Zhu Yuanzhang, who is eloquent but harsh, can be called a hegemon. His iron-fisted methods have led to the death of many **. Every day, they have to say goodbye to their families and are worried; Above the court, they walked on thin ice, for fear of angering the tyrant; Once they get home from work, they celebrate with their families and rejoice that they have survived another day.
The so-called "companion is like a tiger" is not an exaggeration.
Although Zhu Yuanzhang often expressed dissatisfaction with Han Yike, due to his uprightness and resistance to the powerful, Zhu Yuanzhang was unable to be rude to him in the end. Han Yike, as a famous minister of the Ming Dynasty, is known for his "quick talk of imperial history", he is not afraid of the powerful, dares to speak out, and bravely ** the prime minister Hu Weiyong, who was the sole ruler of power at that time.
His words and deeds show loyalty to the country and a persistent pursuit of justice. Therefore, although Han Yike's struggle with Zhu Yuanzhang lasted for thirty years, Zhu Yuanzhang finally gave him a reward.
When Zhu Yuanzhang and Hu Weiyong had a good relationship, Han Yike's words made Zhu Yuanzhang furious and arrested him and imprisoned. However, Zhu Yuanzhang did not give up on Han Yike and released him soon after.
Han Yike still insisted on speaking out, which made Zhu Yuanzhang feel embarrassed. The courtiers were worried about him, and they often walked by the river, how could they not get their shoes wet. Han Yike was finally put on death row, but Zhu Yuanzhang unexpectedly pardoned him and rescued him from the line of death.
This miracle is recorded as a myth in the "Records of the Tribute of the National Dynasty".
Do you have a grievance? Before the words fell, the thunder stopped, and Han Yike was rescued. Han Yike still insisted on speaking out, but Zhu Yuanzhang did not blame him, because he understood Han Yike's personality and conscientiousness.
Zhu Yuanzhang thought that Han Yike was the most needed talent in the official world, so he endured Han Yike's bullish behavior. As a result, Han Yike was fearless, and he fiercely criticized the people from the vassal king to the minister, so he was regarded as an enemy by many.
It was once rumored that although Han Yike lived a simple life, his home was magnificent. So Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly visited his home. Walking into Han Yike's house, Zhu Yuanzhang found that his family members were wearing patched clothes and the furniture was dilapidated, which was far from the mansion of the imperial court.
Zhu Yuanzhang smiled and said to Han Yike: "You won't hide all the money, right?" Han Yike immediately took out the box containing his money, and then poured it out to show him, but the money box was empty, and there was not even a copper plate.
Han Yike said: "Wechen never saves money, and there is no money to save!" For Han Yike's answer, Zhu Yuanzhang gave a thumbs up: "An incorruptible ** like you is rare in the world!" ”
In the end, Han Yike died during the reign of Emperor Jianwen, and it is said that that night, a big star fell, the war horse neighed, and people said that Han Yike's soul ascended to heaven.
From then on, Han Yike became a role model for the Ming Dynasty officials, who were not afraid of the king's wrath, and went forward to speak to the monarch one after another, even if they were beaten to pieces.
