The Feng Shui story of the ancestral tombs Part 3: The Feng Shui legend of Zhu Yuanzhang’s famous tomb
| Introduction: Zhu Yuanzhang is the founding emperor of the Ming Dynasty. He himself carries a certain mysterious legendary color. The feng shui at the time of his birth has a great relationship with his subsequent development. So, what Feng Shui stories happened to him? Let’s take a look together. Zhu Yuanzhang made his fortune by relying on his ancestral tombs. After Zhu Yuanzhang proclaimed himself emperor in Yingtian (Nanjing) in 1368 AD, the first thing he thought of was to relocate the tombs of his parents and brother and sister-in-law, bury them solemnly in magnificent coffins, and sent Liu Ji, who was well versed in feng shui, to his hometown of Fengyang, Anhui to investigate. Liu Ji replied that the spiritual energy of the mountains and rivers should not be moved. If it was moved, the feng shui would no longer work and the Zhu family's dragon vein would be broken. The superstitious Zhu Yuanzhang gave up the idea of reburial and chose to build a large imperial mausoleum on the original site. There is also a folk legend that Zhu Yuanzhang buried his father in a Feng Shui treasure land. At that time, Zhu's father's "corpse sank into the crack of the ground", so the grave was built on the flat ground. After the rain, the sky cleared up. Zhu Yuanzhang hurriedly ran out of the temple where he had taken shelter from the rain. When he arrived at the place, he saw that his father's body was gone. Feeling very confused, he lay on the pole used to carry the body, stretched out his limbs, looked up to the sky and sighed, waiting for his second brother to come back to discuss what to do. An old monk happened to pass by and was surprised: the carrying pole and Zhu Yuanzhang's body formed a "sky". After a while, Zhu Yuanzhang turned sideways again, which was even more amazing, and he became a "zi" again. When the "Son of Heaven" appears in the world, this person must be noble. As the old monk said, Zhu Yuanzhang later became the emperor of the Ming Dynasty. How could such a good thing exist in the world? Zhu Yuanzhang was able to establish the Ming Dynasty by fighting against the Mongols, Zhang Shicheng, Chen Youliang and others, and he "gained the throne on horseback." However, some people have always believed that Zhu Yuanzhang's ancestral tomb was buried in a Feng Shui treasure land. When Li Zicheng's rebel army attacked Fengyang, Anhui, they destroyed the Zhu family's ancestral tomb in a mess, ruining its Feng Shui, which was called "breaking the dragon vein." |
