The more they talked, the more the queen felt that Wen Liuli was easy to get along with. Unconsciously, the two seemed to have forgotten the unpleasantness when they first met. When Wen Liuli left, they seemed like friends who had known each other for many years.

On the other hand, in Shengqian Palace, Tang Zongluan had been losing chess games all afternoon, and that was when Tang Tianyu was letting him go.

During this afternoon, Tang Zongluan really fell in love with chess. He kept playing despite repeated defeats.

"Grandpa Emperor, night is approaching, and it's time for your grandson to go back."

"Well, you guys go back. Come walk around the palace more often when you have time."

Seeing Wen Liuli coming back, Tang Zongluan also looked up at the sky and then nodded.

Of course, Tang Zongluan did not let the two go back empty-handed. Instead, seeing that Wen Liuli liked osmanthus cake, he brought some back for them.

After the two left Shengqian Palace, Tang Zongluan narrowed his eyes and looked at Wen Liuli's back meaningfully.

"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong with the princess?"

Noticing Tang Zongluan's gaze, Liu Baichang quickly asked.

"There is still some death energy left in this child. It seems they are hiding something from me."

From the first moment he saw Wen Liuli, Tang Zongluan felt something unusual in her body.

It stands to reason that death energy only exists on dead people, so how could it appear on a living person? And on such a lively little girl.

"Never mind. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. They should know what they are doing."

After the discussion, Tang Zongluan waved his hand, already having a guess in his mind.

Because in addition to the deathly aura, he also felt an energy in Wen Liuli's body that did not belong to this world, and he had heard of that energy before.

At the north and south poles of the Immortal Realm, that is, in the life forbidden zone of the Immortal Realm, there are two races that do not belong to this world, and there are two treasures in those two races.

These two treasures are the Hades' Red Spider Lily and the Nine-Lives Herb.

It is rumored that these two treasures have the power to bring the dead back to life and can bring the dead back to life.

But even Tang Zongluan had never seen those two things, he had only heard about them in rumors.

Because even he didn't dare to set foot in the extreme south and the extreme north.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

On the way back to Prince Wu's Mansion, Wen Liuli noticed Tang Tianyu's strange look and couldn't help but frowned.

Are there flowers on my face?

"Noble Concubine Gu is a vindictive person. You have humiliated her like this today, I'm afraid she won't let it go."

"Tsk, if an enemy comes, we will stop him. If a flood comes, we will block it with earth. Are you afraid?"

"Of course I'm not afraid."

"That's it? If you're not afraid, why should I be afraid?"

Hearing this, Tang Tianyu couldn't help but twitch his lips.

Come to think of it, even if Concubine Gu has great abilities, it is impossible for her to do anything to my princess under my nose.

If you dare to come, I dare to take it, but I am afraid that you can't take it yourself!

"Xu~"

Just as the two were talking, Yun Yin in front suddenly pulled the reins hard, and both of them leaned forward due to inertia and almost hit the car door.

"what happened?"

After stabilizing his body, Tang Tianyu asked with a frown.

"Your Highness, there is a person on the ground, who looks like a messenger."

"Ok?"

Hearing this, Tang Tianyu raised his eyebrows, then pulled open the door curtain and saw the person lying on the ground at a glance.

As it was already late in the day, there was not a single person on the street at this time, so no one paid any attention to the person lying on the ground.

At this time, Yun Yin had already walked to the side of the messenger and stretched out his hand to feel the messenger's breath.

"Your Highness, he is still alive."

Feeling the faint breath, Yun Yin quickly stood up and said to Tang Tianyu.

Hearing this, Tang Tianyu winked at Wen Liuli, and then saw Wen Liuli slowly walked out of the carriage and walked to the side of the messenger.

Then, Wen Liuli placed his fingers on the messenger's pulse and felt his pulse.

"It's okay, he's just exhausted, he can still be saved."

After saying that, Wen Liuli took out a silver needle from his arms and carefully inserted it into the messenger's acupuncture point.

After a while, the messenger on the ground slowly opened his eyes, followed by a violent cough.

"Cough cough..."

"Who are you? Why did you faint on the street?"

At this time, Tang Tianyu had also walked down. Seeing the person in front of him, he slowly asked.

"Thank you for your help. I have an urgent report to send to the palace and will report back to you later."

After saying that, the messenger was about to stand up, but Tang Tianyu pushed him back to the ground. Then he took out a token from his arms and placed it in front of the messenger.

"Tell me, what's the emergency?"

Seeing the word "Wu" on the token, the messenger's pupils suddenly dilated, and then he fell to his knees with a thud.

"Your subordinate Zhou Xin greets His Majesty the King of Wu!"

"Okay, tell me what's the hurry."

"Your Highness, the autumn harvest in the south was hit by a locust plague. Wherever the locusts passed, no grass grew. The people were suffering terribly. This time, I came to the capital to deliver this news to the palace."

If it were someone else, the messenger would naturally not be able to inform him of the news so easily.

