In the third year of Zhenguan, the locust plague came as promised.

In the face of this catastrophe, the reaction of the entire Datang was obviously a little weird.

For Li Shimin, they were secretly relieved, but at the same time, they were secretly shocked.

After all, being able to predict natural disasters is really not something that ordinary people can do.

Don't look at the fact that there is a Qin Tianjian in the royal family, in fact, the role it can play is quite limited.

Secretly breathed a sigh of relief, because after months of preparation, the scale of this locust plague is obviously smaller, at least in the big cities of Chang'an and Luoyang.

For those ministers and families with bad intentions, the arrival of the locust plague was very disappointing for them.

Just kidding, this kind of large-scale natural disaster is a good reason to attack the emperor in any dynasty.

Otherwise, there would not have been many emperors in history who had issued edicts against themselves, even if natural disasters had nothing to do with the emperor's half of a copper coin.

But now, as early as more than half a year ago, Li Shimin promulgated a number of new policies for the locust plague.

Among them, the promotion of potatoes alone, just two months of hard work, let many places in the Central Plains experience the happiness of a bumper harvest.

Even if not the yield per mu in every place can reach tens of thousands of catties, there is still land on average.

The most important thing is that these potatoes do not occupy fertile land at all, and the more sandy the soil, the better the geological harvest.

During the planting period, the potato seedlings can not only be used to feed livestock, but also to pick up fresh leaves and stems and stir-fry them.

Originally, those with ulterior motives also planned to take the opportunity of a bumper harvest of potatoes everywhere to kill two birds with one stone.

That is, it can earn enough benefits in this matter, and at the same time, it can also be used to disgust Li Shimin.

But it didn't come to pass, with the harvest of potatoes begins. Li Shimin also issued an edict to the world.

Unified purchase price, large-scale rough processing, finishing workshops, and potatoes are made into various foods before being sold in the Datang Royal Supermarket.

At the same time, various ways to eat sour and hot shredded potatoes, potato stew, potato noodles, mashed potatoes, and potato cakes are directly disclosed to the world.

This practice directly made the guys who originally planned to take advantage of the problem that the people did not know how to eat potatoes, and bought them at a low price almost vomited blood and died.

And that's not even counting the fact that poultry and the kind of frog called the leopard clam began to be bred in large quantities with the approval of His Majesty the Tang Emperor.

It's just a flat purchase price. It's just that those guys who want to take advantage of it can't do it at all.

Of course, not everyone is not brave enough to do so.

No, some people who rely on the power of their families, either simply for money, or for other things, still dare to take risks under Li Shimin's imperial edict.

As a result, all the people who did these things in front of the stage were killed.

Those culprits hidden behind the scenes are also very frustrated.

Some of those who are unlucky and have slightly lower strength are even regarded as the chickens in the monkey to kill chickens.

As for the collusion between the localities and those sent by Li Shimin to carry out the imperial decree. It's not that there isn't.

But the final result is quite miserable, and it is all light.

However, it is precisely because of this incident that the special existence of the internal guard, which was originally hidden in the depths even if it existed, also came to the front of the stage.

These are said to be internal guards who have been instilled with the idea of working hard for Li Shimin since childhood, not to mention their strength, they are still no problem in loyalty.

No matter what kind of official you are or what kind of big family you are, if you dare to disobey the will of the saint today, there will be only one result. Kill!

Of course, it was too hard. It will definitely be opposed by all the ministers in the court.

can't stand these internal guards one by one more ruthless, and those unlucky ones are more aggrieved than the other.

Riding a horse and falling to death, drowning in a river, climbing a stairs to eat and drink and accidentally falling to death, etc., are nothing.

The hardest way to die is to go to the toilet and fall into the pit (?) Dead.

The most enjoyable way to die is to die on a woman's belly.

In comparison, what encounters bandits, mobs and the like are hacked to death. Really not very technical.

It's not that no one thinks that the death of these unlucky guys is related to the internal guard and Li Shimin behind the internal guard.

