Chu Anping and other people present were patiently waiting for Chu Fan to say the key words.
In their view, if a person holds a leadership position in a department but cannot bring any benefits to himself or his family, then this person will never devote himself to this job sincerely.
Even in the female medical corps, female members of the royal family were usually able to serve as squad leaders. This was because most women in the royal family had a certain level of literacy and could read and write, while few ordinary people could read and write.
After these female members of the royal family joined the women's medical corps, they were able to use their knowledge to guide ordinary people and improve their cultural level.
However, Chu Fan did not think so far. He just thought that if a prominent woman in the royal family stood up and publicly accused the emperor, saying, "Your Majesty, you are exploiting women. What you are doing is wrong." and then triggered a resistance, wouldn't he have successfully completed the system's task?
Chu Fan said to Eunuch Li in a tone full of concern, "Observe Chu Hongzhi carefully to see if he has the aptitude to practice the Sunflower Manual. If he does have this ability, then please prepare a copy of the Sunflower Manual for him so that this poor child can also have the opportunity to practice this peerless martial art."
Chu Anping and the other royal family members present all exchanged puzzled glances, sharing their confusion. They wondered to themselves, could there be some secret manual hidden within the palace that they didn't know about?
However, they could only ponder this silently in their hearts, as His Majesty had not revealed any information to them. They knew that if they rashly asked, it would be disrespectful to His Majesty and might even arouse His Majesty's suspicion that they had ulterior motives.
Chu Anping and other members of the royal family were clearly aware of this, so they could only choose to wait patiently, hoping that Chu Fan would reveal some valuable information about the Sunflower Manual to them at some appropriate moment.
Chu Fan's proposal surprised Eunuch Li. He had never expected His Majesty to actually ask Chu Hongzhi to practice the Sunflower Manual. This Sunflower Manual was originally a martial arts manual bestowed upon eunuchs by His Majesty. He had never imagined His Majesty would allow members of the royal family to practice this martial art.
But considering Chu Hongzhi's special situation, a eunuch, Eunuch Li thought it was reasonable for Chu Hongzhi to practice the Sunflower Manual.
Chu Fan looked at everyone present and continued, "As for the issue of books that you are worried about, I will find a way to solve it. You should first set up the preliminary matters of the women's medical team, such as the station and personnel. You must provide them with basic training and make sure they obey orders. Only in this way can the strongest combat power of the women's medical team be brought into play.
Oh, and there's Goudan's mother. You must be the first to recruit her and her companions into the army. Goudan's mother can be directly appointed as a squad leader, and the other women will be selected based on their performance. Those who excel and are able to follow orders will be chosen to become squad leaders, squadron leaders, and battalion leaders."
Chu Hongzhi interrupted Chu Fan at this moment and asked, "Your Majesty, what exactly are the positions of the squad leader, squadron leader, and team leader that you mentioned?"
Chu Anping scolded Chu Hongzhi, "Chu Hongzhi, don't be so ignorant of etiquette. Don't speak carelessly while His Majesty is still speaking. His Majesty has explained everything to you clearly. Can you please not have that thing between your two ears?"
Chu Fan signaled to Chu Anping that there was no need to be angry about such things. Chu Fan also did not expect that Chu Hongzhi did not know the concept of captain.
Chu Fan patiently explained, "The position of captain is similar to that of captain, except that the women's medical unit is directly led by the Royal Government Affairs Office, so the title has changed. The squad leader corresponds to the decapitator, the squad leader corresponds to the centurion, and the battalion leader corresponds to the thousand-man captain.
This unit will not have a captain of ten thousand men. After the captain, there will be generals and other positions. From the general position onwards, the position structure will be the same as that of an ordinary army."
Chu Hongzhi and the others immediately understood what Chu Fan said. After Chu Fan reminded them of some safety matters, he let Chu Anping and the others go back to do these things.
When Eunuch Li and Chu Hongzhi came to a remote corner, Eunuch Li took out a copy of the Sunflower Manual and handed it to Chu Hongzhi.
Eunuch Li said to Chu Hongzhi sternly, "You must keep this secret book safe. No one except you can view it. Remember, remember to keep it safe, otherwise you will probably bear the wrath of the ancestors in the palace."
Seeing Eunuch Li's solemn admonition, Chu Hongzhi began to look forward to what kind of martial arts secret manual the emperor would give him. He wondered if someone so valued by Wei Zhongxian in the palace would value such a secret manual so much?
Chu Hongzhi replied, "I understand. The royal family and the palace guards are one and the same. I will regard this Sunflower Manual as a treasure and will never let outsiders peek at it."
Eunuch Li nodded and said with satisfaction, "Very good, as long as you understand. The martial arts recorded in this secret book are extraordinary. If you practice diligently, you will surely make rapid progress in martial arts. I believe that in the near future you will become a first-class warrior."
After listening to what Eunuch Li said, Chu Hongzhi felt that Eunuch Li was exaggerating too much. After all, the martial arts foundation of eunuchs had already been damaged. If it was really so easy to become a first-class warrior, he would not have lingered in brothels and given up on himself.
Seeing that Chu Hongzhi didn't believe him, Eunuch Li didn't say much and left quickly. His duty was to protect His Majesty, not to chat with Chu Hongzhi about martial arts secrets.
After returning home in the middle of the night, Chu Hongzhi locked himself in the study to check the martial arts secrets given to him by Eunuch Li.
When Chu Hongzhi saw the eight characters on the first page ("To practice this technique, one must first castrate oneself"), his heart was shaken. He finally understood why Eunuch Li had said that this Sunflower Manual was of extraordinary significance. These eight characters implied that practicing this technique would require a great price, even sacrificing one's very being.
However, he happened to be a natural eunuch, making this secret manual a perfect fit for him. His illness wouldn't be an obstacle to practicing this secret manual; it was actually a prerequisite. At that moment, Chu Hongzhi's eyes shone brightly. He, too, could become a powerful being.
