The Ming Dynasty: The most ruthless imperial grandson, Old Zhu begged me not to kill him.

Chapter 322 Zhu Xiong Ying Wants to Go Southwest
If that's the case, then I'd be letting them down if I couldn't deal with the chieftains in the southwest. Thinking of this, Zhu Xiong Ying clasped his fists and said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will definitely be able to manage the southwest region well."

Hearing this, Zhu Xuming nodded in satisfaction, and then looked at Marquis Mu Ying of Xiping in front of him and said with a smile.

After Xishan, my grandfather's idea was to bestow upon you a royal title and then have your family truly guard Yunnan.

I immediately rejected that idea.

I think it's a waste of your talent to only be stationed in the southwest region.

Conversely, there are still many countries in the south that are still uncivilized. I intend to incorporate the entire Yunnan region into the interior and then have the imperial court govern it uniformly in the southwest.

Apart from some necessary measures, I will give you all the autonomy, and you can even grant us land and titles of kings.

Upon hearing this, Marquis Mu Ying of Xiping felt a little breathless. If he could really be made a king, then his future prospects would be limitless.

Upon thinking of this place, Marquis Mu Ying of Xiping clasped his hands in a fist salute and said.

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, this humble general will certainly manage the Southwest region well!"

Zhu Xiong Ying was extremely satisfied with this, and waited...

After Marquis Mu Ying of Xiping left, he also returned to his own residence, which had been built for him in advance. Unfortunately, he had been living in the Qin Zheng Hall and had hardly ever returned to his own residence.

At this moment, he returned to his residence and saw a woman who hated him with a vengeance; this was Boyarnhaibie.

After meeting Kökö Temür.

Bo Yalunhai was extremely dissatisfied with him and always wanted to contact the outside world, but unfortunately, the entire Yingtian Prefecture was basically managed by Zhu Xiong Ying as if it were an iron barrel.

Not to mention contacting the outside world, Zhu Xiong Ying could get news of even the slightest movement.

At this moment, Zhu Xiong Ying smiled as he looked at Bo Ya Lun Hai Bie in front of him.

"I heard you're still thinking about making contact with outsiders. Do you even want to rebuild your Great Yuan Dynasty, or maybe you'll kill me?"

Upon hearing this, Boyalunhai snorted coldly, lowered his head, and remained silent. In the past, he would have definitely confronted him directly.

However, the Ming Dynasty is now too powerful, especially Kökö Temür, who told him not to fight against the Ming Dynasty to avoid unnecessary sacrifices. Although he did not understand why his father had become so cowardly, he did as his father instructed.

Zhu Xiong Ying looked at Boyalun Haibie and said with a smile.

"I heard that you fled to the southwest region before and even met the King of Liang in the southwest. What do you think of the King of Liang's strength?"

Bo Yalunhai snorted coldly.

"The Liang King commands elite troops, no less powerful than my father's. It's a pity that this generation's Liang King is no hero at all. Although he has so many troops, he's cowardly. If he had listened to my advice and joined forces with the court on the northern grasslands to attack from both sides, he might have already taken over your Ming Dynasty, and things wouldn't have come to this!"

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled and looked at Bo Ya Lun Hai Bie in front of him.

"If you want to kill me, then I'll give you a chance: you can go and cooperate with the King of Liang!"

"It won't be long before I personally travel to the southwest. At that time, I can allow you to cooperate with the King of Liang. If you have the ability, you can kill me. What do you say?"

Upon hearing this, Boyalun Haibie was extremely surprised and looked at Zhu Xiong Ying with disbelief. What was Zhu Xiong Ying thinking, going to the southwest region? Although the southwest region was now under the jurisdiction of the Ming Dynasty, it was much more chaotic than the Ming interior.

Besides the King of Liang, there were various local chieftains, and not all of them obeyed the court's orders. What was Zhu Xiong Ying thinking? However, he hesitated. Could this be a conspiracy? Seeing Bo Ya Lun Hai's suspicious look, Zhu Xiong Ying's eyes were full of mockery.

"How can you not even do something this simple?"

"Since that's the case, then I'll tell you the truth. My purpose in going to the southwest this time is to eliminate the King of Liang, as well as those chieftains in the southwest!"

"Of course, if the opportunity arises, we can also wipe out those southern countries!"

Upon hearing this, Boyalunhai was extremely shocked, but his first thought was that it was simply impossible to do that. There were many places like that, and even their Great Yuan had not attacked them.

They also considered continuing their campaign south, but the weather there was scorching hot, a climate they had never experienced in the north. Add to that the various snakes, insects, and rodents, and the presence of many wild animals in the mountains, and it was simply impossible for them to survive there.

Later, the southern countries also expressed their willingness to submit, so they agreed directly, and the war did not continue southward.

"That's wishful thinking! Do you know how difficult those places are to fight, especially the terrible weather? It's something no ordinary person could endure!"

"Moreover, those chieftains are also very powerful. Although the Ming army is strong, it may not be able to gain an advantage against those tribes hidden deep in the mountains and forests!"

She initially chose the southwestern region because of its complex terrain and the intertwined and interlocking forces.

That's why I thought of going to the southwest region to build up my own power and even gain the support of the King of Liang.

He just didn't expect the court on the northern grasslands to be defeated so quickly, and even his own father became a prisoner.

Left with no other choice, he had to temporarily abandon the places he had been running and return to Yingtian Prefecture.

Zhu Xiong Ying stretched lazily, seemingly not taking Bo Ya Lun Hai Bie's words to heart.

"I'm just informing you about this. I'll be taking you with me. Whether or not you take any action is up to you, but I hope you'll think it through!"

"You only have this one chance. If you miss it, you will never have another chance like this. Then you will just be a maid in my Crown Prince's mansion!"

"There will absolutely be no more Princess Fuli in this world, nor will there ever be another Boyalunhaibie. Do you understand?"

Bo Yalunhai snorted coldly upon hearing this, but kept his head down and didn't say a word.

It seems they've tacitly agreed to this.

Zhu Xiong Ying smiled, turned around and left the place. Indeed, compared to this place, the Qin Zheng Hall was much more comfortable.

Since the establishment of this Crown Prince's residence, I have never lived in this place, and I have never seen anyone who lives there.

There might be spies planted here, so it's best to be careful.

In comparison, the heavily guarded Qin Zheng Hall is the safest place.
