As the saying goes, "Sickness comes in from the mouth, and evil comes out of the mouth." This means that "when a person speaks, he should be careful, and should not be a big mouth without a cover." ”
Are there fewer people in history who have been convicted of their words? For example, the "literal prison" of successive dynasties and dynasties, the "era of cool officials" under the rule of Wu Zetian.
What was particularly cruel was the Ming Dynasty under Zhu Yuanzhang's rule, Zhu Yuanzhang had been a monk when he was young, and had been a marshal of the "Thief Kou" Red Turban Army, so after he was called emperor, the ministers could not say the words "bald, bright, light, then, thief" and other words, and if they were not careful, they would provoke the disaster of killing and exterminating the clan.
However, in the third year of Zhu Yuanzhang's reign as emperor, that is, in 1370, Xie Shi, the wife of Xu Da, the left minister, was killed because she said, "Your royal garden is really big."
Why did Zhu Yuanzhang want to kill Xie Shi?
The course of events is as follows: Xu Da, the left chancellor, was Zhu Yuanzhang's hair, and Xu Da originally deserved to die early, and Old Zhu took it upon himself to marry the daughter of his subordinate general Xie Zaixing to Xu Da.
It is worth mentioning that Xu Da and Xie Zaixing were about the same age, and when the two were married, Xie Zaixing was on the battlefield at the time and did not know about this matter, until later he learned that his daughter was married to Xu Da.
After Xie Passed the Door, he and Zhu Yuanzhang's wife Ma Dazu became good sisters without saying anything, and the two took care of each other on the battlefield and charged forward. The history books record that Xie Shi was a tough woman with the style of a father.
Xu Da's wife, Xie Shi, had excellent arm strength, often held iron and weighed 100 pounds, and accompanied the army. - "North Window Trivia"
Such women tend to have a flamboyant personality, and it is true.
Just after Lao Zhu was proclaimed emperor, Xu Da was made the Duke of Wei for his merits, and Xie shi was given the title of Lady of Yipin. The Xu family can be described as one person below, above ten thousand people, shining on the lintel.
Once, Xie Shi went to the palace to find Ma Dazu, and when she saw that the imperial garden of the palace was big enough and grand enough, she said enviously to Empress Ma: "Your royal garden is really big, when did our family have such a big garden?" ”
At that time, the speaker had no intention, but he did not prevent the partition wall from having ears, and Lao Zhu heard it. In the evening, Lao Zhu called Xu Da to the palace to drink, and then sent guards to cut Xie down.
It turned out that Xie Shi didn't talk about his brain, and Lao Zhu said that the emperor was deliberately trying to find the problems of the heroes to kill the heroes, mainly afraid that these people would rob him of the jiangshan.
Xie Shi may have sincerely lamented the "grandeur of the Royal Garden". Empress Ma did not decipher the connotation meaning, believing that Xie Shi envied herself.
However, Lao Zhu was a politician, and judging from Xie's words that she had ambitions, speculating that she would encourage Xu Da to rebel and become emperor in the future, he first killed Xie Shi.
One day, a banquet was summoned to the inner court, and Zhongshan and Yan ordered the warriors to kill Lady Xie in its first place. Taizu held the Zhongshan Saying: "Today's Qing can be spared the disaster of the Red Clan."
After killing Xie, Lao Zhu said to Xu Da, who was drinking together: "I killed your wife, you should thank me, I lifted the disaster of extinction for your family." This means that if the Xie clan encourages you to rebel in the future, then your Xu family will be implicated and exterminated.
Come on! Lao Zhu's bastard logic can also be spoken, what is the difference between this and the crime of "belly slander"?
What is the cause of sin? At the beginning, "the hero of the Rebellion of the Seven Kingdoms", the great general of the Han Dynasty, the right minister Zhou Yafu, in his old age, his son prepared some paper paste for him to be buried, and the Punishment Department dealt with Zhou Yafu for treason.
Zhou was very angry and asked: This is just a funeral product, and I don't know if my son prepared these things for me. The official of the Ministry of Punishment said, "Although you are alive and do not rebel, maybe you will go to Hades to put on these armors to rebel!" ”
In the end, Zhou Yafu went on a hunger strike in anger and died. Old Zhu's killing of Xie Shi also exaggerated the consequences in advance, which is a guilty inference.
In fact, the above are all legends, Xie And Empress Ma are good sisters, Empress Ma has been kind all her life, how can she watch her good sisters being killed?
When Old Zhu was jealous of Shen Wansan for rewarding the Three Armies and was ready to kill Shen Wansan, Empress Ma said directly: "Killing people who have helped us will be blamed, Shen Wansan is rich and powerful, and sooner or later heaven will punish him, so it is better to send him to the matter." ”
In the end, Lao Zhu sent Shen Wansan to Yunnan.
