As soon as Ma Cheng finished speaking, he heard a bang, and it turned out that the maid ring who was holding the copper basin in the house heard what Ma Cheng said, and was so frightened that he threw the copper basin on the ground.

Kou Baimen still couldn't believe that Ma Cheng broke four hundred thousand with fifteen thousand, and asked with big beautiful eyes, "Master, what did you say?" All the northern captives were defeated by the master? ”

Seeing Kou Baimen's red mouth in front of him, Ma Cheng's heart was moved, and he stepped forward and kissed Kou Baimen's small mouth, and then said unashamedly: "Of course, do you think you are a waste?" Fifteen thousand broke four hundred thousand, which is more powerful than Yue Fei back then! ”

Although Ma Cheng is a little bragging, in addition to Ma Cheng's proper command of this victory, the Qing army's communication between the top and bottom is not effective, and Ma Cheng's exploitation is the main reason, but it is not easy for Ma Cheng to win this battle.

Kou Baimen is twenty-four years old this year, and since she can remember, she has heard the legend that "the Eight Banners are less than 10,000, and the 10,000 are invincible", and now when she heard the man in front of her say that he defeated the 400,000 Eight Banners Army with more than 10,000 people, she couldn't believe it was true.

Seeing the stunned Kou Baimen, Ma Cheng smiled and said, "What? Still not convinced? You are Lao Tzu's woman, what did Lao Tzu lie to you for? ”

Ma Cheng was really sleepy, so he stood up and pulled Kou Baimen into the inner room, and then went to bed to rest. Of course, this is not Ma Cheng's brain, but Ma Cheng's tense nerves have finally been relaxed after more than a year of intense fighting, and he needs a woman to comfort him.

Ma Cheng lay on the bed with Kou Baimen in his arms, and after a while, a deep snoring sound came.

Seeing Ma Cheng in his arms, Kou Baimen sighed softly. Originally, Kou Baimen didn't have a good impression of Ma Cheng, he was cunning and evil, and he could be said to be a complete villain.

But today, I heard that it was this villain in his arms that he had achieved so many results that the imperial army had not achieved with just 15,000 people, and Kou Baimen's cold heart was a little relieved.

At the end of the Ming Dynasty, there were many prostitutes on the Qinhuai River in Nanjing, but why only Qinhuai Bayan was handed down to future generations? This is because in addition to being women, these eight women are not inferior to those old ministers in terms of patriotism.

Although Kou Baimen was born in a generation of prostitutes, but he has a patriotic heart, when Kou Baimen married Zhu Guobi, the Duke of Baoguo, it was hoped that Zhu Guobi could lead the soldiers to the Northern Expedition to recover the Ming Dynasty.

But what disappointed Kou Baimen was that Zhu Guobi completely lost the bravery of his ancestors, and he was useless except for eating, drinking, prostituting and gambling. Originally, Kou Baimen thought that his life would be like this, but he didn't kill a horse Cheng halfway and snatched Kou Baimen.

At that time, in Kou Baimen's heart, this Ma Cheng was not much stronger than Zhu Guobi, and he followed Ma Cheng just to prevent Ma Cheng from persecuting his friends Li Xiangjun and Liu Rus. But I didn't expect this Ma Cheng to be so powerful, and he could lead the army to defeat the invincible Manchu Eight Banners at a young age.

Thinking of Ma Cheng's slightness just now, Kou Baimen was a little ashamed, looking at the sleeping Ma Cheng, Kou Baimen gently kissed Ma Cheng's face.

This bite happened to be seen by Qiu Xiang, the maid of Kou Baimen, Qiu Xiang laughed in a low voice: "Miss, you always said that you wanted to marry a big hero, is this big hero in front of you?" ”

Kou Baimen, who was told the central matter, blushed slightly, and said clearly: "You dead girl, be careful that the slave family tears your mouth!" ”

I don't know about the fight between the concubine and Yahuan, Ma Cheng is having a nightmare at this time. In the two years since Ma Cheng traveled, the name Manchu Qing pressed on Ma Cheng's heart like a mountain, which is also one of the main reasons why Ma Cheng has become more and more crazy in the past two years, and the psychological pressure is too great.

At this time, Ma Cheng was still fighting to the death with the Manchu Qing in the city in his dream, and when he was slashing the Manchu Qing with a knife, he suddenly found that there was no one around him, Gu Yong and his own soldiers were originally guarding him, but Ma Cheng turned around and found that Gu Yong and others were hacked to death by the Qing army, and he was surrounded by a large number of Qing regiments.

A Qing soldier walked towards Ma Cheng with a knife, Ma Cheng wanted to swing the knife and slash hard, but found that the Qing army around his hands was firmly gripped, and he couldn't move. Just when the Qing army raised his knife to cut Ma Cheng, Ma Cheng had already woken up, only to find that he had a nightmare.

Ma Cheng sat up from the bed sweating profusely, only to find that he was lying on the bed, the sunlight from the window paper was letting in, and it seemed that he had slept all day.

Kou Baimen in the outhouse heard a sound from the inner room, quickly opened the door curtain and walked in, and when he saw Ma Cheng waking up, he hurriedly asked, "Is the master awake?" Do you want to drink water? ”

Ma Cheng nodded, Kou Baimen came to the table and poured a cup of tea for Ma Cheng, Ma Cheng took a sip and entered, and then asked, "How long have I been asleep?" ”

"The lord slept for two days, and today is February 20th! It's time! ”

I didn't expect to sleep for two days, and it seems that I was really tired enough.

Ma Cheng asked again, "How is it outside the city?" But did anyone come to me? ”

"There is no news outside the city, Gu Yong came over a few times and said that everything is going well outside the city! However, someone in the palace has seen it, please go to the palace after the master wakes up, the emperor is invited! ”

The emperor looking for himself? Probably asking about the battle outside the city, Ma Cheng nodded and beckoned Kou Baimen to come and dress himself.

