late at night.
The Palace of the Lord, the Imperial Study Room.
Xinjun Huang Gan is reviewing the files, and his wife Li Peiwen comes in with a servant with a midnight snack.
Huang Qian frowned slightly, and closed the file easily: “Didn’t I say, don’t you want to come in while I’m working?”
Li Peiwen smiled and said, “Knowing that you are very busy and don’t like being disturbed by me.”
“But now it’s 12 o’clock in the evening, no matter how busy you are, you have to have some supper first.”
“I’m hungry, how can I work without strength?”
Huang Gan smiled bitterly when he heard the words: “If you don’t say I don’t feel hungry, when you say I feel hungry.”
Li Peiwen smiled and said, “You are too absorbed in your work.”
With that, she asked the servant to put down the supper.
The supper is white porridge and vegetables, a small plate of peanuts, and a small plate of fermented bean curd.
Huang Gan was born at the grassroots level. After he became the head of the country, he focused on economic and political affairs and delegated the power of defense and military to Chen Ning.
In recent years, the economic development has reached a bottleneck period, and the global economy has begun to stagnate.
Therefore, Huang Qian personally took the lead in advocating a clean office.
His diet is basically very simple, and supper is just the most common porridge and vegetables.
Li Peiwen ordered his servant to retreat, and he personally filled Huang Gan with a bowl of gruel and served his husband to eat supper.
Huang Gan said with a smile: “The white porridge and vegetables all seem to have appetite, won’t you eat some together?”
Li Peiwen smiled and said, “I’m not hungry!”
Huang Gan smiled: “Then I’ll eat it myself.”
While eating supper, Huang Gan chatted with his wife about the homework, enjoying this rare and warm moment.
but!
Suddenly a guard came in and respectfully reported: “The Lord, the minister of the cabinet, Xiang Cheng, is asking for a meeting outside.”
Xiang Lao!
Huang Qian and Li Peiwen were a little surprised.
It’s late at night, what is the urgent matter of Xiang Lao, insisting to see the lord at this time?
Huang Qian quickly remembered that this afternoon, I heard that Chen Ning and Xiang’s family had a clash at the Jiuzhongtian Club. The two sides were able to fight, but it was said that the Xiang family suffered in the end.
Is it possible that Xiang Lao came for this matter?
Huang Qian frowned slightly, and immediately recovered his calmness, before faintly instructing: “Please come in.”
“Yes, Lord.”
Soon, Xiang Cheng walked in under the guidance of the guards of the Lord’s Mansion.
“Subordinate Xiangcheng, I have seen the country’s lord.”
“Xiang Lao exempts the gift and gives a seat.”
A guard brought a chair and asked Xiang Cheng to sit down.
Xiang Cheng only noticed that the lord was eating supper.
Huang Gan smiled and said, “I’m eating midnight snack, does Xiang Lao want to be together?”
Li Peiwen immediately said, “I will serve Xiang Lao a bowl of porridge.”
Xiang Cheng quickly refused: “Thank you, the country lord, and the country lord’s wife, but no need. The old minister has something to discuss with the country lord tonight, not for supper.”
Huang Gan frowned slightly.
Li Peiwen immediately said: “Then I will withdraw first, you guys talk.”
Huang Qian slowly sipped the porridge, and asked faintly: “Lao Xiang came to see me late at night, I don’t know why?”
Xiang Cheng said in a deep voice: “The old minister came to see the Lord for one thing, and that is to ask the Lord to agree to the Cabinet’s request to expel Chen Ning’s military rank.”
Hearing the words, Huang Gan immediately narrowed his eyes, and immediately returned to the original state.
He calmly said: “Why is this?”
“Before you requested the removal of Chen Ning’s post of commander-in-chief of the Northern Army, I have agreed with you.”
“Now why do you want to expel Chen Ning’s military rank as well?”
“Lao Xiang, who are all people in the system, sometimes leave a way for others to stay alive, but also leave a way for himself.”
Huang Gan’s words are actually quite meaningful.
Because the Xiang family didn’t even know that Chen Ning was now the chief commander of the military.
If the Xiang family is willing to let Chen Ning go and not trouble Chen Ning, then the Xiang family letting Chen Ning go is to let them go.
If the Xiang family continues to trouble Chen Ning in this way, in an attempt to kill Chen Ning, then it must be the Xiang family himself that will eventually be unlucky.
