Daming: In the beginning, he mistakenly regarded Emperor Yongle as his own father

He got up and ran to the field to check. The sweet potato leaves that should have been lush and lush are now basically bare, leaving only vines.

"what happened?"

Although sweet potatoes grow in the soil, they have no leaves and cannot photosynthesize, so they cannot provide nutrients.

These farmers are really big-hearted, and they don't care if they are eaten like this.

"Brother Lu, do you think this is a locust?"

Yu Qian also noticed that something was wrong, so he peeled open the sweet potato vine and grabbed a locust from it.

"Why is this locust so big? This is the first time I have seen such a big locust."

Yu Qian smiled happily and waved the locust Lu Lin.

Lu Lin looked over, good guy, this locust must be half the size of his palm, several times bigger than normal locusts.

Locusts have always existed, but such a large one is rare.

Lu Lin suddenly realized something, secretly screamed that it was not good, and said in a hurry.

"Quick, I'm digging through it to find if there are any more."

After speaking, he quickly started.

Although Yu Qian didn't know what to send, but seeing Lu Lin's urgency, he didn't dare to delay, so he hurried to look for it.

It doesn't matter if you don't look for it. When you look for it, you find that the whole sweet potato field is full of locusts. No wonder they can eat the sweet potato leaves like this.

After a while, Yu Qian came over holding dozens of locusts.

"Brother Lu, this is too much."

Lu Lin glanced at the locust, and then looked at the surrounding sweet potato fields.

A look of worry immediately filled his face.

"Something happened."

"Take a bag and pack these locusts, we have to go back quickly."

"The princess of Jiaxing..."

"I can't take care of it anymore, I will explain to her later." Lu Lin interrupted him, put on the locust and flew back to Nanjing City.

Back in Nanjing City, he didn't even go home, and went straight to Yingtian Mansion.

But he forgot that the governor of Yingtian Mansion is a third-rank official, so he had to participate in the plowing ceremony today, and he was not in the yamen at all at this time.

"Xianzi Lu, you have something important to do with our lord?"

The yamen servant heard that the person who came was Lu Lin Lu, and his attitude was very good.

Not to mention that Lu Xianzi has the title of Shiyi, just the few earth-shattering and weeping ghosts and gods he has done recently deserves the respect of the government officials.

"Yes, very important thing."

As Lu Lin said, he handed the cloth bag to the yamen servant.

"When your lords come back, I beg you all to hand it over to him for me."

As Lu Lin spoke, he took out a few taels of silver and stuffed it into the hands of the yamen servant.

"Thank you, brother."

When the yamen servant saw Lu Xianzi stuffing him with money, he was so frightened that he quickly pushed it back.

"Ms. Lu, this is impossible. It is our good fortune to be able to work for Mr. Lu..."

Lu Lin didn't have time to talk to them, so he stuffed it directly into their hands, and asked repeatedly before leaving.

"It must be handed over to Mr. Fu Yin."

The yamen servant got the money and was flattered, so he quickly agreed.

"Don't worry, magistrate, I will give the things to him as soon as my lord comes back."

Only then did Lu Lin feel a little relieved.

When Lu Lin left, the other yamen servants immediately ran over, saying with envy and hatred.

"I thought Lu Xianzi would be difficult to serve because of his achievements at such a young age, but unexpectedly he is so approachable."

"Isn't it? Look at those county magistrates on weekdays. When they see us, which one is not arrogant and doesn't treat us as human beings at all. Only Lu county magistrate treats us differently."

"That's the difference."

"He still calls me brother." The yamen servant just said proudly.

"I have long heard that Lu Xianzi has the appearance of a celestial being. When I saw him today, he really has an extraordinary bearing."

Lu Lin didn't know that the most normal way of dealing with people would attract so many compliments

He doesn't care about these things right now. Judging by the size and number of these locusts, a serious locust plague is about to break out in Daming.

If he remembered correctly, after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, there was a relatively serious locust plague in the seventh year of Hongwu.

At that time, five prefectures suffered disasters, and Yongle prefecture alone had one prefecture and six counties, causing half of the prefectures and counties in the north to suffer.

Caused by locusts, the sky is blocked out, and no grass grows.

After the locust plague, it is easy to break out the plague again.

At that time, not to mention starving and dying everywhere, even a mountain of corpses and bones may be possible.

Although these are all matters of the imperial court, since Lu Lin found out, it is naturally impossible to pretend that he did not see anything.

Too ignorant of conscience.

Lu Lin sent someone to wait in front of Yingtian Mansion's gate, and if he saw Fu Yin coming back, he would report it immediately.

At the same time, he sent someone to find his father.

His father knew a small official from the household department, or through this small official, let the matter be heard by heaven.

But he waited and waited, but what he waited for was not news from his father and Ying Tian Fu Yin.

It was Jiaxing who was in a state of embarrassment and was injured.
