Gu Miaoyin really panicked when she heard Zhang Guozhu say this, and hurriedly asked, "Uncle, how is this good?" ”

In the past, Gu Miaoyin relied on her own family to contribute a lot to Ma Cheng's army, and she couldn't help but be arrogant at home, but now Zhang Guozhu said that Ma Cheng has gradually left the Gu family, what can I do now?

Zhang Guozhu thought for a while and said, "Niece, it's not your uncle who said you, you're too spicy!" ”

After Zhang Guozhu finished speaking, he pointed to Chang Qing, who was fainting to the side, and said: "Isn't this just a plaything, your father and your brother don't have a few, why do you have to do this, niece?" ”

Zhang Guozhu is right, the atmosphere of the Ming Dynasty is open, and the society is very open to this kind of thing in Longyang, especially in the army, because it is not allowed to bring female dependents, so those generals have to find some clear-eyed pro-soldiers every day to use to go to fire. Gu Miaoyin's Lao Tzu and his elder brother are both generals in Guizhou, and naturally these tunes are indispensable in the army.

Gu Miaoyin now regrets what she did just now, and when she heard Zhang Guozhu say this, she hurriedly asked, "Uncle, how can the niece make Hou Ye change her mind?" ”

"This is simple, dress up this drama and send it to the handsome tent, and the most critical point is to give birth to the handsome man as soon as possible, which is the key to ensuring the status of the niece!"

Zhang Guozhu is right, Chang Qing is only a male pet no matter how beautiful he is, and Ma Cheng's women are also concubines no matter how they are favored, as long as Gu Miaoyin gives birth to a son-in-law, her status is very stable, and she can't be shaken at all.

Gu Miaoyin was woken up by Zhang Guozhu's words, now it is different from before, Ma Cheng used to rely on the Gu family's power to control the army, but now that Ma Cheng's power has become a force, there is no respect for the Gu family as before.

"Niece, thank you uncle for reminding me, please ask uncle to say more good things for niece in the future, niece will not forget uncle!"

Zhang Guozhu nodded and agreed, he didn't help Gu Miaoyin this time because of his friendship with the Gu family, the main reason was that Zhang Guozhu had seen through what Ma Cheng had done, that is, he wanted to be a warlord. Ma Cheng controls the most combat-effective army, coupled with the control of the richest Nanzhili, it is very likely that it will end up in the end. When Zhu Yuanzhang occupied Jiqing back then, wasn't he also a small local warlord with less than 100 soldiers and no more than tens of thousands?

For the sake of his own future and future generations, Zhang Guozhu decided to help Gu Miaoyin, because if Ma Cheng really succeeded, the Gu family's power would rise, and if Gu Miaoyin gave birth to a son-in-law, he would basically be Ma Cheng's legitimate successor.

Now Zhang Guozhu was very satisfied when he heard Gu Miaoyin say this, and he gave a few more instructions before leaving this room.

After Zhang Guozhu left, Gu Miaoyin didn't dare to delay, and let people call Chang Qing who was unconscious, and then regardless of the frightened Chang Qing, he took him back to the barracks with Zhang Guozhu and prepared to apologize to Ma Cheng.

Ma Cheng is really angry today, he used to be good to Gu Miaoyin, one is for the sake of the Gu family's face, and the other is that he has no freshness for a muscular woman like Gu Miaoyin. But now that Ma Cheng has been married to her for two years, that sense of curiosity has long been gone, and all that remains is Gu Miaoyin's rudeness, unreasonableness, and lack of etiquette.

After Ma Cheng returned to the barracks, he sat in the big tent and sulked, and his personal generals saw that the marshal was angry, and they didn't dare to speak one by one, and quietly stood at the door of the big tent and waited for orders. After a long time, Gu Yong whispered at the door: "Handsome! ”

Gu Yong shouted

After a sound that no one spoke, there was no way to scream again, and Ma Cheng asked impatiently, "What's the matter?" ”

"Dashuai, Madame is back, I want to ask to see Dashuai!"

Hearing that Gu Miaoyin was back, Ma Cheng's anger came up again, and he scolded angrily: "Let her go, Lao Tzu doesn't want to see her!" ”

When Gu Yong heard Ma Cheng say this, he looked back at Gu Miaoyin in great embarrassment, and then said, "Madam, the handsome man is still angry, or you can look... ”

Before Gu Yong finished speaking, Gu Miaoyin pushed Gu Yong away and walked in, just as she saw Ma Cheng sitting there sulking.

Ma Cheng didn't expect Gu Miaoyin to dare to break in, so he stood up in fright and asked, "What are you doing?" What do you want? Ma Cheng knew that this wife had kung fu, and it would be a shame to give herself a fat beating.

But to Ma Cheng's surprise, Gu Miaoyin did not beat Ma Cheng, but came to Ma Cheng, knelt down on his knees and said, "Master, the concubine is wrong, please forgive me!" ”

Seeing that Gu Miaoyin had come to admit his mistake, Ma Cheng relieved himself, sat down on the chair again, and then asked, "Say, what mistake did you make yourself?" ”

Gu Miaoyin pouted and said: "The concubine is jealous, and the concubine promises not to commit it again in the future!" ”

Ma Cheng was secretly happy when he heard Gu Miaoyin say this, it was still good in ancient China, the majority of women were deeply poisoned by feudal ideology, and it was a sin not to find a little wife for her husband.

"Since you admit your mistake and forgive you, tomorrow morning you pack up and go home, waiting for the news of your husband's victory!"

Gu Miaoyin listened to Ma Cheng drive her home, this is not good!

