Zhu Yuanzhang, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, was quite legendary in his life. Born as an authentic poor peasant, the later inscription of the "Zhu Shide Stele" has such a record: "The Zhu clan of the Benzong Sect is from the An Han of the Western Shu. Since the last life, he has served the peasants. It is clear that Zhu Yuanzhang's ancestors were also farmers and did not have any special background.
One spring, there was a serious plague and locust plague in the place where Zhu Yuanzhang lived, and in less than half a month, Zhu Yuanzhang's father, eldest brother and mother died one after another, bringing great pain and torture to Zhu Yuanzhang, and only himself and his second brother were left in the family.
Wanting to bury the deceased family members, it is ridiculous that the Zhu family has helped others plant the land for a lifetime, and they can't afford to buy a piece of land that allows Zhu Yuanzhang's dead family members to bury in peace. In the end, the neighbor Liu Jizu gave Zhu Yuanzhang a small cemetery, and he and his second brother found a few torn clothes to wrap the bodies of the family members and buried their parents on the land of the Liu family.
Due to the social unrest at that time, the oppression and dark rule of the Yuan court, the people were not happy, coupled with serious natural disasters, countless people starved to death. In order to survive, Zhu Yuanzhang became a monk. Although he was oppressed by other monks, he could at least eat.
Later, Zhu Yuanzhang watched as there was a large-scale famine in the area, and other monks gradually left the temple, feeling even more that it was not appropriate to stay here for a long time, and in order to survive, they could only beg.
Zhu Yuanzhang's begging is still a little different from that of a beggar, he does not beg for the sake of survival, he begs to survive. In the three years he was begging, he traveled to most parts of the country, saw all kinds of customs and customs, and better understood the current situation of the vast majority of ordinary people at that time.
Just when Zhu Yuanzhang was traveling in all directions, he received a letter from his childhood friend Tang He, inviting himself to join Guo Zixing's rebel army, at that time Zhu Yuanzhang did not think much, with trust in Tang He and deep hatred for the Yuan Dynasty, he defected to Guo Zixing's Red Turban Army.
Zhu Yuanzhang was quickly appreciated by Guo Zixing in the army for his hard-working, brave combat, tactfulness, rough writing, and shrewdness and ability. In this way, Zhu Yuanzhang did not give up, did not abandon, firmly believed in his faith, the flame in his heart continued to burn, step by step defeated all the enemies standing in front of him, and finally overthrew the rule of the Yuan Dynasty, so that the ruling power of the world returned to the hands of the Han people, and finally established the Ming Dynasty.
Zhu Yuanzhang was well aware of the pros and cons of power, so he soon abolished the system of prime ministers that had lasted for thousands of years and deposed Zhongshu Province. There is no doubt that the removal of Zhongshu Province is equivalent to having no right and left arm, and more things are rather done by yourself than trust others.
Zhu Yuanzhang is extremely conscientious and responsible in his work, and in our current words, he is a "workaholic", who must do everything himself, and he cannot tolerate being sloppy.
Just every day of the folding takes most of the day, not to mention other things. According to statistics, Zhu Yuanzhang only approved two hundred to three hundred per day. Sometimes there are many things during the day, and at night, you can calm down to criticize the folds, and it is a batch until most of the night.
Empress Ma, who deeply loved Zhu Yuanzhang, couldn't bear to look at Zhu Yuanzhang like this every day. In order to let Zhu Yuanzhang rest more, pay attention to his health, do not be tired because of busy official duties, and do not break his heart because of a small matter of the country, once Empress Ma made an uplink to persuade Zhu Yuanzhang: Fan depicting the black dragon calling the wind can not call the rain.
After listening to Zhu Yuanzhang, he did not put down the things in his hands, but was even busier, and happened to have a lower link: the shoe embroidery golden phoenix landed on the ground and could ascend to the sky, reproducing his desperate Sanlang spirit, simply a workaholic. Empress Ma was also quite speechless, allowing herself to persuade in every way, and Zhu Yuanzhang also took it as a sidewind, which was very helpless.
Zhu Yuanzhang did so personally, of course, for himself and the country he had established. There can be no doubt that in addition to carrying out vigorous political reforms, Zhu Yuanzhang also paid close attention to agriculture and vigorously enhanced the strength of the country. In addition, Zhu Yuanzhang also reduced heavy taxes on many occasions, organized peasants to build water conservancy projects, and vigorously advocated the planting of cash crops such as mulberry, hemp, and cotton, as well as fruit and wood crops, thus promoting agricultural production and social and economic development.
Zhu Yuanzhang, from the beginning of a peasant, a monk, a beggar, gradually became a soldier, a general, a marshal, and then to the founding emperor, with supreme power and wisdom.
