Introduction: Ancient society emphasized feudal ethics. Simply put, it is: "monarch, monarch, minister, father, son." Servants should be loyal to the monarch, and sons should obey their fathers. No one should betray the monarch or disobey his father. Of course, this is easier said than done, so if a person really becomes a loyal minister and dutiful son, he will be respected by many people and even recorded in the history books as a model, thus leaving his name in history. There was such a loyal minister at the end of Yuan Dynasty. His name is Cai Ziying. According to historical records, Cai Ziying was born in Yongning (Yongning County, Yinchuan City, Ningxia) and lived in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty. Cai Ziying was studious and talented since childhood. During the Yuan Dynasty to Mindfulness, she entered high school as a scholar, and thus entered the official career. At that time, Chahan Timur, a famous Yuan Dynasty soldier, was guarding Henan. Chahan Timur fought bravely and was invincible. Even Zhu Yuanzhang was afraid of him. ""Chahan Timur was also feared by Ming Taizu. " ? At that time, there were rebels everywhere in the Yuan Dynasty. As a great general, Chahan Timur shoulders the heavy responsibility of pacifying chaos and faces busy official duties. In order to handle official business better, Chahan Timur recruited talents from all over the world to be his aides. It is in this context that Cai Ziying was hired as an adjutant by Chahantimur and became a shogunate to join the army. Cai Ziying was resourceful, lived up to expectations, tried his best to give advice to Chahan Timur, and was highly valued by Chahan Timur. In order to praise Cai Ziying, Chahan Timur specially recommended Cai Ziying to the court to participate in politics in Henan Province. Cai Ziying was greatly moved by this and determined to repay Chahan Timur's kindness in meeting him. Unfortunately, nature tricked people, and soon Chahan Timur was killed. The aggrieved Cai Ziying continued to follow Chahantimir's adopted son, Wang Baobao, to fight in the south and north. Although Wang Baobao was brave and invincible, the Yuan Dynasty was defeated and finally overthrown by Zhu Yuanzhang. Yuan Shundi fled to the north and the Yuan Dynasty perished. ? After the demise of the Yuan Dynasty, Cai Ziying was separated from Wang Baobao's army. He refused to surrender to the Ming Dynasty, fled to Guanzhong alone and lived in seclusion in Zhong Nanshan, intending to find opportunities to take refuge in Wang Baobao. Zhu Yuanzhang had long heard of Cai Ziying's name, and knew that he was Chahantimur's right-hand man and a resourceful scholar, who could use it for himself and work for Daming. So Zhu Yuanzhang ordered people to draw shadows and figures, and people took Cai Ziying's portrait and looked for Cai Ziying. Although Cai Ziying lived in seclusion in the mountains, she was finally hunted down. The Ming army of Cai Ziying was captured alive, Cai Zi Ying was handcuffed and escorted to Nanking. Cai Ziying found an opportunity to escape halfway, and then went to work as a coolie anonymously. Unfortunately, he was later captured by the Ming army and brought to Nanjing. When a group of people passed by Luoyang, Tang He, a famous player in Luoyang at that time, heard about Cai Ziying's reputation and wanted to meet Cai Ziying. Tanghe is Zhu Yuanzhang's youngest son, a general and an open believer. He thought Cai Ziying would be very polite when he saw himself. ? However, although Cai Ziying is a prisoner, she is very proud. He just bowed to Tang River, not kneeling. Qin Bing of Tanghe forced Cai Ziying to kneel, and Cai Ziying would rather die than surrender. Tanghe was furious and wanted to kill Cai Ziying, but he was afraid that Zhu Yuanzhang would blame him, so he set fire to Cai Ziying's long beard. Cai Ziying was unmoved by the furious Tang River. So Cai Ziying was sent to Zhu Yuanzhang. It took seven years from Zhu Yuanzhang's arrest of Cai Ziying to Cai Ziying's escort to Nanjing, which shows that Zhu Yuanzhang valued Cai Ziying. Zhu Yuanzhang has always admired Cai Ziying's talent. After hearing that he refused to bow to Tanghe, he appreciated Cai Ziying's backbone even more. Therefore, as soon as Zhu Yuanzhang saw Cai Ziying, he immediately ordered people to take off Cai Ziying's shackles and held a welcome banquet for Cai Ziying very politely. He also said on the spot that he would seal Cai Ziying's office. Facing Zhu Yuanzhang's hospitality, Cai Ziying was unmoved. The next day, he wrote a letter to Zhu Yuanzhang, which read: "Your Majesty, you are wise and SHEN WOO, united and powerful, and established Daming. I'm just a national subjugation, insignificant, your majesty, you are the most respected, but you see my special respect. I deeply feel that your majesty's kindness is mighty, and your majesty's kindness is hard to repay. However, I was a courtier of the Yuan Dynasty, and I worked as an assistant for Chahan Timur and Wang Baobao for fifteen years. They value me very much and treat me as a national, but I don't expect to repay them. Now that our country is in ruins and has become a prisoner of national subjugation, how can we serve your majesty's new dynasty? Please understand my difficulty and don't make me an official. " ? After reading it, Zhu Yuanzhang was deeply touched: "Cai Ziying is really a loyal minister!" "Cai Ziying is more important, but I still forced Cai Ziying to be an official who does not do it. Soon after, Cai Ziying burst into tears in the middle of the night. When someone asked him why he was crying, Cai Ziying replied, "I miss my old monarch (referring to Yuan Shundi)". This matter soon spread to Zhu Yuanzhang, who knew that Cai Ziying was determined to serve the Yuan Dynasty and would rather die than use it for himself. Zhu Yuanzhang was not angry at Cai Ziying's uncooperative behavior. Instead, he ordered Cai Ziying to be sent to Helin, and asked Cai Ziying to find his old masters Wang Baobao and Yuan Zhaozong.
