Daming: I was exposed by Zhu Di's Sims life!

Chapter 278 Zhu Gaoxuan: Come to give away the head?

The temperature in Yunling is very different. In the summer in the northern temperate zone of Yunnan, if there is a disagreement, there will be goose feathers and heavy snow flying all over the sky, but this does not affect the blooming rhododendron trees.The Yunnan snub-nosed monkey runs up and down the mountains, and the white horse and snow rooster haunt the bushes at the foot of the mountain.

Outside the city gate of Guangnan Mansion, there stood the Mu Family Army of thousands of people, led by the Duke of Qian Mu Sheng and the Duke's son Mu Yan.

Such a big ostentation is really rare.

As a descendant of one of the six founding kings, Mu Sheng, Duke of Guizhou, can actually be called the "King of Yunnan".

For the Central Plains, Yunnan belongs to the frontier area, and the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, so it is difficult to control.There are three parts in the ruling area of ​​the imperial court in Yunnan. One is the area dominated by Han people. The system is the same as that of the Central Plains. This is also the place where the imperial court ruled most firmly.

One is the mixed soil flow area, where the ethnic groups include Han Chinese and ethnic minorities.There are both prefectures and counties here, as well as chieftains, which belong to the mixed area.

There is also an area dominated by aboriginal people, also known as the Jimi area.There is only the chieftain system here, which belongs to the autonomous prefecture, and the imperial court has almost no control over such areas.

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 rule of Ming Dynasty, the actual rule was still somewhat illusory.Although in some important areas, the imperial court deployed heavy guards, allowing the imperial court to firmly control Yunnan and be under absolute control.

But in the Ming Dynasty, Yunnan had a vast territory, and many areas belonged to the chieftain, which belonged to Ming Dynasty in name, but the control power was not strong enough, and the centrifugal force was relatively serious.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible to rely on the third division to secure a stable position in Yunnan. There must be someone who speaks up and guards Yunnan from generation to generation, so as to ensure that the imperial court can always control the overall situation of Yunnan. The speaker is loyal to the court, otherwise, if the speaker has evil thoughts and wants to break the soil and become king, the court will catch him blind.

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

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

"coming."

Mu Sheng looked at the road in front of him. The dust was flying, and the sound of horseshoes could be heard from a long distance. Hundreds of horsemen appeared in front of everyone in an instant.

There are only two people in the world who can make Qianguo's mansion come out of the city with such a grand occasion.

Except for these two people, the Duke of Guizhou would not give any face even when the vassal king came. After all, it was not that the Mu family had never been a vassal king, and they almost abolished a vassal king.Moreover, this vassal king is not an ordinary vassal king, but the son of Taizu.

In the early Ming Dynasty, Zhu Wei, the king of Min, the No.18 son of Lao Zhu, was enshrined in Minzhou. Later, in order to appease the newly recovered Yunnan, the prince was changed to Yunnan.

In the first year of Jianwen, King Min was dismissed as a commoner after being accused by Mu Sheng, and moved to Zhangzhou.Although the title of king was restored after Zhu Di ascended the throne, King Min, who had a bad relationship with Mu Sheng, was deposed twice, and his guards were eventually cut off.

The Mu family has been loyal to the Zhu family for generations, but not even the Zhu family of any class can dictate to the Mu family.

……

The group of people traveled thousands of miles and finally arrived in Yunnan. Even though it was full of dust and dust, it was not difficult to see the superior temperament of these ten or so riders.

Mu Sheng took the lead in saluting: "Mu Sheng, Lord Qian, please see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Zhu Gaoxuan dismounted from his horse, and supported Duke Qian with relief: "Duke Qian is guarding Yunnan, he has worked hard and made great achievements, so he doesn't need to salute in front of my palace in the future."

"Your Highness, don't say that, I'm terrified."

Mu Sheng looked at Mu Yan behind him, and scolded, "Yan'er, why don't you greet His Highness quickly?"

Mu Yan hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Chen Muyan, see His Royal Highness the Prince!"

Mu Sheng said to Zhu Gaoxuan: "Your Highness, this is the dog Mu Yan, who is out of manners, please forgive me."

"It's okay, I don't stick to trifles." Zhu Gaoxuan waved his hands, looking at Mu Yan with great interest, "You are my brother-in-law, Mu Yan."

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

The official wife of Duke Qian's eldest son, Mu Yan, is the daughter of Zhang Fu, who is also the younger sister of Crown Princess Zhang Yingzhen.

Mu Yan comprehended, and immediately saluted to the British official Zhang Fu who was beside Zhu Gaoxuan: "I have seen my father-in-law!"

