Zhu Yuanzhang asked the fortune teller about his life span. What did the fortune teller tactfully answer?

When Zhu Yuanzhang heard that Rixin Liu was good at fortune-telling, he ordered Rixin Liu to call Rixin Liu to tell his fortune. Rixin Liu carefully looked at Zhu Yuanzhang's appearance and analyzed the situation at that time. He judged that Zhu Yuanzhang would be a king in the future, and he would also be a public servant under Zhu Yuanzhang's authority.

Although Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of Ming Dynasty, was dubious, he was still very happy to hear Rixin Liu's auspicious words. He promised Rixin Liu that if he could really level the pack and unify the world in the future, he would reward Rixin Liu heavily, and then sent Rixin Liu away. After the reign of Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang of the Ming Dynasty, he thought of Rixin Liu, who used to visit fortune-teller for himself and judged that he could be the emperor's geomantic master. Now he can't violate the promise at that time when he became the emperor. He must call Rixin Liu to the palace, honor his promise and give him a big reward.

However, Zhu Yuanzhang, the Emperor Taizu of Ming Dynasty, considered that Rixin Liu's fortune-telling was very famous, and he was worried that Rixin Liu would be used by traitors and would confuse people. He ordered Rixin Liu not to tell anyone's fortune in the future, or he would kill Rixin Liu, and Rixin Liu agreed. Rixin Liu took a folding fan given by Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of Ming Dynasty, and spent many years playing all over the famous mountains and rivers, and then returned to his hometown. However, Rixin Liu is a wild man. After living at home for a short time, he is ready to go out. Before going out, he said to his wife, "I may not come back this time. I have measured my life and will die in the capital."

Before she died, Aquamarine confessed that Rixin Liu used to read fortune for herself. When Zhu Yuanzhang, the Ming Emperor, learned of it, Zhu Yuanzhang was furious because he had ordered Rixin Liu not to read fortune for anyone. Rixin Liu's reading fortune for Aquamarine was against the imperial edict. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, ordered Jin Yiwei to arrest Rixin Liu and questioned Rixin Liu, saying, "Do you know how long you can live?" Rixin Liu had long heard that Aquamarine had been arrested, and knowing that he was ill-fated, he responded, "I am doomed today!" Then he was killed by Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of Ming Dynasty.
