"The Emperor has arrived——"
Afterwards, all the officials knelt on the ground and saluted, shouting "Long live the emperor".
The Qin Emperor, who was over fifty years old, was seen sitting majestically in a bright yellow dragon robe.
Although time has left traces on his face, one can still vaguely tell from his features and eyes that he is a decisive and ruthless emperor.
He slowly swept his eyes across the crowd, finally landing on Pei Yuan, and spoke slowly.
"Today, I have something to announce."
His voice was steady and unquestionable: "The emperor's eldest grandson Qin Yuan is both talented and virtuous. I have decided to let him join the Ministry of War, take charge of the Changning Army, and participate in military affairs."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole court was in an uproar!
The Changning Army was the most elite army of the Qin Dynasty, consisting of 50,000 people. It was once led by the Qin Emperor himself and had won countless battles.
"Father, please think twice!" The second prince Qin Xuan was the first to step out and said hurriedly, "Father, the Ministry of War is a national treasure. My nephew has just returned to the court and I am afraid he will not be able to take on the responsibility!"
The third prince Qin Chuan also followed suit: "Yes, father, although the nephew is intelligent, he has not been in the court for many years. He is not familiar with the military affairs of our Qin Dynasty. Why not let him go to the Ministry of Rites to familiarize himself with government affairs first?"
As everyone knows, the Ministry of Rites is a sinecure. Qin Chuan's words clearly indicate an attempt to sideline Pei Yuan.
The King of Chu glanced at the two brothers coldly, and said in a stern tone, "Do you have any objection to my order?"
Qin Xuan hesitated for a moment, but still did not give up: "Father, I am just worried that my nephew is inexperienced. If he rashly joins the Ministry of War, he may not be able to convince the people..."
The Emperor of Qin sneered and looked at him sharply: "When you joined the Ministry of War, you couldn't even understand the border map. Did I ever tell you that you were hard to convince?"
Qin Xuan's face turned red instantly and he was speechless.
Emperor Qin glanced at Qin Chuan again, and said in a sarcastic tone: "As for you, you spent three months in the Ministry of War and couldn't even write a military report properly. Now you have the nerve to question others?"
Qin Chuan's face turned pale and blue when his weakness was exposed in public. He could only lower his head in silence.
There was a sudden silence in the court, and all the ministers were silent as well. No one dared to offend the emperor at this time.
The Emperor of Qin then withdrew his gaze and said calmly: "I have made up my mind on this matter. There is no need to discuss it further."
He looked at Pei Yuan, no, he should be called Qin Yuan now, and said in a slightly slower tone: "A Yuan, the affairs of the Ministry of War are complicated. If you don't understand something, you can ask me directly."
——This is a clear sign of support! Favoritism!
