There is a popular saying in China that "the world is divided into three parts, and Liu Bowen is unified by the world". Compare Liu Bowen in the Ming Dynasty with Zhuge Liang, the "demon" in the Three Kingdoms period. Under the influence of folklore, Liu Bowen has become a man of God who knows five hundred years, astronomy and geography. ? Liu Bowen was exceptionally clever and gifted from an early age. Influenced by his scholarly family, he loved thinking and reading since childhood, and devoted himself to astronomy, geography, the art of war and mathematics, and gained a lot of experience. He has a good memory. He reads from line to line. The writing style is also great. ? 65,438+04-year-old, went to counties to study Spring and Autumn Annals. At the age of 65,438+07, he studied Neo-Confucianism in Song and Ming Dynasties with Zheng Fuchu, a famous scholar in Chuzhou. He became a famous figure in Zhejiang at a young age. His teacher Zheng Fuchu once said eight words: He will be a great man in the future. Later, he was admitted to the Jinshi and became an official in the Yuan Dynasty. However, after going in and out three times, he still chose to retire to the mountains with a cold heart. It was not until after Zhu Yuanzhang's uprising that he came out again after three visits to Mao Lu asked him to go down the mountain. Later, he helped Zhu Yuanzhang destroy the world and establish the Ming Dynasty. ? In A.D. 1368, after Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty ascended the throne in Nanjing, Liu Bowen, who made great contributions, was immediately appointed as the founding father, and was appointed as an official and official of imperial academy. In recognition of Liu Bowen's special contribution and great achievements, Zhu Yuanzhang also issued a letter to exempt qingtian county, Liu Bowen's hometown, from taxes. This is the only county in Chuzhou that does not increase taxes. Soon after, Liu Bowen's grandfather and father were made Duke of Yongxi. In the third year of Hongwu (1370), Liu Bowen was appointed as a bachelor of Hong Wen Pavilion, and was awarded the positions of "founding the country, keeping the culture, being a minister, being a good doctor and protecting the army", and was awarded the title of Zhicheng Bo with a salary of 24 1 stone. At this time, Liu Bowen's own career and the development of the Liu family in Qingtian were in full swing, reaching the most brilliant heyday. ? And Liu Bowen also knew the truth of torrent, so he voluntarily resigned from all his posts in the fourth year of Hongwu (137 1 year) and retired to Qingtian for seclusion. Liu Bowen did this because he saw that Zhu Yuanzhang was a monarch who only shared joys and sorrows. It is embodied in the burning of the Qing Palace Building. ? According to legend, after Zhu Yuanzhang pacified the world, he built a celebration building, which was euphemistically called: awarded the National Medal of Honor to the Founding Heroes. The heroes were very moved when they heard this, and they praised four words in unison: Mao Yingming. Only the military strategist Liu Bowen was worried. He came to the palace alone and told Zhu Yuanzhang that now that Wang Ye has become a city, I am willing to resign and return to the field. "Zhu Yuanzhang repeatedly stay not to live, so we have to take out a lot of gold and silver to Liu Bowen, personally sent out of the palace. ? Liu Bowen left the palace to bid farewell to his friend Hu Dahai, king of the East China Sea. Finally, Liu Bowen said 12 to Hu Dahai: He never left the emperor on the day of the celebration banquet of Hero House. " Hu Dahai unknown so, also want to ask, Liu Bowen has drifted away. ? The celebration building will be built soon. Zhu Yuanzhang quickly chose a day to invite the founding heroes to dinner. The heroes at the party congratulated each other and each other. Very lively. Hu Dahai is absent-minded. He thought of Liu Bowen's parting words, lifted up his eyes and looked at the roof, carved beams and painted buildings. Suddenly, he put his ear close to the wall and knocked on the wall several times with his hand. He felt the sound "thump" and his face was as white as paper. Just then, I heard a loud cry: "The emperor is coming!" " Guan Bai stood up and bowed. Zhu Yuanzhang swaggered into the hall with a big smile. The banquet was full of passion. Hu Dahai, a heavy drinker, dared not drink a bite. He has been paying close attention to Zhu Yuanzhang's every move. After three rounds of wine, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly stood up and walked away. Hu Dahai hurriedly catch up. Zhu Yuanzhang found someone behind him. Looking back, I saw Hu Dahai and asked, "How did the second brother go?" ? "Hu Dahai said," I'm here to protect you. "Zhu Yuanzhang said," "No need." Hu Dahai suddenly mourned, "Does the Emperor really leave no one behind? If the emperor insists, I sincerely hope that your majesty will take good care of his wife, children and mother in the future. " Zhu Yuanzhang was secretly surprised. He was silent for a while and said to Hu Dahai, "Come with me. ? Just a few hundred meters away from the Qing Palace building, the two of them suddenly heard a loud noise. The hero's building was full of bricks and flames. All the poor heroes died in the fire. ? Liu Bowen escaped unscathed, only saying 12 saved Hu Dahai's life. He is really a man of god. It is reported that the story of burning down the Qing Palace was compiled by later generations, but in any case, it can prove Liu Bowen's unique vision and super intelligence from another side. Later, Liu Bowen lived in seclusion in Qingtian for two years. He originally wanted to preserve his sanity. However, his fame was so great that he was turned into a living immortal by the people, which naturally aroused Zhu Yuanzhang's suspicion. ? In the sixth year of Hongwu (A.D. 1373), Liu Bowen's political opponent Hu became the left prime minister, instructing others to falsely accuse Liu Bowen, saying that he would occupy a piece of "kingly land" called "Yang Ming" as his grave, with no good intentions. Zhu Yuanzhang immediately deprived Liu Bowen of his seal. Liu Bowen was so scared that he went to Nanjing to apologize to Ming Taizu himself and stayed in Nanjing, afraid to come back. Next, Hu was promoted to the right prime minister, and Liu Bowen was more worried. In the end, he couldn't afford it. Soon, Hu brought the imperial medicine to visit Liu Bowen. After taking the medicine, Liu Bowen got worse and died soon. ? Liu Bowen's death obviously had a lot to do with that pill. However, whether this medicine was poisoned by Hu without authorization or by Zhu Yuanzhang has been controversial for thousands of years and has become an unsolved mystery.
