Husband has a sweetheart

In the dark night, the light of fire is completely irresistible to insects.Countless locusts flapped their wings and flew towards the fire, one after another.

Lu Wei narrowed his eyes, put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "Moths fly into the flame!"

Everyone knows this, but no one has thought of using this method to kill locusts!
Officials and farmers have already prepared various tools, such as nets, shovels, etc., to hunt and kill locusts.

Many locusts were scorched by the fire, and a strong aroma spread over them.

Some children watching the fun shrugged their noses and exclaimed with drooling: "It smells so good!"

"Go and try it!" Zhang Yuqing encouraged. This thing is high in protein and low in fat, and is a good food.

Du Jingyi smiled and shook his head, his boss was really different.

After determining the method of exterminating locusts, Zhang Yuqing asked Kou Leguo to formulate a task. Each village would hand over locusts on a per-person basis, with each person weighing fifty kilograms.If it is difficult to pay tax on grain, the payment can be postponed or reduced, but this thing cannot be discounted.

Lu Wei kept his word and sent an urgent memorial to Emperor Anping on the second day after returning to Baochuan City. He said that he was shocked and saddened to learn about the frequent locust plagues in various places. He could not sleep at night. Finally, he came up with an idea. A unique trick is to let the auspicious auspiciousness of the daughter of Phoenix Ming shine on the earth, and ask the queen to come out of the palace to inspect the areas where the locust plague occurs, and use the auspicious light to scare away the locusts.

Emperor Anping almost fainted due to lack of energy.

Return the auspicious light?Where did that stupid woman Zhang Yuying get her auspicious light?It was the old bald donkey Ku De who deceived him!Just point out a idiot and lie to him that he is the daughter of Phoenix Life, he is a great injustice!

Now that he is married and has a son, he can only admit it by pinching his nose.

But do we really want that idiot Zhang Yuying to patrol the area where the locusts are plagued, without revealing her secret on the spot?If the people spread rumors that the daughter of Phoenix Life is fake, then wouldn't he, the True Dragon Emperor, also be fake?

Emperor Anping gritted his teeth and replied to the memorial, "The strategy presented by Aiqing is very good, don't offer it again in the future!"

As soon as Zhang Yuqing's decree to eradicate locusts came out, in less than half a month, the number of locusts in Liangzhou decreased significantly, and it was almost impossible to see swarms of locust armies anymore.

Lu Wei's previous memorial was purely to disgust Emperor Anping, and he did not risk the lives of the people in other states. After Zhang Yuqing's method was personally tested and effective, he immediately reported the detailed method of exterminating locusts without any reservations. It was written into the memorial and noted in many places that it was an effective strategy for killing locusts that his wife Zhang Yuqing and several agricultural officials worked day and night in the fields to find.

His wife is not a monster, she is a wise, kind, and unparalleled Qilin Empress!
After writing the memorial, Mr. Lin held Lu Wei's hand and said, "My lord, have you thought about it yet? If I say the word "kill the locusts," I'm afraid those pedantic and flattering people will criticize my lord again!"

Emperor Anping probably took the opportunity to get angry and reprimanded Lu Wei for disrespecting the imperial power and being ambitious.

In the end it came to a thankless ending.

The emperor's eloquent words labeled Lu Wei a traitor, and Lu Wei's reputation would definitely be greatly damaged. Although it would not shake Lu Wei's foundation, the emperor's repeated reprimands and suppressions were also detrimental to Lu Wei.

Lu Wei looked at the still-undried memorial and said solemnly: "My wife said something that touched me greatly. She said that people should only do good deeds and not worry about the future."

Exterminating locusts will benefit the country and the people, nothing more.

Mr. Lin clapped his hands and cheered, "Okay! Good words, but do good deeds and don't ask about the future!"

This was truly the best sentence he had ever heard. As expected of the Lord and Madam, it would be difficult to find anyone with the same magnanimity!

A man dies for his confidant, and he feels once again that he has followed the right person.Only such a lord and mistress is worthy of him devoting himself to death, and worthy of him devoting all his strength to assist and devote all his wisdom.

Many people in other places have already received the locust extermination strategy sent by Zhang Yuqing. In order to protect themselves, they have begun to kill the locusts quietly, saving a little of their crops.

However, at this time, the locust plague in Sizhou and Youzhou has reached a very serious level, and this year's grain harvest is a foregone conclusion.In order to show his benevolence, Emperor Anping ordered officials' salaries to be halved. As the queen, Zhang Yuying also set an example and halved the harem expenses.

But the irony is that the tax imposed by Emperor Anping on the people did not mean to reduce a penny at all.

Someone summed it up: Emperor Anping took a lot of things from the people, but what he gave to the officials and concubines was less than half. The people had no food, the officials had no salaries, and the concubines had no jewelry and clothes. The whole thing was accomplished. Only Emperor Anping gained the outcome.

There was a huge quarrel in the court over the locust extermination method publicly proposed by Liangzhou. It was not that the method was effective or not, but whether it could exterminate the locusts.

After all, the word "locust" sounds the same as "emperor". Whoever wants to destroy locusts is being disrespectful!
What's more, who doesn't know that Emperor Anping dislikes Lu Wei?Lu Wei's proposal of this plan at this time must be an open defiance of the imperial power and an act of arrogance!

What surprised everyone was that Jin Yongkang, who had always been eager to step on Lu Wei and scold him bloody when he got the chance, was silent this time and held the wat board when he went to court. Wandering in the sky.

