Inside the Jinluan Hall.

Wu Zhao's eyes were filled with anger.

On the side, Shangguan Wan'er was also shocked when she heard this, and couldn't help asking, "How could a locust plague break out in Guanzhong?"

Wu Zhao took a deep breath and said, "Liu Wu, the governor of Guanzhong County, wrote that there has been a drought in Guanzhong for several months, and locust eggs have multiplied in large numbers in fertile fields. There are already a small number of locusts. If we continue to let things go, a huge locust plague will definitely break out."

"At that time, the land will be bare for thousands of miles, and people will die of hunger everywhere!"

"Therefore, it's urgent to be eight hundred miles away. Please take measures to deal with it as soon as possible!"

When Shangguan Wan'er heard these words, her beautiful face suddenly became ugly.

She also realized the seriousness of the matter.

Locusts passed by, leaving no grass growing.

Shangguan Wan'er even thought of some records about the locust plague in her mind.

In the third year of the Qing Dynasty, a huge locust plague broke out in Qingzhou. Historical records said: "The locusts covered the sky, blocked the windows and crowded the houses, leaving no room for space!"

In the fifth year of the Qian Dynasty, a locust plague broke out in Youzhou. Historical records said: "The locusts have eaten all the seedlings, and some people support the dead!"

Historically, locust plagues were a disaster once they broke out.

Not to mention that the land of Guanzhong is a plain land of Daqian, with many fertile fields and many people. Once a locust plague breaks out, it will be absolutely catastrophic.

"I'm sending you the order, and I'm urgently calling the third-rank officials to gather in the imperial study. I'll only give them a quarter of an hour. If they don't give it a quarter of an hour, they'll have to bear the consequences!"

Wu Zhao took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

This locust plague must be nipped in the cradle, otherwise once the people have no food to eat, it will cause a huge blow to her prestige!

It even set off a massive rebellion.

This is definitely not what Wu Zhao wants to see.

"yes!"

Shangguan Wan'er made a move to leave.

Wu Zhao shouted again, "Wait!"

Shangguan Wan'er paused and looked at Wu Zhao.

"Gao Yang, the grandson of the Duke of Xuanding and a member of the Ministry of Household Affairs, is here to listen together!"

Shangguan Wan'er's face was stunned.

But she didn't speak, but turned and left.

Although she had no favorable impression of Gao Yang and even disliked his official style, she had to say that Gao Yang did not follow the ordinary path.

In times of crisis, one more person means more strength.

Otherwise, it will be a complete disaster if the locusts cross the border and cover the ground thousands of miles away.

The court must prepare a response as soon as possible.

"Bang!"

After Shangguan Wan'er left, Wu Zhao slapped the memorial in his hand on the table.

Her phoenix eyes were full of anger.

"I just took over the throne, first there was a flood in Guangyang County, and then there was a locust plague in Guanzhong!"

"Is it true that God wants to kill me?"

Wu Zhao's angry voice resounded throughout the hall, and for a moment, the eunuchs and maids knelt down one after another.

"..."

At this time, at the same time.

Gao Yang took Chen Sheng and a few guards out of the gate of Duke Dingguo's mansion.

As soon as he traveled through time, he was involved in the empress' edict for seeking talents, and then he was forced to go to Linjiang City. He didn't even take a good look at Daqian's Chang'an City.

This time, he had the leisure to appreciate the customs and customs of Chang'an City.

Furthermore, Gao Yang also wanted to see what kind of business the merchants in Chang'an City were doing to see if they were profitable.

As a dandy with no money in his pocket, is this okay?

Daqian Chang'an City has a total of 108 squares, which runs through the entire Chang'an City. The main road is Zhuque Street. The rents of shops along the way are not cheap. You can go directly to the Imperial City along Zhuque Street!

As Gao Yang wandered around, there were crowds of pedestrians on the street, and the cries of vendors could be heard constantly, making it extremely lively.