"Master, the concubine came out this time because of her mother-in-law's will, and now the lord has no son-in-law, and her mother-in-law will return to Nandu after making the concubine pregnant!"

Ma Cheng really had a headache when he heard Gu Miaoyin say this, this is the front line, I don't know when King Lu's army will come over, and there is time to play boudoir fun with you.

"No, it's nonsense, do you think the war is a game? I'll be back to Nandu tomorrow morning! ”

Gu Miaoyin listened to what Ma Cheng said categorically, angry tears swirled in her eyes, and she said aggrievedly: "Master, the concubine has been married to the master for two years, and there has been no movement, those maids in the house are scolding the concubine behind their backs for the hens that don't lay eggs, and Yun Niang and a few of them are also watching the jokes of the concubine behind their backs, isn't the master not sympathetic to the concubine at all?" ”

Ma Cheng also felt a little reluctant to hear Gu Miaoyin say this, Ma Cheng knew that in this era, the mother is more important than the child, if the woman does not give birth to a son for her husband's family, then she has no status in society at all. But pregnancy is not something that Ma Cheng can do, from marriage to now, he has had sex with Gu Miaoyin countless times, but there is no news at all.

If Ma Cheng's other concubines have no news, it can be said that Ma Cheng's body has a problem, but the other concubines have given birth to three sons for Ma Cheng in a row, and one is in Ruan Lizhen's belly, so it is not Ma Cheng's problem, but Gu Miaoyin's physical problem.

Thinking of this, Ma Cheng had no choice but to say: "Okay, it just so happens that there is no war now, you can stay in the army!" ”

Gu Miaoyin was overjoyed when she heard Ma Cheng say this, but Ma Cheng continued: "But you only have one month, and it is estimated that your husband will have to go to war with the Lu rebel army next month, and it is really inconvenient for you to be a woman in the army, so you must return to Nandu in March!" ”

Gu Miaoyin listened to Ma Cheng like this

said that although he was still a little reluctant in his heart, after thinking about it for more than a month, he could get pregnant no matter how he said it, so Gu Miaoyin nodded and agreed.

Gu Miaoyin is good to live in the camp, from now on Ma Cheng sings every day, and he has to come to Gu Miaoyin several times a day, so that Ma Cheng is about to become a breeding pig. In the end, Ma Cheng made a lot of trouble, and even Wang Xian stood up and tactfully persuaded Ma Cheng to pay attention to his body, after all, Ma Cheng is still young, don't fall ill in this kind of thing.

With the passage of time, the weather in Nanzhili has become warmer and warmer, the Grand Canal has long been navigable, and the official roads in various places have gradually hardened.

On February 16, Qi Biaojia, the governor of Susong in Suzhou Prefecture, received a letter of demonstration from Ma Cheng, Qi Biaojia laughed after reading the letter, and said to the surrounding generals: "This governor has heard that Ma Shiying, the second son, does not study, and is as stupid as a pig. ”

The people around didn't know what it meant, and asked Qi Biaojia what was written in the letter.

Qi Biaojia shook the letter and said: "This Ma Cheng said, he led the army of 110,000 tigers and wolves, and he will come to destroy this governor in the near future, let this governor quickly dismiss you, and then kneel and crawl to Zhenjiang to ask for mercy!" ”

Qi Biaojia read the letter after speaking, and then said: "It is also said that he led thousands of elite soldiers back then, and defeated millions of soldiers and horses of the Manchu Qing Dynasty in one day and one night, and now he only needs to bring 10,000 horses to wipe out all of us!" Do you think this guy is arrogant? ”

Now the folk legend of Ma Cheng's military exploits is amazing, some say that Ma Cheng took 10,000 horses to destroy the Qing army, and said that Ma Cheng will swallow clouds and spit fire, and one person will burn all the Qing troops to death in one morning, anyway, there is no way to say it.

However, what Ma Cheng said today is official news, but these are impossible in Qi Biaojia's eyes.

Qi Biaojia is not a general, but he is familiar with ancient Chinese history and knows that some battles in history are won with less, but those are all based on sufficient preparation in the early stage, the appropriate military transfer of generals in the middle stage, coupled with factors such as the right time, place and people, etc., and finally can achieve the reputation of a certain person's famous general.

Although Ma Cheng is blowing so hard now that everything he says is his own work, Qi Biaojia knows that the direct cause of the real defeat of the Manchu Qing is the bad weather here in Nanzhili.

After Duoduo occupied Nanzhili, he began to send troops to crusade against those prefectures and counties that refused to surrender, and fought as far as Songjiang Mansion, Qi Biaojia also knew these Qing troops very well, and at the same time, Qi Biaojia's Luwang army also received some surrendered soldiers of the Qing army, so Qi Biaojia knew very well the reason for the defeat of the Qing army, that is, he did not accept the water and soil.

This is also one of the differences between Qi Biaojia and Fang Guoan and other generals, Fang Guoan and others only saw Ma Cheng's exploits, but Qi Biaojia saw how lucky Ma Cheng won. If it weren't for the Qing army's disobedience to water and soil, if it weren't for the hot weather in Nanzhili in summer, and if it weren't for the two typhoons in autumn, it would have been hard to say what the outcome of the final Battle of Nanjing would have been.

Because of this, Qi Biaojia led his troops to quickly occupy Zhenjiang, and then marched into Nanjing, because he didn't believe that Ma Cheng was really as powerful as the legend.

But people are not as good as heaven, Qi Biaojia saw Ma Cheng's true face clearly, but Fang Guoan and other generals believed in Ma Cheng's achievements, so no matter how Qi Biaojia ordered, he just dragged it and refused to carry it out.
