Chu Nguyen Chuong's actions marked history and caused emotion even though his heart was not known to be generous

Having been told bad words by an old woman on the street, the peasant king Chu Nguyen Chuong had a way of behaving that made everyone choked with emotion, marking Chinese history, even though he was previously known as a not very generous person. quantity.

The founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty of China - Chu Nguyen Chuong, whose other name is Chu Trong Bat, had a difficult family as a chil.d. In order to earn a living, from a young ag.e he worked as a buffalo herder for the landlord in the village. Later, also used to be a monk. Thanks to a coincidence, under the introduction and guidance of his close friend Thang Hoa, Chu Nguyen Chuong came to work as a soldier under Quach Tu Hung, and from there began his brilliant life.

From 1352, Chu Nguyen Chuong officially joined the rebel army, spent 16 years of struggle, successively defeating opponents such as Tran Huu Luong, Truong Si Thanh and Phuong Quoc Tran. In 1368, Zhou Yuanzhang officially proclaimed himself emperor in Nanjing, becoming a rare "peasant" king in Chinese history. There is no doubt about Chu Nguyen Chuong's ability and charisma, but his heart is not generous. Killin.g a meritorious deity is his biggest crime.

On the outside, Chu Nguyen Chuong is very humble, even after ascending the throne, he often calls himself "Hoai Huu Bo Y" (Hoai Huu is Chu Nguyen Chuong's hometown, "father y" is a cloth shirt, meaning just an ordinary person born in a poor village), but does not allow others to mention his past. Because he used to be a beggar, a monk, but if the mandarins in their writings mention beggars, monks, or monks, they will make things difficult for him. In severe cases, they can even lose their heads, even the word "bald". "bald" is also not allowed to appear in the chapter.

From there, it can be seen how strong Chu Nguyen Chuong's self-esteem is. In other words, from the bottom of his heart, he feels inferiority complex, making his suspicions become heavier. None of the mandarins were without fear and anxiety. Even those who claimed to be brothers with Chu Nguyen Chuong in the past, such as Tuong Quan, Tu Dat, and Thang Hoa, had to live very cautiously and carefully. However, there was an old woman who dared to point directly at Chu Nguyen Chuong and scold her. Not only did Chu Nguyen Chuong not make things difficult for her, but he also invited her into the royal palace. Why is that like that? This must first mention a person named Han Thanh.

In the "Minh History" it is recorded: "Han Thanh, a native of Hao Chau at the en.d of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, was a compatriot of Chu Nguyen Chuong, and was also one of the first people to follow Chu Nguyen Chuong". Han Thanh was extremely brave, every time he went into battle he took the lead, achieved countless victories, and continuously conquered strongholds such as Tran Giang and Thuong Chau.

That's why he was highly valued by Chu Nguyen Chuong and was quickly appointed as the army commander. In the 7th month of the 23rd year of Chi Chinh (the last era of the Yuan Dynasty), Tran Huu Luong led 600,000 troops to attac.k, with a very clear purpose, which was to use one blow to overthrow Chu Nguyen Chuong. That year, Chu Nguyen Chuong only had 200,000 soldiers, losing his advantage in terms of manpower. What made him more headache was that most of the soldiers were not familiar with naval warfare, while naval warfare was the strength of the Chinese army. Tran Huu Luong.

Although he knew he did not have a high chance of winning, the enemy had already arrived at Phan Duong Lake, Chu Nguyen Chuong had no choice but to grit his teeth and fight. Not being able to hold out for long, Chu Nguyen Chuong's warship was surrounded by enemy troops. It could be said that even if he grew wings, it would be difficult to escape. The soldiers around him were helpless and willing to di.e. It was at this critical moment that Han Thanh stood up and told Chu Nguyen Chuong: "I have a pretty similar appearance to you. If I could wear your hat and hat, I would like to impersonate you and fight in your place."

Chu Nguyen Chuong was deeply moved and immediately took off his dragon robe and gave it to Han Thanh to pretend to be him. Han Thanh put on Chu Nguyen Chuong's dragon robe, stood on the bow of the boat, shouted a few words to the enemy, then jumped into the river and committed suicid.e. History books record: "Jumping into the river in front of the enemy, they thought Thai To was dead, so they gradually dispersed, no longer surrounding the boat but returned to report, Chu Nguyen Chuong took the opportunity to escape."

If it weren't for Han Thanh, Chu Nguyen Chuong would most likely have died at Phan Duong Lake, and there would have been no later Ming Dynasty. Therefore, Han Thanh is completely a life-saving benefactor of Chu Nguyen Chuong, this kindness is as great as Mount Thai Son. After ascending the throne, Chu Nguyen Chuong appointed him a great minister, perhaps because of too many things, he forgot about Han Thanh. One day, Chu Nguyen Chuong sat on a palanquin and strolled around the city, taking a look at the people's life situation.

On the way, an old woman in ragged clothes suddenly appeared, stopped Chu Nguyen Chuong's palanquin, and at the same time loudly scolded, saying Chu Nguyen Chuong was ungrateful and unworthy of being emperor. The guard originally intended to arrest her and deal with her on the spot, but the old woman was not afraid at all. Chu Nguyen Chuong felt that things were not that simple. He stepped out of the palanquin and personally asked the old woman. The old woman revealed her identity as Han Thanh's biological mother.

Chu Nguyen Chuong suddenly froze, remembering that Han Thanh had died for him in the past, quickly apologized to the old woman, and sincerely invited her into the palace. After that, Chu Nguyen Chuong posthumously appointed Han Thanh as Marquis of Cao Duong District, made his son his son-in-law, and also built the Trung Than Temple, making Han Thanh the head of the 36 loyal ministers. These actions of Chu Nguyen Chuong moved people. If Han Thanh in heaven were sacred, perhaps they would also be moved and shed tears.
