The minister didn't change his old clothes. Zhu Yuanzhang claimed to be an honest official, but Liu Bowen said, "Why can't this person stay?" ?

"The Travels of the Old Disabled" wrote that "corrupt officials hate it and everyone can see it; Honest officials are particularly hateful, and many people don't know it. Corrupt officials know that they are ill and dare not commit crimes openly. Honest officials think they don't want money. Why not? If you are willful for your own use, you will kill people if you are small, and you will be wrong if you are big. " Everyone hates corrupt officials, but they don't know that honest officials are more hateful. Because corrupt officials know that they are guilty, they can only do evil in secret. Honest officials are different. They think that they can cover up all their shortcomings without taking bribes. If they put themselves on the moral high ground and act recklessly, they may mistake the country and the people.

The most typical example is the Lindong Party in the late Ming Dynasty, which claimed to be patriotic saints at ordinary times, but ran faster than one in times of crisis. Chongzhen mistakenly believed this group of people who paid lip service, but he was not the only one who made this mistake, and his ancestor Zhu Yuanzhang. At the beginning of Zhu Yuanzhang's uprising, the Yuan Dynasty sent Zhang Chang, a minister of the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, to woo him. As a result, the plan failed to keep up with the changes, and the Yuan Army in the Central Plains battlefield was losing ground. Zhu Yuanzhang took Zhang Chang in out of his love for talents.

Because of his "wisdom and sensitivity, he is familiar with the allusions of the previous generation", Zhang Chang was awarded the qualification to participate in political affairs and major in Daming Law. According to historical records, Zhu Yuanzhang relied heavily on him and said, "Where there are many hands in the national system, governance is like a flow and there is no stagnation." However, Zhang Chang has a quirk. His clothes are worn out, but he never changes them. Zhu Yuanzhang also refused to accept gold, silver, silks and satins, which made Zhu Yuanzhang praise him as "the head of an upright official" and trust him more. But Liu Bowen said "winner dies" and warned Zhu Yuanzhang not to stay.

At first, Zhu Yuanzhang thought that Liu Bowen was jealous of Zhang Chang's favor, but when yang xian, the head of the Royal Guards, handed him a letter with the words "Being in the South of the Yangtze River and Thinking in the North", he was surprised and angry. Liu Bowen took advantage of the situation and said, "Advise us to attach importance to the criminal law, break the state capital, learn more skills, and lose the hearts of the people." Zhu Yuanzhang seems to have lost his mind "for Zhao Gao", while Liu Bowen is helpless and "as honest as a saint".

He immediately ordered the arrest of Zhang Chang and arraigned him overnight. Zhang Chang said to him, "I still want to go home. If I go back to Yuan, I will still be rich." Zhu Yuanzhang was deeply hit. Isn't it the best proof of Philip Burkart that Zhang Chang doesn't change his rags? He was completely disappointed in Zhang Chang. "He insisted on rebellion, unforgivable", so he killed him.

The clever Zhu Yuanzhang didn't eat this kind of yabakui, and he was kept in the dark and didn't know it. If it weren't for Liu Bowen's warning, the consequences would be unimaginable.