The entire city of Chang'an is full of vitality.

What surprised Gao Yang even more was that there were some barbarians with high nose bridges and deep eye sockets on the streets of Daqian.

Through understanding, this group of barbarians came from overseas thousands of miles away.

Today, the seven kingdoms in the world, Qi, Chu, Zhao, Wei, Han, Yan, and Qian, have formed a balance among themselves. Counting the time, they have been at peace for decades.

In the past ten years, the prestige of Duke Dingguo has been declining again and again. There is nothing that can be done about it. After all, during the war years, military generals have a high status, but once there is peace, civilian officials will have the right to speak and start to suppress military generals.

This is a general trend that is difficult to contend with.

"Sir, where are we going?"

Behind him, Chen Sheng couldn't help but said curiously.

"Go to Prince Rong's Mansion."

Soon, Gao Yang took Chen Sheng and a few guards to a restaurant outside Prince Rong's mansion, following his memory.

Outside the window on the second floor, Gao Yang looked at the main entrance of Prince Rong's residence.

From this angle, you can clearly see everything happening at the gate of Prince Rong's Mansion.

Gao Tianlong has already boasted about Haikou, and Prince Rong has to find a way to deal with it.

Dead.

In his previous life, Gao Yang was always on the edge of danger. Setting up a scheme involves both risks and benefits. If you make a lot of money, it is also very dangerous if you are discovered.

Being beaten is considered a light punishment. In serious cases, you will be sent to the police station or even lose your life!

Therefore, Gao Yang has never been a soft-hearted person.

This Wu Cheng dared to plot against him, so he should take revenge!

Not to mention that the Duke Dingguo Mansion treated him well, which was his capital for being free and easy in this world. The struggle in the court was complicated. The Prince Rong Mansion had taken the lead in showing his sword. If one plan failed, they would definitely attack again.

For this kind of security risk, Gao Yang felt that it was better to strike first.

In the struggle in the court, whoever loses will be wiped out.

"Young Master, a group of people came out."

Suddenly, Chen Sheng spoke.

Gao Yang looked and saw a young man in gorgeous clothes and with a rebellious face came out, followed by several followers.

With just one glance, Gao Yang could tell that this was Wu Cheng, the son of Prince Rong, and the culprit who tricked the original owner into revealing the edict to seek talents.

Gao Yang's eyes were cold.

He was lucky and didn't have to wait long to see Wu Cheng.

But it was normal. There were no mobile phones in ancient times, and ordinary playboys couldn't stay at home. They brought their followers to bully men and women, and indulged in sensual pleasures.

"Do you remember this person?" Gao Yang looked at Chen Sheng and asked.

Chen Sheng nodded, eager to try: "Remember, does the master have any instructions?"

If there was no probation period, Chen Sheng would not be so panicked, but when he heard about the three-month probation period, Chen Sheng wanted to show off.

"These few days, you will keep an eye on Wu Cheng, the son of Prince Rong. Whenever he comes out, you will follow him and find out his daily routine."

"This should not be a problem, right?"

Gao Yang poured a glass of water and said to Chen Sheng.

"Don't worry, sir. Tracking and killing are all above the standard for me."

Chen Sheng was full of confidence, staring at Wu Cheng who was leaving the mansion.

Gao Yang was a little curious, "Why don't you ask what I'm going to do?"

Chen Sheng smiled, "As a servant, I'll just do it. As for the rest, it's not my fault."

"Besides, seeing your attitude, you're definitely not going to invite the son of Prince Rong to dinner."

Gao Yang's eyes were full of satisfaction. Chen Sheng's understanding and courage were both good.

If ordinary people heard that they were monitoring the son of Prince Rong, they would probably pee their pants, but Chen Sheng was calm.

He is indeed a useful talent.

"Go."

As Gao Yang spoke, Chen Sheng also left the restaurant and followed the direction Wu Cheng left to blend into the crowd without a trace.

