Chapter 194: Xiao Zhang's rumors testify

Xiao Zhang was dumbfounded, and his eyeballs almost burst out of his sockets. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info She is not a fool, she can naturally hear the meaning of Ma Xiuying's words, and it is precisely because she understands the meaning of the words that she suddenly feels creepy. She stared at Ma Xiuying, as if she had only met Ma Xiuying today, her face was so white that she didn't dare to blink her eyelids.

Ma Xiuying continued: "My stepmother has lived in Chuzhou for so long, and I have heard of her husband's prestige among the people and soldiers. ”

Xiao Zhang trembled, "I, I, I'm just a lady, and people speak softly......"

"But you are the one who accompanied your father-in-law on his deathbed, as long as you show the words of your father-in-law on his deathbed and the evidence he left behind, and the husband will take care of other things. Seeing that Xiao Zhang's cowardice should not be, Ma Xiuying added fuel to the fire and said: "If the military power of Chuzhou is taken over by Guo Tianxu, I will return with my husband and the state to establish himself and die." With Guo Tianxu's ability, it is estimated that he can only watch us leave safely. You are different, we have no reason to take you to Hezhou, you will be bound to the Guo Mansion for the rest of your life, they often bully you when your father-in-law is there, and your father-in-law is gone, and it will be even more ...... Of course, if the husband gets the handsome position, we can protect you and Tianjue, and the husband will arrange an official position for Tianjue, and Tianjue will be able to take you out of the Guo Mansion as a matter of course......"

Xiao Zhang grabbed Ma Xiuying's hand violently, and asked hurriedly: "Will Yuanzhang arrange an official position for Tianjue?"

Guo Tianjue used to have a vacant position in the army, but after Guo Zixing left, no one paid attention to him, and Guo Tianxu was busy fighting for power and profit, and he had no time to take care of him. Xiao Zhang has worried about the future of herself and her son more than once, she knows very well the personalities of Guo Tianxu and Zhu Yuanzhang, and with Ma Xiuying's guarantee, she is more willing to choose to believe in Zhu Yuanzhang.

"I call you my stepmother, Tianjue is my younger brother, how can we ignore him? But it's really hard to say whether Guo Tianxu treats you as an aunt or whether he treats Tianjue as his own brother. You may not know that last time in Chuzhou, he asked Tianjue to poison his husband's wine, if it wasn't for his husband's luck to escape, maybe no one is here now. Once this matter is revealed, it is Tianjue who bears the black cauldron, can the generals under Fujun spare Tianjue? We don't want to embarrass our father-in-law and you, so we leave Chuzhou......" Ma Xiuying's words changed and said solemnly: "To tell the truth, this Chuzhou and Hezhou were all defeated by Fujun, and it is easy for Fujun to take back military power, he just doesn't want to meet Guo Tianxu and force the Guo family to the end of the road, so I came up with such a tactful way to ask for help." ”

Xiao Zhang's face twitched, she had recklessly let Guo Zixing go down to Chuzhou to seize Zhu Yuanzhang's military power, and now she has to say a little more to help Zhu Yuanzhang regain military power, is this the current world newspaper? Listening to Ma Xiuying's tone, she seems to have known that Guo Zixing's decision to go to Chuzhou was her own idea, if she really left her alone, who else could she count on, the son who was not angry? Thinking of this, Xiao Zhang nodded gloomily and promised to announce Guo Zixing's last words in public.

Ma Xiuying couldn't help but be overjoyed, and hurriedly helped Xiao Zhang lie down, "Mother-in-law, you sleep for a while, I'll go to the mourning hall to guard." ”

"Xiuying, I don't have a certificate, I'm afraid I won't be able to convince people outside. Xiao Zhang hesitated and spoke easily, but Guo Zixing didn't give her anything when she died, where did she find a voucher to come out.

"This is the tiger talisman that commands the Chuzhou army, you take it first. Ma Xiuying stuffed the tiger talisman that had been prepared a long time ago into Xiao Zhang's hand. As long as Xiao Zhang's family took out the tiger talisman in public, even if Guo Tianxu had the original tiger talisman in his hand, he would not be able to explain this matter for a while.

Of course, this tiger talisman is not the tiger talisman that Zhu Yuanzhang dedicated to Guo Zixing, hehe, this tiger talisman was originally carved by Zhu Yuanzhang himself, and he can make the first one, can't he make the second one as it is, he is bent on taking back the military power in Chuzhou, and he doesn't leave a back hand for himself.

Xiao Zhang held the tiger talisman in fear, sighed silently, looked at Ma Xiuying's back, and stopped talking, except for his stupid son, none of them were fuel-efficient lamps.

Ma Xiuying came to the spirit, and Zhu Yuanzhang was thanking the mourning guests as a family member. I saw that his forehead was red and swollen, and he didn't know how many kowtows and how many tears he shed.

Ma Xiuying knelt beside him and kowtowed to the coffin, and said in a low voice: "I just sent my stepmother back to the room to rest, and I heard my stepmother say that my father-in-law designated to pass on the military power to you before he died, and also left her the tiger talisman that commanded the Chuzhou army, and asked her to hand it over to you." ”

"How is it possible?" Zhu Yuanzhang's body trembled, opened his mouth unbelievably, and subconsciously touched the tiger talisman in his arms, of course, he only touched the Hezhou tiger talisman, and the tiger talisman in Chuzhou had long since disappeared.

"I don't know, that's what the Anti-Justice Mother said. Ma Xiuying accentuated her tone, "If the soldiers support you, and your father-in-law's last words also designate you, you are qualified to compete with Guo Tianxu for military power." ”

"Oh......" Zhu Yuanzhang pondered for a long time, "Are you sure your father-in-law ......?"

