Listening to the woman's words, Qi Heng said: "After knowing that it is me, my heart is happy?" You really look down on me. ”

As he spoke, Qi Heng slowly bent down, held up the woman's chin with one hand, and lifted his entire face up.

Just through the angle of the moonlight, you can see the delicate skin on her face.

Looking at the delicate face of the woman in front of him, he still satisfied his own aesthetics.

Qi Heng lowered his head slightly, and the woman immediately closed her eyes nervously.

But Qi Heng just sniffed on her, and a milky fragrance came to her face.

The corners of Qi Heng's mouth turned up slightly.

and let the woman go.

Seeing the woman who couldn't wait for Qi Heng's kiss, she felt a little lost in her heart.

"You can sleep here tonight, and being a maid by my side in the future will not insult your innocence."

With that, Qi Heng threw the knife in his hand on the table beside him and walked outside.

Early the next morning.

Qi Heng, who came out of the side room, just opened the door and smelled the smell of rice.

Walking towards the kitchen in the courtyard, I saw a woman busy inside.

"What are you doing?"

Hearing Qi Heng's words, the woman inside hurriedly turned around.

I saw that his delicate white cheeks were covered with black smears everywhere by the charcoal soot.

Looking at her clumsy movements, and the smell of porridge that had been burnt, Qi Heng couldn't help but slightly curl the corners of his mouth, and said, "Don't be busy, the porridge is burnt." ”

Hearing Qi Heng's words, the woman hurriedly lifted the lid of the pot and looked inside.

As Qi Heng said, the porridge boiled in it has been boiled dry and scorched.

Just when she saw that the fruits of her morning's labor were over, and her face was full of grievances, Qi Heng slowly said: "Let's go, come with me to eat, and you won't need to cook in the future." ”

After speaking, he walked towards Zhu Yuanzhang's courtyard.

When Qi Heng walked into the courtyard, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying inside were discussing Qi Heng's side.

Bet on whether Qi Heng will come to breakfast today.

It wasn't until they saw Qi Heng walk into the courtyard that the two suddenly laughed.

Looking at the smiles on the faces of the two of them, Qi Heng knew it, and said angrily: "The two elders really prepared a surprise for me......

When he said 'surprise', he deliberately accentuated his tone.

But before Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying could say anything, Zhu Biao was still bullying Zhu Biao on the side, and he immediately came to the spirit: "Brother! What a surprise! ”

Listening to the words, looking at her bright little eyes, Qi Heng rubbed her head.

When he was about to say something, he immediately noticed that everyone's eyes were already looking behind him.

Qi Heng turned his head to look at the woman behind him and said, "It's not, this is a surprise." ”

After speaking, ignoring Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying, who were holding back their laughter, he walked towards the kitchen.

After a while, Qi Heng, who came out with a bowl of millet porridge, said to the woman who was standing at a loss for what to do, "Go and eat it yourself." ”

Hearing this, the woman ran into the kitchen with her head down.

At this time, Ma Xiuying, who was in front of Qi Heng, suddenly said to Qi Heng: "Jun Tao, what did you play last night, why did you wipe your face like this?" ”

Hearing this, Qi Heng's eyes twitched.

"Sister, you are a woman, is it appropriate to say that?"

Ma Xiuying said: "Didn't you say that you wanted to liberate women? ”

Listening to the conversation between the two sisters, Zhu Yuanzhang on the side couldn't close his mouth happily.

It has always been him Zhu Yuanzhang who was dumbfounded by Ma Xiuying, and now he has finally seen others deflated.

Especially this person is still Qi Heng.

Just then, the clumsy woman in the kitchen finally came out.

Qi Heng retracted his gaze after looking at it and continued to eat the rice in the bowl.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying kept staring at each other.

And still, the little eyes looked up and down curiously at this beautiful big sister who was seeing her for the first time.

Looking at her clumsy appearance, she wrinkled her nose from time to time.

It's very cute.

Meanwhile.

Inside Jinling City.

Bands of officers and soldiers ran around the city.

The property that was once looted by the rebel soldiers is being returned by the soldiers from house to house.

At the same time, a soldier also spread the regulations promulgated by Zhu Yuanzhang yesterday to the ears of these wealthy gentry.

"There is an order from the Shuai Mansion!"

"From now on, in the thirty-three counties of the five states and eight prefectures, all the famous families, the gentry and the rich are equal to the common people, and no soldier shall have the slightest violation."

"Those who violate the order will be punished by military law!"