Some people teased him about why he changed his gender. Did he want to please Lu Wei because he saw Lu Wei gaining power? Jin Yongkang became anxious, "It was Mrs. Lu who came up with this method to kill locusts, not that bitch Lu Wei! What good can I do?" opposing?"

He and Lu Wei have been at odds with each other for 1 years!

Everyone was shocked. Jin Yongkang and Lu Wei were enemies, but his true love with Mrs. Lu was true. Is that so?
I heard that Jin Yongkang also sneaked into Liangzhou and eloped with Mrs. Lu!
Could it be that Mr. Lu fought for love back then?Wonderful and wonderful...

Jin Yongkang looked at the various wonderful expressions of everyone and was furious. He said sternly: "Don't think nonsense! The locusts have eaten up all the food, so the people are not allowed to rebel? I am a minister of Daxia. What I have done Everything starts from Daxia, there is absolutely no selfishness!”

To explain is to cover up, and to cover up is to say something is wrong.

Everyone ate the melon and left with satisfaction.

The small-scale gossip in the capital has not spread to Liangzhou. After all, everyone only dares to indulge in obscenity in their hearts and quietly satisfy their abnormal psychology. They dare not really say it in public. Jin Yongkang is a mad dog who bites people everywhere. The emperor's cousin is deeply favored, who dares to offend him?

As for Lu Wei, no one dared to offend him. If he offended Jin Yongkang, he would be bitten on the calf at most. If he offended Lu Wei, his neck might be bitten off.

Emperor Anping secretly hated Lu Wei for being meddlesome. In his eyes, Lu Wei was not serving the country or the people. He was clearly just trying to grab the credit and not take him seriously as the emperor.

Emperor Anping let Lu Wei's piece go for two days, and then found time to scold Lu Wei, scolding him for despising the imperial power and disrespecting the emperor.But as for what the officials below did, Emperor Anping turned a blind eye.

The words "killing locusts" sounded very uncomfortable to him, and it was Lu Wei who proposed it. Naturally, he was opposed to it, but the locusts had eaten up the food, and those mud-legged people would rebel when they were hungry.

After weighing the two aspects, Emperor Anping simply ignored it.If the people have the courage, they can kill the locusts. If they don't, they will starve to death.

Liangzhou collected the collected locusts to the government, dried them in a dry place, and cut them into fine pieces. They became the best feed for chickens, ducks, goose, and fish, and no trace was wasted.

Thanks to the efforts of Zhang Yuqing and others, the locust plague that was supposed to cause a massive reduction in production and harvests only made its first appearance in Liangzhou, then went silent and disappeared without a trace.

At the Lu family in the capital, until the Dragon Boat Festival, the letter Lu Dewen had been waiting for every day finally arrived.

To be honest, although he valued his legitimate son Lu Wei the most, what he loved most in his heart was the bastard born to his aunts.After all, his aunt and concubine were obedient and would please him, but Duan Shu and Lu Wei became angry when they saw him, as if he owed them 800 million taels of silver.

Lu Dewen fell into deep thought as he looked at several letters on the table with different fonts but almost identical contents.

Why do the bastards say that they are in great health, eat delicious food, have tight schedules, are full of energy, have learned many skills, and are making progress every day. They have completely escaped from the decadent and backward life, and are no longer the tears of the old era. ?

It was almost as if someone had given them a sample letter and asked them to copy it...

No, impossible!Who would do such a boring thing?

Since the sons all say that they are living a good life, what else is wrong?Lu Wei knew that no matter how cold he looked, he was still kind and soft on the inside, and he would never treat his concubines badly.

His sons are all marching forward in their official careers under the leadership of their eldest brother!
But having said that, Lu Dewen stroked his beard and fell into deep thought. What official titles did Lu Wei give his brothers?Fourth grade or fifth grade?Why didn't it say anything in the letter?Is it to give him a big surprise?

At this time, the Zhang family was in the palace, having a Dragon Boat Festival family dinner with the queen.

After dinner, Mrs. Zhang and the old lady were summoned by the Queen Mother to chat. Emperor Anping went to have some fun on his own. Zhang Yuying finally got a chance to breathe and talked with her younger brothers and sisters.

Naturally, he is talking about the recently very popular topic of "locust extermination".

Zhang Yuying was so angry that she scolded Zhang Yuqing. They had finally come up with a plan to falsely accuse Zhang Yuqing of being the reincarnation of an evildoer and causing the locust plague. Unexpectedly, Liangzhou actually announced a method to exterminate the locusts. Return to Yicheng.

Qilin Empress's name became even louder.

Zhang Yuying said something, and Zhang Yuqian echoed something.

"Those who seek fame and reputation! They are always pretentious!" Zhang Yuying was tired of scolding. She took a sip of tea to moisten her throat and continued to scold, "What does a country girl like her know about how to exterminate locusts? There are so many capable people who can't exterminate locusts. Is she the only one who can do it? This is hilarious! Lu Wei really knows how to put gold on her face!"

Zhang Yuqian was indignant, "Brother Lu was blinded by lard and was deceived by that broom star!"

The two siblings scolded each other for a long time, then realized that the only words they spoke were like cross talk, with no cheering audience, so they looked at Zhang Yucheng and Zhang Yushu, who had been silent.

Zhang Yujin was still young and was simply ignored by his siblings.

The empress, who was dressed in gleaming gold and dazzling wealth, spoke, "Yucheng and Yushu, what do you two think?"
