Why is the fate of the same character different?

1. According to folklore, when Zhu Yuanzhang was emperor, he was afraid that people with the same birthday would rob him of the throne and killed all those who had the same eight characters as him. Among the victims, there was a beekeeper, and the local people called him the queen bee. Zhu Yuanzhang mistakenly thought he was the queen bee, so he killed him. In fact, his life is as rich as Zhu Yuanzhang's, but his future achievements are different because of the different environment and the different nobles he met.
