Zhu Yuanzhang disguised himself as a beggar and visited privately. Why did he go back to the palace to kill people?

Before he ascended the throne, Zhu Yuanzhang was also a nobody born in poverty. He was a beggar and a monk, and he was hungry, so he knew what it was like. When he became emperor, he was not sure whether what ministers said was true or not, so he became a civilian and remained anonymous. As an emperor, he can only see what ministers and officials can show, but he doesn't know the specific social situation. Even if you become an emperor, you can't forget your own suffering. Worried about the people, he decided to go to the people in disguise to explore the situation and see if the people lived a stable life.

In fact, it was necessary for the ancient emperor to bring his entourage to visit incognito, but Zhu Yuanzhang, who was bent on working hard for himself, could not fully trust those ministers and guards, so he dressed up as a beggar alone without any men, and thus he infiltrated the people. He felt that it was not enough to know the real situation of the people and just chat with ordinary people in the street and feel the life of ordinary people, so he simply found a place for beggars to rest at night to find out. In the mouth of beggars, Zhu Yuanzhang learned too much truth and unbearable bureaucracy.

Zhu Yuanzhang learned from beggars that officials at that time plundered the people's money for their own interests, did not judge cases impartially, and ignored the legal system of the imperial court. The phenomenon of corruption and bribery increased instead of decreasing, which made Zhu Yuanzhang, who suffered from corruption and hated it since childhood, not angry and arrogant. He quickly found out the truth, spoke with facts, found evidence to punish one by one, and then returned to the palace to start giving orders to kill people.

Zhu Yuanzhang severely punished the evil deeds of these important officials, immediately ordered the beheading of seven officials, and thoroughly investigated a number of corrupt and bribery ministers. After a rectification, what he hates most is this bureaucracy. On the contrary, he hopes that people can live and work in peace and contentment and live a happy and stable life.
