The Burmese King handed the Emperor Yongli to Qing general Wu Sangui,Wu govered Yunnan that time,and he led his army into the Burmese capital Ava.Wu Sangui was a Han Chinese from Liaoning,who was the general of Shanhai pass before the Manchu conquest.Later Wu opened the gate to Manchus and became a Qing general,the Qing court gave him the title "prince of Pingxi",let him rule Yunnan.But in early Kangxi era,Wu betrayed the Qing,led a rebellion.The story of the last Ming emperor is interesting. He sought refuge at the court of Taungoo but the Manchus came after him. His retinue settled in what is no Kokant territory.
Yunnan always had close relation with Burma,the Kingdom of Nanchao destroyed the Pyu kingdom,and the Bamars came from Yunnan as well
