Daming, originally wanted to destroy it, but the system came

Chapter 142 Mu Qiu: I will serve His Highness

A few days later, in early December, the battle, which lasted for a full month and covered almost half of Yunnan, finally came to an end.

"At least it won't be delayed until the end of the year, and everyone can have a good New Year," Zhu Zhen couldn't help but sigh with emotion when he saw the gate of Dali City.

It's over, the battle of Dingbian is finally over.

And after this battle, Yunnan can be said to have finally settled down.

Silunfa is the largest force among the remnants of Luchuan. With his demise, and the large and small chieftains who followed him were wiped out by Zhu Chu, there will be no more chieftains to cause rebellion in at least a few decades.

Unless the toasts from other places are causing trouble, such as Guichuan?
Chieftain is a special system established by the Ming Dynasty in areas inhabited by ethnic minorities such as Yunnan, Guizhou, and Guangdong and Guangxi. So far, Zhu Zhen has only faced chieftains in Yunnan.

The influence of chieftains is very complex and vast. It is not like people think that there is only one chieftain for a nation.

Do you really think there were only a dozen or dozens of toasts in Chinese history?
In Yunnan alone, there are more than 300 chieftains who can be said to be worthy of mentioning, and there are still many chieftains who have not been recognized by the imperial court.

This thing is very chaotic. Within a ethnic group, there may be dozens of different tribes and dozens of chieftains.

For example, Nao Tao, Dao Gan Meng, Silun Fa Dao Gan Meng and others are actually from the same ethnic group, seemingly Dai?

But this large clan alone has no less than 100 chieftains, and the clan's living area is spread throughout the southwest, and even reaches Myanmar.

Can you tell the difference?

Even the Mu clan, in addition to Lijiang's big chieftain Mu De, or today's Mu Chu, there are also smaller chieftains below, such as the person in charge of Heqing County, who is a member of the Mu clan and is also a local chieftain.

A lot of this happens.

However, as Zhu Chu killed a lot of chieftains, at least Yunnan was freed from a lot of trouble.

"When I have time, before or after the new year, I'm afraid I will have to inspect the territory, and then rehabilitate the vacant areas of the chieftains as soon as possible," Zhu Zhen secretly planned.

As the army returned, Dali City had already received the news, so it was not panicked by the sudden appearance of this army. Instead, it opened the city gate early. Wang Fu and Li Shuran had already lined the streets outside the city to greet them.

"Zhao Kuo, Muchun, and Mu Sheng, let the troops return to camp first. Mu Chun, let Mu Sheng's troops go to your side first. Zhao Kuo, there are [-] newly recruited soldiers and [-] military household registrations. We all go to your camp first. I will make plans later," Zhu Zhen began to make arrangements.

Then Zhu Chu turned to Mu Chu and said, "Brother Mu, please let people set up camp first and reward them in the evening before going back."

"Oh, I got it," Mu Chu agreed, but when he saw that Mu Qiu was completely unconscious and still following Zhu Chu toward the city gate, he quickly shouted in a low voice: "Mu Qiu."

Mu Qiu was about to turn back.

But I heard Zhu Chu say without looking back: "Ah Qiu, Juliwu, you guys are coming into the city with me."

Mu Qiu immediately followed Zhu Chu into the city without looking back.

"What's going on?" Mu Chu scratched his head with a puzzled look on his face, wondering if His Highness had forgotten it?Mu Qiu is his sister, whose real name is Al Qiu. She is from the Mu family, not from the Curie House group.

Some tribesmen on the left and right came up and said to Mu Chu with a stern look: "Big Chief, is our chieftain's wife going to become a princess?"

Tusi Niang is an honorific title, and Zhu Chu was right before. Within the clan, Mu Qiu could indeed be called a princess, but she definitely couldn't be called that outside.

"Go away," Mu Chu cursed immediately, but his expression was a little worried, even unhappy.

Before, I had tried to use a honey trap, so that I could more smoothly inherit the position of chieftain officer of the Mu family.

But after this battle, the Mu family showed their loyalty. Isn't this better than some honey trap to let Zhu Zhu see the sincerity of their Mu family?

What's more, Zhu Zhen had promised to help him inherit the position of chieftain officer. Mu Chu thought, since this was already the case, why bother to sacrifice his sister again?

It would be best not to involve my sister in this again.

He didn't want to sacrifice his sister's happiness.

However, Aqiu seems to be happy to follow His Highness, so what is going on?Isn't His Highness only 12 years old, so he can't use a honey trap?
This was the hardest thing for Mu Chu to understand.

