Chapter 142 Zhu Yuanzhang's Family Banquet

Chapter 142 Zhu Yuanzhang's Family Banquet
When Zhu Yuanzhang entered the door, he greeted Ji Fei with a friendly voice, as if he was really just looking for an old friend for a drink.

But the group of personal soldiers following behind him were all ready to fight, with tense expressions.

As soon as they entered the door one by one, they dispersed in an orderly manner.The front row squatted slightly, holding the long spear slightly in their hands, and although the crossbow in the back row was not aimed, it had already been wound.

There is only one target to be guarded against, and of course it is Miss Yang who is holding a long sword.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang and others walked all the way from outside the village just now, and saw Ji Fei's subordinates outside who were injured by Yang Yunsu and lay down on the ground, so they naturally understood that something happened.

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

"Master, you are here, please sit down quickly.

Brothers, don't be impatient, it's just a misunderstanding, there is no need to use a knife or a gun. "

When Ji Fei saw Zhu Yuanzhang, he hurried up to greet him respectfully and warmly, while comforting the soldiers around Zhu Yuanzhang.

"I had some misunderstandings with this Miss Yang, but it's all right now.

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

When Ji Fei said this, he wanted to tell Zhu Yuanzhang the ins and outs of this and what happened just now, but in a short while, Zhu Yuanzhang had already passed his side and hurriedly walked in front of Meng Xiuyuan.

"Meng Shaoxia, are you here?
Why didn't you send someone to inform you when you came to our army.

For many years, I have been looking forward to seeing you again. "

While speaking, Zhu Yuanzhang had rushed to Meng Xiuyuan with a very happy and excited expression.

Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan also smiled at him, and said:
"Long time no see, you have really done a great job.

If you call him again, he will be called Marshal Zhu. "

Zhu Yuanzhang shook his head quickly when he heard the words, and then simply bowed to Meng Xiuyuan and said:

"How dare you, at least half of the reason why I have achieved what I have achieved today is because of your kindness, Meng Shaoxia.

If it weren't for your guidance and passing on your "Liaoyuan marksmanship", our uprising would never have been so smooth, let alone recruiting subordinates and commanding troops, perhaps we would have died on the battlefield from the very beginning. "

Hearing this, Meng Xiuyuan didn't accept his flattery, and just shook his head with a silent smile.

From the moment Zhu Yuanzhang brought his soldiers into the house, Meng Xiuyuan had actually been observing them.

Although these dozen or so guards seemed to be well-equipped, they could be considered excellent in terms of physical fitness and coordination with the enemy, not much worse than the guards around Wang Baobao.

This aspect of the body can still be explained by the "Liaoyuan marksmanship".But this reaction to the enemy and tacit cooperation reflect Zhu Yuanzhang's superb commanding ability.

Sure enough, he is indeed a character who can conquer the world with just one bowl at the beginning, and indeed has some abilities beyond ordinary people.

Meng Xiuyuan's "Liaoyuan Spearmanship" only accelerated his rise and made his early start-up a little smoother, so naturally he didn't want to take credit for it.

While the two were talking, Ji Fei had already moved over and said attentively:

"Marshal, Meng Shaoxia, my room is a bit messy, even the door is broken, so it's not a place to talk.

And it is indeed a rare opportunity for us to reunite after a long absence, so we should catch up on the old days.

How about I ask someone to go down and simply arrange a table of wine and food, and let's chat while eating? "

Hearing Ji Fei's words, Meng Xiuyuan wanted to refuse, but before he could speak, Zhu Yuanzhang preempted him:

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

We dare not say that we are capable of repaying his kindness now, but it is appropriate to treat him to a light meal.

But brother Ji, don't be too busy, you'd better go to my place.

It just so happened that Zhuojing came to visit me recently, and asked her to make two dishes with her own hands, so we can have a good meal.

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

It may be of any benefit to invite him again today. "

At the end of Zhu Yuanzhang's words, he easily joked.

After saying that, he looked at Meng Xiuyuan with a sincere expression, hardly giving Meng Xiuyuan a chance to refuse.

Seeing this situation, Meng Xiuyuan didn't disappoint, and nodded to express his trouble.

After all, he just came back from Peach Blossom Island to get the secret book of the art of war, and then ran into Zhu Yuanzhang, so it may be a matter of fate.

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

But before leaving, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was thoughtful, would not forget Yang Yunsu who was still standing in the field, and said to her on his own initiative:

"Miss Yang, since you are acquainted with Meng Shaoxia, you are also my distinguished guest.

I don't know if you would like to honor me and come to our banquet for a seat? "

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

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

At this time, for no other reason than to finally meet Meng Xiuyuan, she really didn't want to just separate.

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

Traveling all the way to the northwest, after walking for more than an hour, until the sun was high and the sky was almost noon, the group of people stopped in front of an inconspicuous small town.

This town has been completely controlled by the rebels, and there are many soldiers patrolling outside, but when they enter the town, it is quite a peaceful and peaceful scene.

Zhu Yuanzhang dismissed the guards around him, dismounted from his horse, and personally led the crowd to a quiet courtyard:

"Meng Shaoxia, what a coincidence.

