The morning breeze carried the fragrance of the earth, and the sunlight was not to be outdone, and it also penetrated through the cracks in the windows, illuminating the room. The people in the www.biquge.info room of the pen "Fun" Pavilion suddenly discovered that they had sat opposite each other all night unconsciously.

Ma Xiuying couldn't help but yawn, it turned out that the story was so tiring, it had to be told wonderfully, but it couldn't be delayed. In fact, she couldn't remember all the details, and she barely finished telling Liu Bang's history by piecing together. Such a story can only coax Zhu Yuanzhang, and a person who studies history deeply will definitely criticize her to the point where she is incomplete. Of course, she doesn't plan to write a biography, she just hopes to inspire Zhu Yuanzhang from it.

After listening to Liu Bang's story, Zhu Yuanzhang was still unsatisfied, got up to find water to drink, there was only a pot of herbal tea on the table, and Xun Ying left the room early. He asked the servants outside to change the hot water, handed it to Ma Xiuying in person, and said timidly: "Madam, do you think I can be a great hero like Liu Bang?"

Ma Xiuying sighed slowly, "Of course I hope that Starling can be a big hero like Liu Bang." What Liu Bang admires most about me is that even if he attacked the hegemony, when the prince of Qin surrendered to him, he could notice that the world had not yet been calmed, and he was not confused by the prosperity in front of him, so he decisively withdrew from the hegemony, and finally defeated Xiang Yu and unified the world. Starling asked himself, if one day you meet Liu Bang's situation, can you leave decisively?"

Zhu Yuanzhang was silent, he knew that this was Ma Xiuying in disguise to persuade him not to be confused by the immediate interests, and not to get carried away for a little result. He remembered that he had a conflict with Ma Xiuying about this matter before, and his face couldn't help but be ashamed.

Ma Xiuying saw that he finally understood his hard work, smiled with relief, and continued: "In the past, Liu Bang had Zhang Liang, Xiao He, Han Xin and other subordinates, and now you also have Tang He, Xu Da and other generals, you are not short of generals but strategists, you need a wise man like Xiao He who can handle political affairs with foresight, and when the time comes, you just have to give orders and let them carry out the decrees, and it will not be you who will be anxious about the people's livelihood contradictions like Dingyuan in the future, but them." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang flattered: "Isn't a lady just a talented person who strategizes, and it is enough for me to have a lady." ”

Ma Xiuying knew that he was currying favor with himself and taking the opportunity to reconcile, so she couldn't help but chuckle and said: "I'm just a woman after all, how can I see as far as you men." You can mix a few words in small things, but you have to rely on the starling to make up his own mind for big things. After hesitating for a moment, Fu Zhengse said: "No matter what happens in the future, I hope that the starling can know people well, pay attention to the advice, 'there must be my teacher in the threesome', and it is not a bad thing to listen to other people's opinions." ”

Ma Xiuying doesn't dare to think of herself as a talent, it is taboo for women to do politics, Yang Yunhua wants to be a female general and is criticized, she wants to meddle in Zhu Yuanzhang's political affairs everywhere, and she will not be scolded to death. Second, she has never been involved in politics, and indiscriminate command may make things worse. It's better to just like this, occasionally mention Zhu Yuanzhang, help him take care of the military supplies and backyard, and let him do things without worries.

Zhu Yuanzhang arched his hand and said: "What the lady said is very true, I have been taught." ”

"Starling is lost, and I am relieved. Ma Xiuying held his hand and laughed mischievously, and the two returned to their former harmony.

Xun Ying knocked on the door and entered the room, and saw that the couple were smiling, and clasped hands together as she had left, and couldn't help but quip: "Madam and the master haven't slept all night?" Hey, there is a brother surnamed Feng outside the house who asks to see him, so it's better for the slave to push it and tell the master to rest for a day. ”

"Is your girl's skin loose?" Ma Xiuying feigned anger and quickly withdrew her hand.

Xun Ying stuck out his tongue, but there was no horror on his face, only a smile. The happiest person for the two to reconcile was her, and she couldn't help but secretly blame the Feng brothers for coming at the wrong time.

Zhu Yuanzhang didn't have time to pay attention to the pair of masters and servants, and hurriedly looked for a coat to meet the Feng brothers.

Ma Xiuyingqi said: "Who are these two people, so that Starling values it so much." ”

"These two people are also chivalrous people among the bandits, one is called Feng Guoyong and the other is Feng Guosheng. In the past, they set up a village in Dingyuan Miaoshan to protect themselves, and when they heard that I was recruiting, they deliberately led their troops to surrender. The lady would never have imagined that they were still scholars. Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes flashed with a hint of longing, although these soldiers shouted that they were useless scholars, in fact, everyone knew that Shinong and industry were the criteria for measuring the status of the people, and the little daughter-in-law was the first choice to read when she married. Alas, this is the same psychology as modern people's hatred of the rich, saying one thing in their mouths and thinking about another in their hearts.

"Come in, I'll see you too!" Ma Xiuying was very happy, and was about to ask Zhu Yuanzhang to find more strategists, when a scholar sent him to the door, God really helped Zhu Yuanzhang!

Outside the door walked in two Confucian scholars in their twenties, these two were well-dressed, gentle and elegant, and there was no arrogance at all. If Zhu Yuanzhang hadn't revealed their identities in advance, Ma Xiuying would never have imagined that these two were also bandit leaders who stood up for themselves in the past.

The two gentlemen understood the righteousness and made Zhu admire. Zhu Yuanzhang greeted him with a smile and talked to the reader, so he naturally wanted to be more literate.

