Chapter 37: Claiming the King
Not long after, Xu Da sent someone to deliver a letter again, and a person named Zhang Dingbian snatched back the bodies of Chen Youliang's son Chen Li and Chen Youliang and fled to Wuchang. Zhu Yuanzhang is supervising the military clean-up of the battlefield in front of the army, and he will be triumphant in the near future.
After a while, sure enough, another wax-sealed bamboo tube was delivered, Ah Xiu opened it and looked at it, and said to Su Xin: "Grandpa Guo has captured Chen Youliang's concubine Da Shi, and he will send someone to send it later, and Grandpa Guo asked me to arrange for disposal." Looking at Su Xin, Ah Xiu said again, "This hot potato, it's good to come early." β
Su Xin shook her head and smiled: "Madam is always so generous and humble, I'm afraid that one day I will really be bullied by others!" Now when she comes, what will Madame do? β
Ah Xiu sighed slightly: "For the time being, treat him with the courtesy of the side room, and when Yuanzhang becomes the king, there will naturally be other arrangements." It's only now that I've seen this person first, I have extra considerations. β
After speaking, when it was time to eat, the next person set the meal. Su Xin wanted to serve Ah Xiu for dinner, but Ah Xiu insisted on refusing: "You just called my sister, and now you are taking out this look to shave my face?" Let's sit down, and there is no one else, do you still care about these false courtesies? β
Su Xin also smiled, thanked him, sat down, and ate together. Ah Xiu moved the two plates of meat dishes in front of Su Xin, he was still eating the green vegetables and tofu in front of him, Su Xin retreated, Ah Xiu just laughed, saying that he was fine, and he rarely ate meat anymore.
When the next person withdrew the meal and poured tea, Dashi also arrived. Ah Xiu sat on the broad chair outside, let Su Xin also sit aside, and while letting Nada come in, he tightened the hairpin on his head and straightened the dark onion skirt on his body.
Ah Xiu heard someone come in, looked up, but frowned, it was a commander who brought the woman in, the woman was tied by a rope, and the commander held the head of the rope, not like a gift, but like a pig, a dog or a plaything.
Su Xin saw that Ah Xiu frowned, and naturally knew that she was not happy to treat people like this, so she got up first and said, "This sergeant, since Grandpa Guo asked him to send someone here, how can he still tie it up?" Do you know that Madame can't see such a thing? It's almost solved! β
The sergeant often Ah Xiu, looking at Su Xin, looked embarrassed, bowed his head and replied: "It's a humiliation and rudeness, but this woman is very strong, and she has to commit suicide by throwing herself into the water several times, I am afraid that she will die on the road, and she will be tied up as a last resort." β
Su Xin listened and looked at Ah Xiu, but Ah Xiu got up and looked at the woman carefully, only to see that this young woman was also very handsome, but her face was tear-stained, and her eyes were swollen and the size of a peach. So Ah Xiu sighed and walked up to her to untie the rope.
Su Xin hurriedly stretched out his hand to solve it. Ah Xiu asked the sergeant to go down to receive the reward first, looked at the woman and said, "What a handsome girl, young and in a good situation, why do you want to die?" If you have any grievances, tell me about them. β
Su Xin helped her untie the rope, and searched her body by the way, before telling her: "This is our Duchess of the Kingdom." The heart is very compassionate, don't just cry, if you have something to say, tell Mrs. SΓΉ. β
Hearing this, Dashi raised his head and looked at Ah Xiu fixedly. Ah Xiu met her gaze with a tight expression: what a fierce look! Looking at me so bluntly, this girl's temper is very straightforward! In this way, I am not afraid.
Ah Xiu smiled generously: "What a fierce woman!" These eyes actually burned me! Tell me what you have wronged, and I will give you justice. In my opinion, you are unwilling to follow our grandfather. β
Dashi was shocked, his provocative eyes did not annoy her, and he saw that she was not as luxurious as the noble ladies of other people, and her tone was very gentle, and the young woman next to her was also very respectful, but she had a little more affection for Ah Xiu.
