He then said solemnly, "I intend to form a special team, and I will personally be in charge of the training. Would you be willing to participate?"
Upon hearing this, Qianchao and the others were taken aback at first, then a look of surprise and determination flashed in their eyes.
Without the slightest hesitation, they immediately knelt down in unison and said in unison, "Your Majesty, we are willing!"
The voice was clear and resonant, echoing in the space for a long time, filled with an unwavering determination.
Qin Qianlu stared at them, her expression growing increasingly serious and cold, and slowly said, "You need to know."
This training was by no means easy; its hardship was beyond imagination, and it could even be life-threatening.
Furthermore, rigorous assessments will be conducted regularly during the training process, and those who fail to meet the established standards will be eliminated.
Even so, are you still willing?
"Yes!" The answer from the crowd was firm and resolute, without the slightest hesitation or retreat.
Seeing this, Qin Qianluo smiled with relief and gently raised her hand, signaling everyone to stand up.
He then said in a gentle tone, "You should all go back to your original resting rooms first. For the next period of time, everyone's training and daily life will be conducted in this space."
Qianchao and the others nodded obediently in agreement, and returned to their previous rooms with excitement and trepidation.
They sat together, their eyes sparkling with excitement, a vague premonition in their hearts.
If they can grit their teeth and persevere through this training, they will surely undergo a tremendous transformation.
Meanwhile, the military generals who had been trying to spy on King Jinrui Zhao's training were completely dumbfounded.
They already knew that the dozen or so women that Prince Jinrui Zhao had brought back had returned to the Prime Minister's residence, so they were certain that the training had already quietly begun.
So they all eagerly sent their men to secretly spy on the situation.
However, when the people they sent out returned, they brought back news that left them speechless—the people that King Jinrui Zhao had brought back were gone!
This sudden turn of events left them extremely anxious. They knew without a doubt that King Jinrui Zhao must have taken his men into the space for training.
They were so anxious that blisters appeared on their lips, but they were at a loss for what to do.
They secretly groaned inwardly, thinking they couldn't possibly send a group of burly generals to hug King Jinrui Zhao and beg for mercy.
Putting aside the question of whether doing so would reveal one's true feelings, let's just imagine it.
The scene of a dozen or so tall and burly military officers surrounding a delicate little girl crying and making a fuss seemed utterly absurd.
I'm afraid that before Prime Minister Qin can even take action against them, the Emperor will be furious and punish them severely once he finds out.
"Never mind," they thought to themselves. "Aren't there still the Emperor's secret guards who can occasionally send back some messages?"
At that point, we'll have no choice but to shamelessly pester the Emperor to see if we can glean even the slightest bit of useful information from him.
At this moment, the emperor, whom the military generals had placed their hopes on and regarded as their last hope to turn the tide, was stunned and stood there blankly, his face full of confusion.
He did receive the message from the secret guard as expected; however, the contents of that intelligence were like a bucket of ice-cold water.
It ruthlessly extinguished the flame of hope in his heart. All the information could be summarized in just four short but heavy words: Unreplicable.
The weapons and equipment described on the paper are all exquisite and ingenious, far surpassing the current craftsmanship and manufacturing capabilities of Tianxuan Kingdom.
Furthermore, their rigorous and interconnected training methods were also unheard of.
The emperor's hands trembled slightly as he examined the letter in his hands repeatedly, his gaze like that of someone searching for a glimmer of light in the darkness.
Try to extract even the slightest bit of useful information or even a tentative idea from these dense texts.
But the more he looked, the heavier his heart became, and in the end, he still gained nothing.
He had never even heard of some of the items mentioned, such as "night vision goggles," let alone knew what they were or how they were made.
Although, theoretically speaking, that training method might be somewhat emulated given time and the right conditions.
But one crucial prerequisite was that gunpowder, such a wondrous substance, had to be developed first.
The text clearly states that gunpowder will be used to create a powerful device called a "landmine" as a key tool to aid training.
At present, let alone landmines, not even a trace of gunpowder has been seen. Apart from this, there are no other methods that can be considered and put into practice.
The emperor sighed deeply, filled with resentment, and slowly put down the letter in his hand. The action seemed to represent not just a piece of paper, but all his expectations and struggles.
He closed his eyes tightly, constantly reassuring himself: It's alright, having that little girl is the same as having her. Although there are fewer of them, it's better than nothing. That's all.
Thinking this, he forced himself to cheer up and ordered Eunuch Liu, who was waiting nearby, to carefully put away the letter and place it in a hidden corner of the Imperial Study.
He stood up and paced back and forth in the empty hall, an irrepressible impulse welling up in his heart.
He thought, why not send a team of elite soldiers to the little girl's place and let them learn from her?
But the moment that thought popped into his head, it was shattered by the harsh reality.
According to the regulations for kings of different surnames and the rules passed down from their ancestors, it was impossible to place any more people in, otherwise it would definitely arouse the little girl's suspicion, which would be a loss.
