In the last years of the Yuan Dynasty, peasant uprisings broke out everywhere, and Zhu Yuanzhang even opened up the Ming Dynasty, and in the turbulent years, Xiangshi became the most popular occupation in the chaotic world. Zhu Yuanzhang, as a soldier who led the soldiers to fight, did not believe in the words of xiangshi so much.
In 1353, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to lead an army to attack Chuzhou, hoping to capture the world by going here more. However, since it was a crucial battle, it was impossible to win this battle so easily, and the city of Chuzhou was full of grain and grass, easy to defend and difficult to attack. Zhu Yuanzhang spent several months here, and even if he continued to spend it like this, his army would suffer heavy losses because of this battle, with the world in front and the soldiers in the back, and everyone was also sad.
At this time, there was a fortune teller in the army, everyone could not think of a way to break the city, they wanted the fortune teller to calculate a trick, to see if it could capture the city, Zhu Yuanzhang was born in the grass, what fortune teller he did not believe at all, but at this time his soldiers could not think of a way, he decided to try the skills of this fortune teller.
So he asked the fortune teller, "Sir, since you know astronomy and geography, then you will calculate my life expectancy for me and see how long I can live?" This fortune teller actually didn't have much ability, but he was afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would kill him, so he thought to himself that I could live one more day longer than me, so he probably didn't dare to kill me, so he answered Zhu Yuanzhang with what he wanted. Zhu Yuanzhang knew one day that this fortune teller was fooling himself and had no real ability, so he immediately asked people to pull him out and cut him.
Unexpectedly, this incident also unexpectedly allowed Zhu Yuanzhang to stabilize the hearts of the army, it turned out that Zhu Yuanzhang's generals were very afraid that this fortune teller was true, and as a result, two days later, it was found that Zhu Yuanzhang was actually fine, everyone said that Zhu Yuanzhang was the true son of heaven, and the generals received a high morale boost and successfully took Chuzhou.
Zhu Yuanzhang, as a peasant who turned himself into an emperor, he has been in the countryside since he was a child, and he knows very well that many of the words spoken by these warlock fortune tellers are false, but he still believes in the words of two xiangshi, one is Liu Bowen, and the other is said to be able to surpass Liu Bowen.
After Xiang Shi came, he calculated one by one for Zhu Yuanzhang's men, one by one, said that this one next to Zhu Yuanzhang could be a general, and then said that the other one could be a minister, and then said that the other one could be crowned marquis, and said that several people did not say what would happen to Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Yuanzhang thought, Hey, Lao Tzu invited you to come, and as a result, you did not tell Lao Zi's fortune, but instead gave me these guys around me to tell fortunes, and treated Lao Zi as something.
So Zhu Yuanzhang was particularly angry, and even felt that this Xiangshi was not as rumored before, it was estimated that he was also a liar, and then he had the intention of killing, at this time Xiangshi said to Zhu Yuanzhang, "You want to know your fate, then you have to let everyone in this room go out, I can only say to you alone" The other people in the room looked at each other and went out.
At this time, Xiangshi said fourteen words "The rich are rich in the four seas, and the most noble are the son of heaven" Zhu Yuanzhang listened to this, and knew that he was the son of heaven, so Zhu Yuanzhang was greatly happy, swept away the anger before, and later Xiangshi's words were also confirmed, Zhu Yuanzhang did ascend to the throne, became the son of heaven, fortune telling is a means for people to predict the future direction and goal, but always can not be too indulgent, accumulating strength is the most important way to make themselves successful.
