In this way, the matter of the Prime Minister will be solved, and if it is not appropriate to wait until a few years to make adjustments.?
Yunxi then looked at Zhu Zhen and asked: "Uncle Eighteen, is there anything you can't decide on your own and want to discuss with us? You have been a vassal for three years, right? Who else knows more about western Yunnan than you?"
?”
Zhu Song and Shang Bing also said the same thing.
Zhu Zhen said: "How do you know what is going on?"
"Western Yunnan and Myanmar are different from the northeast and northwest."
"In the northwest region, after the Mongols invaded Xixia, the people of Xixia died a lot. Fu Xingqing was slaughtered by the Mongols because of where Temujin died. There was no big local power. Wait until the Western Regions
, it’s just a matter of making good friends with the local Mongolians, we don’t have that much power.”
"This is especially true in the Northeast. After driving away the local Mongols, only the Jurchen tribes that were dispersed during the Wokuotai period were left. They are all barbarians and easy to fool."
"It's different in the land of Myanmar in western Yunnan. The local tribes are complicated and the mountains are steep. More importantly, they also received some education during the Dali Kingdom, so it's even more difficult to deal with."
"I want the emperor to make up his mind whether to use the Duan family or not."
"The Duan family?" Yunxi asked, "Is it the Duan family that founded the Dali Kingdom?"
Zhu Ming said: "That's the Duan family. And they not only owned the Dali Kingdom, but after Dali was destroyed by the Mongols, the Mongols selected people from the Duan family to be the general manager of Dali, assisting King Aruwen of Liang to guard Yunnan.
I, the Ming Dynasty, invaded Yunnan."
"The Duan family of Dali has been guarding Yunnan for more than four hundred years. Although I, the Ming Dynasty, have tried hard to eliminate the influence of the Duan family, how can it be so easy? Now, although the leaders of each Xuanwei department know about the Ming Dynasty, there are still many people below who only know about the Ming Dynasty.
Duan, I don’t know about the Ming Dynasty.”
"Although the country of Dali is small, it is based in the southwest after all. It has had contacts with the surrounding tribes and the Fan Kingdom. It has only been more than ten years since the end of General Duan's period. Those tribes and the Fan Kingdom still know the Duan family."
"If you want to open up the situation in Myanmar in western Yunnan as quickly as possible, then appointing the Duan family is the best way."
Zhu Song said: "There is nothing more to say, just use the Duan family."
Zhu Ming said: "Listen to me."
"But appointing the Duan family has its own consequences. Moreover, if the Duan family is not given enough benefits, it is hard to say how much effort they are willing to make."
Yunxi knew why Zhu Zhen was so entangled. The Duan family is not big now but its roots are still deep. If they can turn around and wait until Zhu Zhen dies, the successors will not be able to suppress the Duan family. I am afraid they will become something like the high-ranking officials in the middle period of Dali Kingdom.
The relationship between the Duan family and the Duan family. And by the time Zhu Zhen died, Yunxi was older than Zhu Zhen. It is estimated that Yunxi had also passed away. What if the successor emperor was not interested in the affairs of the vassal state? Even if the Ming Dynasty is here
, they would not dare to usurp the throne, but it would be uncomfortable to be a puppet.
Yunxi stood up and walked around a few times. He had an idea and was about to say something. When he saw Shang Bing, he seemed to have something to say and said, "Shang Bing, what do you think? Give Uncle Eighteen some advice."
.”
Shang Bing said: "Brother Emperor, Uncle Eighteen, in my opinion, we still have to use the Duan family. The land of Myanmar in western Yunnan has not been subject to the king's rule for a long time, and the terrain is complicated. Unlike my northwest, those who are not convinced can just conquer it."
"In the southwest, if a tribe goes to the mountains to find a cat, they may not be able to find it even if they send a hundred thousand troops without the help of the local people. They still need to care first and then suppress it."
"Since we want to be cared for, then according to what Uncle Eighteen just said, it is most appropriate to use the Duan family. We must let them contribute to ensure the rule of the Min Kingdom in Myanmar in western Yunnan."
"However, there are many ways to do this. You must not let the Duan family be the king or prime minister. You can only set it up high but not give too much real power. Fortunately, there is still a central court in the Ming Dynasty in Min. As long as the emperor cooperates, We can ensure that the Duan family does not gain power without hiding their grievances against Uncle Eighteen."
"And the Duan family can't be monolithic, fighting one faction after another. In short, we can't let the Duan family be of the same mind. Now that the Duan family is in a difficult situation, there are always people who are willing to give up everything they know in order to have a better life. "
"The other thing is to use the power of the Marquis of Xiping. The Marquis of Xiping has been guarding Yunnan for more than ten years. The King of Qianning and the Duke of Guizhou (referring to Muchun) are also quite prestigious in their campaigns in the east and the west. They can be used to leverage the power of others. The enemy is the Duan family. It is a pity that the Duke of Guizhou has passed away this year. After all, Mu Sheng fought less, otherwise it would have been better."
Mu Chun died of illness in August this year on the way to conquer Qianmeng. He was only 36 years old. Yunxi learned the news in mid-September, and then ordered Mu Chun to be granted the title of Duke of Qian, with the posthumous title of Huixiang, and Mu Chun was granted the title of Duke of Qian, with the posthumous title of Huixiang. After Chun's body arrived in the capital, he followed the etiquette of Mu Ying and Lan Yu's funeral and personally mourned Mu Chun, wearing mourning clothes for three days.
