Chapter 950 Magui Made a Choice
On the evening of December 28th, outside Qufu City, Shandong Province, Ma Gui received a special letter. The person who delivered the letter was a clerk who claimed to be a close minister of Xiao Ruxun. He handed a letter to Ma Gui and asked him to read it alone. Then left.

Ma Gui was very surprised that Xiao Ruxun sent him a letter at this stall, thinking that there was something important to tell him to do, so he opened the letter and read it, and was so shocked that he almost fell off his chair.

Xiao Ruxun proclaimed himself emperor...

He asked Ma Gui if he was willing to support him, and if so, he would arrest Mei Guozhen and put three arrows in the camp. After completing this, Xiao Ruxun would restore Ma Gui's reputation and free activity status, and The relatives were reunited, and they were rewarded with official positions and titles, and became a general of the new dynasty, an upright commander.

Ma Gui swallowed and took a while to react.

There is no difference between this letter and the threatening letter. It lists the rewards for being willing to do this thing, but does not say what will happen if you don’t want to do it, but it is very clear that if you don’t want to do it, it will be miserable.

Put three snapping arrows in the camp.

That is to say, he has been targeted?

The news came so suddenly, Ma Gui's heart was pounding, and he couldn't believe that his little brother who was passionate about serving the country actually proclaimed himself emperor.

Daming gone?

After occupying Qufu, he was left to lead the troops. Xiao Ruxun said that he was the most reliable, so he was used to monitor those Kong family members. In addition, the army will soon gather in the capital. It would be a bad situation if they recognized them, after all there were still many Ma family children in the army, and although it was safe to follow Zhao Hu's vanguard army, it was not that safe.

Staying with Mei Guozhen, one piece of paper and one military force are optimistic about the descendants of the saints in Qufu City for Xiao Ruxun, in case of emergencies.

Both Ma Gui and Mei Guozhen happily accepted this task and stayed in Qufu to wait for the good news of the world's stability and the day when they could restore their reputation, but who knew that such a thing would happen.

God, what happened in the capital?
Magui didn't know at all.

But he knew one thing.

You have to make a decision yourself, and you have to be quick, you can't wait.

He knew Mei Guozhen, and it seemed that Xiao Ruxun knew it well, so Xiao Ruxun wrote to himself instead of Mei Guozhen.

Wrote this letter with a hint of threat.

Ma Gui knew that Xiao Ruxun was not joking, absolutely not, so he had no extra choice and no more time to think.

He has to make a choice about his own future, the situation of his clansmen, and the safety of Mei Guozhen.

After calming down for a quarter of an hour, Magui made a choice.

He sent someone to invite Mei Guozhen.

Mei Guozhen had just finished dealing with some things and was about to go to bed when he was invited into Magui's military tent by someone sent by Magui.

"General Ma, what's the matter? What do you want from me...you..."

Just as Mei Guozhen walked into the military tent and saw Ma Gui, a bright saber lay across his neck, and three soldiers rushed forward and tied Mei Guozhen tightly.

Mei Guozhen turned pale with fright, and after a long pause, he looked at Ma Gui angrily.

"Magui, what are you doing?"

Ma Gui sighed slightly, then frowned and said, "Kesheng, don't blame me, I didn't expect such a thing to happen."

"what?"

"Ji Xin, proclaim yourself emperor."

Ma Gui told Mei Guozhen about it with some difficulty.

Mei Guozhen was stunned for a while with his mouth open.

"Called... proclaimed emperor?"

Mei Guozhen couldn't believe what he heard: "Do you know what you are talking about?"

"I know, that's why I called you here."

Ma Gui said: "Ji Xin knows you won't agree with him, so let me act early and arrest you, Ke Sheng, don't blame me, I can't help it."

"Arrest me? I...he became emperor? He became emperor? How could he become emperor? How could Xiao Jixin become emperor?"

Mei Guozhen's voice became louder and louder: "Why did he call himself emperor? Why did he call himself emperor? What reason did he use to call himself emperor? He is a courtier of Ming Dynasty! He is a general of Ming Dynasty! Why did he call himself emperor!? Why? Why!!!"

Mei Guozhen roared angrily, Ma Gui waved his hand, and the soldier directly stuffed Mei Guozhen's mouth with a cloth, covered Mei Guozhen's eyes with another piece of cloth, and carried him up.

"Fire the arrows."

Ma Gui didn't want to talk to Mei Guozhen anymore, so he directly ordered his mouth to be blocked and controlled, and then sent someone to the barracks to fire arrows.

The three sounding arrows still seemed a bit abrupt in the quiet night, at least it could be noticed by some people who paid close attention to the barracks.

So not far from the promise, several cavalry turned around and ran, and soon ran to a general standing beside the horse.

That was Luo Rong, the leader of the Wolf Warrior Camp. He was ordered by Xiao Ruxun to deal with Qufu's affairs. Magui's matter was only the first step, and he had more important matters to deal with.

"General, three arrows sounded from the front battalion, are we?"

Luo Rong was gnawing on a pancake. After hearing the report from the sentinel, he put the unfinished pancake back into his food bag, and then got on his horse.

"The whole army is ready, move forward slowly, and prepare me for battle. If things change, attack immediately, and leave no one behind!"

Even though he said this, Luo Rong knew very well that the soldiers under Ma Gui's hands were selected by Xiao Ruxun from Myanmar. The reason why he obeyed Ma Gui's orders was because of Xiao Ruxun's orders. The one who died was him.

Fortunately, Ma Gui is very honest, very knowledgeable about current affairs, and has no dissenting intentions. He tied Mei Guozhen and waited for his fate in the barracks, so Luo Rong came.

"General Ma! You have suffered for such a long time! Your Majesty specifically asked me to tell me that from now on, General Ma is one of us, and we don't have to hide our names and dare not even mention his name. No one will hurt us anymore. Mahjong is now!"

Luo Rong smiled and patted Ma Gui on the shoulder, looking like an old man with high qualifications and a good opinion of you, but he didn't care at all that Ma Gui was Xiao Ruxun's superior, and his qualifications were even deeper than Xiao Ruxun's.

But there is no way, the current situation is stronger than others, Ma Gui has been on the battlefield and in the officialdom for decades, I don’t know how many times he has been educated by superior civil servants on how to behave, he has lost his position, lost face, and almost went to jail , Magui has been tempered.

Thanks to Daming's rule of governing martial arts with literature, Ma Gui has learned a lot of knowledge. From the hot-blooded youth in the early morning to the old fritters now, he has already figured out certain laws and elements.

So Ma Gui was not displeased at all, but showed a very happy look.

"I've been looking forward to His Majesty's ascension to the throne for a long time, and I didn't get my wish until today. The new dynasty is established. This... this... the last general really doesn't know how to express his joy!"

Then Ma Gui pointed to Mei Guozhen who was still writhing on the shoulders of two soldiers.

"This is the Mei Guozhen requested by His Majesty. The last general has completed the task. What does General Luo think?"