This is why Huang Gan said, “Sometimes to leave a gourd to others is to leave a way for myself.”
It’s a pity that Xiang Cheng didn’t know that there was something in Huang Gan’s words.
And Huang Gan’s words stopped in Xiang Cheng’s ears, he was partial to Chen Ning at all!
He was very dissatisfied and raised his volume slightly: “The Lord, it’s not that I didn’t give Chen Ning a way out, but Chen Ning was looking for death.
“My children all died because of him, and my ex-wife’s family was forced to retreat completely by him, and the family was in decline.”
“The most hateful thing is that my brother Xiang Xin, who has been away from home for more than 20 years, was killed by Chen Ning just after returning home this time.”
“The old minister urged the lord not to cover Chen Ning, remove Chen Ning’s military rank, and hand it over to the old minister for serious disposal.”
Huang Qian groaned slightly and smiled on his face.
He smiled and said: “Lao Xiang, you are the minister of the Cabinet of the Three Dynasties. You are now the chief assistant of the cabinet. You have a high moral character, and you have many deceased officials all over the country. Ordinarily, I can’t help but give your face, but…”
Xiang Cheng frowned: “But what?”
Huang Gan smiled and said, “But you probably forgot. I only take care of economic and political affairs, not military affairs.”
“Expulsion of the rank is a matter of the military.”
“So if you want to expel the rank, you have to go to the chief governor.”
“If the general governor agrees to expel Chen Ning’s rank, then I naturally agree.”
Huang Qian was smiling in his heart: Chen Ning is the chief governor, how could Chen Ning agree to expel his military rank?
Xiangcheng was astonished!
He only remembered that the country’s master does not care about military affairs.
He gritted his teeth: “Although you don’t care about the military, the lord of the country, you are still the lord of a country. You just need to speak up, who dares to disagree?”
“The old minister dares to ask you to expel Chen Ning from the rank of the lord.”
Huang Gan said slyly: “Let’s do it, I will revise a book and send someone to the Metropolitan Government.”
“If you disagree, let the general governor decide.”
“After all, he is now the highest military officer. I can’t get past him and directly intervene in his work.”
“In case I am unhappy with the chief governor, that would be bad, do you think Xiang Lao?”
Xiang Cheng heard Huang Gan say that, he was in trouble, and he could only agree.
However, he pleaded again: “The Lord, the old minister has one more request.”
Huang Gan said: “Say.”
Xiang Chengdao: “My Xiang family and Chen Ning share hatred. I implore you not to interfere in my grievances with Chen Ning, and let my Xiang family and Chen Ning decide on their own.”
Huang Gan said: “You must be the result of life and death before you are willing to give up?”
Xiang Chengdao: “Please forgive me, please don’t help.”
Huang Gan said faintly: “You want to fight, I can’t stop it, but if you fight to affect the pattern of the ruling and opposition, I will not agree.”
“If you insist on fighting you to death, then I will give you one month.”
“Within one month, how do you fight and kill, I will open one eye and close the other.”
“After a month, I want the world to restore peace.”
Xiang Cheng’s eyes flashed with a sneer: “One month is enough. I won’t use it for a month, and Chen Ning will be wiped out.”
After speaking, he said goodbye and left.
This time, although there is no military rank that will allow the lord to expel Chen Ning directly, at least the lord agrees to not help each other.
Xiang Cheng felt that with his current status, with his current strength, as long as there is no leader to help Chen Ning, then he will destroy Chen Ning in a matter of minutes.
After Xiang Cheng left.
Li Peiwen appeared again.
Li Peiwen whispered: “Is Xiang Lao going to have a decisive battle with Chen Ning?”
Huang Gan nodded: “Yeah, this old man has been blinded by hatred, and he has to kill Chen Ning.”
Li Peiwen said worriedly: “When the struggle between the two of them will end?”
Huang Gan said faintly: “Almost!”
“After a month, there will be peace in the world.”
After he finished speaking, he called in his confidantes and told him: “Go to the Metropolitan Governor’s Mansion and tell the Metropolitan Governor that internal problems should be solved internally. Take care not to cause too much external influence. After a month, I will restore peace to the world, and he will follow the instructions. Old conflicts must be resolved within one month.”
“Yes, Lord.”
