Chapter 94: Persuading People to Do Evil
The next day, Yiqi left Xingji City and hurried to the west for eight hundred miles.

"Your Majesty," the minister of the Ministry of War in the imperial study lowered his eyebrows and bowed his head: "According to the practice of previous years, the Starfall Legion should move to Yumu County in the north in August."

He was a little dissatisfied.

Yesterday, the emperor actually bypassed the Ministry of War to reward a low-level military officer, which is really unbelievable.Today, the court ignored the opinions of many ministers, and directly issued an order to Yanfeng Fortress, asking the Starfall Legion to switch to the south in August.

Humph.

The emperor snorted coldly.

"Those small countries in the south probably forgot the pain 40 years ago when their scars healed, and they started to move around again."

"In the past two years, they have worked together to occupy my land repeatedly, killing my people and burning good fields. As a result, there is a shortage of medicinal materials and high prices. The people complain. I have tolerated them for a long time."

"It's just that the Goose Regiment stationed in the south is full of piles of wine, naan and rice bags. I just kept pressing it. After the star falls and changes defenses, I want these small flea countries to look good."

"Your Majesty can't." The Minister of the Ministry of War turned pale with shock.

"The climate in the south is hot all year round. Most of the Goose Regiment stationed in the south are soldiers from the north, and it is difficult to adapt to it for a while. In addition, the border is long, the border is high, dense forests, and the folk customs are tough. It is really hard to guard against. Occasionally, it is impossible to sneak in. something to avoid."

"But as long as we find the enemy's whereabouts, our defenders will quickly defeat them and drive them out..."

As he spoke, Minister of the Ministry of War slowly straightened his neck, and finally stopped sweating.

"Guan Yi!" The emperor behind the dragon case looked at him gloomyly.

"I can understand that I can't adapt to the new climate for the first time. Three years have passed, and you dare to say that they are still not used to it? If they really don't get used to it, I think that the Wild Goose Legion may consider canceling it and merging it into others."

"Also, you'd better tell me, what kind of fish that slipped through the net can bypass the heavily guarded Zhennan Pass for three consecutive months, and burn my entire 27 mu of medicine field bit by bit!"

Ren Ning didn't know this, and was cheerfully receiving Xiao Gang who came to visit him.

"Brother Ren, congratulations on moving to a new home." He handed over the gift with emotion, "I didn't expect that we would become neighbors separated by a wall. It's really a natural fate. Don't blame the younger brother for coming to see you when he is free."

"You are welcome at any time." Ren Ning spread his hands with a smile, "It's just that my vacation will end after a while, and I have to go back to the Legion. I guess I can't greet you."

Xiao Gang was taken aback, "When?"

"Hurry up. It's already July, and Zhongdian will have to leave Xingji City to return to the team in August at the latest. The Starfall Legion has strict discipline, and it's not easy to ask for leave. I don't know when we will meet again."

"Starfall Legion." Yearning flashed across Xiao Gang's eyes.

"Father intends to arrange for me to enter the Jinwu Guard. No matter who is in the imperial capital, it will be convenient for me to fulfill my filial piety or marry a wife and have children. Moreover, the guard is the palace city, and the situation is not dangerous. If His Majesty takes a fancy one day, maybe I can still get a job. Get a job."

Ren Ning was noncommittal, "Then what do you think?"

"I, of course I want to make contributions like Brother Ren and you while I'm young." Xiao Gang smiled wryly, "Otherwise, the title of the Xiao family will decline again in two years. Then we will really become unworthy descendants."

"As for what the Jinwu Guard is, you know well. If you want to be favored by His Majesty, the chances are about the same as falling into the sky."

Ren Ning laughed, "So you also know what other people call your Xiao family."

"We're not deaf. Of course we can hear."

"In the past, people still yelled secretly behind their backs. We can pretend that we don't know. When I went to Qin Wangfu the day before yesterday, Cheng Enbo's surname Sun yelled directly to his face. There is really no way to imitate an ostrich and bury his head in the soil to pretend not to hear. .”

Ren Ning nodded.

