At that time, Han Liner claimed to be the imperial court, and Zhu Yuanzhang stayed away from him. His attitude is very respectful. However, Liu Ji doesn't think so. Even when he appeared in front of Han Liner, he never worshipped him and said to Zhu Yuanzhang, "Han Liner is just a shepherd." What do you do to commemorate him? Zhu Yuanzhang once asked Liu Ji about his war plan. Liu Ji said, "Zhang Shicheng only cares about saving himself, so it's not worth worrying about. Under the threat of Chen Youliang robbing the master, he went to Chen Youliang first, and forgot about himself because he couldn't justify himself. When Chen died, he was weak and collapsed at once. Then go north to the Central Plains, and Wang Ye can become. " Zhu Yuanzhang said happily, "If you have a good plan, just say it!" At that time, Chen Youliang was striving for peace, expanding eastward, and its power was developing rapidly. Zhu Yuanzhang's men began to waver. Some people suggested surrendering, while others suggested fleeing to Zhongshan. Only Liu Ji stared at his eyes and said nothing.
Zhu Yuanzhang called him to the inner room, and Liu Ji said angrily, "Whoever advocates surrender or escape will be beheaded." Zhu Yuanzhang asked, "What are your plans?" Liu Ji said, "Chen thieves are prone to arrogance, but deep ones can set an ambush and break them. Reincarnated in the sky, the uprising will win in the future. It is here that you seize power and control the enemy to be king. " Encouraged, Zhu Yuanzhang adopted his suggestion, lured Chen Youliang to lead an army to war, and won. Zhu Yuanzhang rewarded Liu Ji for defeating the enemy, but neither Liu Ji nor his polite refusal was affected.
Soon, Chen Youliang's army captured Anqing again, and Zhu Yuanzhang planned to lead the army to conquer it himself. He asked Liu Ji, who strongly agreed, so Zhu Yuanzhang led an army to attack Anqing. From morning till night, Liu Ji is still not captured. He asked to turn Jiangzhou quickly and go straight to Chen Youliang's lair, so the whole army marched west. Unexpectedly, Chen Youliang had to lead his wife and children to flee to Wuchang, and Jiangzhou fell. His Long Xingshou sent Hu Mei to show sincerity and asked Zhu Yuanzhang not to disband the army. Zhu Yuanzhang's face is reluctant. Liu Ji kicked the bed from behind, suggesting that Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly woke up and listened to Hu Mei's request. After Hu Mei surrendered, all counties in Jiangxi were occupied. When Liu Ji lost his mother, the war was so tense that he dared not tell anyone. Before that, he asked to go home and hold a drinking ceremony for his mother. Miao Jun rebelled. He killed Jinhua, Hu Dahai and Geng Zaicheng. The situation in eastern Zhejiang is passively shaken. After Liu Ji arrived at Ququ, he first appeased Xia Yi, the garrison, and then rebelled with Pingzhang Shaorong. Fang Guozhen has always been afraid of Liu Ji, so he wrote a letter to Liu Ji to express his condolences over his mother's death. Liu Ji wrote back to Fang Guozhen and showed him Zhu Yuanzhang's Wild Grass, so Fang Guozhen paid tribute to Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang wrote to Liu Ji's home many times to ask about the military plan, and Liu Ji gave detailed answers one by one, all of which were to the point. Soon, Liu Ji returned to Beijing, and Zhu Yuanzhang was about to personally lead the army to support An Feng. Liu Ji advised: "Han and Wu are waiting for an opportunity to attack. Don't act rashly. " Zhu Yuanzhang didn't listen, Chen Youliang knew, and took the opportunity to lead an army to besiege Hongdu. Zhu Yuanzhang said, "I didn't listen to your opinion and missed the big plan." Then personally led the troops to save Hongdu, and fought with Chen Youliang in Poyang Lake dozens of times a day.
At that time, Zhu Yuanzhang was sitting on Hu's bed, when Liu Ji's entourage suddenly jumped up and shouted, urging Zhu Yuanzhang to move to another ship quickly. Zhu Yuanzhang quickly changed boats. Before he could sit still, the coming cannon smashed his royal spaceship to pieces. Chen Youliang was overjoyed to see the royal ship destroyed. But Zhu Yuanzhang's ship did not retreat, and the Han army was surprised. At that time, the battle in the lake was deadlocked for three days and the outcome was undecided. Liu Ji demanded that the army be moved to Hukou to contain the retreat of the Han army. On that day, the pilgrims fought a decisive battle with Chen Youliang's army. As a result, Chen Youliang was defeated and killed on the way to escape. Since then, Zhu Yuanzhang defeated Zhang Shicheng, made the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains and completed his imperial career, all of which were planned by Liu Ji. In the first year of Wu, Zhu Yuanzhang named Liu Ji as a Tarshish Order and presented him with "Wu Shen Da Shi Li". After Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, Liu Ji made the last military health law. When the national grain tax was determined, except qingtian county, it was modeled after the Song system. Zhao Kuangyin said: "Let Liu Bowen's hometown pass this on as a beautiful dialogue from generation to generation." Liu Ji thought that the Song and Yuan Dynasties lost the world because they were too lenient, and it was time to clean up the discipline, so he had no qualms about ordering that the impeachment case be reported. Guards, eunuchs and attendants who make mistakes will all play the role of Crown Prince and be punished by law, so everyone is afraid of Liu Ji and abide by the law.
