The emperor was really scared and jumped on the spot, "Well? Grasshopper?"

The emperor was not all acting. He was really until now, and the ones shaking in front of him were all the grasshoppers that Jiuer gave him were all densely packed with heads and tails. His scalp was so numb that he jumped up, and his jumping action was also vivid.

The Empress Dowager was so funny that she laughed, "Hey, Emperor! Isn't it just a grasshopper? Look at how you jump, it's taller than a grasshopper!"

The emperor quietly stared at his mother... Oh, he was indeed not scared!

The emperor himself couldn't help but shivered again, hugged his shoulder and roared deliberately, "Can't it be that the burrito that his son had just served the emperor and was actually holding a grasshopper in the pancake he ate? Who is so brave?"

The Empress Dowager raised her eyebrows, "...I'll eat it, and I can't spit it out again. Besides, the grasshoppers are not buried, and they eat grass and seedlings in their stomachs. Throughout history, the fields are not short, and some people roast it and eat it."

The emperor was deliberately surprised, "Can this grasshopper really eat?" He frowned, "Due to this locust plague, my son reads books and checks the locust entries, and even shows that locusts are highly respected in medical books. It is said that locusts are sweet, spicy, and warm in nature. They can strengthen the spleen and digest food, calm wind and stop spasms, relieve cough and relieve asthma, and unblock the meridians. There are still many prescriptions for strengthening the stomach and digesting food. In the recipe for treating children whooping cough, they use locusts... It seems that although this locust is a pest, if the method is used properly, it may turn into harm and benefit."

As he said, he carefully glanced at the Empress Dowager. When the Empress Dowager heard that the grasshopper was not only not poisonous, but would not hurt her body if she was aged, but would also have medicinal use. The noodles even smiled.

The emperor's heart was completely put back.

"This time in Tianjin and Hebei, the son has been worried since May and June. His son has issued many decrees to instruct officials and ask them to supervise the arrest... This time he can bite their flesh hard, and really make his son feel relieved! His son never thought that catching locusts itself would become a joy, and he could make the people taste the sweetness."

The Empress Dowager couldn't help but concentrate on her son.

The terrible locust plague is that it can destroy farmland in a place, destroy the food and livelihoods of the people in a place for a year. People take locusts as plague, and only children who are ignorant of the world will enjoy catching the insect and eating a bite of live meat.

When a child grows up, they look at the locusts with the eyes of an adult, but they forget the fun they had when they were young.

The emperor raised his eyes to greet the Empress Dowager, "I can't reflect on my son: this locust plague has been going on for several months, so why can't it be extinguished? Did the son once only emphasize the method of supervising by officials, and it was a bit narrow-minded? Although the officials tried their best, how many local officials can be? In the end, the number was inferior to that of locusts. This caused a temporary extinguishing of one place. When the officials left to another place, the locusts here rose again."

"My son thinks carefully that officials can leave, but the local people are still in their original place. Why can't they collect the people to share the burden of officials? Although there are many locusts, they are like dark clouds, but can't the number of people in our Qing Dynasty be greater than them, and may not be less than them!"
