Chapter 238

Emperor Xuande adopted Zeng Yunfeng's suggestion to gradually infiltrate Mongolia through trade, obtain their information, tie up these Tatar herdsmen who do not want to fight with wool, and weaken the strength of Oala tribe. Jin Yiwei has already infiltrated the grassland tribe like a sieve .

Sometimes a country needs to be like this. It does not start a war in advance, but it needs to be ready to start a war and be ready at all times. Once the war starts, it means that the other party has lost.

Be sure to let the opponent hang a sword above his head at all times. Although the Central Plains does not like to start wars, it is not afraid of wars.

In the three years of Xuande's severe drought, locust plagues occurred in various parts of Gyeonggi. Emperor Zhu Zhanji of Xuande thought that he had lost his morality, and he was about to issue an imperial edict.

"The emperor doesn't need to worry, this is the natural law of the growth of all things, not the work of the locust god." Zeng Yunfeng came out of the class and remonstrated.

"Chen Yanqing, as the Censor of the Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, you blindly flatter the Holy Majesty. It must be because of you that the God of Locusts brought down the plague of locusts." The Censor of Youdu said out of the class.

This person has been against Zeng Yunfeng for a long time, and Zeng Yunfeng didn't even bother to talk to him, and he still got excited.

"Your Majesty, please control the plague of locusts. If there is no effect, then please punish the locusts." Zeng Yunfeng said.

"Okay, I'm sure." Emperor Xuande said.

"Please bestow upon Shang Fang the sword. If there is a real culprit, please rectify the law on the spot!" Zeng Yunfeng continued.

"Sure." Emperor Xuande said with a smile, he wanted to see what tricks Chen Yanqing could come up with.

When Zeng Yunfeng went to the local area, he was very angry. He said that the locust plague was actually a man-made disaster.

The common people are actually very superstitious, and Zeng Yunfeng has no choice but to use a more superstitious method to convince these common people first, this time he will not only treat the symptoms but also the root cause.

Zeng Yunfeng himself is a very superstitious person, it should be said that he himself is a person who is very superstitious by the common people, others say that he can judge yin and judge yang.

There is no way, Zeng Yunfeng came forward to solve this matter, he can only solve it through this more superstitious way.

After Zeng Yunfeng burned incense in the Town God's Temple to invite the gods, he set up a temporary yamen on borrowed land in the Town God's Temple. This yamen opened the trial at night. People from the capital city were invited to come in and listen, but they were not allowed to watch.

The common people also believed that these plagues of locusts were caused by the anger of the locust god, so they honestly listened to Zeng Yunfeng's words and did not dare to look directly into the face of the locust god.

At three o'clock in the night, the news of Zeng Yunfeng's night trial of the locust god spread throughout several counties in the capital, and many ordinary people came to watch the excitement.

"Have you heard that Chen Qingtian is going to interrogate the Locust God, go and have a look." The people cheered and cheered in large numbers.

"Oh, Mr. Chen said that you can only listen, not watch."

"Understood, second uncle, hurry up, the trial will be over in a while." Many ordinary people seemed to be watching a big show.

The formation Zeng Yunfeng specially arranged in this yamen made the sound from this yamen ten times louder than other yamens. When Zeng Yunfeng patted the gavel in this yamen, the sound was like thunder.

The so-called locust god in this yamen was simply created by some means, and there was no way but to coax these ordinary people.

In the middle of the night, Zeng Yunfeng slapped the gavel and said loudly: "Let the locust god of Gyeonggi!".

"Mighty! Wu!" Many yamen servants came to the hall in a mighty voice, in fact, their legs were all shaking.

At this time, a large swarm of locusts suddenly flew into the lobby, and the crowd of common people outside saw this large swarm of locusts.

Entering the hall, the locusts were engulfed and turned into a human form, and the legs of many government servants who had been taken away were weak, and they could only stand with water and fire sticks.

The officials listening to the trial are almost peeing their pants. Who is not afraid?

"Who is your surname and what is your job?" Zeng Yunfeng said in surprise.

There was also a whimpering sound from the Locust God.

"Bold, at the foot of the imperial city, the emperor ruled the land and unreasonably imposed disasters, resulting in starvation everywhere. You, a little Beijing locust god, dare to make a mistake. I'm sending you here today, just to clarify the legal punishment, so as to imitate others." Zeng Yunfeng clapped his hands. Gavel asked.

