Princess, come home quickly, the God of War Prince is going to be jealous to death!

"Girl, some housekeepers said that there are locusts in the village and they don't know what to do." Luo Chuan cupped his hands and reported to Wen Zhi.

"Locusts actually appeared." Wen Zhiyue was surprised at first, and then asked calmly, "How many days have the locusts appeared?"

"It's been three days. At first there were just a few locusts, but the next day there were several times more. The old slave didn't know how to deal with it, so he went to other villages. As a result, there were locusts in every village." One of the white-haired old housekeepers Sighing, she replied to Wen Zhiyue's words.

"Luochuan, take a few housekeepers to rest first." Wen Zhiyue ordered calmly.

The housekeepers looked at each other, and the white-haired old housekeeper stepped forward and asked softly, "I wonder what the village owner can do to deal with it. Tens of thousands of acres of fertile land cannot be destroyed by locusts."

"Don't worry, old housekeeper. Tens of thousands of acres of fertile land are related to the lives of tens of thousands of people. I will find a way. The housekeepers will go with Luochuan to rest first. When I think of a way, I will let you know." Wen Zhiyue comforted the housekeepers softly. .

Luo Chuan reached out to several housekeepers to guide them. After the housekeepers bowed their hands to Wen Zhiyue, they turned around and followed Luo Chuan out the door.

"Girl, what should we do now?" Xuemei said with worry on her face and her brows furrowed.

"If it is true that there are locusts everywhere in the fields as several housekeepers said, then there will definitely be a food panic this winter." Wen Zhiyue looked at Xuemei calmly, "Xuemei, go and call the housekeeper from the garden."

"Yes." Xuemei said and walked out.

Two-quarters of an hour later, Xuemei brought the manor housekeeper to Wen Zhiyue's courtyard.

After the butler saluted, Wen Zhiyue motioned for the butler to sit down.

"Several housekeepers in other places said that there were a large number of locusts in the village. I wonder if there are locusts in our village." Wen Zhiyue asked calmly.

"Old slave has visited many fertile fields in the village in the past few days. Although there are locusts in the fields, they will not become a disaster." The steward replied softly.

"The fertile farmland in the village is usually treated with special treatment." Wen Zhiyue looked at the housekeeper in confusion. She wanted to get an answer from the housekeeper.

"It's all normal planting, transplanting, and weeding. There's no special care." After pondering for a moment, the housekeeper replied calmly.

"In that case, you go and do your work first." Wen Zhiyue looked at the housekeeper with some disappointment.

The housekeeper stood up, saluted Wen Zhiyue, and then slowly exited the room.

Watching the housekeeper walking away, Wen Zhiyue called Xuemei, "Xuemei, follow me to the wheat fields in the village."

"The girl has doubts about what the housekeeper just said." Xuemei picked up the cloak and put it on Wen Zhiyue. Wen Zhiyue turned around and glanced at Xuemei, "I believe what the housekeeper said, but I want to see it for myself."

"Yes." Xuemei followed Wen Zhiyue out of the courtyard, and the two of them hurried towards the wheat fields in the village.

An hour later, the yellow wheat field appeared in front of them.

"Girl, look how well these wheat fields have grown this year." Xuemei looked into the distance with a smile on her face.

"Yes, if there is no invasion of locusts, the harvest will be ready in a while." Wen Zhiyue looked at the endless wheat fields, her brows furrowed. She was worried that the locusts would damage the crops, and the people would not have enough to eat in winter.

The two got off their horses, tied their horses to a tree on the side of the road, and walked towards the field. After walking for a while, they did not see a large number of locusts, but there were some more chickens in the field, and they were busy walking in the field. What a joy.

"Girl, how come there are so many chickens in this field?" Xuemei looked at the chickens in the field in confusion and couldn't help but complain, "I don't know which farmer raised them. If they eat the wheat, wouldn't they lose money?" Some food."

"If they were raised by farmers, there wouldn't be so many of them." Wen Zhiyue raised her head and looked into the distance. There was a thatched shed not far away. "Xuemei, let's go there and ask."

When the two of them walked to the hut, a couple walked up to them.

"Girl, these are wheat fields. If you are looking for someone, you can go to the various courtyards in the village." The old woman looked at Wen Zhiyue and Xuemei warily.

"Don't worry, Auntie, we came here because we don't know anything, and we want to ask for clarification." There was a hint of warmth on Wen Zhiyue's soft face.

The couple looked at each other and then looked at each other again.

"That's it. Outside in Zhuangzi, the fields are full of locusts. Why are there so few locusts in our garden?" Wen Zhiyue asked the couple her doubts.

"There were a lot of locusts here a few days ago. It was just a steward of the village who went away and asked us and my wife to take care of them for a few days." The woman sighed, "It takes more than an hour to get to the village from here. The round trip is too time-consuming. The two of us Well, just drive the chickens here and let them roam free in the fields."

"Aren't you worried that the chicken will eat the wheat?" Xuemei looked at the old woman doubtfully.

"I was a little worried at first, but these chickens have been catching bugs and eating them in the past few days and have not wasted the food. So the two of us didn't pay much attention. At night, the chickens will follow the leading chicken back to the horse chicken coop not far away. ." The old woman said to the two of them in detail sincerely.

Wen Zhiyue was shocked when she heard what the old woman said. She thanked the couple and quickly returned to the courtyard with Xuemei.

"Xuemei, ask Luo Chuan to tell all the housekeepers to go to the market immediately to buy chickens. The more the better, and put the chickens in the fields." Wen Zhiyue's eyes were determined, and her heart seemed to feel a little better.

"Yes." After Xuemei left, Wen Zhiyue walked to the desk and started flipping through the books. Although she didn't know if those chickens could drive away the locusts, this was currently the only way to deal with some locusts. In the book she found even stronger proof that her idea was right.

On the other side, after Ye Nanxuan and Ye Han left the manor, they did not go back to the Western Camp, but went to Fengqing City.

Although Fengqing City has returned to Tianyu, the city is dead silent and the streets are desolate. There is no one in sight along the way, and the once bustling stores on both sides of the street have become dilapidated.

Not far away, a dozen patrolling soldiers came forward. Ye Han greeted the soldiers and showed his token to the leader of the soldiers. After saluting Ye Nanxuan, the dozen soldiers headed towards the city gate.

"My lord, the houses in this city have been severely damaged and the people have fled in all directions. I'm afraid it will be difficult to return to their original appearance in a short time." Ye Han looked at the dilapidated houses around him and couldn't help but feel a little sad.

He and the prince guarded the border in the west. They knew that the war brought not only psychological fear to the people, but also the despair of losing their relatives and women being bullied and having nowhere to redress their grievances.

"The Dongyue Kingdom overestimated its capabilities and crossed the border to harass Tian Yu's people. If this revenge is not avenged, all countries will think that Tian Yu is weak and can be bullied. I have sent a letter back to Kyoto. It won't be long before the transfer order will arrive." Ye. Nan Xuan looked at the ruins around him, with murderous intent in his eyes.
