The deeds of people who moved China in 1368:

Zhu Yuanzhang, whose courtesy name was Guorui and whose original name was Zhu Chongba, used his arduous struggle to compose a gorgeous chapter from ordinary people to emperors and generals. He used his own experience to tell the world that if there are dreams that are unstoppable, he used

His blood-stained palms warned the world that either you or I would die on the road to imperial power. He used millions of lives as a price to destroy the prime minister and eliminate the disloyal parties. He used his absolute hegemony to monitor the ministers and control them.

All nations.

He is a hero, a role model, and a pillar of the times.

His name is: Zhu Yuanzhang!

Person of the Year 1368 who touched history——Zhu Yuanzhang.

Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, was named Zhu Chongba because he was of the eighth generation among everyone (the entire clan).

My hometown is Zhongli Dongxiang, Haozhou, Anhui.

Zhu Yuanzhang's name was changed only after he rebelled. He dared to put his head out of his waistband and fight for his life. In addition to being forced by the times, I think he still has some courage in it. Otherwise, if you put it on an ordinary person, borrow him

I don’t have the guts to do it, I can’t do it anyway.

Zhu Yuanzhang came from a poor background. During the War of Liberation, he was probably not even considered extremely poor. Three generations of his family were hardcore farmers.

Old man: Zhu Wusi;

Identity: Hardcore poor peasant.

Madam: Chen, what is your specific name? It is not mentioned in the history books and it is not mentioned in the history books. It may be because of the preference for boys over girls in ancient times. For a woman, the name may be optional. Anyway, there is nothing written in the history books.

, I have no way of finding out, we only know that she is also an authentic farmer, which is a good match for Zhu Wusi, at least she is a close match with Zhu Wusi.

We all probably know that in ancient times, when an emperor or a person with a special aristocratic status was born, there would inevitably be some abnormal astrological sights, and it was inevitable that he would be linked to some god or immortal, or simply that he would be a god descending to the mortal world.

Anyway, there is only one purpose, and that is to show that he has an extraordinary background.

【Extraordinary birth】

Zhu Yuanzhang later became the emperor, so when he was born, he naturally could not follow the customs. There are two records of Zhu Yuanzhang's birth in the history books. One is the official record, which says that Zhu Yuanzhang was born at home. When he was born, the house was full of red light, and the house was full of red lights.

It was a strange light. The neighbors thought it was a fire at home and came to put out the fire.

Unofficial records say that he was born in Huangjue Temple.

It is said that there was a severe drought in his hometown of Zhongli County, Haozhou City (now Fengyang, Anhui). The villagers were superstitious at that time, so in order to make it rain, they put up altars and invited monks with large sums of money to pray for rain. Most of the people in the village went

Already.

But Chen didn't go.

She came to Huangjue Temple with a big belly and prayed to the Bodhisattva to bless the baby in her belly to be born quickly, because the baby had stayed in her belly for a long time. According to common sense, the baby should have popped out long ago, but

I don’t know why, but there has been no movement of this child.

Her mother is afraid that there is something evil in her belly, or some weird freak!

That's very unlucky.

In order to let the baby hatch, her mother came to Huangjue Temple and prayed to all the immortals to show their magical powers so that the baby could break out of its shell and be born as soon as possible.

That is to say, in Huangjue Temple, I don't know if it was the appearance of the great immortal or for some other reason. Chen actually fell asleep in the temple. In his dream, he dreamed that the statue of the god placed in Huangjue Temple came to him and gave him a pill.

After Mrs. Chen took it, she saw that the pill was purple-red, the same as the elixir, and was also shining with light. Mrs. Chen was shocked and hurriedly swallowed it in her mouth. The sweet fragrance in her mouth was unusual. At this time, Mrs. Chen woke up.

Soon after, her stomach started to hurt.

Normally, the Huangjue Temple would still be busy, but today everyone was praying for rain, and all the monks in the temple were invited to the altar to ring the bells and recite Buddha's name. The younger novices all went to help, Kuang Kuang

There was no one in the temple. In front of this structure, Mrs. Chen, who had already given birth several times, knew that her child was about to be born. She was crying in her heart and wanted to go home, but it was already too late.

At this time, the villagers who had been praying for rain had been calling for a long time, but they did not see a drop of water from the Dragon King of the East China Sea, so they gave up and prepared to go home and find their respective mothers.

Who would have thought that at this time, the Huangjue Temple in the northwest was blazing with fire, and red light was rising into the sky. They thought there was a fire, and didn't even bother to go home, so they rushed to put out the fire with their belongings.

But when everyone arrived at the temple, the fire suddenly disappeared.

They only heard cries coming from the temple, and everyone who hurried to see what was going on saw that it was a kid with a handle. Reminiscing about the previous scene, they all felt that this person was extraordinary and would definitely be different from ordinary people in the future.

This was the next all-powerful figure, Zhu Yuanzhang!

【Tragic Childhood】

After Zhu Yuanzhang was born, his old man's mood was not as anxious and joyful as our current fathers-to-be are in the hospital. The old man looked at the palm-sized and severely undernourished kid in front of him, but his brows were furrowed and he was upset.

Because when this child is born, the first thing to consider is eating.

Originally, there were already three sons and two daughters in my family, plus the old couple, the family of seven was already tight, not to mention the expenses for illness, medication, and holidays, even for daily expenses.

Expenses are also extremely tight. Now that there is such a little kid, multiple children with multiple mouths to eat and drink every day is already a big problem.

At this time, the old man should be secretly hating!

It's all because I'm a lower-body animal.

My impulsiveness actually led to the addition of such a cub to my family.

It’s all your own fault, and you deserve everything.

In a word, yes!

I deserved it for not taking precautions and taking protective measures.

That's what caused today's bitter consequences.

The old man shook his head helplessly. The child has been born. After all, it is his own flesh and blood. He is reluctant to give it away or sell it. He should keep it for now and deal with it later when he has a good solution!

It is necessary to mention here that during the reign of the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368 AD, a total of 97 years), people were divided into four categories:

The first class are Mongolians (original nobles);

Then there are the Semu people (the northwest ethnic group except the Mongols);

Then came the Han;

The lowest class is Nanren (Southerners).

The Anhui Province where Zhu Yuanzhang was located belonged to the Southerners, the lowest class.

In that era, selling people was not illegal.

Because in the eyes of the Mongols, the Han people are not human beings at all, and the Southerners are even less human.

In their eyes, there is no difference between southerners and cattle.

Even worse than animals!

Because the Yuan people, known as the people on horseback, valued animals much more than people.

It was under this circumstance that Zhu Yuanzhang was born!

This also doomed Zhu Chongba's fate.

No longer explode in silence, but perish in silence.

God has destined this era to be his own glory.

In that era of displacement, Zhu Yuanzhang's family spent every spring and autumn living in a shabby house with excellent ventilation and excellent insulation measures.

Although these days were hard, they were much better than the later days when I had my head in my waistband and had to risk my life at any time.

When he was a boy, Zhu Yuanzhang had no holidays, no study, and no going out. He only had to work non-stop. His work task was: herding cattle for the landlord Liu De's family.

A child with no hair growing all day long follows a strong cow that is twice his size and ten times his weight. This must be something he doesn't want to do, but it is destined to be his fate. Maybe this is

In order to prove what Mencius said, when Heaven entrusts a person with a great responsibility, he must first suffer his mind, strain his muscles and bones, starve his body and skin, and deplete his body.

As for studying, let alone talk about it. On days when you don't even have enough to eat, talking about studying, the Four Books and Five Classics, and the Analects of Confucius and Mencius are even more nonsense.

I lived like this until I was twelve years old.