Listening to these words coming out of the mouths of the soldiers, these rich gentry who had been oppressed for three years said in surprise one by one: "Oh my God! It's changed! Heaven has eyes, and heaven is blessed! ”

At this moment, the soldier on the opposite side said, "There is one more thing to trouble the master." ”

The rich man in front of him was busy laughing and said, "You say, you say." ”

The soldier said: "The marshal has invited all the gentry to the city for a while." ”

Faced with the smile on the soldier's face, the gentry seemed to be frightened during this time, and said, "Thank you, thank you." ”

"But I'm so sick that it's hard to even move!"

Looking at the gentry's excuse, the soldier said, "Don't be afraid, it'll be fine." ”

But the gentry were really bullied too badly, and they shirked it several times.

Seeing this, the soldier's face changed: "No! If you can't walk, we'll carry you in a sedan chair! ”

So saying, he lifted the gentleman into a sedan chair and headed towards the city.

Scenes like this are playing out all over the city.

The marshal's house.

After breakfast, Zhu Yuanzhang and Qi Heng also restrained their smiles after joking and walked towards the city tower.

Not only them, but Ma Xiuying also changed the image of a housewife in the past at this moment, and began to lead soldiers to find those women who were robbed all over the city.

While rescuing them, they also compensated each of them with silver taels.

On the top of the city.

As the news of the city's gift spread in the city, countless people in the city learned the news and began to rush here, wanting to see the excitement.

On the stairs of the castle tower.

There were a row of soldiers standing on each side, and as a famous general ascended the tower, the soldiers shouted loudly: "General Tang has arrived!" ”

"General Xu has arrived!"

"General Chang has arrived!"

"The commander and deputy commander of the A-word battalion have arrived!"

“...........”

As the generals in the army rushed to the city one by one according to Zhu Yuanzhang's orders, the rich gentry who were gathered from all over the city also climbed the city tower one by one under the guidance of the soldiers.

Looking at the soldiers with swords around me, I was so nervous that I couldn't do it.

In these years, who knows when this disaster will befall him.

Just when all the 'spectators' who participated in the ceremony arrived at the scene.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Qi Heng also rushed over.

The soldiers on both sides immediately shouted: "Generalissimo Huwei, Zhu Shuai has arrived!" ”

"General Huwei, General Qi has arrived!"

As they ascended the tower, all eyes were on them.

On both sides of the tower, military flags fluttered in the wind.

In the center of the tower, a number of guillotines are placed in the center.

The executioners around him were all wearing red bandanas and showing their breasts.

The big knife in his hand is also sharpened and breathtaking.

With the arrival of Zhu Yuanzhang and Qi Heng, the originally noisy scene instantly quieted down.

Standing on the high platform of the city tower, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was wearing armor, turned his head with a serious face and said to the people present and the people under the city tower: "A few days ago, the people were frightened. ”

"I've been wronged!"

"Yuanzhang is here to represent hundreds of thousands of righteous soldiers, apologize to the people, and apologize!"

As he spoke, he took the lead in bowing to the people around him.

Everyone on the side also followed Zhu Yuanzhang's movements and bowed to the surroundings.

Looking at the actions of Zhu Yuanzhang and others, all the people present began to discuss again.

And after worshipping the people around him, Tang He, who was beside Zhu Yuanzhang, immediately shouted loudly: "Take Xing prisoner!" ”

With an order, the soldiers on the other side of the city tower immediately escorted Zhu Yong and others to the center of the city tower.

As Zhu Yong and the others walked towards this side, the eyes of all the soldiers fell on them.

You must know that these people were all upstarts in the army before, but now they are tied up with hemp rope.

Those soldiers who had known or heard Zhu Yong's name did not dare to be distracted for a second when they saw this scene.

In front of everyone's eyes, Zhu Yong and the others seemed to know their next result after two days of waiting.

Unexpectedly, he lost his previous fear, and in the face of everyone's eyes, he straightened his waist and walked towards here.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Yuanzhang couldn't help but feel a little distressed in his heart.

Although this Zhu Yong is only his righteous son, he is his henchman in the army.

It is precisely because of these righteous sons and nephews that his control in the army can reach the point where he is now.

It is also the backbone of the army.

This Zhu Yong has always fought bravely and is not afraid of death on the battlefield.

But now, he has to cut him.

The center of the scene couldn't bear it, not to mention Zhu Yuanzhang alone.

Xu Da, Chang Yuchun, even Deng Youde and others, couldn't bear to continue watching.

But when Zhu Yong and the others came to the front, Zhu Yuanzhang's face was straight, and he immediately said, "Supervisor Deacon." ”

"The last general!" Soup and Dao.

