1On April 7, 1385, Zhu Yuanzhang, who was the first of the twenty-four generals in Huaixi of the Ming Dynasty and the first among the six founding kings of the Ming Dynasty. Zhu Yuanzhang's "Great Wall" was known as the first hero of the founding of the Ming Dynasty. Wei Guogong Xu Da and Xu Tiande passed away at the age of 54. age.
Twenty-four generals: Xu Da, Tang He, Wu Liang, Wu Zhen, Hua Yun, Chen De, Gu Shi, Fei Ju, Geng Zaicheng, Geng Junyong, Tang Shengzong, Lu Zhongheng, Hua Yunlong, Zheng Yuchun, Zheng Yulin, Guo Xing, Guo Ying, Hu Hai, Zhang Long, Chen Huan, Xie Cheng, Li Xincai, Zhang He, Zhou Dexing
The six founding kings: King Xu Da of Wuning in Zhongshan, King Zhongwu of Kaiping Chang Yuchun, King Wujing of Qiyang Li Wenzhong, and King Tanghe of Wuxiang in Dongou , King Muying of Zhaojing of Guizhou and Ninghe, and Deng Yu of Wushun of Ninghe enjoyed all the mourning and honors after their death. Zhu Yuanzhang gave him a cemetery, wrote a eulogy, named him a king, fixed a posthumous title, painted a portrait, and It was with the Imperial Ancestral Temple, and from then on Xu Da was King Wuning of Zhongshan!
After Xu Da's death, Zhu Yuanzhang treated him so well, which made many people envious. But more people think that Zhu Yuanzhang is all acting, that he is a real drama emperor, and that he is just a cat crying and a mouse pretending to be compassionate! They would say without hesitation, who didn’t know that you were the one who killed Xu Da! Zhu Yuanzhang is so bad, he is simply a tyrant!
1. Xu Da’s death in the TV series - died of roast goose
1, Obs version of Xu Da
The reason why they want to say this is that in the TV series about Zhu Yuanzhang, there is a scene where Xu Da fell ill and died after eating roast goose and drinking alcohol.
In Hu Jun's version of "Zhu Yuanzhang", Xu Da, played by Obs (well, I can confirm that he is not Jobs), returns from the Northern Expedition and has a heart-to-heart talk with his old leader and close buddies. When talking about his body, Xu Da said that he was old and had back gangrene, which was very painful. What made him even more uncomfortable was that the imperial doctor repeatedly told him not to drink alcohol or eat chicken, duck or goose. But these are Xu Da's favorite foods and drinks, but he has to hold them in for the sake of his health.
That night, the two soldiers of Jinyiwei beside Zhu Yuanzhang and two soldiers gave Xu Da a whole roast goose. Xu Da, facing the reward given to him by his "good brother", had mixed feelings and despair. He howled and burst into tears, eating meat and drinking wine from a large bowl, and died before dawn.
2, Zhang Fengyi's version of Xu Da
In Chen Baoguo's version of "The Legendary Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang", Xu Da, played by Zhang Fengyi, also suffered from back gangrene and was rewarded with roast goose by his "Zhu teammates" and "god rival" brother emperor. It's just that Zhang Fengyi's version of Xu Da eats roast goose, which lacks the sadness and despair of Obs' version of Xu Da and has more open-mindedness and wry smile. In this way, Zhang Fengyi's version of Xu Da finished the roast goose gracefully in front of the eunuchs. Chen Baoguo's version of Zhu Yuanzhang was a little bit intolerant when he rewarded Xu Da with roasted goose. When Xu Da ate the roasted goose and became bedridden, he personally went to Xu Da's bedside to "visit his illness and ask about his injuries." It truly expresses Zhu Yuanzhang's ferocity and heartache, and subtly and three-dimensionally brings to life the complex psychology of Zhu Yuanzhang, a complex emperor. Xu Da's last supper, Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to watch him die!
2. Clarify the rumors of rumors!
What is widely circulated on the Internet is that Zhao Yi's "Notes on the Twenty-Two Histories" recorded the death of Xu Da, saying that Zhu Yuanzhang gave Xu Da a steamed goose, and Xu Da died after eating the steamed goose. The reason is very simple. What people with back gangrene fear most is steamed goose!
When I thought of what Mencius said, "It is better to have no books than to believe in books." Out of responsibility for the readers, I really read Zhao Yi's "Notes on the Twenty-Two Histories" page by page. I read it for more than 20 minutes, looking back and forth. After searching three times, I finally found the original text.
Long Xingci recorded that Xu Da suffered from gangrene, and the emperor gave him a steamed goose. Goose was the most taboo for gangrene, and Xu Da ate it with runny eyes and died. It's almost impossible for him to die. This is a groundless rumor
"Notes on the Twenty-Two Histories" are the notes of the historian Mr. Zhao Yi. It is said that the selection of materials is very serious, the language is very rigorous, and the research is very strict. Therefore, he said in "Notes of the Twenty-Two Histories" that "Long Xing Ci Ji" said that Xu Da had gangrene, and Zhu Yuanzhang gave him steamed goose. Who doesn't know that gangrene is most afraid of goose meat? Xu Da ate the meat with tears in his eyes. This is dead. Xu Da would not have died if this were not the case. This is really serious nonsense.
