"Yes, Your Majesty!" After Wang Chengen gave some instructions outside the hall, the three men walked into the hall.
"Your Highness, I am Huang Fei, the commander-in-chief of the Guanliao Dengjin Navy."
"I am Zheng Zhilong, the deputy governor of the Front Army Governor's Office."
"Student Zheng Sen."

"Yes, Commander Liu Wenyao had already paid out all the overdue military ranks when he was at Tiemen Pass."
"That's good. Promote Huang Fei to the position of associate governor of the Left Army Governor's Office, and reward the officers and soldiers under his command with 100,000 taels of silver." Chongzhen waved his finger lightly and gave the reward.