Ma Xiuying also followed behind Ying Ying and bowed.

"I don't dare to greet the Lord and Mrs. Lao. The Feng brothers hurriedly returned the salute. They had heard from the people in the barracks that Zhu Yuanzhang's wife had a pair of big feet, and at this moment, Ma Xiuying bowed down and tightened her skirt, and a pair of big feet were naturally exposed, the Feng brothers were extremely smart, how could they not guess that this woman was Ma Xiuying. However, the pedantic nature of the scholar made them have a trace of contempt for Ma Xiuying, who did not bind their feet, but this thought was not revealed, after all, Ma Xiuying was the wife of their boss.

Zhu Yuanzhang said happily: "Mr. is coming from afar, please come into the house and sit." I am not short of generals but strategists, and it is really my great honor that the two of you will be sent by heaven. In the future, with the help of the two of you, the burden on my shoulders will be easier. ”

Regarding the self-proclaimed "me", Ma Xiuying has corrected Zhu Yuanzhang countless times, hoping that he can change this dirty bun-like name. However, after calling for so many years, how can it be changed in a while, Zhu Yuanzhang is still used to calling himself me. However, after meeting the Feng brothers, the inferiority complex towards literati in his bones spontaneously emerged, and his words and deeds subconsciously became gentle.

Feng Guoyong and Feng Guosheng looked at each other, happy and surprised, Zhu Yuanzhang's words completely dispelled the concerns of the two, and there was finally no pearl to secretly invest. At the same time, their contempt for Ma Xiuying is also gone, this Mrs. Ma's vicious eyes hit the nail on the head to break the current shortcomings of Zhu Yuanzhang's army. The two of them were also willing to defect to Zhu Yuanzhang because of this opportunity, in order to reuse it. At that moment, the attitude of the two of them was more respectful than when they entered the door, and they insisted on refusing to sit down, one left and one right under Zhu Yuanzhang, and said respectfully: "My lord, but if I ask, my subordinates know everything!"

Ma Xiuying is the best at observing words and feelings, but she did not ignore the previous careless attitude of the Feng brothers, seeing that the two of them were respectful, knowing that they had been moved by Zhu Yuanzhang's words to take on a heavy responsibility, she couldn't help but smile lightly, and asked someone to send fragrant tea and melons and fruits to retire.

When she came out of the living room and saw Li Qi'er walking in the garden, Ma Xiuying frowned and reprimanded: "There is a foreign man in the house, what are you doing when you come out, why don't you go back to your yard quickly." ”

"Yes. Li Qi'er was in a dark shadow right now, obviously she didn't sleep well last night, she heard that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't leave the house, so she deliberately walked around the house, hoping to "meet" Zhu Yuanzhang, but Zhu Yuanzhang didn't meet it, and met Ma Xiuying, with a face as if she had eaten stool. She was dissatisfied with Ma Xiuying's words that she was not allowed to see her foreign man, but she didn't dare to refute half a sentence, and she retreated from her grievances.

"Stop, come to my room, I have something to say. Ma Xiuying looked at Li Qi'er's non-contradictory appearance, and remembered last night's incident again, and was furious. She disdains to be jealous of others, and she is worried about Zhu Yuanzhang's feelings, so she repeatedly tolerates Li Qi'er. However, Li Qi'er had to make inches, and dared to sow discord in front of Zhu Yuanzhang, and didn't teach Li Qi'er any lessons, just afraid that Li Qi'er would really treat her as a face.

Li Qi'er was suddenly panicked, Ma Xiuying has always looked condescending and disdainful of her, and it was the first time she had seen Ma Xiuying speak so fiercely. She glanced at the red beans and silkworm girls around her, and asked them to inform Zhu Yuanzhang quickly. One of her concubines has no qualifications to rebel against housewives, and can only rely on Zhu Yuanzhang for protection.

After entering the courtyard gate, Ma Xiuying ordered Li Qi'er to kneel on the ground.

Li Qi'er didn't dare to disobey, although she landed on her knees, her face was obviously indignant and unfair. Seeing this, the red bean behind her was weak, sweating, and knelt down with a shiver.

Ma Xiuying didn't say a word, and was about to enter the house.

Li Qi'er blushed, gritted her teeth and said, "Madame, can you tell the concubine what is wrong?"

Packing up a concubine, it was not Ma Xiuying's turn to do it herself, she didn't look back, and said coldly: "Xunying, you tell Aunt Li what mistake she made." ”

Xun Ying had long seen that Li Qi'er was not pleasing to the eye, looked down at her condescendingly, and said disdainfully: "Madame's business will not allow you to chew your tongue, Madame will only punish you for kneeling under the sun for two hours." ”

The blood on Li Qi'er's face faded, and her face was frighteningly pale, she didn't expect that the matter of Ma Xiuying's burn that she talked about last night would actually reach Ma Xiuying's ears, which shows that her every move is under Ma Xiuying's surveillance, so wouldn't her previous careful thoughts have also been understood by Ma Xiuying? The bright sun shone on her body, and she only felt a chill all over her body, and she couldn't wait to faint.

Ma Xiuying's personality is affected by her previous life, she likes to go straight to work, she hates intrigue with people the most, and she especially hates the trivial things in the backyard.

The silkworm girl who was dedicated to the savior wandered outside the hall, just waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang to finish discussing the matter and stepped forward to tell Aunt Li that she was taken away by her wife, but she didn't see Zhu Yuanzhang come out until it was dark, so she had to continue to draw circles in the garden, and unconsciously fell asleep, and was bitten by mosquitoes for several large bags.
