For seven days in a row.
Li Shimin had been dealing with the border issues, as well as the Turks and Tubo Tuyuhun.
It seemed that these issues had nothing to do with the Tang Dynasty at this time.
But what was the actual situation?
Who knew?
If the drought really broke out to the point of no return, then the industries of the Tang Dynasty would definitely be affected!
This was not a locust plague. What if the locust plague broke out again?
Then the consequences …
"Second Brother, are you worried about the border issues again?"
Darkness.
It gradually enveloped the imperial study.
At this moment.
Empress Zhangsun held an oil lamp and gently appeared behind Li Shimin.
"Second Brother?"
Empress Zhangsun lit the oil lamp in the study and looked at the depressed Li Shimin with a worried face.
Li Shimin shook his head slightly, then turned around and grabbed Empress Zhangsun's small hand.
"Maid Guanyin, I …"
"I know, but I feel that Second Brother should take things slowly!"
"Although Brother Zhang Feng is right, he may have exaggerated. Think about it, Tubo and Tuyuhun must be thinking about how to cover up this matter. After all, this is not a glorious matter, and maybe Tuyuhun and the Turks are also dealing with this matter."
Li Shimin's eyes flashed.
"So, Maid Guanyin, you mean to wait and see?"
Empress Zhangsun pulled Li Shimin to sit on the dragon throne, then gently massaged his shoulders and said, "That's right. By the way, have you tried Brother Zhang's method? Is it effective? "
"It is effective, but you also know that it is not easy to spread this matter. So, I did not tell anyone about this matter. This matter is only tested on a small scale."
"To be honest, I really hope that this locust plague is a joke! And Maid Guanyin, do you know? At that time, I almost announced that I would take action according to the shopkeeper's method, but … "
"But you also know that if outsiders know about this, the consequences will be unimaginable!"
Li Shimin sighed.
He knew about the locust plague in Longyou Circuit. He also knew that there were hundreds of thousands of chickens and ducks in Longyou Circuit dealing with the locust plague.
However, he had really underestimated this drought.
Basically, at least a hundred chickens and ducks were lost every day!
He also knew that he only needed to issue an imperial edict to resolve this matter. ,
But he couldn't!
He was the emperor.
Behind him were the people of the entire Tang Dynasty!
If he really did that, then …
The drought in the Tang Dynasty could no longer be concealed. Not only that, the plague of locusts would also surface.
At that time …
What would happen?
He didn't want to see that kind of ending.
They didn't want to see the Tang Dynasty either.
He had no time.
The Tang Dynasty didn't have the time either!
He only needed one year!
The Tang Dynasty only needed a year to reorganize itself!
In the Imperial Study.
It was quiet again.
Li Shimin lowered his head in deep thought, and so did Empress Zhangsun.
Outside the Imperial Study.
Night had already shrouded the entire Chang 'an City. ,
However, all the offices in Chang 'an City were still brightly lit.
The secretaries of the three provinces and six ministries were working overtime to deal with all kinds of matters at this time.
In the secretaries of the department.
Wei Zheng was so busy that his beard and hair were almost sticking together. In front of him, stacks of thick books were casually thrown on the ground.
"Longyou Circuit, documents!"
"Present them!"
"Longyou Circuit urgently needs 100,000 dans of grain!"
"Longyou Circuit sent an urgent document. A large number of deep wells in Shazhou, Ganzhou, and other places have no water! Urgent request! "
…
Looking at the urgent documents.
Everyone was aghast.
Wei Zheng was also shocked.
He waved his hand and said, "Everyone, put down all the things that you can put down. We must deal with all the matters of Longyou Circuit by tonight!"
As he spoke,.
Wei Zheng hurried out.
"I'll go to the Emperor to make a decision on this matter!"
"…"
On the other side.
The people of the three provinces and six ministries, including the Minister of Shangshu, the Secretariat, the Ministry of Menxia, the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Works, were all facing the same problem.
Zhangsun Wuji and the others were also shocked at this time.
Carrying many urgent documents, he rushed to the Taiji Palace.
This matter was too big.
If it was not handled properly, the consequences would be extremely serious!
If the matter was not handled properly, then the drought of the Tang Dynasty would be known by outsiders, then …
Everything would be over!
Outside Taiji Palace.
Everyone met again.
But this time, no one said anything.
Everyone's faces were full of fatigue. Even their eyes were bloodshot.
At this time, although no one said anything, the fact that they were here at this time meant that they had encountered the same problem!
Everyone followed the eunuch's guidance and hurried to the door of the Imperial Study.
"Wei Zheng, Zhangsun Wuji, Cheng Yaojin, Fang Xuanling, and Du Ruhui request an audience with His Majesty!"
"Urgent report from Longyou Circuit!"
"Urgent report from the border of Tubo!"
"There seems to be a riot in Tuyuhun!"
As everyone reported.
In the Imperial Study, after a moment of silence, Li Shimin's weary voice sounded.
"Enter!"
