The temperature difference in the land of Yunling is very large, in the summer of the northern temperate zone of Yunnan, a word of disagreement is goose feathers and heavy snow flying all over the sky, but this does not affect the blooming tree Du Juan. The Yunnan golden snub-nosed monkey moves up and down in the mountains, and the white horse snowcock haunts the bushes at the foot of the mountain.

Outside the city gate of Guangnan Mansion, there are thousands of Mu family troops, led by Mu Cheng, the prince of Qianguo, and Mu Yan, the prince of Guo.

It is really rare to see such a big pomp.

As a descendant of one of the six founding kings, Mu Cheng, the prince of Qianguo, can actually be called the "King of Yunnan".

For the Central Plains, Yunnan belongs to the border area, and the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so it is difficult to control. There are three parts of the imperial court's rule in Yunnan, one is the area dominated by the Han people, and the system is the same as that of the Central Plains, which is also the place where the imperial court rule is the most solid.

One is a mixed area of soil flows, where ethnic groups include Han Chinese and ethnic minorities. There are both Fuzhou counties and Tusi here, which belong to the mixed area.

There is also an area where the indigenous people are the main people, also known as the Bondage Area. There was only the Tusi system, which belonged to the autonomous prefecture, and the imperial court's control over such areas was about none.

In the Hongwu Dynasty, through the unremitting efforts of Lan Yu, Mu Ying, Fu Youde and other generals, although Yunnan was finally included in the scope of Ming rule, the actual rule was still somewhat false. Although in some important areas, the imperial court deployed heavy troops to guard, so that the imperial court firmly controlled Yunnan and was in absolute control.

However, in the Ming Dynasty, Yunnan was vast, and there were many areas that belonged to Tusi, nominally belonging to the Ming Dynasty, but the control was not strong enough, and the centrifugal force was more serious.

In this case, it is impossible to rely on the three divisions to sit firmly in Yunnan, and there must be a speaker who stands up and guards Yunnan for generations, so as to ensure that the court can always control the overall situation of Yunnan, and it is also necessary to ensure that this speaker is loyal to the court, otherwise once this speaker has evil thoughts and wants to break the soil and become the king, then the court should be blind.

And this person is Lao Zhu's righteous son, the first head of the Mu family, and one of the six founding kings of Qianning, King Muying.

The Mu family is indeed loyal to the imperial court, to be precise, loyal to the Zhu family. Even though they had become the native emperors of Yunnan, they never thought of betraying the Zhu family.

"Here we are."

Mu Cheng looked at the avenue in front of him, the dust was flying, the sound of horses' hooves could be heard from a long distance, and hundreds of horses had appeared in front of everyone in an instant.

There are only two people in the world who can make the Qianguo Mansion go out of the city to greet him with such a big pomp.

In addition to these two people, even when the vassal king comes, the Qianguo Mansion will not give a little face, after all, the Mu family has not been a vassal king, and has almost abolished a vassal king. And this vassal king is not an ordinary vassal king, he is the son of Taizu.

The first Min king of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yang, the eighteenth son of Lao Zhu, was sealed in Minzhou, and later in order to appease the newly recovered Yunnan, the prince was changed to Yunnan.

In the first year of Jianwen, King Min was deposed as a concubine after being accused by Mu Cheng and moved to Zhangzhou. Although the title of king was restored after Zhu Di ascended the throne, King Min, who was at odds with Mu, was deposed twice more and finally cut off his guards.

The Mu family has been loyal to the Zhu family for generations, but not the Zhu family of any grade can criticize the Mu family.

……

The group walked thousands of miles and finally arrived in Yunnan, even though the wind and dust were servant, but it is not difficult to see the temperament of the superior on the body of these more than ten riders.

Mu Cheng took the lead in saluting: "Mu Cheng, the prince of Qianguo, see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Zhu Gaoxian turned over and dismounted, and happily helped up the body of the Duke of Qianguo: "The Duke of Qianguo guards Yunnan, and he has worked hard and made great achievements, so he does not have to salute in front of the palace in the future."

"Your Highness, don't say that, the ministers are afraid."

Mu Cheng looked at Mu Yan behind him and scolded, "Yan'er, why don't you hurry up and say hello to His Highness?"

Mu Yan hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Minister Mu Yan, see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Mu Cheng said to Zhu Gaoxian: "Your Highness, this is Mu Yan, a dog, it is rude, and I hope Your Highness will bear with me."

