Zhu Yuanzhang is another founding monarch who was born in cloth after Liu Bang in ancient Chinese history, and also an effective emperor in the late feudal society of our country. Zhu Yuanzhang's ancestral home is Pei County, Jiangsu Province, and it was not until his father's generation that he settled in Weizhou Zhongli Taiping Township. Zhu Yuanzhang's ancestors were farmers.

His father, Zhu Wusi, was hardworking and kind, and reclaimed wasteland for the landlord all his life, but in the end he had no land. When Zhu Yuanzhang was a child, he also attended a private school for a few days, and soon dropped out of school to graze and began to support his family.

in p>1344, the Huaibei area suffered from drought and locust plague, and no crops were harvested. Then there was a plague, and countless people died. Zhu Yuanzhang's parents and brothers all died in less than half a month, leaving only 17-year-old Zhu Yuanzhang in the family.

Zhu Yuanzhang hastily buried his relatives, and in order to survive, he went to the Huangjue Temple and became a child walker. But in less than two months, the abbot of the temple also ran out of food and sent Zhu Yuanzhang and his brothers out to travel around the world to make a living. During these four years, Zhu Yuanzhang traveled to many places at the junction of Anhui and Henan, lived in the wind and ate all the sufferings of the world, but also increased his experience and accumulated rich geographical knowledge.

during his reign, Zhu Yuanzhang was diligent in political affairs all his life, and made many achievements, especially creating a large number of system laws and regulations, which not only laid the foundation of the Ming Dynasty for nearly 3 years, but also contributed to the social stability and economic prosperity in the early Ming Dynasty, and also influenced the Qing Dynasty. From the Ming Dynasty to the Qing Dynasty, the centralized political rule and the unified multi-ethnic country's administrative management system gradually improved.
