions, Your Majesty, just go directly."

Ying Zheng looked a little aggrieved, "Isn't this a little bit of a sense of participation for you, my widow?"

Li Si fell silent.

Wang Jian looked slightly aggrieved, "But the old minister has no sense of participation at all..."

Now that the decision was made, Ying Zheng didn't waste much time, and directly ordered, "Let's go! The land of Lingnan!"

After the words fell, a group of guards began to prepare.

Soon, a group of people all stepped into the carriage and marched towards the land of Lingnan.

Chapter 93 Let the Prime Minister Eat That Pile of Withered Grass

Although the distance is long, the speed of the royal carriage is not limited.

After a while of turbulence, Ying Zheng opened the curtain and looked at it. At a glance, it was a flat field with cracks everywhere.

"parking."

Ying Zheng gave an order, and the coachman stopped the carriage quickly.

Then Ying Zheng got out of the carriage, and Li Si, Wang Jian and others also got out of the carriage.

When he came to the edge of the cracked field, Ying Zheng raised his eyes slightly and then fell to the field in the distance.

When Li Si saw this barren scene, his brows became even deeper, "Your Majesty, you don't mean to say that there are treasures here, do you?"

Ying Zheng's expression was flat, "It doesn't look like there is a treasure here?"

Wang Jian said lightly, "It looks like there is a curse here."

Ying Zheng frowned, "As a general of Daqin, how can you believe in such illusory things?"

Wang Jian's expression changed slightly, "Your Majesty, you can even believe in dreams, what else can you not believe in, my old minister."

Ying Zheng smiled faintly, "This is not the same."

Wang Jian was taken aback, "What's the difference?"

Yingzheng's eyes brightened slightly, "The dream of the widow has always been more accurate, and it is different from those illusory things."

Wang Jian frowned, "Even if His Majesty said so, it would be too unreal to say that there are any treasures in this land."

Li Si also agreed, "That's right! I also think that there is no treasure in this land."

Ying Zheng's expression changed slightly, and his eyes fell on Li Si, "If so?"

Li Si looked serious, "If there is any, I will take..."

As he spoke, Li Si looked around and finally settled on a pile of withered grass, "Eat that pile of withered grass!"

Ying Zheng ignored him, "Pull it down, you still have the dragon chair from last time."

Li Si:. . . . .

Then, as if thinking of something, his eyes fell on Wang Jian, "Wang Jian, if there is a treasure in this field, what should I do?"

Wang Jian focused his eyes, thought for a while, and then said: "If there is..."

"Then let the prime minister eat that pile of dry grass."

As he said that, Wang Jian's eyes also fell on the withered grass.

Li Si was taken aback, and looked at Wang Jian with even more puzzled eyes, "Why me again?"

Wang Jian looked indifferent, "Anyway, that's what you proposed just now. I'm just helping you complete your proposal. There's no problem at all, right?"

Li Si:. . . . .

Not to mention Li Si, even Ying Zheng who was on the side was confused and felt a little fooled.

Zhao Gao, on the other hand, didn't think the matter was serious, and nodded repeatedly, "General Wang deserves to be able to use his troops to make it work. The logic is clear, and there is nothing wrong with it!"

Li Si frowned even deeper.

But Ying Zheng was too lazy to scribble any more, "Forget it, let's see if there are any treasures in this field."

After the voice fell, everyone immediately fell silent.

Then Ying Zheng gave another order, "Get a hoe!"

"Yes!"

After the words fell, a guard retreated, and soon handed a hoe to Ying Zheng.

Taking the hoe, Ying Zheng walked straight towards the cracked field without hesitation.

Li Si was taken aback when he saw this, "What is Your Majesty doing?"

It was because the image of the majestic emperor carrying a hoe was so weird that Li Si couldn't help asking.

Wang Jian and Zhao Gao also looked at Ying Zheng very puzzled, not knowing what Ying Zheng wanted to do.

Ying Zheng looked indifferent, "What else can I do with a hoe? Of course it's digging."

"Dig the soil?!" Li Si couldn't help but screamed, he really didn't expect the majestic emperor to dig the soil himself.

If this appearance is seen by the people of the world, I am afraid that their jaws will drop in shock.

Seeing this, Wang Jian couldn't help but say, "Don't say it's Your Majesty, even if it's us digging, it's really overkill."

Ying Zheng didn't bother to pay attention to these comments, and started digging with a hoe.

And as the soil was dug out, Ying Zheng's eyes became more and more expectant.

