Chapter 3: The Great Qin

Three days later.

Great Qin, Xianyang, inside the Qilin Hall.

It was bustling with noise.

Made Ying Zheng was discussing the Xiongnu matter with his civil and military officials.

"Your Majesty, Young Master Mo has led the army north!"

"News has arrived that the traces of the Xiongnu army have already been discovered..."

"Since the Young Master has already discovered the Xiongnu's traces, the Xiongnu will surely die!"

"This subject predicts that within five months, the Young Master will surely thoroughly annihilate the Xiongnu!"

"..."

The civil and military officials in the Qilin Hall were discussing it heatedly, and when mentioning Ying Mo, many of them were filled with admiration.

They were all full of confidence in his ability to eliminate the Xiongnu.

Made Ying Zheng, on the dragon throne, listened to the words of the civil and military officials.

In those deep eyes, a rare glimmer of affection and gratification appeared.

This kind of light only appeared in Made Ying Zheng's eyes when mentioning the eldest imperial son, Young Master Mo.

Suddenly,

"Report!"

"An urgent 800-li report from the border!"

Outside the great hall, a hoarse, shrill cry came!

Upon hearing this voice, the civil and military officials in the hall immediately changed their expressions, each with a different look!

"Boom!!!"

In an instant,

The great hall became noisy!

"This must be a report of victory, right?!"

"Could it be that Young Master Mo has already severely damaged the Xiongnu army?!"

"Highly likely!!!"

"..."

Many civil and military officials in the hall immediately showed excited expressions, whispering in surprise, and turned their heads to look outside the hall.

Made Ying Zheng, on the dragon throne, saw a flash of light in his eyes, a faint, imperceptible smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. Listening to the officials' discussion, he also assumed that good news had come from the border.

Therefore,

He spoke slowly: "Proclaim!"

Clatter!

A messenger with a pale face, disordered breathing, and a terrified expression stumbled into the hall.

Upon entering the hall, the messenger fell to his knees with a thud!

He said in a terrified, trembling voice: "Report to Your Majesty, an urgent report from the border: three days ago at midnight, Young Master Mo led 30,000 Annan troops deep into Xiongnu territory, encountered an ambush by more than 300,000 elite Xiongnu troops, the entire army was annihilated, and Young Master Mo... sacrificed himself for the country!"

Boom!!!!

As soon as these words were spoken,

In an instant,

The great hall fell into a deathly silence,

The expressions on the faces of all the civil and military officials suddenly froze,

Deep shock emerged in their eyes, and they felt as if terrifying thunder was roaring in their minds; they were all stunned!!

Young Master Mo...

Killed in action and sacrificed for the country!!!

Swish!!!

Made Ying Zheng's pupils shrank instantly,

Turning into thin lines like needle points. His facial expression changed violently, and his entire body tensed up!

Boom!!!

A terrifying aura,

Instantly erupted from Made Ying Zheng's body,

In an instant, the entire Qilin Hall was permeated with a terrifying, cold pressure!

Made Ying Zheng stared fixedly at the messenger, his eyes turning bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth, saying word by word: "You say... Young Master Mo died in battle and sacrificed himself for the country?!"

Made Ying Zheng's words were as cold as frost, and the terrifying pressure instantly brought everyone back from their shock.

Swish, swish, swish—

The gazes of all the civil and military officials fell on the messenger at the same time!

Deep shock flickered in the eyes of the civil and military officials!

This news...

Was simply too great a shock for them!!!

The messenger, being watched by Made Ying Zheng's gaze, felt as if a giant mountain was pressing down on him, making him almost unable to breathe. His body trembled like chaff, but knowing the gravity of the situation, he dared not conceal anything or speak nonsense, and replied tremblingly: "Yes, Your Majesty, Young Master Mo was ambushed by the Xiongnu army and has already died in battle. The news was sent by General Meng Tian..."

"Xiongnu!!!"

Hearing the definitive news, Made Ying Zheng stood up abruptly from the dragon throne, his eyes as red as charcoal, and he roared fiercely: "Li Xin! Wang Ben! Watching Zhang Han..."

"This subject is here!!!"

Li Xin, Wang Ben, and Watching Zhang Han, hearing Made Ying Zheng's furious roar, hurriedly responded in unison!

"Mobilize the troops!!!"

Made Ying Zheng's eyes were filled with killing intent as he roared: "The three of you, each lead 150,000 Great Qin elites north!"

"I want to annihilate the Xiongnu!"

"They killed my Qilin son, I will fight the Xiongnu to the death!!!"

Made Ying Zheng's furious roar echoed in the great hall, and all the civil and military officials were terrified, their hearts turning cold. Regarding this impromptu order from Made Ying Zheng, no one dared to stand up and say a word of opposition!

Everyone knew that Young Master Mo was the existence Made Ying Zheng loved most, valued most, and regarded as the strongest successor! **Chapter 5**
