Travel through Shen Meizhuang to open the system and walk sideways in the harem

Shen Meimei was full of gratitude towards Jin Mi and Wen Shichu, so she often asked Wen Shichu to bring some small and exquisite gifts to Jin Mi when he entered the palace.

Life in the palace was peaceful and tranquil, but in recent times, the emperor seemed to have become unusually busy.

More than ten days have passed, and he has been dealing with state affairs, as if something important has happened.

One day, Shen Meimei sat in front of the window and felt a little bored.

She looked at the scenery outside the window and suddenly thought of the emperor, so she turned around and asked Jin Xi beside her:

"Jinxi, how long has it been since the Emperor came?"

Jinxi stopped sewing, thought for a moment and replied:

"Your Majesty, it's been about five or six days. I heard from someone that a major event happened in the previous dynasty, and several ministers were summoned to the previous dynasty to discuss countermeasures."

Hearing the news, Shen Meimei frowned, and curiosity surged in her heart.

She wanted to know what could have made the emperor so anxious.

So she told Jinxi:

"Jinxi, go and find out what happened in the previous dynasty. Why did the emperor become so anxious?"

Before Jinxi could leave, the emperor came in with small steps.

Shen Meimei quickly stood up and saluted, "Greetings to the Emperor. Why didn't you inform me of your arrival?"

"Haha, I missed you, I couldn't help but come here! Mei'er, don't ask, the weather has been warming up recently, and locusts have appeared in many fields. Fortunately, the locusts haven't grown up yet, there are only some larvae in the fields. In another three or four months, the locusts will grow up, and no grass will grow wherever they go."

The emperor took Shen Meimei into the main hall of Tangli Palace. Caixing poured tea for the emperor. The emperor looked at the teacup and felt thirsty. He drank it all in one gulp and sighed:

"Mei'er, the ducklings were distributed to farmers, but they are not very enthusiastic about raising them. Now we can see larvae in the fields. What should we do?"

Shen Meimei thought about it and felt that this was too strange. The ducklings were provided to farmers for free, so why were they not very motivated to raise poultry?

"Your Majesty, don't the farmers know that a locust plague is coming? If they don't raise ducklings seriously now, how many people will starve to death when the locust plague comes?" Shen Meimei sighed helplessly.

A few days ago, she also received a letter from Jeju Ama, saying that farmers were also in a similar state of passive resistance, only busy with the things at hand and never considering what to do in the future.

Shen Meimei stood up and took the emperor to the small vegetable garden.

There are also many larvae in the small vegetable garden of Tangli Palace. Fortunately, Xiao Yunzi put the chickens, ducklings, geese, etc. in the fields to catch locust larvae and eat them. So far, there is no harm to the land.

"Your Majesty, I think that instead of trying to find a solution in the palace, it would be better to conduct an on-site investigation to see why the farmers are not motivated. Without investigation, there is no right to speak. It is better to leave the palace and find the real reason." Shen Meimei said softly.

The emperor nodded slightly, his eyes full of joy, "Then I will go there myself!"

Shen Meimei grabbed the emperor's arm and said coquettishly:

"Your Majesty, Tangli Palace is too boring, I want to go with you!"

"Nonsense, you are pregnant, what if something goes wrong? No, I can't let you take risks!" The emperor held Shen Meimei's hand and said with concern.

"Your Majesty, I beg you, my pregnancy is very stable, please let me go with you!"
