Reveal the real reason why Zhu Yuanzhang refused to let Liu Bowen be prime minister

According to Liu Jichuan's records in Ming Dynasty, before the war, Liu Bowen assumed that Zhang Shicheng was short-sighted and would not attack Nanjing with Chen Youliang, so he suggested to Zhu Yuanzhang to make a quick decision, lure the enemy deeper and severely hit Chen Youliang, thus making Zhu Yuanzhang change from passive to active militarily; Just as Feng was in a hurry, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to save him, and Liu Bowen came forward to stop him in time. It's a pity that Zhu Yuanzhang didn't listen and made a risky move. In the end, the opponent's stupidity did not lead to disaster. Of course, what is even more thrilling is the rescue of Liu Bowen on Poyang Lake.

All this shows not only Liu Bowen's courage and wit, but also his outstanding military strategy and foresight. In addition, he has made great achievements in geomantic omen and astronomy. The location of the Forbidden City in the Ming Dynasty was decided by all the people he led, and the auspicious day of Daming founding ceremony was also decided by him. Liu Bowen said a lot of things that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to say but didn't know how to say, and did a lot of things that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to do but couldn't do.

So Zhu Yuanzhang has always regarded him as his confidant and confidant. Every time I talk to him, he refuses everyone and whispers for a long time. Zhu Yuanzhang always listened respectfully to his suggestions and words and called him "teacher" instead of calling him by his first name. He even compared him to Sean, which shows that the relationship between them is really extraordinary.

Then the question is, since the relationship between the two is so good, why is Liu Bowen's political treatment not high? As early as when Zhu Yuanzhang was king of Wu, he was appointed as Taishiling. Later, Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, and the empire only made him a success. However, the post of prime minister of Zhongshu Province, which holds the power of the whole Ming government, has always been out of touch with him. Why? Investigate its reason, school easy search that nothing more than the following points:

First, long before Liu Bowen came out, Zhu Yuanzhang had established himself in Nanking. At this time, there was a great man named Li Shanchang in his regime. Whenever Zhu Yuanzhang is busy with military affairs at the front, he is in charge of the whole rear area. There is no denying that his talent is also first-class. Can't Liu Bowen be replaced just because he's here? Moreover, no matter how clever Liu Bowen is, it will certainly take some time to succeed a similar prime minister.

Second, Liu Bowen's strength is that he can pinch and calculate, and he is the most suitable strategist or staff officer. If you put him in Li Shanchang's position, he may be able to do it well, but his old subordinates may not buy his account. So it's best to stay unconscious.

Third, Zhu Yuanzhang was very suspicious. Even though he and Liu Bowen have a good relationship, after all, they don't get along for long. Zhu Yuanzhang certainly wouldn't put a person he didn't know very well in such an important position.

Fourth, on the eve of the war, when high-level decision-making, Liu Bowen glared at the capitulators. Judging from many details at that time, this man was honest and didn't know how to beat around the bush. That's why Zhu Yuanzhang made him an official of the court, an official of the court, an official of the court, and an official who supervised the revision of the law. As for the post of prime minister, you need to practice your internal strength. As the saying goes, the prime minister can punt in his stomach, so it is more appropriate for Li Shanchang, who is affable on the surface, to hold this post.

Fifthly, Zhu Yuanzhang was born as a beggar, from Anhui, and he was not the same type as Liu Bowen and Song Lian, the literati in eastern Zhejiang. It was impossible to reach a real tacit understanding, and the eastern Zhejiang dialect was also a big problem at that time. In contrast, he hit it off with fellow villagers such as Li Shanchang, Xu Da and Hu. In addition to the same customs, language, aesthetics, etc. They share more nostalgia.

Therefore, it shows that the original prime minister candidate can only be Huaiyou Group headed by Li Shanchang and others, not Dong Zhe Group headed by Liu Bowen. As for the later Liu Bowen, as we all know, Zhu Yuanzhang's conceit and suspicion kept him from coming to an end.
