After knowing the old beggar for so long, Tang Ning had already understood why he was so unpopular in Lingzhou before and was beaten every now and then.

Selling incomplete martial arts secrets, selling small yellow books, cheating children of lollipops, and consecrating the fallen women...

This kind of bitch, even the calm Lao Zheng could be aroused by him. If he hadn't been able to beat him, he would have been chopped into eight pieces long ago.

What is "not cultivating" and "disrespectful to the old" meant that such people are not as good as a top master, but they are not as good as normal people. The more they live, the more they become, the more unreasonable they will deliberately pretend to be "Mr. Merciful" in front of Xiaoxiao.

Lao Zheng probably didn't want to see the old beggar, or he might be worried that one day he would not be able to control his slashing him and would instead humiliate himself, and took the initiative to take the responsibility of the guards around Tang Ning.

November is coming soon, and Tang Ning deliberately went to the Ministry of War to report two days in advance.

The Ministry of War is equivalent to the Ministry of National Defense in later generations. It is in charge of military officers' promotions, military ranks, military equipment, military orders, etc., and does not involve military power. Even Lu Ding, the Minister of War, is a civil servant.

Even so, no civil servant can hold the position of Minister of War. The Lu family is a family of military generals. Military generals must not only be brave, but also be scheming. There is no general in the capital with a profound background. No one is a reckless man who only knows how to charge.

When Lu Ding was young, he was already a famous general of the State of Chen. He served as the General of the Sixteen Guards and now serves as the Minister of War. Lu Teng was young and could take the position of Zuo Yu Commander, and his future was unlimited. Among all the generals in the capital, the Lu family was also considered top-notch.

The Xiao family was once glorious, but now only Xiao Jue is left, which is no longer comparable to the Lu family.

He walked into the military office and explained his purpose. Zhang Gu at the door hurriedly ran in and reported.

Although the Ministry of War is also considered a civil servant, many officials in the Ministry of War, including the Minister of War, have military positions, and the arrangement of the Ministry of War is different from other officials.

When I walked into the front yard, I saw stone locks, stone poles, stone mills and other things placed in a corner of the yard.

Tang Ning glanced at him and footsteps came from his ears. The anecdote accompanied a man out of a yamen room.

The man who walked out bowed to him and said, "Mr. Tang, I've been waiting for a long time."

The man was about thirty years old, with a steady voice and powerful pace, and a unique and sharp aura that was completely different from the feeling given by officials from the Ministry of Rites and Justice of the Ministry of Revenue.

Tang Ning clasped his fists and asked, "I wonder who this lord is?"

The Zhanggu walked forward and introduced: "This is Mr. Nie."

He was greeted by Nie Qian, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of War. Before Tang Ning left Beijing and went to Chu State, Emperor Chen had promoted him to the doctor of the Ministry of Rites. This was an official position of the fifth rank. Now that he left the Ministry of Rites and served in the Ministry of War, his official rank would not be lower than that of the fifth rank.

Mr. Nie welcomed him into a certain duty room and said, "Mr. Shangshu was summoned to the palace by His Majesty, but he had already informed him a few days ago. If Lord Tang came, you will be temporarily appointed as the doctor of the Ministry of War. The Ministry of War originally had two doctors. Doctor Hu was ordered to leave the capital month ago to patrol the military camps of various states. This is Doctor Wu..."

He pointed to a person in the duty room and introduced to Tang Ning. This Wu Langzhong did not have the temperament of coming out of the military camp, and was obviously from a civil servant.

He bowed to Tang Ning, but his eyes were alert and said, "I have long admired the name of Lord Tang..."

When we first met, the Doctor Wu seemed a little afraid of him, and Tang Ning did not show too much enthusiasm, but just bowed to show his gift.

After arranging everything for him, Mr. Nie looked at him and said, "I still have some things to be busy with, so I will leave first. If you have any questions, come to me at any time."

Tang Ning heard Xiao Jue say that the Ministry of War seems to be busy with the Sixteen Guards Competition once every four years recently, and is not very leisurely. He nodded and said, "Go and Mr. Nie, go and do it."