Zhao Yi said that people are talking nonsense, but he is not like that, because "Long Xing Ci Ji" does not say at all that Xu Da will die from eating a goose!
"Beijing Daily" client 2022-05-04 20:45 once wrote about Xu Da eating goose meat
However, the "Huang Ming Chuan Letters" said that there was "horse meat" in the food, which caused Xu Da's death.
In line with the principle of seeking truth and being pragmatic, and searching for evidence, I also read the "Emperor's Letters" compiled by Chen Jian of the Ming Dynasty and compiled by Shen Guoyuan. There is no mention of eating horse meat in the records of Xu Da's death. The original text is as follows:
When Xu Da, the Duke of Wei State, died in the Northern Expedition in the fifth year, he immediately ordered him to collect troops along the border and keep them there until the end of the year. At the beginning of the year of Yan Zhi, he summoned the capital back to the capital to mourn for the fifty-fourth year of his death in winter.
It can be seen that Xu Da’s death was not because of horse meat, but because of steamed goose?
3. Xu Da’s death in “history” – died of steamed goose?
Of course not!
Xu Da died of a steamed goose rewarded by Zhu Yuanzhang. After searching on the Internet, all of them were from Wang Wenlu's "Long Xing Ci Ji", and netizens took out the "original text".
Xu Da suffered from gangrene, and the emperor gave him a steamed goose. Goose was the most taboo for gangrene, so he ate it with runny eyes and died.
What original text is this? Isn’t it Zhao Yi’s quote from "Long Xing Ci Ji"!
Let's take a look at "The Legend of Longxing Ci". The author of this book is Wang Wenlu, a sesame official who particularly admired Zhu Yuanzhang. Longxing means Zhu Yuanzhang's fortune, and Ciji means recording his mother's words. This book is a memory of the legendary stories of Emperor Taizu Gao that his mother told him when he was a child. The stories his mother told were told by his grandfather when his mother was a child. His grandfather's name was Lu Yuansheng, and he probably listened to what his fathers said. But 98.76% of netizens are wrong. They think Wang Wenlu is a big fan of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang! This is such an injustice to Wang Wenlu!
It can be seen that their family has been a die-hard fan of Ming Taizu for generations. In the book "Longxing Ci Ji", Zhu Yuanzhang and Wang Wenlu both called him the holy ancestor. Think about it, if he admires Ming Taizu so much, how could he possibly bury Zhu Yuanzhang?
On the occasion of Xu Da's death, Wang Wenlu recorded this:
Wu Ningda was seriously ill, and the Holy Ancestor was fortunate to be the one who came to him. He came to the bedside, asked about it, and said in two words: "I heard that the king Luan came here, and not a single flower was withered. Hundreds of flowers are blooming, and all the heroes and sages are waiting to be used. Do you think of your Lord?" Holding the Holy Ancestor's hand without letting go, the Holy Ancestor said, "You wish me to hold the mountains and rivers tightly!" Da kowtowed on the couch to encourage the Lord to be loyal! Alas! The king and his ministers always get the best of both worlds.
Some people admire Zhu Yuanzhang, and some hate him. This person is Xu Zhenqing. Xu Zhenqing is also known as Xu Zhenqing. He is ugly but more talented. Together with Tang Yin (Tang Bohu), Zhu Yunming, and Wen Zhengming, he is the "Four Talents in Wuzhong" (the four great talents in Jiangnan). Together with Li Mengyang, He Jingming, Bian Gong, and Kang Hai, Wang Jiusi, and Wang Tingxiang together are the first seven sons, and the last seven sons are Li Panlong, Wang Shizhen, Xie Zhen, Zong Chen, Liang Youyu, Xu Zhongxing, and Wu Guolun.
Xu Zhenqing was very talented, but because of his ugly appearance, he was not allowed to enter the Imperial Academy after winning the Jinshi. He must have had opinions about this, and a few years later, he was demoted to Doctor of the Imperial College. Dr. Xu wrote a book called "Jian Sheng Ye Wen".
Duke Xu Wei was seriously ill due to gangrene, so the emperor went to see him and gathered a large number of doctors to treat him. After a long time, he became ill, and the emperor suddenly gave him a meal. The Duke of Wei ate it while the envoy was crying, and secretly ordered the doctors to escape. Not long after, he passed away. Desperate to report to the emperor, the emperor went to the throne carrying paper money and cried, and ordered the doctor to be beheaded. The wife cried loudly and worshiped the emperor. The emperor comforted her and said, "Sister-in-law, don't worry about the future. I will save you." ——Ming Dynasty Xu Zhenqing's "Jian Sheng Ye Wen"
This book is positioned as hearsay from the beginning, and it will definitely add fuel and jealousy, or even make things out of thin air. In this book, he said that when Xu Da suffered from serious back gangrene, Zhu Yuanzhang visited him several times and specially sent imperial doctors to treat him. After a long time, when the illness was a little better, Lao Zhu rewarded him with food. Xu Da ate the food with tears in his eyes and secretly let the doctors run away. It didn't take long for
to be declared dead. After reporting the matter to Zhu Yuanzhang immediately, the emperor was so anxious that he didn't even comb his hair and didn't even wear shoes. He carried paper money and cried all the way. He went to the Xu Mansion and killed all the doctors.Mrs. Xu Da cried and knelt down to worship the emperor. The emperor comforted and said: "Sister-in-law, don't worry, I will be there for everything."