Zhang Fu nodded slightly, and said nothing more in response. He has always been so taciturn, and he would only say a few more words when talking to Zhu Di or Zhu Gaoxuan.

Zhu Gaoxuan used the name of his brother-in-law to ease the atmosphere a lot. If this is the case, his East Palace, the British Duke's Mansion, and the Qianguo Duke's Mansion are actually a family. Although the relationship is very subtle, it still seems a lot closer.

Qian Guogong Mu Sheng said to Zhang Fu warmly: "Old Zhang, I haven't seen you for many years, why are you not old?"

The two are old comrades-in-arms. In the fourth year of Yongle, Mu Sheng served as the deputy general for the fledgling Zhang Fu. Zhang Fu was the chief general of the Southern Expedition Army, and Mu Sheng was the deputy general of Zheng Yi Zuo. One was the Marquis of Xincheng and the other was Xiping. waiting.After that battle, both of them were promoted to Duke.

It was also Nan Zheng's comrade-in-arms that led to the marriage between the British government and the Qian government, but Zhang Fu was reluctant to marry his eldest daughter Zhang Yingzhen, but married his second daughter to the Qian government.

After all, there are no males in the British government. Only Zhang Yingzhen, who is smart since she was a child, can preside over the overall situation in the capital. The reason why Zhang Yingzhen has not married for a long time.

According to Zhang Yingzhen's conditions, she must have good looks, be virtuous and virtuous, and have a family background. If the matchmaker who visits the door can break the threshold, she will be troubled and unable to marry. It's just that Zhang Fu doesn't want to marry the eldest daughter.

Who would have thought that the British government was stolen by Zhu Di, and the old man quietly betrothed Zhang Yingzhen to Zhu Gaoxuan, who was then the king of Qi. Zhang Fu, who was fighting in the southwest, was dumbfounded when he heard the news. At that time, the imperial decree of marriage had already been sent to the British government.

You are not joking, at least on the bright side, the emperor must keep his word and want to return the imperial decree?

None of the doors!
……

A group of people chatted happily in front of Guangnan Fucheng. Zhu Gaoxuan activated his eloquence of "Da Ming socialite", and the more he talked, the more enthusiastic he became.

Mu Sheng glanced at the two people following Zhu Gaoxuan, and asked, "Your Highness, who are these?"

Zhu Gaoxuan said with a smile: "Let me introduce to Duke Qian. This one is Lu Chaoyang, the tax supervisor of the Taxation Court, the governor of Jinyiwei North Town and the governor of Guannan Town."

This is Shen Qingyu, the official of one thousand households of Jinyiwei. Although he is young, he has made meritorious service in Shandong, and he will be promoted in a short time. "

The two bowed and saluted Mu Sheng, neither humble nor overbearing. Even facing Mu Sheng, the well-known "King of Yunnan", they did not have the slightest stage fright, but they did not lose their etiquette.

Although they were trying their best to hide the evil spirit on their bodies, as a veteran who had fought for many years, Mu Sheng could still smell the lingering bloody smell from these two people.

Mu Sheng said to Zhu Gaoxuan with a pleasant face: "Your Highness, let's stop standing in front of the city gate. I have prepared a banquet in the city, and I am waiting to entertain you."

"Duke Qian is so enthusiastic, so I will not be polite. Let's walk around. I will definitely get drunk today."

"Okay, Your Highness is here, and I, the three prefectures, two prefectures and five chiefs, are in full bloom, all right."

Mu Sheng said cheerfully to Zhang Fu again, "Old Zhang, we haven't had a drink for many years, come on, let me see if your drinking capacity has regressed, you never beat me when you fought hard, Don't be so drunk by me again today."

Zhang Fu snorted coldly, and said: "It's a joke, back then in the southwest, you were so drunk that you had to take off your pants and bare buttocks to stand on the table to pee, and in the end I carried it back for you, did you forget?"

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

"Duke Qian, is there such an interesting story?"

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

"Indeed, I stopped her and tried to pee."

"Come on, come on, Zhang Fu, there must be none of us today!"

……

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

The guards on the city wall arrived at their positions in an instant, and a large group of Yunnan soldiers surrounded Zhu Gaoxuan, Zhang Fu and others.

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

The group of Jin Yiwei came to their senses, and without hesitation drew their knives and pointed at Mu Sheng with a murderous intent.

Zhu Gaoxuan frowned slightly and looked at Mu Sheng: "Mr. Qian, what is the meaning of this? Could it be that you still want me to sleep forever in Guangnan Mansion?"

Mu Sheng was also confused: "Yes, what does this mean?"

