Chapter 373 Dog Skin Plaster
Chapter 373 Dog Skin Plaster
Xiao Yanbao was a little confused when he heard this. In the past few days since she was gone, the treasury of the Lan Kingdom had also been stolen?
Little Yanbao patted his wishful bag and said, "Dad, don't worry, you won't be hungry. There is food here in Yanbao, enough for you to eat for a year or two."
"Little princess, the emperor didn't say that he will starve. He is a citizen of the Lan Kingdom." Minister Hube explained.
"Why are the people starving? Isn't the food produced in their fields enough to eat?" Xiao Yanbao asked.
If this was the case, she would have to think about whether she could draw a talisman to increase food production.
Or take the alchemy furnace in Yaowang Valley and refine elixirs in every place. The elixir rain can increase food production.
"Yangzhou and Yingzhou, the two major states where we harvest the most grain in the Lan Kingdom, are affected by locust plagues. We have tried many methods but cannot control it. I am afraid that there will be no harvest." The Minister of Household Affairs said with a sad face.
Xiao Yanbao really didn’t know what the locust plague was.
So she blinked her big black eyes and looked at Emperor Lan Gan.
Emperor Lan Qian waved his hand and said, "Secretary of the Ministry of Finance, the little princess is so young, how can she know what a locust plague is."
"Little princess, there is a locust attack. The locusts have eaten all the crops, not even the roots are left."
Xiao Yanbao: Are these locusts so powerful? It sounds like a ghost eating hair.
If there was a Devouring Soul disaster, she wouldn't be able to absorb so many Devouring Souls, so her hair wouldn't need to grow anymore. A single hair of Devouring Souls wouldn't be enough.
[Master, Master, locusts can also be called grasshoppers. They are the grasshoppers you often catch and play with in the back mountains of Yuntai Temple. But locusts are larger than grasshoppers and eat more miscellaneous things. 】
Xiao Yanbao touched her hair, and she was no longer worried.
When Xiao Yanbao touched his head, Concubine Hui discovered something was different about her daughter.
He snatched his daughter from Emperor Lan Gan's arms and said, "Yanbao, your hair has grown!"
Xiao Yanbao smiled and said with crooked eyes, "Yes, mother, not only has it grown, but it can also grow much longer." Xiao Yanbao gestured with his arms as he spoke.
Concubine Hui was amused by her precious daughter, whose hair could grow so long at once.
But let it be whatever my daughter says.
Lan Gandi: Oops, why didn't he notice his daughter's hair? Will this make his daughter feel that he doesn't care enough about her?
He pretended to cough and said, "What's all the fuss about? I noticed it the first time I saw Yan Bao."
Xiao Yanbao blinked and looked at her father. She felt that her father was lying.
Emperor Lan Qian looked away guiltily, not daring to look at his daughter.
Just when he didn't know how to change the topic, Xiao Yanbao's stomach growled.
"Zhang Fu, pass the meal." Emperor Lan Qian ordered.
In fact, Emperor Lan Qian didn't even eat dinner and was discussing matters with several ministers.
It is even less likely that several ministers would eat it.
"You all go back first. We will discuss the locust plague in court tomorrow morning." Emperor Lan Gan said to several ministers.
Several ministers said: We were left here hungry for so long, and we didn't come up with a solution. The little princess sent them away as soon as she came back.
They also wanted to hear what good ideas the little princess could come up with.
After the ministers retired, dinner was put on the table.
Little Yanbao hasn't eaten well these days, he just fills his stomach.
Looking at such a table of sumptuous delicacies, it’s better to go home!
Emperor Lan Qian and Concubine Hui stood on the left and right of Xiao Yanbao, picking up food for him.
Seeing little Yanbao devouring his food, Concubine Hui felt really distressed.
My precious daughter must have never had a full meal after being out for so many days. How does this boy Zeyan take care of his sister? When he comes back, I will see if I don't take care of him properly.
Xiao Yanbao put down his chopsticks after eating until his belly was bulging.
"Dad, mother, I'm full."
Emperor Lan Qian also put down his chopsticks and said, "Yanbao, what my father told you about the locust plague..."
Concubine Hui hugged Xiao Yanbao in her arms and said, "Your Majesty, my precious daughter has just come back. Don't you want to send her away again?"
She hasn't spoken a few words to her daughter yet.
There are so many ministers in the court who don't let them think of solutions, and they always want to let such a little baby help you solve your problems.
Your Majesty, your face is really big.
However, Concubine Hui did not dare to say these words, she just thought about it in her heart.
Emperor Lan Qian also felt a little embarrassed, "I just want to hear Yan Bao's opinion."
Concubine Hui stood up with little Yanbao in her arms, "Your Majesty, Yanbao is only a few years old. She only knows whether she is full or hungry. What opinion can she have?"
Xiao Yanbao: My mother is such a good mother, I am always afraid that she will be hungry.
"Well, mother, I'm full and not hungry."
Xiao Yanbao yawned, "But I'm sleepy again."
Concubine Hui picked up her daughter and walked out, "Your Majesty, Yanbao is sleepy. I took her back to Huilanxuan to sleep."
Emperor Lan Qian: Concubine Hui, just because you are Yanbao's mother-in-law, you are starting to look down on me less and less.
There are so many concubines in the palace, who dares to talk to me like this? It’s really... it’s...
There was nothing he could do against Concubine Hui.
The key is that this precious daughter is closer to her mother and concubine than to herself.
Xiao Yanbao was lying on his mother's shoulder, his eyes were half-squinted, and the corners of his mouth were trying not to curl up.
Quietly sent a message to Emperor Lan Qian: Don't worry, Dad, I have already figured out how to deal with those locusts. I will stay with my mother tonight, and tomorrow I will go to the place where the locust plague occurs.
Emperor Lan Qian was full of dissatisfaction, but when he heard the message from his daughter, he became elated again.
He just said, how could his precious daughter not help him.
"Zhang Fu, let's go to Hui Lanxuan too."
After Concubine Hui heard what Emperor Lan Qian said, not only did she not wait for the emperor, she even quickened her pace.
Why is this emperor like a dog-skin plaster that can't be shaken off?
If the other concubines in the palace are not attractive enough to the emperor, then should she make another show for the emperor?
Well, that’s it, I’ll have to talk to the Minister of Tobe about this some other time.
Nowadays, all affairs in the household department are temporarily handled by the minister of household department.
The palace maid Tao Yao secretly glanced behind the sedan carriage and said, "Your Majesty, the Emperor is at the back. Why don't you wait for the Emperor?"
Concubine Hui didn't even raise her eyelids, "I pretended I didn't see anything."
Taoyao: Your Majesty, you are becoming more and more courageous.
Little Yanbao was in his mother's arms, squinting and actually fell asleep.
She had no idea how her mother carried her back to bed.
Therefore, the Devouring Spirits were not released from the Ruyi Bag.
Since Emperor Lan Gan has followed Huilanxuan, he plans to stay here.
In fact, it was mainly to make it easier for him to hold his daughter to the morning court.
The locust plague in Yangzhou and Yingzhou cannot be delayed for a moment.
This year has been really unlucky for the Lan Kingdom, with wars, droughts, and now a locust plague.
Emperor Lan had something on his mind, so he lay on the bed tossing and turning and couldn't sleep.
It was not until the fourth watch that Emperor Lan Gan fell asleep, but the screams of the little palace maid came from the side hall.