Nie Qian walked out of the Ministry of War and saw a man standing in the yard, looking at the stone lock in the corner, trance.

From the beginning, he noticed this person. The other party had a very familiar temperament. Although he was just standing there casually at the moment, it gave people the feeling like a sharp knife...

He has only seen this temperament in the army.

What surprised him even more was that the pressure on the person opposite him was even greater than that of the General of the Sixteen Guards.

Nie Qian hesitated for a moment and asked, "I wonder which general this brother was under before?"

He could be sure that this person must have been from a military formation and had such a fierce momentum that he was most likely from a army of battles.

Lao Zheng looked back at him, shook his head and said, "You recognize the wrong person, I will kill the pig..."

Nie Qian's gaze stayed on him for a long time before shook his head, thinking that this might be his illusion. He raised his foot and was about to take a step down, but his steps suddenly stopped, looked down at the ground, slowly fell down, and walked down the steps gently...

...

On the first day of the Ministry of War, I was particularly leisurely and had nothing left to him to do. Tang Ning only went there at noon and was released in less than an hour.

After the gongs were released, Tang Ning walked out of the Ministry of War and found that he was the only one who came out.

He stood at the door and waited for a while. When Lao Zheng came back from buying meat, no one in the Ministry of War would release the yamen.

Among the four government offices he has been to, the overtime work of the Ministry of War is the most serious. It is impossible to see that Mr. Lu is kind in daily life, but he is not polite to his subordinates. He has not dared to come out of the duty room for a quarter of an hour after leaving the government office.

Lao Zheng bought a pound of pork belly and planned to go back to chop it into stuffing to make dumplings at night. Not long after Tang Ning returned home, he saw Princess Anyang walking in from outside.

"Is the princess here to find the princess?" Tang Ning looked at her and said, "The princess and Xiaoyi have gone out, and it may take a while to come back."

Zhao Man and Xiaoru and Xiaoyi have become real sisters, so even if she often runs here, no one will gossip.

"No, I'll come to find Xiao Jue." Princess Anyang looked around and said, "Isn't he here?"

Tang Ning shook his head and said, "I just came back from the yamen and didn't see him."

Princess Anyang ran into the room and searched for it in disbelief. After finding nothing, she left unwillingly.

Tang Ning stood up and said, "Come out, she's gone."

Xiao Jue crawled out of the jar at the corner of the wall, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with some depression: "I finally left..."

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "Do you owe her money?"

Xiao Jue shook his head and said, "She wants to introduce the girl to me."

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "Isn't this good? Don't you always want to marry a wife and get married?"

"You don't know." Xiao Jue waved his hand and said, "She introduced Lu Teng's sister."

Tang Ning thought for a while and asked, "Lu Teng's sister... is very ugly?"

From the appearance of Lu Teng and Lu Shangshu, we can see that the Lu family has a good genes, and there is no reason why Lu Teng's sister is not good-looking.

Xiao Jue said: "It's okay, it's pretty good."

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "Then don't you want to?"

Judging from his reaction just now, those who didn't know about it thought that Anyang County mainly introduced Lu Teng to him.

“你不知道.”萧珏挥了挥手,说道:“陆腾的亲姐姐,比你表姐还狠,她小时候经常揍我,我娶她不是自寻死路吗?”

"You can think so too." Tang Ning looked at him and said, "Didn't you dislike Lu Teng? If you marry his sister, you are his brother-in-law and you will be able to suppress him in the future."

"Forget it." Xiao Jue shook his head and said, "In order to take advantage of his "brother-in-law" and pay for my happiness for the rest of my life, I am not so stupid. Even if I die, Xiao Jue will never marry her forever, and I will never marry her Lu Ya!"

Tang Ning thought for a while and said, "I think you are quite compatible with Princess Anyang. Don't you consider her?"

"She?" Xiao Jue waved his hand without hesitation, "I have always regarded her as my sister. Will you marry your sister?"

"You are not related by blood."

"That's not possible." Xiao Jue shook his head and said, "I think she is my sister in my heart. If I marry her, I will become a beast, no, even a beast!"
