Regarding Zheng He's return, Zhu Zhanyan didn't care very much.

He just didn't want Zheng He to become a monitor who would often pass by his side, so he chose to withdraw from the front line before Zheng He returned.

Besides, he didn't just retire for Zheng He, he told his father before that it was for the old man and Mu Sheng, and for the future of King Han's lineage.

However, for Zheng He, Zhu Zhanyan is still quite interested.

Zheng He, Zhu Zhanyan, not only knows everything about it, but he can also be said to know it very well, but the more he understands, the more he can't understand Zheng He.

Zheng He was born in the Yuan Dynasty, an aristocratic family, and was originally known as Ma Sanbao.

During the Hongwu period, Fu Youde and Lan Yu went on an expedition to Yunnan, Zheng He's family was ruined, and he was captured to Yingtianfu and tortured in a cruel and inhumane palace.

This is how Zheng He became a eunuch.

It stands to reason that with Zheng He's tragic childhood experience, he should hate the old Zhu family to the core, but he was under the old man, and he made many military exploits on the road of Jingjing, which can be described as unswerving.

Seven times in his life, he even died on the way to the West, and his name went down in history, In addition, Zheng He has nothing to pick in terms of character, at least he is an upright person.

It stands to reason that such a tragic childhood experience and the trauma of physical disability should not be surprising for such a person.

But Zheng He did not, he always maintained a broad mind during the seven voyages to the West, except for the last trip to Mecca, which was not mixed with any personal emotions, which is really incomprehensible.

Zhu Zhanyan felt that if it were him, he might not be able to achieve Zheng He's point, even if he endured everything, he was afraid that he would kill on the way to the West for the third time.

The third time, that is, this time, when Zheng He went to the West, he encountered war.

When Zheng He went to the West for the second time, he went to the white elephant, and carried out alms and erected monuments in the Ceylon Mountain Temple, probably because Zheng He's performance was too generous this time, and he was remembered as a result.

On the third journey, the king of the Ceylon Hill Country, where Zheng He's last charity was located, had a bad heart and wanted to rob the road.

It's a bit funny that this thing is true, there are tens of thousands of people in the ocean-going treasure fleet, and the ship is so big that it can run horses on the deck, and it's not like it's fun to fight a small country?

The final result was that the king of the Ceylon mountain kingdom, who wanted to cosplay a bandit, was attacked by the soldiers of the ocean-going treasure fleet all the way to the royal city, and he was also captured alive and brought to the Ming Dynasty to be handed over to Zhu Di for trial.

The end is not without tragedy.

In this way, Zheng He didn't make any out-of-the-ordinary moves, and he didn't kill people indiscriminately, so he arrested the king and left.

Zhu Zhanyan really didn't understand.

After thinking about it, Zhu Zhanyan could only explain this problem by saying that Zheng He was a pious Mu Silin.

"His Royal Highness ...... the Prince"

Zhu Zhan was slumped on the recliner on the balcony on the second floor, thinking about Zheng He's affairs, when a familiar voice sounded.

is the third son of the Mu family, Mu Ang.

"It's Uncle Mu." Zhu Zhanyan sat up straight, but did not go downstairs, but invited.

"Uncle Mu, come up, you are in a hurry, there are good dry warehouses here, come up and taste it!"

The dry warehouse is ripe, and it is still three years, which is already very good, although it stands to reason that Pu'er tea can be stored indefinitely, but it depends on the storage environment.

Generally speaking, two to three years of ripening is a good period.

But even so, Zhu Zhan Yan is not very fond of drinking Pu'er tea, he prefers Longjing and Phoenix Mountain Dancong tea.

But there is no way, Yunnan is the production of Pu'er, and he is not a particular person, he drinks raw Pu'er is also very good, but he can't drink cooked Pu'er, he can only taste it occasionally.

"His Royal Highness the Prince ......" Mu Ang quickly went upstairs and stood behind Zhu Zhanyan.

"Third Uncle Mu, sit down." Zhu Zhanyan took a cup for Mu Ang and poured a cup of tea.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Mu Ang bowed slightly, and then sat down according to Zhu Zhanyan's meaning.

"Your Highness, I wonder when you will return to Cochin? My brother just sent a message saying that the fire south of the Taojiang River had almost burned out, and it was obviously extinguished by others in the future, so I wanted to ......"

Zhu Zhanyan raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth also curled.

"Third Uncle Mu, I don't plan to go back." Zhu Zhanyan said with a smile.

"First of all, this is about to be a tea and horse market, grandpa is gracious, and the right to the Yunnan tea and horse market is given to my father, I have to keep an eye on it, it's not good if something goes wrong."

"Secondly, I also said at the beginning, I actually gave a way to solve the problem of Jiaozhi, but because you and Second Uncle Mu couldn't bear the consequences of this method, I went into battle in person."

"Now I have also set this fire, and there are a lot of Jiaozhi people who have burned to death, and the large and small Jingguan may not be worthy of the name compared to the one on the grassland, but there are also enemy bones."

"I've memorized this notoriety, you and Second Uncle Mu can't catch me alone, right?"

"In the end, I have memorized the notoriety, and I have also exercised for Second Uncle Mu, those three thousand people can do anything now, there is no need for me to go."

"To put it mildly, even if Second Uncle Mu burns the south all over now, others won't say anything about him, but will put all the pots on my head."

"I've gotten it this far, and you're still letting me go, that's a bit unrighteous, isn't it?"

"His Royal Highness the Prince is talking about ......" Mu Ang was a little embarrassed, but he could also nod yes.

It's not that Zhu Zhanyan is looking for a reason, it's really that they are not righteous in this matter.

Zhu Zhan's analysis is clear and thorough, and after this battle, the credit is Mu Sheng's, and the notoriety is Zhu Zhan's, and there are precedents of corrupt officials, profiteers, widows, and grasslands, and others will only focus on Zhu Zhanyan.

This kind of practice of taking benefits and letting others carry the pot, and finally wanting people to carry all the pots and not leaving a little for themselves, is indeed despicable.

However, this is also human nature, and no one wants to take such a big risk.

"Third Uncle Mu, it's best if you understand." Listening to Mu Ang's words, Zhu Zhanyan didn't seem to feel the embarrassment in his words at all, and immediately made a grateful look.

"I think when I was in Yingtian, the things I did were made into a script, and the teahouses in Yingtian City were performed one by one, and they were not the same every day, and I also said that I was a greedy wolf star who went down to earth and killed people without blinking."

"Look, for this reason, my father came to Yunnan to become a vassal, I don't want the people of Yunnan to feel the same, otherwise why would I still live here?"

"Thank you Uncle Mu for your understanding!"

As he spoke, Zhu Zhanyan got up gratefully and personally poured Mu Ang a cup of tea.

"Yes, His Royal Highness the Prince said ......" Mu Ang looked embarrassed.
