icials were talking about Shi Jin, the fourth prince.
It seemed that an official of the Ministry of Justice who was close to Shi Jin and several local government offices colluded with each other to take advantage of the recent rise of locusts in Jinzhou to secretly make money from the national disaster.

In this regard, several officials have different opinions.

Some suggested to report the matter directly to His Majesty and let His Majesty decide; others suggested to stay put first and then lure the snake out of the hole; the remaining one suggested making a secret move in the middle and take this opportunity to pull out followers of the fourth prince

At the end of the day, none of the officials discussed the locust plague in Jinzhou and only spoke about the fourth prince and the remaining princes.

When Wen Chi heard the word “locust plague”, he could not help but frown.

In the plot of the novel, the protagonist gong, the fourth prince, Shi Jin, made great contributions to this locust plague and gradually began to be reused by the emperor.

Of course, the help of Wen Liang and his system is indispensable.

Wen Chi always thought that the Jinzhou locust plague was a plot specially designed for Shi Jin and Wen Liang.
He didn’t expect that the crown prince was also worried about this matter – oh wrong, only those officials were worried.  On the contrary, the crown prince and his followers had nothing to do with himself.

Several officials argued endlessly, their faces flushed but in the end they did not come up with a single solution.

Just when the air gradually solidified, the crown prince finally opened his eyes and his eyes fell on Wen Chi, who was as quiet as a chicken.

Then he said: “You tell me.”

 “…” Wen Chi felt the glances of the officials and said embarrassedly, “His Royal Highness, I am stupid and has only read a few poetry books, which is not enough in order to express opinions on national affairs.”

“Well in that case..” Shi Ye put his chin on his hand, tilted his head and said calmly, “Among them, whose words can convince you more?”

Wen Chi: “…”

Damn, this dog prince, trying to force him to stand in line again!

 “I have just listened to the words of several lords and think that each of them is extremely right.” Wen Chi carefully chose a neutral answer.

“Oh?” Shi Ye smiled lightly but there was no smile in his eyes, “Then how do you think this matter should be resolved?”

Several officials also stared at Wen Chi.

Wen Chi felt that he was about to be stared bald at by those people.
With some bitterness in his heart, he deliberated for a moment and whispered, “Just now, I heard several lords talking about so many methods.
I dare to ask a question, do several lords have a solution to manage the locust plague?”

An official said strangely: “The management of the locust plague is the matter of the fourth prince, why should we come up with ideas?”

Wen Chi said: “If the problems that plagued the fourth prince are solved by your lords, I think His Majesty will also be impressed by you and as for other problems, won’t they all be solved?”

Several officials: “…”

The problem is that they don’t have a method to control the locust plague!
