Chapter 737 Changes
"This……"

Huang Ming's heart was pounding and he was speechless for a long time.

Although he knew before returning to Beijing that he would most likely be promoted on this trip, Ren Ning's words still made him excited.

At Huang Ming's age, whether he goes to the Central Army Corps or the North Customs, it can be said that he can reach the sky in one step.

Ha ha.

Ren Ning smiled and motioned for him to relax.

"Since you find it difficult to decide, I will make the decision for you."

"Go to Beihai Pass and work with Lord Xia. During the Dingxi counterattack, you two were able to share life and death together."

Xia Bangwei?
As soon as Huang Ming heard it, he knew that Ren Ning had considered it carefully for him, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Speaking of Xia Bangwei, he was once the lieutenant of Dingxi County and an absolutely iron-blooded general.

Huang Ming is a person who cannot tolerate any grain of sand in his eyes.

As the saying goes, a thousand cups of wine are not enough when you meet a good friend, but a single word is too much when you are not on speaking terms with each other. The two have similar personalities and will get along well in the future.

As for the place of employment.

Although the north is bitterly cold, the Central Legion is too close to Xingji City and the personnel structure within the legion is complex.

And he was born in the Mansion of the Duke of Zhenguo, and even though he is now independent, he still bears the mark of the Mansion of the Duke of Zhenguo.

Once you enter the Central Army Corps, it is easy to be squeezed everywhere. It is better to be free in the far northern frontier.

In addition, Huang Ming's first wife came from a prominent family in Jinghu County in the north. After he went to Beihai Pass, he had some say in the local community and could easily move around.

"Thank you, Your Majesty. I will do my best to fulfill your orders and protect the northern border for Your Majesty and the Empire."

"congratulations."

There wasn't much wine, and a bunch of people came over with barbecue to congratulate.

"Congratulations." Huang Ming smiled happily and clinked skewers with them to celebrate.

Ren Ning ignored this and turned to look at the barbecue grill not far to the right.

There, a young general with a tan all over his body was grilling meat and enjoying it with relish.

"Ping An! Why are you hiding so far away?"

"Here they come!" Lu Ping'an was stunned, and quickly grabbed the freshly roasted meat and trotted over.

"The meat is grilled well." Ren Ning smiled, "Can you give me a taste?"

Lu Ping'an subconsciously glanced at Little Li beside Ren Ning, and seeing that the young eunuch had no intention of coming forward to test the poison, he chuckled and handed the most golden roasted meat in his hand to Ren Ning.

"Your Majesty, you know that my cooking skills are always sloppy, and my roasted food is far less delicious than Lei Er's. But if you like it, here you go!"

Ren Ning naturally didn't mind.

The two men once crossed the sea together to deliver weapons and military supplies to the Baekje Peninsula, and later fought a long war on the east coast of Baekje.

You are very familiar with and understand each other's temperament, so there is no need to be polite.

He took the skewer of meat that was still steaming with fragrant oil, blew on it a few times, and then tore it off and started chewing it.

Uh-huh.

"Not bad, much better than what I bake."

Hey.

Lu Ping'an laughed so hard that his mouth almost burst into tears.

"If your majesty likes it, I will bake it for you."

"There's no rush yet."

Ren Ning called out to him, and then took two things from Xiao Lizi next to him.

Everyone looked closely and were stunned.

It turned out to be an egg-sized bead and an exquisite hairpin used by women.

The beads are shining and it is obvious that they are rare treasures, but what the hell is a hairpin?

cough.

Ren Ning coughed lightly and looked around at everyone.

"Speaking of all the brothers here, it seems that you are the only one who has not yet married, right?"

How can it be?

Lu Ping'an subconsciously glanced at Xiao Lizi, which made the veins on the young eunuch's forehead throb.

"Your Majesty, I have already been engaged a while ago, and the wedding will be at the end of the year."

"I know about this." Ren Ning smiled and nodded, "The girl is the eldest daughter of General Zhong Lifu of the East Sea Fortress, right?"

"Your Majesty," Lu Ping'an was stunned, "I didn't expect that such a trivial matter of mine..."

As he was speaking, he came to his senses and coughed twice.

