Datang: Begin with Li Shimin as a father

Chapter 40 Dad, If You Are Lonely, You Can Find Another One!
After watching Li Gen leave Anshanfang.

Li Shimin got into the carriage driven by Li Junxian and went straight to the palace!

.........

"Chuan Zhao Taishi Bureau, all the people, all have an audience!"

Li Delu, the chief servant, had a troubled expression on hearing His Majesty's words.

Li Delu really doesn't know how many people there are in the Taishi Bureau.

Except for one Tai Shiling, he doesn't know anyone else!

"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up, find Tai Shiling, won't the others be taken care of?"

Li Shimin's words made Li Delu suddenly realize.

"Your Majesty, you are too confused."

Li Delu hurriedly retreated.

Li Shimin was restless in the imperial study.

The amount of information revealed by Li Gen just now is too large, and Li Shimin has not yet digested it all.

The worst drought in a century.

Biggest locust plague ever!

It's no wonder Li Shimin isn't worried!
The royal case is full of memorials.

Li Shimin picked up a memorial, but couldn't calm down to review it.

After waiting like this for more than half an hour, hurried and chaotic footsteps sounded outside the imperial study.

All the people from the Taishi Bureau are here.

Taishi Bureau, as a Qingshui department in charge of astronomical phenomena.

Even if they think about it, they can't figure out why His Majesty ordered them all to wait.

"Minister, see Your Majesty. Please forgive me for being late, Your Majesty!"

Taishi Bureau, Taishi ordered Zhang Dakang to lead everyone to respectfully pay respects.

"Free gift!"

Li Shimin's anxious heart calmed down a little when he saw the people from the Taishi Bureau coming.

"Dakang, is everyone here?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, all twelve employees of the Taishi Bureau are here."

Hearing Zhang Dakang's answer, Li Shimin nodded in satisfaction.

It was really difficult for him to call everyone to wait in half an hour.

"Today, the reason why I ordered you to come here is because the spring plowing is about to start. I would like to ask you, how is the sky recently? How is the sky this year?"

Li Shimin's voice fell to the ground.

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay!

Although it is said that Taishi Ling is the department in charge of astronomical phenomena.

However, there are only a handful of people who really understand astronomical phenomena.

Most of them are dawdling.

After all, the Taishi Bureau is a clear water department, and it can hardly get any oil or water.

Facing His Majesty's inquiry, Taishi Ling Zhang Dakang was also confused.

How should this question be answered?

If it doesn't work out, it's a crime of deceiving the emperor!
When the imperial study room was quiet, a figure stood up!
"Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Li Shimin followed the voice, with a gratified smile on his face.

He knew this person, because he had served in Prince Qin's Mansion for many years.

When Li Shimin fought in the world, this person also served as a reporter and joined the army!
"Chunfeng, tell me about it!"

Li Shimin recalled the scene six years ago, when the weather was clear and cloudless, but it was extremely hot.

Li Chunfeng, who joined the army in the recording room, tried his best to prevent Li Shimin from continuing to march.

Li Shimin was puzzled and asked why the army was stopped from moving forward.

"Your Highness, within an hour, there will be strong winds and thunderstorms. If the army moves forward at this time, there will be many dangers."

With a dubious attitude, Li Shimin accepted Li Chunfeng's suggestion.

The army camped in the open high slope area and temporarily took a rest.

Sure enough, with the passage of time, black clouds suddenly rose in the originally clear sky.

Immediately afterwards, there was a strong wind, lightning and thunder!
Huge thunder sounded not far above the head!
The war horses were all terrified and panicked!

Immediately afterwards, the downpour fell from the sky!

Li Shimin was in the tent, watching the sudden change of weather.

Fortunately, I followed Li Chunfeng's advice.

Otherwise, it will definitely cause damage to soldiers and horses.

Food and grass will also be destroyed, and the loss is immeasurable.

Afterwards, Li Shimin rewarded Li Chunfeng heavily.

After Li Shimin ascended the throne, he specially arranged Li Chunfeng to the Taishi Bureau.

As the so-called concern is chaos!
Li Shimin, who was so worried just now, actually forgot about Li Chunfeng's affairs in the Taishi Bureau!

"Your Majesty, I found out that since the beginning of spring, there has not been a drop of rain, and the temperature difference between day and night is higher than normal."

"At this time in previous years, it should be the season when the southwest wind blows, but at this time the northwest wind is still strong."

"Your Majesty, all of the above are signs of severe drought!"

Li Shimin's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.

It seems that what Gener said is true.

This year's severe drought, I'm afraid we can't escape it.

A year of severe drought is accompanied by plagues of locusts.

It really made matters worse, and it gave Li Shimin a headache.

After the members of the Taishi Bureau left, Li Shimin went straight to the Lizheng Hall.

"Guanyin maidservant, there is very bad news!"

After hearing Li Shimin's words, Empress Changsun's complexion suddenly changed.

She held Li Shimin's hand nervously and asked.

"Erro, what happened?"

Li Shimin carefully told the words of Li Gen and Li Chunfeng to Empress Changsun.

Empress Changsun's tears welled up in her eyes.

Thousands of miles away!

Locusts blot out the sun!

It's shocking to think about it.

"Erlang, the people suffer the most."

"Guanyin servant girl, I think the same as you. What should my people do with such a natural disaster?"

"Right now, there is only one way, and we can only wait until tomorrow morning."

Li Shimin lied about himself and told Empress Changsun about his job in Jingyang.

"Erlang, Gener, he really has a solution."

Empress Changsun's beautiful eyes sparkled instantly.

"Guanyin maidservant, that child boasted that my chance to become a great success has come, and I think there will be no falsehood!"

.........

Tonight, Li Shimin almost stayed up all night!
Empress Changsun was also tossing and turning on the bed.

In a manor outside Chang'an City.

Li Gen was writing hard all night.

In front of Li Gen is a stack of papers, all rendered by his pen and ink.

"My lord, the morning bell is about to ring in less than half an hour."

Hongxiu and Tianxiang beat Li Gen's shoulder in distress.

The care and care of the two maids made Li Gen feel warm in his heart.

"Let's go, accompany me to see off the master!"

Li Gen carefully rolled up the paper and stuffed it into the sleeve.

Chunming Gate!
Among the three city gates on the east side of Chang'an City, the middle gate is located.

When Li Gen arrived, the place was already full of people.

With the morning bell ringing.

The gate of Chunming Gate opened slowly.

"Daddy, I'm here!"

When Li Gen saw his father's carriage coming out, he waved his arms vigorously.

At this time, the people outside the city had already entered the city.

Li Shimin jumped off the carriage and walked quickly to Li Gen.

"Father, bring all of these with you. My child has explained some things that are difficult to understand in detail."

Li Gen took out the paper from his sleeve, and handed all the papers he wrote all night to his father.

Looking at Li Gen whose eyes were bloodshot, Li Shimin felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.

"Master, the young master has not slept all night, and has been writing and drawing."

The words of Hongxiu and Tianxiang made Li Shimin's eyes moist instantly.

"Father, let's go quickly, a big man, why is he still crying and crying miserably!"

Li Shimin reached out and patted Li Gen's shoulder, turned around and walked to the carriage.

"Father, if a person is too lonely and you meet a suitable one, find another one!"