"Execution!"

"Yes!"

After speaking, Tang He immediately shouted to the bottom: "Make their backgrounds and resumes, merits and crimes public!" ”

"Obey!"

Immediately, a young general below held rice paper in his hand and read aloud according to the above content: "Dart Banner General Zhu Yong, a person from Fengyang, joined the army at the age of fifteen, and has gone through more than 80 battles. ”

"Killed more than 80 enemies, suffered more than 10 wounds in large and small battles, and made many military exploits!"

"After entering the city, he was arrogant, indulgent, repeatedly bullied the people, and on the third night of the first month of May, he drank and beat the shopkeeper to death!"

As the soldiers below finished reading out, Tang He on the high platform suddenly shouted: "Zhu Yong corrupted the military law, recklessly murdered the people, according to the law, he should be beheaded!" ”

After saying this, Zhu Yong came to the guillotine under the escort of the executioner.

At the same time, the general announced below shouted again: "Hussar deputy general Li Changkong, a native of Fengyang, joined the army at the age of seventeen, and has gone through more than 30 battles, killed 19 enemies, made five war exploits, and was seriously wounded in three places. ”

"After entering the city, he was proud of his achievements, greedy for money, repeatedly embezzled people's property, forced three people's daughters, and caused one woman to commit suicide."

Tang He pronounced the verdict: "Li Changkong raped the people's daughter, murdered the people, according to the law, he should be beheaded!" ”

“..............”

As the crimes of Zhu Yong and others were announced one by one at the scene, they were escorted to the guillotine.

After everyone was escorted, Tang He turned to Zhu Yuanzhang beside him and said, "After the criminal is tried, please show the marshal!" ”

Zhu Yuanzhang paced back and forth, looked at the people downstairs in the city, and said, "Everyone heard it? ”

"These five people have all joined the army since childhood, they are all heroes on the battlefield, they are all children of our Huaixi, and they are all the flesh and blood of our Zhu Yuanzhang! But when they entered the city, they were all overwhelmed, and they were proud of their achievements, and they were evil to the people. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's voice became higher and higher.

"As a result, it harmed the people and itself."

Speaking of this, Zhu Yuanzhang was silent.

After a long time, he said again: "Today, let's cut them all!" ”

"It's to cut a piece of meat on Zhu Yuanzhang's body, it's to cut the problem of the righteous army, if you don't cut it, you can't do it, if you don't cut it, the problem of the righteous army will get bigger and bigger, and if you don't cut it, the entire righteous army will be harmed!"

"Today, let's stand here, stand on this law field, stand on Jinling City, in front of the emperor and the queen of heaven, the sun and the moon, and give a report!"

"Zhu Yuanzhang's righteous army is the head of righteousness, the most benevolent and righteous army in the world, and the people are the heaven of our righteous army! Whoever harms the people will be intolerable, and whoever is not worthy of being a righteous army, let alone a human being! ”

"Come on!"

"Slash!"

With Zhu Yuanzhang's order, the executioner below was still hesitating, and Tang He's eyes glared: "Cut it quickly!" ”

Just as the executioner was about to move the knife, Zhu Yong, who was kneeling on the guillotine, suddenly stood up, craned his neck and shouted in front of everyone: "Brothers! ”

"We can't let our own brother cut off our heads!"

"Brother, go with my brother! How can you die and end up with a whole corpse! ”

After speaking, Zhu Yong gritted his teeth and rushed towards the opposite city.

Rumble!

The sound of Zhu Yong landing sounded.

It landed right in front of the onlookers below.

Looking at the bloody general in front of him, the people were shocked one by one.

At the same time, several other generals on the other side also got up one after another, followed Zhu Yong's example, and stabbed their heads into the city.

One.

Two.

Three.

..........

A whole five bloody corpses were placed in front of the people below.

On the top of the city.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that his heart and liver were torn.

This Zhu Yong is not only brave on the battlefield, but also a sharp sword of his Zhu Yuanzhang.

Now, even before he died, he didn't have half a grudge against him Zhu Yuanzhang.

The knives of his brothers in front of him got up directly and took the initiative to rush down the city tower more than ten meters high.

Even if he died, he couldn't let his brother's hands get his own blood on his hands.

But the more Zhu Yong is like this, the more Zhu Yuanzhang's heart hurts.

Downstairs in the city.

Among the stunned people, Liu Bowen hid in the shadows, quietly observing the scene in front of him.

Today's gift is about the rectification of military discipline.

Yesterday in the lobby of the Shuaifu, he, who had not entered the office, should not have been present, but Zhu Yuanzhang specially allowed it.

