Zhu Yuanzhang's story
Zhu Yuanzhang was a monk in a temple when he was a child. He was hungry, so he went out begging with a broken bowl. But then wars broke out all over the country, and there were barren places everywhere. People could not take care of themselves and could not get food, so he had to sign up for the army.
Zhu Yuanzhang, a soldier, had a meal, but it was not a taste. After all, a real knife is a real gun. Tie your head to your belt every day, I don't know when you will be killed. Only officials can drill around the tent without worrying about life and death. So Zhu Yuanzhang at that time began to have the idea of being a leader.
Finally, after some groping, he became a leader. Although he was not a big official, he was deeply liked by coach Guo Zixing at that time, so everyone ignored him. Don't be afraid to eat delicious food every day. Later, Guo Zixing married his adopted daughter to him.
Later, the Yuan Dynasty was overthrown and the rebel army won, but the problem appeared again. Everyone paid too much in the war, and no one wanted to quit, so many forces began to fight again and ended in Zhu Yuanzhang's victory. The world finally settled down and achieved great unity.
When Zhu Yuanzhang became a monk, of course, he didn't expect that the world would be his and his surname would be Zhu. All he did was to save his life. But it happened that the world was finally given to him.
People often say that times make heroes. If it weren't for the situation at that time, Zhu Yuanzhang would only be a monk begging for a living. So, sometimes, timing is very important. Only by recognizing the opportunity and grasping it well can we seize the tail of luck and become a hero of the times.
Zhu Yuanzhang's life experience
Zhu Yuanzhang's real name is Zhu Chongba. The name is actually a birthday date. Zhu Yuanzhang was born in the late Yuan Dynasty, when his rule was particularly brutal. Even the most basic meals of Han people are unpalatable. Coupled with natural disasters every year, people are starved to death everywhere. Zhu Chong Ba family is not a big family. He comes from a civilian background, and his grandparents are both evading taxes. The whole family is running around. Zhu Chong Ba family also has several brothers and sisters. He is the oldest in the family, but because of this, his brothers and sisters still love him very much.
Later, his parents died young and Zhu Chongba became an orphan. In order to beg for food, Zhu Chongba had to find a nearby temple to become a monk. His days in the temple were always scolded by the big monk. Zhu Chong Ba is responsible for cleaning the temple every day, sweeping the floor every day and bringing tea and water to other qualified monks. Even if he was scolded, he just swallowed silently, but before long, there was not enough food in the temple, so the master had to send the monk directly.
A few years later, Zhu Chongba returned to the temple. Because of his increased knowledge in the outside world, even when he returned to the temple, he still wanted to push the Yuan Dynasty to rule himself and establish a dynasty. Finally, Zhu Chong and Pakistan started their own seventeen-year war. When he became emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang's life experience became his greatest concern. In fact, he is still very self-abased, so he will choose extreme means to prevent others from mentioning his life experience.
Zhu Yuanzhang's evaluation
Later generations have different opinions on Zhu Yuanzhang. Some people say that he is resourceful, while others think that he is just a farmer, and he ascended the throne by sheer luck. Zhu Yuanzhang was the founding emperor. During his reign, he did many good deeds, but he also killed many people.
He was born in poverty, so he had a great hatred for landlords, rich people and officials. He felt that if it weren't for these people, his childhood wouldn't be so hard. In fact, this seed has been sown in his young mind, which has a great influence on his later administration. Because of his life experience, he knows what society and people need most. After he took office, he exempted the people from all kinds of taxes and constantly cracked down on corrupt officials, and the people all recognized his actions. He was regarded as an enlightened emperor by later generations, and also known as an emperor without culture. At the same time, he did a lot of things that were discussed by later generations for the stability of his regime.
Zhu Yuanzhang has never read a book, and his imperial edict is the most wonderful, but because he is the emperor, no one dares to make fun of him. The imperial edict he wrote may only be the level of primary school students now, but for Zhu Yuanzhang, who was only slowly exposed to writing in his thirties, his efforts were beyond the reach of ordinary people. It is good that he can write so many words. Some people say that he hates intellectuals, so he launched a literary inquisition, and many people died unjustly. During his reign, he did a lot of good things for the people, recruited talents, attached importance to people's livelihood, and created the rule of Hongwu, which won the love of the people. But in the later period, he was described as an old fool, because he killed everyone who followed him in the farmland, so that future generations could sit firmly in the world. This is the limitation of feudal society, and he did not break through this heavy cage.
