Chapter 134 Locusts Fly Ahead, Soldiers Chase Behind
Li Shimin ate more than twenty cicada monkeys in a row, and left satisfied.

After all, there are civil servants and military generals in Xiande Palace, waiting for him to preside over the overall situation.

Without him, the government cannot continue.

The sun had just set, and Li Chengqian and Li Tai had already assembled at Prince Pingan's Mansion.

There is no way not to gather!

But the father confessed that if they can't catch the cicada monkey, tomorrow they can only drink the northwest wind.

In order not to drink the northwest wind, you have to work hard!

Isn't it just catching a monkey?What's the big deal.

Under the leadership of Cheng An and Chang Le, Li Chengqian and Li Tai went to catch the monkey together.

After catching the cicada monkey, Li Chengqian and Li Tai cheered up their interest.

Good guy, when two people looked at a cicada monkey, they pounced on it as if they were seeing a relative.

Because of the joining of Li Chengqian and Li Tai tonight, the Cicada Monkey in the Taiji Palace will be bad luck for eight lifetimes.

In Prince Ping'an's mansion, there are two big wooden basins full of cicada monkeys.

It can be said to be a great result.

Three days later, cicada monkeys also began to show their heads in the streets and alleys of Chang'an City and in the villages.

These cicada monkeys who had just begun to show their heads were immediately captured alive by the people who were closely monitoring them.

Since then, there has been an upsurge in catching cicada monkeys in various parts of Chang'an City.

Because people who have eaten it say it is good.

Except for a very few people who are allergic to this species, even allergies will not really endanger their health.

It's just that there will be some red spots on the body, and it will be accompanied by itching.

In the Xiande Hall of Tai Chi Palace, Cheng Yaojin walked in with a happy face.

"Your Majesty, all the potatoes that will be planted at the end have sprouted, and all of them have survived."

Cheng Yaojin's words made Li Shimin stand up happily and laughed.

"Okay, very good. I knew that I would leave this matter to Zhijie, and that's right."

"By the way, those apples that Cheng An planted are around your field, have you ever helped take care of them?"

While Li Shimin was happy, he did not forget to care about the apple seedlings.

"In reply to Your Majesty, the general wanted to help take care of it, but His Highness the Sixth Prince refused. Every day His Highness and Princess Changle would go somewhere to water and weed."

After hearing Cheng Yaojin's answer, Li Shimin nodded.

"Since it's Chengan's intention, Zhijie, you just need to take care of the potatoes."

"Tell the soldiers that once the potatoes are harvested, all the soldiers who participated in planting and caring for the potatoes will be rewarded."

When Li Shimin went to court, it was like a spring breeze blowing on his face.

The good news one after another made him feel happier in this disaster year.

Thinking that all of this was due to Cheng An, Li Shimin walked towards Prince Pingan's Mansion.

When I walked in, I saw that people all over the courtyard were weaving something like a net.

Even Chang Le was busy in the sun sweating profusely.

"Cheng'an, Changle. What are you doing?"

When everyone saw that His Majesty was coming, they immediately put down their work and bowed down.

"Get up, Cheng An and Chang Le come here."

Li Shimin looked very curiously at the things covered with mesh everywhere, and for a moment he didn't know what the two of them were going to do again.

"Father, brother Cheng'an is going to use this to protect the apple seedlings and potato seedlings."

"In about ten days, the plague of locusts will come to Chang'an City."

"Father, this is what Brother Cheng An said."

Chang Le has a serious expression on his face, Chang Le firmly believes every word of Cheng An now.

Because since Brother Cheng An came to Taiji Palace, every sentence has come true.

"Chengan, after ten days, is the plague of locusts really coming?"

"How can this thing protect apple seedlings and potato seedlings?"

Li Shimin asked with great concern, in his heart he already thought that this was the sound transmission from the Pig God to Cheng An.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for Cheng An to know such details, even estimate the date.

"Father, the object made by this son-in-law only needs to set up poles around the apple orchard and potato licks, and then cover the fruit seedlings with this object."

"The mesh is so small that locusts can't get in at all, and the silk thread is so strong that locusts can't stop biting, so the fruit seedlings and potato seedlings are safe."

"The plague of locusts is now spreading northward along the Henan Road. If Pig God's predictions are correct, they will reach Chang'an City in ten days."

After hearing Cheng'an's words, Li Shimin nodded, and his mood immediately became heavy.

Although I have long been mentally prepared for the locust plague to come, but when it really comes.

Li Shimin's heart was still very heavy.

Early in the morning of the second day, Xiande Hall sent an urgent report.

The urgent report came from Henan Road.

This made Li Shimin immediately feel that something was wrong.

Sure enough, locust plagues covered the sky and sun in Henan Province.

Fortunately, His Majesty ordered not to plant autumn crops, so no major losses were caused.

Even so, wherever the locusts passed, even the bark was eaten clean.

A large number of locusts are flying north, please be prepared for protection, Your Majesty.

Li Shimin gasped after reading the memorial.

The severity of the locust plague was no different from what Cheng An said.

"Xuanling, tell all the officials."

Li Shimin handed over the memorial to Prime Minister Fang Xuanling.

After all the officials listened to the report, all of them had the same expression as Li Shimin after reading the report.

Terrible, terrible.

If it wasn't for the Sixth Prince's suggestion in advance, the loss this time would be impossible to estimate.

Before the officials had finished digesting the news, a hastily delivered a memorial.

"Report, General Qin urgently."

"Give it to me quickly and present it."

When Li Shimin heard that it was Qin Qiong's express report, he immediately became more energetic.

Because he decided it was good news, and very good news at that.

Li Shimin opened the memorial excitedly.

The more you look at the smile on your face, the more wonderful it is.

"Haha, haha, Qin Qiong and Niu Junda have done a great job. The sixth prince of mine is even more indispensible."

All the officials were confused when they heard this.

It is true that General Qin and General Niu have made great achievements, why does this matter have anything to do with His Highness the Sixth Prince?

"Xuanling, please read this memorial to all the lovers."

Li Shimin happily handed over the memorial in his hand to Prime Minister Fang Xuanling.

After Fang Xuanling finished reading, all the officials became excited.

In the memorial, Qin Qiong described a magnificent picture scroll of locusts flying in front and soldiers chasing behind.

And the master who led this scroll turned out to be His Royal Highness the Sixth Prince.

Everyone was so shocked that even the date and time when Qin Qiong and Niu Junda dealt with the floods in the south of the Yangtze River were well-determined.

Even when the locusts break out of the ground is calculated accurately and finely.

Li Chengan, who finally went to Tao Pavilion to listen to the lecture, instantly collected all of today's [-] shock points.

He knew that Qin Qiong's memorial must have arrived.