And today, there is no reason for him to come again.

But Liu Bowen still came to the scene and witnessed all this.

Everything that had happened in the past few days was constantly replaying in his mind.

Looking at Zhu Yuanzhang's actions today, Liu Bowen admired it in his heart!

This is the true emperor's heart.......

On the castle tower.

Everyone watched all this indifferently, one by one silent.

Looking at the brothers who had made many meritorious deeds on the battlefield, they jumped off the city tower one by one, and their flesh and blood were blurred.

If you can, who wouldn't want their brothers to be together all the time and have fun and talk.

Thinking that these people would never appear in front of him again in the future, Zhu Yuanzhang silently lowered his head.

Under the city.

Liu Bowen, who was secretly observing Zhu Yuanzhang in the crowd, stared at any change in Zhu Yuanzhang's face, trying to see some of his true thoughts on his face.

As the execution at the head of the city was completed, everyone present also left.

The people around them gradually dispersed.

It wasn't until everyone left that Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the mansion, took off all the armor on his body, changed into his once simple clothes, carried a burden in his hand, and walked towards the mourning hall set up for Zhu Yong and them in the city.

Come to the door of the mourning hall.

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at the soldiers on duty at the door, waved his hand silently, and said, "It's all gone." ”

"Yes!"

As the soldiers left one by one, seeing that there was no one around, Zhu Yuanzhang slowly walked into the mourning hall.

Look at the white silk hanging at the door, and the lit oil lamp.

Zhu Yuanzhang put on a white robe at the door and walked in slowly.

Standing beside the corpses of Zhu Yong and other generals, looking at the white cloth covered by them, Zhu Yuanzhang angrily lifted the white cloth and threw it aside.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who had a serious face, looked at the corpses in front of him, thinking that they were once his fellow villagers and dolls that he personally brought out.

For a moment, tears welled up in his eyes.

"We hurt you."

"We hurt you!"

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang lost his majesty in front of others, like a wronged child, crying with grievances on his face.

The voice was more pharyngeal several times.

Squatting beside Zhu Yong and the others, looking at their blurred flesh and blood, Zhu Yuanzhang said sadly: "Let me tell you a word from the heart, which squires and rich men forced us to do it, it was the Yuan Court who harmed us, and they forced us to execute you." ”

Speaking of this, he suddenly broke down emotionally and cried bitterly.

shouted in a louder voice: "Babies, I'm distressed......."

"Why is this happening, why is this happening!"

"Babies....."

For a while, the voice of grief sounded in the mourning hall, and Zhu Yuanzhang's face was covered with tears, and his nose was overflowing.

Even though it was embarrassing, it was sincerely sad.

In front of people, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was never sad or happy, is now in this no-man's land, and finally can no longer suppress the pain and sadness in his heart.

Shows the truest side of being a person.

People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless.

The monarchs and emperors of the past dynasties, even though they were ruthless, but only they knew the grief in their hearts.

Just as Zhu Yuanzhang was crying in the mourning hall, a slight footstep suddenly sounded outside.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was crying bitterly, his face changed in an instant, like a wolf looking back, lying in front of Zhu Yong and others, looking back behind him.

"Who!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's exclamation fell.

Liu Bowen's figure slowly appeared at the door of the mourning hall.

I saw that Liu Bowen was standing outside the door, respectfully bowing to Zhu Yuanzhang in the mourning hall, and said, "Liu Bowen greets the handsome." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that it was Liu Bowen, and hurriedly put away the crying look on his face just now.

But how can he, who cried bitterly in the last second, behave seamlessly now.

Even when talking to Liu Bowen, there was a crying tone in his voice.

Zhu Yuanzhang, who knew that he was out of shape, endured the grief in his heart and said, "What is Mr. looking for us?" ”

said, a little embarrassed, and said: "Now I look ugly, all for you to see." ”

And Liu Bowen, who was kneeling on the ground, said firmly: "No, I didn't see anything ugly, not only that, but today I also saw the king's spirit in Jinling City, and saw the imperial heart hidden by Generalissimo Zhu Yuanzhang!" ”

Listening to Liu Bowen's naked words, Zhu Yuanzhang was shocked, and the grief in his heart just now gradually recovered.

Ignoring the remaining tears on his face, he helped Liu Bowen up and said, "Sir, get up." ”

"Why does the gentleman say that?"

Liu Bowen said bluntly: "If Dashuai didn't have that emperor's heart, Dashuai wouldn't have done it, and even if he did, it wouldn't be so painful." ”

Liu Bowen's words were very simple, but they pointed directly to Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.

