The next day.
Zhangtai Palace, in the court.
All the ministers 'gazes were focused on Zhao Qiu, waiting for him to come up with a solution to the locust plague.
After all.
Zhao Qiu had said it himself.
"Lord internal historian, have you thought of a way to resolve the locust plague?”
"You must know that deceiving His Majesty is a capital crime!”
Seeing Zhao Qiu come to court empty-handed and unprepared, Feng Quji immediately stood up and questioned him.
He wished he could immediately punish Zhao Qiu for deceiving the emperor and make his head fall to the ground!
"Ha! There is no need for the Right Prime Minister to remind me!"
"I naturally know!"
"Moreover, even the First Emperor didn't say anything. How dare you question me?”
"Could it be…"
"You think your status is higher than the First Emperor!？”
Zhao Qiu rolled his eyes and immediately blamed Feng Quji.
He didn't care about the Left Prime Minister or the Right Prime Minister. If anyone offended him, he would just fight them!
Jun Bujian.
Even the Vitality Pills that Ying Zheng had taken from him had been obediently returned, and he had even paid ten Emperor Pills!
With a cheat on him, he had nothing to fear!
Zhao Qiu's big hat instantly made Feng Quji break out in cold sweat. His knees went soft and he knelt on the ground with a thud.
"Framed!"
"Your Majesty, I have no such intentions!"
"I was too worried about the safety of the empire and lost my manners. I hope Your Majesty can forgive me!”
Feng Quji knelt on the ground and defended loudly.
Qin Fa was harsh!
Feng Quji's actions were a serious disrespect to the Emperor. If they really investigated, he would definitely not have a good ending!
"Three months of salary!"
"Be careful next time!"
Ying Zheng said expressionlessly, but deep down, he had already developed a deep dissatisfaction with Feng Quji.
This old man had relied on his status in Great Qin to find trouble with Qiu 'er time and time again. He was quite detestable!
Ying Zheng wished he could strip him of his position as Prime Minister right now.
However, it was just a thought in his heart!
If there was no major mistake, removing a prime minister would definitely cause turmoil in the court!
Forget it!
He would leave this old fellow for Qiu 'er to deal with in the future. It could also be considered a form of training for him!
Hearing Ying Zheng's punishment, Feng Quji was stunned!
This matter could be big or small.
With the Prime Minister's status, it was basically a one-time thing.
Although he looked terrified and frightened just now, he did not take this matter to heart at all. Everything was just for show.
He had never thought that the First Emperor would really punish him!
Although it was only a three-month salary penalty, it was a loss of face. This meant that he no longer had a place in the Emperor's heart as compared to Zhao Qiuzhong!
How could this be?
It was impossible!
I don't believe it!
For a moment, Feng Quji found it hard to accept this fact!
"Right Prime Minister, why aren't you thanking me?”
It was only when Zhao Gao's sharp voice rang in his ear that Feng Quji woke up from his dream.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
"Your Majesty, ten thousand years! Ten thousand years of Great Qin!"
Feng Quji thanked him and returned to his own group in a daze.
Li Si coldly knocked on Feng Quji's shoulder and sneered in his heart.
Right Prime Minister, you are courting death!
Zhao Qiu was the eldest son of the First Emperor!
Yet, you have made things difficult for him time and time again. Whether it is His Majesty or Gongzi Qiu, they have already developed a great hatred for you in their hearts!
You're already walking further and further down the path of courting death!
"Internal Secretary Zhao, quickly present the method to resolve the locust plague!”
"We and the ministers can't wait any longer!”
After a farce that was neither too big nor too small, Ying Zheng urged Zhao Qiu impatiently.
Yesterday.
He had heard from Zhao Qiu's heart that he was using food to solve the locust plague. He didn't understand what it meant to be nutritious, delicious, contain vitamins, protein, and so on.
but...
Although he didn't understand, he absolutely believed that Zhao Qiu's food was absolutely delicious!
This was the conclusion he came up with when he was freeloading at Zhao Qiu's residence from time to time!
Sometimes, the way he ate and the ingredients were strange, but it really made people salivate and linger!
"Yes!"
Zhao Qiu responded and clapped his hands.
The temple staff waiting outside the main hall served the fried locusts that Zhao Qiu had prepared earlier.
The lid opened!
A mouth-watering fragrance immediately spread throughout the hall!
Gulp!
The intoxicating fragrance continuously stimulated the taste buds of the ministers, making them swallow their saliva involuntarily!
Fragrant!
It was too fragrant!
All of them stared blankly at the fried locusts in the hands of the temple staff, wishing they could swallow them all immediately!
They swore!
He had never smelled such delicious food in his life!
In Great Qin's era, cooking methods were extremely backward, and they only had three cooking methods: steaming, boiling, and roasting.
Things like stir-frying, deep-frying, pan-frying, and so on did not appear at all!
This was why Great Qin's natives were so shocked!
"Your Majesty!"
"The solution to the locust plague is here!”
"Actually, locusts are a rare delicacy. They are rich in many nutrients that the human body needs. They can mobilize the people of the world to catch locusts and eat them as food!”
"Firstly, it can replenish the nutrition of the people!”
"Secondly, it can solve the locust plague!"
"It can be said to be killing two birds with one stone!”
Zhao Qiu pointed at these cooked locusts and said to Ying Zheng with assurance.
"Ridiculous!"
"Locusts are pests. How can we eat dirty things?？”
Feng Quji quickly jumped out to rebut and reprimanded Zhao Qiu.
"Ha!"
"Lord Right Prime Minister, don't use ignorance as your capital to show off!”
Zhao Qiu glanced at him mockingly, picked up a locust, and threw it into her mouth. She started chewing.
"Smells good!"
"Delicious!"
Zhao Qiu's expression of enjoyment, coupled with the rich sound of fried locusts, made the hearts of the officials itch. However, they also felt a fear from the bottom of their hearts towards this unknown food.
"Mmm, it's delicious!"
"It's really delicious!"
As Zhao Qiu's hardcore supporter, Li Si ate a locust without hesitation. His face instantly revealed an extremely intoxicated expression.
With Left Prime Minister Li Si leading the way, the rest of the officials began to try the fried locusts.
"Delicious!"
"Awesome!"
"It smells so good!"
"This is a delicacy!"
"I've never eaten such delicious food before!”
......
All the officials who had eaten it were full of praise and intoxicated. They ate mouthful after mouthful until their mouths were full of oil!
Looking at Ying Zheng and the other ministers who were eating so much that their mouths were dripping with oil, Zhao Qiu was prepared to throw a provocative look at the Right Prime Minister, Feng Quji!
Who knew…
Feng Quji, this old fellow, pinched a few with his left hand and a few with his right hand. He kept sending them into his mouth!
He ate faster than anyone else!
Zhao Qiu's eyelids twitched!
What the f * ck!
What happened to the so-called dirty things?
