Ye Jingyu frowned slightly and put down the bamboo book.

"Xuan."

A moment later, Han Shi, dressed in casual clothes, walked in from the outside and knelt on the ground excitedly as soon as he entered.

"I just received the news that the prescription given by the emperor has taken effect. The state officials have followed the emperor's instructions to isolate those who are not infected with the plague, and those who cannot be saved are incinerated on the spot. Now the plague has been controlled."

Ye Jingyu's brows suddenly relaxed a little.

"Okay, then order people to brew the medicine in large numbers. We must save all the people we can and leave no one behind."

After hearing this, Han Shi knelt on his knees and said with emotion: "The emperor is so kind, it is really a blessing to the people of Great Zhou."

Immediately he sighed again and said: "But I don't know why natural disasters continue to torture the people of my great Zhou Dynasty."

Ye Jingyu's phoenix eyes narrowed. "Are you talking about the locust plague in western Anhui?"

Han Shi sighed and said: "That's exactly what happened. Although locust plague is not a rare thing, it does not happen every year. Now drought, plague and locust plague have all come together. If it is not controlled as soon as possible, the people will inevitably suffer. There will be a lot of criticism.”

Ye Jingyu snorted coldly and said, "What will they say? Say that I am not worthy of my virtue? Say that I am not the legitimate son of the Queen Mother? Or say that this world should not belong to me?"

Han Shi was startled and quickly knelt on the ground.

"I don't know."

Ye Jingyu said sarcastically: "How could you not know that we were still talking happily before going to court today?"

Han Shi suddenly broke out in sweat, knelt down and said, "I have never said anything wrong about the emperor."

Ye Jingyu leaned forward slightly, his eyes aggressive.

"If you don't tell me, does that mean you don't think so?"

Han Shi panicked for a moment and said prostrately: "Although the emperor is not the legitimate son of the queen, he is the eldest son of the previous emperor. Since ancient times, the throne has been arranged in an orderly manner. This throne should be filled by the emperor. Moreover, natural disasters have always been beyond human control. With the emperor, It doesn’t matter who it is.”

Ye Jingyu's expression softened slightly.

"Get up, instead of arguing about this, it is better to think about how to eliminate the locust plague. The rain in western Anhui is acceptable. If the locusts can be eliminated as soon as possible, there will be no harvest."

Han Shi said repeatedly: "That's it. I have sent people to Wanxi to catch locusts. I believe there will be good news soon."

Yin Qingxuan couldn't bear it anymore. When the locusts came, they were so overwhelming that it would take a lifetime to catch them. What's more, those things have wings, so people can't fly with them.

She took a step forward, knelt on the ground and said, "I have a plan that may break the locust plague."

Han Shi glanced at Yin Qingxuan and thought to himself, where did this stupid young man come from? The locust plague has been unable to be solved for thousands of years. What good idea can a little eunuch have?

Ye Jingyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Tell me."

Yin Qingxuan cleared her throat and said: "The slave's strategy is very simple. All you need to do is send thousands of chickens and ducks. These livestock are the natural enemies of locusts, so you can ensure that the insects are eliminated at your fingertips."

Han Shi's dim old eyes suddenly had a glimmer of light.

These livestock can indeed eat locusts and can also fly. If this is feasible, they will definitely be much better than using humans.

Ye Jingyu was slightly startled. This method was unheard of.

After thinking about it carefully, there is indeed some basis for this proposal. It can be called a strange plan.

The corner of his mouth raised slightly, and he slapped the case and said: "Immediately send an order to collect a large number of chickens and ducks, and send them all to western Anhui to exterminate the locusts."

"Yes, veteran, I'll do it now."

Han Shi kowtowed and left happily.

"Get up too."

Ye Jingyu walked around the hall and found that Yin Qingxuan was still kneeling on the ground.

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Yin Qingxuan rubbed her knees and got up. It was very painful to have to kneel at every turn. It seemed that she had to kneel twice to make it easier.

Ye Jingyu glanced over and paused for a moment on her slender jade fingers rubbing her knees.

Inexplicably, I felt that this hand looked like a woman's hand.

I was relieved to think that the eunuchs grew taller and slender after castration.

"How do you know this?"

Ye Jing was so bright that he clasped his hands behind his back and looked down at Yin Qingxuan, his deep eyes full of inquiry.

Yin Qingxuan straightened up and said, "I heard this from my grandma. There was a locust plague in her hometown before, and this method was used to solve it."

Ye Jingyu chuckled: "Your grandma is a wise old woman. If this can be accomplished, you will be the first to do it."

Seeing that Ye Jingyu was in a good mood, Yin Qingxuan took the opportunity to ask, "I wonder what reward the emperor can give to this servant?"

Ye Jingyu was used to Yin Qingxuan being jealous of money, so he smiled and asked, "What do you want? Silver or cloth?"

Yin Qingxuan said quickly: "I want an official."

The corners of Ye Jingyu's mouth raised a little more.

"With your talent, I really should reward you with an official position. Unfortunately, you are a eunuch and eunuchs are not allowed to enter the court."

Yin Qingxuan couldn't help but curse secretly, you are the eunuch and your whole family are eunuchs.

But he said flatteringly: "My servant's abilities are limited, so naturally I don't dare to think about becoming an official in the court. I just need to let my servant become an official in this harem."

Then he added in his mind that any official would be fine, as long as he didn't have to serve Ye Jingyu.

Ye Jingyu looked at this face that was as bright as the full moon, and suddenly smiled and said: "Okay, then I will make you a close servant, and also a supervisor of Linyuan."

Yin Qingxuan looked confused when he heard this. She laughed dryly and asked, "I have just entered the palace not long ago. I really don't know what official positions these two are."

Ye Jingyu said in a cheerful mood: "I'm lucky that the chamberlain serves me personally. The supervisor of Shanglin Garden is in charge of flowers, plants, gardens, livestock, fruits and vegetables, etc. You happen to have to take care of the seeds of Yunxiang Garden. This position is very suitable."

The corners of Yin Qingxuan's eyes suddenly drooped.

I thought he was a big official, but it turned out that he was still serving Ye Jingyu, a bastard, and a farming captain.

Ye Jingyu had already walked to the couch and asked with a half-smile, "What? Not satisfied?"

She didn't dare to say anything if she wasn't satisfied. Who knew if Ye Jingyu would suddenly have a seizure and charge her with a charge of collision.

Suigan smiled and said: "Satisfied, I thank you for your kindness."

Ye Jingyu hummed and opened his hands.

"Come here and change my clothes."

Yin Qingxuan was speechless for a while. He was obviously a man with hands and feet, but he still let others take off his clothes. Are all the emperors in ancient times handicapped?

I complained in my heart, but my body walked over honestly.

He lowered his head and took off Ye Jingyu's girdle, then took off his robe and put it on his arm.

Ye Jingyu's snow-white shirt suddenly fell apart. Looking at the neatly arranged abdominal muscles and the mermaid line extending downward, Yin Qingxuan's face instantly heated up, and she quickly ran away with the clothes.

Ye Jingyu curled his lips. This little slave had already had children, but he was still shy.

That's all, seeing as he has offered suggestions one after another, I won't embarrass him any more.

"Go to the outer hall and wait."
