In the first month of 380 AD, Tu Jie and Hu, officials of Zhongshu Province, rebelled against each other. Zhu Yuanzhang executed Hu and Tu Jiehe on charges of perverting the law and defaming politics. In order to eliminate the rebel party, more than 30,000 people were killed by implication.

In 1385, Xu Da had a tumor on his back, and he could not go to the court for several days. Zhu Yuanzhang sent eunuchs to steam the geese. Xu Da knew that he couldn't eat steamed goose because he was sick. When he saw what the emperor gave him, he knew it was for his life, so he ate it with tears and died a few days later.

After joining Zhu Yuanzhang, he came under the command of his own army. After that, Chen Li, who aided Anfeng, fought the decisive battle at Poyang Lake, and surrendered to Wu Chan
The reason why Zhu Yuanzhang killed the hero was actually very simple. No matter who established the crown prince Zhu Biao first or the emperor his grandson Zhu Yun established later, they were both kind and soft, not as insidious and tough as him. Of course, Zhu Yuanzhang did not leave behind a group of veterans with outstanding military exploits after his death. So before he succeeded to the throne, he tried every means to kill those veterans to pave the way for future generations. Once, Prince Zhu Biao admonished: Your Majesty killed too many people for fear of hurting others. Zhu Yuanzhang was silent for a long time after hearing this. The next day, Zhu Yuanzhang called the prince to the forum outside the river, threw a thorn on the ground, and ordered the prince to pick it up. Faced with the prickly staff, the prince felt very embarrassed. Zhu Yuanzhang said: You are afraid of thorns and dare not take them. Wouldn't it be better if I pulled it out for you and gave it to you? Zhu Yuanzhang's words revealed the purpose of killing a large number of heroes.
