"What is this for?"

"Why did you suddenly light up the brazier again? It's not time to warm up the fire yet. Is there something wrong with His Highness's brain?"

"I think His Highness the Crown Prince must have made fun of all of us today. What's going on? How dare you do such nonsense."

"When the brazier was raised, I saw that His Majesty's face was very ugly. I guess the Crown Prince will be deposed by His Majesty later."

The ministers looked at the suddenly lit brazier and whispered.

"Your Highness, is this what you call your method?"

"It doesn't seem to be working either."

"It seems like your prince's head is really going to fall off." The envoy of Dachu said with a sinister smile.

The emperor's face could not look better at this moment.

Chen Changfeng's sudden appearance ignited a glimmer of hope in his heart.

But now, Chen Changfeng raised a brazier in the Tai Chi Hall.

Just a brazier, trying to solve the problem of locust plague?

The emperor felt that he had been deceived, and the ridicule of the Chu envoy made his already violent heart completely unable to calm down at this moment.

"Prince, this is your..."

"Hey, a lot of locusts suddenly flew over!"

"Hey, it seems like they all flew towards the brazier!"

"Look, the locusts flew into the brazier and were burned to death!"

The emperor was about to deal with Chen Changfeng when the officials near the brazier suddenly shouted one after another.

The emperor was stunned, quickly got up from the dragon chair and walked to the brazier.

Wherever I saw it, a large number of locusts were swallowed up by the fire, and the brazier was filled with the smell of burnt meat.

The emperor stood by the brazier, his eyes a little dazed.

"Your Majesty...Your Majesty, the locusts...the locusts seem to have been burned by the fire!"

"What's going on?" Prime Minister Yao Xiaoren, who has always been resourceful, also looked confused at this moment.

He couldn't understand how good locusts would get into the fire on their own.

How could the emperor understand this?

But what he knew was that the locusts that had been scurrying around him seemed to have suddenly become less numerous.

Around the brazier, there were locust corpses scattered all over the ground.

Were all burned to death?

The emperor's eyes were full of shock and disbelief.

The second prince and the third prince both looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief.

They didn't expect that the prince, who had never shown any talent, would really have a solution to the problem of locusts today.

The second prince felt mixed feelings of joy and sorrow.

He didn't expect that Chen Changfeng, the useless prince, would actually come up with a solution to the locust plague.

It is true that in this way, the Ming Empire will not have any problems for the time being.

But Chen Changfeng's position as crown prince will not be easily abolished today.

This is not what the second prince wants.

The envoy of Dachu frowned at this moment.

If the Ming Empire could not solve the locust plague, it would no longer have the national power to compete with Chu.

And just now he had seen that Emperor Ming had the intention to cede the land south of Beiling to his Chu Empire.

But now...

"Okay!" the emperor shouted, looking at Chen Changfeng with deep admiration and satisfaction in his eyes.

The door of Tai Chi Hall was opened, and the sunlight shone into the hall again.

The ground was covered with locust corpses, and the locust corpses in the brazier were still sizzling.

"There is such a way!"

"All the locusts in the temple seem to be gone!"

"Your Majesty, this trick of His Royal Highness can really solve the locust plague!"

The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty also came to their senses at this moment, and many officials even shouted out.

No one could have imagined that the natural disaster that almost destroyed the Ming Empire could be easily solved by Chen Changfeng, whom they had never looked down upon.

"Your Highness, this method can save tens of millions of people. It is a great good, a great good!" Prime Minister Yao Xiaoren's hands and feet trembled slightly with excitement.

Seeing that all the locusts in the hall had thrown themselves into the fire, the emperor finally felt relieved.

The emperor himself secretly wondered.

The prince whom he dislikes the most actually has such talent.

Has he been hiding his clumsiness from himself, or is he really just a blind cat meeting a dead mouse?

This guy just said that he has at least five ways to solve the locust plague. Is it true or false?

In fact, when Chen Changfeng said that he had a way to solve the locust plague, the emperor also sneered at him.

What abilities does Chen Changfeng have that you don’t know yet?

The reason why Chen Changfeng was allowed to give it a try was because he wanted to treat a dead horse as a live doctor.

In addition, if Chen Changfeng is really talking nonsense to him, then he, the prince, does not need to do it anymore.

Having tolerated this prince for so long, even if I see Empress Xu secretly in the future, I can tell her that I have tried my best.

It's true that Chen Changfeng can't hold himself up to the wall.

It's just that the emperor didn't expect that this boy Chen Changfeng would actually come up with a solution.

The emperor even thought of Chen Changfeng's words that he had five solutions, but the emperor himself thought it was impossible.

"Changfeng, I am very satisfied." The emperor returned to the dragon chair, sat down slowly, and then smiled and nodded to Chen Changfeng.

"It's all because of my father's teachings." Chen Changfeng flattered the emperor in a small way.

Seeing the emperor smiling, Chen Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief.

I'm new here, so the emperor probably won't pursue the matter of oversleeping today.

Next, if you work hard and stabilize the position of the crown prince, it should not be a big problem to become the emperor of the Ming Empire in the future.

Didn’t the news say that Chen Changfeng, the crown prince of the Ming Empire, was a loser with no ambitions and only knew how to walk dogs and fight cocks?

How could he solve a natural disaster like the locust plague that humans simply couldn't fight?

Or just used a brazier to kill thousands of locusts?

The envoy of Dachu could not understand why this was happening at all.

His eyes fell on Chen Changfeng.

I saw that he was very similar to the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. He had a handsome appearance and a smile on his face, but he looked cynical.

But this is also commonplace.

The envoy of Da Chu came this time with a mission from the Emperor of Da Chu.

Before coming here, I knew a little bit about the situation of the Ming Dynasty royal family.

Among the entire Ming Dynasty royal family, only the second prince Chen Wen had some skills. Just now the second prince didn't even dare to open his mouth. It was obvious that there was nothing he could do in the face of the locust plague.

The envoys of Da Chu believed that the Ming Empire must be invaded by locusts again this time.

He planned to spread such good news back to Dachu immediately after returning to his residence.

Unexpectedly, Chen Changfeng, the Ming prince who had never been inconspicuous, suddenly appeared.

"Envoy of Da Chu, I just said that you, Da Chu, are short-sighted. Is there anything wrong with this?"

"It's just a locust plague. It can be solved with a raise of your hand." Chen Changfeng's eyes fell on the envoy of Dachu, with a look of ridicule on his face.

The envoy of Da Chu showed annoyance, but for a moment he only turned to a sneer: "His Royal Highness does have some abilities, but we in Da Chu have a lot of talents and can easily solve the locust plague. Of course, foreign ministers do not have this ability."

"And if the foreign minister heard correctly just now, His Highness the Crown Prince said that there are at least five ways to solve the locust plague."

"If we can't solve it, I'll be willing to have our heads fall to the ground."

"Ordinary people can promise a thousand pieces of gold. His Highness the Crown Prince will definitely not break his promise, and His Majesty the Ming Emperor will not forget this matter."

"The foreign minister is looking forward to the next four methods of His Royal Highness."

After the envoy from Da Chu finished speaking, all the civil and military officials fell silent.
