Chapter 327: Straight men can’t be sent out for marriage?
Zheng Haizhu took Mangui a little further, and then he said: "The coat in the bag was sewn by me along the way, and was given to Aunt Kedun to keep out the wind. It is lined with chinchilla skin and has a silver mink scarf.
, the outer covering is the thickest big cloth from Songjiang, South Zhili, and the pattern is of twining branches and lotus flowers..."
"Hey, wait a minute, madam."
Mangui was already dizzy after hearing this. This woman's clothes were just like the rouge and gouache they used, and her mother-in-law was girly and complicated. How could she understand that she was a man who was an archery and swordsman.
He then showed an embarrassed sneer: "Say ma'am, Man Gui and I are a rough guy with a stupid brain, how can I remember this? Madam is also a woman, how about you condescend to me and talk to that nanny in person?"
Zheng Haizhu sighed: "Man Gui, don't be so humble about your stupidity. You, your heart is very clear. You must have seen in the past few days that He Zhuo doesn't want to talk to me and General Ma. Otherwise, why would she come to talk to us?
When it comes to grassland terrain, it was deliberately changed to Mongolian?"
Mangui was still puzzled, but she spoke directly: "Well, then I'm in the same group as you, why doesn't she dislike me? Could it be that she really has a crush on me?"
Zheng Haizhu suppressed her laughter.
How can straight men like Man Gui and Ma Xianglin penetrate and understand a woman's heart, which is as deep as the sea?
Although He Zhuo had a high status among the Mongols and was mature in his actions, she was still just a young woman in her twenties or twenties. Seeing that Ma Xianglin was good-looking and brave and invincible in battle, it was Ye He tribe who killed her.
The feud between He Zhuo and He Zhuo is also a natural manifestation.
No matter how much she conceals it, she will still teach someone like Zheng Haizhu to see through it.
After Zheng Haizhu mentioned several times that General Ma and his wife were the couple of gods and immortals, He Zhuo's proud attitude in front of Zheng and Ma was deliberately more serious. He treated Man Gui, the only Han Chinese who could speak Mongolian,
But he took special care of him.
This may not necessarily be because He Zhuo is too hungry and wants to "take the next best thing", but rather out of a mixture of pride and anger.
Ma Xianglin doesn't need to understand a woman's thoughts as thin as a cotton needle, but Mangui doesn't understand them best.
Rough guys who don't understand style are actually easier to guide than those scheming romantic men.
Zheng Haizhu then looked at Man Gui: "I'm not her, how can I understand?"
Immediately, his amusement was mixed with a hint of sudden understanding, and he smiled slightly and said: "However, it is not wrong for General Man to make such a guess."
Mangui hurriedly shook the bag and waved his hands in protest: "No, no, she, she is half a Tatar and half a northerner. I am a Ming Dynasty border general. What's the difference between marrying her and surrendering to the enemy?"
Zheng Haizhu stopped and stared into Man Gui's eyes. The smile disappeared and turned serious.
"Man Gui, I said before, you are not a fool, you are really a fool. You cannot win the battle when you mount your horse. When you dismount, you will not consider the consequences of their disrespectful words and offending He Zhuo like you just did when you scolded the soldiers. Since you have a clear mind
Same, how can you open your mouth to attack someone who is invincible? Do you know that before you, our Ming Dynasty had many military generals of Mongolian origin, who held high positions? Zheng He, whom Yongle regarded highly, was not Han. As for Ye
The Hebe Jurchens also obeyed the imperial court's orders and sent troops to defeat the Jianzhou Jurchens. Now Lin Dan Khan has openly defected to the Ming Dynasty. What? You, a Ming Dynasty man of Mongolian origin, married a Ye He who was a nun in Chahar.
Women have become enemies?"
Man Gui was once again stunned by the woman in front of him. He felt that her words were flying and the tricks she conjured were more complicated than his and General Ma's sword and spear skills.
Mangui simply gave in: "Everything Madam said is right."
After saying this, she saw Mrs. Zheng regaining her gentle and joking expression, looking at herself, and Man Gui stuttered and asked: "What, what's wrong?"
Zheng Haizhu said: "Nothing, I'm just thinking that General Man is just worried about what the world thinks and what the court thinks. In fact, you yourself have no intention of disliking Miss He Zhuo."
Mangui was stunned and quickly defended: "No, madam, I didn't..."
"Well, I can see that you don't hate her," Zheng Haizhu continued to walk towards the Huangjiao temple and wrote lightly, "Actually, there is nothing hateful about her. If you leave out the title of Grandma Ketun, isn't she just a
You are a young girl who is not unworthy in appearance. I would like you to be filled with laurel flowers. Instead of putting flowers in cow dung, I would like to put fresh peaches in a bamboo basket. Isn't that wronging you?"
Man Gui only felt that she was as big as two heads. She took a few steps forward and said to Zheng Haizhu: "Okay, okay, Madam, please stop trying to bury me. I'll go run an errand for you. What's the name of this robe? What's the name of Huang Liantang?"
Pattern?"
Zheng Haizhu said word by word: "The pattern of yellow reed leaves and lotus tangled branches."
"Remember, remember, the pattern of yellow gourds intertwining branches," Mangui hugged the bag and walked quickly to the high ground where the Huangjiao temple is located, speaking louder, "I will definitely pass on my wife's words, but
The medicine given by Aunt Dun is really effective, my wife’s arm has healed well, and I didn’t waste any time sewing a coat for Auntie.”
