The God-Level Prodigal Son of the Tang Dynasty

It was just that Hongfu Nu separated the two people along the way, making Li Ruoshuang unable to say anything to Zhao Chen.

"Mom, are you hungry? Go ahead and have something to eat. My daughter is waiting for you in front!"

Li Ruoshuang's words only elicited a cold glance from Hongfu Nu.

Hongfu Nu never left, not letting Zhao Chen and Li Ruoshuang get too close.

The three of them walked to the residential area in the north of Chang'an City.

The people who live here are all famous people from Chang'an City.

Even if he is not an official, he is still a great Confucian scholar.

Except for some businessmen with special status, no ordinary people can live here.

"Today we saw the house, which was the yard of the former Minister of War. The house faces well and is close to the palace. It will be more convenient for you to go to court in the future!" Hongfu Nu introduced the house in front of Zhao Chen.

But it was obvious that Zhao Chen couldn't arouse any interest.

He just wanted to prepare a house to live in for his wedding to Li Ruoshuang.

As for being close to the palace and convenient for going to court, Zhao Chen was not interested at all.

His pub in Pingkangfang is still open!

Going to court?

What court?

Doesn't it affect your mood when you see Lao Litou's stinky face every day?

Zhao Chen didn't want to go to court, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Li Jing to present the horseshoe yesterday.

"Ruoshuang, do you like it?" Zhao Chen looked at Li Ruoshuang and asked.

Li Ruoshuang shook her head. How could she not tell that Zhao Chen didn't like the yard here.

Even she herself really doesn't like this place.

If you really move in, will you be annoyed to death by the officials who come to visit you in the future?

What she was thinking about was living a two-person world with Zhao Chen where no one would disturb her.

Not everyone’s life is disturbed by a visit!

"You all don't like this beautiful yard. Do you know how much thought I put into it?"

"You two heartless guys!" Hong

Fu Nu glared at the two of them with dissatisfaction and asked, "Where do you two like to live?"

…

"My dear friends, do you have any solution to the locust plague in the coming year?"

In the Tai Chi Hall, Li Shimin asked everyone tiredly.

He didn't sleep all night last night because he was worried about the locust plague.

Although the locust plague is superficially related to the harvest of the people.

In more serious cases, it will force people to become refugees.

But what worried the emperor even more was that someone would take advantage of the locust plague to attack him, Li Shimin.

Because according to folk rumors, the locust plague was God's punishment for the emperor's lack of virtue.

All the officials in the Taiji Palace were also in a dilemma!

Even if they knew that there would be a locust plague in the coming year, they could only watch helplessly.

Because according to historical records, there has never been a perfect solution to the locust plague.

What solutions can they think of?

"Father, we still need to collect a large number of chickens and ducks, drive these animals into the fields, and let them eat these locusts!" Prince Li Chengqian said to the emperor.

Li Shimin nodded, but then shook his head.

Although this is a solution, it is not a long-term solution after all.

Once a locust plague strikes, it cannot be solved by just tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of chickens and ducks.

Otherwise, there would have been no locust plague in history.

"Your Majesty, why don't we start from the source and turn over all the soil in the ground? This way we can freeze the locust eggs in the soil to death!" A minister suggested.

Some nodded, while others objected.

Turning over all the ground sounds easy, but if you really want to do it, how much manpower and material resources will it cost?

How much money does it cost?

Don't worry, if the locusts are not dealt with by then, their treasury will be completely empty.

The Taiji Hall became quiet, and no one dared to speak casually anymore.

Looking at the civil and military ministers of the dynasty, Li Shimin felt a little disappointed.

There are so many people, but they can't even control a small locust!

"My dear friends, who else has a solution, or someone who can think of a solution?" Li Shimin asked in a deep voice.

But in my heart, I no longer had much hope.

After all, the people in front of me just now have told them everything they know.

But after all, this matter cannot be solved!

Still no one spoke, and Li Shimin looked a little ugly.

Just as he was about to get angry, he saw Wei Zheng taking a step forward.

"Wei Zheng, do you have any good ideas?" Li Shimin frowned.

"Reporting to your Majesty, I have few talents and limited knowledge, and there is no way to solve this problem!" Wei Zheng said with cupped hands.

Li Shimin clenched his fists and glared at Wei Zheng.

Since there is no other way, you dare to step forward, just to anger yourself?

Or does Wei Zheng feel that he has lived too long?

"Doctor Wei, what are you talking about? Why don't you apologize to your Majesty quickly!" Someone noticed that the emperor's face was gloomy and quickly reminded Wei Zheng.

"Wei Zheng, you are crazy."

"Your Majesty, Doctor Wei also made a mistake and disturbed Your Majesty. Please forgive me!"

Someone asked for Wei's favor.

But Wei Zheng still didn't show any signs of panic.

"Reporting to your Majesty, there is still one person who has not come to court today!" Wei Zheng said to the emperor.

Li Shimin frowned even more tightly.

There are so many people in the Tai Chi Hall, and every time there are people asking for leave, they cannot come.

Isn't this normal?

Li Shimin wants to remember who didn't come one by one?

"Wei Zheng, my patience has its limit, what on earth do you want to say!" Li Shimin was a little embarrassed to have Wei Zheng's head chopped off right now.

I was obviously extremely annoyed that this bastard was still teasing me like this.

"Your Majesty, Zhao Chen, Marquis of Wannian County, did not come to court today!" Wei Zheng and Li Shimin said, cupping their hands.

"Zhao Chen?" Li Shimin frowned.

"Wannian County Marquis, Zhao Chen, Wei Zheng, what do you mean by these words?"

"He doesn't mean that Zhao Chen has a way to solve this problem, right?"

"Are you kidding? This is a locust plague. Who can solve it?"

"Any locust plague recorded in history has left people everywhere. No matter how capable Zhao Chen is, this matter will definitely not be solved!"

"Although I hope in my heart that someone can solve this matter, it is just hope after all."

The court officials understood what Wei Zheng meant, but it was obvious that they did not believe that Zhao Chen could solve the matter.

Even the emperor was stunned on the dragon couch at this moment.

Zhao Chen, he had completely forgotten about this guy.

However, Li Shimin couldn't even imagine that Zhao Chen could solve the locust plague.

That was a locust plague, and no one had ever completely solved it.

"Your Majesty, Wannian County Marquis can even make magical things like horseshoes. Why not ask him?"

"If it can really be solved, wouldn't it be good news for the people of the Tang Dynasty?" Wei Zheng and Li Shimin advised.

In fact, even Wei Zheng himself was not very sure about this matter.

Li Shimin frowned.

The ministers in the Taiji Hall were silent. The originally noisy hall was strangely quiet at this moment.

After being silent for a long time, Li Shimin thought of the miraculous things Zhao Chen had brought to him these days.

Just like the previous one that produced three thousand kilograms of rice.

"Where is Wannian County Marquis now?" Li Shimin asked.
