One morning in 1368, Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately hid the bite-bitten burnt cake in the bowl, and then pointed to the bowl in front of him and asked Liu Bowen: "It is said that Mr. Shen is clever and calculating, then you know what is in this bowl."

One morning in 1368, Zhu Yuanzhang deliberately hid the bite of the burnt cake in the bowl, and then pointed to the bowl in front of him and asked Liu Bowen: "It is said that Mr. Shen is clever and calculating, so do you know what is in this bowl?" ”

Liu Bowen pinched his fingers and counted, and then said 14 words: "Half like the sun and half like the moon, once bitten by a golden dragon." ”

This means that this thing is a bit like the moon and a bit like the sun, and it has also been bitten by a dragon, and the "dragon" here refers to the Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang.

Liu Bowen then added: "According to what Chen saw, the bowl contained a piece of burnt bread. ”

Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised when he heard it, and directly gave Liu Bowen a thumbs up.

He felt that since Liu Bowen could really understand heavenly reason, why not let him calculate the future national fortunes of the Ming Dynasty?

When Liu Bowen heard this, he quickly shook his head and said, "The heavenly opportunity must not be leaked." ”

But Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Sir, no matter what you say, you will be forgiven for your innocence." ”

Liu Bowen still did not dare to open his mouth, and in desperation, Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a "gold medal for avoiding death". Liu Bowen couldn't resist when he saw it, so he said:

"The north and south of our Ming Dynasty have been pacified, and state affairs have gradually stabilized, but the emperor should be cautious of future generations of cannibalism." The power of the north will gradually become stronger, and the royal family in the south will be destroyed by the royal family in the north. “

Zhu Yuanzhang expressed puzzlement: The capital of Yuan's capital is strongly defended, so why should it be defended?

After Liu Bowen asked Zhu Yuanzhang for pen and ink, he wrote down a proclamation of the world, "Burning Cake Song Icon":

"The swallows will soon fly into Beijing, and they will enjoy the peace of the mountains and rivers forever."

What is said here is that Yanzi is the King of Yan, which means that he wants to usurp the throne and establish the Yongle Dynasty.

"The northern Hu yu harm the people, and the royal driver personally conquers taiping."

Liu Bowen not only anticipated Ming Yingzong's expulsion of the Tartars, but also the Imperial Conquest. Even the emperor was captured, and the Ming Dynasty almost finished playing, and it was written in this "Song of Burning Cakes".

The full text of this "Song of Burning Bread" totals 1912 words, and it was predicted until the overthrow of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and even the details of Cixi's control of the Guangxu Emperor were predicted one by one.

Even more eloquently, many of the prophecies in them even contain some fortunes about the modern era.

Some scholars say that his prophecy has been fulfilled.

In the folk, there is such a proverb: "Zhuge Liang in three parts of the world, one to unify the country and mountains Liu Bowen; the military Zhuge Liang in the past life, the military Liu Bowen in the later life." ”

There are wild history records that Liu Bowen once tried to prove that he was better than Zhuge Liang, and he almost personally dug Zhuge Liang's grave. However, when he saw the five words on the tombstone, he was instantly convinced.

After cleaning the stone tomb and preparing to start, he saw a small line on the stone tablet: Only Berwyn arrived.

Liu Bowen immediately confronted Zhuge Liang's grave, slammed his head several times, and apologized busily: "In front of your old man, I am a student who does not know the height of the sky. I almost dug your grave, damn it. "

Therefore, in the piece of divine calculation, Zhuge Liang is obviously better.
