After the world settled down, Liu Bowen still won the favor of Zhu Yuanzhang and was named "Sincerity". One day, Liu Bowen had something to leave, so he rushed to the palace to see the emperor. At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was eating baked wheat cakes and decided to test him. He covered the biscuit with a bowl and said to Liu Bowen, "Ai Qing is a genius in the world. Can you find out what's under the bowl? "
Liu Bowen smiled and then replied, "Half like the sun, half like the moon. It was bitten by a golden dragon. If I am not mistaken, there is a sesame seed cake under the bowl. " On the surface, Zhu Yuanzhang was full of praise for Liu Bowen, but in his heart, he felt inexplicable fear. As time went on, Zhu Yuanzhang's fear not only did not weaken, but became stronger and stronger. However, he thought that Liu Bowen was a hero of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and he still had use value, so he was not moved.
In A.D. 1375, Liu Bowen caught a cold and returned to his hometown under the pretext of resigning. As soon as he returned to his hometown, Zhu Yuanzhang sent Hu to Liu Bowen's house with the physician, and asked the physician to prescribe some soup for him. Surprisingly, the common cold got worse and worse, and Liu Bowen died soon. Many people suspect that Liu Bowen's death is not that simple, and it is probably related to Zhu Yuanzhang, but this is just speculation.
Liu Bowen found himself a treasure trove of geomantic omen before he died, and asked his family to put a copy of Daming Law in his coffin. Soon after, Zhu Yuanzhang heard that Liu Bowen had found himself a "dragon cave" and was very scared. He knew that Liu Bowen had this ability. If he did, Jiangshan might not belong to Zhujiajian. So he personally took people to his hometown in Liu Bowen and asked soldiers to dig out his coffin, destroying the so-called dragon cave.
When Liu Bowen's coffin was opened, the soldiers found the book Daming Law and took it to Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang. Zhu Yuanzhang was ashamed when he saw the Daming Law, because he personally ordered the compilation of the Daming Law, and there was a clause about punishing grave robbers, that is, "whoever opens the coffin and sees the body will die." Zhu Yuanzhang thought that he was no different from those grave robbers in digging Liu Bowen cemetery, and he could not abide by Daming Law himself. How can he convince people all over the world?
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang ordered Liu Bowen to be reburied and took special care of his family. After Zhu Yuanzhang, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, returned to the palace, he warned the civil and military officials in the Qing Dynasty that no one was allowed to criticize Liu Bowen in the future, otherwise hell to pay. Thus, Liu Bowen had calculated the cemetery that Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to dig, and deliberately put Daming Law in the coffin, thus preserving the cemetery.
