The person holding the imperial edict was a young eunuch with fair skin, likely in his early twenties. To receive such a position at this age, he must have done quite well in the palace.
Behind the young eunuch was a young official, looking dignified and impressive. His left waist was adorned with a Flying Fish Pendant, and a sword hung at his right waist, making this combination somewhat unconventional.

"Lord Pingye, General of Snow Sea Pass, Zheng Fan, receive the edict!"
"Your servant Zheng Fan, pays respects to His Majesty, ten thousand years!"
Lord Zheng knelt down,
Following him,
all the generals also knelt.
