Chapter 244: Mother's Love

What Zilong said, every sentence is from the perspective of the imperial court, but it is not for himself, it can be regarded as a real insight, Xu Guangzuo is more and more identified with Zilong in his heart, and he only feels that although this son suddenly ascended to a high position, he can still maintain a pure heart, and only think about how to serve the country, which is really good.

In fact, how did he know that when Zilong said this, he was indeed not greedy for the power of the Hetao, but it was not all for the sake of the imperial court.

His position is more for the sake of the people of the Hetao!

After all, he comes from the bottom, so he naturally knows what kind of virtue the current Ming officials are!

He estimated in his heart that if this group of corrupt officials who only knew how to loot the people's fat and ointment were allowed to enter the Hetao, then it would be the imperial court's rule over the Hetao that the subordinates would overthrow, and if the imperial court heard about it, it would definitely not be able to wipe off its face, and it would definitely be requisitioned by a large army. At that time, the Hetao was bleeding like a river, which Zilong was not willing to see.

However, his crooked attack left an excellent impression in Xu Guangzuo's heart, and when he heard Xu Guangzuo's question, he immediately said: "No! The subordinates are blunt, and they only think of these two points for the time being, and if something is wrong, please correct it!"

"You've already said a very good thing!" Xu Guangzuo first said appreciatively, and then asked, "Then according to your meaning, you are in favor of the autonomy of the Hetao?"

"That's what my subordinates mean!" Zilong nodded and said.

"Then have you thought about it, in this case, the Hetao will become more and more alienated from our Daming! The location of the Hetao is extremely critical, if it finally becomes a springboard for the Mobei Mongolian tribes to attack my Daming, what should we do?"

Xu Guangzuo originally just took this prison to inspect the dragon, but at this time he was talking and talking, but he found that this Hetao was really a big thing, and it was extremely important for the border defense of Daming.

Don't you see that this time it was the Heavenly King who sent troops to raise troops in Hetao, and almost took advantage of the weakness to enter?

If this Hetao is really mastered by the Mongols, then the Ming Dynasty will almost never be at peace, and this matter has been reported to the imperial court to know, I am afraid that at this time, the princes of the imperial court have already quarreled about this matter!

"The subordinates are the generals of the Ming Dynasty, and they are promoted by the tribes of the Hetao as the leader, so they will naturally lead the tribes, and they will be the Ming in their hearts! Not to mention that this time the subordinates will take the Hetao Righteous Army to the west to reinforce the Great Wall and start a war with Ordos, I am afraid that the Mongolian tribes are only hostile to the Hetao, and there is no intention of being close!"

Zilong heard Xu Guangzuo's words, thought for a long time, and then said slowly.

Naturally, he didn't want Hetao to deviate from Daming, and these words were also in his heart.

"Oh!" Xu Guangzuo couldn't help but fall into contemplation when he heard this, and after a long time, he said slowly, "Okay, I will carefully consider your opinion and report it to the imperial court! As for your reward, this time you have made a great contribution, I will also play the imperial court, promote you to join the army in the Hetao, lead the army to garrison the Hetao, return to the tribes of the Hetao, and resist the Mongol invasion! And your old subordinates will also join your command!"

Xu Guangzuo's meaning has the meaning of borrowing flowers to offer Buddha.

After all, what he meant, this Hetao army belongs to the current Hetao Righteous Army, but it was nominally changed to the name of the Ming Dynasty.

In this way, although the Ming Dynasty may not be able to command these Hetao soldiers and horses, these soldiers and horses are nominally subordinate to the Ming Dynasty and must fulfill the duty of guarding the Hetao grassland for the Ming Dynasty.

After listening to this, Zilong thought about it for a while, and then understood, and said happily at the moment: "My subordinates have thanked my lord!"

"Okay, I don't have anything to explain to you for the time being, don't you want to see the horse gang leader, go now!"

Xu Guangzuo chatted with Zilong for a long time, and finally gave Zilong a favor, it is expected that Zilong already has a good impression of himself, and now is not the time for a showdown, so he is ready to let Zilong retreat first, and wait for the news from the court to come, and then decide on the next step!

Zilong achieved the goal of this time, and felt that this Dingguo Gong was really a good boss, so he couldn't help but walk out happily.

At the door, he said to the personal guard guarding the door, and the guard took Zilong and walked to a corner of the camp.

......

Because Ma Fengyue was involved in the advance and retreat of the Hetao rebel army, although he was protected by Xu Guangzuo, he did not suffer too much trouble.

However, Wei Bin was bent on peace, and he had always been afraid of the soldiers of the Hetao rebellion, so he sent the brocade guards he brought to guard Ma Fengyue closely.

Therefore, although Ma Fengyue has not suffered any grievances, she has been detained in a camp for more than a month.

And this tent is not far from Wei Bin's sleeping tent, obviously because Wei Bin is afraid that Ma Fengyue will escape.

When Zilong came here with Xu Guangzuo's personal soldiers, these brocade guards really made it difficult!

