Why did Zhu Yuanzhang kill the fortune teller? The point is, fortune tellers are fine, okay?

The fortune-teller named Rixin Liu mentioned in the title is a famous fortune-teller in Jinhua, Zhejiang Province in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang went to Jinhua when he was in Jiangnan. He heard that Rixin Liu's fortune-telling was accurate, so he asked Rixin Liu for a fortune.

Rixin Liu was killed for breaking his promise.

At that time, Tang He and others went to tell fortune with Zhu Yuanzhang. Rixin Liu first calculated his life for Tang He and others, asserting that these people would be either rich or expensive in the future, but he didn't want to calculate for Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang was puzzled and asked why. Rixin Liu motioned for Zhu Yuanzhang to let his entourage step down, and then pleasantly told Zhu Yuanzhang that his life was extremely rich and he would be the son of heaven in the future. Zhu Yuanzhang was very happy to hear this, but his heart was only dubious.

A few years later, it turned out that Rixin Liu was completely right. Zhu Yuanzhang became the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty as he wished, and Tanghe and others were indeed blocked. Zhu Yuanzhang remembered Rixin Liu's fortune-telling in the future and was very grateful to Rixin Liu, so he called him into the palace and prepared to give him a reward.

However, Rixin Liu declined Zhu Yuanzhang's kindness and only asked Zhu Yuanzhang to travel around the world? Pass? . Zhu Yuanzhang thought about it, picked up a pen, recorded the summoned scene on a white paper fan in the form of poetry, with a signature at the end, and then took out the seal and stamped it. With Zhu Yuanzhang's imperial inscription and signature seal, Rixin Liu can naturally travel around the world with this paper fan in the future, but he also guarantees that Zhu Yuanzhang will not tell others fortune in the future.

More than ten years later, Liang Gong and Aquamarine were convicted. When Aquamarine was executed, she lamented that Mr. Liu was too accurate. Aquamarine's words reached Zhu Yuanzhang's ears. Zhu Yuanzhang sent someone to investigate and found that aquamarine had calculated her life not long ago. At first, Rixin Liu didn't want to tell Aquamarine's fortune, but in the end, she couldn't stand Aquamarine's carrot and stick and calculated her life.

In this way, Rixin Liu broke his promise to Zhu Yuanzhang not to tell others' fortune, which was tantamount to deceiving the king, so he was killed by Zhu Yuanzhang.
