Three days passed in the blink of an eye.
However, these three days were torture for the envoys of Tubo and Tuyuhun, as well as all the civil and military officials in the imperial court.
Basically, the gates of Zhangsun Wuji, Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui were all trampled on.
Not for anything else, but just to ask what exactly this Bone Strengthening Powder was!
As for why no one went to Wei Zheng's residence?
Only someone with a screw loose would dare to go to Wei Zheng's residence and ask about the Bone Strengthening Powder?
Were you courting death?
Who was Wei Zheng?
Once he knew that you were inquiring about something that even the emperor was unwilling to talk about, he would definitely send a memorial to the emperor and make you eat fried meat with a stick.
These few days.
Cheng Yaojin and the others no longer looked pale. Instead, their faces were glowing. They ate less meat, and their appetite had also decreased. Usually, a residence would need at least ten catties of noodles. But now, after everyone in the residence had eaten the Bone Strengthening Powder, they only needed five catties of noodles!
Even Cheng Yaojin, who was known as a big rice bucket, had reduced his appetite from a bowl the size of a washbasin to a bowl the size of a fist.
He couldn't even finish a bowl.
This shocked the guests. Everyone thought that Cheng Yaojin must have gotten more Bone Strengthening Powder than everyone else.
Cheng Yaojin was also at his wit's end.
He sent Cheng Chumo to see the emperor. After getting permission, Cheng Yaojin waved his hand. You want the Bone Strengthening Powder, right?
Okay!
100 strings of coins per catty!
But even so, he couldn't stand it anymore.
Looking at the copper coins, silver, and gold ingots piled up in a room, he went crazy.
He hurriedly entered the palace that night.
But he didn't know until he entered the palace. Now that he entered the palace, he realized that things were serious.
Other than Wei Zheng, all of their manors had encountered the same situation. Even if the entire family had been mobilized, even the locusts that had been secretly transported from the Imperial City had not been enough.
Those ministers were more black-hearted than the other. F * ck, there were many who asked for hundreds or even hundreds of thousands of dans. Moreover, they would give you the money first. Regardless of whether you have it or not, they would give you the money first. Now, you have to give it to them even if you don't want to.
Looking at the room full of money and the huge amount of orders, they didn't feel happy at all. Instead, they felt even more worried.
How could this be good?
Even though Cheng Chumo, Wei Shuyu, and the others had been secretly collecting locusts these past few days, it was of no use.
Hundreds of officials!
Almost all of them were here.
How could he deal with this?
He looked at the people on the Vermilion Bird Bridge.
The few of them looked at each other. From the time when they were showing off at the start, to now, all of them looked exhausted.
"Old Cheng, you also encountered such a thing? Do you intend to … "
"Plan my ass! This matter is too big. I have to personally report it to the higher-ups. These bastards usually complain that they are poor, but this time, the money that has been deposited into the treasury is probably not even a fraction of what they have! "
"Then, Lord Zhangsun, what do you think we should do?"
The three of them couldn't help but look at Zhangsun Wuji, who had been silent all this time.
Zhangsun Wuji couldn't do anything. He pouted at the depths of the Imperial Palace.
"Let's go. Only His Majesty can make a decision on this matter!"
"…"
The few of them didn't report their arrival in advance, but the Emperor seemed to know that they were coming and gave the order in advance. Therefore, they entered the Imperial Palace without any hindrance.
As soon as they entered the Imperial Study.
They saw the Emperor bending over the table and reading a few memorials.
"Greetings, Your Majesty!"
"Get up!"
Li Shimin put down the things in his hands and asked, "I've seen the list of people you've compiled in these three days. It's really beyond my expectations!"
"What do you think if in the morning court tomorrow, this thing is made by locusts, how will they react?"
After Li Shimin finished asking, his expression was strange.
"This …"
"I think it's better to prepare a basin for them in advance and then give this delicious food to them first. If Your Majesty announces it at that time, I think it'll be even more perfect!"
Cheng Yaojin's voice fell.
Everyone looked at him with a strange expression, but this was enough. Because this was the best way to make people remember it!
Moreover, the benefits and benefits of this locusts would be remembered by them!
"Good!"
Li Shimin got up and slapped the memorials presented by the few of them. He said, "What do you think about this matter?"
"Your Majesty, Old Cheng is right!"
"I also agree with General Cheng's opinion. Last time, each of them made a lot of money from the locusts' eggs, and this time, they even asked us to inquire about Your Majesty. It's time to make them suffer!"
Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui agreed with Cheng Yaojin without even thinking about it.
There was nothing else.
It was time to make this group of pedantic people suffer a little.
Only by suffering this could they be more clear about the value and significance of this thing.
Then, would the rumors in Chang 'an and all the rumors in the Tang Dynasty still be a problem?
When the time came, there would be no need for the Emperor to say anything. Naturally, someone would handle this matter perfectly!
"Then, in that case, I'll allow it!"
"We'll wait for tomorrow's morning court!"
"We congratulate Your Majesty!"
