Section 68 Confusion (II)
Mu Tianbo, the Duke of Qianguo, was a loyal courtier of the Great Tomorrow, and he was willing to pay his own for the Ming Emperor, and in Deng Ming's previous life, he shed his last drop of blood to defend Yongli. If Mu Tianbo knew that the emperor claimed to the King of Burma that his murder was his own fault, he would probably only regret it and would not regret it, because defending the great tomorrow is Mu Tianbo's ambition, and it is the belief of the Mu family for hundreds of years since Zhu Yuanzhang sealed Mu Ying.
Since the reckless software, the following Royal Forest Army has been quickly ransomed and reorganized into the occupation army, and a few years later, the guard officers have gradually been asked to leave by the occupation army. At this time, Mu Tianbo was full of hope, exercised diligently every day, and looked forward to the day when he was proud to get rid of the life of a prisoner, and then led the Royal Forest Army to Ava to rescue the emperor. But this day couldn't wait, and in the end, in addition to his family, only the first assistant Ma Jixiang, Mu Tianbo and a group of eunuchs - Yang Zai and the officers of the occupation army studied and thought that Mu Tianbo was too dangerous, even if Ma Jixiang wanted to come back, he could not agree to the Burmese release of Qianguo Gong.
As long as Yang Zai can send enough compensation to Kunming and Chengdu, he will have enough say on the Burma issue, that is, when Li Dingguo asks about this matter, Bai Wenxuan and others will also help Yang Zai ease his cheeks; As for Chengdu, the academy will see how Yang Zai is pleasing to the eye, and in the past few years, he has returned to Chengdu twice, and the imperial government and the academy have warmly welcomed the emperor of northern Burma.
Last year, Yang Zai asked his father-in-law, Ma Jixiang, to leave, presumably thinking that Ma Shoufu would no longer pose any threat to his status. Yang Zai's conjecture is not wrong, the ten years of house arrest have worn out Ma Jixiang's ambitions, and the original high-spirited Ming Shoufu has now become a weakened old man. When the Burmese guards came to pick up the people with the order, Ma Shoufu simply Mu Tianbo - the last refugee friend said goodbye to him, and hurriedly followed the Burmese soldiers with his head bowed with a trace of shame on his face, as if he was a deserter who abandoned his comrades on the battlefield.
Due to the growing strength of the Ming army in the country, Mu Tianbo also admitted that Myanmar is getting better and better for the Yongli Tianzi, and now the Yongli Tianzi can also go out hunting accompanied by the Burmese soldiers as long as he wants, and if Mu Tianbo is interested, it can also be arranged; Every once in a while, Mang Bai would also pay tribute to the Son of Heaven and the East Palace of some Burmese nobles. After hearing that the pair of ministers who came to meet and greet from time to time finally left only Mu Tianbo, Emperor Yongli lost his temper again and scolded several unlucky palace people.
The king is worried about the humiliation of the ministers, and the king is humiliated and the ministers die.
Mu Tianbo has been planning to abscond, but he is always relieved that the Son of Heaven is not relieved, when he realized that it is impossible for Yang to let him go back in this traitor, Mu Tianbo entrusted his wife and children to the queen - the latter also helped Mu Tianbo persuade the Yongli Son of Heaven, making him believe that Mu Tianbo is not greedy for life and afraid of death and wants to abandon the king, but really plans to get out of trouble himself first and gather loyal people to save the emperor.
Probably because it has been too long, and the courtiers of the Ming court have basically been released, so the Burmese soldiers who monitored Mu Tianbo's family have not relaxed. Mu Tianbo's body has been well maintained in the past ten years, and after successfully getting out of trouble, he found that the Burmese soldiers along the way were even more unguarded, and after being stopped twice, when the other party realized that he seemed to be a Chinese, he immediately became very polite, and even did not want his identity documents to let him go immediately, and even sent someone to escort him out of the country, for fear that this Chinese, who seemed to have a little status, would be killed by bandits in southern Burma.
After entering the reckless rule of northern Burma, Mu Tianbo saw more Chinese, as if a large number of Han Chinese were pouring into Myanmar to do business; In addition to business, there are other jobs that require Han Chinese, such as the opening of a large number of Chinese language schools in northern Myanmar. Since five years ago, the reckless regime has made it mandatory for Burmese to take an additional test in the imperial examinations, so the Chinese language has become a must for officials. What's more, since three years ago, the most famous Chinese universities such as Chengdu and Xuzhou have issued scholarships to northern and southern Myanmar. According to the study of the scholastic committee, the war reparations that Myanmar agreed to pay in the fifteenth year of Yongli were too much, and they thought that it was very unfair to Myanmar, so they planned to take out half of the money they received from Sichuan and return it to the people of Myanmar by setting up a scholarship, which was aimed at the whole of Myanmar, and there were places in both northern and southern Myanmar.
Whether it is reckless or reckless, the best and brightest Burmese people who have been selected layer by layer are studying hard, hoping to get a full scholarship to go to school in Sichuan. It was widely argued that by the time the brightest Burmese children had received a comprehensive education in Sichuan, they would form a pro-China clique when they returned to power, thus hastening the healing of the aftermath of the 15-year war in Yongli.
