Bright Spring

The woman said: "I don't know. Your Highness has such a big battle to catch people, I'm afraid she won't come back again."

Only then did Zhu Gaoxu ask: "Just now you said that we are not enemies, why?"

The woman looked up at Zhu Gaoxu, and after a while she said: "I am from the Bai tribe, Duan Yang, who lives in Dali. The other people you arrested were originally named Duan, but now they have changed their surname to Liu. Your people are searching The house should be able to find something to prove it."

Hearing this, Zhu Gaoxu seemed to understand a little bit, so he asked casually, "What does Madam Duan mean, do you have a personal enmity with the Mu family?"

This remark angered Duan Yang, she was suddenly very angry, and her face changed: "Your Highness, don't you know what Mu Ying did in Dali?!"

Zhu Gaoxu froze for a moment.He probably still knew that it was nothing more than the destruction of the Dali political power, the reform of the land and the direct integration of Yunnan into the territory of the Ming Dynasty.But how did Zhu Gaoxu know what he did?

He asked, "What did you do?"

Duan Yang gave Zhu Gaoxu a cold look, "It is said that Yuan people are cruel|ruthless, but Mu Ying is even worse than Yuan people! As soon as Mu Ying arrived in Dali, she first escorted the general manager of Dali and her family to Nanjing to claim credit. Then persecute Duan's clan relatives on the charge of crimes, and if there is a little resistance, they will be massacred! They will also burn the classics and documents of the Duan family, dig up their ancestors' graves, and force the people of Dali to speak Chinese and use Chinese characters..."

Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help defending his own people at the moment: "Unification of the world is the general trend. King Qianning may have something bad, and his merits and demerits will be discussed by future generations. The naturalization of the natives, the cessation of fighting, everyone has become a family. People, it is not a bad thing to live together in harmony on the land of China. Mrs. Duan is a woman, why bother to worry about military and state affairs, and what can the few of you change?

The war is over and Dali has returned to peace.The imperial court is adjusting the national policy to appease Bai Minsheng, so that they can live a good life in the future. "

Duan Yang was trembling with anger, staring at Zhu Gaoxu's gaze made him feel familiar, those eyes were like an abyss, only filled with unfathomable hatred.She teared up and said: "My late husband did not rebel! His only fault was because he was the brother of the chief executive of Dali! My late husband believed in the Lord of Buddha and only loved reading in his life. He was kind-hearted, kind and humble, and cherished his reputation and face. He didn't lead troops to fight against the Ming army, what's wrong with him? Why did he slaughter|kill our whole family..."

Zhu Gaoxu stood there in a daze.

Duan Yang gritted her teeth, but there was no tear in her eyes, she was a bit emotionally broken, "In front of our clansman, Mu Ying asked people to insult and insult him in vernacular, slandering him with irrelevant incest Come on, burn his face with a hot iron! I risked my life to hide in the crowd, and I saw everything with my own eyes, and they couldn’t deny it! Mu Ying watched it face to face, and was still talking and laughing with the generals.

Dare to ask the King of Han, are these matters just official affairs?It is a big deal for Mu Ying to lead troops to destroy our country and seize my land, but he humiliated|killed my relatives, this is a deep hatred, and I will find the blood of the Mu family to pay back my blood every day I live!Even if you die and become a ghost, you will never give up!

The soldering iron burned my husband's face, just like it burned my heart!My heart is dead, only hate.

That cruel laughter resounds in my heart every day and every night. I must hear Mu Ying cry, scream, and beg for mercy.I want them to have a taste of that..."

Duan Yang struggled desperately while muttering, and then he started talking indiscriminately, speaking vernacular that Zhu Gaoxu could not understand.

Gradually her face contorted and became terribly frightening.When she was struggling, the rope tore through her sleeves, and the white cotton cloth was stained with bloodstains.

With such crazy violence, Zhu Gaoxu didn't think any words could comfort her, so he could only wait.

After an unknown amount of time, Duan Yang gasped for breath, and finally gradually calmed down.Her hatred and resentment were gone, only her cold body was left, as if she was a walking dead. /p>Her eyes were pale, without any emotion, without any fluctuation, like a dead abyss.

Zhu Gaoxu did not rashly comment on her matter, but kept silent.

He thought to himself: When is it time to repay the injustice?Thousands of years of history, not only a certain ethnic group has blood and tears.

During the Yuan Dynasty, the Han people must have been worse than the Bai people!The Han people are the lowest class, lower than all the natives, even the Semu people, and exist like two-legged sheep.After the Ming Dynasty resumed the rule of the Han family, it may be because of the indignation of that experience, it was indeed very tough towards the chieftain and other ethnic groups at first, and it may also have the heart of revenge.Now many natives have begun to resent the Ming people again, and they don't know when the vendetta will end.

But these Zhu Gaoxu did not say it, only the mentality of a weak country and few people can say that he was bullied by the reactionary feudal rulers of the Yuan Dynasty; it is no longer necessary now, because the remnants of the rulers of the Yuan Dynasty are trembling on the grassland .And many of the Mongols and Bai people are already Ming people.

After a long silence, Duan Yang said first: "I am not the enemy of the King of Han. We have a common enemy, and that is the Mu family!"

