The boy next to him looked at Zhao Fu with admiration as he said excitedly, "Sir! Did you come from the Qin Empire's capital, Xianyang? I heard that it's quite prosperous and has everything. That's right, do you know what His Majesty looks like? "
Zhao Fu smiled as he replied, "Xianyang is quite prosperous and lively, but His Majesty looks quite ordinary."
The boy looked quite disbelieving and said with a trace of anger, "Sir, you can't say that. Our Majesty is the greatest Majesty in the world. Not only is he incredibly handsome, but his aura is also mighty and domineering. No one is as noble as him. "
Zhao Fu smiled as he said, "Since you know, why are you asking me?"
The boy said embarrassedly, "I've heard about this from others, and I've never seen His Majesty. I believe that His Majesty is even more mighty and domineering than the legends say."
Seeing that his grandson and Zhao Fu were chatting, the Village Chief said, "Sir, I'm very curious. The boy looked at his grandson and Zhao Fu with a pair of innocent eyes and said, "Sir, can you please take a look at my grandson's talent and see if he has the potential to become a General in the Qin Empire?"
The boy looked at Zhao Fu with a pair of innocent eyes and said, "I'll have to trouble you, sir! I want to be like my father and join the Qin Empire's army and serve the Qin Empire. I want to work hard to become a General and give my grandparents and mother a good life. "
Zhao Fu felt quite surprised and smiled as he asked, "Is your father in the army? Have you become a general yet? "
Hearing this, the boy's eyes became moist, and the Village Chief sighed, seeming to have aged.
Zhao Fu understood something. Qin had opened up many battlefields, facing the Heaven Awaken World, Outer World, Underworld, and Alchemy World. It was impossible for there to be no sacrifices, and every victory or defeat would cost the lives of many soldiers and Generals.
Thinking about that, Zhao Fu's heart sank. Who knew how many people's families would be torn apart by this battle? Families would be torn apart, and people would have to send off their children.
However, could war be avoided? Even if Great Qin did not attack others, others would attack Great Qin. War was unavoidable, and even submitting was useless. After all, there would be other factions attacking the factions that you submitted to. War was unavoidable.
When the war began, there would definitely be deaths. Families would be destroyed, wives and children would be separated, families would be separated, people would be destitute, people would not be able to fill their stomachs, and things like old people sending off their children would happen. It was unavoidable.
If they wanted to avoid war forever, there was only one way, and that was to achieve unification, just like how Qin unified the six states in the past.
Thinking about that, Zhao Fu became more resolute and smiled as he patted the boy's head. He sent a trace of power into the boy's body and found that the boy's talent was quite good.
He smiled and said, "Your aptitude is not bad, and you might become a commander in the future. However, your father has already died in battle. Do you still want to be like him? You might even die on the battlefield. "
"According to Qin's laws, the Imperial Court gives you preferential treatment. You don't have to join the army, and you can live a peaceful life without fighting and being in danger. If you die, what will happen to your mother and grandparents?"
The Village Head's eyes flickered with tears, and his voice was a bit hoarse as he said, "Young Master, you're right. You're right. I've been trying to persuade my grandson, but he insists on being like his father. "
"I also know that Great Qin's peace and prosperity, where we don't have to worry about food and clothing, and our happy and comfortable lives were bought with the lives of countless soldiers. I support my grandson's decision to join Great Qin's army."
"I experienced that chaotic and dark age. At that time, this small village belonged to a small faction called the Eastern State.
"At that time, factions constantly fought against each other, and the war never stopped. Wails could be heard everywhere, and blood dyed the earth red. Ordinary people had no food to fill their stomachs, were homeless, and were even slaughtered.
"It was Qin Empire that unified and ended that chaotic and dark age. That's why we have such a life now. If we don't want this comfortable life to be destroyed, we have to protect it."
The little boy's eyes were firm as he said seriously, "I also want to protect Qin Empire like my father did. I will realize my father's unrealistic dream for him."
Zhao Fu looked at the grandfather and grandson seriously, and he felt a huge responsibility and pressure in his heart. They were his people, and they trusted and supported him so much. How could he let them down?
By now, Zhao Fu deeply understood that even though he was a supreme existence in Great Qin and countless people looked up to him, no one dared to go against his orders, and he enjoyed the greatest power, he was still a Great Qin Lord.
At the same time, he bore the hopes of all the people in Qin Empire. He was responsible for their safety, life, and future, because he was the Emperor of Qin Empire, Qin's Majesty.
Zhao Fu's gaze became resolute, and he understood his responsibilities. Since he was in this position, he had to bear the weight of the Emperor.
A formless Emperor's aura spread out, causing the grandfather and grandson's hearts to tremble. They felt as if they wanted to kneel and worship the person in front of them. This was instinctively the highest form of respect for a King.
Zhao Fu gave a trace of a smile and gave off a natural Emperor's aura, seeming incredibly close and distant as he said, "In actuality, talent isn't that important because Great Qin has the Talent Orb. As long as you're willing to work hard, you'll definitely be able to achieve your dreams. I can promise you that."
"There's also this command medallion. Take it and you'll be able to go to the Rising Qin Academy to study. You don't have to worry about school fees and living expenses."
The Village Chief looked at Zhao Fu in shock. Even though he didn't know much, he knew that the Rising Qin Academy was the number one academy in Qin, and only the most talented people could go there to study. Ordinary nobles would not be able to enter no matter how hard they fought.
Now, as long as one took this person's command medallion, they would be able to enter the Rising Qin Academy without any fees. It seemed that this person's status in Xianyang City was quite extraordinary.
Looking at the token, it was a Black Gold Dragon Token, which meant that it was made of black gold. A ferocious and domineering black dragon was carved on it. Needless to say, just this token alone was worth a lot of money.
The Village Chief quickly came to his senses and patted the boy's head as he said, "Hurry! Hurry and pay your respects to Sir and thank this Sir. "
The boy covered his head, feeling a bit angry. However, looking at his grandfather, he felt that this command medallion was quite valuable, so he obediently knelt and kowtowed as he said, "Thank you, Sir, for your reward!"
Zhao Fu lightly laughed as he said, "Get up! I hope you'll work hard in the future and don't let me down. "
