Chapter 412

Both of them were people who went to the chixian city and saw the strength of the Yang family. I have been with my personal servants for such a long time. In the future, I have a bright future waiting for them. It can only be a bad idea to betray the dreams made up by others in front of me. If so, it's better to happen as soon as possible. An unfaithful person might as well expose his true face as soon as possible rather than waiting to be around him step by step.

Of course, Yang ER and Yang Wu must stand the test. At this point, Yang Chendong is still very confident.

"Young master, another person walked over our heads. It seems that the number should be more than one class. Do you start?" Yang Chendong was still thinking about the environment he was facing, and whether he had any concerns. When he could take the initiative to walk, a slightly excited voice came from his ear.

They are now in the pit. The top of the pit is covered with branches and leaves for camouflage. Unless it is a professional, it is difficult to find such a trap unless it is very close. This means of concealment and camouflage, for Yang Chendong, I don't know how many times I did it in that life, and I have been full of experience for a long time.

In fact, there are more than a dozen such camouflage and deep pits in the mountain forest. In this pit are six members of the first security team following Yang Chendong, such as Hu mang. Here is to deal with the cold front players passing by from this side and "eliminate" them one by one.

Hearing that someone came to his pit, Yang Chendong gently tilted his mouth and showed a smile, "well, the fat meat in his mouth must be eaten, and let Leng Feng know that a trace of carelessness may pay the price of life, especially in the jungle with changeable environment."

"Look, young master." after receiving the order to attack, Hu Mang's eyes twinkled with excitement. Even though it was dark at the bottom of the pit, he still seemed to be eager to try.

Not long ago, there was a slight dull hum outside the pit. Obviously, a unilateral "killing" was going on.

......

Xiping Marquis house.

In front of us are two four meter high giant stone lions. It is said that this was built by the most famous craftsmen in the country at the time of the founding of the government. After the event, after Dianqing's pen fell, the stone lion's eyes faintly emitted a deep light, which can frighten people's hearts and souls.

Between the two stone lions, there is a tall and solemn lacquer red gate, inlaid with horizontal and vertical seven roads. There are a total of seventy-nine white door nails, which symbolize the identity of the owner of the house.

When you open the heavy gate and enter the courtyard, it is not only wide, but also exquisitely decorated. It is really carved beams and painted buildings and resplendent. Even compared with some Ming Dynasty King Pan's residence surnamed Zhu, it is a bit more luxurious.

This is Hou Mu's residence in Xiping, which originated from Mu Ying, the adopted son of Zhu Yuanzhang. Because of his bravery in battle, he made many military achievements. In the 16th year of Hongwu (1383), he enfeoffed Yunnan with the Duke of Pingxi, and later Jin Dynasty was the Duke of Guizhou.

Since then, the Mu family has become the actual master of Yunnan. Up to now, the new mubin has taken over the glory and mission of the family and become the new Duke of Xiping and the Duke of Guizhou.

However, compared with the previous Xiping Hou, mubin encountered not only many problems, but also very big problems. For example, today's chaos once made him unable to sleep at night, and eating was tasteless. The reason is the two emperors' one bright and one dark will.

Needless to say, it was the imperial edict issued by Zhuqi Town, Yingzong of the Southern Ming Dynasty, which intended to calm the chaos in Yunnan.

Dark refers to Zhu Qiyu, the emperor of the northern Ming Dynasty. In the secret decree, it means to let him recognize the situation and return to the embrace of the Daming earlier. As for Yunnan, you can stand by and wait for the chaos to affect the ruling foundation of the supreme emperor. When working together with the northern Ming Dynasty, you can calm the world.

Since the change of civil engineering, when the original Daming was divided into two, mubin began to make difficulties. He didn't know who to listen to.

As the Mu family who have been escorting Zhu's family for generations, they have never had any rebellious heart. From the beginning of the earliest muying, even now mubin holds the same idea.

But the fact that there were two emperors in one country baffled him. And from his point of view, it seems that which is orthodox, which is not, and which is.

Zhu Qizhen was originally the emperor of Yingzong. Although he lost the news because of his disastrous defeat on the battlefield, his emperor identity has always existed. It's not for orthodoxy.

Zhu Qiyu was ordered in the face of danger. After there was no news of the Yingzong emperor, he succeeded as emperor, which played a very positive role in stabilizing the hearts of ministers and the people. He ascended the throne in the northern capital. There was a ceremony and compliance with the law, which can also be said to be orthodox.

Say no.

