Beggars are born, but Zhu Yuanzhang doesn't touch heroes. Later generations helped the Ming Dynasty defend Yunnan for 260 years! Who is this man?

Since ancient times, ancient emperors have skillfully used imperial books. Many emperors will choose to kill some founding heroes after they ascended the throne, not because they are cruel, but because of the inevitability of historical development, because these heroes have no reward, and for the stability of the country, if they rebel, of course they will choose to kill them.

After Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, countless heroes were killed, and only four founding ministers saved their lives. They are Mu Ying, Tang He, Guo Ying and Geng Bingwen. These four have their own characteristics, and they are all capable generals of Zhu Yuanzhang, but one of them helped Zhu Yuanzhang protect Yunnan for more than 200 years. Who is he? He is Zhu Yuanzhang's adopted son Mu Ying.

Mu Ying was adopted by Zhu Yuanzhang as a child and worked as a beggar with Zhu Yuanzhang when he was a citizen. He leads a very hard life. Later, with Zhu Yuanzhang's constant campaign in various places, he made great achievements. He was also a younger one, not because he was Zhu Yuanzhang's adopted son, but because Yunnan was in a rebellious situation after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, so he needed an effective general to deal with it.

So Mu Ying went to Yunnan to guard and has been stationed in Yunnan since the war was settled. I have to say that Mu Ying is very clever, because even if the situation of going back to the imperial court changes rapidly, going back is also scary. Being stationed in Yunnan can not only help pacify the war, but also guard the border and reassure Zhu Yuanzhang, who naturally knows his intention.

Therefore, Mu Ying's descendants have since guarded Yunnan, helped spread the culture of the Central Plains and popularized planting techniques. It can be said that the contribution to the Ming Dynasty is very great. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang made it Zhen Gong, and now there is a Mu Palace in Yunnan.
