In 1368, shortly after Zhu Yuanzhang founded the country, a celebration banquet was held in the palace, and a monk made a poem praising Zhu Yuanzhang in order to pat himself on the back, and after listening to this poem, he directly clapped his hands and applauded, laughing and blossoming. But halfway through the banquet, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly became angry and directly ordered people to pull the monk out and behead him, and everyone present was stunned by the sudden scene.
Zhu Yuanzhang can be said to be a farmer, starting a bowl, and sitting on the throne with his own efforts.
But he had been a monk before, and he was quite taboo about his disgraceful side in the past, and even formulated the earliest "word prison".
In 1368, at the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang held a celebration banquet, and a high monk named Laifu, in order to please him, wrote a poem on the spot to congratulate him.
Repeat the poem:
The golden plate and the Su are jointly awarded the special domain, and the jade bowl daigo is out of the Shangfang.
Thick stacks have repeatedly accepted heavenly offerings, and they are ashamed of their own virtues and praise Tao Tang.
This poem can be said to be a clear understanding of Zhu Yuanzhang's praises and praises, and the high monk's heart of patting the horse.
But who knows, Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy after listening to this poem, but the banquet was halfway through.
Zhu Yuanzhang changed his face and immediately ordered him to be pulled down and beheaded.
Why? Zhu Yuanzhang's reason is that there is a "special" word in the poem, and "special" is "evil Zhu" when taken apart, which is so good that he wants to assassinate me.
This also led to the Ming Dynasty, people for this use of writing, very taboo.
Therefore, the eunuchs and palace ladies who were waiting in the palace were afraid of being a little careless and annoying Zhu Yuanzhang, and their lives would be in danger.
In 1368, Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty in order to change the political shortcomings of the previous dynasty and consolidate centralized power.
Zhu Yuanzhang carried out a major political transformation and cleaned up the powerful ministers, the most widely known of which was the "Hu Weiyong case".
In the face of such a harsh king, the people around Zhu Yuanzhang were afraid, this king, he was both a Ming Jun, but also an emperor who "could not afford to provoke".
If he knew that someone's words were ironic to him, then he would surely go on a killing spree, which was also a disgraceful aspect of his imperial career.
One day Zhu Yuanzhang and Empress Ma were eating together, and suddenly Zhu Yuanzhang found a hair in his bowl while eating.
This is a very small thing in itself, but Zhu Yuanzhang is a very picky person, he thinks that this is the imperial chef is not careful enough, this time is the hair next time is poison What to do?
For the chefs around him, Zhu Yuanzhang attaches great importance to it.
A chef who has followed him for 23 years has never let him suffer a single grievance or dare to scold.
In 1378, Zhu Yuanzhang's third son, Zhu Tang, beat the imperial cook next to him, which made Zhu Yuanzhang angry and stripped him of his title at that time.
In Zhu Yuanzhang's heart, if you are a face-to-face enemy, I am not afraid at all, but for these small people around him, he does not dare to slack off at all.
He was afraid, he had offended these little people, and it was possible that he would lose his life if he had moved his hands and feet on food that day, after all, this kind of thing has been quite a lot in history.
Therefore, after Zhu Yuanzhang found the hair, he attached great importance to it.
So I found the Guanglu Temple Secretary in charge of the Imperial Dining Room, and this Guanglu Temple Secretary was also frightened and trembling, and then went to find the Imperial Chef in charge of this dish.
After the imperial kitchen went to the temple, Zhu Yuanzhang asked loudly, "What do you see here?" Do you explain what's going on? ”
The imperial chef was frightened by his voice, and he didn't know what to say, and the whole person trembled.
When Empress Ma saw the situation, she quickly opened her mouth to persuade her, afraid that this Zhu Yuanzhang would be angry and would kill people again.
Since Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, some ministers may have made mistakes, but when the empress interceded, Zhu Yuanzhang would always be punished lightly, which shows that Empress Ma's status in his heart is very high.
Seeing this, the imperial chef calmed down, and the spirit machine directly took off his hat and said to Zhu Yuanzhang, "You see this hair is not mine, I am bald." ”
Zhu Yuanzhang was also stunned when he saw it, and it was not easy to say anything, it turned out that before this imperial chef came, he shaved his hair directly in the kitchen, and he had to say that he had to use good means.
But the question is, it's not your hair, is it Zhu Yuanzhang's own, this is a big disrespect.
Who knew this imperial cook, and continued: "The emperor is yours, not someone else's." Zhu Yuanzhang's face turned black.
But at this moment, the imperial chef added a sentence: "Not hair, but dragon whiskers." This means that this is not the hair of Wei Chen, but the beard of the True Dragon Heavenly Son.
Zhu Yuanzhang brushed his beard, and sure enough, he pulled down a few of them. Then thinking of the imperial chef's words, Long Yan was suddenly overjoyed, not only did not kill this chef, but also promoted him to an official.
This imperial chef is really a bit level, simply said 6 words, and even saved his own life.

It is often said that a companion is like a companion of a tiger.
Getting along with the emperor is not an easy task, even if it is a good-natured emperor.
For example, Tang Taizong, he is a more famous king in Chinese history, but he also has a bad temper, someone once rebelled against his dragon scales, and as a result, he was demoted.
The emperor had absolute power over life and death, not to mention serving around the suspicious Zhu Yuanzhang.
None of those who were officials in the DPRK were trembling, afraid that one day they would not do as well as Zhu Yuanzhang's wishes, and what awaited them was the relocation of their heads.
Not to mention a royal chef in charge of the meals of the Guanglu Temple, to be able to achieve the imperial kitchen, not only to be highly skilled, but also to be meticulous, if it were not for the imperial chef to say "dragon whiskers" in time and also reveal his bald head, this catastrophe would not be able to hide.
What's more worth mentioning is that if there is no Horse Queen in it, this time the matter will probably not end so easily.
Therefore, at any time, speaking is an art, especially with a leader like the emperor, especially the need to pay attention to art, not too straight, or without your good fruit to eat.
