The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang made the names of his descendants so complicated was because he hoped that the Ming Empire he founded could be passed down from generation to generation, and at the same time, he also showed off his literary talents so that future generations would always remember his expectations.
Show that the royal family is different and remove the dirt from the old Zhu family
Zhu Yuanzhang’s original name is Zhu Chongba. Listening to this name, it should be similar to names such as "Goudan" and "Gou Sheng" . Don't think that such a name is chosen to ward off evil spirits. This is a famous name. So when Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, he wanted to put some effort into the names of his descendants, so that they could no longer be so crude!
Zhu Yuanzhang had 26 sons and was also very productive! They are Zhu Biao, Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di, Zhu Xi, Zhu Zhen, Zhu Xi, Zhu Zi, Zhu Qi, Zhu Tan, Zhu Chun, Zhu Bai, Zhu Gui, Zhu Xi, Zhu Zhi, Zhu Xi, Zhu Quan, Zhu Lun, Zhu Su, Zhu Song, Zhu Mo, Zhu Ying, Zhu Huan, Zhu Dong, Zhu Muyi, Zhu Nan, twenty-six sons.
Just like Lao Guo named his apprentice, it is written in wood. Below are the characters for fire, such as blazing, burning, burning, etc.
Then there are the characters for earth, and then for water. Our ancestors restricted the radicals. In addition, we had to consider wealth and status, so the characters were limited, so many inexplicable characters were created.
Lao Zhu is so arrogant, it’s hard for these descendants.
I hope that the Ming Dynasty will be passed on forever
Being from the lowest level, I have tasted all the hardships in the world, and I know how hard it is to get the country I have, and I also want to pass on the throne to future generations. , so he made a fuss about the names of future generations. He searched through ancient historical books, found many celebrities and great scholars, determined the metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and took turns to choose names. Therefore, the names of future generations are a bit strange, and many words are made up. Of course It’s hard to recognize!
The ideal is very full, but the reality is very skinny. Zhu Yuanzhang's idea is very beautiful. The emperors of the Ming Dynasty were the most bizarre among the orthodox dynasties in history. Some were obsessed with promoting weaving, some regarded the emperor as a second career, some liked mature women, and some did not go to court for 20 or 30 years. , there is a carpenter who finally managed to find normalcy, but he also brought the country to death.
General Comment
The name is just a code name, this is a beautiful vision of Zhu Yuanzhang. "The rolling Yangtze River flows eastward, and the waves wash away all the heroes." "Talented people emerge from generation to generation, and new generations replace old ones." No one can stop the changing times of metabolism. No matter how rich you are for only three generations, only by paying attention to the cultivation of future generations can you grasp the future and win hope!
