The amazing prophecy of Liu Bowen, the founding adviser of the Ming Dynasty

It was twenty years ago, when the Ming Dynasty was just established. One day, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming emperor, was eating sesame cakes in the palace. The attendants in the palace told him that Minister Liu Ji wanted to see him, so he summoned him quickly.

So who is Liu Ji? Liu Ji, a famous minister of the Ming Dynasty, also known as Liu Bowen, was the founding adviser of Zhu Yuanzhang. It is said that he is also proficient in Hyunri, such as image, number, reason and calculation, and can often predict good or bad luck. Zhu Yuanzhang Liu Ji made great contributions to Zhu Yuanzhang, and was later named the most sincere uncle, which won the trust of the emperor. On this day, he met Zhu Yuanzhang, and Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly had an impulse to try his hand. It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang took a bite and covered the sesame seed cake with a bowl. Then Liu Ji came in and asked the teacher, who was familiar with these figures. Can you tell me what's in the bowl? Liu Ji closed his eyes, pinched his fingers and replied, This is half like the sun and half like the moon. It was once bitten by a golden dragon, and so was this food. Open on see, it was Zhu Yuanzhang bite sesame seed cake. When Zhu Yuanzhang saw this, he was even more impressed by Liu Ji. Then, he suddenly and seriously ordered Liu Ji to predict Zhu's fate: What will happen in the world? Has the Zhujiajian enjoyed it for a long time? Liu Ji quickly replied: "I have 10 million sons and grandchildren in Qian Qian. Why do you ask!" ! You know, in the ancient feudal dynasty, as a courtier, he was a little careless in answering this question, and he might lose his head at any time when driving cattle, so Liu Ji quickly tried to flatter the emperor. But Zhu Yuanzhang was not satisfied with this, because he cared not only about the fate of the dynasty when he was alive, but whether the Zhu family's world could continue. With this question, Zhu Yuanzhang said to Liu Ji: Although the rise and fall of the world has been fixed since ancient times, the world is not dominated by one person, and only sages can enjoy it. Why don't you say something? Simply try to force him to predict the future fate of the dynasty. But because of the importance of the matter, Liu Ji knelt down in horror and begged, "Do you know? It's not a misdemeanor for me to reveal the secret. Your majesty will only dare to fight if he forgives my death. So Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a gold medal to avoid death, which made him dare to speak. In this way, the monarch and ministers began to ask questions, and Liu Ji finally revealed a series of predictions. These predictions were recorded by people at that time, and later people called them pancake songs. As for what happened behind Zhu Yuanzhang, Liu Ji first predicted: I will unify the whole country and move to Daming, moving south and moving north. Although the prince is a direct descendant, satellites and satellites are high arch defense. When Liu Ji said that he would move from south to north, he predicted that the capital of the dynasty would move north. Although the prince is a direct descendant, the satellite is a grandson, which means that although the prince is a direct descendant, the satellite should inherit the throne and pay attention to your grandson. Among them, satellite, satellite, actually refers to the later emperor Wen Jian, who will be in great trouble when he becomes emperor. Sure enough, twenty years later, 1392, Prince Zhu Biao died of illness, and then Zhu Yuanzhang made his grandson Zhu Jun _ the Crown Prince. Zhu Yuanzhang, who didn't know divination, thought what he said was to attack the city and defend the land, so he asked doubtfully, Our cities are all very strong and tight. How can we prevent it? Liu Ji went on to say: although the capital of Chenguan is consolidated and well defended, there seems to be no danger unless swallows fly into Beijing. In this city, the imperial court escorted a personal expedition team, a hospital named Jiangshan Yongle Ping, the bald men came to Mo Wen Garden, and half the heroes returned to their hometown. These words also predicted the great changes that would take place after he ascended the throne. Unless the swallow flies to Beijing, it means that Zhu Yuanzhang's fourth son, Prince Judy, attacked Nanjing. Yongle Ping, Jiangshan Pavilion, refers to Judy. He became emperor and changed his name to Yongle. So, when the bald men came to Mo Wen Garden and half the heroes returned to China, what did they imply? It turned out that a mysterious figure helped Prince Judy launch a coup. He is Yao. Yao, a medical disciple, became a monk at the age of 14 and was proficient in Yin and Yang. During the Hongwu period, the court ordered famous monks who were proficient in Confucianism to concentrate on the examination of rites, and Taoist monks were among the best. He could have become an official, but he just got a robe. because

As for the return of half the heroes, it means that after Prince Judy usurped the throne, most of the civil servants and military commanders in Wen Jian returned to their hometowns. Later, Liu Ji predicted a series of major events in the Ming Dynasty to Zhu Yuanzhang in one breath. Mainly: the remnants of land rover in the north, who predicted the changes in civil engineering and lived in harmony with their relatives. Heroes who don't pay their debts dare not remonstrate, because they are afraid that creatures will cover the Lord. The country suppressed Ruiyun for seven years, and the Hu people did not dare to harm the virtuous. Send Jinlong back to the past, and the clouds will open the sun and the moon to shine on the frontier; It is predicted that the world in Wei Zhongxian will be hungry and cold, and dragons will ride babies. It is forbidden to walk sideways in the palace. Jin Longlang is too ordinary. It is said that Kun Yuan followed the imperial court and appointed eunuchs to protect the country, and the female ghost in Bataan made trouble in the imperial court. Li Zicheng Uprising was predicted, and his ancestral home was in northern Shaanxi, Yi and Hangzhou. The Duke no longer faced the Golden Gate, and eighteen children and grandchildren fought back. Liu Yao said that "there is a fall in the wood, and it takes five minutes to make a knife." Literature does not value martial arts, and heroes always have no spring. Wuzi is ugly and messy, and people are not at home everywhere. In case of famine and bandits, keep osmanthus safe, and so on. In fact, the prediction of Yongle Grand Ceremony began with Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming emperor, and continued until the overthrow of the Manchu Dynasty. But Liu Ji dare not be too explicit, because it involves such a big event as regime change. So predictions are often hidden, like riddles, which make people quite puzzled. However, only after more than 20 years, the development of the political situation in the Ming Dynasty unexpectedly fulfilled Liu Ji's prediction.
