Preface.
If the feudal dynasty is evaluated by today's standards, the Ming Dynasty should be hailed as the pinnacle. The history of the Ming Dynasty, especially in the early years, is full of jaw-dropping stories. From Zhu Yuanzhang's actions to kill heroes after unifying the world, to Emperor Jianwen's removal from his uncle after only four years on the throne, there have been too many incredible changes in this short history.
The beginning of the Ming Dynasty. In the course of these decades of history, many unexpected events have occurred. For example, Chang Yuchun, who grew up with Zhu Yuanzhang all the way and finally became the minister of the pillars of the Ming Dynasty, actually passed away in the second year of Hongwu;The prince cultivated by Zhu Yuanzhang waited for the moment to wear the dragon robe, but it turned out that the white-haired man sent the black-haired man;What's even more surprising is that Zhu Yun and Emperor Huai Sheng turned out to be neither a grandson nor a long-term emperor, and then it took only four years to give Daming to Zhu Di.
Such an unexpected event makes people think not only about history, but also about a series of hypotheses. If Chang Yuchun hadn't died early, would he have fallen into an unfortunate fate like Lan Yu?Will his presence change Zhu Yuncai's fortune?
Famous generals often meet spring.
In fourteenth-century China, the story of Zhu Yuanzhang's counterattack was a miracle, and among the many generals who followed him, Chang Yuchun's life can also be described as legendary. Like Zhu Yuanzhang, he was born in a poor family, but compared with the original Zhu Yuanzhang, Chang Yuchun's ambition is slightly higher. He thought that he should have some ambition to be a man, so he worked hard to learn martial arts, and when he grew up, he practiced martial arts.
At that time, the dark rule of the Yuan Dynasty caused the dissatisfaction of countless peasants, rebel armies rose up in various places, and bandits began to run rampant. Because Chang Yuchun lived in poverty and couldn't even eat, he joined Liu Ju's bandit organization, engaged in robbing homes and houses with his own ability, and finally lived a rich life.
However, with the affluence of life, Chang Yuchun found that it was not enough to just know how to enjoy the life of fish and meat. He realized that people who only knew how to enjoy themselves in front of them could not have a real future. Therefore, when he heard that Zhu Yuanzhang led the Red Turban Army to attack Hezhou, he decided to go and observe it in person, so as not to lose his eyes.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes.
After Chang Yuchun carefully observed Zhu Yuanzhang in Hezhou for a period of time, after careful consideration, he finally chose to defect to Zhu Yuanzhang. At first, Zhu Yuanzhang thought that Chang Yuchun only took refuge in him because he became a bandit and couldn't make a living, but after some questioning, he found that Chang Yuchun was not a bad person, so he decided to stay with him.
Although Chang Yuchun was brave and invincible on the battlefield, he didn't have much strategy. Zhu Yuanzhang took a fancy to his talent and did not want him to just become a thug, so he often instructed him to use more strategies in war. Under the cultivation of Zhu Yuanzhang, Chang Yuchun gradually evolved from a thug to a brave, strategic, and independent general, and the army led won all battles and became one of the most important generals of the Ming Dynasty.
However, the glory of Chang Yuchun did not last long.
Untimely death. 
In the second year of Hongwu, Emperor Yuan Shun did not give up the opportunity to counterattack, and ordered to quickly go north**, Chang Yuchun was ordered to go to support Beiping, and at the same time completely destroy the Northern Yuan forces. Chang Yuchun went all the way to the north, and did not lead the army back until he broke through the Northern Yuan capital Kaiping.
However, on the way back to the south, Chang Yuchun died suddenly of illness at the age of forty. His early death is very emotional, and future generations are also thinking about whether the history of the Ming Dynasty would have been different if he had lived a long life
Interpersonal relationships that often meet spring.
The importance of Chang Yuchun's status lies mainly in his extraordinary interpersonal relationships. Chang Yuchun and Zhu Yuanzhang are friends of life and death, and he is one of the founding heroes of the Ming Dynasty. And his daughter married Zhu Yuanzhang's most important son, Zhu Biao, and became the crown princess of the Ming Dynasty, that is to say, Chang Yuchun is the uncle of the country. At the same time, the younger brother of Chang Yuchun's wife is Liang Guogong Lanyu.
This means that Chang Yuchun not only has the most direct connection with the crown prince Zhu Biao, but also has a kinship with Zhu Biao's leadership team, and he alone connects Zhu Biao's relationship network. This makes Chang Yuchun's position extremely important.
However, his early death made this network of his connections completely useless. If Chang Yuchun is still alive, how will the history of the Hongwu period develop?
Historical assumptions: change of crown prince.