But this doesn't do anything!

Not to mention that the deaths of these unlucky people were too mysterious, and they were soon spread into various versions.

The various embezzlements, corruptions, and even inhumane behaviors exposed after the death of these unlucky people alone are enough to make them fall into a "die well!" "Death is long overdue! Something like that.

Even if it's those big families that have passed down an unknown number of dynasties. In the face of this strange and unpreventable way of death, I was also frightened.

After taking the opportunity to make trouble several times to no avail, on the contrary, after folding in some people and interests, he decisively chose Taoguang to be honest.

In fact, for the internal guards, after discovering that they could not be corrupted, it was not that no one wanted to exterminate this uncontrollable force to cut off Li Shimin's wings.

But the problem is that these internal guards don't know what's wrong, not only are they terrifying, but the equipment is also strange, which makes people unguardable.

The only clue that can be seen is that these internal guards have more or less similar traces to those concubines who went to Cheng to bite Jin and Niu Jinda's subordinates.

As a result, the two juniors who were said to be disciples of the Immortal Family became the object of attention of various forces.

If someone else dares to do so many things that damage the interests of others, there will be no good results.

But no matter what kind of means those people with ulterior motives use, they can't hurt half of Li Anran and Yun Ye's hairs.

On the contrary, there were a few times because of the injuries to these two subordinates, and even the people of the Yun family, as a result, many people were cups, no, it should be a tragedy.

Unlike Li Shimin's scruples about this and that, Li Anran's methods are even more ruthless.

Especially when on a rainy night, countless thunderbolts turn a mansion belonging to a certain family into a sea of fire like a snake.

Not to mention those hands-on guys, even Li Shimin was shocked!

In addition, there is a certain guy who realizes that the situation is not right and takes his family to take refuge in the Zhuangzi below.

As a result, the road was swallowed up by the sudden mud loss, and the people, horses, and carriages were swallowed together, and even the grave was saved.

The most bizarre was once, but overnight, a certain prince's courtyard instantly turned into a bottomless sinkhole.

And this pit will be good to swallow this courtyard, but the courtyard next to it is not hurt at all.

The problem is that it is not hurt to return to it, and in such a terrible situation, who dares to continue to live nearby if there is a problem with the brain.

What if the sinkhole expands, won't there be even bones left?

In the entire territory of Datang, after some strange incidents occurred one after another in various places, the entire Datang high-level was instantly dumbfounded.

Just kidding, if it's just an irregular event, forget it.

Anyone who knows a little bit of the situation can see that these unfortunate places are all related to the forces against the two Immortal disciples.

The most chilling thing is that Li Shimin actually remained silent about such a cruel method.

Those who subconsciously thought that this matter was Li Shimin's approval, or at least acquiescence, were actually misunderstood.

Silence is not without ideas, but too much to have!

This Nima said that if he was killed, he would be killed, and if he said that he would be buried alive, he would be buried alive. Speaking of pit people, Nima even pits such a big courtyard, even Li Shimin can't stand it.

Not to mention the potatoes before, there were also high-yield crops such as corn, Champa rice, cotton, soybeans, and sweet potatoes later.

and the emergence of the "Tang People's Daily", which was completely controlled by Li Shimin, played a great role in consolidating imperial power.

Especially the People's Bank of Datang, which is already in preparation, Li Shimin knows very well how beneficial the appearance of this thing is to him.

On the one hand, there are all kinds of indescribable benefits, and on the other hand, as long as you don't mess with me, I won't blow up the reaction.

Not to mention Li Shimin, those family forces who have gained a lot of benefits together, as long as they are not crippled, they know how to choose.

At this point, the generals led by Cheng Yanjin and Niu Jinda did quite well.

In particular, Cheng and Niu have made a lot of benefits by taking advantage of the convenience of being the first to deal with each other.

Not to mention, just the many new liquor brands led by high-grade liquor have made these two companies make a lot of money, and even Li Shimin is blushing. (To be continued......)
