651 Ming ancestral mausoleum
Chu Yu was listening with relish, eager to know what was going on, but Wang Yang suddenly interrupted, which provoked her to give Wang Yang a blank look.
Wang Yang grinned and scratched Chu Yu's nose, "Having said so much, let me drink slowly." ”
"Nasty!" Chu Yujiao sneered, and couldn't help but coquettishly say: "Hurry up and say it, what did Zhu Chuyi do in the end?" ”
"Your water, sir."
At this time, the flight attendant also sent the water that Wang Yang wanted.
"Thank you."
After taking the water and drinking it, Wang Yang continued to tell the story that Zhu Yuanzhang had hyped up at the beginning.
It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang's grandfather, that is, Zhu Chuyi, the ancestor of Ming Xi, immediately believed the words of the two feng shui gentlemen, one old and one young, who met nine days ago, after discovering that the dead wood branches inserted in the soil pit had sprouted and sprouted leaves.
If you are buried here, you will come out of heaven!
This temptation made Zhu Chu's heart itch, and he couldn't help but move the idea of taking it for himself.
If this pit is really so effective, if he wants to put his grave here, then he has to fool the old man and the young man.
From the mouths of the old and the young, they didn't seem to be very sure that this pit really had such a good effect, otherwise, they would not have to insert a dead branch and wait ten days to verify it.
After thinking about it for a long time, Zhu Chuyi came up with a trick of dropping the bag.
He went and plucked the dead branch that had sprouted leaves, and found a similar branch nearby and put it back in its place.
After doing all this, he erased all traces of his own visit, and then hid aside. Sneak into this pit.
The sky is getting brighter. The rooster crows three times. The two feng shui gentlemen, one old and one young, really came at dawn when the rooster crowed.
Zhu Chuyi kept staring here, but found that he hadn't noticed where these two people came from, so he became more and more uneasy in his heart.
Seeing that after the two people came over, they didn't seem to notice him, and Zhu Chuyi let go of his worries a little.
"Haha, you see, this dead wood is still dead wood. There are no sprouts and leaves at all, you lie to me! ”
Seeing that there was no change in the dead wood in the pit, the little feng shui gentleman suddenly clapped his hands and shouted loudly.
The old feng shui gentleman looked very surprised, stared at the dead wood branches that were dropped by Zhu Chuyi for a long time, and didn't say a word.
"Master, what else to look at, you must have chosen the wrong one."
Mr. Xiao Feng Shui saw that the old Mr. Feng Shui was still puzzled, and he had long lost interest in this dirt pit, in his opinion. This time, I'm afraid it was his master who looked away.
The old feng shui gentleman was suspicious, but still did not say a word. At the same time, he glanced to the side, and what he saw at that glance was the corner where Zhu Chuyi was hiding.
Zhu Chuyi, who had been hiding next to him, looked at the scene in front of him, his palms were sweating, and he raised his throat in one breath, he thought that he was discovered, and he was thinking about how to deal with it, who knew that after the old feng shui gentleman took back this look, he didn't pull him out, but clicked the dirt pit in front of him, and said loudly again.
"If you want to be blessed and buried here after death, the family will inevitably come out of the Son of Heaven."
After saying this, the old feng shui master led the little feng shui master away.
When the two of them were far away, Zhu Chuyi came out of the hiding place.
From this day on, Zhu Chuyi has never seen the two feng shui gentlemen, one old and one young. Then, in the fourth year of Yuan Taiding, that is, in 1372 AD, Zhu Chuyi died.
According to Zhu Chuyi's will, the Zhu family buried Zhu Chuyi in the pit he had already chosen.
It is also strange to say that when the descendants of the Zhu family buried Zhu Chuyi in this soil pit, without waiting for everyone to seal the soil and bury it, the pit suddenly collapsed and buried itself into a grave, which surprised everyone at that time.
Before Zhu Chuyi died, he told his son's family about this matter, but when Zhu Chuyi was buried, the Zhu family did not get better, but became more and more difficult, and later, at the end of this year, the Zhu family had to move to the wood field of Xuyi County in the east of Zhongli.
The situation of the Zhu family has not gotten better, and this reality makes everyone in the Zhu family take what Zhu Chuyi said seriously.
One day after the Zhu family settled in the wooden field in Xuyi County, Zhu Yuanzhang's mother dreamed that she met a very strange person, who had a strange beard, wore a high yellow crown on his head, and wore a vermilion robe, gave her a white pill, and told her to eat the pill.
Zhu Yuanzhang's mother saw that the pill was shining and exuding an attractive aroma, so she swallowed it in a daze.
When she woke up the next day, Zhu Yuanzhang's mother forgot about the dream, but not long after that, she was found to be pregnant.
In the second year, in September of the first year of Tianli of the Yuan Dynasty (that is, 1328 AD), a boy was born, and this boy was Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang's birth date happened to be only one year before the burial of his grandfather Zhu Chuyi......
When Zhu Yuanzhang heard this story from Zhu Gui's mouth, he immediately believed it and attributed his ability to win the world to his grandfather who recognized the treasure of feng shui and won the mercy of God.
Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang first gave Zhu Guitian a large number of mansion banknotes, ingots, gold belts, clothes and other things, but also specially granted him an ancestral mausoleum to enshrine the four official positions, and promised his descendants the hereditary management of the office.
