Zhu Yuanzhang's popularity in history is very high, as the cloth tianzi in history, Zhu Yuanzhang was able to establish the Ming Dynasty, which was undoubtedly very difficult along the way. At the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the world was in chaos, and at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang ate the last meal without eating, at this time, Zhu Yuanzhang felt that life was not easy. At the same time, he also felt the corruption of the officials in the late Yuan Dynasty.
It is undeniable that after growing up, Zhu Yuanzhang became a monk in the Huangjue Temple, and under the recommendation of his compatriots, Zhu Yuanzhang joined Guo Zixing's camp, and from then on, Zhu Yuanzhang began to make meritorious achievements. Therefore, it also laid the foundation for the establishment of the Ming Dynasty. Here in Guo Zixing, Zhu Yuanzhang made meritorious contributions and even married Guo Zixing's righteous daughter Ma Shi.
This is the horse queen after that. Then again, after Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty, it undoubtedly represented the han people who walked out of the oppression of the Yuan Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang's great achievements are indelible, and the most important thing is to "expel Hu Yu and restore China", which is undoubtedly the greatest achievement of Zhu Yuanzhang's life. After the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was still conscientious.
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang began to implement the policy of recuperation and recuperation and quickly restored economic development, which allowed the Ming Dynasty to develop rapidly, and at this time there was a "rule of Hongwu". It is undeniable that for the people, Zhu Yuanzhang is undoubtedly a good emperor. However, for the officials of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang was very harsh.
At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang launched the four major cases of Hongwu, which made the officials of the Ming Dynasty endanger themselves. The number of people implicated in the four major Hongwu cases reached more than 100,000 people. This number is the highest in all dynasties. During Zhu Yuanzhang's reign, the system of human martyrdom was restored, which was undoubtedly very cruel, but Zhu Yuanzhang's martyrdom was even more cruel.
The earliest period of human martyrdom originated in the Shang and Zhou Dynasties, when it was still the way slave society ruled. During the reign of Emperor Wu of Han, Emperor Wu of Han considered the system of human martyrdom to be too cruel, so he abolished the system of human martyrdom. During the Ming Dynasty, the system of human martyrdom appeared again. According to the Records of the Collected Works of tongshi, "Taizu buried Xiaoling with forty-six concubines, of which only a dozen people were martyred in the palace. ”
Zhu Yuanzhang asked 46 concubines to accompany xiaoling, and such a number of funerals was very rare in all dynasties and dynasties. On the day of Zhu Yuanzhang's funeral, thirteen city gates were opened throughout Nanjing, and in addition to the funeral procession, there were also funeral personnel. According to later archaeology, zhu Yuanzhang's xiaoling tomb was buried near many women.
These women are showing the posture of their legs being "broken", why is this? In ancient times, there were many methods of human martyrdom, generally speaking, the living were given to themselves, and more were killed or buried alive, so Zhu Yuanzhang's martyrdom was different. Zhu Yuanzhang's martyrdom was to inject the living into mercury.
In order to maintain the appearance of the martyred woman, there was a way to inject mercury. By injecting mercury into the woman, the woman's appearance is kept more perfect. This method, however, needs to be carried out in the case of a living person, and it has to be said that the method is cruel. In order to reduce the pain of martyred women, methods similar to sleeping pills or similar to general anesthesia are used to make women unconscious.
Although the woman has lost her pain, the nerves have not stopped. In the case of neural conditioning or compression, various instinctive struggle reactions are made, in which case the legs are "broken". Under such circumstances, Zhu Yuanzhang was undoubtedly very cruel. After the emergence of the system of human martyrdom, it is undoubtedly a feeling of extreme fear and horror.
However, Zhu Yuanzhang continued to adopt the system of human martyrdom, which undoubtedly became a stain on Zhu Yuanzhang's life. Zhu Yuanzhang's system of human martyrdom was also inherited by Zhu Di, "The emperor (Ming Chengzu Zhu Di) collapsed, and more than thirty people were martyred in the palace. On the day of death, all are paid to the court, and they are paid, and they are led to the ascension of the church, and the cries shake the temple. A small wooden bed was placed in the hall, and a lanyard was placed on it, and the head was taken into it, and the bed was removed, and all the pheasants died of their necks. ”
In the ming dynasty, the human martyrdom system decisively abolished the human martyrdom system and completely announced the end of the human martyrdom system.
