princess regent lifted from her grave

Ye Lijue wanted to deal with the memorial on the case of Brother Eight Emperors after finishing replying to the report of Mr. Zhou, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

At this time, Qingyun came in a hurry, holding a secret letter in his hand,

This secret letter was quickly submitted by Cangyu Pavilion, Ye Lijue's intelligence organization.

Ye Lijue unfolded the letter and checked it quickly, and frowned after reading it.

A severe locust plague suddenly occurred in more than a dozen states and counties in the east and west of the Zisheng Kingdom, and nearly half of the country was affected.

The local people also took various measures, but the locust plague was serious,

Since the beginning of winter last year, there has been no sign of snowfall in the east and west.

Now at the end of spring, the climate is dry, and disasters have occurred directly, and locust plagues are often accompanied by severe droughts.

A large number of locusts will devour the seedlings, and severe cases will cause famine due to food shortages.

Ye Lijue suddenly remembered Li Tingran from General Li's residence that Yan'er mentioned,

With the assistance of a shopkeeper He from Xiyou Kingdom, he hoarded a large amount of grain.

In the past two days, Li Tingran kept his peace of mind. He never left the house, and no one contacted him secretly. It has not been found out where his large amount of food is now.

Ye Lijue's eyes narrowed slightly, this Li Lingshi will never be unpredictable,

Furthermore, someone secretly asked him to act like this, and that huge banknote was the basis.

If anyone in Xiyou Country has the ability to predict the future, it must be a noble and extremely mysterious wizard in Xiyou Country.

It is not impossible for him to divination one or two major natural disasters.

Ye Lijue had received a secret report from Qingyu who had sneaked into Xiyou Kingdom long ago, and the prince of Xiyou Kingdom had also stockpiled food.

Up to now, he has not received any secret reports of natural disasters in Xiyou Country.

Ye Lijue fell into deep thought for a moment,

He vaguely guessed that behind Li Tingran's behavior, there was also a wizard's handwriting,

Is the wizard trying to take advantage of the impending disaster in the Purple Sacred Kingdom and try to get in the way?

But what does this wizard intend to do?

Or is it that the wizard and the royal family of Xiyou Kingdom joined together?

Ye Lijue thought of the report from the dark guard last night,

The people of His Highness the Crown Prince of Xiyou Country actually wanted to take Yan'er away, and wanted Yan'er to be his concubine?

Ye Lijue's eyes are extremely cold, this prince of Xiyou Kingdom is really a coward!

How could he tolerate this matter? Last night, he ordered to secretly transport some of the mysterious weapons to the border with the Red Forest Army.

Not only transported to the border with Xiyou country,

It was even transported to the border with Nan'an and Beiling countries,

It's just that the quantity is not as large as that sent to Xiyou Country.

At this time, Ye Lijue, who was sitting on the dragon chair, had cold eyes and a cold aura,

Qingyun unconsciously took a small step back.

Even King Xiu felt the cold aura of the ninth younger brother, and asked in a low voice,

"Ninth brother, what happened?"

Hearing the words, Ye Lijue restrained his momentum a little, and asked Qing Yun to pass the secret report in his hand to King Xiu for review.

King Xiu took it quickly, and after checking it out, he looked serious,

"Ninth brother, this locust disaster is serious. If it is not handled properly, it will easily lead to even greater disasters. The people will suffer from famine due to food shortages. In severe cases, corpses will be scattered all over the field, and even some riots will be caused. It will harm the country and people's livelihood. unfavorable."

King Xiu was puzzled again,

"Why is there no mention of the locust plague in these reports?"

Qingyun explained,

"Xiu Wang, this secret letter is sent quickly by flying pigeons. The memorial needs to be presented layer by layer a little slower, and it will be delivered to the imperial study room tomorrow at the earliest."

King Xiu understood.

Ye Lijue looked up at King Xiu and said coldly,

"There are three ancient sayings that there are three causes of famine: water, drought, and locusts. Once a locust plague breaks out, it will be "all the grass and trees for thousands of miles, or all the cattle, horses, banners, and banners. The damage is even worse than that of floods and droughts. The eradication of locusts is imminent, and it is even more important to do a good job in the aftermath of the disaster. Don't let the people of the Li people live in dire straits because of hunger and cold. In this matter of eliminating locusts, it must be ensured that no one will die tragically due to hunger and cold. "

King Xiu hurriedly got up when he heard the words, his expression was very serious, and he bowed his hands,

"The minister obeys the order."

Afterwards, Ye Lijue decreed that the important ministers of the Xuan Dynasty should immediately enter the palace and go to the Zichao Hall to discuss the matter.

Later, Ye Lijue also drew on the "Government of Locusts" to write down some feasible opinions, and put forward his own different opinions on biological control and artificial locust catching.

Then hand it over to King Xiu for a careful inspection.

Ye Lijue also ordered Qingyun to keep an eye on Li Tingran's actions, and to find out where the food was stored.

Maybe Li Tingran's storage of grain is of great use,

Even if there is an order to open warehouses to release grain, but the number of people is huge, how long can the government stores in various places last?

Furthermore, the plague of locusts was followed by drought,

If the seeds are sown after the locust plague, there is no guarantee that the autumn harvest will be reaped.

The granary in the south of the Yangtze River may be able to alleviate it a little bit, but it is not a long-term move. The amount of food needed in the past few months must be huge.

Next, the situation in the Purple Holy Kingdom is extremely serious.

After all the ministers from the court had arrived, Ye Lijue and King Xiu hurried to Zichao Hall to discuss the matter.

Han Fu

After Mu Fengyan finished changing her skirt, she and Mu Xiu took the carriage to the outside of the residence.

It's just that there is an extra veiled hat on Mu Feng's cigarette butt, covering her face.

When you are in the Han Mansion and Shangguan Mansion, there is no need to do anything extra. After all, there are hidden guards guarding the dark place, and no outsiders will break in.

But after leaving the mansion, Mu Fengyan has to pay more attention from today,

That Dashuang pretended to be her and went to Xiyou Country. Although the journey was far away, very few people knew about it.

But there is no lack of people like Li Tingran, if he secretly communicated with the prince of Xiyou country and unintentionally told her about it, making the prince of Xiyou country know that Dashuang is a fake, then what she did would be in vain?

If the prince of Xiyou country sends people to come back again, it will be another troublesome matter. At that time, I don't know what tricks the prince of Xiyou country will use to infiltrate into the purple holy country.

Mu Fengyan and Mu Xiu took the carriage and went directly to the backyard of the Shengdu Medical Hall.

Doctor Wei and Guzhu Ning rushed out to meet him after they found out.

When Mu Fengyan got off the carriage, he saw the smiling Doctor Wei and Guzhu Ning.

The tone of the two people was also kind, and they bowed their hands together,

"Miss Mu"

Seeing this, Mu Fengyan hurriedly returned the salute, "Doctor Wei, Master Ninggu."

The smiles of Doctor Wei and Master Ning are more sincere. Miss Mu is not only kind-hearted, but calm in doing things, neither arrogant nor rash,

She doesn't have the arrogance of other official ladies, not to mention that Miss Mu is the future queen of the Zisheng Kingdom.

Both of them praised in their hearts, it is really a blessing for Zisheng Kingdom to have such a queen in the future, and it is also a blessing for the emperor.
