Ma Xiuying said: "The world will be the prince's in the future, and of course these shadow guards are also the prince's, I don't dare to take credit." But I ask you to remember that they have done great deeds and give them a reward. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was in a happy mood and said with a smile: "Without them, the war over the years would not have been so smooth." They have done so much for me, and I will certainly reward them heavily, and the day when the world will be determined in the future will be the day when they will return to their homeland. ”

"It doesn't matter to them that they return home, most of them are orphans and come from low backgrounds, if you can give them a good background, so that their descendants can be treated with Mianze, I believe they will be grateful. Ma Xiuying obviously understands the needs of the shadow guard better than Zhu Yuanzhang.

She once asked Mu Longsheng why he didn't use the shadow guard's network to inquire about her life experience and the whereabouts of her relatives.

Mu Longsheng categorically vetoed it at the time, "From the moment they threw me under the tree, I had nothing to do with them. ”

Ma Xiuying didn't want him to be so extreme, so she persuaded: "Maybe your relatives have a last resort?"

Mu Longsheng still stubbornly said: "In any case, they abandoned me first, if I have a child in the future, I will never leave him and ignore him." ”

Therefore, Ma Xiuying believes that these orphan-born shadow guards do not have a deep affection for their predecessors, and they are more willing to pin their hopes on the younger generations, so that their descendants can get ahead. But in a hierarchical feudal society, a person's background is more valued by the world than a person's ability, so giving them money is not as important as allowing them to have a good background.

"Of course, as long as they are willing to continue to serve me, when the war is over, I will set up a special government secretary to reuse them and grant them official positions, so that their origins are no longer low. Hehe, how can such an ingenious intelligence network be abolished and not used, I also need them to supervise the conduct of civil and military officials in the future......" Zhu Yuanzhang naturally had no reason not to agree, he didn't tell anyone about it, including the most trusted courtiers, he planned to take over Ma Xiuying's shadow guard, and expand this force, not only the enemy camp should have Zhumen to spy on the news at all times, but also to install Zhumen in the courtiers and the people in the future, so that he could grasp the movements of the courtiers and the people anytime and anywhere.

"I thanked the prince for them. Ma Xiuying was very happy to see that Zhumen and Zhu Wei, who had followed her for many years, would have a stable and good development future in the future.

"I'd like to thank you for your careful planning. Zhu Yuanzhang smiled very heartily, and couldn't wait to summon the responsible leaders of Zhu Men and Zhu Wei, and he had to take this power into his hands immediately to rest assured.

Ma Xiuying asked Zhu Yuanzhang to give her a few days to deal with the handover of the film guard organization, because Zhumen is developing layer by layer, and she doesn't know some people, so she must let Zhumen's connector count the names of these people, the current lurking enemy camp and their biographies, so that Zhu Yuanzhang can be clear at a glance and facilitate his later arrangements and deployment. And she is only discussing with Zhu Yuanzhang now, and the shadow guard has not been notified yet, so she has to give them two days to digest the news.

sent Zhu Yuanzhang away, and Ma Xiuying summoned Xun Ying.

Xun Ying immediately stepped forward to help her change her clothes and take off her headdress.

This is Ma Xiuying's perennial living habits, after the courtyard door is locked, she will change into the loosest and lightest cotton clothes, without any accessories on her body, and her face is facing the sky, unlike other women who have to maintain exquisite makeup at all times in order to wait for Zhu Yuanzhang's arrival at any time.

She closed her eyes and pondered for a while, then suddenly opened her eyes and said, "Ying'er, I have already told the prince about Zhu Men and Zhu Wei. ”

Xun Ying was taken aback, the movements in her hands stopped, she didn't know how to answer, she didn't dare to persuade Ma Xiuying to hide something from Zhu Yuanzhang, but she was very reluctant in her heart that Ma Xiuying would hand over the power in her hands. After all, you can't have the heart to harm others, and you can't have the heart to prevent people. Zhu Yuanzhang has so many women, if he doesn't cherish Ma Xiuying one day, wouldn't Ma Xiuying be helpless.

Ma Xiuying didn't know Xunying's worries, and said to herself: "I used to hide it from the prince because I was afraid that Zhumen and Zhu Wei would not be able to do things, and after telling him, the more hopeful he was, the greater the disappointment. Now that he knows in advance, I can't hide it anymore. Besides, I once promised the shadow guards that one day they would have their way out, and the prince had promised to praise them for their merits and allow them to hold official positions. ”

"The slave and maid thanked the master for the great kindness of Zhu Men and Zhu Wei. Xun Ying knelt down without thinking, excited and sad in his heart, Ma Xiuying has always treated them well, this is why they are willing to follow, but unfortunately they will soon have a new owner.

"Get up, I have something I want to discuss with you. You have followed me for many years, and the best youth has been delayed, and I plan to let you out of the house, so that you can be with the person you like in the future. Ma Xiuying's pronunciation of the latter sentence is very heavy, which obviously means something.

Xun Ying has never married, and Mu Longsheng has never married, if she still doesn't understand the affection between the two, she will be a fool. Mu Longsheng, as the first leader of the shadow guard, will inevitably be reused by Zhu Yuanzhang in the future, and Xun Ying does not have to worry about suffering if he follows him.

"No, the slave doesn't want to leave the house, and the slave is willing to stay with the master for the rest of his life. Xun Ying shook his head violently, "If you hand over Zhumen and Zhu Wei to the prince, only the slave and maid will be left, and the slave and maid can't and don't want to leave you!"

"Alas, you girl," Ma Xiuying said with emotion: "You can go out with confidence, I will take care of myself, now that my position is unshakable, what do you have to worry about." ”

"The slave and maid don't leave, ask the master to be fulfilled!" Xun Ying kowtowed, and soon his forehead was bruised.

She has been by Ma Xiuying's side all these years, happy for Ma Xiuying's joy, and sad for Ma Xiuying's sadness, only she knows how hard Ma Xiuying lives, and Princess Wu, who seems to have infinite scenery, has endured many grievances and helplessness behind her. Even if she can't help Ma Xiuying, she can at least accompany Ma Xiuying to relieve her boredom, if she leaves, Ma Xiuying will become more and more lonely. Therefore, she will never leave Ma Xiuying alone to face the ups and downs in the future for herself.

"Okay, if you don't go, you won't go. Ma Xiuying hurriedly pulled her up and complained: "Let you go and don't force you to die, people who don't know still think I'm bullying you." ”

"Ah, there are no taboos, the master can't put that word on his lips. Xun Ying burst into tears and laughed, "As long as you don't let the slave and maid out of the house, the slave and maid are willing to be bullied by you." A vague figure appeared in her mind, and it quickly disappeared. Brother Mu, I'm sorry, my master needs me more than you.

Could it be that this girl has a tendency to carry back the mountain, she doesn't like Mu Longsheng, she likes me? Ma Xiuying almost fell to the ground.
