Lu Chensheng frowned. He had anticipated this situation before.

With the road guides cancelled, people will naturally go out in order to make more money and get more life opportunities.

And in places where the land is barren, it is impossible to retain people.

"Although this will waste a lot of places, it can also bring enough productivity to other places. If they can't retain people, that's a matter for local officials. They just want to lead the people to get rich. If they can do it, the people will

How can you be willing to leave your homeland?"

Lu Chensheng pondered for a moment and replied.

When the doctor heard this, he was startled. He probably didn't expect that the emperor would respond like this.

According to what the emperor said, those officials who have fewer and fewer people under their jurisdiction may be in trouble in the future.

"Now that the war has subsided, the whole country needs to rest and recuperate. People from the Ministry of Industry are responsible for the construction of hydraulic roads, but tree planting is also indispensable. How many places are there now where everything is covered with yellow sand and loess at a glance? The old man has a far-sighted vision.

Less than a tree?

The current scene is like the last years of the dynasty."

Lu Chensheng opened his mouth and issued his decree.

Lu Chensheng had been putting this matter aside for a long time, and now it was finally time for the ministers to take action.

In ancient times, there were not so many green mountains and green waters, but more scorched earth.

During times of famine, people ate the bark of trees and cut down trees for firewood. Excessive felling left many places with no trees on the mountains.

There are red fields on both sides of the official road.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid this will leave the Jiao Fus with no firewood to cut, and there is also coal, all of which comes from trees. If they are not cut down, this..."

Behind the logging, there is still a lot of production. If it is banned, it will affect the livelihood of many people.

Therefore, some ministers immediately stood up worriedly, hoping that the emperor would take back his order.

"There is no conflict between planting and cutting down trees. It just needs to be stipulated that young trees cannot be cut down and thousand-year-old trees cannot be cut down. Is this feasible?"

Just cutting down the forest behind it has indeed given countless people a livelihood.

The people were hurriedly prevented from cutting down trees, which would probably leave many people without food.

Lu Chensheng knows, but there can be some restrictions here.

At first glance, outside the city, there is a vast expanse of yellow sand and loess, which is too unsightly, as if it looked like it was at the end of the dynasty.

Here, if Lu Chensheng doesn’t start doing this now, I’m afraid it will be too late later.

When it comes to planting trees, the sooner the better.

After hearing what the emperor said, all the officials immediately had no objections. The emperor had considered it so thoroughly, how could they have other opinions?

When the sun rises three poles, the Xinghan Empire's first court meeting ends.

Seeing that the ministers had nothing else to do, Lu Chensheng waved his hand and announced his resignation.

The officials bowed and left the hall one by one, quarreling over some things along the way.

Lu Chensheng got on the dragon boat and returned to the palace.

"What food has been prepared in the imperial dining room?"

Lu Chensheng was also very hungry. He hadn't eaten anything in the morning. It would be strange not to be hungry at noon.

"Your Majesty, according to the rules, it is not yet meal time."

When the palace maid heard this, she immediately responded.

The rules in the palace are very strict, and the emperor's meal times are fixed.

Lu Chensheng's face darkened when he heard this, "There are no need to have so many rules when eating. Go to the imperial kitchen and ask the imperial chef over there to prepare some food. Starving the emperor is a capital crime."

When the palace maid heard this, she quickly went to the imperial kitchen in panic.

"The Queen wishes to see you."

Lu Chensheng had just sat down when Qiong Yue came over. After the palace maid informed her, she got the promise and saw Qiong Yue walking in.

Xu has become a queen, and now Qiong Yue needs to put her hair up and dress up.

At first glance, Linyu and Bai Yi also came over. Both women had dressed up in the same way, and they obviously had more rules than before.

"Hurry and meet my father."

Qiong Yue took Yueyue and Yiyi to Lu Chensheng and asked the two girls to pay homage to their father.

"What are you doing with so many gifts?"

Seeing his two well-behaved daughters, Lu Chensheng stepped forward and hugged them both.

The two daughters were instantly happy and grabbed Lu Chensheng with their little hands. They were quite curious that Lu Chensheng was wearing a dragon robe.

"Father, that nun in the palace is so annoying. She wants Yueyue to learn a lot of things."

Yueyue came to complain, pouting with dissatisfaction on her face.

"Which nanny?"

Lu Chensheng was startled and said a little strangely.

Qiong Yue answered, "It's Grandma Li, the chief minister of the palace who is in charge of Yueyue and the others' etiquette. Although Yueyue and the others are still young, it's time for them to learn some etiquette. As princesses, these royal etiquettes are naturally required.

"

Yueyue pouted, "Father, my daughter doesn't want to learn, there are too many rules!"

"What can you do if you don't learn? Yueyue, don't mess around!"

Qiong Yue usually doted on Yue Yue, but when she heard these words, she immediately gave a soft drink.

Yueyue listened and quickly closed her mouth, not daring to say any more.

Seeing this, Lu Chensheng was helpless. He couldn't go along with Yue Yue on this matter. He could only appease the other party. If he learned more, he wouldn't need to study anymore.

"Your Majesty, are you still used to it today?"

Today is Lu Chensheng's first court appearance, and Qiong Yue also came here specially to take a look.

"Everything is fine, I'm just hungry."

Lu Chensheng smacked his mouth, feeling really hungry.

When Qiong Yue heard this, she immediately pursed her lips and smiled, "I have asked Xiaoyu to go to the imperial kitchen. I believe it will be ready soon."

Lu Chensheng was overjoyed when he heard that the things Xiaoyu made were very to his liking.

Lu Chensheng sat down with his two daughters in his arms. The two daughters were not young, and it was a bit tiring to hold them all the time.

Qiong Yue probably knew when Lu Chensheng retired from the court. Not long after he came, Xiaoyu led people and brought food trays to the outside of the palace.

Lu Chensheng immediately asked someone to bring it in. He smelled the aroma on the table and immediately moved his chopsticks.

Yueyue was also hungry and started eating together.

Qiong Yue frowned slightly as she looked at it. What Aunt Li was teaching was not like this. It seemed like the two of them needed to learn more.

"Ministers, is there anything you can do to embarrass the Emperor?"

Qiongyue sat down. She had just eaten not long ago, so she was not hungry at the moment.

Her bedroom was quite far away from here, unlike before. She could see Lu Chensheng when she got up. Feeling a little uncomfortable, she brought Bai Yi and the two girls over, wanting to talk to Lu Chensheng.

"Of course not. There is nothing that those ministers can do to embarrass me."

When talking to Qiong Yue and the others, Lu Chensheng still didn't put on much airs and seemed extremely calm.
