Hao Fenglou was eating tea slowly, and there was really nothing to be remembered about in several famous scenic spots in Shenglong.

The edict of King Annan was not beyond Hao Fenglou's expectations. He even smiled and put it aside after seeing the edict.

The ending was not beyond Hao Fenglou's expectations, and he was fooled.

But he was not angry. It was not that his spirit was suddenly sublimated, but that Hao Fenglou knew that in this game, it was not who was more reasonable, but who had more trump cards in his hand.

The reason why Chen Tianping dared to do this was, on the one hand, that he had seized the other party's handle and suppressed a group of powerful officials from Annan headed by Li Rui in the name of suppressing the anti-Ming Dynasty. This was justified. At the same time, he reduced the rewards on the grounds that the domestic opposition was too loud, leaving nothing to say to the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, more importantly, Chen Tianping had a trump card. He understood that the Ming Dynasty needed him. Once he was finished, the Ming Dynasty would find it difficult to control the situation in Annan. In the end, Annan was filled with wars everywhere. The Ming army could not always guard the 100,000 troops here, and it was impossible for it to consume a large amount of money and grain in Annan.

This is his trump card. As long as one day, the Ming Dynasty needs his underwater magic needle, he will have to indulge him.

The aristocratic families and officials of the Annan people were never willing to accept the rule of the Ming Dynasty. After all, the Chen family was a royal family. No matter how it was, everyone could endure it.

When he received the edict, Hao Fenglou's first thought was to rush into the palace and beat Chen Tianping up, but... Hao Fenglou gradually calmed down.

A hot pot of boiling water directly poured into the teacup. The tea leaves rolled in the water. Clouds rose and fog finally turned into a fragrance. Hao Fenglou put down the kettle. He crossed his legs and pondered for a long time. Finally, he picked up the teacup and took a sip. As a fragrance entered his mouth, Hao Fenglou couldn't help but shake his head comfortably. When he put the teacup down, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Chen Tianping, Chen Tianping. You are still wrong after all. Yesterday can save you, tomorrow can kill you. Today can make you laugh. Tomorrow can make you cry. The trump card in your hand will not last long..."

Hao Fenglou sat steadily, suddenly felt a little ridiculous, and finally shook his head. He greeted the guard outside and said, "Tell General Mu. I said I will go to pay homage later. Also, I have some letters and memorials here. You can ask someone to send them out later."

As he grew up, Hao Fenglou calmly and calmly. After an hour, Hao Fenglou brought his hands behind his back to West Lake with Mu Sheng.

There are also pleasure boats on the West Lake, as if they want to imitate the style of the water towns in Jiangnan. Unfortunately, this pleasure boat seems a bit petty. Although the singers playing and singing on the pleasure boat have a look, they always lack such a little outspoken temperament.

The surrounding guards were wearing plain clothes and were scattered around on guard. Hao Fenglou stood on the shore and waved to the pleasure boat. The pleasure boat seemed to be seen by someone, and immediately put down a small boat and someone came paddling.

The boat was docked, and the people on the boat said a few words in Annan dialect.

Hao Fenglou couldn't understand, and the boatman looked at Hao Fenglou and Mu Sheng in their regular clothes, and his face suddenly became unkind. He recognized the other party's identity, which was a Han. The boatman immediately glanced at the two of them viciously, but he didn't do business and rode away from the shore and headed towards the pleasure boat.

Hao Fenglou couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This man hates me so much, General Mu, which shows that although Annan is pacified, there are still many obstacles. Those who are forced to do business because they are Han people, and it can also show that Annan people are unruly."

"Yes." Mu Sheng has not been in a good mood these days. He is still wearing a Lun scarf, shaking a fan on his hand, but he is a bit literary. He is walking on the long lift on the shore, and he said, "It's ridiculous. They imitate the Central Plains everywhere. Everyone wears the clothes of Han people, and writes Chinese characters. Daily daily life is closely related to us, but why are they disunited? The Ming Dynasty believes that there is no place to be sorry for them. Could it be that the Hu family's rebellion party is endless?"

Mu Sheng's feelings came from the heart. There were willow trees on the shore. It was winter and the willow leaves were withered and yellow. Mu Sheng casually broke a yellow willow leaves in his hand, revealing a little worry.

Hao Fenglou pursed his lips and said, "I wonder what the general has to say?"

Mu Sheng shook his head and said, "I don't understand. There are also natives in Yunnan. These natives may not be able to communicate with us verbally, and even their customs are very different from those of the Han people. However, after several suppression, most of them will be tamed. If the government is not too harsh, they will never dare to cause trouble. Although there are rifts with the Han people, they will not have seen this today."