My wife had always stayed in my hometown and the state, taking care of the families of my soldiers.

That is, in recent days, my son happened to be one year old, and his mother thought that she hadn't seen me for a long time, so she took this opportunity to take him to visit me from a long distance.

Whether you show up or show up later, I'm afraid you won't be able to eat the dishes cooked by her. "

When Zhu Yuanzhang was about to enter the yard, he was still chatting with Meng Xiuyuan about the family affairs, with a relaxed and happy feeling on his body after returning home.

"Chongba, you brought the guests back? Oh, it's Brother Ji, come in and sit down, and I don't know who these two are..."

While speaking, a gentle and dignified woman walked out of the room.

She was wearing inconspicuous coarse clothes, and her face was not as delicate as beauties like Miss Yang and Zhou Zhiruo, but she had an outstanding temperament, with a kind and calm feeling, which made people feel good when they saw her.

"Haha, you are indeed a distinguished guest.

This is the Meng Shaoxia whom I and you often tell me has been of great kindness to me. I went to Brother Ji's place today, and I actually met him. "

Zhu Yuanzhang said something happily, and then brought his wife Ma Shi to introduce Meng Xiuyuan and Yang Yunsu.

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

The rest of them were sitting at the small table in the courtyard, chatting about what they had experienced in the past few years since they parted.

From the time they left the Huangjue Temple that night and everyone set off to kill the Tartars, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ji Fei alternately narrated how they survived in the past five or six years, until now In this way, his subordinates gathered tens of thousands of troops.

This period of family history can be described as wonderful and unusual. Although it is said in a cryptic manner, Meng Xiuyuan can still vaguely feel the difficulties and difficulties everywhere in it. The only thing is that success does not always come easily.

When it came to Meng Xiuyuan's side, Zhu Yuanzhang and Ji Fei didn't ask any more questions, because they respected and admired Meng Xiuyuan as a great benefactor, and they didn't know much about Jianghu affairs, so they didn't want to disturb the prying eyes.

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

"Meng Shaoxia, I heard that in order to cover the retreat of our Mingjiao high-level officials on the top of the light, you cut off thousands of elite soldiers of the Yuan army on the mountain road by yourself, and even rushed into the army formation to capture the enemy general...

How did you do it? Is this really the domain of martial arts?

In the Mongolian court, are there still peerless masters like you? "

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

He has fought in the battlefield for many years, so he naturally understands the power of this army and how powerless a person is when facing an army formation.

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

In particular, he was very worried that if there were experts of Meng Xiuyuan's level in the Yuan court, he might be caught off guard if he met on the battlefield in the future, or even be captured directly by his opponent.

After all, as the marshal of the rebel army, he didn't have so many martial arts expert guards around him, and some of them were just personal soldiers who he had gradually trained in the past few years, which was far worse than that of Prince Ruyang.

Fortunately, Meng Xiuyuan's subsequent answer dispelled his worries:
"Don't worry, it's not just me boasting, if there is no accident, there should be no one in the world with this ability except me and my master Zhang Zhenren...

No, Miss Yang has practiced diligently in seclusion these years, and her kung fu has improved rapidly. Maybe she also has this ability. "

In the middle of speaking, Meng Xiuyuan suddenly corrected his mistake, and then couldn't help but look at Yang Yunsu beside him.

But I didn't expect that Miss Yang's eyes had been fixed on him all the time. When Meng Xiuyuan turned his head, the two naturally looked at each other and looked at each other. Miss Yang immediately lowered her head in shame, shook her head and said softly. said:
"Meng Shaoxia don't want to praise me, I have improved my skills over the years, but I am far from reaching the level that Marshal Zhu said.

It can only be said that Meng Shaoxia has such an unrivaled cultivation, even if I cultivate until my hair turns white, I may not be able to catch up..."

Speaking of this, Yang Yunsu looked a little disappointed.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Ji Fei have experienced many things in the world, and when they saw something wrong between Meng Xiuyuan and Yang Yunsu, they looked at each other with a smile, 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 inferior.

In our opinion, your kung fu is also peerless. I have so many brothers, but none of them can stop you alone. "

Unexpectedly, Ji Fei's words hit the horse's leg.

After hearing this, Yang Yunsu didn't appreciate it at all. On the contrary, he remembered what happened before, snorted and glared at Ji Fei, but didn't answer him.

Seeing this, Ji Fei was a little embarrassed and didn't know how to speak again.Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang who was beside him hurriedly took over the conversation, and asked him intentionally:
"By the way, Brother Ji. I haven't heard from you yet. What is the misunderstanding between you and Miss Yang?"

Ji Fei nodded when he heard the sound, and then told Zhu Yuanzhang about marrying his wife again.

This time, because Meng Xiuyuan, who was familiar with the situation, was at the table, he didn't dare to be too partial to himself, so he could only describe the matter in a relatively objective and neutral way.

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

It's not that it's hard for an upright official to decide on housework, but that according to Zhu Yuanzhang's thinking, Ji Fei should have done nothing wrong this time.But in front of Meng Xiuyuan and Miss Yang, he couldn't speak so bluntly, so he was speechless for a while.