"It's okay, this palace has always been unconventional." Zhu Gaoxian waved his hand and looked at Mu Yan with interest,

"You're my brother-in-law."

Brother-in-law, that is, the husband of his wife and sister.

The wife of Mu Yan, the prince of Qianguo, is the daughter of Zhang Fu, that is, the sister of the crown princess Zhang Yingzhen.

Mu Yan comprehended, and immediately saluted the British public Zhang Fu beside Zhu Gaoxian: "I've seen my father-in-law!"

Zhang Fu bowed slightly, and didn't say much, he has always been so taciturn, only when talking to Zhu Di or Zhu Gaoxian, he will say a few more words.

Zhu Gaoxian used the name of his brother-in-law to ease the atmosphere a lot, if this is the case, his East Palace and the British Mansion and the Qianguo Mansion are actually a family, although the composition is very subtle, but after all, it still seems much more cordial.

Mu Cheng, the Duke of Qianguo, said to Zhang Fu enthusiastically: "Old Zhang, I haven't seen you for many years, why aren't you old."

The two are old comrades-in-arms, when Yongle was four years old, Mu Cheng was a deputy general to the fledgling Zhang Fu, Zhang Fu was the chief general of the Southern Expeditionary Army, and Mu Chengguan worshiped the deputy general of Zhengyi, one was Xinchenghou, and the other was Xipinghou. After that battle, both of them were promoted to the rank of national prince.

It was also the comrade-in-arms of the Southern Expedition that led to the marriage between the British Mansion and the Qianguo Mansion, but Zhang Fu was reluctant to marry his eldest daughter Zhang Yingzhen, but only married the second daughter to the Qianguo Mansion.

After all, there are no men in the British government, only Zhang Yingzhen, who has been smart since childhood, can preside over the overall situation in the capital, Zhang Fu fights in the southwest all the year round, and the British government in the capital only has the eldest daughter to rely on, which is why Zhang Yingzhen, who is in her twenties, has not married for a long time.

With Zhang Yingzhen's conditions, if you want to have good looks, you want to be virtuous and virtuous, and you want to have a family background, if the matchmaker who comes to visit can break the threshold, how can she be distressed that she can't get married, but Zhang Fu is unwilling to marry her eldest daughter.

Who would have thought that the British Mansion was stolen by Zhu Di, and the old man quietly married Zhang Yingzhen to Zhu Gaoxian, who was the king of Qi at the time, Zhang Fu, who was fighting in the southwest, was stupid when he heard these news, and when he reacted, the marriage decree had already been sent to the British Mansion.

Jun has no jokes, at least on the bright side, the emperor must be true to his words and want to return the holy decree?

There are no doors!

……

The group talked very happily in front of Guangnan Fucheng, Zhu Gaoxian launched his "Ming courtesan" eloquence, the more he talked, the more enthusiastic he became, if it wasn't for his identity, I am afraid that he would have to burn yellow paper with Qianguo Gong on the spot.

Mu Cheng glanced at the two people who followed behind Zhu Gaoxian and asked, "Your Highness, dare to ask who these people are?"

Zhu Gaoxian said with a smile: "Let me introduce to the Duke of Qianguo, this is the tax envoy of the Tax Supervision Yuan, the Fu Si of Jinyi Weibei Town and the Fu Si of Nan Town, Lu Chaoyang."

This is the official of the Jinyi Wei Thousand Households, Shen Qingyu, don't look at him young, he has made meritorious contributions in Shandong, and he will be promoted in a short time."

The two bowed down to Mu Cheng, neither humble nor arrogant, even in the face of Mu Cheng, the famous "King of Yunnan", there was no stage fright, but they did not lose their courtesy.

Although they were trying to hide the evil qi on their bodies, Mu Cheng, as a veteran who had been fighting for many years, still smelled the smell of blood that could not be dispersed on the two of them.

Mu Cheng said to Zhu Gaoxian with a pleasant face: "Your Highness, let's not stand in front of the city gate, the minister has prepared a banquet in the city, and he is waiting to entertain you."

"The Duke of Qianguo is so enthusiastic, this palace is not welcome, let's go, I will definitely get drunk today."

"Okay, Your Highness is coming, and my three prefectures, two prefectures, and five governors' lawsuits are shining, okay."

