When Zhu Yuanzhang entered the door, he greeted Ji Fei, and shouted in a cordial voice, as if he really just came to drink with an old friend.

But the group of personal soldiers who followed him were all waiting for the battle, and their expressions were tense.

As soon as they entered the door, they dispersed in an orderly manner. The front row squatted slightly, the spear in his hand was slightly raised, and although the crossbow in the back row was not aimed, it had already been wound.

There is only one target to be targeted, of course, it is the Yang girl who is holding a long sword.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang and the others walked all the way from outside the village just now, and when they saw Ji Fei's men outside who were injured by Yang Yunsu and lying down, they naturally understood that something was wrong.

Looking at the broken wooden door and Yang Yunsu standing in the middle of the room with a weapon in his hand, he became more and more confirmed.

"Dashuai, you're here, please take a seat.

Brothers, don't be impatient, it's just a little misunderstanding, and you don't need to use knives and guns. ”

When Ji Fei saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he hurriedly greeted him, and greeted him respectfully and warmly, while comforting the group of soldiers around Zhu Yuanzhang.

"I had some misunderstanding with this Miss Yang, but it's okay now.

This Yang girl is an acquaintance of Meng Shaoxia......"

When Ji Fei said this, he wanted to talk to Zhu Yuanzhang about the ins and outs of this and what had just happened, but in a moment, Zhu Yuanzhang had already crossed his side and hurriedly walked in front of Meng Xiuyuan.

"Meng Shaoxia, you are also here?

When you came to our army, why didn't you send someone to report it?

I've been looking forward to seeing you again for many years. ”

As he spoke, Zhu Yuanzhang had already rushed in front of Meng Xiuyuan, looking very happy and excited.

Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan also smiled at him and said:

"It's been a long time, but you've really done a lot of work.

If you call it again, you will already be called Marshal Zhu. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly shook his head when he heard this, and then simply bowed down and saluted Meng Xiuyuan:

"How dare you, the reason why I can achieve this achievement today is at least half because of the favor of Meng Shaoxia.

If it weren't for your guidance and passing on your set of "Liaoyuan Marksmanship", our uprising would never have gone so smoothly, let alone recruiting his subordinates and commanding troops, and he would have died on the battlefield at the beginning. ”

When Meng Xiuyuan heard this, he didn't accept his flattery, but only smiled silently and shook his head.

As soon as Zhu Yuanzhang entered the house with his own soldiers, Meng Xiuyuan was actually already observing them.

Although these dozen or so personal soldiers seem to be equipped with average equipment, they can be regarded as excellent in terms of physical fitness and cooperation with the enemy, which is not much better than the personal guards around Wang Baobao.

This physical aspect can still be explained by the "Liaoyuan Marksmanship". But this reaction and tacit cooperation in the face of the enemy reflected Zhu Yuanzhang's superb commanding ability.

Sure enough, it is worthy of being a character who can win the country in one bowl at the beginning, and there are indeed some skills beyond ordinary people.

Meng Xiuyuan's "Liaoyuan Marksmanship" just accelerated his rise process and made his early entrepreneurship a little smoother, so he naturally didn't want to take credit.

Between the two of them talking, Ji Fei had already come over and said earnestly:

"Dashuai, Meng Shaoxia, my house is a little messy, even the door is broken, not the place to speak.

And our reunion after a long absence is indeed a rare opportunity, and we should reminisce about the past.

Why don't I ask someone to go down and simply run a table of wine and food, and let's talk while eating? ”

When Meng Xiuyuan heard Ji Fei's words, he wanted to refuse, but before he could speak, he was preempted by Zhu Yuanzhang:

"Yes, since the last goodbye, I haven't seen Meng Shaoxia for so many years.

We don't dare to say that we have the ability to repay his kindness now, but we should treat him to a light meal.

But Brother Ji, don't be busy, let's go to me.

It just so happened that Clumsy Jing came to see me a few days ago and asked her to make two dishes by herself, so that we could have a good meal.

Haha, last time in the ruined temple, we used a meal of beef to trick Meng Shaoxia into teaching us a set of magic skills across the battlefield.

If I entertain him again today, I can't say that there is any benefit. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang said to the end and joked easily.

