Chapter 731
Yinzhen sat on the high dragon chair, watching the posture of the officials below with cold eyes, his dark eyes were cold and emotionless.

"I also ate this thing, but I didn't think there was anything wrong with it. What do you all mean by this? Could it be that you think you are more noble than me?"

One sentence stopped all kinds of discussions and strange expressions of the ministers below, they were taken aback for a moment, and replied in unison, "Slaves dare not."

Yinzhen snorted coldly, "Everything is born to support people, even eating ugly things like crabs, why is this locust disgusting?"

Which of these two creatures is uglier, a crab with teeth and claws or a green locust?
They seem to be indistinguishable, they are all ugly.

But there seems to be something wrong. They reject locusts not only because they are ugly, but more importantly because of their low status. How can this kind of thing be worthy of their noble status!

Yinxiang stood up solemnly, and said in a loud voice, "Your Majesty, I think this locust tastes very good. It should be spread and let the common people eat it. In this way, when there is another locust disaster, not only can the locusts be exterminated and the loss can be reduced, but also the taste of locusts can be reduced. Filling the stomach is really a beautiful thing that kills two birds with one stone."

Kill two birds with one stone?Eating locusts has become a beautiful thing!

Many people stared at Yinxiang's back, full of resentment, and wanted to eat Yinxiang himself, don't pull them!
"Prince Yi's idea is very good, and I also plan to do so. As the Son of Heaven, I rule the people, and I should set an example for the people. You are officials with a transcendent status, and you should set an example for the people just like me."

"I plan to worry about the ministers and people worshiping at the Temple of Heaven in the future. After you go back, you will send people to the fields to catch locusts. Each person will have two catties. I will use it in the future."

Yinzhen and Yinxiang sang and settled the matter without giving the ministers a chance to intervene.

After they realized it, Yinzhen had already left, and only a group of them were left to digest Yinzhen's order like a fool: catch locusts?

OMG! ! !

Immediately, someone went to Changchun Garden to look for Kangxi and cried: "The Emperor, the Emperor is messing around. The locusts are blessed by the God of Locusts. If the God of Locusts is angered and more plagues of locusts are brought down, what will happen!"
In fact, what they want to say is that Yinzhen, the emperor, is not recognized by God, so God sent drought and locust plagues to punish Yinzhen and the world. Is it really good for Yinzhen to eat locusts like this?
This is against God!

But they could only think about this in their hearts, and they didn't dare to say a word. Yinzhen was the heir chosen by Kangxi himself, and they went to Kangxi to speak ill of Yinzhen, and they wanted to live a few more years.

The contradiction between Yinzhen and the ministers in the court is mainly reflected in the term "clean government".

Yinzhen hated corrupt officials the most, he couldn't rub sand in his eyes, but when the water was clear, there were no fish, and there was no one who was innocent, and all of them were more or less greedy. This is the way of being an official.

Yinzhen focuses on anti-corruption governance, which has touched the interests of many people, and of course they are unwilling.

In fact, Yinzhen did not drive them to a dead end. The salaries of officials in the Qing Dynasty were pitifully low. If there was no extra income, it would be impossible to support a large family, let alone daily human relations.

Therefore, in addition to salaries, officials in the Qing Dynasty also had a default gray income for Yinzhen: respect for ice and carbon, and rituals for festivals and festivals.

What Xu Zhen is doing now is only to hope that the money allocated by the imperial court, as much as it allocates, will be in the hands of the people, and that the officials at all levels who handle the money will be clean and honest.

Compared with ice respect carbon respect and various rituals, these allocations are small income, but these people don't even let this small income go, how can Yinzhen not be angry.

Greed is too much.

Yinzhen hated these corrupt officials more and more who would only talk about things instead of doing practical things. These officials didn't like Yinzhen very much either.

The relationship between the monarch and his ministers was very tense.

Kangxi naturally knew this. When he was in power, because he was old, he was soft-hearted, and he couldn't go down to rectify the administration of officials.Now that Yinzhen wants to reform, he naturally supports it.

He has already abdicated and let go of the supreme imperial power. Now Yinzhen is filial, and he is comfortable as the Supreme Emperor. Why should he do things that irritate Yinzhen.

Kangxi suppressed all the crying of these people with one sentence, "Eating locusts is just a means of disaster relief, which is no different from droughts and floods. According to you, disaster relief is against the sky, so I have long been against the sky. I've done it many times."

Disaster relief is against God?What the hell logic is this.

Kangxi was very much in favor of eating locusts, and specially asked the people in the imperial dining room to prepare a locust feast, which tasted really good.

It's just that the locust's body is too small, and it takes a lot to fill its stomach with this.

Kangxi dismissed these boring veterans with a few words, and ordered people to catch locusts for experiments to see how to make the locusts last longer.

When the officials returned home, Yinzhen's order to eat locusts spread quickly in the capital.

Many people are wondering if Yinzhen is crazy. Locusts have existed since ancient times. I have never heard of an emperor who ordered the people to eat locusts!

But when Yinzhen's order came down, no one dared to disobey. Besides, they had already eaten locusts in Yuanmingyuan, and they all ordered their servants to catch locusts.

Now the plague of locusts has not yet spread here, and the locusts are scattered and hidden in the grass. If you want to catch two catties, you really can't do it in a short while.

Xinde Academy.

Yirao closely followed Yinzhen's call, and ordered someone to add a fresh dish at noon that day: fried locusts.

And she also gave this dish a nice name: migratory locust tengda,

But no matter how nice the name is, it can't conceal the locust essence of this dish. This is a locust, and those ministers are unwilling to eat it, let alone these delicate ladies.

I do not want to eat?
I am the master of my territory, and Yilao became domineering again, forcing everyone to eat. If they don't eat, every day for the next two weeks will be an agricultural class.

The so-called agricultural class is mainly to help nearby farmers with farm work, and now the most important farm work is to irrigate crops with a load.

To carry the load for two weeks?
Many people's faces are pale, it's so hateful, so insane and so inhuman!

It turned out to be a choice between eating locusts and agricultural lessons, my God!The principal is terrible!
Many girls were forced into tears by Yi Rao. They paid the money to learn all kinds of knowledge, not to suffer all kinds of inhuman torture!
Yi Rao was holding a small blue and white porcelain dish with some fried locusts on it. While reprimanding the girls, she threw the locusts into her mouth, chewing them deliciously.

Of course she saw the girls' tears, looked up at the sky, she sighed faintly, and left behind a sentence these girls will never forget, "Life is like rape, if you can't resist, just enjoy it in silence."

As soon as these words came out, not only the girls sitting at the dining table were petrified, but also the cook standing behind the window was petrified.

God!Prince Yi Fujin said something wonderful!
