Zhu Yuanzhang set fire to celebrate the building. Why did he do such a thing?

Zhu Yuanzhang set fire to the Qing Palace Building, which originated from the ballad "Da Ming Chong" written by Qing light cavalry, and was later adapted into a masterpiece by Jin Opera, named Qing Palace Building, and spread among the people. The Qing Palace Building is a tower in Nanjing. "Burning the Qing Palace Building" tells the story of Zhu Yuanzhang's plan to wipe out all the heroes who built the country for himself: in the name of the Qing Palace, he invited the founding heroes to the Qing Palace Building for drinking and celebrating, and then buried them all in the sea of fire with gunpowder and dry wood.

In fact, there is no such thing as Zhu Yuanzhang burning down the Qing Palace building in real history. Although Zhu Yuanzhang became emperor, he used many despicable means to wipe out those who made great contributions to himself and posed potential threats to himself one by one. However, the burning of the Qing palace building is only a literary creation, and there is no historical fact. None of Zhu Yuanzhang's founding heroes died in the so-called "Qing Palace Building". They either died of old age or died in the battlefield and died in a deep prison.

Then, why is the story of Zhu Yuanzhang burning down the Qing Palace building widely circulated among the people? This is related to Zhu Yuanzhang's historical evaluation and orientation.

Before becoming emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang was a measured leader who was good at discovering and using talents. However, when he became emperor, power made him bloated and suspicious. In Zhu Yuanzhang's mind, those outstanding heroes are no longer his favorite generals, but have become a stumbling block that threatens his imperial power. Burning the Qing palace building is actually alluding to Zhu Yuanzhang's killing heroes.

1380, Zhu Yuanzhang attacked his prime minister for the first time, and Hu was reported to be plotting rebellion. Zhu Yuanzhang quickly wiped out Hu's nine families on this charge. Affected by the Hu case, Li Shanchang, Zhu Yuanzhang's most trusted general, was also convicted, and all his family and slaves were killed. For a time, the heroes who laid the foundation for Zhu Yuanzhang were in danger, some retired and some pretended to be sick. 1893, Zhu Yuanzhang killed Sifang again, and made a big purge of the power class on the grounds of sapphire rebellion, the founding hero. This time, Zhu Yuanzhang killed more than ten thousand people.

Hu and aquamarine turned against each other and became enemies, which is called "Hulan Party Case" in history. From then on, the founding hero of the Ming Dynasty was almost exterminated by Zhu Yuanzhang, and the rule of Zhu Yuanzhang and his descendants in North Korea was not threatened. In the Qing Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang burned the Qinglou to write ballads, in fact, in order to allude to Zhu Yuanzhang's brutal rule of killing heroes.
