Mu Ying worked hard in Yunnan for nine years.

First, he put down the rebellion of the chieftain of Qujing, and later he subdued the chieftains in Puding and Nanguan areas.

Later, he sent troops to the Sino-Myanmar border, defeated the Burmese military and civilian envoy Silunfa, and shocked Yunnan.

Even my great-grandfather once sighed: The one who made me sleep peacefully and without worries is Ruying.

Mu Ying was granted the title of Marquis of Xiping during his lifetime, and after his death, he was posthumously granted the title of King of Qianning, so Mu Ying was one of the six founding kings.

After Mu Ying died, his eldest son Mu Chun succeeded to the throne.

Mu Chun is very brave, but not good at strategy.

If Mu Chun was still alive, Zhu Di would not be so afraid.

Unfortunately, Mu Chun died young, and his successor, Mu Sheng, the second son of the Mu family, was both talented in literature and martial arts, and was especially good at planning.

"It is said that when Mu Ying passed away, the tribes in Yunnan were ready to make a move, and it was Mu Sheng who helped Mu Chun, who had just succeeded him, to secure his position."

Zhu Gaochi felt tired at the end.

You should not have the intention to harm others, but you must be on guard against others. However, the whole process of being on guard is so tiring that it is beyond description.

"Hasn't the Mu family been working hard in Yunnan?"

Zhang Xin listened for a long time but was still confused.

Where does this precaution come from?

Yunnan doesn't even have a vassal king now, so Uncle Eighteen volunteered to work in one of the six ministries in the court, and now he's traveling all over the country to work on water conservancy.

"It's not about the Yongle Dynasty."

Zhu Gaochi shook his head and curled his lips.

Ultimately, it's all his royal grandfather's fault, and his father is now cleaning up the mess.

"Don't say a word about stopping."

Zhang Xin patted Zhu Gaochi.

"If I say something bad about my royal grandfather, I'm afraid I'll be struck by lightning! There really is a god above my head. I'm scared to death."

Zhu Gaochi was a little scared because of the light in front of him that was like thunder from Yuzhen Palace.

"Just don't say anything bad about Emperor Zhenwu."

Zhang Xin smiled.

"Okay, Dahua, you have to protect me if anything happens. Master Zhang said you have done great deeds!"

"Leave it to me."

Zhang Xin patted her chest to make the promise.

Zhu Gaochi then mustered up the courage to continue speaking.

When Mu Ying was conquering Yunnan, Zhu Yuanzhang actually intervened and tried to reap the benefits.

The first vassal king sent to Yunnan by Zhu Yuanzhang was named Zhu Shouqian, the son of Zhu Wenzhen. He was named King of Jingjiang in the third year of Hongwu.

In the 16th year of Hongwu's reign, Mu Ying conquered Yunnan, and his business had just started to improve. In the 20th year of Hongwu's reign, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Zhu Shouqian to Yunnan to serve as a vassal.

The way he eats looks really anxious.

The result, naturally, was not very good.

After Zhu Shouqian arrived in Yunnan, he completely disgraced Zhu Yuanzhang by being extravagant and licentious, killing innocent people, being greedy for money, and plundering and extorting. It could almost be said that he had all the five vices. Zhu Yuanzhang had no choice but to recall Zhu Shouqian silently.

If one person fails, send another one.

So in the 21st year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Zhu Su, also known as King Zhou.

It is said that local officials in Yunnan had no better opinion of Zhu Su than Zhu Shouqian.

Zhu Yuanzhang was so angry that he cursed Zhu Su as "the dumbest person in history" and recalled Zhu Su.

In the 28th year of Hongwu, a few years after Mu Ying's death, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to strike again to reap the benefits.

After much deliberation, the eighteenth prince Zhu Yun was chosen, and at the same time an order was issued to the Mu family to help build the Min Palace in Yunnan.

At this time, Mu Chun was still alive. At the suggestion of Mu Sheng, he submitted a memorial to Zhu Yuanzhang, saying that Yunnan was vast and sparsely populated, and human and financial resources were limited. If a palace was built in a hurry, it would inevitably increase the burden on the people. It would be better to let the King of Min live in the Zong Pavilion temporarily and wait for fifteen years before building the palace.

"At that time, I don't know whether my royal grandfather was stupid or was framed by the words of increasing the burden on the people, but he actually agreed to the Mu family's request."

Zhu Gaochi felt that it was really difficult to evaluate the things his royal grandfather did when he was old.
