"I have gone to find Zhao Chen, and he told me that there will definitely be a locust plague this year."
"To be honest, I don't want to believe that this happened, but this matter is of great importance and cannot be careless."
"Duan Qing, immediately ask the military farm doctor to send the recent report memorials from various places. I will take a look at it myself." Li Shimin and Duan Lun said.
Duan Lun just hesitated for a moment and then took the order and left.
As the emperor said, locust plague is of great importance, be careful, there is always no problem.
"Your Majesty, I feel that there is a slight slight shadow? After all, Zhao County Duke is just a teenager. How could he be so sure that a locust plague would happen?" Changsun Wuji persuaded Li Shimin, wanting him to relax.
"Duke Zhao said it well. There is indeed a spring drought this year, but it will probably rain next..."
"Yuan Tiangang from Sitiantai, please send him to see me quickly." Li Shimin interrupted Fang Xuanling's words and shouted to the eunuch outside.
The eunuch disappeared.
"I also hope this is wrong, but I would rather believe in this kind of thing than believe in it."
"Since ancient times, people have said that locust plagues are a warning given by God, and that the emperors on earth have suffered a mistake in benevolence, so they have brought down locust plagues to punish them."
"I know very well that this is the result of rumors spread by those who are interested. I have never done anything that has made things difficult for the people of the world, and I will definitely not let this happen."
"The things that happened back then have not been completely over. I don't want to let the locust plague be confined to my footsteps." Li Shimin slowly said to Changsun Wuji and others.
Changsun Wuji and other ministers did not make any comments.
They were all the emperor's confidants, and they were all at the forefront of the past.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have stood here today.
Although almost ten years have passed, there are still many people who are secretly plotting against the emperor.
If the locust plague really swept the Tang Dynasty.
It will definitely cause turmoil in the country. If something happens at that time, it may be difficult to completely control it.
...
Yuan Tiangang was very impatient.
I worked hard in Sitiantai and observed astrological signs every day, which was also very tired.
It was so late at night that the emperor wanted to summon himself, which was really a big deal.
Yuan Tiangang was unwilling to see the emperor.
During the rainstorm in Chang'an City last year, Yuan Tiangang was often embarrassed in front of the emperor.
Fortunately, that day was also counted as the turn of Jinzhou Dilong, otherwise Yuan Tiangang would feel that he would not have a good ending.
But, people are also curious.
During that incident, the emperor seemed to have known something.
It feels like there are experts behind the emperor who are always guiding me.
The ability of this Tang Dynasty to watch stars should be the most powerful. Why did a more powerful guy suddenly appear?
This made Yuan Tiangang very curious.
He followed the eunuch outside the Ganquan Hall, and not long after, he heard the emperor's summons.
Good, there are a row of big guys standing inside, all of whom are the kind that they can't even see on weekdays.
After ceremonializing with the emperor, Yuan Tiangang looked at his nose and cared about his nose, and did not move for a moment.
"Yuan Tiangang, I have observed the astrological signs recently, but what happened?" The emperor spoke, his voice a little calm.
"This..." Yuan Tiangang had no idea what the emperor meant.
Want to know good news or bad news?
"Say whatever you have." The emperor's voice increased.
"Report to Your Majesty, I have observed the celestial phenomena at night today and realized that the southern star map was full of fire. If it was good, there might be severe droughts in various parts of the south this year." Yuan Tiangang said boldly.
Such droughts and floods are not good things.
If it didn't happen, the emperor would not say that he was a witch and confusing the public.
But if something happens to me and don't say it, then...
Li Shimin frowned, walked down the steps, and headed straight out of the hall.
Outside the Ganquan Hall, Li Shimin looked up at the southern star map and saw only the stars in the sky, which were extremely dazzling.
"Your Majesty, there are five princes in the south, and five stars are connected together. If it is normal, then the stars are in a normal state. At this time, your Majesty, look at the five stars, it has nothing to do with the dimness, and there must be a catastrophe."
"And there is a slight red light on the edge of the stars of the Five Princes, which indicates that there will be a severe drought in the south." Yuan Tiangang stood behind Li Shimin, pointed to the five dim stars in the south, and explained to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin looked up and saw five dim stars in the south. What was even more strange was that there was a faint red light flashing on the edge of the stars.
It's exactly the same as what Yuan Tiangang said.
Before, Li Shimin didn't believe it very much, but after Yuan Tiangang said this, he was a little convinced.
No one told Yuan Tiangang about the reason why he summoned him. If he was just a guess, it would be absolutely impossible to say this.
"Is there a solution?" Li Shimin asked casually.
"Your Majesty doesn't have to worry too much. The purple star is shining brightly, and the emperor has won the heart of heaven and earth."
"The stars around the Five Emperors are surrounded by stars, including the prince, the officials, the honorable ministers, and the five princes, the nine ministers, the generals, the ranks, the entourages, etc. Among them, the prince's stars are the most dazzling. If the old Taoist expected it to be good, this time
The prince will definitely have a solution for the locust plague." Yuan Tiangang continued to point to the Taiweiyuan Star Map in the north and explained.
"Crown Prince?" Li Shimin frowned, and then suddenly understood something.
"Yes, it's the prince, but there was an unknown star around the prince. I don't know what it means." Yuan Tiangang frowned.
Logically speaking, each of the stars surrounding the Five Emperors has its own position.
But I don’t know when another star appeared.
"It's okay, you go back and rest first. Come and give Yuan Tiangang ten thousand golds." Li Shimin seemed to be in a much better mood and even gave Yuan Tiangang ten coins of silver.
Yuan Tiangang is so happy.
Not only did I not cut off the emperor's head today, I also received a reward.
It seems that he has touched the emperor's pulse.
Yuan Tiangang left happily, and even hummed a little song on the way.
"Your Majesty, since Yuan Tiangang said that the Crown Prince has a solution? Why don't you invite your highness to come here?" Changsun Wuji and Li Shimin advised.
Changsun Wuji was also very happy when he heard Yuan Tiangang's words.
He has not put a lot of effort into Li Chengqian.
But he had always been unable to figure out what the emperor meant.
Now there is finally a way to make the prince look in front of the emperor. Changsun Wuji is eager to let Li Chengqian come over quickly.
"Auxiliary, I believe what Yuan Tiangang said is just to make everyone feel at ease. Do you really think he is right?"
"I have already had a few solutions. Where is the prince? When the court meeting tomorrow, I will ask him again. It's getting late, so everyone will hurry back and rest."
"Tomorrow morning, we will determine whether there will be a locust plague." Li Shimin waved his hand and signaled everyone to disperse.
Changsun Wuji and others left, leaving Li Shimin alone standing outside the Ganquan Hall, looking at the dazzling stars in the north.
