Yao made a contribution to. He could have been promoted to a higher position and had great power, but he refused to be appointed. Why?
Yao is a Buddhist monk who is not keen on worldly rewards.
As a Taoist in Miaozhi Temple, he is very proficient in Buddhism. Later, because Zhu Yuanzhang chose a monk to preside over the temple fair sacrifice, Yao was able to get close to the real nobility in his life. After Ma Huanghou's death, when monks and kings chanted prayers, Yao volunteered to find a counselor and made a lot of efforts for the plan to seize the throne in the future. But after inheriting the unification, Yao still devoted himself to Buddhism. He served as Zuo Shanshi, the monk recording department, and was in charge of the affairs related to monks. In addition, Buddhism declined in his later years, and he sorted out Tao Luyu and opposed the rejection of Buddhism. This shows that Yao still regards himself as a Buddhist middleman. In this case, it is reasonable not to be raised by the secular.
The emperor is suspicious, so it's better to make plans as early as possible to avoid the end of a hundred birds being born.
After the founding of the People's Republic of China, Zhu Yuanzhang wantonly killed heroes. As his son, Judy is not autocratic, but he is also very suspicious. In the late period of the Jingnan War, Judy's army was on a roll, attacking Sizhou and Yangzhou one after another. Wen Jian was afraid and sent someone to Yanshi to cede territory for peace, but Judy didn't agree. Later, the city of Nanking was breached and Zhu Yunwen was nowhere to be found. Having said that, Judy still suspects killing him.
After Judy succeeded to the throne, the courtiers loyal to Wen Jian were either skinned or fried, and their harem was used as official prostitutes. It's cruel of Judy to do so. After he took office, he attached importance to the supervisory organs, encouraged officials to expose each other, and sent bureaucrats to stab his subjects to death to hide things.
Judy is not a good person. Accompany a gentleman like a tiger. Yao knew this well, so he didn't seal it to dispel his doubts.
After all, Yao helped win the throne, which was an act of rebellion. He is afraid that he will be abused by future generations and will be remembered for thousands of years.
Yao Xiaoguang played a vital role in Judy's usurpation of power. At first, although Judy was rebellious, he dared not act. Yao repeatedly advised him to start fighting and asked a fortune teller to help him make up his mind. He trained soldiers and horses for him in the backyard of the Prince of Yan, made weapons and made full preparations for the rebellion. Yao also made the decision to "attack the city and attack the capital directly". It can even be said that without Yao, there would be no throne of the Prince. Yao is naturally a great hero in his eyes, but in history books, he can't be called a traitor, so he dare not be sealed.
