With you seated as the new emperor, your Prime Minister, Lu Buwei go in front of you and kneel on on knee, making a fist-and-palm salute, where one hand is clenched into a fist and covered by the other palm. "Your Imperial Majesty" he begins, "even as we celebrate your ascension, there are matters that requires your immediate attention. We, of course, recognize the gravity of such a decision and will not press you recklessly into a bad one. We merely suggest with all due respect that you consider the situation and well-being of the realm."
"Read it," you command.
Lu Buwei read through a list of actions that require your attention. There's some mention about appointing concubines, reorganising the government, accepting an envoy, managing a fight between martial art groups, and some other actions. It's obvious that all those decisions were collected to be dumped on your lap as the new emperor. No matter, some you can decide to handle, some you can assign to others.
