Is there really such a thing as Zhu Yuanzhang's "burning down the Qing palace building" in history?

There is no historical record of Zhu Yuanzhang burning down the Qing Palace, and the founding fathers of the Ming Dynasty in history were not killed by fire. This is just a folk legend, which is the product of the Qing Dynasty's denigration of Zhu Yuanzhang. This story has been told in the novel Daming Yinglie and Ming Chong Qing Lv. In Song Lian's Zhang Zhongchuan, it is recorded that Zhu Yuanzhang built a building in Nanjing called Zhongyi Building, where Zhu Yuanzhang often discussed state affairs with counselors and military commanders around him. The story of the Qing Palace Building should be based on this.

The story of burning down the Qing palace building is that Zhu Yuanzhang was originally a farmer, who wanted to eat and leave home, and finally chose to join the army. In the Rocky Mountain, he became brothers with Wu, Hu Dahai, Tanghe, Deng Yu and Chang Yuchun, and embarked on the road of uprising. Later, he established the Ming Dynasty with the help of Ji Shen strategist Liu Bowen.

When he became emperor, Zhu Yuanzhang was bent on running the country well. In order to stabilize the country, he first made Zhu Biao a prince, and then opened the imperial examination to fight corruption. The fate is impermanent, and Zhu Biao died of a serious illness. In order to avoid civil strife, Zhu Yuanzhang named his grandson Zhu Yunwen as the Prince.

As mentioned earlier, Zhu Yuanzhang has several sworn brothers. After Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor, they still called Zhu Yuanzhang the fourth son and showed no respect for the emperor. Zhu Yuanzhang's rule can also deter them, but his grandson is still young, because these people will not embarrass Zhu Yunwen. Unlike Zhu Biao, Zhu Yunwen has no prestige in the army. In order to save Daming Mountain, Zhu Yuanzhang knew that he would solve these problems for his grandson in his lifetime.

So, one afternoon, Zhu Yuanzhang sent a message saying that he missed farming together and wanted to drink and eat meat with his brothers. The location is the Qing Palace Building. Liu Bowen understood that this was Zhu Yuanzhang's attack on everyone. Liu Bowen wanted to leave a general to protect the safety of the Ming Dynasty. He chose Xu Da and told Xu Da that he must stay with the emperor at the banquet. Xu Da really saved his life.