Zhu Yuanzhang had already returned to his previous state of mind at this moment, and said, "Sir, this is a glance that can see through us." ”

Liu Bowen said: "What the handsome man did, Berwyn admired it very much, those who have achieved great things are all like this, and those who have achieved great things must also be like this." ”

Since Zhu Yuanzhang decided to do this, although many people have not raised objections to him, no one has agreed with him doing so.

Now when I heard Liu Bowen's words, I didn't know how much it was true or how much it was false, but I was surprised and suddenly said: "Mr. is really our bosom friend." ”

When Liu Bowen heard this, he said again: "However, there is a sentence to tell the marshal." ”

"Sir, please."

Liu Bowen said: "If Dashuai wants to become a real emperor, then suffering like this has just begun, and the great suffering is still to come." ”

Liu Bowen's words made Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly silent at this moment.

Because this sentence was completely said into Zhu Yuanzhang's heart.

He knew, he wasn't unclear, and a punishment like today's was just the beginning.

In the future, if you want to become an emperor and become the king of a country that dominates mountains and rivers, such a thing cannot end here.

This is also something that he Zhu Yuanzhang has been worried about.

After all, he is a human being, a living human being.

He couldn't have been without seven emotions and six desires.

And the reason why those emperors can do such ruthless things is that, like himself today, he hid all his suffering in his heart and behind people.

Once you really want to embark on such a road to heaven.

Then there is no turning back for him.

You can only walk forward.

As for what is ahead, no one knows.

may want to kill his closest relatives and trusts with his own hands, or he may no longer be able to show his true feelings in front of his closest Ma Xiuying.

It may be that like many monarchs, he should be wary of even his own sons.

Human feelings are not only to be accepted.

It is also to be released, to be paid.

However, with whom should he be released, and with whom should he pay.

When there is no one around you who can be fully trusted and unguarded, there is no outlet for release.

And these feelings remain in the body, which will only bring pain.

The most important thing is that the suffering he has endured at this moment is only the beginning, and the great suffering is still to come, endless........

Liu Bowen's words can be regarded as summing up all of this in one sentence.

Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was pondering Liu Bowen's words, Liu Bowen suddenly bowed down to Zhu Yuanzhang again and said: "Dashuai, I can't hide it, the reason why I came here this time is to officially join Dashuai." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was still pondering, was moved when he heard Liu Bowen's words.

I couldn't help asking: "Sir, last time, when we ordered the good chief to go to the house to invite Mr. in person, why didn't Mr. come, even if we tied Mr. stiffly, Mr. didn't want to admire, and now, why did you suddenly want to open it?" ”

Liu Bowen seemed to have thought of Zhu Yuanzhang asking this question, and immediately said: "The last time the eldest brother of the handsome man came to invite him with the letter of appointment full of typos, Bowen was actually moved. ”

"It's just that at that time, I was moved and didn't move, and after being kidnapped by the marshal to this Jinling City, Berwyn still had some complaints about the marshal's arrogance, but later after going to Anfeng Road with the marshal, these grievances were gone."

"And now, when Berwyn sees the king's breath on Jinling City today, Berwyn understands that the handsome man is the emperor destined by heaven, and today, sooner or later, he will be the handsome you."

Listening to Liu Bowen praise himself, although Zhu Yuanzhang had a smile on his face, there was no slightest wave in his heart.

Instead, he pretended to be puzzled and said: "When I was in Anfeng Road, I saw that Mr. had great respect for our brother-in-law Jun Tao, and we still thought that Jun Tao could collect Mr.'s heart for us." ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's words were seamless.

But he said everything he wanted to ask.

What kind of person Liu Bowen is, his mind is also extremely agile.

The moment he heard Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he knew what Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to ask.

However, the identity of the other party can't be said, but he can.

Liu Bowen did not hide it at all, and said frankly: "Marshal, I can't hide it, when Berwen saw General Qi for the first time, he found that the general was full of nobility, and his future was unspeakably expensive. Even if it is compared with the princes of previous dynasties, it is not inferior in any way. ”

"At the beginning, Berwyn was thinking, there is such a person under the command of the marshal, how can the great cause be impossible."

"Famous ministers choose the lord and vote, if there is no marshal in Jinling City today, Berwyn really thinks that the general is the man of destiny."

"Anfeng Road, I believe that the marshal has also seen the talent of the general, just one way, it is enough to compete with the world's heroes, called the genius of the world, unprecedented and not surprising."

