Liu Bowen Opposes Fortune Telling _ The Story of Liu Bowen Opposes Fortune Telling
In the fourth year of Hongwu, Li Shanchang resigned due to illness. Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to take yang xian, Hu as prime minister and ask Liu Bowen for advice. Liu Bowen expressed strong opposition, and respectively to the emperor said the reasons for opposition:
1 Yang Xian has the ability to be a prime minister, but he does not have the temperament to be a prime minister;
Wang Guangyang also has the ability to be a prime minister, but his ability is smaller than that of Yang Xian.
Hu Ba is compared to a horse driving a car. Not only can this horse not pull the car well, but it will also knock it down.
Later, these three men became prime ministers before and after, and they were all killed by Zhu Yuanzhang for the following reasons:
Yang xian:
Yang's outstanding talent played an important role in Zhu Yuanzhang's farmland. In July of the third year of Hongwu, Zhu Yuanzhang promoted yang xian to Zhongshu Zuocheng, and was appointed Zhongshu Zuocheng, who was killed that month. According to the MAO MAO memoirs, volume 50:
A surname made Liu Ji suffer from his rape and all kinds of shady things, and he was furious, making ministers hold back their questions. The word Xian fell, making Sui and Bing fall?
Wang Guangyang
After Yang Xian was punished, Mao Ba called him back. This winter, Mao named him a loyal and diligent man. In his letter of recommendation, he said that he was good at handling complicated affairs, and repeatedly put forward the policy of loyalty, comparing him to Sean and Kongming.
After Li Shanchang retired, he thought that he was the right prime minister and Hu was the left prime minister. Because he couldn't make any suggestions, he was demoted to Guangdong to participate in politics, but Mao was always very good at it and called him Left. Hong Wu was awarded the right prime minister for ten years. After that, he indulged in debauchery, and became prime minister with Hutong, drifting with the tide. In December of the twelfth year of Hongwu, Zhong Cheng Tu Jie said that Liu Ji was poisoned by Hu and should know the inside story. Mao asked him and replied? There is no such thing. ? Mao was furious, accused you of cheating and exiled him to Guangnan. When the boat arrived in Taiping, Mao pursued Zheng Wen in Jiangxi, but did not expose yang xian's adultery in Zhongshu Province, and gave him an edict to be executed.
Hu
In the first month of the sixth year of Hongwu, Wang Guangyang, the right prime minister, was demoted to Guangdong to participate in politics. Only mediocre people are those who specialize in the affairs of Chinese books and provinces. In July, he was appointed as the right-wing prime minister, and soon he was promoted to the left-wing prime minister, and Wang Guangyang was appointed as the right-wing prime minister. Since yang xian was punished, the emperor thought Wei Yong was very talented. Because the emperor loved him, he began to take power, killing and recalling major events, and some went their own way without reporting to the emperor. Each department plays the throne, and if it is unfavorable to itself, it will not be given;
Accepting countless bribes from people who are keen on fame and fortune and ministers who have lost their positions;
General Xu Da hated his treachery and told the emperor calmly, but he was accused of attempting to murder Xu Da.
In the suggestion, Cheng Liuji also said his shortcomings, so he took advantage of the opportunity that the emperor sent him to take a doctor to visit Liu Ji and poisoned Liu Ji.
Hu's ambition was triggered by stalagmites that suddenly appeared in Dingyuan well in his hometown. The water is several feet deep, and flatterers scramble to say it is a symbol of good luck. However, his ambition expanded, so he began to form a small group and made the following preparations:
Make Hou Lu Zhongheng and Pingliang Hou Fei gather their foreign military forces;
Make his brother Li Cunyi secretly lobby Li Shanchang;
Send Wei to pay Lin Xian to the sea to recruit and meet the enemy;
Send the old minister of the Yuan Dynasty to be named Shu Yuan, submit to the heirs of the Yuan Dynasty, and request to send troops to do westernization;
When Hu plotted against him, it happened that his son crossed the city in a carriage and died under it, but he killed the driver. The emperor was furious and ordered him to pay compensation. However, Yong asked for gold and silk compensation to drive people away, which was rejected by the emperor. Therefore, Wei Yong colluded with vestbo, Zhong You, Tu Jie and others to inform the Quartet and obey his own military officials. In the first month of the thirteenth year of Hongwu, Tu Jie reported the disaster. Shang Hao, an official from Zhongshu Province, also condemned Wei Yong's plot. The emperor ordered the courtiers to take turns to interrogate, and the words were connected to vestbo and Tu Jie. Courtiers said zhu yuanzhang:
Tu Jie was also involved in the conspiracy, but when he saw that things failed, he was going to report an accident and had to kill him. ?
So I killed Wei Yong, Chen Ning and Tu Jie.