At the same time, Zhu Yuanzhang hyped up this story, and according to the clues provided by Zhu Gui, he ordered the then crown prince to return to Sihong County to build a mausoleum, and regarded this place as an ancestral mausoleum.
This is the story of Zhu Yuanzhang's recognition of his ancestors' graves, and because of this story, Zhu Yuanzhang also specially found many feng shui gentlemen to perfect this story, confirming the fact that his monarchy was bestowed by God, and consolidating his rule among the people.
After listening to the story told by Wang Yang, Chu Yu saw that he was very disdainful of this story, so he couldn't help but be curious, and asked, "What's wrong with Wang Yang, isn't this story true?" ”
Wang Yang shook his head, and then said: "It has been hundreds of years since Zhu Yuanzhang founded the Ming Dynasty, and there is no need to confirm whether this story is really true, but the ancestral tomb he identified is not a treasure of feng shui at all in the eyes of a real feng shui master. ”
"What do you mean by that?" Chu Yu couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked.
"The feng shui masters of later generations had mixed opinions about the ancestral tomb selected by Zhu Yuanzhang at that time, and that location, to the east of it, was Hongze Lake; To the north is the Huai River, which is located at the mouth of the Huai River into Hongze Lake. Therefore, whenever the Huai River floods, the ancestral tomb will be submerged in an ocean, how can this be regarded as a treasure of feng shui. ”
Wang Yang sighed and continued: "It is precisely because of this that the feng shui physiognomist who helped Zhu Yuanzhang make up this story at that time was regarded as a liar. ”
Speaking of this, Wang Yang did not continue.
However, behind his seat, Park In-hye, who had been listening secretly, couldn't help but glance at Jack, who had previously proved what he said, citing the story of Zhu Yuanzhang's recognition of his ancestors' graves.
"Is the feng shui really that bad there?" Chu Yu didn't notice that Park In-hye had been eavesdropping behind him, but he couldn't believe it, even if those feng shui gentlemen dared to talk nonsense, they wouldn't really recommend a particularly bad place to Zhu Yuanzhang, right?
"It's not just bad, it can be described as a poor mountain and bad water." Wang Yang sighed, and then said: "The Ming Ancestral Mausoleum is close to Hongze Lake, the east and west are full of water, and the terrain is extremely low-lying, and it has the notoriety of 'nine gangs and eighteen depressions'. In the past, if you went on a rainy day, the mud would stick your shoes off, and there would be no way to walk. Not only is it not like a treasure land of feng shui, but even residents find it very inconvenient to travel, the land is poor and sparsely populated, and it is completely a place where birds don't poop. From time to time, families move out. Back then, Zhu Wusi took his wife and Chen family to Fengyang Zhong to leave his hometown to make a living, which was the reason. ”
"According to the definition of ancient Kanyushu, the topography and topography of a piece of feng shui treasure land, there is a bright hall in front of the cave, and it depends on the three odds and four responses. The three odds are mountains, water, and cases; Front, back, left, right, for the four responses; There is sand protection on the left and right, the so-called 'sand' is the stuff of the hill soil and stone; there must be Luocheng, Luocheng is composed of mountains or water, and surrounds each other; there is a mountain in the distance, and there is a case mountain nearby. Taking the mountain as Luocheng, it is better to form four postures of the left green dragon, the right white tiger, the front Vermilion Bird, and the rear Xuanwu; If there are no mountains around, a horse and a flat river, then borrow the water potential to become a dragon (water dragon), surrounded by Zeguo. ”
"The Ming Ancestral Mausoleum is located in northern Jiangsu, which is basically a plain landform. Except for a water country around, there is not much magic to speak of. Therefore, when the mausoleum was built, a large-scale geographical transformation was carried out, the depression was filled, the repair was insufficient, the ground was dug into a river, the soil was piled up for the mountain, and the landscape of feng shui elements such as sand, water, near case, and Mingtang was artificially formed, which formed a standard feng shui treasure land. ”
"But the so-called feng shui of the Ming ancestral tomb is man-made after all, and it is inevitable that it has been affected by the natural environment, especially in the late Ming Dynasty, it has been plagued by floods."
After a pause, Wang Yang continued: "During the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, probably the nineteenth year of Kangxi, the Ming Ancestral Mausoleum fell directly into Hongze Lake and was completely submerged. However, there is a way that a person has ascended to heaven, since there is an Emperor Zhu here, he is naturally spiritual, Zhu Yuanzhang insisted that this is a treasure land, who dares to deny it? The feng shui master at that time was also very smart. Knowing that this place is not good, he used the reason that the treasure and spirituality of this place were provided to Zhu Yuanzhang to reach the Tianting Throne and the Emperor as a cover, and fought with the emperor. ”
"I see...... Chu Yu couldn't help but nodded, and finally understood the truth.
"I also worked hard for those ancients," Wang Yang smiled, and then said: "During the Chongzhen period of the Ming Dynasty, the ancestral tomb suffered many disasters, and the court's ceremonial squire, that is, a person named Jiang De, in order to boast about the feng shui of the ancestral tomb, also wrote a special article called "Fengsi Ji".