Putting aside the issue of the army disbanding and recuperating outside the city, as soon as Zhu Ming entered the city, he asked Li Shuran to arrange for people to deliver food, wine, meat and food to several camps. Today only, everyone can eat and drink freely, but they are not allowed to drink too much. If you cause trouble after drinking, you will be punished as you please, and no one will be able to escape.

The camp outside the city suddenly burst into cheers.

In the city, Zhu Zhen, surrounded by Li Shuran, Wang Fu and others, went straight to the palace.

On the road, the streets on both sides were already overcrowded. Countless people spontaneously walked out of their homes. They were curious, but also a little surprised and admired, looking at the prince who was riding a tall horse and looked very heroic.

This scale was even more enthusiastic than when Zhu Chu first came, or there was no way to compare the before and after.

This is the respect that Zhu Zhen has won by relying on his own ability and courage. Isn't this more satisfying than the superficial respect that he gets by relying on his status?

This was an almost impossible victory, and it was also the reward for returning home victoriously.

Zhu Chu rode on his horse and greeted the attention ceremony with a smile.

Although there were not the complicated emotions of the people of Yingjiang City before, nor the cheers of the people of Yongchang Mansion, the people of Dali City looked more in disbelief and full of curiosity.

However, Zhu Chu didn't take it seriously and led a group of guards and less than 1000 strong men from the Juliwu tribe across the street back to his palace.

It wasn't until they entered the palace that the people slowly dispersed as the door of the palace was closed.

But from the street outside, you can still hear a lot of chatter.

"Is that our prince? He is so handsome, and he looks like a strong general who is good at fighting."

"But I heard that our prince is only 12 years old, isn't he? Is this 12 years old?"

"Did you hear that correctly? It should be 20 years old, not 12 years old."

"That's 12 years old."

"Is this 12 years old?"

"That's why I said, this is 12 years old?"

"So he's 20 years old."

"you."

Others were praising: "As expected of the vassal king, if we let those swordsmen attack Dali City violently, all of us Han people would be killed. I heard that those natives are very hateful. They burn, kill, and plunder without committing any evil. They kill men when they cross the chariot shaft." Women were taken away as slaves, and some even had their heads cut off and sacrificed to heaven.”

"But aren't the ones guarding Dali the Mu Chumu clan and Master Li?"

"But didn't His Highness pursue and kill Dao Ganmeng? We don't have to worry anymore."

Even at this time, the storytellers in the nearby teahouse no longer talked about the romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties, but told the story of this battle.

"Everyone, please listen to what I am saying slowly. The Silunfa rebels claimed that they have an army of 80, and they are going to wreak havoc on the whole of Yunnan and flout the laws of the court. His Royal Highness, King Min, did his duty and took the initiative to attack with only tens of thousands of troops."

"Sir, doesn't Silunfa claim to have an army of 30?"

The storyteller rolled his eyes and said, "Don't interrupt, there's also Azibu here."

"That seems to be only 50, right?"

"This is a story, not a true story. You joined the war with His Highness? What's the difference between 50 and 80? Your Highness doesn't have an army of 80, not even 50, only 5," Mr. Storyteller said. The words choked the other party to the point of helplessness.

Let’s not mention what’s going on outside.

Looking at Zhu Chu at this time, after returning to the palace, Zhu Chu stopped pretending and jumped off his horse and ran straight to the backyard.

"Wang Fu, have you prepared hot water?" Zhu Zhen asked.

Wang Fu took the reins and promised, "It's ready for you."

It turned out that during the period of marching and fighting, Zhu Zhen basically didn't take a shower. During the most difficult time, he could only get a piece of cloth to get some water, and then wipe his body.

Although Zhu Xi is not a very clean person and has a mysophobia, the problem is, he recently discovered that he has started to get lice on his body?
Good guy, Zhu Min was so surprised.

Not to mention my previous life, in this life as an eighteenth prince, I have never seen what a louse looks like.

Although this louse is also called a louse, it is not the same thing as the lion. It is an insect that mainly feeds on human blood. I wonder if you are afraid of it.

Zhu Ming had nothing to do these past few nights, so he found a lot of them on his head and in his clothes.

Now that he finally arrived home, he quickly asked Wang Fu to boil water on the way. Now he rushed into a room in the backyard and saw a large wooden barrel in the middle, with a little mist floating around, indicating that someone had helped him boil the hot water. Adjusted.

Zhu Ming took off his clothes as quickly as possible, then jumped directly in.

"Comfortable, refreshing," Zhu Zhen shouted happily.

If he didn't expect to come back, he wouldn't feel tortured. The closer he got to Dali City, the more he felt like returning.

