The two of them arrived at the palace very quickly, and hurried to the Tai Chi Hall. They immediately arranged manpower and arranged the order.

Organize a large number of manpower to go around Chang'an, arrange for a large number of locusts, and bring them to the palace.

You have to take care of it yourself.

One night, I didn't even have time to rest.

We have been arranging people to handle this matter.

The gates of Chang'an City were opened, and from time to time a team would rush in or rush out.

The team also carried cages with a large number of locusts in them, heading towards the palace.

Li Er arranged his manpower and began to order people to deal with these locusts according to the method learned in Zhaojiazhuang.

I was so busy that I didn't even have time to sleep for a whole night.

Until the sun rose in the east on the second day, Li Er stretched.

After seeing the results of the whole night, everyone laughed.

With the arrival of the morning, the next tasks were arranged.

Arrangements were made for Changsun Wuji to watch here, while he entered the court hall and went to prepare.

With the arrival of the morning court, ministers arrived one after another.

It was just today's morning meeting that everyone discovered why they saw the Holy Master looking so energetic. Could it be that something happy had happened?

Before the minister below could speak, Li Er had already spoken first.

"My dear friends, I didn't go to the morning court yesterday. That's because I was thinking about what to do about this matter.

After thinking about it for a day, I feel that this matter really needs to be done.”

What does it do, what does it mean?

Everyone expressed that they did not understand what His Majesty said.

"Where are the officials from the Ministry of Rites?"

"His Majesty."

"I order you to make arrangements immediately. Today I will sacrifice to heaven."

ah?

After Li Er finished speaking, the officials of the Ministry of Rites were stunned for a moment.

Are you going to worship heaven today?

This speed is too fast, and the time is too tight, right?

According to the previous process, it would take several days to prepare from preparation to offering sacrifices to heaven.

Today's speed was a bit fast, and for a while everyone was confused.

Li Er waved his hand.

"Alright, in extraordinary times, special things will be done."

An hour later, all the civil and military officials went to worship together.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

With what His Majesty said, the officials of the Ministry of Rites did not dare to delay and hurriedly went to deal with the matter.

Only the other people in the court were left confused and didn't know what happened.

"Your Majesty, does this sacrifice to heaven have anything to do with sinners?"

"Sin one's own edict, what sin one's edict?"

Hearing what the descendants of the family said, Li Er felt very helpless.

Regarding the issue of sinner's edict, we will talk about it tomorrow after offering sacrifices to heaven today.

"It's Your Majesty."

Everyone said, I don’t believe that if the sacrifice to heaven is completed today, the locusts will be able to leave?

If this locust plague does not go away, doesn't it mean that your majesty's sacrifice to heaven is not thorough and your intention is not fulfilled.

Therefore, you still need an edict to deal with things properly.

This is a hole you dug for yourself, don't blame them.

Everyone laughed thinking about this.

Dele, Your Majesty has the final say. Everyone stopped answering and stayed quietly unmoved.

As time went by step by step, the Ministry of Rites quickly took care of everything.

Arrange people to come to the main hall and report the matter to His Majesty.

Li Er waved his hand and led the civil and military officials to the place of worship and began to offer sacrifices to heaven.

Only this time when everyone arrived at the place of sacrifice, they were surprised to find.

Why are there rows of tables arranged on the left and right sides of the sacrificial place?

On the other side, there are people from the imperial kitchen who are busy there, setting up iron pots and firewood, doing this and that?

Seeing this scene, everyone murmured quietly, but they didn't know what exactly happened.

I had to follow behind and watch quietly.

An official from the Ministry of Rites came over and murmured a few words to His Majesty. Li Er nodded secretly and walked to the altar step by step, standing above and watching quietly.

Although this matter is relatively urgent, fortunately, the officials of the Ministry of Rites are very mature about everything.

Everything that needs to be said has been said, everything that needs to be prayed has been prayed, and the remaining matters are left to His Majesty's arrangement.

"Come here, tell me my order and open fire."

"Fire according to His Majesty's command!"

"It's Your Majesty."

On the other side, the royal kitchen team had already prepared. They skillfully added the fire, heated up the oil in the pot, and began to stir-fry the locusts.

What on earth is this doing?

Yes, what is your Majesty doing? This is a sacrifice. How can this sacrifice be careless?

Why do you see the Holy Sage's arrangement, like asking for cooking in the imperial dining room?

Coming to a serious place like a sacrifice and arranging cooks to cook is simply the greatest disrespect to God.

For a while, the ministers below chattered endlessly.

Saw this scene.

This is a heaven-sacrifice ceremony, not a vegetable market. Don't keep talking on the sidelines.

When the official from the Ministry of Rites said this, everyone closed their mouths and just watched quietly.

His Majesty, who was standing above, was also standing aside, quietly looking at the sky.

As time passed by one minute and one second, there was a shout from the imperial kitchen to start the pot.

Li Er started the next step of the process, lighting a fire and offering sacrifices!

A plate of fried locusts was brought up, and Li Er knelt on the ground holding the plate.

"Thank God for blessing, thank God for blessing, take pity on the people of the Tang Dynasty, and send down such delicacies on earth, thank God."

As he spoke, he handed it to the official of the Ministry of Rites beside him, and poured the plate of locusts into the sacrificial utensils.

He kowtowed to the top again and stood up.

"Dear dear friends, I pray to God today to thank God for taking pity on the people of the Tang Dynasty and sending down such fresh delicacies.

Let my people use it to their heart's content. How can this make me unhappy?

"What is your Majesty talking about?"

Why didn't you understand?

What is food? Where is this food? What's going on?

For a while, the ministers below started talking quietly again, completely unaware of what His Majesty meant by what he said.

"Come and prepare a banquet."

"Prepare the feast."

As the sound of preparing a banquet spread, a group of people in the imperial dining room below began to arrange plates one by one and brought the fried locusts up one by one.

Looking at the dining table in front of me, it has been occupied by grasshoppers of various flavors for a while.

This? This? This?

"Everyone, today I am not only praying to God, but also thanking God for blessings.
