"Zhou Mian, prepare some for the ministers as well."
Ministers: ...
Your Majesty, please stop talking.
However, everyone still drank the goat milk and ate the cakes obediently.

The next day.
East Suburb Military Camp.
The three envoys looked at the tent in front of them with deep doubts.
"Your Majesty, in such a cold winter, are your soldiers sleeping in tents like this?"
Qi Yuanlong raised his hand and asked the question that everyone wanted to know.
Even Keta walked forward and carefully felt the texture of the tent.
You should know that in their grasslands, in winter, they would put some warm blankets on top of the tents, and soft blankets inside.
"Why does this tent feel like it has a center?"
Keta Yuemo Yue felt a little strange. It happened that this was General Wu from the East Suburb Military Camp, who came with his men to greet everyone.
"Your Majesty, I am late." General Wu saluted Qin Yuanhao and then looked at the envoys beside him.
"Messengers, this is our Great Qin Eastern Suburbs Military Camp. Once inside, all military rules must be followed. Please do not run around."
Sang Zhen looked depressed, and the Sang warriors behind him wanted to step forward and argue with him.
But Sang Zhen stopped him with his hand.
He knew that General Wu had always been at odds with General Yang and had a bad temper. He could easily provoke General Yang and make him make a mistake.
Wouldn't that be better?
General Wu glanced at Sang Zhen and recalled the secret letter sent by his old friend.
This Sang Zhen is full of bad intentions, and who knows where he might set a trap for him.
"Your Majesty, let's go!"
Qin Yuanhao had great respect for General Wu.
He immediately pushed the little princess and took Concubine Chen inside.
Back then, General Wu led a thousand men to resist the ten thousand spies sent by the State of Chu, making the King of Chu dare not act rashly.
Otherwise, the State of Chu would have ordered an attack on the Qin State long ago, and there would be no opportunity to come to the military camp to compete now.
Warriors from all countries were waiting outside the tent.
When everyone entered the tent, they found that it was extremely warm.
In the middle was a large stove with what seemed to be a charcoal fire burning inside, and a large pot placed on top.
There was boiling mutton soup inside, and the smoke from the burning charcoal extended directly outside the tent from the bamboo tube next to it.
There are even small holes in several corners of the tent for ventilation.
This tent is a great improvement. We don't have to worry about gas poisoning, and they've even assigned soldiers to take turns, so safety is guaranteed.
As soon as they entered the tent and felt a little warmer, they saw that several people from Daqin had already started to take off their cloaks.
Everyone: ???
Is it that hot?
What they didn't know was that from Qin Yuanhao to the lowest-ranking soldiers here, everyone wore down vests and down jackets, and even down pants.
Do you think it can be not hot?
Fine beads of sweat were already appearing on the tip of Qin Yuanhao's nose, and Zhou Mian was so scared that he quickly put away His Majesty's cloak.
Qin Yuanhao waved his hand and looked at the stroller, "Concubine Chen, take a look at the little princess, don't let her get too hot."
Qi Yuanling suddenly remembered that when she was at the farm before, Concubine Chen was wearing very thin clothes, but her hands were very warm.
She didn't know why at the time, but she was afraid that it was similar to today.
Seeing that the little princess was fine, Qin Yuanhao looked at General Wu and ordered his men to prepare mutton soup.
"Keta, try this mutton soup. This is the lamb that was slaughtered this morning and has been stewed here. I'm afraid it's already delicious."
Keta was deeply moved. His Majesty the Great Qin took such good care of him that he would tell his royal brother about it in detail after he returned to the barbarian tribe.
There will surely be friendly exchanges between them and the Qin Dynasty for a hundred years.
"This soup is really delicious, not inferior to ours on the grassland at all."
After a round of greetings, General Wu got down to business.
"Your Majesty, there will be a safety briefing in the military camp today from a teacher sent by the academy. The military competition can only take place after the briefing is completed."
"According to my observation just now, the number of soldiers brought by each envoy is around twenty."
"Why don't we select ten people each, divide them into attacking and defending groups, and have a simulated battlefield competition?"
"We just need soldiers to explore the mountain behind our eastern outskirts. Why don't we take that mountain as the standard? Whoever occupies the mountain will be the winner."
Qi Yuanlong, who was not tired of watching the fun, immediately started clapping, "This is good."
Sang Zhen thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay."
The original intention was to investigate the military power of the Qin Dynasty, and this kind of actual combat would reveal the flaws.
Keta had no objection. Although there was a mountain there, it was just like the small hills on their grassland. It was not a difficult task for them, the people of the grassland.
"Okay, that's the arrangement. We can all go to the safety lecture together later."
When it comes to this class, everyone is still a little curious.
The next step is to sign yesterday's contract and then select ten good players.
Qin Yuanhao looked at the people selected by General Wu with satisfaction.
After comparing them, several messengers immediately saw the difference.
Keta mocked him bluntly, "Your Majesty, you are too harsh on your soldiers! You won't even give them furs?"
The Qin soldier said indifferently, "We don't need furs. I think we'll sweat if we wear another fur coat."
When the grassland warriors heard this, they all laughed, "What a boast!"
"The people of Daqin are just too concerned about their reputation. Let's not bother with them."
If these people knew how warm our clothes were, wouldn’t their faces hurt?
[They are taking advantage of us by selling down jackets to them.]