After saying that, he looked at Meng Xiuyuan with a sincere face, almost not giving Meng Xiuyuan a chance to refuse.

Seeing this situation, Meng Xiuyuan did not disappoint his fun, and nodded to indicate that he was disturbed.

After all, he had just come back from Peach Blossom Island after getting the art of war cheats, and he ran into Zhu Yuanzhang, which couldn't be said to be a fate.

Seeing that Meng Xiuyuan agreed, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ji Fei were both very happy, and immediately ordered their subordinates to prepare horses.

However, before leaving, the thoughtful Zhu Yuanzhang naturally did not forget Yang Yunsu, who was still standing in the field, and took the initiative to say to her:

"This Miss Yang, since you are familiar with Meng Shaoxia, you are also my honored guest.

I don't know if you would like to enjoy the light and come to our banquet to sit down? ”

Hearing this, Yang Yunsu hesitated for a moment but nodded.

Although she hasn't forgiven Ji Fei yet, she doesn't have to do it now.

At this time, if not for anything else, just to finally meet Meng Xiuyuan, she really didn't want to be separated again.

In this way, the four of them settled the matter, simply went out and got on the horse, and left the village surrounded by many rebels under Zhu Yuanzhang.

They marched northwest for more than an hour, until the sun was high and it was nearly noon, when the group stopped in front of an inconspicuous town.

The town was completely controlled by the rebels, and there were many soldiers patrolling outside, but when they entered the town, it was a relatively peaceful and peaceful scene.

Zhu Yuanzhang dismissed the guards around him, turned over and dismounted, and personally led everyone to a quiet courtyard:

"Meng Shaoxia, it's a coincidence.

My wife had been staying in her hometown and the state to take care of the family files of my soldiers.

Recently, my son happened to be one year old, and his mother thought that he hadn't seen me for a long time, so she took this opportunity to take him all the way to visit me.

Whether you appear or later, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat the dishes she cooked herself. ”

When Zhu Yuanzhang entered the courtyard, he was still chatting with Meng Xiuyuan, with a relaxed and happy feeling after returning home.

"Jupachi, you're bringing guests back? Oh, it's Brother Ji, come in and sit, I don't know if these two are ......"

As he spoke, a gentle and dignified woman walked out of the room.

She is wearing inconspicuous coarse cloth clothes, and her face is not as delicate as Miss Yang, Zhou Zhiruo These beauties are so exquisite, but she has an outstanding temperament, with a kind and calm feeling, which makes people feel good when they see it.

"Haha, it's indeed a distinguished guest.

This is the Meng Shaoxia that I often say to you who has a great favor to me, and today I went to Brother Ji's place, and I actually met him. ”

Zhu Yuanzhangle said a word, and then led his wife Ma Shi to introduce Meng Xiuyuan and Yang Yunsu.

After being polite for a while, the future "Queen Ma", who is also respected by future generations, consciously got up and went to the kitchen to prepare meals.

The rest of them sat at a small table in the courtyard, chatting about what they had experienced over the years since they separated.

From that night when they left Huangjue Temple and everyone set out to kill the Tartars, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ji Fei alternately told the story, roughly describing how they had passed all the way in the past five or six years, survived on the battlefield, and so far they had gathered tens of thousands of troops under their subordinates.

This period of family history can be described as wonderful and abnormal, although it is vaguely said, Meng Xiuyuan can still vaguely feel the difficulties and difficulties in it, but it is not easy to succeed.

On Meng Xiuyuan's side, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ji Fei didn't ask much, because they respected and admired Meng Xiuyuan, a great benefactor, and they didn't know so much about the affairs of the rivers and lakes, so they didn't want to bother snooping.

So the topic of everyone's chat gradually narrowed down, and they talked about some things that had happened recently.

"Meng Shaoxia, I heard that in order to cover the evacuation of my Mingjiao high-level on the top of the light, you actually cut off thousands of elite soldiers of the Yuan army on the mountain road with your own strength, and also rushed into the military formation to capture the enemy general......

How did you do it, is this really still the realm of martial arts?

In the Mongolian court, is there still a peerless master like you? ”

Zhu Yuanzhang held back this question for a long time, and then couldn't help but ask it.

He has been fighting in the battlefield for many years, so he naturally understands the power of this army, and knows how powerless a person is in the face of an army.