Ma Xiuying replied without leaking, "I don't know what my father-in-law said on his deathbed, the important thing is that my stepmother really heard my father-in-law say this, not to mention that there is a Chuzhou Tiger Fu as a proof." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang heard the song and knew the elegance, held her hand, and squeezed it gently, "Madam, thank you for your hard work." ”

Ma Xiuying didn't raise her head, "What about Guo Tianxu?"

"I heard that he is now busy befriending the generals in Chuzhou. ”

Ma Xiuying laughed shamefully, "If I don't even kneel here honestly and do my filial piety, is it useful to hold Buddha's feet temporarily?"

This time, Ma Xiuying miscalculated, and Guo Tianxu's temporary cramming really played a role.

There are 100,000 soldiers in Chuzhou City, in addition to the tens of thousands recruited by Zhu Yuanzhang, and later when Guo Zixing was in charge of military power, he took refuge in tens of thousands of people, Guo Tianxu could not win over the tens of thousands of people recruited by Zhu Yuanzhang, but he could win over those who later took refuge.

Those soldiers who later took refuge were not close to Zhu Yuanzhang, and Guo Tianxu was Guo Zixing's eldest son and had an orthodox inheritance name, so many people suddenly shouted for Guo Tianxu and shook their fists.

Guo Zixing's funeral was very grand, and the Red Turban Army from all sides sent people to mourn. However, many generals' minds were not on this for a long time, and as soon as the funeral was over, the guests did not disperse, and the generals were divided into two factions to support Zhu Yuanzhang and Guo Tianxu in charge of military power.

The Tingguo faction respectfully called Guo Tianxu the generalissimo and asked him to arrange for the posts of generals; the Tingzhu faction immediately shouted at King Xiaoming that the will of King Xiaoming had not been decreed and refused to recognize Guo Tianxu as the generalissimo; the Tingguo faction said that Guo Tianxu was Guo Zixing's son-in-law and that it was natural for him to inherit his father's business; and the Tingzhu faction said that Zhu Yuanzhang was loyal, filial, benevolent, and righteous, and who else could he be......

There was a lot of trouble in the front hall, and Xiao Zhang was helped out tremblingly by Ma Xiuying, looked at everyone timidly, and said in a mosquito-like voice: "The lord said before he died, saying that Zhu Yuanzhang would take over the military ......power" She closed her eyes tightly, and did not dare to look at everyone's expressions, but repeated this sentence like a repeater.

The soldiers were in an uproar, stunned by the sudden news.

Guo Tianxu was furious and kicked over, "Impossible, you dead old woman, what nonsense, how can my father pass on the handsome position to outsiders? I am the rightful son-in-law, and Zhu Yuanzhang is just a foreigner." ”

Ma Xiuying pulled Xiao Zhang behind her, dodged away, and scolded: "Do you want to kill people in front of everyone?

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand, and Xu Da and others immediately surrounded Guo Tianxu and Ma Xiuying.

Xiao Zhang's face turned pale, and he defended in horror: "I am from the Guo family, how can I speak for outsiders, did the old man say this to me when he was dying, or did the tiger talisman as a proof......"

As soon as the tiger talisman came out, everyone was dumbfounded, how could the tiger talisman that commanded the Chuzhou army be in the hands of Xiao Zhang, could it be that Guo Zixing really wanted to pass the handsome position to Zhu Yuanzhang?

Guo Tianxu was furious, "Do you still dare to talk nonsense? What benefits did Zhu Yuanzhang give you? You used a fake tiger talisman to deceive everyone?"

Xiao Zhang cried and grabbed the ground, "I'm going to talk nonsense, why don't you just say that the lord passed the handsome position to Tianjue? Even if Zhu Yuanzhang gives me Tianda benefits, can it be better than my own son becoming the generalissimo? I don't know if this Linghu Fu is true or false, anyway, the master asked me to transfer it to Zhu Yuanzhang, you can verify it yourself." ”

Yes, if Xiao Zhang's last words are to be falsely transmitted, they should be passed on to Guo Tianjue in order to obtain the greatest benefits, after all, an adopted son-in-law is not as good as a son-in-law. When everyone heard this, they all had thoughtful expressions on their faces.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Guo Tianxu each sent a confidant general to verify the tiger talisman, and both sides said it was true.

"You, you are untrustworthy!" Guo Tianxu was so angry that his fingers trembled, and his chest rose and fell violently. He never expected that Xiao Zhang would say such a thing at a critical moment, and looking at everyone's faces, they all seemed to believe it. He hurriedly took out the tiger talisman from his arms, "This is the real thing for me!

Now the generals are confused, the two tiger talismans are exactly the same, which one is true and which one is false, it will be really unclear for a while.

Zhu Yuanzhang stared at the tiger talisman, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl weirdly, and then looked at Ma Xiuying, who was protecting Xiao Zhang's family, and didn't speak.

Xiao Zhang knelt on the ground and cried, "Master, your bones are not cold, and some people are black and white." Master, open your eyes and see......"

"What are you doing?" Da Zhang heard the noise, got out of the backyard, and after listening to Guo Tianxu's narration, his face suddenly changed greatly, and he slapped Xiao Zhang's face, gritting his teeth and scolding: "You slut who eats inside and out, my Guo family provides for you to support you, and your arms are actually turned out, helping those two little beasts who are angry with the old man to speak!"

"It's because it's the master's last words that I can't hide it. Xiao Zhang covered his face and couldn't cry.

"What are you, do you have the qualifications to speak here?" Da Zhang raised his eyebrows, glanced at everyone, and sneered: "What a concubine who can't get on the stage says, can you take it seriously?"
