Chapter 81 Gathering in Xiangyang
The Xu family went out to the fields collectively. Zhou Shaoyu, who was "having trouble" on the street, heard Zhou Jin's report and immediately followed.

Xie Yanyan put the sprayer on the ground and pumped it hard. When the pressure in the sprayer was strong enough, she opened the enhanced sprayer nozzle.

Ordinary sprayer nozzles can only spray about two or three meters away, but the enhanced version is very powerful.

The high-pressure atomizing nozzle sprays out more than 20 meters from the bell mouth in an instant. The length of the white mist exceeds 20 meters and the width exceeds 5 meters.

Xu Wenrong tucked his white robe on his belt, carried the medicine bucket on his back, and followed Xie Yanyan's instructions, spraying pesticides as he walked. When the pressure in between was not enough, he stopped and pumped harder, and the bean sprouts in the seven or eight ridges quickly grew. All sprayed with pesticides.

Due to the drought this year, there are many locusts in Suizhou's farmland, but they have not caused an overwhelming disaster.

The bugs in the farmland have never been poisoned by pesticides and have no drug resistance. Xu Wenrong's pesticide mist passed over again. In less than 10 minutes, the locusts turned their bellies and the bean caterpillars fell directly to the ground.

Xu Xiangpu was so excited that his beard trembled, and he kept saying: "Ayan, have you seen that your granddaughter is amazingly talented..."

Zhou Shaoyu really felt his heart sinking in his stomach at this moment. He was also worried at first.

She really has insecticide poison.

And this is called a sprayer, right? Absolutely amazing invention, how did she come up with it?

After Xu Huanzhang and Xu Wenrong inspected the farmland, they eagerly began to look around the sprayers.

"This medicine is called Locust Killer. There are a lot of locusts and caterpillars in the fields here. Just spray them all once. If you can't kill them all with one spray, do it a second time."

Xie Yanyan gave Xu Wenrong a bottle of Locust Killer Spirit and told him how to use it, and Xu Wenrong wrote it down.

I repeatedly told him: "Even if pesticides are not poisonous if they touch the skin, they are still poison and must be kept properly."

Back at Xu's house, Xu Xiangpu was so excited that his beard kept standing up.

Without saying anything, he led a group of people into the study.

Xu Xiangpu said excitedly: "Yan'er, how did you prepare these insecticides?"

"Read a book."

"..."

Xu Xiangpu wanted to ask what book it was, but looking at Xie Yanyan's appearance, he didn't want to tell.

"Uncle, don't worry, I can definitely kill the locusts, but I don't want others to know what method I used."

Xu Xiangpu said worriedly: "Then have you thought of a way to cover it up?"

"Well, first let's have people dig trenches and block them, drive the locusts into the trenches, gather them and annihilate them."

"Let the people exchange locusts for grain, a pound of locusts for a pound of grain."

After Xie Yanyan finished speaking, Xu Huanzhang asked: "Yan'er, do you know that a batch of locusts alone can cost more than 10 dan by culling them alone. Can you raise 10 dan of food?"

Xie Yanyan: "Yes."

Xu Xiangpu, Xu Huanzhang, and Xu Wenrong can no longer do it.

Little girl, do you know that 10 shi of grain is such a huge pile?

Xu Huanzhang: "Yan'er, your heart is good. Do you know that the officialdom is not as clear as well water? Not all officials will treat the people as human beings. The more serious the disaster, the more opportunities they have to fight for power and gain?"

Xu Huanzhang has a thorough understanding of officialdom and truly treats her as a relative.

Seeing that he really cared about her, Xie Yanyan explained why he insisted on going to the northwest to control locusts: King Xi invited Wang Zhen from the Wang family in Kuaiji, and he might take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate locusts and capture the prince in one fell swoop.

King Xi has been stationing troops, and she unintentionally teamed up with Prince Zhou to take over King Xi's weapons depot and grain dens in Langming Mountain. She and King Xi were destined to be in trouble.

In addition, he also talked about his own invention of the Quyuuli, and the prince personally came to issue the decree, promising to treat the Xie family well and exonerate the Xie Anfeng family.

"My father and I came to my uncle's place this time to ask him what he thinks of the world situation? What should my father and I choose?"

