late at night.

The Lord’s Mansion, the Imperial Study Room.

The new king Huang Gan was reviewing the documents, and his wife Li Peiwen came in with her servant and midnight snack.

Huang Gan frowned slightly and closed the document casually: "Didn't you say that you shouldn't come in to disturb me when I work?"

Li Peiwen smiled and said, "I know you have a lot of things to do and are very busy. I don't like being disturbed by me."

"But it's 12 o'clock in the evening now. No matter how busy you are, you have to have some midnight snack first."

"How can I work if I'm hungry and don't have the energy to do it?"

Huang Gan smiled bitterly when he heard this: "I don't feel hungry if you don't say it, but when you say it, I feel hungry."

Li Peiwen smiled and said, "You are so fascinated by your work."

As she said that, she asked the servant to put down the midnight snack.

The midnight snack is white porridge and vegetables, as well as 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 king of the country, he was in charge of economic and government affairs and delegated power to Chen Ning's important task of national defense and military.

In recent years, the economic development has reached a bottleneck period, and the global economy has begun to be in a state of recession.

Therefore, Huang Gan took the lead and advocated clean office.

His diet is basically very simple, and the midnight snack is just the most common white porridge and green vegetables.

Li Peiwen ordered the servant to step down, and he personally filled a bowl of porridge for Huanggan and served her husband for midnight snacks.

Huang Gan said with a smile: "The white porridge and green vegetables all look very appetizing. Don't you eat some together?"

Li Peiwen smiled and said, "I'm not hungry!"

Huang Gan smiled: "Then I will eat it myself."

Huang Gan was having a midnight snack while chatting with his wife about family matters, enjoying this rare warm moment.

but!

Suddenly a guard came in and reported respectfully: "The king of the country, Xiang Cheng, the chief minister of the cabinet, is asking for a meeting outside."

Mr. Xiang!

Huang Gan and Li Peiwen were both a little surprised.

It's late at night now. What urgent matters does Mr. Xiang have to ask for the meeting with the king at this time?

Huang Gan soon remembered that this afternoon, he heard that Chen Ning and the Xiang family had a conflict at the Jiuchongtian Club. Both sides could fight, but the Xiang family was said to have suffered the loss in the end.

Could it be that Mr. Xiang came for this matter?

Huang Gan frowned slightly, then calmed down again, and ordered lightly: "Please come in."

"Yes, the king."

Soon, Xiang Cheng walked in under the guidance of the guards of the Lord's Mansion.

"I have met the king of the country under Xiangcheng."

"Old Xiang is exempted from gifts and is given a seat."

A guard brought a chair and asked Xiang Cheng to sit down.

Only then did Xiang Cheng notice that the king was having midnight snacks.

Huang Gan smiled and said, "I'm having midnight snack. Do Mr. Xiang want to go with me?"

Li Peiwen immediately said: "I'll give Mr. Xiang a bowl of porridge."

Xiang Cheng quickly refused and said, "Thank you, thank you, the lord, my wife, but no need. The old minister has something important to discuss with the lord tonight, not for midnight snacks."

Huang Gan frowned slightly.

Li Peiwen immediately said, "Then I'll leave first, you guys will talk."

Huang Gan asked lightly while drinking porridge in a slow sip, "Old Xiang came to see me late at night, I don't know what it is for?"

Xiang Cheng said in a deep voice: "The old minister came to see the king, just for one thing, that is, to ask the king to agree to the cabinet's request to dismiss Chen Ning from his military rank."

Huang Gan immediately narrowed his eyes and returned to his original state when he heard this.

He said quietly: "Why is this?"

"You asked to remove the position of commander-in-chief of Chen Ning's North Frontier Army before, and I have agreed to you."

"Why do you want to expel Chen Ning's military rank now?"

"Old Xiang is all people in the system. Sometimes, he leaves a way out for others and also leaves a way out for himself."

Huang Gan's words are actually quite meaningful.

Because the Xiang family had no idea, Chen Ning was now the chief general of the military.

If the Xiang family is willing to let Chen Ning go and don’t cause trouble for Chen Ning, then the Xiang family will let Chen Ning go, so they will let themselves go.

If the Xiang family continues to cause trouble for Chen Ning like this and attempts to kill Chen Ning, then the Xiang family will definitely be the Xiang family itself who will be in trouble in the end.
