Zhu Ming changed the topic: "If there are still people with lofty ideals in Dali, they should support the heavenly soldiers and help Wang Shi relieve the people."

Dong Mingshou quickly expressed his position: "Dong does not dare to call himself a benevolent person, but he also knows the righteousness of Confucianism, and he should raise his family to welcome Master Wang to regain his homeland!"

Gao Chengzong also said: "My father will also welcome Master Wang and present Shanchan (Kunming) and Weichu (Chuxiong) to Master Wang."

Zhu Ming nodded in approval: "Very good. I will not hesitate to praise such people with lofty ideals. I heard that the Dong family has been Dali's Imperial Preceptor for generations, but now they no longer have the title of Imperial Preceptor, so I immediately asked the cabinet to recruit for canonization."

Dong Mingshou felt worried and happy at the same time.

Naturally, he was happy to get back the title of Imperial Master, and the Dong family's future wealth would be preserved.

The worry is that Emperor Zhu conferred the title too early. It is possible that the Dong family will become the target of public criticism before the soldiers come to kill him. Moreover, the person who was conferred is the Dali Imperial Preceptor. What should we do if the Dali Kingdom is destroyed?

Zhu Ming then said to Gao Chengzong: "Your father's title of 'Chinese Duke' is really too presumptuous. Go back and tell him this, and he will naturally know what to do."

Accepting these two dogs would have both advantages and disadvantages for Ming Dynasty.

The advantage is that places like Kunming and Chuxiong can be captured without any bloodshed.

The disadvantage is that it will force highly qualified political opponents to band together, prefer death to surrender, and stubbornly fight the Ming army to the end.