When Xie Yanyan said this, Xu Xiangpu and Xu Huanzhang were silent for a moment.

Xu Huanzhang met the prince. The man was kind but lacked the aura of a king.

Originally, they wanted to try their best to assist the prince in order to exonerate Xie Anfeng. But now it seems that acquittal is not a problem for the niece and granddaughter.

"Wang Zhen is good at divination." Xu Wenrong said, "For him to be invited by King Xi, he must have sensed something." Based on his own historical knowledge, Xie Yanyan did not agree with Xu Wenrong's prediction of King Xi. Although this fictional era has some differences from the original history, it is generally heading in the right direction.

If King Xi cannot succeed, the former Qin will be destroyed.

Xu Xiangpu was almost stunned: "Yan'er, how do you know that the former Qin Dynasty will be destroyed?"

"Emperor Xuanwen was self-willed and too ambitious. Now the North Sea King and the East Sea King have been innocently exterminated. Beidi, Xirong, Nanman, and 16 countries are watching with eager eyes. There is a lack of good generals to protect the east and the north. The prince is kind but not decisive enough. King Xi is a bit smart. , is ruthless enough, but not far-sighted enough.”

King Xi could defeat the prince, but he could not defeat the northern countries. As long as Emperor Xuanwen died, the world would be in chaos.

Xu Xiangpu, Xu Huanzhang and Xu Wenrong all had goosebumps when they heard this.

Xie Yanyan's analysis of the world situation was pretty much what they expected.

In the future, there will be great chaos, and the heroes of the world will compete in the Central Plains. Who will win, everything is unpredictable.

Wang Zhen's choice of King Xi was just a gamble by choosing a general to assist him among the cripples.

"There are intact eggs under the overturned nest. If Beidi goes south, the Central Plains will inevitably be in chaos. Kyoto will not be protected, and the powerful people in the court will die without a place to die. We, the Xie family, were exiled to Lingnan. It was a blessing in disguise that we escaped the war."

Xie Yanyan raised Danfeng's cold eyes, and Xu Xiangpu's heart was struck hard.

If Yan'er hadn't been born as a girl, he would have almost bowed his head and worshiped her. This is the vision and courage that the Lord of the World should have.

On this day, no one except them knew what Xie Yanyan, Xie Anfeng and Xu Xiangpu's family said in the study.

I only know that the Xu family flew pigeons to pass the letter, intercepted the letter to Emperor Xuanwen in Kyoto, and never mentioned the matter of assisting the prince.

Xie Anfeng and Xie Yanyan left the Xu family, and their eldest grandson Xu Wenrong followed them to the northwest.

Zhou Shaoyu and Zhou Jin were resting in the inn and waiting for them. When they came out, three fast horses and a double-wheel drive carriage galloped northwest together.

Several people entered the city limits of Xiangyang and saw a man and a horse waiting on the roadside at the intersection. Maybe he had been waiting for a long time. The man tied the horse to the stake and chewed a piece of grass in boredom.

Watching the two-wheel-drive carriage approaching from a distance, he looked carefully over and over again in the flying dust.

Ah, a two-wheel-drive carriage! He jumped up all of a sudden, waved his hands and shouted: "Miss Xie, Miss Xie."

Zhou Shaoyu covered his face with a face towel to protect him from sand and dust. He came up to him, pulled off the towel, and kicked Dong Shisan: "I'm here, can't you see?"

Dong Shisan chuckled: "Your Majesty, I am blind, you are covering your face with a cloth, how can you tell? I only recognize that this carriage is a gift from His Majesty."

Xie Yanyan poked his head out from the car curtain and asked in surprise: "Dong Shisan, are you waiting for me here?"

"Yes, the Crown Prince sent a message to His Majesty, saying that he invited Miss Xie to exterminate the locusts. His Highness the Crown Prince requested an order from His Majesty and came to exterminate the locusts with Miss Xie."

Dong Shisan said with a smile, "His Royal Highness has been waiting in the city all day."

Zhou Shaoyu did the math and sent the letter. The prince would leave on the same day, right? It's so annoying, he's everywhere! Running so fast, I wonder if that small body is falling apart?
Dong Shisan wrinkled his nose again and said, "Prince Xi is also in Xiangyang."
