As the founding monarch of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was originally a child of an ordinary family, and when he was a teenager, his family was poor, and he even raised cattle for the local rich family to get some money from it. This year, it happened that natural disasters occurred one after another, resulting in the life of the people in his area being miserable, and it was not long before Zhu Yuanzhang's parents also passed away one after another, leaving only Zhu Yuanzhang and his brother in the family, who not only had no money to buy a coffin when they buried for their parents, but also failed to bury their parents on a piece of land. Zhu Yuanzhang's neighbor felt pity and gave Zhu Yuanzhang's brothers a piece of land, which placed their parents down. In order to survive, Zhu Yuanzhang had his own brothers and nephews forced to separate, and it was even more impossible to survive in a single life.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who had no livelihood to rely on, came to the temple to become a monk, cleaned in the temple all day, was responsible for the work of ringing bells in the temple, and was often bullied by monks who were older than him, and it did not take long for the temple to be maintained, and the abbot let the monks in the temple travel to the outer clouds by themselves, and Zhu Yuanzhang began to live a life of wandering around. It can be said that among the monarchs of these dynasties, Zhu Yuanzhang is the one with the lowest origin. Zhu Yuanzhang, who was wandering outside, also worked as a beggar, and later relied on his own ability to single-handedly conquer the country. As the Yuan Dynasty became increasingly decayed, coupled with successive years of natural disasters that made life very difficult for civilians, at this time there was a peasant uprising to resist the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, followed by a vigorous uprising throughout the country, Zhu Yuanzhang seized the opportunity of this uprising and joined the Red Turban Army.
Zhu Yuanzhang can succeed not only rely on his wisdom, naturally there are different places, do things decisively without procrastination, be able to make up his mind, means tough, these are his advantages, becoming a monarch If you are soft-hearted, this cannot be successful, he has such a high achievement is to rely on bloody battles in exchange. Zhu Yuanzhang, who had been a warrior all his life, had long been accustomed to fighting on the battlefield, and naturally would not be merciful to his enemies; when he was young, Zhu Yuanzhang had tasted a variety of life and was even more resentful of corrupt officials, and after he became a monarch, he stipulated that officials in the imperial court who accepted more than a few dozen taels of other people's property would be directly executed.
The Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan is relying on resistance to the dynasty in exchange, Zhu Yuanzhang is very worried that the people under his hands will also stand up and resist like him, after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang will follow him to the death of most of the people who follow him to resist, even if many families suffer from it, it seems that Zhu Yuanzhang is very ruthless, but there is no killer for these two types of people, and he has never been offended. Everyone may be curious, Zhu Yuanzhang will even execute those who have meritorious service to his former comrades-in-arms, who he does not dare to offend, these two types of people are cooks and shavers, not only do not sin himself but also instruct his children and grandchildren not to offend these two types of people.
After Zhu Yuanzhang divided the princes, according to the rules set by Zhu Yuanzhang, they were all going to their respective territories. One of the princes who was divided into princes committed the forbidden things that Zhu Yuanzhang ordered, and this prince dared to abuse his own cook on the way to his own territory, using a whip to beat him, and Zhu Yuanzhang, who learned of this, immediately issued an order to warn the prince, and the letter described it like this: You must not offend the cook, the cook is an important person responsible for your daily diet, if one day he has evil intentions towards you and drugged your diet, then you will regret it. There is no point in punishing this cook afterwards, and you must treat your own chef well.
This prince did not take Zhu Yuanzhang's teaching seriously, and it was not long before another prince did the same thing, and Zhu Yuanzhang was patient and gave him another admonition. From these small things, it is not difficult to find that Zhu Yuanzhang is a delicate person, who deeply understands that it is very difficult for his generals to kill themselves, but it is easy for his own cooks to poison themselves. As for the other type of shaving head, they also have knives when they shave the hair of the monarch, although they can't cut off their heads, but it is still easy to stab and kill, so Zhu Yuanzhang's gift to the shavers is also very large. Not only did he make chefs and shaving heads hold higher official positions many times, but he was also very kind to them.
Throughout Zhu Yuanzhang's life, it can not be said that it is not legendary, from a fallen beggar to the proud son of heaven, Zhu Yuanzhang laid his own jiangshan with his hands, and his growth history is a living inspirational history, and in the history of our country, there are many heroes of a generation like Zhu Yuanzhang, a "Zizhi Tongjian", take you to appreciate the wisdom of the ancients, and then feel life, will be at ease, leisurely.