"Your Majesty is indeed very discerning and can see through everything. I am terrified."

Ren Ning didn't care, but smiled and pointed at the generals present.

"Ping An, you are a rare young talent in the East China Sea Barrier. In my heart, the marriage and childbearing of your group are important matters related to the future of each legion and even the empire." Lu Ping An was grateful but also a little stunned, "Your Majesty, you are too kind..."

Ren Ning shook his head and interrupted him directly.

"Look at everyone. All of you brothers either already have children or will have children soon. Only you are still unmarried."

"In addition to being concerned about the future successor to the East Sea Barrier, I am also worried about whether your son will be bullied by their son in the future."

Haha.

Lei Er over there laughed like thunder.

He rubbed his hands.

"Speaking of sons. My kid will be out soon. I will definitely train him well then. In a few years, he will beat your son to the ground."

cut.

A lot of people were dissatisfied.

"What a joke, who is afraid of who? Lei Er, don't let your son go home and cry when he loses the fight."

"Hehe. My kid is three years old now, and he can ride a horse very well. Lei Er, are you sure your son wants to fight him?"

"Oh, what a coincidence! My son is also three years old. I'll let the two younger ones practice with him later."

"Just practice, who's afraid of who?"

……

After such a good time playing around, Lu Ping'an frowned and even felt worried about his future son.

Finally, he managed to say, "What is my son afraid of? It's just that you are all on land, if you have the guts, come to the sea and try."

Everyone was speechless.

This is a problem.

Yu Ziping of the Yanhui Corps laughed, "It's not like we don't have people on the sea."

He looked around and sighed after a while.

"It's a pity that Prince Xiao, He Bai, Yu Haojiang and Wan Shilei are not here."

……

Ren Ning did not stop it, but just watched it all with a smile.

When the noise died down, he handed over the beads in his hand.

"The national treasury is empty, and my own treasury has no treasures. You spend all day wandering around the sea, so this water-repellent bead will be my wedding gift to you."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Lu Ping'an was overjoyed and quickly took it with both hands respectfully. "I will keep it well."

Ren Ning nodded and picked up the jade hairpin again.

"As for this jade hairpin, although it is simple in shape, it is the Queen's favorite. She specially gave it to Miss Zhong, hoping that you two will live happily together and have a baby soon."

Lu Ping'an was excited and quickly turned around and saluted in the direction of Changchun Palace.

"I thank the Queen on behalf of Miss Zhong."

"As for your position, I believe General Xiao will consider it carefully."

Ren Ning had seen all of Lu Ping'an's military achievements over the years, but he was not going to interfere with the promotion and demotion within the major legions.

Hey.

Lu Ping'an didn't care.

"Your Majesty, I don't care about any position or title, as long as I can continue to go to sea and fight in the future."

Ren Ning raised his head and looked deeply towards the south.

"I promise you that your wish will come true soon. Go back and train your troops well."

Everyone was delighted, and Lu Ping'an was so excited that he bowed deeply and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."

Ren Ning chatted with Chen Xiulan, Yu Ziping and other people who escorted prisoners back to Beijing, and finally looked at his former subordinate, Liang Rushi.

"Lao Liang, you've been eating all the time," he shook his head, "Aren't you full yet?"

Hey.

Liang Rushi quickly put down the skewers in her hand and trotted over.

"Your Majesty, I am almost full."

He smiled and said, "Back in the military camp, you always taught us that food is the most important thing in life, and the most important thing in the world is to fill your stomach."

Ren Ning didn't respond, but looked up and handed over a skewer of barbecue.

"According to the time, the legion will be moving soon, right?"

Liang Rushi stood at attention subconsciously.

"Your Majesty, the various armies, including Xingluo, began to be relocated in August of the 31st year of Changxing. Now it is the first year of Taixi, which is more than two years. According to the imperial practice, the various armies should be relocated in August next year."

"Imperial custom?" Ren Ning smiled slightly, "It's just that I have other ideas."

He looked at all the young generals present, and only continued speaking when he saw that everyone was holding their breath and listening attentively.

"From now on, I intend to change the rotation of each legion from three years to five years. What do you think?"
