During the Hongwu period, the Ming Dynasty had just been established, and Zhu Yuanzhang was determined to create a prosperous era of national peace and security, but the unexpected death of the crown prince Zhu Biao brought a heavy blow to the eloquent emperor, and also made the political pattern of the early Ming Dynasty full of variables

Zhu Biao, the prince who was pinned on high hopes, was smart and benevolent since childhood, and won the love of Zhu Yuanzhang, he was well-read, well-versed in the way of governing the country, and what is even more rare is that he was kind-hearted and sympathetic to the people, in stark contrast to Zhu Yuanzhang's strictness, and thus won the love of the government and the opposition, under the careful cultivation of Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao gradually grew into a qualified successor, and he was also regarded as the hope of the future Ming Dynasty
Heaven does not fulfill people's wishes, Hongwu twenty-five years, but the young and strong Zhu Biao died of illness, the news came, Zhu Yuanzhang was grief-stricken, overnight, the once powerful emperor, actually seemed to be much older, he poured all his love into this prince, and now, all this has come to naught
Zhu Biao's death, not only Zhu Yuanzhang's personal tragedy, but also cast a shadow on the future of the Ming Dynasty, the beloved prince, was originally an important force to maintain the stability of the empire, his existence, can effectively balance Zhu Yuanzhang's strong rule, lay the foundation for the future development of the Ming Dynasty, all with Zhu Biao's departure and left a huge power vacuum, but also laid the groundwork for future political turmoil
The Rise and Fall of Blue Jade
Under the wing of Zhu Biao, there is a high-profile general - Lan Yu, he was born in Jiangmen, brave and good at fighting, in the war to pacify the world and the Northern Expedition to the Yuan Dynasty, he has repeatedly made meritorious contributions, and has made great contributions to the establishment and consolidation of the Ming Dynasty, Lan Yu has a close relationship with the crown prince Zhu Biao, is the uncle of the crown princess, and has therefore been trusted and reused by Zhu Yuanzhang
Lan Yu has an arrogant personality and is proud of his achievements, with the accumulation of military achievements, his ambition has gradually expanded, he has no one in his eyes, he does not put the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government in his eyes, and even Zhu Yuanzhang's is deaf to it, although Zhu Yuanzhang admires Lan Yu's military talent, but he is also dissatisfied with his domineering behavior
When Zhu Biao was alive, he could still restrain Lan Yu's words and deeds, and with Zhu Biao's death, Lan Yu lost his restraint and became more unscrupulous
Zhu Yuanzhang is not ignorant of what Lan Yu did, but he takes into account Lan Yu's merits and the feelings of the crown princess, and has been holding back, Zhu Biao's death made Zhu Yuanzhang realize that if he doesn't take action, Lan Yu's ambition will sooner or later become a problem for the Ming Dynasty
The tragedy of the rabbit and the fox: Zhu Tong's helplessness and tragedy
Different from the soaring and domineering of blue jade, Zhu Tong is a gentle and elegant Confucian scholar, he is the son of Zhu Sheng, the founder of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Sheng is resourceful, and has made great contributions to Zhu Yuanzhang's seizure of the world, and his nine-character policy of "building high walls, accumulating grain, and slowly becoming king" has become the guiding ideology of governing the country in the early Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang has great respect for Zhu Sheng, and has promised that after a hundred years, he will save his son's life
Zhu Tong inherited his father's talent, he was well-read at a young age, proficient in scripture and history, Zhu Yuanzhang arranged him to the East Palace, as the prince's teacher, hoping that he could assist Zhu Biao in governing the country, Zhu Tong was cautious, abided by his duty, and won Zhu Biao's trust, but he was unfortunately involved in the blue jade case, and finally ended up in a different place
The tragedy of Zhu Tong was a victim of the political struggle in the early Ming Dynasty, although he did not participate in Lan Yu's rebellion, but because of his close relationship with Lan Yu, he was regarded as a potential threat by Zhu Yuanzhang
Bloody Rain: The cruelty and helplessness of politics in the early Ming Dynasty
The death of the crown prince Zhu Biao became the political pattern of the early Ming Dynasty, in order to consolidate the imperial power, and in order to clear the obstacles for the young imperial grandson Zhu Yunwen, Zhu Yuanzhang decided to attack the Lanyu Group, Hongwu 26 years, Zhu Yuanzhang arrested Lanyu for the crime of treason, and connected many heroes and generals, known as the "Lanyu case" in history
The Lan Yu case was the biggest political case in the early Ming Dynasty, the case was widely implicated, the impact was far-reaching, and it was shocking, Zhu Yuanzhang used thunderous means to eradicate the military group headed by Lan Yu and consolidate the imperial power, but also carried the infamy of "indiscriminate killing of heroes".
The political stage in the early Ming Dynasty was full of bloodshed, the cruelty of the power struggle, and the complexity of human nature, which was vividly shown in this history, Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, Lan Yu, Zhu Tong, these historical figures, all played an important role in this game of power, and their life trajectories also reflected the unique marks of that era
