Ancient Liu Bowen fortune-telling

To be a prime minister, you need quiet inside, take righteousness and reason as the standard to judge right and wrong, and have an inclusive heart to calculate for others, not for yourself.

Zhu Yuanzhang will ask Liu Bowen about many things, and Liu Bowen will help him to judge people, saying that this person is worse than Yang Xian, and even has no talent as a prime minister. He asked Hu if he could become a photographer. It's like letting Hu drive, Liu Bowen said. I'm worried that the axis will be damaged. Hu is not the best candidate, but everyone Zhu Yuanzhang likes is opposed by Liu Bowen.

Of course, as the supreme leader, Zhu Yuanzhang must be very unhappy. He didn't listen to Liu Bowen's advice and appointed Hu Weixiang. As a result, contradictions broke out between Hu and Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang finally put them to death, destroying the nine families. Liu Bowen's prophecy came true. Liu Bowen is really a coup.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang is a suspicious person, Liu Bowen's life is still very painful and not so happy. Many important officials who made great contributions were killed by Zhu Yuanzhang because of Gao Zhen's work. After these experiences, Liu Bowen learned his lesson and became cautious gradually. Especially after making great contributions, he uncharacteristically kept a low profile.

Zhu Yuanzhang was a great hero in Hongwu for three years, and Liu Bowen called him "Cheng". Liu Bowen was given such a high position, but he was not greedy for money. In the fourth year of Hongwu, Liu Bowen resigned and returned to his hometown, living in seclusion and never asking about the failure of state affairs. Liu Bowen, who lives in seclusion, is smarter than a fool. He acted like an illiterate old farmer and never had any contact with officials.

Since I quit my job and went back to my hometown to live in seclusion, I have been happy every day, never mentioning my past or my friendship with Zhu Yuanzhang. Later, the local magistrate requested several times, but Liu Bowen never met him to avoid suspicion. Later, the magistrate of a county was helpless and had to pretend to be a common people to visit him. Liu Bowen calculated that this person is a magistrate of a county, and immediately showed signs of fear, politely declined not to meet.

This shows that Liu Bowen, who entered the DPRK for the last time, was in an awkward position. Sometimes even if you are calculated, you have to face it and you can't escape.