At this time, Kou Baimen had already changed his opinion of Ma Cheng, and while lightly dressing Ma Cheng, he asked in a low voice, "Master, do you want lunch?" ”

After Kou Baimen reminded Ma Cheng, he knew that he had slept for two days, and his stomach was already empty, so he hurriedly said: "Okay, just eat here with you, master, I'm already hungry to death, I can eat a pig!" ”

With Ma Cheng's awakening, the entire Guiyang Houfu began to operate, and the back kitchen prepared all kinds of food and sent it to Ma Cheng's eyes like running water. Now Ma Cheng has taken over the family property of Wei Guogong for more than 200 years, although it cannot be said that the rich can rival the country, but the rich rival province is still about the same. Naturally, Ma Cheng will not treat himself badly if he is rich, and his daily meals can be described as extravagant.

When Ma Cheng was enjoying a delicious lunch, the door of the small courtyard opened, and a group of women rushed in, led by a tall young woman, who was Ma Cheng's main wife, Gu Miaoyin.

Gu Miaoyin entered the room and glared at Kou Baimen, then sat opposite Ma Cheng and asked, "The master is awake, this place is very narrow, why don't you go to the concubine's room to eat?" ”

Ma Cheng still has a lot of things to do, where is there a jealousy of the wives and concubines in the house, frowned and said: "No need, I will enter the palace in a while, so I can eat a bite here!" After speaking, Ma Cheng asked again: "Where did you go when I came back yesterday?" Chen Qi said that you all went back to Chaotian Palace. ”

Hearing Ma Cheng say this, Gu Miaoyin hurriedly replied: "That's the case, didn't you say that the city was broken at that time, mother-in-law is big."

People say that if the lord can't keep the city, the women in the family will be martyred, so let the concubine and the aunt who have given birth go to Chaotian Palace! ”

Ma Cheng didn't expect Ma Shiying to have the courage to break the city and play martyrdom. It seems that he is fortunate to have wiped out the Qing army with all his might, or his wife and children will be martyred.

Gu Miaoyin is just sixteen years old this year, which is the age of gossip, and she heard that Ma Cheng defeated the Qing army with more than 10,000 people at Ma Shiying's house, but at that time, Gu Miaoyin was embarrassed to ask Ma Shiying because of her identity. Now when I go back to my home and see my husband, I naturally have to ask carefully.

"Master, did you really lead 15,000 men to defeat 400,000 Tartars?"

Ma Cheng snorted: "Hmph, do you need to talk about this?" The news from outside the city has already arrived, haven't you received it? ”

"We don't have to go out of the door, where can we hear accurate news!" Gu Miaoyin heard Ma Cheng confirm the news, her two eyes were like little stars, she looked at Ma Cheng adoringly and asked, "Master, can you tell the concubine in detail?" ”

Ma Cheng knew that Gu Miaoyin was from a military family and had always been curious about this kind of war, but Ma Cheng still had important things to do today, where could he talk nonsense with these women. Ma Cheng had already finished eating at this time, stood up and wiped his mouth and said, "You ask Gu Yong for details, master, I still have something!" After speaking, Ma Cheng got up and kissed several wives and concubines on the faces, and then went out to the palace.

After Ma Cheng's victory over the Qing army shook the government and the opposition, Emperor Zhu Lunkui immediately sent a little eunuch to pass Ma Cheng into the palace after learning that Ma Cheng had returned to the city, but he didn't expect Ma Cheng to be really tired, so he went home and went to sleep. There was no way for Zhu Lunkui to pass on the holy decree and let Ma Cheng enter the palace when he woke up, and he wanted to reward the great hero Ma Cheng.

The siege of Nanjing was relieved can be said to be entirely the credit of Ma Cheng alone, and Zhu Lunkui's ascension is also the credit of Ma Cheng, if Zhu Lunkui does not give Ma Cheng a suitable reward, not to mention those soldiers who fought bloodily, even the criticism of the government and the opposition is enough for Zhu Lunkui to bear. So after a whole day of careful consideration yesterday, Zhu Lunkui decided to give Ma Cheng a big gift.

Ma Cheng has now become a man of the year in Nanjing, from leaving the home of Confucius Temple, the citizens on the street began to come out to watch Ma Cheng, from Ma Cheng's home to the Xi'an Gate of the palace is only three miles away, but walked for two hours.

Ma Cheng came to Xi'an Gate, and the Jinyi Wei Qianhu who guarded the door saw Ma Cheng coming, and quickly knelt down at the door, shouting: "The last general welcomes the Marquis of Guiyang!" ”

Ma Cheng nodded, and was just about to get off the horse and walk, when the brocade-clothed guard Qianhu hurriedly said: "Master Hou, Your Majesty has a decree to give Guiyang Hou the Forbidden City to ride!" ”

The Forbidden City is the imperial palace, where the emperor lived, and this place is not something that can be accessed casually, let alone riding a horse in it. Now Ma Shiying's status as a cabinet assistant minister and a first-class duke of the country, he has to move honestly and practically in the palace. There were a number of officials who gave their subordinates the Forbidden City to ride horses and sit in sedan chairs throughout the Ming Dynasty, that is, Xu Da and Li Shanchang in the early Ming Dynasty, and Zhang Juzheng in the middle of the Ming Dynasty. So today, the emperor gave Ma Cheng this privilege, which is really a great honor.

However, Ma Cheng didn't know what this honor represented, Ma Cheng watched TV dramas in later generations and gave the Forbidden City a sedan chair to ride a horse, and thought it was just an ordinary reward, so Ma Cheng didn't shirk it, and walked into Xi'an Gate on a horse with a big grin.
