Outside Chang 'an City, twenty miles to the North.
Li Shi Min stood there with his sword in his hand.
He raised the saber at his waist and stabbed it into the ground.
He ordered Li Junxian,
"Li Junxian, dig!"
"Ah?" Li Junxian blinked. He had never heard of such a request.
Li Shimin was not joking.
Li Junxian wanted his Division of Hundred Cavalry to start digging.
However, Li Shi Min waved his hand," All the Hundred Cavalry Division, go to the outer perimeter and be on guard. No one is allowed to approach within five miles." Li Junxian, dig it yourself!"
Li Junxian still didn't understand the Emperor's intentions.
His Majesty had already issued a request.
He could only do as he was told.
First, he ordered all the Hundred Cavalry Division to be on guard five miles away to ensure that not a single fly could fly in. Then, he obediently picked up his saber and began to dig at the location that Li Shiming had marked!
Li Junxian had been badly beaten by Li Zhi last time, leaving behind many wounds.
Therefore, the digging was a little slow!
Fang Xuanling and the others were still confused. They couldn't help but ask,"
"Your Majesty, why did you ask Commander Li to dig this place?”
"Yes, Your Majesty. This is just an ordinary piece of land.”
"There are simply too many lands like this in the Guanlong region.”
"I can't say that there are locusts down here.”
Hearing this, Li Shiming's eyes lit up and he smiled at Fang Xuanling,""Xuan Ling, your words are very similar. Don't worry, Li Junxian will soon dig up something!”
Although Li Shiming said this with a mysterious expression, he was still a little confused.
However, his heart was still pounding!
After all, he did not find the locust pupa, so he was not sure if what Li Zhi said was true! Li Zhi was only a three-year-old child!
Fang Xuanling and the others were even more surprised.
He thought to himself, Hiss! Could there really be locusts in this soil?!
Du Ruhui and Zhangsun Wuji thought for a moment before jumping off their horses.
They picked up their sabers and began to help Li Junxian dig!
With their help.
Soon, a deep pit was dug out of the ground.
However, the pit was filled with soil.
Other than dirt, there was nothing else.
Du Ruhui and Zhangsun Wuji were a little discouraged." Where are the locusts?!" Your Majesty, are you kidding us? There were still a lot of things to do in the Ministry of Central Affairs!”
Li Shi Min was not as confident as before.
After all, the pit was more than five feet deep!
If there really was a locust pupa, it would have been dug up by now.
Li Shimin couldn't help but think to himself," Slave Zhi, if you dare to deceive Father, I'm afraid that you'll be killed. When Imperial Father returns, he will definitely make your butt explode!”
Just as Li Shiming was thinking this, Li Junxian suddenly shouted,
"Eh? What is this?"
In an instant, Du Ruhui and Zhangsun Wuji surrounded him.
Li Junxian had dug out a pupa the size of a thumb!
Du Ruhui was also knowledgeable and recognized it at a glance.
"Tsk! Wasn't this a locust pupa? There really were locust pupae in this land!”
Zhangsun Wuji and Fang Xuanling were also shocked.
"Your Majesty is right!"
"Is there really a locust pupa in the soil?"
"Could it be that the locust plague that Your Majesty mentioned really exists?”
Li Shi Min was overjoyed!
His posture on the horse's back also became more and more upright!
"Haha! My son didn't lie to me!" Li Shi Min thought to himself, Although my son is only three years old, he has the potential of a saint! These words made me silently act tough again!”
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui are known for their decisiveness.
Zhangsun Wuji had followed Li Shiming for a long time and was very experienced, so he often pointed fingers at Li Shiming.
Li Shi Min had long been sick of them.
However, the suggestions of these three people were all quite constructive. Moreover, he was very capable.
Therefore, Li Shi Min was helpless and could only let the three of them show off in front of him.
Now, he finally showed off in front of these three people! Of course, Li Shi Min was very happy!
"Your Majesty, come down quickly!"
"This is really a locust pupa!"
"It seems that your deduction is correct.”
"Since there are locust pupae buried in the Guanlong area, it means that there will be a locust plague in the Guanlong area next year!”
"Your Majesty, you saved millions of people in Guanlong!”
Fang Xuanling and the other two looked at Li Shimin with a worshipping expression.
Li Shi Min smiled.
He jumped down from his warhorse.
Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he pretended to be very relaxed and said,
"Look elsewhere! You can't just look at one place!"
"Yes, yes, dig in other places.”
"If we only dig in one place, there might be a chance.”
Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui nodded and started digging elsewhere.
This time, they used extra force.
Soon, three deep pits that were more than five feet wide were dug out.
In the deep pit, locust cocoons actually appeared!
One of them had ten locust pupae, while the other two had seven!
Such a large area of locust pupae had appeared.
He could already conclude that a locust plague would definitely appear in this area!
"Hu! There's no need to continue digging!"
"We just dug a few deep pits, and locust cocoons appeared.”
"This means that there will definitely be a locust plague in the Guanlong area next year!”
Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and the other two dukes said solemnly.
Li Shi Min nodded slightly.
This meant that everything Li Zhi had told him was true!
"Your Majesty, we didn't do our job properly. I hope you can punish us!”
"That's right! As the Duke of the imperial court, we didn't even notice the locust plague that was about to appear in the capital province!”
"If it weren't for Your Majesty's wisdom! This locust plague would definitely make the people of Guanlong suffer!”
Fang Xuanling and the others kept calling him a sage and a wise ruler, which made Li Shimin feel quite pleased!
Li Junxian suddenly frowned.
"But, it can't be that all the soil in the Guanlong area is filled with locust cocoons like this, right?”
"Then how do we deal with these locust pupas? We can't dig them one by one!"
Zhangsun Wuji and the others frowned slightly.
Obviously, he had considered this problem.
However, Li Shi Min stroked his beard and thought to himself, Mm, it's time for me to act tough again!
