After returning to the palace, Zhao Qingrui issued an imperial decree on the treatment of farmers in the desert area so that everyone knew about it.
"Your Majesty, it is very difficult to grow plants in those places in the desert, and only a few can survive. Is it really necessary to invest so much?" Feng Quji somewhat disagreed with Zhao Qingrui's approach.
"Feng Qing, you should think positively. If farmers can develop high-yield crops, and even grow them in desert areas, then our Great Qin's granaries will be full." Zhao Qingrui chuckled. In the eyes of these people, desert areas are probably a burden.
At least the grassland can be used to raise sheep and horses, so that the Qin Dynasty will not be short of cattle, sheep and horses and can eat more meat.
As for the desert, the conditions there are too harsh and water resources are scarce. Much of the grain from the Qin Dynasty cannot be grown there.
The desert is now included in the territory of Daqin. Apart from being large enough, it has no other function. It also wastes food and a lot of educational resources. It is really not worth it.
There are many people in the court who think this way, and many of them do not take the desert seriously.
Zhao Qingrui knew all of this, and she couldn't make them change their minds for the time being, so she could only take it slowly.
If we want to change their minds, we have to rely on the farmers.
"Is this really possible?" Feng Quji hesitated.
If Zhao Qingrui had not said this with such confidence, some people in the court would have written a petition to give up these areas.
"Of course, everything is possible." Zhao Qingrui said firmly.
Maybe in the future, the entire desert will turn into an oasis.
"The Qin treasury can afford these expenses. I think it's worth it." Zhao Qingrui continued.
"I was short-sighted. I will warn the officials below to control their speech." Feng Quji sighed and decided to listen to Zhao Qingrui.
At present, there have been no major problems with the policies proposed by Zhao Qingrui. Even if there are problems, they are still internal problems within the court.
"I'm glad that Mr. Feng can understand." Zhao Qingrui smiled a little more. It's great that Feng Quji can now accept many new ideas.
As long as it is not a confidential matter in the court, these decrees will be spread throughout the Qin Dynasty at the fastest speed.
The result of doing this is very obvious. The people of Qian became more loyal to the Qin Dynasty, and those who were causing trouble in secret sometimes did not even need the court to investigate, as the people of Qian had already exposed them.
There was a lot of discussion about this matter outside, and Zhao Qingrui would go out and listen when he had nothing to do. Although his control over other places was not as strong as that in Xianyang, Zhao Qingrui knew the situation in Xianyang very clearly.
"Your Majesty, Young Master Ying Yuan requests an audience." While Zhao Qingrui was leisurely drinking the milk tea brought by the cook, the palace maid came to report.
"Ying Yuan? Let him in." Zhao Qingrui paused.
What was the reason for Ying Yuan to come here at this time? Zhao Qingrui touched his chin.
In fact, she didn't like to meddle in the affairs of the royal family. Those people were too distant from her and they often caused trouble for her. It was better for her to be more obedient to those in the court.
"Greetings to Your Majesty, may Your Majesty live forever." Ying Yuan came in and bowed respectfully.
"No need to be so polite. Why are you coming to me at this time?" Zhao Qingrui said lightly.
Ying Yuan slowly stood up and looked at Zhao Qingrui calmly, "Your Majesty, I have made all the necessary arrangements and will go to Lingnan first to make final preparations for my trip to the vassal state."
"Are you ready so quickly?" Zhao Qingrui raised her eyebrows. Zhao Qingrui knew everything that Ying Yuan and the others had done during this period.
Although Ying Yuan behaved properly, he had actually made a lot of preparations in secret. Zhao Qingrui knew everything he had done and was not afraid of what he was going to do.
As long as he didn't actually do anything now, she could tolerate it.
"Everything is ready. It is under your Majesty's rule that the Qin Dynasty is so prosperous. You can buy anything you want. Your Majesty's achievements will be remembered forever." Ying Yuan said seriously.
Zhao Qingrui looked at Ying Yuan silently. She didn't expect that he would compliment her. It was really strange.
"Now that everything is ready, let's go to Lingnan to find Wang Li and the others, and bring my handwritten letter with you." Zhao Qingrui said after thinking for a while, not caring about Ying Yuan's flattery.
"Yes." Seeing that Zhao Qingrui agreed, Ying Yuan breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously. He was really worried that Zhao Qingrui would detain him or send a few people to monitor him.
If Zhao Qingrui really spoke up, if he refused, she might become suspicious of him.
Ying Yuan had no idea that several Jinyiwei had already infiltrated his team.
"Since there is nothing wrong, please leave." Not wanting to see Ying Yuan's face, Zhao Qingrui directly ordered him to leave.
"I'll take my leave." Ying Yuan also felt that there was nothing more to say.
After Ying left, Zhao Qingrui stroked Xiaobai's fur from time to time and began to think about the newly appointed princes.
She wasn't surprised that Ying Yuan was ready so quickly, but what was he doing so early?
According to her plan, all the princes would be ready before the end of the year, and after the spring of the following year, the army would set out to attack the Maurya Empire.
There is still half a year left, and he has gone to Lingnan so early.
Could it be that he is still in contact with people from the Maurya Dynasty and is preparing to do something?
Thinking of this, Zhao Qingrui narrowed his eyes slightly. He couldn't just ignore it.
"Chuandun is weak."
——
Xiao He and Cao Shen came to Longxi County, where they had previously served and had only returned to Xianyang for less than two years.
Now that they are back again, both of them have complicated feelings.
"Brother Xiao, we will be going our separate ways in the next few days." Cao Shen bowed to Xiao He.