Several Sichuan soldiers who gathered together for dinner looked at Man Gui's burly figure walking away inexplicably. When they looked back, they saw Ma Xianglin slowly walking over. They immediately stood up and saluted the young master respectfully.
Ma Xianglin waved his hand and said calmly, "Keep eating." Then he said to Zheng Haizhu, "Madam, Ma has something to discuss."
The two of them walked a little further away from the soldiers. Ma Xianglin folded his arms. It seemed to others that he was commenting on the terrain of the four directions with Zheng Haizhu. His practical tone was a bit awe-inspiring: "You are trying to bring Man Gui and that person together."
Yehe woman?”
Zheng Haizhu also set his sights on the distance of Qianli Mu Yunping, and said bluntly: "If you are really transferred by the imperial court to be the guard of Daning New Town, it would not be a bad thing if one of your subordinates is married to the Chahar tribe. Back then,
Princess Jieyou of the Han Dynasty married Wusun, in order to achieve a plan to unite Wusun and cut off the right arm of the Huns. Princess Jieyou's maid Feng Liao later also married a general under King Wusun, so..."

Zheng Haizhu understood the coldness in an instant. She withdrew her gaze, turned her head, stared at Ma Xianglin without any evasion, and said: "Do you feel that Man Gui is your subordinate, and I am overstepping my bounds and not knowing what I should do?"
Already?"
Ma Xianglin did not meet the woman's eyes. He paused and said in a deep voice: "I don't understand what you are so anxious about even before you say Daning will be rebuilt. This is not about attacking a city. You women, just
Do you like matchmaking so much?"
"Ma Xianglin," Zheng Haizhu said in a low voice, "take back your last sentence. What does it mean that 'we women' like to be matchmakers? Is this a matter of maintaining matchmaking? There were so many marriage plans in the previous dynasty.
Are all the powerful ministers and dignitaries in China fucking women? Is Nurhaci, who is married to Horqin, Karaqin, and Neikalkha, a woman? Why, if only women are allowed to marry far away from the grasslands to make peace, men can’t marry wives for the country?
You men are so capable, how come there are nine towns to the north of the Ming Dynasty, and the court still ends up giving Chahar a new year's reward of silver!"
"You..." Ma Xianglin choked on his words and only tightened his thick eyebrows.
He once again felt that his familiar friends had become strangers during this journey.
Zheng Haizhu's tone softened.
"Xiang Lin, if you feel that I have offended your authority as the superior of Mangui, then I would like to explain to you. This time when I came to the north, Long live the Lord gave me instructions to patrol the border, as if I was not wearing official robes.
As the censor, I naturally want to think about more than just war plans. These days, I have seen He Zhuo and Man Gui acting unusually, so I have been thinking about the old affairs between the Han Dynasty and Wu Sun. It is just a test. I just wanted to mention it to you.
, you came here to investigate first. After all, you are a gunsmith, and you have an eye for six directions."
Ma Xianglin lowered his eyelids and listened.
This woman is really hiding a secret. Even the current friendship has made it clear that she, Zheng Haizhu, is the one who talks about the Tianxian. As an envoy of the Tianjia, she is dealing with the fate of a border general flag. What is wrong with it?
of?
But she took the initiative to take back the tip of the needle she showed, still assuming the attitude of "I still need to discuss it with you."
Ma Xianglin was silent for a while and then said: "It's not like you didn't see it when we were in Liaodong. Li Rubai just married Nurhachi's daughter as a concubine, just like surrendering to the enemy and betraying the country. Now if Man Gui renews his relationship, that Ye He woman will do it
She is the head wife, I'm afraid..."
This time it was Zheng Haizhu's turn to interrupt him: "The civil officials and censors who said that Li Rubai defected to the enemy and betrayed the country were either confused or deliberately pretending to be stupid. When Li Chengliang made the decision and let his son adopt Nurhaci's daughter, it was the imperial court that ordered it.
Everyone at the head of the court and at the border didn't know that it was just part of the Ming Dynasty's policy of restraining the emperor. Haha, as soon as Nurhaci rebelled, Li Rubai was pushed to the forefront. Thousands of people pointed out, how could anyone cross the river and demolish the bridge like this?
Is there right and wrong?”
Ma Xianglin said sadly: "As soon as the pen of the civil official is moved and the memorial is read, what can we military people do?"
Zheng Haizhu said: "Because of this, you should see clearly that we are not worthy of being led by the noses of these civil servants who treat people wrongly, because no matter how obedient you are, when their whips are about to come, you can always find someone to turn to."
to your fault."
Ma Xianglin sighed deeply and stopped responding for a while.
Zheng Haizhu didn't want to stand side by side with General Ma as the sun set in front of everyone, so he prepared to go back to the temple to rest.
When I turned around, I saw a black bear running towards me, stepping on the snow, one foot deep and one foot shallow.
"Madam, um, Aunt Ke Dun said, thank you for your trouble."
Man Gui still raised his voice, so that the sergeants would know that he was doing something for Mrs. Zheng, so he got into the room where the Ye He woman was resting.
When Man Gui came closer, Zheng Haizhu asked meaningfully: "You are back so soon? Are you more efficient than cutting off the heads of Tatars?"
Mangui blurted out: "She wanted to make butter tea for me. I was so scared that I ran away quickly."
