Chapter 425 Locust Plague
Qian Qian frowned deeply as he listened to Ram's story. He followed Ram to the meeting room of the palace and asked the system.
[Tongzi, what's going on in Shu? ]
[Uh,] the system pondered, [Lu Yu has done something wrong. He has not even arrived in Shu yet and he has already started to cause trouble.]
[There are indeed signs of locust plagues in Shu these days, but Jinglong has long discovered that he can control the disaster with his own methods. ]
[But Lu Yu, relying on his power to control nature, greatly expanded the scope and scale of the locust plague.]
Money money...
Take a deep breath, [Is it too late for us to go to Shu now? ]
[Too late,] the system suggested, [Give the money to Jinglong and Amang, they also need to accumulate experience regarding the locust plague.]
【All right. 】
When Qian Qian arrived at the meeting room, he saw that his eldest uncle and aunt, as well as his younger uncle and aunt, and even Brother You and Ah Hao all had ugly expressions.
Qian Qian sat on the main seat, "I will send a secret letter to the capital, asking all departments to prepare for disaster relief in advance."
Qiqige frowned and bowed, "Your Majesty, the locust plague in Shu is of great importance. If there is anything that Northern Frontier can do, please let me know."
If we can't do anything else, it's entirely possible to distribute some food.
Qian Qian shook his head, "Not yet, let's see how Jinglong, Aman and others respond."
Lin You stood up and handed over a secret letter, "Your Majesty, a secret letter was sent from the capital the day before yesterday. It is said that Aman submitted a petition to join the Third Prince's voyage to the West."
Money money...
He glanced at Brother You, unfolded the secret letter and read it, "Aman? Why does she want to go to the West?"
"It is said that Mrs. Luo gave her a booklet that contained all Western seeds. She wanted to go to the West and bring some back."
[Tongzi,] Qianqian asked immediately, [I never thought that Aman would want to go to the West.]
The system also admires, [Over the years, Aman has made great contributions to our Daxia agriculture by Jinglong's side. ]
[I think she might actually bring back a surprise this time when she goes to the West.]
Qian Qian rubbed his chin, [Oh, I kind of want to meet her, and I also want to meet Mr. Jing. ]
[I asked him a few years ago, and Jinglong has no intention of retiring. ]
The system also sighed, [Jinglong has been tending to the land all his life, and he should be most fulfilled when dealing with the land. ]
【However, he is not young anymore. 】
Qian Qian sighed, "This time I will go to Shu to take a look at his health. 】
Seeing that His Majesty remained silent, Lin Wuhui spoke up, "Your Majesty, about Aman's voyage to the West?"
"Yes."
She paused, "Where's Luo Meimei? Does she want to go?"
Lin Wuhui paused and said, "Your Majesty, I haven't asked."
Money money...
"Well, I'll write her a letter later to ask for her opinion."
"Yes."
Qian Qian discussed a few official matters with everyone and then stood up and left the meeting room, heading towards the courtyard where Chen Nanshuang was temporarily staying.
Chen Nanshuang had just changed her medicine and was a little weak at the moment.
Ruo'er fed her some water and whispered, "Ms. Chen's Majesty is here to see you."
Chen Nanshuang struggled to sit up, but was held down by Ruo'er. "It's okay. His Majesty told you not to be polite."
"Drink two more sips of water, and I will bring Your Majesty in."
"Thank you, Ruoer."
Chen Nanshuang thanked him, and soon Qianqian came in.
She sat in front of Chen Nanshuang, "How do you feel?"
"My lady, my lady," Chen Nanshuang looked up and saw a stunning face looking at her with a smile on her lips. After a long while, she said, "I am fine now."
"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
Qian Qian nodded, "Tell me, why did you come to see me?"
Chen Nanshuang paused, "Your Majesty, I would also like to join the Spacetime Law Enforcement Team, is that okay?"
Qian Qian raised an eyebrow, "Why do you want to join?"
Chen Nanshuang blushed, "I want to give my fellow villagers a place to stay so that they can do whatever they want."
"Okay," Qian Qian was waiting for her to say this, "When you are healed, go with Fang Ziqi and the others."
"It just so happens that Rong Lu has written several storybooks. You can just supervise and implement them when the time comes."
Chen Nanshuang was a little surprised. She didn't expect that His Majesty would agree so easily and she hurriedly thanked him.
Seeing that she looked really bad, Qian Qian hesitated for a moment and decided not to give her the red fruit and left.
[Qian Qian, do you still have concerns about Chen Nanshuang? ]
If I had no concerns, I would have given her the red fruit long ago.
Qian Qian shook his head, [It's not that I have any concerns, I just don't know this person very well.]
[Now that you can’t eat the foretelling melon, I have to be more cautious. ]
[Let's wait and see for a few years. If she's really good, then it won't be too late to reward her.]
【Well, you have the final say.】
"Xiao Hei, Xiao Hei, where have you been? Mimi, Mimi..."
The sound of Fang Ziqi looking for Xiao Hei came, Qian Qian's consciousness sank into the space, and Xiao Hei had fallen asleep long ago.
At this time in Shu, Jinglong and A'mang directed the villagers to dig pits and burn the locusts.
Aman was very puzzled. "Master," he looked at the old man with wrinkles on his face but in good spirits, "this locust plague came in a strange way."
"That's not right," Jinglong also said, "How can locusts grow up overnight?"
"Yeah," Armand smacked his lips, "I haven't had enough of those crunchy locusts yet."
"Come here, both of you, wash your faces and drink some water."
Chu Xinghe called out to Master Jinglong and his apprentice, and they immediately walked towards her.
Chu Xinghe frowned as he expressed his doubts while drinking water. "After all, Daxia has not lacked food in recent years. This locust plague is both a disaster and an opportunity."
She looked at Armand, "Have you sent a letter to Mrs. Luo?"
In recent years, Luo Meimei has often had unique insights on farming matters, and they are used to contacting Luo Meimei when they have something to do.
Armand smiled and said, "I sent a secret letter to Mrs. Luo earlier. I estimate that the reply will arrive in the next few days."
Chu Xinghe nodded, "That's good," looking at the endless farmland, "I don't know why this locust plague is so strange."
boom.
A thunderclap exploded in the sky. Chu Xinghe was startled and grabbed Jinglong's arm. "This, this,"
"Nothing, nothing." Jinglong was also startled and hurried to comfort his wife, "Nothing."
Lu Yu was on his way to Shu. The locust plague he caused did not leave the people of Shu at a loss, which made him so angry that he had a mouthful of blood stuck in his heart.
"Asshole, asshole," Lu Yu clenched his fists tightly. There were some things he couldn't go too far with, but, "Asshole!"
As Lu Yu was filled with helplessness and rage, his head suddenly felt dizzy and then he felt a bone-gnawing pain.
With a sudden start, Lu Yu knew that he was being punished.
He had no way to resist this punishment, nor did he dare to resist, so he could only endure it.
At the same time, I also know it in the dark.
No matter how he fights with the empress, it would be extremely disadvantageous to him if too many causes and consequences were implicated by innocent people.
Lu Yu had no choice but to endure and wait for the pain to pass...
The next morning, when Jinglong and others came to the fields, they were confused to see that most of the locusts had disappeared.
"This……"
At this time, Qian Qian frowned and stroked Xiao Hei in his arms.
[Money, money,] the system suddenly said, [Lu Yu now has a loophole to exploit...]
