Li Yun, who traveled through time and became a commoner next to Zhu Yuanzhang, has an unspeakable secret: he knows all the glory of the Ming Dynasty and remembers every scar of it.
Chang Yuchun's early death, Zhu Biao's early death, Empress Ma's tears, Emperor Hongwu's endless loneliness in his later years... And those that eventually dragged the empire into a rigid household registration, military household and vassal system.
But he doesn't talk about secrets, he just acts as a quiet "storyteller".
When Zhu Yuanzhang was worried about enfeoffment, he told an old story about "the Eight Kings of Jin Dynasty were in chaos and clans were killing each other"; when the court was discussing laws, he told an allusion about "the Song Dynasty's good care of scholars turned out to be the disadvantage of redundant officials".
His story is always just a story. The civil and military officials of the entire dynasty only regarded him as knowledgeable and knowledgeable, but Zhu Yuanzhang, who was sitting on the dragon throne, always thought about it late at night, and then quietly wrote the truth of a certain story into the footnotes of "Da Ming Law".
And his greatest wish was for his old friend Zhu Yuanzhang, when he was gray-haired, to put down his heavy burdens and, as an ordinary old farmer, hold his old wife's hand and truly take a look at the peaceful world they created together.
