Compared with the Qin Dynasty and the Sui Dynasty, the fate of the Yuan Shun Emperor was good, although he lost the capital city one after another, but his life was still there, and he could be honored by Ming Taizu after his death, which was also lucky. And the luck here is: because he is not a Central Plains, but a Mongol, perhaps afraid of the power of the Mongols, perhaps for other reasons, in short, in the end, Zhu Yuanzhang gave up the crusade against Emperor Yuanshun and let the others return to Mongolia to enjoy their old age!
For the sons and babies of the Qin Dynasty and Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, they were killed, not only were they captured the city, their lives were lost, and after their deaths, there was still no honorific title given by the new emperor, so relatively speaking, the Yuan Shun Emperor was lucky. However, Liu Bowen had already prophesied that most of the Yuan Dynasty had been captured and that Emperor Yuanshun had fled to Mongolia, and his predictions had become true. And the origin of the prophecy is a red mist. Zhu Yuanzhang prepared to attack the capital of the Yuan Dynasty, who knew that there was a red mist here, and Liu Bowen predicted that the 7 characters would come true.
When Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor in Nanjing, the power of the Yuan Dynasty was not completely weakened, and the Yuan Dynasty did not withdraw from the Central Plains, so Zhu Yuanzhang's goal was to take Shandong and Henan under the Mongol occupation, and then directly attack the capital of the Yuan Dynasty (present-day Beijing). It has to be said that Xu Da was indeed brave in battle, and it did not take long for most of Shandong and Henan to be taken, which also cleared the way for the attack.
Then Zhu Yuanzhang once again ordered Xu Da and others to directly attack the Capital of the Yuan Dynasty, who knows, before he got up, a red mist appeared on the capital, accompanied by a cloud of black wind intrusion, so Liu Bowen predicted 7 words to come true: Show the death of the Yuan, and its master is gone! This means that this red mist represents the imminent demise of the Yuan Dynasty, and the master of the Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Yuanshun, is about to abscond. This is a rumor, but it is extremely meaningful.
It is also recorded in the "Ming Chronicle at the end of the Chronicle": In July of the first year of Hongwu's reign, Taizu drove to Send Liang, returned to the Capital Division, stayed behind with the deputy general Feng Zongyi, And Xu Da sui was in Dongchang, when the red fog and black wind of the Yuan Capital were heard. Liu Jiyue: Shi Yuan's death, its master is gone! Later, Liu Bowen's prophecy really came true, and The Yuan Dynasty was successfully attacked, causing Xu Da and others to occupy it, while the Yuan Shun Emperor fled and absconded to Mongolia to settle down.
Subsequently, the Ming Dynasty did not invade the Mongols again, and the Mongols did not resist Zhu Yuanzhang, and they all kept to themselves and did not interfere with each other until Emperor Yuan Shun died of illness in Yingchang, and the dispute between the Ming Dynasty and the Yuan Dynasty came to an end. The reason why Emperor Yuanshun was not hunted down and killed by Zhu Yuanzhang, some people in the academic circles believe that he did not want to be accused of killing the lord, after all, Zhu Yuanzhang was once one of the people of the Yuan Dynasty, and Emperor Yuanshun was also supported, rather than killing the king, it is better to release and not interfere with each other.
If according to this statement, the absconding of the Yuan Shun Emperor to Mongolia was zhu Yuanzhang's meaning, then did Liu Bowen still use prophecy? Everything is in Zhu Yuanzhang's prediction!