After Zhu Biao's death, Zhu Yuanzhang's choice of the crown prince was carefully considered before finally choosing Zhu Yunshan. But if Chang Yuchun is still alive, Zhu Yuanzhang's plan will inevitably change.
First of all, judging from Zhu Yuanzhang's decision to let Zhu Biao marry Chang Yuchun's daughter, he trusts Chang Yuchun's family very much. Chang Yuchun's exploits can bring great value to Zhu Biao. Moreover, because Chang Yuchun is honest and simple, and does not have too much scheming thoughts, for Zhu Yuanzhang, he is a very malleable figure.
Therefore, it is very likely that the arrogant Lan Yu will not be killed early, but will wait until the twenty-sixth year of Hongwu to make a move. And the honest Chang Yuchun may also live to old age, or even die well. In this way, Lan Yu will not have a chance to be arrogant, and it is very likely that he will be spared because of this.
Perhaps the biggest change is in the creation of the crown prince. This has changed the story associated with Zhu Yunshan in history.
The prince's father-in-law, the first person in the leadership team.
We know that one of the most important things after Zhu Yuanzhang became the emperor was to kill the heroes. However, if Chang Yuchun is still alive, Zhu Yuanzhang's plan will inevitably be adjusted.
First of all, Zhu Yuanzhang's trust in Chang Yuchun's family prevented Lan Yu and the others from falling into an unfortunate fate early. Zhu Yuanzhang does not need to clear the road so early, but can cultivate a new generation of leaders more calmly.
Secondly, the existence of Chang Yuchun makes the leadership team more complete. Lan Yu was also unable to be arrogant prematurely because of the existence of Chang Yuchun, and it was very likely that she would survive during this period.
After Zhu Biao's death, Zhu Yuanzhang chose Zhu Yunshan as the crown prince. However, if Chang Yuchun is still alive, Zhu Yuanzhang's choice may change.
First of all, Zhu Yuanzhang may not let the Lu family be promoted to the crown princess. After all, at that time, there was also Chang's youngest son, Zhu Yun, who took it from another level. Secondly, due to the existence of Chang Yuchun, he can serve as the mentor of the crown prince Zhu Biao and further consolidate the position of the crown prince. In this way, Zhu Yuanzhang cultivated Zhu Yunzhu more calmly, and there was no need to clear the road in advance.
If this is the case, the possibility of Zhu Di launching the Battle of Jingjing will be greatly reduced, and the history of Zhu Yun's shin will be more stable.
End. Chang Yuchun's early death does leave people with infinite space for reverie. Perhaps it was the fate of his early death, the early death of the crown prince Zhu Biao, which made Emperor Jianwen's final whereabouts unknown.
Just two generations have produced so many suffocating events. History, people can't help but fall into endless reverie.
Comment: The regrets of often meeting spring and the complicated past of history.
Chang Yuchun, the heroic general of the Ming Dynasty, his life experience makes people sigh. Through the description of his life, the article outlines his legendary experience and possible impact on history, which can't help but make people full of questions and regrets about history.
First of all, Chang Yuchun's early death left a regret for Daming. He was born in a poor family, learned a skill through his own efforts, and eventually became Zhu Yuanzhang's right-hand man. However, just when he was conscientiously contributing to the Ming Dynasty, fate allowed him to die young in the second year of Hongwu. This general, who has made great achievements, has made great efforts for the prosperity of the Ming Dynasty, but he has not been able to witness the glory of the Ming Dynasty. Such regrets make people deeply embarrassed by the impermanence of history.
Second, the article provides an interesting description of Chang Yuchun's possible assumptions about the direction of history. By imagining that if Chang Yuchun was still alive, his trust and influence on Zhu Yuanzhang might change the development trajectory of later Ming history. Especially on the issue of the succession of the crown prince, the presence of Chang Yuchun may have greatly reduced a series of intrigues and purges. This kind of assumption makes the reader think deeply about the changes in history, and allows us to see more clearly the twists and turns of history and the importance of characters.
The article also made a detailed analysis of Chang Yuchun's interpersonal relationships, emphasizing his close ties with Zhu Yuanzhang, Prince Zhu Biao and others. These relationships played a pivotal role in the political landscape of the time, but due to Chang Yuchun's early death, this network did not function fully, leaving a suspense for history. This allows readers to think about history not only to see the contributions of individual characters, but also to consider the potential impact of their interpersonal relationships on history.
Overall, the article presents an embarrassing historical picture through the narration of Chang Yuchun's life and historical assumptions. The assumptions and speculations about history make the reader ponder in the reading. This article is not only a tribute to a heroic general, but also a reflection on the twists and turns of history, which makes people sigh for the regrets and accidents in history.
