Chapter 94 (15) Great Escape from Burma

Li Dingguo's troops were completely defeated, and Emperor Yongli was shocked, so he hurriedly called Mu Tianbo, Duke of Qianguo, "Mu Aiqing, do you have a plan to defeat the enemy and restore the country?" Mu Tianbo smiled and said: Your Majesty Qizuo, I suggest that we set off immediately and go to Myanmar for political asylum. So Emperor Yongli set off. This exiled regime carried countless gold and silver treasures, and even more property, and set off in the middle of the night.Wherever the soldiers and horses passed by, they were lit by candles. They walked for most of the night and were about to rest in the camp. They were surprised to find that they circled around and returned to the starting point.

Scared and confused. It doesn't matter if you are confused, isn't it dawn? Everyone still knows the way, so they walked towards the Burmese border.When I got to the border, I saw many primitive people with bare feet and buns on their heads: Hey, people on the other side, you are not allowed to invade our border. Mu Tianbo hastily stepped forward: We are not aggressors, we are... a sightseeing tour group, traveling to your country. The other party didn't believe it: the tour group still brought so many weapons?We will not admit you unless you lay down your arms and enter as prisoners of war.

After some intense quarrels and negotiations, all the people on Emperor Yongli's side disarmed, and a total of more than 640 accompanying officials and soldiers entered Myanmar. When more than 600 people were walking, suddenly there was a sound of wooden drums in the woods on both sides, and the sound of killing was loudly heard: There are many slaves here, come and catch slaves... It turns out that in the small country of Myanmar, the level of productivity has just developed to the era of slavery. Of the more than 640 entourages who followed Emperor Yongli into Burma, more than a dozen were shot to death by poisoned arrows, and another 600 were captured and taken as slaves.

At this time, King Min brought more than 900 entourages into the country through another road.But this team was even worse. Almost all of the more than 900 people were captured by primitive people and sold as slaves.In those days, in the Burmese slave market, the prices of Ming officials plummeted. But Emperor Yongli finally ran to Manmo under the protection of more than 20 people. After arriving at the place, Mu Tianbo went to meet the great chief of Burma.But the chief said: If you want to see me, you must first bare your feet, comb your hair in a cone-shaped bun, change into a leaf skirt, and dance a lot of folk dances.

Mu Tianbo had no choice but to agree.After seeing the great chief, when he was dancing the folk dance, because the leaves tied around his waist were not secure, the grass leaf skirt fell off, revealing... Mu Tianbo burst into tears on the spot. After Mu Tianbo came back, he cried: Do you think I am willing to suffer this kind of humiliation?I'm not afraid that these barbarians will get angry and hurt the emperor... The accompanying official Ren Guoxi refused to understand Mu Tianbo, so he took off the leaves as paper and wrote a memorial to Emperor Yongli, demanding that Mu Tianbo be severely punished for losing his power and humiliating the country.

Go up the memorial, stay in the middle and not send it.