So Da Shi also knelt on the ground, Su Xin was busy pulling her, she couldn't afford it, and said calmly: "Don't hide it from Madam, my Da Zhilan is the woman of the Emperor of the Great Xia Kingdom, and there is a way that one woman does not matter two husbands, and now that my emperor has died, your grandfather has already won the world of my emperor, why plunder me to humiliate?" Now I want to die, and go with my emperor! β
Ah Xiu smiled: "Why do you think that my grandfather accepted you just to humiliate?" Even if it's humiliation, why send someone to me first? You also know that I am the main room of Grandpa Guo, is it possible that Grandpa Cheng wants to torture someone, but he doesn't torture himself, Baba sent me here first? How can this be true?! β
said that he came to help her in person, and said: "Since I sent you all the way to me, I didn't treat you like a lowly woman." Now I don't say anything else, I just ask you, if you die, are you worthy of the flesh and blood in your womb?! β
Ah Xiu's words were soft and powerful, but Dashi was shocked when he heard it: flesh and bones? I haven't shown my affection, but how does she know?! Just as he was about to open his mouth, Su Xin understood, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to this girl!" My wife can pinch and calculate, and this thing can't be hidden from my wife. β
Ah Xiu said softly: "The child is already in your womb, and it is up to the girl whether to stay or abandon it." I only advise the girl to think twice, after all, the child in your belly is also the blood and blood of your man. Now your life and death are not your life alone. β
Dashi stroked his belly and asked hesitantly, "Are you sure I'm pregnant?" Will you count? I don't believe it! Then say, when was this child born? That's right. And I believed you. It's up to you! β
Ah Xiu smiled: "In April next year." Boy. Dashi was shocked again, and asked, "How did you cut off the man and woman of my womb?" β
Ah Xiu smiled even more: "Su Xin told you that I can pinch and calculate, if you can't calculate, why should I talk to you?" I'm the housewife here, and I naturally have a sense of proportion when I speak, and your stomach is not pregnant now, why should I make a trick for you to drill?! β
Dashi's look of surprise became even tighter, and he said: "Guogong categorically can't tolerate this child!" Isn't it the same to die when the time comes? Instead of being born humiliated, it is better to go underground with me now and reunite with the family! Isn't it cleaner? β
Ah Xiu shook his head and smiled: "What a water spirit!" Why are you so unenlightened? Since I know that you are pregnant, Grandpa Guo will naturally know about it in the future. But now that Grandpa Guo wants me to arrange it, and he knows that I usually don't like to kill, so naturally I don't want to insult you and hurt you. β
Sighing, Ah Xiu said again: "Besides, the life and death of the child in this womb are in your thoughts." If you want him to be born, don't tell him what he has done before, but just say that he is the son of the prince of the kingdom, and he will be fine. If you want him to die, it's even simpler, just tell him who he is, and someone will naturally take his life. β
After speaking, Ah Xiu looked into her eyes and said gently: "Sometimes, not knowing your own background is also a kind of compassion and tolerance. Then he took Da's hand with his right hand, patted it with his left hand, and said, "What does my sister think?" β
Da's body trembled, and tears flowed from his eyes: "Madame is so kind and kind, but she is so ruthless to let me serve his father-killing enemy, hide his life experience, and deceive him for the rest of his life?!" β
Ah Xiu raised her left hand, gently wiped her face, and said, "Ruthlessness and compassion are all arrangements created by fate. How can we control it? It's only to blame that we are women, women are weak, and mothers are strong. You have to live for this child. β
"You're going to swallow the tears in your stomach, you know? I won't do anything when I see you crying, but Grandpa Guo doesn't like this, he will think that your heart is not here, and then it will be troublesome again, and it will inevitably hurt this child. Besides, how can you conclude that my grandfather is not as good as your man? β
Su Xin saw that Ah Xiu's face was sad, and knew that she was also sad, so she explained: "Miss Zhilan, you should be comforting my wife, it is difficult for her to recover from her arrow wounds, and to plan and consider for you like this." Although there are many side rooms in my grandfather's house, but Mrs. protects you, no one will be difficult for you. β
Dashi finally understood, and made up his mind, kneeling down despite the two of them: "Cheap concubine Dashi, now I have a gift for my wife." In this case, in the future, listen to Mrs. Arranged! No more words! β
Ah Xiu helped her up, with a small tear in the corner of her eye, and said to her: "You don't know how much misfortune you have more than others, and you don't know how much blessing you have more than others." β

A few days later, Zhu Yuanzhang took the generals into Hongdu to repair, Ah Xiu and Su Xin also entered Hongdu with Dashi, and at the celebration banquet, Ah Xiu only said that he had a rash on his face and deliberately covered his face, so no one recognized him.
During the banquet, someone persuaded Zhu Yuanzhang to establish himself as the king, Zhu Yuanzhang was happy, and asked Ah Xiu: "Madame is the most literary and talented, according to Madame, what kind of king should Yuanzhang be called?" β
Ah Xiuyan smiled and said, "Have you ever heard a ballad in the country?" 'The rich man does not get up, and the poor man does not get up. But looking at the Year of the Goat, it is Wu Jiaguo. 'The country of the Wu family! Didn't Zhang Shicheng just call King Wu? Since we are now in the land of Wu Yue, why don't we also call him a king of Wu to suppress him? β
Zhu Yuanzhang and the generals claimed to be good, and Dashi secretly admired it when he heard it, and Ah Xiu said respectfully: "He Zhang Shicheng is not right, and he dares to call him King Wu, we have to let him know now that there is only one King Wu in the world, and we can also give him a wake-up call, let him change his name and surname as soon as possible!" β
Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and said, "Okay! Good! Good! The day before yesterday, I said that Mrs. is a female Zhuge Huang Yueying, and Mrs. is still humble, now you can talk about it, what am I talking about? The generals all claimed yes.
Ah Xiu bowed his head modestly, thanked everyone for the gift, and said: "If you want to be the king, of course, you must choose the auspicious day of the zodiac, you might as well let Mr. Berwyn do the math." After counting the days, we wrote a holy decree to King Xiao Ming and sent it to be sealed. β
Everyone toasted and congratulated Zhu Yuanzhang when they heard this, and when they were over, Ah Xiu and several henchmen stayed together to plan.
In this way, in the first month of the tenth year of Longfeng (the twenty-fourth year of Zheng, 1364 AD), Zhu Yuanzhang established himself as the king of Wu. He listened to everyone's advice and set up his eldest son as the son of the world. Set up hundreds of officials, with Xu Da and Li Shanchang as the left and right ministers, and often meet Chunyu Tonghai as Pingzhang political affairs. In the name of "the emperor's decree, the king of Wu's decree", he commanded the world.
What's even more coincidental is that Lian'er and Huilan happened to send the design pattern of the army uniform: the army's dress changed from the original red cloth tied on the head and body as a mark of various miscellaneous clothes, to a unified red hat and jacket and war skirt. Among them, the hat is a broad-brimmed red-skinned strong hat, with a fierce two-character flag, which is very elegant and cute.
