Zhu Yuanzhang owns the whole world, but why did he listen to Ma Huanghou?

In order to strengthen the imperial power, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty, used the Hu incident to slaughter heroes. After more than ten years, he killed almost all the ministers who made contributions with him. However, such a tyrant, why did he listen to his wife Ma Shi and have a preference?

Speaking of Zhu Yuanzhang, he is also a bad karma born and bred. When he was young, his parents died and he had no food, so he had to become a monk. It happened that there was a natural disaster, locusts were rampant, and the people lived a miserable life. No one went to the temple to burn incense. When monks have no food to eat, the master has no choice but to send them down the mountain to die first.

Zhu Yuanzhang wandered around begging for a living. It was in these days that Zhu Yuanzhang saw the world, broadened his horizons and honed his perseverance. At the same time, the hardships of life and the bullying of years also cast Zhu Yuanzhang's cruel and suspicious character.

Three years later, Zhu Yuanzhang returned to the temple. Tang He, a childhood playmate, wrote to him asking him to join the Red Scarf Army in Guo Zixing. Just then, the ancestral temple was burned by the mutinous soldiers, and Zhu Yuanzhang put down his job and defected to the rebels.

Zhu Yuanzhang was brave, resourceful and eloquent, which was highly appreciated by Guo Zixing. Soon, he was promoted to nine commanders in Qin Bing and betrothed his adopted daughter Ma Shi to him. He became the son-in-law of the marshal, and all the soldiers called him "Zhu Gongzi". My identity has changed. I no longer use the original name "Jiujiu", but my official name is "Bird".

Ma Shi is kind and likes reading, and Zhu Yuanzhang's documents are kept by her. Zhu Yuanzhang's outstanding ability made him suspicious, so Ma intervened to ease the relationship between the two sides. When Zhu Yuanzhang led the troops to the war, Ma Shi led the women to sew clothes and make shoes, and paid for the soldiers themselves.

On one occasion, Zhu Yuanzhang offended Guo Zixing and was locked up without food. Ma bought a baked wheat cake, stuffed it in his arms and secretly gave it to Zhu Yuanzhang. The baked wheat cake was so hot that it blistered his skin. When the army is short of food, the horse always leaves delicious food to Zhu Yuanzhang and sleeps hungry. All this moved Zhu Yuanzhang, who was glad that he had married such a virtuous wife.

Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor and Ma Shi was crowned queen. Zhu Yuanzhang has a bad temper and sometimes goes back to the palace in anger. Ma Huanghou always tactfully advised him to give up the idea of killing people. Shen Wansan, the rich man, helped to repair the city wall, and also proposed to reward the three armed forces, which made Zhu Yuanzhang very depressed: an ordinary man dares to reward our army, I really don't know how small he is, and he must be killed. Ma Huanghou persuaded him that the wealth of an ordinary person can be compared with the wealth of a country, which is not good for him. God will harm him, and the emperor doesn't have to do it himself. Zhu Yuanzhang listened to the queen and sent Shen Wansan to Yunnan.

In the famine years, Ma Huanghou led the harem to be vegetarian and saved money to help the victims. When Zhu Yuanzhang came back from his inspection in imperial academy, Ma asked how many students there were in imperial academy. Zhu Yuanzhang replied that there were thousands of people, and Ma Huanghou said happily: There are so many talents! The allowance they can get every month is only enough for themselves, but what about their wives and children? Since then, the Ming Dynasty established a system to provide food and clothing for college students' families.

In August of the fifteenth year of Hongwu, Ma Huanghou was seriously ill and insisted on not taking medicine. She said to Zhu Yuanzhang, I know my illness. If I can't get better after taking medicine, the emperor will punish me for curing too much. Finally, Ma Huanghou thought of Zhu Yuanzhang again, hoping he wouldn't kill anyone by mistake.

As a wife, the horse is impeccable. Although she can't completely change Zhu Yuanzhang, she always hopes to make Zhu Yuanzhang understand something through her little efforts. While benefiting the people, she is also accumulating virtue for Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang knows this very well. As a husband and wife in distress, Zhu Yuanzhang remembered her kindness and hoped it was normal.

After the death of Ma Shi, Zhu Yuanzhang was particularly sad, and there was no queen since then.