Although Xu Guangzuo has a high status, his personal soldiers are also honored in this army, and they are unimpeded everywhere.

It's not that Wei Bin is the prison army, but the Jinyi Guards are the Son of Heaven's pro-army, and their powers are unparalleled, even if Xu Guangzuo is in person, if he wants to visit Ma Fengyue, he also needs the permission of these Jinyi Guards.

This is also the reason why Wei Bin came here with this team of Jinyi guards and asked the Jinyi guards to guard Ma Fengyue.

It's just that after all, there is Xu Guangzuo's order, and Zilong is the hero of this victory, these brocade guards also know that it is impossible to really offend Zilong, so they put him in immediately.

This tent is not big, covering an area of about ten feet, Zilong opened the tent, and when he walked in, he happened to see Ma Fengyue sitting on a cabinet, holding a pen and paper to write and draw.

Seeing Zilong come in, Ma Fengyue raised her head, smiled, and said, "Zilong, are you finally back?

Looking at Ma Fengyue's slightly delicate and haggard face because he missed himself, Zilong felt a pain in his heart, his nose twitched, he almost burst into tears, and said with a choked voice: "Mother, Zilong is here to take you home!"

"Zilong, a manly man, don't cry even if you bleed, don't cry!"

Ma Fengyue wiped away the tears for Zilong, gently took Zilong into his arms, stroked Zilong's back and said.

Zilong was embraced by Ma Fengyue, feeling his mother's love, he couldn't help but hold back his crying and said, "Mother, you have suffered!"

"Why bother?" Ma Fengyue took Zilong's hand and said softly, "There is food and drink here, and no one comes to disturb me! ”

While speaking, Ma Fengyue took Zilong and came to the vicinity of the cabinet.

Zilong raised his eyes, and sure enough, he saw that near this cabinet, there were several large stacks of white paper neatly placed.

On these white papers, they are also full of Ma Fengyue's graceful handwriting, and there is a bit of bold handwriting.

Zilong couldn't help but pick up these white papers to look, only to see that on these white papers, most of them were written with my son Xu Zilong, safe return and so on, and even a large stack of white paper, on which were written Muslim scriptures, although Zilong couldn't understand it, but he could also see between the lines that this was his mother praying for himself.

"I'm in this tent, and there is only the prince, and the Dingguo Guild brings in some news of the war from time to time, but I don't know anything about your going to the Hetao! In desperation, I thought of copying the scriptures in ink, so that the Lord can bless my son Long and come back safely!" Ma Fengyue watched Zilong go to see these scriptures, and said with a chuckle.

After finishing speaking, another scripture was recited, and it was obvious that Ma Fengyue had prayed for more than a month.

"Mother, Zilong is tired, you're worried!" Zilong looked at the stacks of white paper, and knew how worried Ma Fengyue was.

"It's okay!" Ma Fengyue shook her head and said, "Didn't you come back safe and sound?" Come, tell my mother, what did you do when you went to Hetao this time, you can get out of the whole body, and make your mother happy!"

"Okay!" Zilong also knew that Ma Fengyue didn't want the mother and son to meet, and had been immersed in this sad emotion, when he and Ma Fengyue moved all the white paper on the cabinet, and then sat down with Ma Fengyue, and began to talk about his journey to the Hetao.

The trip to the loop lasted more than a month and a half.

Zilong has been begging everywhere since he was a child, and his eloquence is also excellent, at this time, this journey to the river loop is in his mouth, telling the story of the ups and downs, and he was stunned to say it even more magnificently.

Ma Fengyue also followed Zilong's words, and her mind was tightly grasped, rising and falling!

When he heard that Zilong and Na Sikong Xuan had clashed several times and were under siege, Ma Fengyue held Zilong tightly with both hands, and his palms were covered with sweat.

Although she saw that Zilong had returned safely and sat here at this time, she still couldn't help but feel nervous.

Later, when Zilong sent a letter, and many masters gathered in the Hetao, went up to the Black Stone Cliff together, and defeated the Great Heavenly King, Ma Fengyue couldn't help but smile, looking at Zilong's gaze, he was also full of pride and relief.

Zilong spoke so slowly, and Ma Fengyue also sat with Zilong and listened meticulously.

In the blink of an eye, the two chatted for almost an hour, and when it was time to talk about Zilong and Wan'er's engagement, Zilong suddenly shut up, got up and saluted Ma Fengyue respectfully, and said: "Mother!

"Oh?" Ma Fengyue was still immersed in the story of Zilong's ups and downs of the Hetao journey, and suddenly saw Zilong like this, he was stunned for a moment, and after a while, he stretched out his hand, grabbed Zilong, and said, "What's wrong? Zilong? You are all adults, and now you are also canonized as a guerrilla general in the Hetao by the imperial court, although my mother doesn't care much about the level of military rank, but after all, it proves that my son is a dignified man, and in the future, you can make your own decisions about this big and small matter, and you don't have to follow your mother's opinion in everything!"

"But this is a lifelong event for a child! I have to let my mother know!" Zilong said again.