"Zhao Da, do you have any knockout drugs or something like that? Aphrodisiacs are also good." Gao Yang looked at a soldier named Zhao Da in Dingguo Mansion.

Zhao Da was embarrassed, "Young Master, there is no such a lowly thing in the Duke Dingguo's Mansion."

"Which girl did you like? Do you want to knock her out and take her away, or do you want to force her?"

Gao Yang's face darkened, "Does this young master look like such a vicious person?"

Zhao Da nodded hurriedly, and then shook his head quickly.

Gao Yang: "..."

Zhao Da said with a stiff face, "Young Master, you don't know, since the monkey show in your court, the people of Chang'an are afraid of you like a tiger."

"Linjiang City's methods are even more frightening to merchants."

Gao Yang's mouth twitched, and he said why some people looked at him with strange eyes when they were walking on the streets of Chang'an.

"Waiter, pay the bill." Gao Yang shouted.

The waiter of the restaurant came over with a smile on his face, "This guest, the total consumption is 103 coins."

Gao Yang touched his body and felt a little embarrassed.

Damn!

I almost forgot that he is penniless now.

"Zhao Da, please settle the bill." Gao Yang said.

Zhao Da touched his body and was a little embarrassed, "Master, I, I don't have any money either..."

The other Gao family members also shook their heads.

The waiter's eyes changed instantly.

Gao Yang's scalp tingled. It would be embarrassing if the Duke of Dingguo was considered to be eating a free meal.

"Ahem!"

Just as Gao Yang was thinking about whether to ask Zhao Da to wash the dishes in the kitchen to pay off his debt, a crisp cough sounded.

Gao Yang looked in the direction of the sound and saw Song Qingqing wearing a green long dress, sitting four or five tables away from him with a cold face.

There were several exquisite side dishes on the table, and two maids followed behind her.

The cough was made by her.

After Song Qingqing heard Gao Yang's methods from Song Li, she couldn't believe it.

Raise the grain price to attract merchants, then open the warehouse to release grain, forcing grain merchants to trample on each other, causing the grain price to plummet, and even proposed to use work instead of relief.

She regretted it secretly after hearing this. She thought Gao Yang was a playboy and a waste, but she didn't expect that he was a potential stock.

She immediately

She felt that she had to find a way to stabilize Gao Yang, and it would be best to keep Cui Xinghe and Gao Yang at the same time and observe for a while.

But after all, she had personally gone to the Dingguo Mansion to break off the engagement, and it would be too shameless to go again.

So she thought that Gao Yang was not hiding his shortcomings and was being framed, and he might have some ideas about Prince Rong's Mansion, so she came here specially to take a look.

Unexpectedly, she just happened to meet Gao Yang with his people.

But what happened next was completely unexpected to her. Gao Yang sat there, looking out the window, and didn't find her for a long time, so she couldn't help coughing.

She turned her eyes away, deliberately not looking at Gao Yang, her little face was pale, and she snorted, as if she was waiting for something.

Gao Yang's eyes lit up and walked over directly.

"Miss Song, what a coincidence!"

Song Qingqing couldn't help but smile when she heard the voice, but she deliberately held it back.

She warned herself in her heart that the more this time, the more indifferent she should be.

"Mr. Gao, is there anything?" Song Qingqing said indifferently, with a sense of alienation in her voice.

Gao Yang heard the voice and suddenly looked at the servant beside him, "This young master said that he knew Miss Song, but you still don't believe it. The Song family is a big official in the court, how could they be short of that little money?"

After saying that, Gao Yang just nodded politely at her, and then went downstairs without any nostalgia and walked out of the restaurant.

The servant walked quickly towards Song Qingqing and said flatteringly, "The young master spent 103 coins. Miss Song, do you want to pay now or later?"

A cool breeze blew in from the window, and Song Qingqing's hair on her forehead was blown up, revealing her face full of surprise.