"But in all dynasties, there are many geniuses and ghosts, but there are only a few who can really ascend to the position of the Ninety-Five Supreme, why? In the ignorance, but in the humble opinion below, it is the spirit of the king in the Jinling City today! ”

The marshal was in pain in his heart, but he was still able to insist on cutting down the big knife, and for the sake of the great cause of the entire righteous army, he did not hesitate to break his arm to survive. This kind of mental perseverance is the foundation of the king! ”

On the other hand, the general, you are noble, but you have not reached the extreme of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, and what the general did and said when he was on Anfeng Road did not have the decision of the marshal today. What's more, the general was originally the younger brother of the marshal lady, with the spirit of the king of the marshal, supplemented by the talent of the general, how can there be any injustice in this world? ”

"Therefore, Berwyn is ashamed, but the master is ignorant in front of him, and he has come to take refuge today, and I hope that the handsome man can forgive Berwyn for his ignorance regardless of his previous suspicions."

Zhu Yuanzhang, who was standing in front of Liu Bowen at this moment, listened to the sincere words in Liu Bowen's mouth, and was silent in his heart.

Looking at Liu Bowen who was kneeling on the ground, he thought about it in his heart and said: "Sir, please get up quickly, why do you kneel down again, get up quickly, today we don't have a heroic son, but we have such a prodigy as Mr., and God is not thin on us." ”

No matter what Liu Bowen said, Zhu Yuanzhang avoided talking about what Qi Heng said in his mouth.

It was as if he hadn't heard anything about Qi Heng at all.

But in fact, in my heart, I agree with Liu Bowen's view of Qi Heng.

also has a new understanding of Liu Bowen's eyesight in front of him.

After all, I understand Qi Heng clearly, and that is because they have been together for a long time.

But this Liu Bowen just followed them to Anfeng Road, and he actually had such a deep understanding of Qi Heng's heart, which shows that his eyesight is extraordinary.

However, he still opened his mouth and said tentatively: "Since Mr. is now willing to come under our Zhu Yuanzhang, and the ruling party with Mr. Zhu's talent is Qu Cai, we really can't think of any good official positions for a while, so sir, where do you want to serve." ”

Hearing that Zhu Yuanzhang took the initiative to let him choose his position, although Liu Bowen had a plan in his heart, he didn't expect this.

While thinking about what Zhu Yuanzhang meant by this, he slowly spoke: "If the marshal is willing, Berwyn, I want to study under the general." ”

Liu Bowen's words really didn't make Zhu Yuanzhang expect.

to Qi Heng's command.

Just now, he bluntly said that he chose Zhu Yuanzhang between Qi Heng and himself.

Now he said that he would go to Qi Heng's command.......

Although the study he spoke of is also a reason, it is by no means fundamental.

When smart people talk to each other, many times they don't speak so clearly.

And as Zhu Yuanzhang thought carefully, he gradually understood Liu Bowen's thoughts.

Thinking of this, after Zhu Yuanzhang analyzed the pros and cons, he suddenly showed a smile and said: "Jun Tao is indeed extraordinary, especially in governance, which makes us admire it to the extreme, if Mr. wants to serve under him temporarily, it is also a good choice, then do it according to Mr. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang's words did not mention the things he arranged, obviously showing Liu Bowen that I understand what you mean.

These two extremely smart people in the world have planned a shocking strategy in just these words.

And after getting Zhu Yuanzhang's consent, Liu Bowen also knew that it was inappropriate for him to continue to stay here, so he bowed to Zhu Yuanzhang without saying anything, everything was silent, and slowly retreated outward.

Looking at Liu Bowen's retreating figure, the smile on Zhu Yuanzhang's face gradually disappeared.

stared thoughtfully at Liu Bowen's departing back, touching this Mr. Liu.

Liu Bowen is extremely smart, he has seen through everything and everyone, but he doesn't know that he is also being seen through by others quietly and silently.

And this person is still Zhu Yuanzhang, who has the air of an emperor in his mouth!

A person with the aura of an emperor, how can he really see through.

..............

That night.

Liu Bowen came alone to the main courtyard of the Welcome Building and the Lixian Pavilion.

As soon as he came to the door, he was stopped by Chen Du at the gate of the courtyard.

"Next, Liu Bowen, I want to see the general, please let your Excellency know."

Looking at the polite Liu Bowen in front of him, Chen Du said expressionlessly: "Wait a minute." ”

With that, he left another guard behind and turned around and walked towards the courtyard.

In the main house.