"You are a few months older than me, and you are an adult. You can listen to what your father says, but you must have your own ideas. You must carefully weigh the pros and cons before making a decision. Once you make a decision, don't regret it or Regret. Life is short, there is not such a long time for you to repeat."

Xiao Gang looked thoughtful.

He stood up suddenly and was about to walk out.

"What are you going to do?" Ren Ning said in amazement: "Aren't you going to stay for a housewarming meal? I happened to introduce Yingpan to you."

"That's good." Xiao Gang knew Yingpan, and sat down again in a good manner, "After dinner, I will meet Brother Ren's favorite person again. My son will also find a girl to marry and settle the major issues in life. Then I will talk to Brother Ren. Let's join the army together."

Ren Ning was speechless.

He suddenly understood why the Uncle Zhongyong's Mansion had been in decline.The ears of this family are soft.By just saying a few words, others can easily make a 180-degree turn in their thinking.

"Don't exaggerate." Ren Ning shook his head, "You don't even know a girl now, it's not that easy to get married suddenly."

No matter how the Zhongyong uncle's mansion declines, it is still the uncle's mansion. As the son of the eldest son Xiao Gang, if he wants to marry a wife, he can't just open his mouth.Three matchmakers and six engagements, eight carriages of big sedan chairs, and bright matchmaker marriages are all necessary, and it takes a year and a half to prepare for it.

Xiao Gang also reacted, and couldn't help feeling sad.

Ha ha!

Ren Ning smiled: "No matter what decision you make, your own strength is the first prerequisite. You can use this time to practice martial arts."

"To be honest, your kung fu is really bad." He complained.

Cheng Enbo's Sun Ye is bad enough, Xiao Gang's kung fu is worse than him.

"But my elder brother will be angry..."

"It's nothing." Before Xiao Gang could speak, Ren Ning had already picked up the conversation, "If he wants to be angry, let him be angry."

"If your eldest brother is a respectful brother, you go to make contributions to keep the title of the Earl's House, and the two brothers will share the glory and wealth together in the future, I have nothing to say."

"But your eldest brother is obviously not such a person."

"He is weak, and he is destined to not earn much credit in this life. If you go to join the army, it is obvious that you will make a wedding dress for him. At that time, you have put in your blood and hard work, but he will enjoy the rewards. There is no such reason in the world."

"You, Xiao Gang, are also the son of the uncle's mansion. Since he hates you to the bone, he has been suppressing you for fear that you will take the uncle's mansion away. Then you don't need to be polite, just practice kung fu well and show him the right way."

"This, this, this..." Xiao Gang was dripping with sweat.

Seniors and young are orderly, and there are differences in respect and inferiority.

I have learned such ethics since I was a child.Ren Ning's rebellious words really had a big impact on him.

After a long while, he hesitated to speak.

"However, the prince of the uncle's mansion is invited by the father, and the canonization will take effect only after being canonized by His Majesty. I am only the second son, and my mother's family background is not strong, so it is impossible for my father to invite me to be the prince. Unless..."

Ren Ning smiled lightly: "Then unless you show it to him."

"Don't forget the last time you returned to the imperial capital, the four men in black touched the boat. You don't think they blow the drug into your room to lull you to sleep, do you?"

Xiao Gang was silent, pain flashed in his eyes.

The two chatted for a while longer before the door slammed.

"My lord, are you inside?" Ji Xiang asked.

"come in."

Jixiang hurried in with a face full of anger, and saw an outsider salute quickly.

"What's the matter?" Ren Ning asked.

"Young master, it's like this. Some servants are rewarded by the emperor, and they work lazily and procrastinate one by one. They either think it's hot or too much work. No matter how much the slaves can't shout."

"It's been a long time, and I haven't even tidied up a yard."

Ren Ning made a decisive move, "Write down the names. Give them a chance. If you take yourself seriously again, you won't hesitate to sell them."

These days it's hard to find four-legged toads, and there are people with two legs begging to be servants everywhere.

He suddenly lost his mind slightly.

The little brothers and sisters named Sijin and Baishui in Laigu County don't know what happened.
