In history, there has always been such a sentence: "Zhuge Liang in three parts of the world, liu bowen in the country and mountains." This sentence actually explains Liu Bowen's position in history. We all know that in history Zhuge Liang's ingenuity has conquered many people. In this sentence, liu bowen and Zhuge Liang are compared, and it can be seen that Liu Bowen is also a very talented person.
And Liu Bowen is indeed a rare talent. He is full of talent, knowledgeable of the past, and like a god. Before he died, he once told his son: "The Liu family will produce a wizard after 9 generations." But who knows, what was thought to be a sentence that Liu Bowen said casually before his death turned out to be fulfilled a hundred years later.
So what kind of person is Liu Bowen? Why is it possible to accurately predict what will happen hundreds of years from now? What kind of geniuses appeared after the ninth generation of the Liu family were "sacred"? As the saying goes: if you want to know the context of this, you still have to start from the historical background at that time.
Gifted but not born at the right time
If you want to know Liu Bowen's prophecy, in fact, you still have to start from liu Bowen's life and background. Liu Bowen was born into an ordinary family in Zhejiang. Although he has been very smart since he was a child, he is not proud, but he is very down-to-earth and hardworking, and he loves to learn.
Moreover, Liu Bowen is also very ambitious in his heart, wanting to become an official in politics, do practical things for the poor people, and improve people's lives. However, because Liu Bowen's family background is not strong, at the beginning, Liu Bowen only started from a small county official. But Liu Bowen did not complain, still very clean, and dedicated to the well-being of his people.
Unfortunately, the officialdom at that time was too corrupt, and the honest and strict Liu Bowen did not have a backstage and background, so he was very out of place, and was ostracized by many people, and it was difficult to be alone. Liu Bowen, who was not ambitious in the official field, was completely disappointed, so he chose to resign his official post and return to his hometown and return to his pastoral life.
But gold will eventually shine. Although Liu Bowen returned to the countryside, he also ushered in his own era later.
Wholeheartedly assist Zhu Yuanzhang
Although Liu Bowen returned to seclusion, his fame was already outside. Later, after Zhu Yuanzhang began to open up the country, Liu Bowen chose to assist him.
In this way, Liu Bowen lived up to the expectations of the people, followed Zhu Yuanzhang around, gave him advice, and made a lot of contributions. After Zhu Yuanzhang established the Yuan Dynasty, he did not forget the merits made by Liu Bowen, so he gave him the official position of Yushi Zhongzhong and Taishi Ling. It can be said that at this time, Liu Bowen can finally exert his ambitions and realize his ideals.
But things in the official arena have never been so simple. At this time, Liu Bowen was forced into a lot of power disputes. And was framed by his opponent Hu Weiyong.
At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang is also sensitive and suspicious, always holding a suspicious heart for the people around him. Without full trust in Liu Bowen, there is still a certain degree of prevention against Liu Bowen. This inevitably leads to misunderstandings and contradictions between monarchs and courtiers.
At this time, Liu Bowen, who has always disliked complexity and intrigue, felt that this was not the life he wanted. At this time, Liu Bowen also began to reflect on his own experience, and he felt that he had actually done his best for Zhu Yuanzhang and paid a lot. Therefore, at this time, after seeing the situation clearly, Liu Bowen thought that since he was not ashamed, it was better to quit this dispute.
Therefore, Liu Bowen finally decided to resign from his official position and return to his hometown.
Prophecies before death
In this way, Liu Bowen chose to quit the official field and decided to go home to spend his old age. However, involuntarily, he still could not live a peaceful life. Although Liu Bowen resigned and returned to his hometown, Hu Weiyong still regarded Liu Bowen as a thorn in his eye. Because Hu Weiyong was afraid that what he had done before would be reported by Liu Bowen to Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang, thus threatening his position, so he still held a grudge against Liu Bowen, so he had been looking for opportunities to cut liu Bowen to the roots and never have any trouble.
Later, Hu Weiyong's opportunity came. Liu Bowen unfortunately fell ill after returning home. So Zhu Yuanzhang sent a doctor to treat him. But the strange thing is that Liu Bowen's condition has not improved in the slightest after taking the drug, but has been aggravating, and even other symptoms have appeared.
It turned out that at this time, Hu Weiyong had colluded with the Tai Doctor and poisoned Liu Bowen's medicine in an attempt to kill Liu Bowen, so Liu Bowen had been taking poison.
At this time, Liu Bowen also guessed that this may be Hu Weiyong plotting to kill himself. I anticipated that I would die, and the limit was approaching. Therefore, before his death, he called his son to the bed and said his last famous prophecy: "After 9 generations of the Liu family, there will be a miracle." But at the time, everyone didn't quite believe it.
Later, Liu Bowen died, the tree fell and scattered, and the Liu family also lost a lot of power. It began to be unappreciated and reused by the imperial court.
With the passage of time, Liu Bowen's prophecy before his death began to be forgotten. Hundreds of years later, during the Jiajing period, the emperor at this time saw Liu Bowen's incident when he was reading the historical materials, and believed that a generation of loyal subjects should not end up like this, so he decided to re-wash away Liu Bowen's grievances and return his innocence. At the same time, in order to commemorate this founding hero, it was decided that the ninth generation descendant of Liu Bowen would be knighted and serve as the commander of Chuzhou.
And this move is to verify Liu Bowen's prediction, the ninth generation of their Liu family descendants, indeed became talents, held important positions. We don't know why Liu Bowen was able to predict accurately. But I think it may be because he believes that one day, the court will return his innocence.
epilogue
The ancients have always pursued a good beginning and a good end. Liu Bowen worked hard all his life, but then he failed to die well. He was also framed and killed by villains. But it is gratifying that justice has finally arrived, and the ninth generation of Liu Bowen has successfully been awarded the honor that should belong to him, which can also be regarded as a clean ending for Liu Bowen.
So we have to believe that even if you are encountering unfair treatment at the moment, but evil will never defeat justice, justice will be late, but it is impossible to be absent, as long as you try to stick to your original intention, one day there will be rain and sunshine, and the truth will come out. Liu Bowen's example is actually the best proof.
