mad concubine

Chapter 216 Reward

Hearing what Mo Xi said, everyone at the scene was stunned, only to hear the woman then said indifferently: "In fact, it is not difficult to exterminate the locusts. In Langxian County, where the disaster is as severe, you only need to do it." By three o'clock, this concubine guarantees that the disaster will be reduced quickly within three days, but it must be done according to my request."

The magistrate gritted his teeth, as long as he didn't lose his head, he didn't care if he ate locusts, even if he was asked to eat shit, he would bear it.

On that day, the main street in Lang County became a fried locust gourmet street, and the magistrate ordered his men to put all the captured locusts into Yousnail, to see where they fled and how quickly they multiplied.

Gritting his teeth, the magistrate took the lead to eat first. When he closed his eyes and took the first bite, his frowning brows gradually relaxed. It really felt the same as eating meat, and the meat quality of this locust seemed to be even stronger. Refreshing, I only heard him say to the subordinates who fried the locusts: "Don't fry it too old, it tastes better when it's tender."

Mo Xi on the side couldn't help covering his mouth and laughing out loud, even Long Qianjue's lips on the side couldn't help but smile a little bit, it seemed that this woman had a lot of skills, he couldn't help wrapping his big palm around the woman's slender waist, Whispering in her ear, "Do you think those thousands of locusts hovering in the fields can be eaten by just these people?"

Facing the man's questioning, Mo Xi deliberately kept things a secret: "You will know in the evening. Now you just need to send some people to follow my orders."

A hint of warmth flashed across Long Qianjue's deep eyes. Looking at the confidence on the woman's face, he also had confidence in controlling this locust plague.

"Okay, how many people do you want, I will send them to you immediately."

In this way, Mo Xi took hundreds of guards together and dug a hole around the field stalks. It should not be too shallow or too deep. She dug according to her requirements. Later, she found that the area was too large. If only the people in the yamen It must be far from enough, so Mo Xi called on the farmers to dig together, because it is related to their own farm harvest, and the farmers are also very enthusiastic and active.

There are many people and strength, and the masses are called on to dig the pit together, and the task is completed before dark, and everyone piles firewood into the pit according to Mo Xi's request...

Seeing Mo Xi commanding everyone in an orderly manner, Long Qianjue, who was idling by the side, couldn't help but have doubts flashing across his eyes. As far as he knew, Mo Xi was just the daughter of the prime minister's mansion. How could she know so much? ?Leaving aside her excellent memory, where did she learn her medical skills?Moreover, her skill seems to be good, and she also knows the art of riding and shooting. The last thing she expected is that she can also destroy the plague of locusts?The more I think about it, the more incredible it becomes. There seem to be too many strange things in it.

However, all of this is just buried in his heart. To him, she is like an inexhaustible treasure, and he can always find unexpected surprises, but at the same time of surprises, he has to worry more .

It was already dark. For the arduous task of exterminating the locusts, everyone did not have dinner and was busy all the time. At this moment, following Mo Xi's order, all the firewood in the pit was lit together, and there were still people in the field who were in charge of beating gongs and drums Shouting, at this moment the locusts began to fly randomly. It is natural for insects to rush to the fire at night, just like moths to the fire. These locusts all flew towards the light of Mars, and they were burned to death alive.

Seeing that this method seems to be working, the farmers who beat the gongs and drums are even happier. Everyone works harder and harder. They only hope that the locusts can be eradicated as soon as possible, and there will be a good harvest today.

In the early morning of the next day, a guard rushed to report that many locusts were burned to death in the deep pits filled with dry firewood that the Crown Princess had ordered to be dug yesterday. The common people were overjoyed.

According to this method, Mo Xi ordered all places where the locust plague was serious to follow the same method, and soon achieved great results. The magistrate of Lang County even became addicted to eating locusts, and asked people to deal with the newly caught locusts. Chop it up and put it in the made noodles, and use it as stuffing for buns. Everyone is invited to eat together.

In this way, Mo Xi and his party solved the big problem of the locust plague in less than seven days. Not only did Long Qian absolutely admire her, but also let the people of Dongli Kingdom know that Dongli has a virtuous and virtuous prince. concubine.

After several turnarounds, when she returned to Li Wang's Mansion, Hong Ling was already waiting at the door, and rushed forward as soon as she saw Mo Xi: "Miss, you are finally back, this servant misses you to death."

"Cough cough..." Chi Yan's deep and mellow cough came from the side, Hong Ling's cheeks flushed for a while, and then she came to her senses, and hurriedly greeted Long Qianjue who was beside her.

"My servant greets the lord." Hong Ling drooped her little head. She was so excited when she saw the young lady just now that she forgot to greet Da Hong Qianjue for a while, but luckily Chi Yan reminded her secretly.

"Pack up your things tonight and follow us into the palace tomorrow." Long Qianjue said with a blank expression on his face, and walked into the palace first, leaving some space for Mo Xi's master and servant. , he knew that these two women were like sisters, and since they hadn't seen each other for so many days, they must have a lot to say.

In the early morning of the next day, several teams of chariots and horses set off from the Li Palace to enter the palace. Long Qianjue rode on a snow-white steed, dressed in white clothes that surpassed the snow, and the golden morning sun poured down, covering his whole body with a faint halo. Sacred and inviolable like a god.

Entering through the majestic palace gate, Hong Ling couldn't help looking out from the window of the carriage secretly. This was the first time she had entered the Dongli Palace. Compared with the Nancang Kingdom's palace, what kind of grandeur could it be?

Inside the Dongli Palace, it is still resplendent and resplendent. Looking around, clusters of pavilions and pavilions inlaid with gold and silver are exquisite, chic, magnificent and majestic. The imperial garden passing by along the way is even more beautiful. Lush and entwined with ancient vines, they are all tens of thousands of years old, embellishing the garden with interest.

Following the previous route, the carriage kept heading towards the Dexin Hall, but just after walking for a while, the carriage stopped suddenly, Mo Xi and Hong Ling in the carriage looked at each other, Hong Ling thought they had arrived, Just as he was about to get up, Xi grabbed the catkin, because Mo Xi knew that it should not be so fast to reach the Dexin Hall.

Just when Mo Xi's master and servant were puzzled, they heard Long Qianjue's voice from outside: "I greet my mother. Why is my mother here? I just happened to pass by, and she is still waiting for my son?"