This can be regarded as Zhu Zhen's first march and war. Even as a general, he did not give himself special privileges.In fact, if he wants, he can take a hot bath every night. Others can't, but he has no problem.

But is he here to enjoy it?Are you still here to fight?
Zhu Chu is here to accumulate military merits and gain military morale. He acts like a second-generation ancestor all day long, why not hide in the city?Do you have to drag down the army?

He can still tell which is light and which is serious. The suffering he endures today is just for the enjoyment in the future.

'Crackling'.

There was a soft sound and the door suddenly opened.

"Put the clothes aside," Zhu Zhen lay on his back in the tub of the big wooden tub without looking back. He closed his eyes and enjoyed the pleasure of bathing. He thought it was Wang Fu or his soldiers who had brought clothes to him.

Now that the war is over, there is no need to shout slogans such as wearing the same clothes as your son. At the same time, it is also time to change into your own luxurious clothes. Those clothes are more comfortable.

And as winter approaches and the weather gets cooler, it’s time to add thicker layers of clothing.

Zhu Ming was still thinking about it and asked Li Shuran and Wang Fu for their suggestions on how to prepare winter clothes for the army camp.

But the footsteps came slowly from far to near.

Zhu Zhen was stunned. Could it be that someone wanted to assassinate him?The guys from the Curie House?
He sat up with a clatter, opened his eyes and turned his head to look, only to be stunned.

"Aqiu? Why did you come in?" Zhu Ming raised his hands to cover his chest in embarrassment, and then thought something was wrong. His actions should have been done by Aqiu, but it was not good to let go of his hands again.

Mu Qiu Qiao looked at Zhu Xi with a charming smile, lowering his eyes and quickly scanning Zhu Xi's strong figure.

The last time Zhu Chu strengthened his attributes, his height increased by more than ten centimeters overnight.

And the latest time, he has greatly strengthened his attributes, causing his originally thin and tall figure to suddenly expand a lot. Although there are no scary stone-like muscle lumps, every muscle is perfect.

The eight-pack abs and mermaid lines, as well as the biceps and chest muscles, are all missing, especially the muscles on the back, which look more like a pair of wings.

Mu Qiu's eyes were a little straightened, his pretty face turned red and he looked at Zhu Chu, unable to move his eyes away.

"Hey, hey, hey, you came here to tease me?" Zhu Ming was so angry. Did he meet a female gangster?

Mu Qiu finally came to his senses. First he gave Zhu Chu an angry look, and then put down a pile of luxurious services in his hands, which were just a change of clothes prepared for Zhu Chu.

Then Zhu Chu discovered that although Mu Qiu was not naked, he was also wearing a thin shirt. Even his figure was vaguely visible. He couldn't help but widen his eyes and said with a burning heart: "What are you doing?"

Mu Qiu was also a little dazed: "I'll give you a back rub. I heard Wang Fu say that there are only a bunch of guards in your house, not even a single maid or maid, and there are no eunuchs to serve you. Wang Fu is taking care of your daily life. How can this work?"

Then you come?
Zhu Ming was so embarrassed that he said repeatedly: "No, no need, just let Wang Fu rub it for me. Wang Fu? Damn, where did you die?"

Outside the courtyard door, Wang Fu leaned against the courtyard door and turned a deaf ear to the sounds coming from the courtyard.

"Actually, the prince is also very miserable. It is obvious that other vassal princes are in the vassal. The younger ones are even accompanied by their mothers and concubines, or they bring their own princesses and family members. His majesty even personally selects the servants, so meticulous that even the chef can prepare them. But our prince Although he is young, he has nothing, and he has always been taken care of by me, a big boss. Alas, it's time for someone to carry the urinal for him," Wang Fu thought, raising his head, looking like he was about to cry but had no tears.

You just don’t want to carry Zhu Chu’s urinal, right?

Looking at that room again, Zhu Chu was still trying to shirk, dodging in the bathtub to prevent Mu Qiu from touching him.

"Your Highness, do you dislike us natives so much?" Mu Qiu lowered his head with a look of grievance on his face. He looked so petty, not to mention that he was very pitiful.

She was already good-looking, with delicate facial features and a slim figure. Now she looked at her feet with such sad eyes, even Zhu Zhen couldn't bear it, thinking that she was some kind of bad person.

Fortunately, Zhu Chu had seen Mu Qiu's heroic demeanor when he went into battle to kill the enemy, so he would not be fooled. He said angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about? I know you are worried that I will also reform the Mu family, but Didn't I promise you that I wouldn't do it? I won't be ungrateful."

