"Push Back Map" is a strange book in our history, and Qi is strange in this book for future generations has a foreshadowing effect, this is one of the most mysterious forces in people's hearts in the past and the present, can predict the future of such a skill, just listen to it feels very remarkable, and "Push Back Map" is rumored to have been written in the early Tang Dynasty, when Tang Taizong Li Shimin in order to calculate the national fortunes of the Tang Dynasty, specially found Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, two of the more famous Taoists at that time, let them write a book dedicated to calculating the fortunes of the country.
In this way, after the meticulous compilation of Yuan Tiangang and Li Chunfeng, finally wrote this collection of easy to learn, astronomy, poetry, riddles, pictures as one of the ancient wonders, in the book, not only for the late Tang Dynasty national fortunes made a bold prediction, but also for the direction of the country after the Tang Dynasty and some of the major events that will happen in the future made a more accurate description, however, it is said that the book was not written, but in the part of the writing, was interrupted, rumors are because some of the reasons why the opportunity can not be too much leak, as for the true and false, We don't know.
And today we will take a look at the speculation of some things that happened at the end of the Qing Dynasty in the "Push back map", we take the Boxer Rebellion that occurred at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the later westward escape of Empress Dowager Cixi as an example, to see if there is any prophecy about this matter in the "Push Back Map".
In the thirty-sixth image of the Pushback Diagram, we see a foreshadowing of this matter, the original text of which is as follows:
Proverbs
Slim woman bare-handed enemies
There is no good or bad light
Ode to that
Double fist spinning
There is no peace in the sea
Mother and child are in no particular order
Look west to Chang'an into the pilgrimage
From the content of this text, we can very clearly associate with the Boxer Rebellion and Empress Dowager Cixi, because the "bare hand" in it is a fist, and the Boxers are also called Boxers, and the "slim woman" in it should refer to the red light in the Boxer Rebellion, because the red light is basically composed of young women in this organization.
And the latter sentence "regardless of blessings and misfortunes, the lights cover the sun" should be said to be Empress Dowager Cixi, at that time Cixi did think that relying on the Boxers could deal with some of the ambitions of foreigners, feeling that the Boxers should be an opportunity for the Qing Dynasty, but in fact, the Boxers directly led to the invasion of the later Eight-Nation Alliance, which is not a blessing or misfortune?
And the next sentence "double fist rotation Qiankun" its general meaning should be to say that the Boxer Rebellion in the Great Qing Dynasty can be regarded as a big movement, it seems to be a very powerful look, and then the next sentence is "there is no rui in the sea", its original intention should be to say that there is no wind and no waves at sea, and thinking of the later invasion of the Eight-Power Alliance, this sentence seems to say that this is not without reason, the Boxer Rebellion is the cause of this matter.
And the latter sentence "mother and son do not distinguish between the order" should be said to be Guangxu and Cixi, although they are not biological mother and son, but Guangxu also called Cixi "pro father", regardless of the order naturally refers to the same meaning, "looking west to Chang'an into the haul" meaning should be related to Empress Dowager Cixi fleeing west, because Cixi did go west, directly ran to Xi'an, and this place in Xi'an was called Chang'an in ancient times!
In this way, a decision that Empress Dowager Cixi was anxious about at that time, in fact, there was already a foreshadowing in the "Push back map" written as early as the Tang Dynasty, and people had to lament the magic of this book, if Cixi in that period knew the meaning of this book, I don't know if it would rewrite history? In modern times, as an ancient Taoist book, "Push back map" also has very high research value, and now the "push back map" has derived at least five editions, which are: the painted Ming manuscript, which is now placed on the opposite bank; the Ming codex without a map is also placed on the opposite bank; the Early Qing Dynasty Pan's BaxiLou banknote, the place of existence is unknown; the late Qing Dynasty lithograph, now placed in Chicago in the United States; the popular version (that is, the Jin Shengsi annotated version), this book is said to have been in the Yuanmingyuan before, and later because of the ignition flow, the extant place is unknown.