According to his experience, it is really difficult to guess how unpredictable a person's martial arts are to be able to do such a thing.

In particular, he was very worried that if there was a master of Meng Xiuyuan's level in the Yuan Imperial Court, then he would encounter it on the battlefield in the future, and he would probably be caught off guard, or even directly captured by the opponent.

After all, he, the marshal of the rebel army, does not have so many martial arts masters around him, and some are just his own personal soldiers who have only gradually trained in the past few years, which is far worse than that of the prince of Ruyang.

Fortunately, Meng Xiuyuan's subsequent answer dispelled his concerns:

"Don't worry, it's not me boasting, if there is no accident, except for me and my master Zhang Zhenren, there should be no one in the world who has this ability......

No, Miss Yang has been practicing in retreat for many years, and her kung fu has entered the realm quickly, so she may also have this ability. ”

Meng Xiuyuan was halfway through his words, and suddenly corrected his mistakes, and then couldn't help but look at Yang Yunsu beside him.

But he didn't think about it, this Miss Yang's eyes had been staring at him, Meng Xiuyuan turned his head, the two naturally looked at each other, and Miss Yang immediately lowered her head, shook her head and said softly:

"Meng Shaoxia doesn't want to lift me up, but my kung fu has made progress over the years, but I am far from being able to do what Marshal Zhu said.

I can only say that Meng Shaoxia is such a world-class cultivator, I just cultivate until my hair is white, and I can't catch up......"

Speaking of this, Yang Yunsu looked a little lost in his expression.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Ji Fei have experienced a lot of things in the world, and when they saw that something was wrong between Meng Xiuyuan and Yang Yunsu, the two smiled and glanced at each other, and then Ji Fei said flatteringly:

"Miss Yang, you don't need to be humble, it's normal for a fairy like Meng Shaoxia to be incomparable.

In our opinion, your kung fu is also peerless, and I have so many brothers, but I can't stop you alone. ”

Unexpectedly, Ji Fei's words were slapped on the horse's legs.

Yang Yunsu didn't appreciate it at all after hearing this, but remembered what happened before, snorted coldly and glared at Ji Fei, and didn't answer him.

Ji Fei was a little embarrassed when he saw this, and he didn't know how to speak again for a while. Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was beside him, hurriedly took over the conversation and asked him deliberately:

"That's right, Brother Ji. I haven't heard you say yet, what is the misunderstanding between you and this Yang girl? ”

Ji Fei heard this, nodded, and then told Zhu Yuanzhang about marrying a wife again.

This time, because Meng Xiuyuan, who was familiar with the situation, was on the table, he didn't dare to be too biased with himself, so he had to completely describe the matter relatively objectively and neutrally.

After he finished speaking and his voice fell, Zhu Yuanzhang's expression was a little embarrassed.

It's not that it's difficult for Qing officials to decide family affairs, but if you follow Zhu Yuanzhang's thoughts, there should be nothing wrong with Ji Fei this time. But in front of Meng Xiuyuan and Miss Yang, he couldn't speak so bluntly, so he was a little speechless for a while.

A moment later, a calm and gentle voice floated out from the direction of the kitchen:

"Brother Ji, I think this matter is indeed something you did wrong......

As he spoke, Na Ma came out of the kitchen with a large plate, and there were four or five dishes on the plate, all of which looked very good. As she walked, she continued:

"No matter what you say, that woman is your wife.

Even if the two people don't have the same concept, how can they not just say a few soft words to appease them, and force people to jump into the river. ”

Ji Fei was stunned when he heard this, and then hurriedly nodded yes.

Although he is called "Brother Ji", he has already been Zhu Yuanzhang's subordinate for many years. In addition, this Ma is fair and gentle, quite loved by many generals of Zhu Yuanzhang's family, and has great prestige, Ji Fei did not dare to argue with her.

And this Ma also knew how to speak, and after the meal was brought to the table, he would no longer mention the matter, but changed the topic, and sat down to chat with Meng Xiuyuan and others about some interesting things in Zhu Yuanzhang's daily life.

Because of her joining, the atmosphere at the dinner table was greatly relaxed, and everyone temporarily put aside their previous unhappiness. Even Miss Yang herself still had no expression on her face, but she didn't take the initiative to spoil the fun, just sat there quietly.