Xu Zhenqing said that Xu Da died after eating Zhu Yuanzhang's food. As for what it was, no one knew, because Zhu Yuanzhang killed everyone and silenced him at that time.
Xu Zhenqing’s words are unreliable. After all, Lao Xu is angry! His anger hurt his health, and this old Xu died at the age of thirty-three.
4. If you have back gangrene, will you definitely die if you eat goose meat?
Although there are foods that are incompatible with each other in life, such as drinking milk but not eating persimmons, there are still very few that are so incompatible with each other that they are fatal. It is a rumor that people with back gangrene will die if they eat goose meat. This is the same as saying that goose meat is poison or has been poisoned. Let’s see what the doctors say about the relationship between back gangrene and geese.
Of course, doctors’ opinions are not uniform. Fu Lanqin, deputy chief physician of Union Medical College Hospital, made it clear that there is no evidence to prove back gangrene, and further stated that eating goose meat in moderation can actually promote the recovery of back gangrene. Of course, there is a prerequisite for patients with back gangrene, that is, they cannot eat spicy food, and they must stop smoking and drinking.
To put it to the extreme, even smoking, drinking and eating spicy food will not kill a patient with back gangrene. Unless you drink alcohol, even the gods can't save you.
Wang Xiaoyan, chief physician at Beijing Tiantang Hospital affiliated to Capital Medical University, said that patients with back gangrene should not eat goose meat, specifically roasted goose, because roasted goose is a inflammatory substance and will aggravate the condition. But he was very cautious and used a possibility, which meant that roasting goose would not necessarily aggravate the condition of patients with back gangrene, let alone be fatal.
In order to further verify the issue of hair, I found that there is controversy about the issue of hair. Wang Yong, chief physician of Henan Provincial People's Hospital, said that the theory of hair growth has certain basis, but its rigor and universality need further verification. The theory of hair growth belongs to traditional Chinese medicine and does not exist in Western medicine.
concluded from this that whether it is steamed goose or roasted goose, it is not harmful to patients with back gangrene, let alone fatal.
5. The death of Xu Da in "Records of Ming Taizu"
In "History", Xu Da died after eating a goose. So how did Xu Da die in history? Zhang Tingyu's "History of the Ming Dynasty" and especially the "Records of Ming Taizu" compiled by the Ming Dynasty officials have detailed records.
In the 16th year, he returned to the town of Peiping. In the seventeenth year, Yida's eldest son Yun Gong took charge of the governor's office of the Zuo Army. Yun Gong later changed his name to Hui Zu. In that year, Taiyin attacked the general. The emperor was worried and issued an edict to return to the court. In the twelfth month, there was an illness. He sent an envoy to call four people to cure him. He also prayed to the gods of the mountains, rivers and cities, saying: "In the past, the world was in chaos. I ordered the general to suppress the army and calm the people. General Xu Da has done a lot of work. Today If you are sick, please do not suffer from illness (chōu). I specially tell God: May I live in peace for many years. I will go with Da in the future, but God will learn from it. At the end of the day, I died in the fifty-fourth year.
1383, Zhu Yuanzhang asked his good brother Xu Da to be stationed in Beijing. In 1384, Xu Da seemed to be in poor condition, and people at that time were superstitious. Zhu Yuanzhang was very worried, so he issued an edict to have his brother Xu Da return to him. In December, Xu Da fell ill. , Brother Tie was ill, and Zhu Yuanzhang sent people four times to seek medical treatment for him in the name of the world. Uneasy, he knelt down and prayed to all the gods, saying, "Once the world was in chaos, I raised troops to calm the people, and General Xu Da made the greatest contribution. Now he is sick." He couldn't be cured no matter what. I, Zhu Yuanzhang, specifically appealed to the gods: I hope he can live a few more years to benefit the people. Our brothers are willing to die on the same year, the same month and the same day, please verify it. In the end, Xu Da died at the age of five Fourteen years old.
Summary
Zhao Yi, who together with Yuan Mei and Zhang Wentao is known as the three major Xingling sects in the Qing Dynasty, refutes the rumors. I don’t know if he is not rigorous in his studies or if he intends to please the Qing Dynasty and suppress the Ming Dynasty, but it is certain. Yes, Xu Da was not killed by Zhu Yuanzhang. We have all wronged Zhu Yuanzhang. Whether it is a matter of Zhao Yi's academic studies or a matter of pleasing people, being able to say that patients with back gangrene will die if they eat goose meat can't help but make people feel dumbfounded. This is too It doesn’t conform to common sense.