Zhu Gaoxuan waved to Lu Chaoyang behind him: "Let the brothers of Jin Yiwei put down their knives, I believe in Duke Qian's character."

Lu Chaoyang hesitated for a moment. 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 down the knife!"

Mu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, and glared at the Yunnan Army around him: "What are you doing, you are trying to rebel!"

He was really stupefied, and the Yunnan soldiers under his hands rushed out, with the intention of burying Zhu Gaoxuan alive.

The incident happened so suddenly, Mu Sheng didn't even react.

If it were anyone, at this moment, they would suspect that the Duke Qian's government was about to rebel, but Mu Sheng himself said that he really didn't mean that.

Fortunately, His Highness had enough trust in his Mu family, which eased the atmosphere a bit.

The sergeant gave way, and a person who looked like a general came hurriedly: "Master, thousands of unknown troops suddenly appeared outside the city. Order the subordinates to prepare for battle, please forgive me!"

Mu Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, wiped off the sweat from his forehead, and reprimanded him: "Look at the good things you have done, as the chief general of the Guangnan Mansion, you caused such a big mess and shocked His Highness, why don't you go and get the [-] by yourself?" Staff!"

Zhu Gaoxuan waved his hand: "The military staff will be spared, I am also a soldier, so naturally I know the reason for this, he is just doing his duty, what is the crime?"

With his level, Mu Sheng was able to step down, and said to the officer, "Your Highness is broad-minded, and you don't care about this idiot, why don't you thank Your Highness quickly?"

The general hurriedly said to Zhu Gaoxuan: "Thank you Your Highness! Your Highness is benevolent!"

Zhu Gaoxuan frowned and asked, "Do you often make such things happen in Guangnan Mansion?"

Inexplicably, someone knocked on the door. Even though he understood that Guangnan Prefecture in Yunnan was the border, Zhu Gaoxuan's attitude towards Mu Sheng was somewhat doubtful.

He, a crown prince, ran all the way to Yunnan, no matter how dull Mu Sheng was, he should have sent troops to beat the enemy troops in the nearby area and put the table on the table.This set up from the very beginning is not to slap Zhu Gaoxuan in the face, but to slap the Duke of Qian's face.

How can this not make people wonder whether the Guizhou government is a little slack in Yunnan.

The court trusts your Mu family so much, is this how your Mu family repays the court?
Mu Sheng said with some embarrassment: "That's not true, I have already dealt with the affairs near Guangnan Mansion before, but..."

Zhang Fu excused the old comrade-in-arms: "Your Highness, I also know Lao Mu a little bit. He has always been cautious and would not make such a mistake. Presumably, some unexpected accident happened."

Zhu Gaoxuan looked at the guard of Guangnan Mansion: "The enemy's flag, doesn't it indicate which army it is from?"

No matter what kind of army it is, even if it is a peasant army uprising, they will put their own flag on it to prevent the enemy from distinguishing themselves on the battlefield. The military flag is the soul of an army. Once there is no military flag on the battlefield, the soldiers will think that the general will die suddenly. So morale plummeted.

The Guangnan guard was a little embarrassed: "Chen, I didn't recognize it."

Even though Zhu Gaoxuan was always calm, he couldn't help being stunned at this moment: "You can't read?"

Soldiers can't read a lot, but a city lord can't read, which is a bit nonsense.

How can you distinguish the enemy's flag on the battlefield if you can't read?
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 station it is, and which general it is in command of. Clearly.

A general can't even read the military flag, and you can't even tell the difference between the enemy and the friendly army in a war. Are you still playing chicken feathers?Destroyed his own handsome battalion in a pretentious manner?

The chief general of Guangnan Mansion quickly said: "Your Highness has misunderstood. It's not that I can't read. It's just that the flag of the enemy army is written on it. It seems to be written by the Cochin people."

"The words of the Cochin people?"

Zhu Gaoxuan frowned into a Sichuan character.

He seemed to realize what the problem was.

Zhang Fu asked softly: "His Royal Highness, is it... there is a secret operation among us, Annan Province realized something was wrong, and wanted to catch us by surprise before we got a firm foothold, no matter the time or place, we were stuck. So accurate."

Zhu Gaoyi shook his head: "No, if Annan Province was looking for something, they wouldn't have sent thousands of people here."

If it was Annan Province who had placed a spy by Zhu Gaoyi's side, and planned to launch a surprise attack after hearing the news, it would be impossible to send thousands of people, but directly mobilize tens of thousands of troops to launch a general attack.

The Mu family is not a vegetarian, and thousands of people want to take down the Mu family and Zhu Gaoxuan. That's not a siege, it's a gift.
