Novel website..org, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Ruyi Little Man!

This incident was a happy event for Mr. Xiao, but not for Lu Ding.

The smile on Tangning's face faded and she asked, "Why is Mr. Lu here?"

Mr. Xiao smiled and said, "After Jue'er left, I was the only one left in the Xiao family. My in-laws often come here to accompany me, an old man. What happy event did General Tang just say?"

Tangning coughed lightly and said, "I just met Your Majesty. Xiao Jue's contribution to the peace of the grassland this time is indispensable. When he comes back, he will be promoted to General Zuo Xiaowei."

"He deserves a lot of credit." Mr. Xiao said without giving Xiao Jue any face: "Without you, he would have died on the grassland. Speaking of this, I haven't thanked General Tang properly..."

"You're welcome, sir..." Tangning waved her hand and said, "I have something else to do, so I'll go back first."

Mr. Xiao was surprised and said: "General Tang, why don't you sit down and have a cup of tea before leaving?"

"No, no, no..." Tang Ning waved her hand and turned around without hesitation and walked back. It was better to wait until Lu Ding was gone to tell Mr. Xiao the good news.

He had just taken two steps when he heard footsteps coming from the front.

Tang Ning raised her head and saw Chen Huang and Wei Jian walking towards this side.

Mr. Xiao and Lu Ding had already stepped forward to greet him, bowed and said, "See your majesty."

"No courtesy." Huang Chen waved his hand and said, "It seems that I am still a step too late. Tangning has told you about the Xiao family's future, right?"

Mr. Xiao was startled and asked, "If you have a queen, what kind of queen do you have?"

"Didn't she tell you about Lu Shangshu's daughter Youxi?" Chen Huang glanced at him and looked at Tang Ning in confusion.

Tangning sighed, bowed her hands to Mr. Xiao, and said, "When I came back, Lu Ya was already two months pregnant. The Xiao family has a child. Congratulations to Mr. Xiao..."

He turned his head, looked at the ashen-faced Lu Ding, and said, "Congratulations, Mr. Lu..."

"Congratulations!" Lu Ding was already stunned by the sudden news. He didn't care that Emperor Chen was still present and cursed loudly: "Two little beasts, they are insulting the family tradition, they are insulting the family tradition!"

Mr. Xiao, who was in high spirits, looked at him and frowned: "Who are you calling a little beast?"

Lu Ding said angrily: "Those two little beasts..."

"You still have the nerve to call other people little beasts!" Mr. Xiao glanced at him and said disdainfully: "You got married in October, and Ya'er was born in December. Others conceived in October, how could you, the Lu family, Only two months?”

"Fuck..."

"Who are you scolding?"

"I didn't scold you!"

When Mr. Xiao and Lu Ding had a quarrel, Tangning sneaked out of the Xiao Mansion. Let them quarrel between the Xiao family and the Lu family on their own.

After the quarrel, the two parents still live together, and they will never turn against each other because of this happy event.

However, I didn't expect that Lu Ding looked like a dog, and he was not a fuel-efficient lamp back then. In some families with strict family traditions, pregnancy before marriage would be severely punished, and it was very likely to cause death. Naturally, the general would not care about this. , as a son-in-law, Xiao Jue behaves in the same manner as his father-in-law did...

When Tang Ning returned home, she was surprised to see Tang Yaoyao interrogating Chen Zhou.

Chen Zhou stood in the courtyard, lowered his head and said, "My subordinates have seen with their own eyes that the general behaves well on the grassland and has never done anything to disgrace his wife."

Tang Yaoyao looked at him and asked, "Did nothing happen between him and the fourth princess of the prairie?"

Chen Zhou shook his head and said, "Absolutely not."

Tang Yaoyao got the answer she wanted and left with satisfaction. Tang Ning walked in from the door. Chen Zhou looked at him and immediately bowed: "Sir..."

Tang Ning glanced at him with satisfaction and said, "Xiao Jue will be promoted from Zhonglang General to General when he comes back this time. Who do you think is qualified for the position of Zhonglang General?"

Chen Zhou said: "There are many senior colleagues in the army..."

Tangning patted his shoulder and said, "Qualifications mean nothing. Ability is more important than qualifications. Your performance this time is very good. When the time comes, I will mention something to His Majesty."

Chen Zhou looked grateful and immediately said: "Thank you, sir!"

He comes from an ordinary background, and it is already rare to be able to sit in the position of a general at this age, and a general in the middle would not even dare to think about it...

Tangning waved her hand and said, "No need to thank me, this is all due to your hard work."

Talents should be treated as talents. It is indeed unfair for a talent like Chen Zhou to be just a mere general.

Even Xiao Jue can be considered a general. Chen Zhou is so busy these days that he can't even become a general.

After Chen Zhou left, Tang Ning sat alone in the pavilion in the courtyard, and the atmosphere was slightly deserted.

After he came back, he learned that Xiaoxiao had been taken away by the old beggar for training and had been gone for two months. A month ago, Tang Shui secretly took his mother to Jiangnan. Su Mei was now preparing to fight for the saint in Guizhou. The home feels quite empty.

In the past two days since she returned home, Tang Ning had not seen Zhao Man.

The Queen Mother is lonely, and she spends more time in the palace these days.

After not seeing each other for several months, Tangning missed the way she acted coquettishly in his arms.

royal palace.

Zhao Man took the Queen Mother's arm and walked in the imperial garden. When she was tired, she came to a pavilion to rest.

The Queen Mother slowly sat down and asked casually: "I heard that there was a victory in the north?"

Speaking of the north, Zhao Man's face showed a happy look and said: "Yes, the grassland has a new khan, and he will not fight with us in the future..."

The Queen Mother remembered something and asked again: "I heard that their Khan is a girl?"

Zhao Man nodded and said, "I met her when I was in Chu State, and she even gave me a whip."

The Queen Mother smiled and said: "The matter on the grassland is over. It's time for the soldiers to come back, right?"

"Already on the way..." Zhao Man said with a look of anticipation on his face, "We will arrive in Beijing in half a month at the latest..."

"Then it's time for Tangning to come back, right?" The Queen Mother seemed to say something casually and smiled: "He has made such great contributions to the country at a young age. I wonder how your father will reward him this time? "

"Hmph, reward him, I wish I could hit him a few times to make him remember it for a long time!" Before Zhao Man could speak, a voice came from the front.

The Queen Mother looked at Emperor Chen who was walking over and said in surprise: "Did he make His Majesty angry? This shouldn't be the case. He just pacified the south of the Yangtze River and the northwest..."

"That's the Queen Mother. You don't know what he did!" Huang Chen shook his head and said a little depressed: "He has been back to Beijing for two days, and he did not come back to me. Instead, he accompanied his wife to fly a kite. If If I hadn’t bumped into him on my private patrol incognito today, he might have waited until the main army commander came to see me..."

The Queen Mother smiled and said: "Young man, it's normal that he can't bear the pain of being separated in two places. He is a man of great talent. Your Majesty must be tolerant..."

"Why can't he bear the pain of being separated? He did it on purpose." Chen Huang twitched his lips and said: "Although he is young, his mind is no less than those old foxes in the court. He is worried about his superiority. The earthquake master, today he specifically asked me to apologize, asking for the merits to be balanced against the faults..."

Before Chen Huang finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Man, who had been restless since just now, and asked: "Man'er, what's wrong with you? Is there a prickly heat under your butt?"
