It's really a holy decree, but the date noted above is the day when Zhu Yuanzhang ascended to the pole, and Lao Zhu also played a crossing, it seems that Lao Zhu is a little impatient with Emperor Symmetry. There is no other content of the holy decree, one is to give Song Shuang a decree, the other is to give a name to his daughter, and there are also some rewards, not many things, which is very in line with Lao Zhu's stingy nature.

Han Cheng said with a smile: "The prince is on a whim, but don't take it out to show off, wait for the prince to ascend to the pole and then offer it to the ancestral hall." ”

He took out another roll of paper from his arms, "Lord Ma, please take Wu Wangjun's decree!" ”

Hearing Han Cheng's serious tone, Ma Du immediately bowed down to listen.

"Order the firearms battalion supervisor and the city secretary to raise Ma Du to concurrently serve as the commander of the Shenji Battalion, and immediately go north to perform their duties, and they must not be delayed!"

Han Cheng saw that Ma Du's face was strange, so he persuaded: "The prince knows that you are happy with your daughter, and it is a last resort for you to go north to perform your duties. ”

Ma Du replied: "I'm not because of this, but I wonder why the prince named the little girl 'Dongmei'?" ”

He was stunned for a long time just now because he was thundered by this name, fortunately he was not called "Ma Dong", otherwise he didn't know if he would be able to come back alive this time when he went north.

Han Chengdao: "When the prince received that you sent someone to report the good news, he found that the plum blossoms in the courtyard were blooming, so he took this name. Don't you like it, this is the first time the prince has chosen a girl's name. ”

Lao Zhu is a strange person, and he doesn't have time to name his sons and daughters, but he often names the children of his subordinate generals, such as the names of the three brothers of the Chang family, all of whom were given by Lao Zhu.

Even the holy decree was used in advance, I have to say that Lao Zhu is very face-saving, Ma Du doesn't dare to say that he doesn't like it, and use it, and then give the child a nice nickname in the future.

Ma Du asked with anxiety in his heart: "Is something wrong with Wenying?" ”

Mu Ying's Shenji Battalion was well bred, and when Lao Zhu was fighting, Lao Zhu suddenly threw himself, a person who couldn't fight, into it, there must be something wrong with Mu Ying.

"Seriously injured!" Han Cheng saw Ma Du stumbling in shock, so he hurriedly added: "Don't worry, sir, others are fine, and there is no worry about their lives." ”

"You're scared me to death!" Ma Du let out a sigh of relief, if Mu Ying really died in this Northern Expedition, it would be his little wings flapping to death, "But I won't fight!" So who is now the chief officer of the Shenji Battalion, is it Guo Ying? ”

Han Cheng sighed and said, "I don't know what you've been doing all day, I don't care about the affairs of the court at all." Guo Ying has long been set aside by Wen Ying, and it is boring to stay in the Shenji Camp, and he has been transferred away for a long time. The prince asked Deng Yu, who was in Nanyang, to go to the Shenji Battalion as a commander, and you assisted him. ”

I have to say that Lao Zhu's arrangement is still very suitable, if you want to say that there are still people with some prestige in the Shenji Battalion, except for Zhu Wenying, there are several horses and Deng Yu.

Although Ma Du did not hold a position in the Shenji Battalion, the basic training of the Shenji Battalion can be said to be all taught by him, and the combat methods were pondered by him and Zhu Wenying, and most of the military regulations and military laws were also formulated by him.

Nearly half of the middle and lower-level officers of the Shenji Battalion are Hongdu people like dogs, Ma Du once fought side by side with them, bandaging and treating them, and Ma Du's prestige in the Shenji Battalion is a little worse than Zhu Wenying.

Originally, he was the most suitable candidate to replace Zhu Wenying, but unfortunately he couldn't command the battle, and only Deng Yu was the most suitable. When he was in Hongdu, he also participated in the training of the Shenji Battalion, and there are still many of his old departments in the Shenji Battalion, plus he is good at commanding firearms troops, so it is enough to have Deng Yu alone, why do you still call Lao Tzu? Han Cheng's answer to this was to let Ma Du look at Deng Yu and not let him mix sand into the Shenji Camp again.

Lao Zhu is really enough, can Deng Yue still rebel, but for Mu Yingmadu's trip, it is indispensable to run, although he has no worries about his life for a while, but if he is not careful in the later stage, he may still die at any time.

Song Shuang didn't expect that she would be separated from her husband just after giving birth to a child, crying so much that Ma Du pressed her on the bed, "Don't send me, if you suffer from the cold, you will be in trouble." ”

Kissing his daughter lightly on the head, Ma Du said to Song Shuang: "Don't forget, give your daughter a nice nickname." ”

Ma Du flashed out of the house, there were already many people standing outside, and the old loach sighed and said, "Why is it at this time!" Put it on, it's warm on the road. The old loach put the fur in his hand on Madu.

Song Kedao: "Xuanzhong don't worry, I will take care of your home and the academy." ”

The old loach hurriedly spat a few times, "Phew! Bah! Bah! Why didn't his eldest brother say something auspicious. ”

Song Ke said curtly: "Old lady, I didn't mean that, I can still hope that my sister will be widowed." ”

"Okay, okay, I'll leave the matter of the family to grandpa and eldest brother. I heard that we are already preparing to attack Dadu, so it shouldn't be long before we fight. ”

"Little turtle, there are compiled textbooks in my study, you can learn and teach, and if you don't understand, keep them first." Although the little turtle has a name and a character, Ma Du still thinks it is more convenient to call the little turtle.

"The eldest brother can rest assured that the younger brother will guard the door and help Mr. Zhu manage the academy."

Da Yu'er handed over a small burden to Ma Du, which was full of shoes and socks, "The road is far away and the weather is cold, brother take care all the way!" Before he finished speaking, he took the handkerchief and began to cry.

The two little girls were not so reserved, hugging Ma Du's legs and crying into tears, "Okay, you two should be obedient at home, don't be greedy, don't be greedy." Especially your little fish, your brother is not at home, don't get sick; And the water chestnut don't learn to apply grease and powder from that Miss Xu, and follow the big fish to learn housekeeping when you have time! ”

Zhu Xiaosi hugged his arms and said, "Uncle, you go to war and take me with you." ”

Ma Du stretched out his hand and flicked it on Zhu Xiaosi's head, "What are you kidding, stay at home well!" ”

"Then I'll help my aunt take care of my little sister at home."

"Mr. Han told the prince to pick him up as soon as possible!" In order for his daughter not to become bald or have fewer eyes and nose in the future, it is better to let Zhu Xiaosi go home quickly.

Ma Du rode on the donkey, a little cold fell on his face, and immediately turned into water stains, and dozens of bright torches looked up, and he saw that the sky was as black as ink, and there was a heavy snow falling, and pieces were like goose feathers.

"Hahaha...... Such a big snow is rare in Jiangnan! ”

Lao Liu took the coat and put it on Ma Du, "The lord can still laugh, I'm afraid I'm guilty along the way!" ”

The cavalry guards sent by Lao Zhu seemed to have been prepared, and they also took their robes one by one and put them on their bodies, Han Cheng said, "Is the lord okay?" Let's go! ”

Five hundred cavalrymen surrounded Ma Du and left, and a faint voice was heard behind him in the rumbling hooves, "Brother, I'm waiting for you to come back!" ”
