Mu Ying is the righteous son of Emperor Taizu Gao Zhu Yuanzhang, and he is the most valued son, and the Mu family was taken care of by the "most" of all the righteous sons that year.

Therefore, Zhu Zhanyan said that it was no problem for Mu Xin to call Mu Sanshu Mu.

The Mu family is actually more interesting, because even Zhu Zhanyan doesn't know exactly whether they are loyal to the Ming Dynasty or as long as it is the blood of the Zhu family.

Back then, the old man Jing Nan, it must be a lie to say that the Mu family did not receive the news, after all, Jing Nan has been fighting for four years, and it must be nonsense to say that the Mu family did not receive the news.

That's interesting.

When Emperor Taizu Gao asked the Mu family to guard Yunnan in the era, he gave 300,000 troops, and with these 300,000 troops, plus Mu Sheng and Mu Ang, although they are not top generals, they are also relatively outstanding.

With an army of 300,000 plus two generals, there is really a question mark over whether the old man's Jingnan can succeed.

Moreover, in terms of personal feelings, the relationship between Mu Ying and Zhu Biao, the prince of Yiwen, is extraordinary, when she got the news of Zhu Biao's death, Mu Ying couldn't afford to be sick.

Although it is said that Mu Ying died when the old man was martyred, and the second son Mu Sheng took over the burden of the Mu family, Mu Sheng and Emperor Jianwen are also of the same generation, not to mention growing up together, but they have also played together.

Such Mu Sheng did not lead troops into King Jingqin, and Zhu Zhanyan was really surprised.

But it's reasonable, because if the Mu family moves, then Yunnan will face a great threat, After all, Chen Jikuo's abnormal movement is not a day or two, and the big tail has always been a problem for Daming.

These two come, in fact, if you really want to talk about it, no one thought that the old man would be able to succeed at that time, thanks to Li Jinglong, the first generation of the Ming Dynasty's god of war.

However, this has nothing to do with the current Zhu Zhanyan, because there is no doubt that the Mu family is loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and history has proven this.

Although it is not ruled out that there will be changes because of his butterfly, the changes usually do not happen suddenly, especially in the human heart.

"Mu Ang, how is the situation on your second brother's side?" His son said something unpleasant, and Zhu Gaoxu could only stand up and play a round.

If he doesn't stand up, even if no one stands up, it will be too embarrassing to wait for Mu Sheng to complete this topic by himself.

"So far, it's fine." Mu Sheng personally poured water for Zhu Gaoxu's father and son, and then gestured to Princess Han, who was about to leave.

These things have already involved state affairs, Princess Han is generally knowledgeable, and she will not participate in this at will, and the Mu family has no one else to receive now, Mu Ang can only owe to apologize.

"Your Majesty only sent someone to release Chen Jikuo at the end of last year, anyway, last year's victory of our Ming Dynasty still played a certain role, although Chen Jikuo wanted to re-raise the army, but those soldiers under his command did not necessarily have confidence."

"But this situation is limited to the present, and after a while, I'm afraid that Chen Jikuo will still stir up the wind and rain like the previous times."

"Look." Zhu Zhanyan spread his hands.

"If you want me to say, you still haven't found the key, and if you find the key, then everything will be solved."

"What's the key? Judging from your temperament, the key is to kill, right? Zhu Gaoxu nodded his son's forehead angrily.

Zhu Zhanyan spread his hands again, but he didn't speak, obviously that's what he meant.

"Your Royal Highness, don't you know, the conditions of this Jiaozhi are complicated, the local people are all living in the form of tribes, the mountain roads are difficult to travel, the news is blocked, and they basically don't know much about the outside world."

"At the same time, the chiefs everywhere were unwilling to surrender to the Ming Dynasty with the grace of the previous dynasty, which led to Chen Jikuo's rebellion again and again."

"Third Uncle Mu." Zhu Zhanyan sat up straight abruptly and said with a straight face.

"I've learned a little bit about the problem of Cochin, and I know you're right, but haven't you thought about changing it?"

"You said that the chiefs of Jiaozhi have the grace of the previous dynasty and are unwilling to join the Ming Dynasty, what is the specific reason?"

"This ......" Mu Ang was stunned.

"I guess you probably haven't thought about it, have you?" Zhu Zhanyan smiled, raised his hand to stop his father's intention to stop him, and began to analyze.

"Why do the chieftains of Cochin have the grace of the previous dynasty? That's because of the Northern Yuan system! ”

"The tax policy of the Northern Yuan is more complicated, but if I remember correctly, there is a tax system, especially for places like Cochin, which are inconvenient to transport, and usually implements a tax system called the package tax system, right?"

Mu Ang's brow furrowed.

What is the tax package system? To put it simply, the tax package system is a kind of imperial court that reports the tax of a place for a whole year to the chiefs of various places at a total price, and then the chiefs pay taxes according to this figure.

The chiefs then collected taxes from the lowest level of the people.

The tax package system is a tax policy that harms the interests of the imperial court and the interests of the people, and only the chiefs in the middle are fat, because as long as the chiefs pay the tax amount set by the imperial court, they can collect as much as they want from the people.

Doesn't that sound unbelievable? It doesn't matter if the people under this system don't rebel, they also helped Chen Jikuo rebel against the rule of the Ming Dynasty.

You must know that the tax system of the Ming Dynasty is relatively clear, and the agricultural tax and commercial tax are both 30 taxes and 1.

In fact, the reason is very simple, there is a word called deception, and when applied to the chief, it may have to be reversed.

Deceived and concealed, they used the people who were closed to the news as a bargaining chip to bully the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time, they also used the news to block the Ming Dynasty to shape the Ming in the hearts of the people into a more brutal and harsh image than the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty.

"Third Uncle Mu should have figured it out, right?" Seeing that Mu Ang fell into deep thought, Zhu Zhanyan also stood up.

"Look, that should make sense, right?"

"In the final analysis, the problem of Jiaozhi has not been solved, and that is because you and Second Uncle Mu have not done one thing."

"There's a word called hanging people, and I think it should be more suitable for you."

"Of course, it's not that I don't have knowledge, and I will come as soon as I open my mouth."

"I know that the problem of Jiaozhi is far more complicated than I thought, and how to convey the message to the people at the bottom is also a problem, but this is not the scope of my consideration."

"For me, it's already my best ability to tell you about things to this extent, as for the solution to the problem once and ...... for all."

Speaking of this, Zhu Zhanyan smiled at Mu Ang, and the laughter made Mu Ang's heart panic.

"I have, but it's not for you, and you can't afford it."