Zhu Gaoxu didn't want to be honest, so he immediately argued: "Mu Sheng is the Marquis of Xiping granted by the Ming court, and I am the Prince of Ming, how can I be an enemy?"

Duan Yang said coldly: "Back then, Liang Wang was entrusted to Yunnan in the Yuan Dynasty, and he wanted to annex Dali and dominate Yunnan alone. The King of Han doesn't want to hold the entire land of Yunnan? Humph!"

"Uh!" Zhu Gaoxu was speechless, he found that although Duan Yang was a woman, she knew a lot.

Of course Zhu Gaoxu wants to swallow Yunnan!Turn Yunnan into his own territory, and then mobilize the army to support himself... If you think too much, the prince of the court | the party will bring his abacus to his father, and beat him loudly; Emperor Zhu Di would also be very suspicious of Zhu Gaoxu's intentions.

At this time, Zhu Gaoxu did not raise troops blatantly, and because of this, he was not hit hard by the Ming court; of course, at the same time, he could not act arbitrarily.Even if he wants to expand his strength, he has to cover it up and do it better.

If you want to seize control of Yunnan by annexing the Mu Mansion, Zhu Gaoxu cannot do this!

Duan Yang said: "Now we are too weak to form an alliance with the King of Han? But I have an important piece of news that can be traded."

"What news?" Zhu Gaoxu asked with interest.

Duan Yang said: "If I tell the King of Han, the King of Han will let me go?"

Zhu Gaoxu muttered, "I have to see what news."

Duan Yang said: "News from Emperor Jianwen."

Zhu Gaoxu suddenly showed surprise and stared at her for a while.

"Does the King of Han believe it?" Duan Yang asked.

Zhu Gaoxu was noncommittal.

It's not that he doesn't believe it at all... The most likely place for Emperor Jianwen to come is Yunnan!The world is already ruled by the King Yan family. For Emperor Jianwen, there are dangers on all sides. He wants to hide after leaving Beijing, and the first choice is a place with acquaintances to support him.Just like when Zhu Gaoxu went out to work in his previous life, he also wanted to contact relatives and friends in an unfamiliar city before going there, otherwise he would feel a lot of insecurity in his heart.

Father Emperor Zhu Di seemed to have figured out this possibility, so he sent Zhu Gaoxu and Hu Wei to Yunnan together, and explicitly ordered them to find Jianwen's whereabouts!

Chapter 2: Six Meridian Excalibur

/ P>

Last year, Lian Ying assassinated Yongle Emperor Zhu Di, rode straight at Zhu Di with a sharp weapon, and was cut into a pulp in an instant; Zhu Di certainly didn't feel threatened, what was angry was Lian Ying's attitude of not supporting him.

Today, when Zhu Gaoxu was assassinated, the target was not him, but he really felt threatened!

Therefore, apart from being interested in Duan Yang's inside story, Zhu Gaoxu still has that assassin in his heart.

He then said: "I am still confused, I hope Mrs. Duan can clarify. Since Mrs. Duan has a deep hatred for the Mu family, why did she rashly send an assassin to assassinate Mu Xiaoniang? Mu Xiaoniang is a teenage girl. What's the use of killing her?"

Duan Yang frowned and said, "Then Miss Mu's name is Mu Zhen, Xue Hen wants to kill her? That's not what I meant."

"Xuehen... Duan Xuehen?" Zhu Gaoxu read it again.

Duan Yang said: "There is one thing I have to tell the King of Han. I originally had an arrangement to let Xuehen infiltrate Mu's residence, then try to seduce Mu Sheng with beauty, and then take the opportunity to assassin|kill Mu Sheng. But Xuehen did not approve of this Even if it is false, she is not willing to commit herself to Qiu Kou.

So Xue hates doing things on his own, lurking near the Liyuan, intending to kill Mu Sheng in the Liyuan, and using this method to achieve my goal... King Han didn't know that Mu Sheng would go to the Liyuan every ten and a half months. "

Zhu Gaoxu thought, I know.But he didn't need to tell Duan Yang, so he nodded and said, "Yes."

Duan Yang continued: "Xue Hen would not do anything to Mu Zhen, but something happened, which may make her feel that there will be no chance to kill Mu Sheng in Liyuan, so she decided to kill Mu Zhen first. Anyway, Mu Zhen Zhen is also from the Mu family."

Zhu Gaoxu asked, "What happened?"

Mrs. Duan Yang replied: "The beekeepers in Liuba Village. There are only large areas of Rhododendrons outside Liuba Village. Xue Hen said that there are very few beekeepers looking for Rhododendrons to collect honey. I think those beekeepers are very strange. But I was careless and trusted my own judgment too much, no one ever found out my whereabouts.

So when Xuehen told me that she was going to assassinate Mu Sheng, I still stayed in Liuba Village, thinking that after something happened, it would be safer there.Otherwise it would be difficult to find a better hiding place. "

"Awesome!" Zhu Gaoxu couldn't help sighing, "The blue is better than the blue. Duan Xuehen is Mrs. Duan's daughter?"

"Exactly." Duan Yang bowed his head.

Zhu Gaoxu suddenly asked: "Can Duan Xuehen know the Six Meridians Excalibur?"