Chen Du looked at Qi Heng, who was reading a book, and the woman beside him who was pouring tea for him all the time, and slowly came to Qi Heng's front and said, "My lord, Liu Bowen asks to see you." ”

Qi Heng, who was reading a book, said without raising his head: "Let him come in." ”

"Yes."

Soon, Liu Bowen walked into the house under the leadership of Chen Du.

Looking at Qi Heng, who was still sitting on the chair reading at the moment, Liu Bowen respectfully bowed to Qi Heng and said, "Liu Bowen has seen the general. ”

Qi Heng picked up the cup full of tea beside him, took a sip and said, "Get up." ”

"Yes."

"Say what you're looking for me." Qi Heng said casually.

Liu Bowen didn't care about Qi Heng's snubbing behavior, slowly took out a roll of rice paper in his hand, and said respectfully: "I want to see the general today, I really have something to ask for, but there is really nothing around Bowen that the general can see. ”

Qi Heng, who heard this, was interested.

He slowly put the book in his hand on the table, and looked at the maid next to him, who was a little stupid, but soon reacted again, hurriedly came to Liu Bowen's side, and unfolded the scroll in his hand with him.

As the scroll opened, a young man sketched in black ink slowly appeared in front of him.

The man in the painting is dressed in brocade, his body is slender, and the heroic spirit and majesty between the eyebrows are vividly outlined.

Use the distance to control, and reasonably express the meaning of his words.

The man in the scroll stands with his hands in his hands, like mountains and rivers bowing his head behind him.

Looking at the man in this painting, Qi Heng smiled slightly: "You said that the person in this painting is me?" ”

Liu Bowen said with a smile: "Only a general has such a spirit in this world." ”

Qi Heng smiled when he heard this, and said to the maid beside Liu Bowen: "Look, does this look like me?" ”

The maid looked down and said, "The adult is better looking than in the painting." ”

Qi Heng was stunned for a moment, then turned to laughter.

Liu Bowen on the side also smiled lightly.

Qi Heng waved his hand and said, "Take it." ”

After speaking, he sat back in his chair, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Now you can talk about it, what is the matter with me." ”

Hearing this, Liu Bowen hurriedly restrained the smile on his face, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and said: "Bowen is not talented, he wanted to serve the imperial court at the beginning, but the Yuan court turned a blind eye to my loyalty, and he still had to take this head to please that Fang Guozhen." ”

Since then, it has been seen that the fall of the Yuan court is a foregone conclusion. Now that he has arrived in Jinling City, he sees that the marshal is a generation of heroes, and the talent of the general is also shocking the past and the present, so Bowen is brave and wants to take refuge in the general, and take any official position under the command of the general, and learn from the general. ”

Listening to Liu Bowen's words and looking at his lowered head, Qi Heng was quite amused, and said thoughtfully: "You want to take refuge under me?" I remember that you should have a lot to do with that Li Shanchang, right? Now he is in charge of the political affairs of Jinling Mansion, isn't it just right to take refuge in him? ”

When he heard Qi Heng say the name Li Shanchang, Liu Bowen's eyes suddenly showed a hint of loss.

Of course, it wasn't because he was jealous of Li Shanchang's current status.

But he didn't expect that Qi Heng, who was almost perfect in his eyes, had only one Li Shanchang in his eyes.

Obviously, in his opinion, Qi Heng was able to blurt out the name Li Shanchang, which shows that he has been thinking about Li Shanchang in his heart.

At the same time, doesn't it also show that he has always regarded Li Shanchang as an opponent?

However, because Liu Bowen kept his head down at this time, Qi Heng did not notice the change in his eyes.

And he, Liu Bowen, also followed Qi Heng's words and said directly: "The good elder brother is naturally rising with the big marshal now, but although Berwen is clumsy, he can also see that today's righteous army, in addition to the big marshal, is headed by the big general. ”

"Besides, Berwyn admires the talent of the general, and he dreams of learning from the general, and hopes that the general can be fulfilled."

Qi Heng nodded casually, and after thinking about it, he said directly: "This time I returned to Jinling City, the handsome man said, let me rectify the rule of officials and rectify military discipline, and I have also thought about this before, since you Liu Bowen want to find an official and a half-position under my command, it just so happens that I am still thinking about setting up an inspectorate to supervise hundreds of officials." ”

"In this way, you Liu Bowen will come to my hands and be the first imperial history of the left capital."

Hearing this, Liu Bowen naturally would not refuse, and immediately said: "Liu Ji, thank you General!" ”

Qi Heng waved his hand and motioned for Liu Bowen to step back, while he picked up the scroll again and read it seriously.

