Today's emperor is the leader of ancient anti-corrosion, that is, Zhu Yuanzhang, the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. Because Zhu Yuanzhang was a beggar and a monk since he was a child, he knew the sufferings of the people at the bottom, and even hated those corrupt officials who took bribes and harmed the people. So after Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, he began to think of ways to deal with these corrupt officials.
First of all, Zhu Yuanzhang laid down several rules. Officials who embezzle more than 12, big or small, will be arrested and beheaded. Besides, they should be executed before they die. In front of ordinary people, these corrupt officials will be cramped, skinned and beheaded. Such cruel punishment also makes many people creepy.
The punishment is cruel, but it must be said that the effect is also obvious. During Zhu Yuanzhang's reign, more than 65,438+million corrupt officials were punished! Zhu Yuanzhang made great efforts to deal with corrupt officials and protect their rights and interests from damage.
After Zhu Yuanzhang's death, no one stole his mausoleum for hundreds of years. This is because Zhu Yuanzhang is deeply loved by the bottom people, not to mention there are special people to prevent Zhu Yuanzhang's tomb from being stolen. Even ordinary people would not do anything to destroy Zhu Yuanzhang's mausoleum.
So Zhu Yuanzhang is a respected emperor in history. Because he knew how to safeguard the interests of the people at the bottom, he was once very prosperous after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, which was inseparable from Zhu Yuanzhang's efforts to punish corrupt officials.