Hao Fenglou smiled and said, "I know some reasons in a humble way."

"Oh?" Mu Sheng looked at Hao Fenglou with bright eyes, obviously wanting to hear what unique insights Hao Fenglou has.

Hao Fenglou said: "Sir, the Annan people are not actually rebellious. They are no different from the Han people. Most people even have similar customs and are in harmony with the Han people. During the Qin and Han dynasties, this place was originally Jiaozhou, and it was the territory of our Han Han. Even if it was said to be in harmony, it was not an exaggeration."

"But the reason why they hate us is not the people in Annan. The people in Annan are no different from the people in the Ming Dynasty. For them, having clothes and food is the right thing. As for what kind of family, country and the world are not what they are concerned about. But what about the princes and nobles in Annan? Just like the Confucian scholars in Annan, the Confucian scholars also practiced the Four Books and Five Classics, and also the ways of Confucius and Mencius. They speak pure Chinese Mandarin and learned Wang Youjun's copybooks. Logically speaking, they should be closest to the Ming Dynasty. In fact, they are a group of people who are the Han people. They are afraid of us because in Annan, they are talented as Jinshi and are enough to uphold national affairs. But if this is Jiaozhi, the ink in their belly can be obtained by the test.

The scholar is already Amitabha. There are those nobles, and the nobles in these places have their own interests. How can they let others share their own benefits with them? They are the local emperors here, but once the Han people come, what will they do to equalize us? Needless to say, the royal family has inherited from generation to generation, which is their foundation, and they cannot give up people. So for them, they are both envious and afraid of the Han people. While they learn from the Han people, they have to be careful. In order to prevent the people from being disinterested, the Confucian scholars inevitably educated and instilled the mentality of hatred against the Han people. The nobles sealed the people, making the natives in Annan have an unknown fear of the Han people."

"The truth of the matter lies not in the facts themselves, but in what the Confucian scholars said, and in what the princes and nobles of Annan were instilled. Chen Tianping... Because he saw through this, although we helped him restore the country this time, he would secretly incite some anti-Han remarks in the future, and on the other hand, he would use these anti-Ning voices to win over you and me. The facts in this world are ridiculous, but even if they are so ridiculous, what can it be?"

Mu Sheng said: "Chen Tianping is afraid that this person has a big plan. He may still rely on the Heavenly Kingdom now, but in time, he will get richer..."

Hao Fenglou's eyes turned cold, he stopped on the long dike, looked at Mu Sheng deeply, and said, "General, he will not have a day when his wings are getting richer!"

Mu Sheng couldn't help but say, "What, do you want to do it?"

Hao Fenglou smiled and said, "If he was willing to be obedient, it would be impossible to attack him, but once he was stubborn, he would have to do it."

"But... without him, Annan is afraid it's not easy to deal with. Hao Fenglou, I will open the skylight to speak with you. Your Majesty ascended the throne. This battle of Annan is the first battle. To put it bluntly, this is the face of Your Majesty. Your Majesty will never allow Annan to fall into civil strife and destroy all previous efforts. So you should be careful. Otherwise, once the wars that Annan has spread everywhere, even if Your Majesty does not blame him, all the officials will impeach them one after another."

Hao Fenglou smiled slightly and said, "General Xie reminded that if you are not in a position of love, you will definitely do things beautifully. In fact, Husband is here to say goodbye today. At present, Shenglong is doing nothing. Since Chen Tianping has enfeoffed the four counties of the host road to the host road, Husband always has to go and see it. It is really boring to stay here, so Husband wants to leave for Lang San and the host road in a few days."

Mu Sheng smiled bitterly and said, "General Zhang refused to come to Shenglong and still stayed in Maizhou. But you came here, but you used this as an excuse to make a big fuss. I was alone, but I still had to deal with Chen Tianping.... I had to bite the bullet and go here. Don't worry. However... Now Annan is at least a great decisive. It won't take long to withdraw most of the troops. When the imperial edict arrives, I am afraid that I can't stay for a long time. I should take these soldiers back to Yunnan. At that time, you shouldn't want to hide, and you will have to return to Shenglong."

Hao Fenglou looked at Mu Sheng. He felt that this general who pretended to be gentle not only did not make people disgusted, but also made people feel close. After these days of contact, he was a little reluctant to part. Hao Fenglou simply bowed and said, "See the order."

"Ha..." Mu Sheng laughed, but the laughter came to an abrupt end. He saw the pleasure boat on the West Lake patroling the middle of the lake. Laughing came from the pleasure boat. His face gradually became solemn again. At this time, it was really hard to laugh. People's hearts, although it was only a lake, Mu Sheng could feel that he was thousands of miles away from the Annan people on the boat who were in the same language as him.