When Zhu Qizhen came back from the defeat, he should go directly to the capital, but he didn't have the courage. Instead, he went to Nanjing and established Nanming, which seems to have some unorthodox meaning. He even had to take the initiative to split Daming.

Zhu Qiyu is even more so. His throne was originally an expedient measure. It is said that when he learned that there was nothing wrong with Zhu Qi Town, he should take the initiative to give up the throne. But he did not. Instead, he continued to sit on the throne of the emperor, which was somewhat unreasonable. It seemed that it was not orthodox.

The two emperors, who were and were not, baffled mubin. It is this embarrassment that makes the situation in Yunnan worse and worse, so that even if he wants to do his best now, I'm afraid he can't solve the problem.

The most taboo in war is that the coach is not determined. Such a thing is happening to Mu bin. Even the commander-in-chief is like this, not to mention the soldiers below. There is a kind of people who don't know who to listen to, so that they don't know who to fight for in the later stage of development.

I don't even know why. It's strange to say that we can fight this battle well. Even mubin can't believe it.

Because the mind has been wavering and the mind on the battlefield is not firm, the enemy has taken advantage of the loophole. Up to now, he can only settle in a corner and watch it change.

It was at this time that Yingzong's special envoy arrived, and it was Wang Ji, the minister who took the post of Zuo Shilang on behalf of the Minister of military affairs.

According to his advice to Yingzong, now he is divided into three ways to solve things.

The first way of marriage; On the second road, the Mu family became king; The third way paid a lot of money to buy the Miao army.

The first way is far away, and the third way is dangerous. Finally, Wang Ji himself chose the second way, which is safe and dignified. He came to Mu house as a lobbyist to exchange the throne of Mu bin and get the other party to send troops to calm the chaos in Yunnan.

The arrival of Wang Ji, mubin naturally dare not neglect. Although he is a heavy soldier and has a high influence in Yunnan, he is careful to drive the Wannian ship. The reason why the Mu family can continue to this day and hold the military power again has not been speculated by others, is precisely because it is cautious. Usually, when a five grade official of the imperial court comes to Mu mansion, he will receive him personally, not to mention a three grade senior official, who is very likely to become a second grade Shangshu.

In the main hall of Mufu, yinglang gaojun's mubin saw Wang Ji in a second-class official suit and a humble face.

The two sides first met politely, then went to tea and sat down, and looked at each other face to face.

For mubin, Wang Ji is still a little strange. Mu Sheng, who had just died, had some contacts with his father. That is, to talk about things, according to the habits of the Chinese people, it is natural to start with friendship. Wang Ji talked about his past and Mu Sheng.

Someone talked about my father face to face. Mubin naturally listened respectfully and smiled from time to time to show his respect.

For mu Bin's performance, Wang Ji was still very satisfied. When he spoke, the natural topic was involved in the current situation. "... when old Duke Mu Sheng was still alive, Emperor Yingzong praised him more than once. He said that the old Duke was valuable, loyal to the country, brave in battle and won the heart of the emperor. So that when he heard the news of the old Duke's death, he was really sad for several days? Now think about it, it seems that everything happened yesterday. It's really memorable."

"Thanks for the emperor's love for my father. I think my father will laugh and comfort if he knows under the spring." mubin got up to the South and hugged his fist to show his respect.

"Lord Mu is very polite. The emperor not only respects the old Duke, but also attaches great importance to Lord mu. He once said to his ministers more than once that although Lord Mu is young, he does have a bit of the demeanor of the old Duke, and you are young and strong, and you will create more achievements comparable to your ancestors. It is this emphasis that the emperor decided to get rid of different surnames and not be granted the king Please accept Mu Bin's policy. "

As he spoke, Wang Ji's look became so solemn that later, people took the initiative to stand up. I don't know when there is a golden imperial edict with dragon pattern on its back.

"Minister mubin receives the edict." in the face of the edict, whether it is Yingzong or Daizong, mubin has no reason to object. All he can do is kneel down and receive the seal.

"By heaven, the emperor said: Hou mubin of Xiping is young and promising, loyal to the Lord and thinking about the country, and has made outstanding military achievements, which has won my heart. I am grateful for the outstanding contributions made by the Mu family for the Ming Dynasty from generation to generation. I hereby appoint Hou mubin of Xiping as king of Xiping and give me a gold medal..."

For generations, except muying, the first Duke of Xiping, everyone else took the throne when they were alive. Only when they died could they be granted the Duke of Guizhou, which has become a practice. But when he arrived at mubin, he was granted a different surname king and became king of Xiping without doing anything. Although it was said that this term did not say anything about hereditary substitution. But in this move, it is not too much to honor our ancestors.