And after Liu Bowen left, the maid still held up the figure scroll in her hand, and said hesitantly: "My lord, since you like it so much, do you want to hang it up?" ”

Hearing this, Qi Heng glanced at him expressionlessly and said, "I'm here, it's not enough to look in the mirror every day, or do you think I'm not as good as the painting." ”

The maid suddenly didn't know what to say.

"Go, put it away."

The maid nodded obediently, turned around and walked out with the painting.

Looking at the back of her leaving, Qi Heng shook his head helplessly, and chuckled: "I'm really lively here, all kinds of cows, ghosts, snakes and gods are here." ”

With that, he looked at the book in his hand.

As the maid left, Chen Du at the door slowly walked in, and said respectfully to Qi Heng in front of him: "My lord, there is news over there, Liu Bowen took the initiative to meet the handsome man in the mourning hall after watching the ceremony this morning before coming to you. ”

Qi Heng, who heard this, only thought about it slightly, then waved his hand and looked at the book again.

And Chen Du bowed respectfully to Qi Heng and retreated silently.

Inside the house.

When the maid came back again, Qi Heng seemed to suddenly remember something and said, "By the way, I don't know what your name is." ”

The maid spoke: "The slave's real name is Liu Junya, and her parents call her slave Junya at home. ”

Qi Heng nodded, and once again immersed himself in the sea of books.

Liu Junya, who had lowered her head for a long time, saw that Qi Heng no longer paid attention to her, her nose wrinkled, and she was a little angry.

Late at night.

In a house in Jinling City.

Some of the generals of the rebel army gathered here, and one by one they gathered around the table with red faces, and the table was full of wine glasses and dishes.

At this time, a general said with some anger: "Although Zhu Yong is not so familiar with us, he is also the righteous son of our handsome, didn't he just kill a boss who sold rice?" The marshal actually forced him to jump off the tower, thinking about the bravery of Zhu Yong and his lieutenant on the battlefield, he really felt a little worthless. ”

As soon as the general's words came out, another general on the side suddenly pulled him down and said, "What nonsense are you talking about here!" Dashuai is also something you can talk about casually? ”

Looking at the frightened look on the other party's face, the general who had just spoken was also nervous, and seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly closed his mouth.

And at this time, a young general opposite him said angrily: "What are you pulling him to do, then Zhu Yong's death was already very wronged, what can't be said, but, you can't blame the big handsome for this, the big man was also forced to be helpless, didn't you find out?" When Zhu Yong's accident happened, he was still before the handsome went out, but why was he so determined to deal with Zhu Yong after he came back from Anfeng Road this time? ”

"To be honest, I think there must be something that some villain said in the ear of the handsome, otherwise he wouldn't have to force Zhu Yong and them to jump off the building."

I had just persuaded the man, and when he saw that the young general opposite was so bold, he couldn't help but say: "I said Lan Yu, you better talk less, now that the commander has made up his mind to rectify military discipline, why should we talk nonsense at this time and make trouble?" ”

But at this moment, Lan Yu obviously drank a little too much, and said without any concern: "I, Lan Yu, said it today, what's wrong?" Da Shuai didn't say that he wanted to deal with Zhu Yong before leaving, but he went to Anfeng Road and made up his mind when he came back, didn't he Qi Heng speak in Da Shuai's ear? ”

"Hmph, when Dashuai was canonized, I didn't accept him Qi Heng, why can his Qi Heng's merits be above Tang Shuai, Xu Shuai and my brother-in-law? Speaking of war, aren't we, the generals, fighting bravely to kill the enemy? He is a literati in Qi Heng, except for opening his mouth to say two words of, what is the use, if he is on the battlefield, my blue jade can slaughter him ten! ”

Looking at Lan Yu, who had already begun to talk nonsense at this time, without the slightest measure, he suddenly got up and prepared to leave.

But Lan Yu on the opposite side suddenly shouted: "Deng Youde, what are you going to do!" What, are you afraid of him Qi Heng? Thanks to you, Deng Youde is still the deputy general of the handsome seal, and you are not as good as me as a thousand households! ”

Deng Youde is young, so although he has a high official position, he likes to mingle with these people of the same age, and he doesn't have so many scruples when he drinks.

But even if he didn't care so much about the level of these military ranks, when he heard Lan Yu say this at this moment, he couldn't help but shout: "Lan Yu! I'll tell you one last time, now my name is Deng Yu, and I am named by Dashuai! Besides, you've drunk too much now, don't blame the brothers for not reminding you that gibberish is going to be bad! ”

After speaking, he picked up the subordinate Qian Zong next to him and walked out of the house together.
