"Do any of you officials have a candidate in mind?"

Upon hearing Qin Yanling's words, the ministers in the court naturally looked at each other in bewilderment. For them, they were all recommended by someone and were keeping in mind the Minister of War's instructions.

“Your Majesty, I do recall that the official Shangguan has one at home. This one is relatively strong, and more importantly, it is knowledgeable and has considerable fighting ability.”

Qin Yanling never expected that these officials would actually praise Shangguan Mufeng here, and Shangguan Nantian was also shocked at that moment, looking at the officials in front of him in disbelief.

These officials had maintained a superficial relationship with Shangguan Nantian for the past few days, yet now they were pushing his son to become a military officer.

However, Shangguan Nantian did not want his son to become a military general; he only hoped that his son could live an ordinary life.

Shangguan Nantian took the initiative to step forward and told Qin Yanling.

"Your Majesty, I believe my son is not capable of serving as a military general. I urge Your Majesty to grant him this position..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qin Yanling had already ordered someone to invite Shangguan Mufeng into the court. Shangguan Mufeng was practicing swordsmanship at home when someone from the court arrived.

Shangguan Mufeng was somewhat surprised at that moment, wondering why the people from the imperial court had come here.

"Young Master Shangguan, His Majesty requests your presence at the court."

Shangguan Mufeng wondered if this was serious. He had only been back for less than three days, and Qin Yanling wanted to invite him to the court. Could it be that something had happened to his father?

For some reason, he was filled with worry at that moment, and eventually followed the Imperial Guard into the palace.

It must be said that the palace is indeed quite magnificent, with red walls and bricks, but the walls are too high, and if one wanted to get out, it would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

When Shangguan Mufeng arrived at the court, he was surprised to find that the officials were giving him strange looks. Shangguan Mufeng felt something was off for a moment. He looked at them, then walked into the main hall and respectfully bowed to Qin Yanling.

"Long live your majesty."

Finally, seeing the worried look on Shangguan Nantian's face, Shangguan Mufeng knew that something serious must have happened.

However, Shangguan Mufeng remained silent, neither sad nor happy. At this moment, Qin Yanling looked Shangguan Mufeng up and down. Shangguan Mufeng was Qin Yu's male favorite before this.

To become Qin Yu's male concubine, he must have some extraordinary qualities. Looking at him now, he is indeed quite good. Although he looks slender, he actually walks with a strong gait.

After that, Qin Yanling brought Shangguan Mufeng to the training ground.

Shangguan Mufeng was unaware of Qin Yanling and the others' intentions, but ultimately had no choice but to follow them here.

Afterwards, Qin Yanling directly summoned the Protectorate Army. When this general arrived, he didn't know Qin Yanling's intentions, but he still bowed to Qin Yanling. Although military power was in Qin Yu's hands, the person in front of him was still the emperor, so he still had to give him face.

"How could Your Majesty have time to come? This humble place is rather rugged."

"I came here only to test someone. I want this person in front of me to compete with you. I wonder what General Su thinks?"

Upon hearing this, General Su immediately understood Qin Yanling's intention. It seemed that the person in front of him was someone Qin Yanling wanted to cultivate. However, he vaguely remembered this person; he seemed to be the son of Shangguan Nantian.

General Su walked up to Shangguan Mufeng and respectfully gestured for him to enter.

"I wonder if Young Master Shangguan would be willing to have a match with me now? If not, I will not force you. If you are willing, let's go to the arena over there and begin."

Shangguan Mufeng heard what this general was saying. This general seemed to be a general of the National Protection Army. More importantly, this general seemed to be in charge of military operations and battles.

More importantly, this general seemed to be following Qin Yu's orders. After all, he had heard this before. When General Su saw that Shangguan Mufeng was not leaving, he was a little suspicious and couldn't help but provoke him.

"Does Young Master Shangguan fear me?"

The word "fear" didn't even cross Shangguan Mufeng's mind. He immediately flew forward, standing opposite General Su. For some reason, General Su sensed that this young man possessed formidable inner strength.

Shangguan Mufeng took out a folding fan, and General Su asked him if he wasn't going to take a sword. Shangguan Mufeng refused.

Qin Yu naturally learned of this matter, and when he heard the news, he found it somewhat interesting. So, Qin Yu entered the palace and arrived here.

When Qin Yu arrived at this place and saw the duel between Shangguan Mufeng and General Su, he was somewhat surprised for a moment. It seemed that Qin Yanling was indeed interested in making Shangguan Mufeng a military general.

As expected, going to the Minister of War this time was indeed useful. However, Qin Yanling probably didn't know that it was Qin Yu who asked the Minister of War to have this official do it.

At this moment, General Su saw Qin Yu's arrival and naturally greeted her respectfully. Shangguan Mufeng was shocked at that instant, never expecting that the general in front of him would actually greet a woman.

More importantly, Shangguan Mufeng saw admiration in General Su's eyes. It seemed that General Su truly respected Qin Yu. Standing next to Qin Yu was Mo Yun, who was sizing up Shangguan Mufeng.

This person has quite good aptitude. If he were to become a military general, his future would be limitless. More importantly, he is also somewhat lacking in talent and knowledge, but his insightful abilities are relatively good. He can be described as having both literary and martial talents.

If such a person were to serve as an official in this court, he would certainly bring certain benefits to the court.

However, it all depends on Qin Yanling's vision. If Qin Yanling's vision is low, then it will definitely backfire. If Qin Yanling's vision is high, then it will be different.

However, Qin Yanling is Qin Yu's younger brother, and according to Mo Yun's understanding, Qin Yanling seems to be too easily swayed by the words of officials.