But the person in front of him is different. He is King Wu, and his status in the East Wilderness Kingdom is second only to His Majesty and the Emperor.

"uh-huh?"

Hearing this, Tang Tianyu and Wen Liuli both raised their eyebrows. Thinking about it carefully, it is indeed almost the autumn harvest season.

Locusts are undoubtedly a natural disaster no matter which dynasty it is. The people have no way to deal with them and can only try their best to drive them away.

But human power is limited. If you can kill one or ten, can you kill ten thousand or a million?

the answer is negative.

By the time you finish killing the locusts, your crops will probably be almost done too.

"I understand. You can take my carriage to the palace."

After a while, Tang Tianyu took a deep breath and slowly spoke to the messenger.

Looking at the messenger's appearance, I guess his horse must have run away when he fainted just now. Can you make it to the palace alive in this body?

However, the locust plague is a matter of great importance, and my father must be informed as soon as possible so that timely measures can be taken to stop the losses, otherwise the people will suffer.

"This……"

Hearing Tang Tianyu's words, the messenger suddenly became nervous.

This is the carriage of His Majesty the King of Wu. Can I sit in it?

And if I sit down, what will Your Highness do?

"Don't waste time, the palace is still waiting for news. This place is not far from the palace, my wife and I can walk back."

In response to the messenger's concerns, Tang Tianyu simply waved his hand.

"Yunyin, please send him off."

"Yes!"

Yun Yin nodded when he heard this, then quickly jumped on the horse and winked at the messenger.

"Thank you, Your Majesty King Wu!"

Seeing this, Zhou Xin was filled with gratitude, and then he followed Yun Yin and disappeared from the sight of Tang Tianyu and the others.

"Let's go, curfew is about to begin."

"Don't you care?"

Hearing Tang Tianyu's words, Wen Liuli frowned slightly. The locust plague must be very serious. The man just now was almost exhausted to death.

Why do you still act like nothing happened?

"Go home. Someone will take care of these things."

"Hey, you are the King of Wu. The people are suffering so much, and you don't even blink an eyelid?"

Hearing this, Wen Liuli immediately became unhappy. Why did I marry such a person who doesn't care about anything that has nothing to do with him?

In fact, she really wronged Tang Tianyu. Although he didn't say it, he already had a plan in his mind and would definitely help wherever he could.

"Um... I didn't say I don't care, but the locust problem can't be solved by force. I can't just kill them with a sword, right?"

"Tsk, I see you just didn't intend to care."

"I am so wronged."

"By the way, Madam, how did Blue Star deal with the locust plague?"

As they walked, Tang Tianyu looked at Wen Liuli and asked.

Blue Star has advanced technology and seems to have plans to deal with everything. Tang Tianyu immediately became curious about it. How does Blue Star deal with natural disasters like this?

"Deal with it? Why should we deal with it? There's not enough food to eat, so how can there be a locust plague?"

"eat……?"

Hearing this, Tang Tianyu's eyes suddenly widened. Can this thing be eaten?

"Yeah, you don't know, this thing is very expensive, ordinary people can't afford it."

"what?"

"Hey, you won't understand even if I tell you more. I'll ask someone to catch some and bring them back. Then you'll know after you try them."

In fact, when Wen Liuli heard Zhou Xin talking about the locust plague just now, her first thought was to eat them. However, she was a little unhappy because Tang Tianyu didn't seem to intend to take care of it.

"Uh...okay."

Hearing this, Tang Tianyu twitched his lips, and then walked towards the direction of Prince Wu's Palace with Wen Liuli.

The next morning, when Wen Liuli got up, the guards in the mansion had already caught a large bag full of locusts.

Although it is said to be caught, there is actually no need to catch this thing at all. One just needs to walk to the field and wave a bag in the air a few times and you will find it.

It's not just the south. In recent days, locusts have also been rampant around Donghuang City, and the people are complaining bitterly.

However, since this place is located in the imperial city, there are soldiers to help drive them away, so the situation is naturally not as serious as in the south.

"Ma'am, why did you ask us to bring the things back?"

"Hey, you'll know in a moment."

Looking at the big bag full of locusts, Wen Liuli's saliva was almost flowing out.

He had eaten this thing before. It was crispy when fried and tasted delicious. She still misses the taste until now.

But her family's conditions were not very good at that time, so she had only eaten that thing once.

Later, when her living conditions improved, she had not yet tasted enough of the world's delicacies, and naturally had no time to savor the wonderful taste.

About half an hour later, Wen Liuli walked out of the kitchen, and when she came out, Cuizhu behind her was holding a large plate full of fried locusts.

In order to make it taste better, Wen Liuli asked the chef to add a lot of dried chilies and peppercorns when frying, in addition to some seasonings such as salt. When the dish was out of the pot, Wen Liuli's saliva almost fell to the ground.

She had been craving for this for a long time. Ever since she came to the world of immortality, she had never tasted what spicy food tasted like.