He clearly remembered that Ying Lan said that the locust plague in Lingnan was the worst, and there must be the most young locusts here.

At the side, the three ministers also came up to meet him, looking at the soil Ying Zheng dug with a little curiosity.

It's just that the scene looked a little weird, the emperor was digging the soil, and the three ministers were watching.

If this scene is seen by others, I'm afraid they will be shocked and wonder if they are looking at some treasure.

After a while of digging, Yingzheng's eyes lit up slightly, "Yes!"

Under the soil, the figure of the locust cub has been revealed.

Ying Zheng didn't hesitate, put down the hoe in his hand, then stretched out his hand to dig the soil, and then picked up the locust cub and put it in his hand.

Seeing that Ying Zheng seemed to have gained something, several ministers on the side also rushed to greet him, all curiously looking at the things in Ying Zheng's hands.

After looking carefully for a while, Li Si was the first to recognize what was in Ying Zheng's hand, "Isn't this a locust cub?"

Ying Zheng nodded slightly, "That's right, it's indeed a locust cub."

On the other hand, Wang Jian couldn't help but frowned when he heard the words, "It's just a mere bug, so it can't be considered a treasure, right?"

Even Zhao Gao began to mutter, "Could it be that this is what His Majesty's dream hinted at, but what's so good about this mere bug? It's actually a treasure."

Faced with these questions, Ying Zheng just smiled lightly, and then thoughtfully said: "If you think about it carefully, isn't it really a treasure?"

Hearing that Li Si was thoughtful, after a while he seemed to think of something, his eyes lit up involuntarily.

Immediately, Li Si screamed, "Treasure! It really is a treasure!"

Wang Jian was taken aback, "Why are you following His Majesty?"

Li Si was thoughtful, "Think about it, if so many locust cubs are left alone and wait for them to grow up and fly out, what will happen?"

Wang Jian was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly realized, "Looking at this number, there should be a serious plague of locusts."

Li Si nodded again and again, "That's right! Don't forget that we grow sweet potatoes. Once the locust plague happens, the losses we will suffer will be unimaginable!"

"But what if the locust cubs are discovered and disposed of in advance?"

Hearing this, Wang Jian also thought for a while, and then said: "In this way, the plague of locusts can be avoided, thereby avoiding this huge loss!"

Li Si nodded, "That's right!"

Hearing this, Wang Jian also understood, and couldn't help nodding, "In this way, we really found a treasure!"

Wang Jian knows how precious sweet potatoes are. It is not only money, but also a treasure linked to national power and the people of the world. It is extremely precious.

And if this discovery can prevent the loss of sweet potatoes, then this thing is definitely a treasure.

Its value is by no means measurable by things like money.

On the side, Ying Zheng looked at the cub locust in his hand and said lightly, "This thing is very useful!"

As soon as these words came out, several ministers were taken aback.

In addition to harming crops, locusts, such pests, have other uses?

Chapter 94 Really Fragrant

Li Si couldn't help but ask, "What's the use of this locust?"

Wang Jian was also very puzzled, "Does Your Majesty have any other plans?"

Ying Zheng didn't bother to explain their questions, but looked at Zhao Gao, "Zhao Gao, start a fire!"

"Yes!" Zhao Gao didn't ask any more questions, but just agreed with his hand.

After the order was given, Zhao Gao acted very quickly. After a long time with the two guards, he started the fire and finished cooking the pot.

Seeing this, Li Si and Wang Jian were even more puzzled. They stood there watching the fire and were very curious about what Ying Zheng was going to do.

Immediately, Ying Zheng dug out some locust cubs, and then ordered: "Wash these locust cubs and bring them here, and let someone burn the oil."

"Yes!" Zhao Gao agreed, and then quickly settled everything.

Li Si and Wang Jian frowned, and their expressions became more and more puzzled.

It was the first time they had seen Ying Zheng do these things, so naturally they couldn't understand Ying Zheng's routine at all.

When the oil was almost burnt, Yingzheng put the young locusts in, and there was only a sound of "Zi" from the oil, and the hot oil instantly soaked the young locusts, and a fragrance spread.

Seeing this, Wang Jian couldn't help but ask, "Wouldn't cremation be better if His Majesty wants to eliminate the locusts?"

From his point of view, did Ying Zheng want to fry the locust cubs to death?

Li Si also nodded slightly, "Yes, Your Majesty, although they are hateful, they haven't eaten sweet potatoes yet. Isn't it too cruel to directly fry them?"

Ying Zheng glanced at the two quietly, but was too lazy to answer.
