If there is no legitimate reason, Zhu Yuanzhang will never agree to let Ma Xiuying out of the house. Ma Xiuying handed over the shadow guard organization again, which made it even more inconvenient for her to hide her whereabouts.

Xun Ying wanted to persuade Ma Xiuying several times, but she wanted to say nothing, on the one hand, she was her closest master, on the other hand, she respected Master Daoyan and the worried Brother Mu, no one had an accident that she wanted to see.

When she was still hesitating, Ma Xiuying had already found Zhu Yuanzhang and said, "I want to go to Suxian, please allow me." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang knew that Su County was Ma Xiuying's hometown, and he wondered what Ma Xiuying and the Liu clansmen had almost broken off over the years, and what they were going back to do.

Ma Xiuying said: "Last night, my father and mother had a dream, and I looked panicked, I was worried that their graves would be destroyed, and I wanted to take a look. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang disagreed, "What a big deal, I will send someone to protect my father-in-law's grave." ”

"Last time, you weren't allowed to go when I wanted to go back to worship my ancestors, but this time I want to go in person. Ma Xiuying said sorry to her father and mother in her heart, it happened suddenly, she really couldn't think of a perfect solution, so she could only talk about her father and mother first, which was the only excuse for her to leave the palace openly. Even for this reason, she was worried that Zhu Yuanzhang would not let him go.

Sure enough, Zhu Yuanzhang dissuaded: "You still stay in the house, don't move around, it will take a month or two to go to Suxian County, and your body can't stand the bumps." ”

Ma Xiuying said insistently: "It is my unfilial piety to lose the remains of my father and mother, if their graves are destroyed again, what face will I have?"

Zhu Yuanzhang still disagreed, "When the war calms down, I will accompany you back to worship your ancestors, and by the way, worship your father-in-law and mother-in-law, I don't worry if you go alone." ”

"When you go back, you don't know the Year of the Monkey, and besides, Haosi and other places have been firmly controlled by you, and the remnants of Chen Han are gone, and I don't plan to go back with great fanfare, just bring a few guards, the news will not leak, and naturally no one will beat my idea." Ma Xiuying's expression was calm, and she had already made up her mind in her heart, no matter how Zhu Yuanzhang stopped her, she had to leave the house. Although worshipping her father's grave is an excuse, she plans to take a detour to Suxian after rescuing Daoyan from Pingjiang, believing that her father's mother knows that she has a reason for the incident in the spirit of heaven, and will not blame her.

"Then I'll let them go back to worship your father and mother instead of you. Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it and proposed to let Zhu Fan and Zhu Di go to Su County, Zhu Biao was a little uneasy, after all, Zhu Biao's identity as the son of the family is there, and it is easy to make a big splash.

"Biao'er's accident has left me in a state of disgrace, how can you let these two children go out alone again? I'd rather work hard myself than let them miss a minute. "Zhu Fan and Zhu Di are Ma Xiuying's biological sons, and it makes sense to go to worship Liu Dashan and Ma, but Ma Xiuying never wants the child to encounter any risks again, and if Zhu Fan and Zhu Di leave the house on her behalf, what excuse does she have to go to Pingjiang.

Zhu Yuanzhang persuaded him a few times, but seeing that Ma Xiuying couldn't listen to him, he was faintly unhappy in his heart, and said in a cold tone: "Anyway, I don't allow you to go out, and you don't want to go secretly!"

"The concubine obeys the prince's decree. Ma Xiuying lowered her eyes and saluted lightly. It seems that Zhu Yuanzhang's decision has little impact on her, but from her polite etiquette and alienated language, you can hear that she is extremely dissatisfied in her heart.

Hmph, two days ago, he was a parrot starling, this will be a concubine, Zhu Yuanzhang is also very unhappy, and he can't accuse Ma Xiuying of being unruly, and his loss and anger make him leave with his sleeves up.

He thought that the matter would pass in a few days after treating Ma Xiuying coldly, but who knew that Xunying would come to report that night that Ma Xiuying had a fever.

Zhu Yuanzhang was like a frightened bird, and he was restless at the thought that Ma Xiuying almost left him due to fever, and hurried to the main courtyard to visit Ma Xiuying.

When I arrived at the main house, I saw Ma Xiuying leaning on the head of the bed, with a wet towel on her forehead, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to reach out to touch it, but Ma Xiuying turned her head sideways to avoid it, and the wet wipes fell off.

Zhu Yuanzhang said angrily: "Who are you competing with?"

Ma Xiuying ignored him and scolded Xun Ying angrily, "Didn't I tell you that it's not a big deal, you still went to alarm the prince." You don't know that the prince is busy every day, so why bother the prince about this little thing?"

Xun Ying cried with a sad face, "Princess, you fainted just now, the slave and maid really can't ......"

Zhu Yuanzhang interrupted the conversation between the two, "Okay, don't blame Xun Ying, she is also worried about you, if she conceals your condition, I will punish her heavily." ”

Ma Xiuying closed her eyes and ignored him.

Zhu Yuanzhang said helplessly: "What's the point of you being angry with me like this, hurting your body, but making a few children worry, take care of your body as soon as possible, the children still need you." ”

"I teach my children to be filial to their parents all day long, but I am not filial to my parents, I did not be filial to them for a day before I was born, and I can't worship them after death, I, I, what face do I have to see people......" Ma Xiuying burst into tears for a while, crying so much that she was about to faint, at this moment she remembered Liu Dashan and Ma's love for her, it was really heartbreaking.

Xun Ying cried on the side: "The doctor said that the princess is caused by heart disease and depression. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang once saw Ma Xiuying crying so sadly, he couldn't bear it, and persuaded: "If you can take care of your body, I will promise you to go back to worship your father-in-law and mother-in-law." ”

Ma Xiuying stopped crying and begged: "Please let me go now, I can't wait for a moment." If she doesn't go to Pingjiang to persuade Dao Yan in person, I'm afraid that this stubborn guy would rather die than leave Pingjiang.

"No, you are not allowed to go anywhere until your body improves!" Zhu Yuanzhang forbade him sharply, he had already taken a step back, Ma Xiuying was still like this, she simply didn't take her body seriously.

Ma Xiuying closed her mouth stupidly, took the medicine handed by Xun Ying and drank it in one sip.

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head secretly, usually Ma Xiuying always procrastinates when she drinks medicine, and she has to take candied fruit to drink it all, she will not frown, it seems that she is very determined to go to Suxian, if she is well, let her go.

On the third day, this was already the limit of Ma Xiuying's patience, she deliberately rubbed grease and powder, modified her makeup, covered up her dull skin, and dressed up to see Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang really had no choice about this stubborn woman, he agreed to let Ma Xiuying take a few guards out of the house quietly, but he had to tell his whereabouts at all times, and if he was in danger along the way, he would go to the yamen for help, and he also gave Ma Xiuying a jade pendant like he visited, which could be used to assign officials.

Ma Xiuying's expression is complicated, she sometimes really hates Zhu Yuanzhang's affection, but some of Zhu Yuanzhang's subtle movements all show that he still cares about him all the time. If he changes to another woman, he will never make such concessions and care, and only Ma Xiuying is the only woman who can make him change his mind.