Locust God also heard a sour and inaudible sob
"Okay, I promise not to kill your descendants quickly, but you violated the rules of heaven. I got the emperor's decree to act on behalf of the heavens. I will let you go today. I will sentence you to be struck by thunder and burned by fire. Convince me." Zeng Yunfeng calmed down and asked in a cold voice.

The locust god heard sobs again, sour and hard to hear
"Okay, I hope you will do more good deeds and restore the god's position. Come on, the left and right star officials will execute him on the spot and execute him!" Zeng Yunfeng patted the gavel and then dropped the command arrow and said.

Many officials stretched their necks to see who was going to carry out the execution, and the eyes of a few yamen servants in the field trembled as they looked towards them.

There was a burst of thunder and thunder, and everyone's ears were ringing, and then the Locust God in the lobby suddenly burned into a scorched locust. Earn an eye.

"The chief evil has been eliminated, retreat!" Then he slapped the gavel again and said.

The common people outside could only hear the thunderous interrogation sounds in the lobby of the Town God's Temple, and the locust god also heard bursts of sour and inaudible sobs, but they didn't know what they were talking about.

All I know is that a thunderstorm flashed across the sky in the end, and then the interrogation ended, and then the Qingtian master came out surrounded by many officials.

"My fellow citizens, the Locust God of the capital has unreasonably caused disasters, and the criminals have violated the rules of heaven. I have brought them to justice in accordance with the decree of the Emperor Renhuang. He agreed to repay the cause and effect, and use the body of his descendants to repay the losses of the people. His descendants can be hunted down, but not exterminated , the way of heaven is permanent, we must save a chance." Zeng Yunfeng said.

Then Zeng Yunfeng said which locusts can be eaten, which ones cannot be eaten, which locusts can be eaten by chickens and ducks, how to clean up the locusts in the future, and how to kill the locust eggs.

After the first early adopters stood up, the people began to accept it, and gradually this locust plague could not be called a very severe locust plague. In fact, a locust plague of this scale is nothing, but the common people are afraid.

Zeng Yunfeng pushed behind to collect a large number of these dried locusts and make them into protein powder to feed chickens and ducks. These are high-concentration feeds that are not available in ordinary times.

These chickens and ducks are also very good for the soldiers of the army to eat. Afterwards, locust plagues broke out in various places, and Zeng Yunfeng strictly enforced the locust control regulations. This was agreed between Zeng Yunfeng and the locust god.

Although it sounds absurd, but if these superstitious common people believe it now, there is nothing you can do about it.

The rest of the officials naturally cooperated tacitly, and the locust gods were all killed. Whoever dares to come up and stab them is not looking for death.

However, seven officials were handed over to the Ministry of Punishment for pulling up carrots and mud, and five were sent into exile by ransacking their homes.

Disasters like locust plagues are actually very difficult to directly stop. Unlike floods and droughts, they can only be prevented.

After Zeng Yunfeng finished the control of the locust plague, he returned to the capital.

"I've made you worry, I've been out for a few months, and you're all haggard." Zeng Yunfeng said
"It's okay, let's eat quickly." Fang Yanran said as she served the food and wine.

"I heard that you executed the Gingji Locust God on the spot?" Fang Yanran said hesitantly.

"Whoever you listen to, it's all fake." Zeng Yunfeng said with a smile.

"But it's spread all over the capital!" Fang Yanran asked again in doubt.

"Don't believe me, you're so distracted, eat and go to bed early at night." Zeng Yunfeng patted Fang Yanran's hand and said.

Zeng Yunfeng was also very helpless, he made up the matter of the locust god with his thoughts, to fool the common people to kill the locusts and eliminate their fear, but it was also drinking poison to quench their thirst, and the locust control strategy he was going to submit to Emperor Xuande was the radical solution.

Fang Yanran was actually worried about her husband, because she found something strange in herself. She is forty years old, but her skin is still like that of a twenty-eighth girl.

The husband's face did not change, but the husband seemed to be used to it, which made people feel a little flustered. Although she also followed him to practice some health-preserving skills, the effect was too exaggerated.

This time, hearing that Chen Yanqing was going to rectify the locust god on the spot, she couldn't help but panic. The husband who has lived with her for more than twenty years made her feel more and more strange. She felt that he had many secrets that she didn't know.
