2. The four major cases in the early Ming Dynasty are one of the most famous historical events in the Ming Dynasty, which refers to the four famous events or massacres planned by Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, in order to eliminate people he thought were a threat to his court, rectify official administration and punish corruption. After Zhu Yuanzhang pacified the world, he sealed the hero and had doubts about the hero. He took this opportunity to promote the Hu case and the Aquamarine case, clean up the powerful and illegal meritorious deeds, abolish the Chinese book province and no longer set up a prime minister. The total number of cases involved reached more than 30 thousand, and then Zhu Yuanzhang used the arrogance of General Aquamarine to punish more than 15 thousand people. In addition, the air seal case and the Guo Huan case are collectively called the four major cases in the early Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang strengthened the imperial power through a series of means, such as cracking down on heroes, setting up a royal guard and strengthening spy surveillance.