Bing Lin, governor of Zhongshu Province, was punished for being selfish and conniving at his subordinates. Li Shanchang has always been partial to Bing Lin in private, so he asked for leniency. Liu Ji didn't listen, and immediately sent someone to report Mao. After being approved, Liu Ji beheaded Bing Lin while praying for rain. Because of this, Liu Ji and Li Shanchang began to have a gap. After Mao returned to Beijing, Li Shanchang told Mao that killing people under the altar was disrespectful to Liu Ji, and people who hated Liu Ji at ordinary times framed Liu Ji.
After Liu Ji's wife died, Liu Ji asked to leave his job and go home. Both Mao and Zhong are under construction and are actively preparing to eliminate this expansion. When Liu Ji left, he said, "Although Fengyang is the hometown of the emperor, it should not be the capital. The emperor should not despise it. " Shortly after the defeat of Dingxi, he fled to the desert and became a frontier fortress. This winter, Mao personally wrote a letter about Liu Ji's conquering work and called him to Beijing. He is well paid. He gave titles to Liu Ji's grandfather and father Yongjia County and to Sir Liu Ji many times, but Liu Ji's resignation was not accepted.
Later, the prince wanted to punish Prime Minister Li Shanchang. Liu Ji advised him: "Although he did it, he has made great contributions and high prestige, so he can mobilize his generals." Mao said, "He hurts you again and again, and you put yourself in his shoes? I want to change you into a prime minister. " Liu Ji kowtowed and said, "How can this be done? Changing prime ministers is like changing beams and columns, and you must use thick and strong big wood; If you use high-quality wood, the house will collapse immediately. "
Later, Li Shanchang resigned, and the Prince wanted to appoint yang xian as Prime Minister. Yang xian is very kind to Liu Ji on weekdays, but Liu Ji still strongly opposes it, saying: "Yang Xian has the talent to be a prime minister, but he is not qualified to be a prime minister." People who are similar to each other must keep a calm mood like water and measure things with justice as the standard, rather than making subjective assumptions. Yang Xian can't do it. Zhao Kuangyin asked Wang Guangyang, and Liu Ji replied, "His temperament is narrower than that of Yang Xian." When asked about Prince Hu, Liu Ji said, "The Prime Minister rides a horse. I'm afraid he will overturn the carriage. " Mao also said: "In this way, only you are the most suitable prime minister for me."
Liu Ji refused to say: "I am so hateful. I am anxious to deal with complicated things. " If I don't want to shoulder this heavy responsibility, I'm afraid I will live up to the emperor's entrustment. There is no talent in the world, so the emperor goes to find it. These people are really unfit to be prime ministers now. Later, yang xian and Hu were found guilty.
Liu Ji helped Mao pacify the world. He is a strong-willed man who hates evil and often conflicts with others. After living in seclusion in the mountains, I only drink and play chess, and never mention my merits and demerits. The magistrate asked, but evaded. Later, the county magistrate dressed in casual clothes and pretended to be a local to visit Liu Ji. Liu Ji was washing his feet, so he asked his cousin to introduce him to the cottage and treat him with yellow rice. At this time, the county magistrate told Liu Ji: "I am from qingtian county." Liu Ji got a fright, immediately got up and called someone, then apologized and left, never seeing each other again.
Liu Ji said at the beginning: "There is an open space between southern Europe and Fujian, which is the lair of salt thieves. If there is chaos in Fang Jia, please set up prison guards. " In the Ming Dynasty, foreign deserters rebelled, and officials hid and did not report it. Liu Ji ordered his eldest son Mclynn Killman Liu to report, but he didn't report to Zhongshu Province first. At that time, Prime Minister Hu Weiwei was in charge of Zhongshu Province. He bears a grudge against Liu Ji's old holiday, and sends people to attack Liu Ji, saying that there is a palace there and framing Liu Ji as his own cemetery. Because the locals refused, Liu Ji asked an inspection department to drive people away.
Hearing this, Mao did not blame Liu Ji, but was moved by these words and took Liu Ji's salary. Liu Ji is afraid. He went to North Korea to apologize, and then stayed in Beijing, afraid to go home. Soon, when he became prime minister, Liu Ji sighed: "If my words can't be realized, it will be the blessing of the whole people." He became ill because of anxiety and anger.
Liu Ji thought he couldn't see the world, so he knew everything before Mao. Whenever there is an emergency, Liu Ji always has the courage to work hard and make plans, which is beyond anyone's measure. In his spare time, he regards Chen as Wang Zhidao. Zhao Kuangyin has been listening, often calling the old teacher Liu Ji instead of his name and saying, "You are my Zhang Zifang." He also said: "The old teacher used Confucius' words to convince me many times. "So, the secret words in Mao Zedong's and Liu Ji's accounts are unknown all over the world, but most of the magic words that spread around the world are all prophecies of Yin and Yang Feng Shui, and not all of them are known by Liu Ji. Liu Ji's articles are magnificent and wonderful, and they are in the same strain as Song Lian. His works include Jade Ion, Faust and Li Meigong Ji. Liu Ji didn't go home until one month before his death. At the age of 65.
