First Minister of Ming Dynasty

At the end of Yuan Dynasty, outside the city of Haozhou, Zhu Yuanzhang picked up a young man, and the Hongwu Emperor has since gained an extra arm. Fight against Yuan soldiers, cross the Yangtze River, destroy Chen Youliang, and defeat Zhang Shicheng. Create Ming and recover Yanyun.

I am everywhere.

Since then, Hongwu has established the country, and there is no regret. Daming’s foundation is solid.

Regarding King Xiao Ming, we need to adopt a four-stage tactic.

First of all, we declare nothing.

Secondly, we say something may have happened, but we don’t have to do anything.

Again, we said that maybe we should do something, but unfortunately we can’t do anything.

In the end, we regret that King Xiao Ming died as a martyr for the country. It would be nice if we did something in the first place.