Later, because Mu Chun had no children, he granted Mu Sheng the title of Marquis of Xiping, and ordered Mu Sheng to rush to Yunnan to do so. He Fuzai was now leading Mu Chun's army, and he didn't know what was going on. Yunxi was very worried about him.
"In the end, the Zhu family replaced the Duan family to increase the influence of the Min Kingdom. Gradually, the Duan family was of little use. Even if the Duan family was not abandoned for the sake of reputation, their rights could be reduced. With the central court standing behind it, the Duan family Unlike the Gao family, they dare to make any big moves."
"Brother Imperial, Uncle Eighteen, Uncle Twentieth, this is my opinion."
After listening to Shang Bing's opinion, Yunxi praised: "Brother King Qin is indeed good. Brother Huang, this is my opinion. In this hurry, I can't think of anything else."
Then he said to Zhu Zhen: "Let's rely on Shang Bing's opinion to deal with it. However, in the rush, there may be some flaws. Please pay attention to correct it."
Zhu Chu said: "Yes, Your Majesty."
"Also," Yunxi warned Zhu Ming again: "I heard that you and Mu Sheng have a bad relationship, which is unacceptable. You command the land of Myanmar in western Yunnan, and the Mu family commands the rest of the Yunnan army. Do you want to It’s better to reconcile.”
But even though he said this, Yunxi would be worried if Zhu Sheng really got along with Mu Sheng and put on a pair of trousers. Yunxi had no intention of entrusting the whole of Yunnan to Zhu Sheng.
However, Zhu Xi might not have been a real king yet, so he couldn't guess Yun Xi's deep-seated worries, and said: "I know, I will definitely get along well with the Mu family."
After the matter was decided, Yunxi discussed with them for a while and said: "Since you are here in the palace, just follow me around the palace. Especially you, Shang Bing, your brothers are all in the Royal Academy. As for studying, I heard that you didn't go to see them either? That's not okay, they will be your helpers from now on, so you still have to pay more attention to them."
After listening to Yunxi's words, several people who were planning to resign followed Yunxi and came to the Royal Academy to take a look.
When Yunxi and others came to the Royal Academy, they were taking a military strategy course, taught by Cao Zhen, Marquis of Jingchuan. However, the actual content was not much different from the art of war course. They just added different opinions from different teachers.
Yunxi and the three of them were watching from the glass window on the side. Yunxi pointed to Zhu Shanglie who was sitting very close to the front and said: "Shanglie, I have been here several times. For any martial arts class or military strategy class, he
They are all the most serious." Then he said to Shang Bing: "This can help you fight with soldiers. I remember that you are not very good at military strategy, nor are you good at martial arts."
Shang Bing said: "It's true that I'm not good at martial arts. I really don't have the talent."
Yunxi interjected: "If you don't have talent, you are just lazy."
Shang Bing said with a smile: "Yes, yes, I can't get up in the morning, I am lazy. But I don't accept the military strategy. I am a person who has fought in the war. The year before last, I have led soldiers to fight in the war, and I have achieved great results."
Quite abundant.”
They laughed and talked for a few words. Zhu Ming pointed to a man of fourteen or fifteen years old who was tinkering with something and said: "I remember he is Shang Yu. He is a very good person. Why don't you listen in class? What if?
I did this when I was in school, and if my husband told my father, I would be spanked."
Yunxi said: "Shang Yu is not interested in fighting, but he has his own unique insights in governing politics. He is very powerful. He can be used to govern the place in the future."
Then he said to Zhu Chu: "As for spanking, this is a good method. Shang Bing, as the eldest brother, it is up to you to punish Shang Yu."
Zhu Song said: "This glass is really a good thing. It is really clear from the outside to the inside. With glass, there is no need to light the lamp during the day."
Then he said to Yunxi: "How about it? Tell us how to make the glass. We will definitely not tell anyone."
How could Yunxi announce it? This is the only craftsman project he currently has that is profitable. Although he is the emperor, if he wants to support other scientific research, he has to ask for money from the Ministry of Household Affairs. Although the income of Huangzhuang is rich
, but he can’t spend it all. So he will never give up this cash cow. Nowadays, craftsmen who know how to make glass are closely guarded for fear of being pried away.
So Yunxi made a joke. They knew that Yunxi would not let go, so they pretended to be a joke and passed by.
After a while, get out of class ended, and all the princes came out one after another, and then saluted Yunxi. They were in class inside, and they had already seen Yunxi and the others outside the window.
Yunxi said: "Shang Yu, come out."
Then the young man who had been tinkering with something just now came out with a bitter look on his face.
Yunxi said: "Shang Yu, this is a compulsory course that I have chosen. If you don't listen well today, I should punish you. However, your eldest brother is here today, and it will be up to you when your eldest brother goes back in the evening.
punish you."
Shang Yu's face became even more bitter. If Yun He punished him, it would actually be okay. Yun He did not advocate the use of corporal punishment, especially for brothers, so apart from the fact that they would be unhappy because they would have to retake this course next year, it would actually be okay.
But Shang Bing is different. Seriously, Shang Yu is most afraid of Shang Bing.
