Zhu Yuanzhang killed all the heroes in his later years, why did Zhu Yuanzhang doubt for many years that he could still die well?
Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding monarch of the Ming Dynasty, was a famous grassroots emperor in history. He was born poor and lowly, and with his extraordinary courage and favorable timing, he climbed to the top of the country step by step.

Later generations have mixed reviews of him.
Someone praised him
Because Ming Taizu, who has experienced the suffering of the world, is sympathetic to the people, loves the people like a son, and is a clear ruler, he is one of the best Ming emperors.
Someone insulted him
Because he was tyrannical and cruel, and his heart was too heavy, even his own founding hero did not let go.
One author once commented on the major cases of slaughtering officials, arguing:
"The bird's full bow is also a kind of protection for this group of people, as long as it is not the bird's full bow destruction, it is already very benevolent." Originally, their role was to fight the world, and the world had decided to let them hold heavy troops. Stay and beat yourself? Like a glass of wine to release the military power on the handling is very good."
to express his tangled feelings about Zhu Yuanzhang's indiscriminate killing of his subordinates.
Hu Weiyong case
In fact, although Zhu Yuanzhang killed so many heroes, there were still a small number of lucky people who escaped the disaster. The next thing we want to say is that one of the legendary figures who was heard by Zhu Yuanzhang after drinking was heard by Zhu Yuanzhang, but he was able to save himself-

Tang He is Zhu Yuanzhang's hometown. Their family is on the same street, growing up playing with mud together, and they are really small hair.
Zhu Yuanzhang when he was a child herded cattle
It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang liked to play the game of the emperor's ministers since he was a child. He tore the leaves into filaments, glued them to his mouth to make a beard, made a crown on his head with a wooden plank, and then stacked the stones into a golden temple.
Although he was three years older than Zhu Yuanzhang and taller than Zhu Yuanzhang, he was still taller
Tang He willingly led the children together to shout long live Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on a stone pile.

By the end of the Yuan Dynasty, there were frequent wars and people's livelihood. After the death of his parents, Zhu Yuanzhang left home and entered the Huangjue Temple.
At that time, Tang He, who had defected to Guo Zixing, gained a firm foothold in the army, and did not forget his small hair, and specially wrote to Zhu Yuanzhang to let him come here.
Zhu Yuanzhang defected to Tang He and embarked on this revolutionary road from then on.
Later, Zhu Yuanzhang gradually showed his sharp edge, and his position rose higher and higher, at that time, many people did not want to see him because of his humble origins, but Tang He was not jealous, always respected him, believed in him, and finally followed Zhu Yuanzhang. The History of the Ming Dynasty records that:
"Tang He is three years old, and he is very restrained and restrained, and Taizu is very pleased."
This is the wonderful origin of Tang He and Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang in the film and television drama
Tang He loved to drink, and when he was guarding Changzhou, he once asked Taizu for instructions, but he did not get a satisfactory answer. Once drunk, he complained to his subordinates:
"My town is this city, if you sit on the roof ridge, the left is left, and the right is right"
After Zhu Yuanzhang heard about it, he had a gap in his heart and held a grudge against him.
The History of the Ming Dynasty also records:
"The Pingzhongyuan Division also discussed the merits, and sent Chen Youding to the remnants of the eight counties during the conquest of Fujian, and the division returned, which was attacked by the Thieves of Xiulan Mountain, and lost the second command, so it was not allowed to be crowned a duke"
, frightened Tang and after this more cautious.
Suspicious Zhu Yuanzhang
In the later years of Ming Taizu, for the sake of his descendants, Zhu Yuanzhang launched the Hu Weiyong case and the Blue Jade case one after another. Many founding heroes died in these two sudden man-made disasters.
Tang He knew that the military power in his hands could no longer be held.

He took the lead in handing over his military power and took the initiative to request that the old man return to his hometown.
Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy to hear him say this, and immediately granted Tang He's request and paid for him to build the mansion.
After retiring, Tang He knew that Zhu Yuanzhang would definitely pay attention to his actions. So he dismissed the extra servants in the palace and lived a pastoral life of playing chess and drinking tea alone, so that the emperor could rest assured.
The idyllic life of the ancients
Later, we also knew that Tang He was dying, and after his death, Zhu Yuanzhang was also very sad and rewarded jin shuai.
He posthumously enfeoffed Tang He as the King of Dong'ou (東瓯王), with the courtesy name Xiangwu (襄武).
Ming Taizu is really like
Some say that Tang He's willingness to save himself in the end is not to get involved in too much partisanship.
But in my opinion, it is precisely because of Yuwa
My rigorous personality, my strategy of advancing and retreating in current affairs, and my understanding of Zhu Yuanzhang over the years
This is the most important reason why he, as a founding minister, holds military power but can die well.