Mu Cheng said happily to Zhang Fu, "Lao Zhang, we haven't drunk for many years, come on, let me see if your alcohol consumption has regressed, you didn't win against me when you fought for wine, don't be drunk by me again today."

Zhang Fu snorted coldly and said, "Joke, back then, in the southwest, you were drunk, and you took off your pants and were about to stand on the table to pee bare, and in the end, I carried it back for you, did you forget?"

"It's nonsense, you don't want to ruin my reputation!"

"Is there such an interesting thing as the Duke of Qian?"

"Your Highness, don't believe Lao Zhang's nonsense, I just took off my pants in public back then, why did I stand on the table and pee?"

"Indeed, I stopped me and attempted to pee."

"Come on, come on, Zhang Fu, we must have none of them today!"

……

As soon as they entered the city, they rushed out of a guard and closed the gates.

The guards on the city wall arrived at the position in an instant, and a large number of Yunnan soldiers surrounded Zhu Gaoxian, Zhang Fu and others, and the atmosphere was instantly solemn, and they looked like they were closing the door and beating dogs.

Lu Chaoyang reacted quickly and shouted, "Protect Your Highness!"

A group of brocade guards reacted, and without hesitation, they drew their knives and pointed at Mu Cheng, with killing intent Ling Ran.

Zhu Gaoxian frowned slightly and looked at Mu Cheng: "Qianguo Gong, what does this mean, is it possible that you still want me to sleep in Guangnan Mansion?"

Mu Cheng was also stunned: "Yes, what does this mean?"

Zhu Gaoxian waved his hand to Lu Chaoyang behind him: "Let the brothers of Jinyiwei put down their knives, I believe in the character of the Duke of Qianguo."

Lu Chaoyang hesitated, between protecting His Highness's safety and obeying His Highness's orders, he still chose the latter: "Listen to the prince's order and put the knife down!"

Mu Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and glared at the surrounding Yunnan army: "What are you doing, are you going to rebel!"

He was really confused, and the Yunnan army under his hands rushed out, with a big intention of burying Zhu Gaoxian alive.

The incident happened suddenly, and Mu Cheng did not react.

For anyone, at this time, I am afraid that I will suspect that the Qianguo Mansion is going to rebel, but Mu Ben himself said that he really didn't mean it.

Fortunately, His Royal Highness trusted his Mu family enough, which eased the atmosphere a little.

The sergeant made a way, and a man who looked like a general hurriedly walked over: "Grandpa Guo, thousands of unknown troops suddenly appeared outside the city, in order to protect the safety of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and you, I ordered my subordinates to prepare for war without asking for instructions, please forgive me!"

Rao is Zhu Gaoxian has always been calm, and he couldn't help but be stunned at the moment: "You don't know how to read?"

The sea of soldiers who can't read and write is gone, but the lord of a city will not be able to read, which is a bit ridiculous.

Why don't you know how to distinguish the enemy's flag on the battlefield?

The military flag on the battlefield is not simple, for example, the military flag of the Ming army is not a simple "Ming" character, but indicates the subordinate department, which army it belongs to, which guard post it is, and which general commands it, all of which must be written clearly.

A general can't even read the military flag, and you can't even tell the enemy and friends in a war, so you still fight chicken feathers? Fighting to wipe out your own handsome battalion?

The chief general of Quang Nam Mansion hurriedly said, "Your Highness has misunderstood, the minister is not illiterate, but it is just that the enemy's banner is written on it, and it seems to be the script of the Jiaozhi people."

"The words of the Cochins?"

Zhu Gaoxian's brows locked into a Sichuan character.

He seemed to realize what the problem was.

Zhang Fu asked softly, "Your Highness, is it ...... One of us made a small effort, and the Annam province realized that something was wrong, and wanted to take us by surprise before we could gain a firm foothold, whether it was time or place, the card was too accurate."

Zhu Gaoxian shook his head: "No, if it was Annan Province that wanted to find trouble, they wouldn't have sent thousands of people."

If Annan Province had planted a fine work on Zhu Gaoxian's side, and planned to make a surprise attack after learning the news, it would not have been possible to send a few thousand people, but would have directly mobilized tens of thousands of troops to launch a general attack.

The Mu family is not vegetarian, thousands of people want to take down the Mu family and Zhu Gaoxian, it is not a siege, it is to send people's heads.