As a result, Mu Qiu shook his head: "That's not the case."

"What is that?" Zhu Zhen was a little irritated, mainly because Mu Qiu suddenly came in and made such a fuss, which made Zhu Zhen really confused.

Mu Qiu raised his head, looked at Zhu Zhen with a sad smile, and said slowly: "Your Highness, if I say that I like you, it would be a bit exaggerated and sudden. But please think about it, Your Highness, my father is dead, and I will be next. The eldest brother has inherited the position of chieftain. What about me? Where should I go?"

"Just find someone in the clan to marry? Others may not be qualified to marry me."

"Then what should I do? You can only marry me off to someone else. But I already know that you have great ambitions. I'm afraid that in the future you will really make there no more chieftains in Yunnan."

"Then what can I do? I can stay in the clan and help my elder brother, but I am a woman after all. I can't live without getting married, right? What's more."

Mu Qiu looked deeply at Zhu Chu. Although Zhu Chu was not known for his appearance, he was still a man of talent and good looks, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes, a perfectly masculine style.

Mu Qiu took a deep breath and summoned up the courage to say: "Besides, after seeing your style, how can I be willing to accommodate you again."

Zhu Ming was secretly proud, but also dumbfounded: "Am I still responsible for you? But I'm only 12 years old, eldest sister."

What's going on with this little girl?Could it be that she was already obsessed with herself?
Although it was quite refreshing to hear her say that.

"Just let me stay by your side to serve you, even if I am a maid who brings you tea and water to wipe your back, as long as you don't dislike me," Mu Qiu had already begged.

Zhu Zhen sighed and lowered his head again. He could vaguely see through the water
In fact, he was really only 12 years old, and before that, he was really powerless.

But there is a turning point. After his latest attribute improvement, as his physical attributes improved all aspects of his physical fitness, Zhu Xi found that his body had completely matured prematurely.

This is like an apple that originally bore fruit early when it was in bloom, and then ripened early. How did this happen?

If Mu Qiu saw this, it would be over.

"Your Highness, am I really that unsightly?" Mu Qiu suddenly took a step forward and was already standing in front of the barrel, only one step away from Zhu Chu.

Moreover, Mu Qiu lowered his head shyly, but happened to look at the same place as Zhu Chu.

Mu Qiu suddenly raised his head, looking at Zhu Zhen with surprise, shyness, and some expectancy.

Zhu Chu also slowly raised his head and looked at Mu Qiu helplessly.

"Aren't you 12 years old?"

"You listen to my explanation."

"Aren't you overly motivated but lacking in energy?"

"It's not what you think."

"Your Highness."

"You get out first, or I'm going to call someone."

"That's my line, right?"

The two of them started to be pretentious.

In fact, Zhu Chu understood that Mu Qiu's status was somewhat embarrassing.

If she were a boy, it would be okay. As long as she didn't compete with her brother Mu Chu for status, she would be the second in command of the Mu family and Mu Chu's most capable right-hand man.

But she happened to be born as a girl. As a woman, she had many inconveniences in ancient times.

Even in Yunnan, even the chieftain family still has a lot of inconveniences for women.

Just like what Mu Qiu himself told frankly.

After meeting the vassal king Zhu Zhen, if she were asked to find someone in the clan whose status was not as good as her own, and whose abilities and force were even inferior to her own, would she agree with her arrogant heart?

Or should we let her get married?

The problem is that Mu Qiu has been by Zhu Chu's side these days and has already figured out Zhu Chu's intention to reform Yunnan.

Going to get married now?You might as well join the Fruit Party in [-].

Of course, this is just a joke, don’t take it seriously.

At this time, Mu Qiu knew very well that the opportunity must never come again. If she waits to reward the entire army today, she will have to follow her elder brother back to Lijiang, where the Mu clan belongs, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. By then, her fate will be different. Resigned to fate, it can only be decided by the eldest brother.

But Mu Qiu didn't want to miss this opportunity, so she boldly leaned forward.

She was already standing next to the barrel and leaned forward.

"Your Highness, please keep the slave family by your side."

Zhu Chuxin said,

But what the hell is going on? Damn it.

(PS: Give you some benefits? But I don’t dare to write too many erotic scenes, for fear that I won’t be able to distribute them.

Mainly, if Mu Qiu didn't stay, he would be scolded, right?That must not let her go.Moreover, since Mu Qiu already knew that she would be reborn, she naturally could not trust Zhu Chu to take extra care of the Mu family. She also had her own considerations.However, I have to say that Mu Qiu is not the number one heroine.At least not the royal empress. )