After a while, a calm and gentle voice first floated from the direction of the kitchen:
"Brother Ji, I think this is indeed something you did wrong..."

While talking, Mrs. Ma came out of the kitchen holding a big plate. There were four or five dishes on the plate, all of which looked very good.As she walked, she went on to say:

"No matter what the woman says, she is still your wife.

Even if the two people disagree, why can't they say a few soft words to appease them first, so as not to force them to jump into the river. "

Ji Fei was taken aback when he heard the sound, then hurriedly nodded in agreement.

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

And this Mrs. Ma also knows how to talk. After the food was served on the table, he stopped mentioning this matter and changed the topic. He sat down and chatted 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 eased, and everyone put down their previous unhappiness for the time being.Even though Miss Yang herself still had no expression on her face, she didn't take the initiative to say anything to spoil the fun, she just sat there quietly.

After such a long while, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was drinking heavily, suddenly asked:
"What about Biao'er, why didn't you take him out to meet the distinguished guests?"

Mrs. Ma shook his head when he heard the sound, and said softly:
"It's not like you don't know that Biao'er is timid and easily startled, and will definitely cry when he sees a stranger.

At that time, I can't be coaxed, didn't I disturb the distinguished guests. "

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

I haven't seen him for many days when I went out this time, so I'm thinking too hard. "

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

Mrs. Ma and her husband had a tacit understanding. Seeing that he knew so well, there must be a deep meaning, so he didn't ask any more questions, and immediately nodded and got up and walked into the house.

When she came out again, she saw a small child in her arms, her face was a little thin and dark yellow, it seemed that she was not in good health.

And sure enough, as soon as the child came out and saw Ji Fei's big black face, he was so frightened that he started crying and babbling non-stop.

Seeing this, Ji Fei was a little embarrassed, and raised his hand to raise his glass to pretend to be drinking, but in fact he used this movement to cover his face.

Zhu Yuanzhang stretched out his hand to hug the child from his wife, but he was not in a hurry, instead he teased the child carelessly, with a strong fatherly love that naturally overflowed on his face:
"Biao'er, don't cry, it's Daddy who's back~"

That little Zhu Biao completely ignored his father, the louder he cried, his voice became hoarse.

Seeing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little helpless, and raised his head to apologize to Meng Xiuyuan:
"I'm sorry, Meng Shaoxia, Biao'er is indeed like this sometimes.

In the year when he was born, we happened to be attacked by the Yuan army behind us, and his mother was still hiding in Tibet with the army before she gave birth, which inevitably hurt the fetal gas.

Therefore, the child suffered from the root of the disease in the mother's womb. He is in poor health and a little timid. He drank a lot of prescriptions prescribed by Lang Zhong and it didn't work..."

Seeing this, Meng Xiuyuan also understood Zhu Yuanzhang's intention to take the child out, and it didn't take much trouble to think about it, so he stretched out his hand to Zhu Yuanzhang and said:
"If you don't worry, you can show the child to me."

Zhu Yuanzhang was naturally happy when he heard the sound, and hurriedly handed the little Zhu Biao to Meng Xiuyuan, and said respectfully:
"Excuse me, Meng Shaoxia."

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

The little Zhu Biao hadn't been handed out yet, but just glanced at Meng Xiuyuan, and immediately stopped crying, but a smile gradually appeared on her tender face, and her hands were spread wide, as if eager to be hugged by Meng Xiuyuan.

Everyone was very surprised when they saw this, even Meng Xiuyuan himself did not expect it.

Ji Fei even rubbed his face hard twice, and murmured:
"Such a young child, can he recognize the ugly and handsome people..."

Everyone couldn't help laughing out loud after hearing his words.

"Haha, it seems that Biao'er is smart enough to recognize who is the real god." Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy at the side, his eyes fixed on his son.

After Meng Xiuyuan took Zhu Biao, seeing his big eyes staring at him without crying, he couldn't help feeling very cute.

Immediately, he stretched out his hand and stroked his back, and the pure yang zhenqi slowly entered his body to explore.

Sure enough, the meridians in this child's body were narrow and sluggish, which was a symptom of congenital insufficiency.If you don't pay attention to maintenance and overwork in the future, it is indeed a sign of premature death.

Secretly thinking that this child has a certain fate with him, Meng Xiuyuan would not wait for death, so he increased the output of zhenqi, allowing pure yang zhenqi to circulate in his body, gradually dredging and expanding the meridians.

However, although Meng Xiuyuan was careful, the process was already painful, and the child was too young and very fragile, so he immediately passed out with a painful snort.

Seeing this, Mrs. Ma felt distressed, and subconsciously wanted to stand up, but Zhu Yuanzhang who was beside her hurriedly grabbed her and held her tightly, preventing her from saying 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's not a big deal.

Coincidentally, I also think this child is pleasing to the eye. When we meet for the first time, I should give something to the younger generation. "

As he said that, Meng Xiuyuan continued to convey his true energy while reaching out his hand to take it out of his arms.
