Seeing Liu Bowen's statue in the Wenzhou Museum, combined with previous understanding, further deepened the interest and understanding of him.
Liu Ji (1311-1375), also known as Liu Qingtian, was a military strategist, politician, and literary scholar in the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties, and the founding father of the Ming Dynasty. He is famous for assisting Zhu Yuanzhang in completing the imperial business, founding the Ming Dynasty, and trying his best to maintain the stability of the country, and is compared to Zhuge Liang by later generations. His baked cake song and prophecy of "when you go well, you will stop" are still memorable.
In southern Zhejiang, there is a place called Wencheng County. Zhong Lingyuxiu, a brilliant person, is known as the "sixth blessed land under the world". At the beginning of the establishment of Wencheng County, Liu Ji's nickname "Wencheng" was used as the county name, and it has been used to this day, and Wencheng is also the first county in China to use the ancient nickname as the county name. According to the interpretation of the history books, "Wencheng" means "longitude and latitude heaven and earth, and the people establish government".
"Three points of the world, Zhuge Liang, one domination of Jiangshan Liu Bowen." Wencheng is Liu Bowen's hometown and has also left many of his footprints. If Liu Ji lives in the present, he can be called a cultural celebrity who leads the coquettishness, the owner of the hidden pastoral garden, and a proud cultural tourism expert, with super cultural skills and a vast righteousness, and the top of the elite talents!
I have the opportunity to see the hometown of this great man who has made virtue, meritorious service, and "three immortals".
