In ancient society, there are often some illogical phenomena, which appear not only because of the different ways of thinking of ancient people and modern people, but also because ancient people pay more attention to some illusory things.
For example, in the history of the wilderness, Zhu Yuanzhang did such a thing, and after he calmed down the world, he was ready to build a mausoleum for himself. But the royal mausoleums needed not only engineers, but also a unit to raise horses and guard them.
At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang had already arranged a lot of official positions, but there was still a lack of a chief, and it just happened to be raining again, so Zhu Yuanzhang came to the farmer's home to avoid the rain. Wan Wan did not expect that Zhu Yuanzhang asked for this person's name, turned his head and named him an official for generations. So the question is, what's going on here?
In modern society, no matter what is the rules and logic, for example, if a person wants to be promoted, either he must be capable, or he must have experience and testing, or he is directly related. Generally speaking, in modern society, no one has ever appointed him as a high-ranking official because of his name, or because a leader pinches his finger.
However, things that are not logical at all in modern society often appear in ancient society, and even Zhu Yuanzhang, who is meticulous in his work, likes to engage in this set.
It is said that after Zhu Yuanzhang laid the foundation of the world, the first thing that should have been done was to plan to build his own mausoleum. However, Zhu Yuanzhang was a good emperor, so he first spent his main energy on arranging for the people to live and work in peace and contentment and planning the territorial integrity of the country. Finally, after the world was basically settled, Zhu Yuanzhang officially remembered to build a mausoleum.
However, because Zhu Yuanzhang prepared relatively late, there were many problems when building the mausoleum, which bothered Zhu Yuanzhang for a long time. Regarding the project, because Zhu Yuanzhang implemented the real-name system in that year, no engineer wanted to delay the construction period, and everyone worked very hard. However, we all know that royal tombs require not only the people who built the mausoleum, but also the tomb keepers.
These tomb keepers are a special force that not only needs to have a force value, but also needs to take care of the area at all times, including but not limited to tending to weeds, preventing ordinary people from staying nearby, and even being responsible for raising horses.
At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was very concerned about this matter, and some officials responsible for management and supervision had been found by him, and these people were doing very well and should be able to do their jobs.
However, according to historical records, at that time, the Hongwu Emperor was perennially at war with foreign countries, so the number of horses was drastically reduced. In order to ensure that the country's strategic materials can maintain a stable supply, Zhu Yuanzhang also decided to organize a special team near his mausoleum to let them raise horses. This force is called, Wrangler Thousand Households.
However, at that time, Zhu Yuanzhang made difficulties in selecting the chief, and it turned out that the leader of this squad was not an ordinary person, because this person not only needed to have the belief of loyalty to the emperor, but also had to have an amazing will, and even be able to raise horses. All in all, the level of people who were willing to do this work at that time was not high, and the people with high level were obviously unwilling, so they wasted their lives, and Zhu Yuanzhang could not find the right person to pick and choose.
Just when he was distressed, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to make a private visit and personally went to the neighborhood to have a look. Looking at this beautiful environment, Zhu Yuanzhang's troubled heart gradually relaxed, but then suddenly the sky began to rain heavily, and Zhu Yuanzhang did not bring an umbrella, so he could only hurriedly find the people to avoid the rain.
Fortunately, there happened to be a family nearby at that time, and the people of this family saw that Zhu Yuanzhang's dress was unusual, so they quickly welcomed him in.
This farmer's attitude was very enthusiastic, not only let Zhu Yuanzhang come in to avoid the rain, but also took the initiative to provide him with delicious food from home. In the face of the honest peasants, Zhu Yuanzhang also asked a few more questions, such as discussing how the people lived under the emperor's rule, and what about the harvest in the farmland.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very satisfied with this person's answer, and this person constantly praised the emperor, saying that under the leadership of the emperor, the life of the common people was getting better and better, the harvest in the fields was getting better, and even the phenomenon of corrupt officials was less.
Between such a question and an answer, Zhu Yuanzhang felt more and more that this person was very good, and under careful scrutiny, this person seemed to be physically strong and his face was unusual. Even, when discussing horse breeding, this person seems to have a lot of experience, and it can be seen that he is a very good horse keeper.
Perhaps a thought suddenly flashed in his mind, and Zhu Yuanzhang casually asked, what is your name? The man immediately replied that the villain's name was Dong Mao.
Hearing this name, Zhu Yuanzhang carefully pondered for a while, suddenly slapped the table and laughed, and then turned his head and said to this farmer, you, don't be a farmer here, I will introduce you to a good errand.
Then Zhu Yuanzhang revealed his identity, saying that he had sent the chief of a thousand households to raise horses near his mausoleum. The peasant almost fainted when he heard this, and he did not think that he would casually invite a person to shelter from the rain, and ushered in an official position that could be hereditary. There was no other superfluous consideration, this person only knew to blindly kowtow and call out to long live the Lord Long.
Seeing that many modern people here may be full of question marks, how can Zhu Yuanzhang pick people so casually, it can really be said that it is the same as tossing coins to choose people, is it true that Zhu Yuanzhang fainted in his later years?
In fact, Zhu Yuanzhang is not an ordinary person, he has been with Liu Bowen for many years, and he has long been good at the study of feng shui and word breaking. Therefore, when he learned this person's name, he casually thought about it, and took apart the person's name, and the result came up with three words, namely, thousand, mile, and grass.
Obviously, to raise horses is to raise thousands of horses, and the key to raising horses is that the grass and trees are fertile, and the name of this person is all about the meaning of raising horses. At that time, the ancients also paid attention to a good omen, and this person's name simply did not conform to Zhu Yuanzhang's wishes.
In addition, at that time, Zhu Yuanzhang had already begun to believe in feng shui and Providence, and when he couldn't find anyone, a rainy day let him find this person, and this person was honest and good at raising horses.
Therefore, the difference between ancient and modern is still quite large, modern people pay attention to logic and science, and ancient people pay attention to superstition and feng shui. And we don't think Zhu Yuanzhang is so strange, in history, Emperor Wen of Han did more strange than him, he dreamed of a person pushing him to heaven, and as a result, he woke up on the 2nd day to find that a person named Deng Tong looked very much like the person in the dream, so he developed a deformed relationship with him, and even willing to suffer and starve himself, but also to make this person rich and noble. This is the strange logic of the ancients at that time, which can make a person soar in an instant, which really makes modern people unbelievable.