Many Chinese teaching in Burma, even fugitives from Yunnan and Sichuan, came to Burma to escape Kunming's arrest, and they lived a respectable life in the northern part of Burma. In fact, Mu Tianbo, who was also a fugitive, was soon targeted by a Han intermediary company on the way to Bamo, and after he stayed in the hotel, there were Han people to set up friendships, and asked Mu Tianbo who he was and what business he was doing in Myanmar? After seeing that Mu Tianbo was hesitant and vague, the intermediary company was even more convinced that this was a dangerous Yunnan fugitive, and when he first arrived in Myanmar and had no place to live, he enthusiastically recommended Mu Tianbo to go to work and teach the Yunnan dialect at the "Reckless King International Language School", saying that it would not be a problem for him to teach and marry ten Burmese girls within a few years with his Chinese proficiency -- the intermediary company only charged half a year's salary as an introduction fee, and could accept installment payments.
After rejecting the job recommendation of this intermediary company, Mu Tianbo met another one after staying in the hotel the next day, this Chinese businessman was a lawyer, and after determining that Mu Tianbo's origin was unknown and he did not seem to have a stable income, he wanted to woo him to be a professional plaintiff - although Mu Tianbo seemed to have some money, the Chinese businessman implied that he could not sit back and eat empty, and that not exposing his wealth was the way to keep his peace - it was obvious that the lawyer was accustomed to seeing robbers who had fled abroad, and mistook Mu Tianbo for one of them.
Yesterday, Mu Tianbo of that school could at least understand what the other party wanted to do, but this Mu Tianbo was completely confused, what is a professional plaintiff?
Seeing that Mu Tianbo didn't know anything about the Burmese shape, the person who recruited him smiled slightly, and while thinking in his heart that he could lower the salary and commission for a while, he patiently explained: The Burmese government treats the Chinese and the Burmese report differently, and the Burmese lose cattle all year round, but they have never seen a few heads recovered, if they really occasionally find one of them, the owner will send a plaque to the government with tears and gongs and drums, thanking the official for making decisions for the people; However, the Chinese are different, last time a Chinese migrant worker who first arrived in Bamo lost a Buddhist bead bracelet made of peach wood, which was probably not worth a few dollars, but after reporting to the official, the whole city was under martial law, and the Yamen caught and quickly swarmed out, and finally picked up the broken beads one by one in a gutter and put them together.
This kind of litigation firm was born because of this, and now the firm that recruited Mu Tianbo has stores in major cities in the north and south of Myanmar, and advertisements are plastered all over the streets: "Chinese sue!" According to this businessman, the remuneration of Chinese in different regions is still different, the prices in Liangguang and Fujian are very low, Zhejiang and Liangjiang are slightly better, but people like Mu Tianbo, who are Yunnan people when they hear the accent, are very expensive, and the best ones are of course those who have the identity certificate of Sichuan Tongxiucai - Sichuan's Tongxiucai is from all over the world and cannot be confirmed by accent alone.
On the third day of staying in the hotel, there were no Chinese businessmen who came to harass Mu Tianbo again, but the owner of the store came in person and asked Mu Tianbo to save him no matter what.
"What's wrong?" Mu Tianbo heard a commotion outside the door, suspecting that there were bandits coming.
"It's some patriots who are making trouble, and the little old man is afraid that they will make too much trouble and cause trouble to the shop." In the past five years, as more and more Burmese people have learned about the situation in Sichuan, or have simply been to Sichuan to see the operation of the imperial government, they have become more and more hopeful that the rule of the reckless king will change. Some Burmese scholars proposed that they should not be guilty of their words like Sichuan, that they should be allowed to comment on current affairs, that they should be mentioned as criminal officials, that Burmese civilians should not be allowed to be fourth-class nationals in their own land, and that some people should even propose that the property of officials should be publicized like Sichuan; And this aroused the anger of Burmese patriots, saying that these scholars are all Sichuan slaves, and the next time the Sichuan army has a war with Burma, these people will definitely lead the way for the Ming army.
"I see." After Mu Tianbo heard it, he thought that the owner of the store wanted him to leave the store: "I understand, I will move away, and I will never implicate the boss and other customers in the store." ”
"No, no, no." The shop owner knew that Mu Tianbo had misunderstood, and he hurriedly waved his hand: "Little Lao'er just wants to ask the guest officer to stand in front of the shop, and when he sees that there are Chinese living in this shop, the government will immediately send a large number of arresters to protect the shop, and arrest those who disturb the guest officer's sleep and beat them up." ”
"And what about before the government's arrest arrives?" Mu Tianbo was still a little uneasy, just now he heard the boss say very clearly, now the group outside are all Burmese patriots, and the most hated is the Burmese traitor who led the way for the Ming army: "Should I go out with a knife in order to defend myself?" ”
"No, of course, no one cares if you hold a knife, but as long as you show this authentic Yunnan accent, it's fine." The shopkeeper said with confidence: "After hearing your Yunnan dialect, those patriots will come up to you with a smile and greet you in Chinese: Friends from Kunming, can I practice my Chinese with you?" ”
……
Now, Mu Tianbo, who had fled from Burma to China with great difficulty, was sitting in the reception room of King Pingxi, ready to explain to the other party why he had to travel from Yunnan to Guangxi.