After such a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was drinking drunk, suddenly asked:

"Biao'er, why don't you take him out to meet the distinguished guests?"

Ma shook his head when he heard this, and said softly:

"It's not that you don't know, Biao'er is timid and easy to startle, and he will definitely cry when he sees someone.

When the time comes, I can't coax it, won't it disturb the distinguished guests? ”

"It's okay, you just take him out.

I haven't seen him for many days since I've been out this time, so I'm thinking about it. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang patted his wife's arm and said to her again.

Ma had a tacit understanding with her husband, and seeing that he knew so much, he didn't ask any more, so he immediately nodded and got up and walked to the house.

When she came out again, she saw a small child in her arms, her face was slightly thin and dull, and it seemed that she was not in good shape.

And sure enough, as soon as the kid came out and saw Ji Fei's big black face, he was so frightened that he began to cry, and Yi Yi kept screaming.

Ji Fei was a little embarrassed when he saw this, raised his hand and raised his glass and pretended to drink, but in fact, he used this action to cover his face.

Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand to hold the child from his wife, but he was not in a hurry, but swayed and teased the child, and his face was naturally overflowing with strong fatherly love:

"Biao'er, don't cry, it's Dad who is back~"

The little Zhu Biao completely ignored his father, and the louder he cried, the more hoarse his voice was.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little helpless, raised his head and said to Meng Xiuyuan:

"I'm sorry, Meng Shaoxia, Biao'er is indeed like this sometimes.

In the year he was born, our rear happened to be attacked by the Yuan army, and his mother was still hiding in Tibet with the army before giving birth, which inevitably hurt the fetus.

Therefore, the child also fell ill in the mother's womb, his health was not good, and he was a little timid, and he drank many prescriptions prescribed by Lang Zhong to no avail......

Seeing this, Meng Xiu also understood in his heart what Zhu Yuanzhang meant by deliberately holding the child out, and thinking that it would not take much trouble, he stretched out his hand towards Zhu Yuanzhang and said:

"If you don't worry, you can show me the child."

Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally happy when he heard this, and hurriedly handed Xiao Zhu Biao to Meng Xiuyuan, and said respectfully:

"I'm sorry for you, Meng Shaoxia."

Unexpectedly, at this time, a sudden change occurred, and something suddenly happened that no one expected.

This little Zhu Biao has not yet been handed out, but as soon as he glanced at Meng Xiuyuan, he immediately stopped crying, but a smile gradually appeared on his tender face, and his hands were greatly spread, as if he was in a hurry to let Meng Xiuyuan hug him.

When everyone saw this, they were all very surprised, and even Meng Xiuyuan himself didn't expect it.

Ji Fei rubbed his face even harder, and muttered:

"Can such a young child recognize people's ugliness......

When everyone heard what he said, they couldn't help but laugh.

"Haha, it seems that Biao'er is smart and can recognize who the real immortal is." Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy on the side, and his eyes were staring at his son.

After Meng Xiuyuan took this Zhu Biao, he couldn't help but feel very cute when he saw him staring at him with big eyes and not crying.

Immediately, he stretched out his hand and stroked his back, and the pure yang true qi slowly crossed into his body to probe.

Sure enough, seeing that the meridians in the child's body were narrow and blocked, it was a symptom of congenital insufficiency. In the future, if you don't pay attention to maintenance and overwork, it is indeed a premature death.

Secretly said that this child had some fate with himself, and Meng Xiuyuan would not see death or save him, so he increased the output of true qi more and more, allowing pure yang true qi to circulate in his body, and gradually dredge and expand the meridians.

It's just that although Meng Xiuyuan has been cautious, the process is already painful, and the child is too young and very fragile, so he immediately fainted with a snort.

Seeing this, Ma Shi was distressed, and subconsciously wanted to stand up, but Zhu Yuanzhang beside him hurriedly grabbed her, grabbed her, and didn't let her say half a word.

After a while, Meng Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief and said to Zhu Yuanzhang and his wife:

"The child is indeed weaker, but it is not a big deal.

It just so happens that I also see this child pleasing to the eye, and when we meet for the first time, I should always send something to the junior. ”

As he spoke, Meng Xiuyuan continued to convey his true qi while reaching out and pulling it into his arms.
