Speaking of xiangshu, everyone is already familiar with it, there are many famous xiangshu in the history of the mainland, they have left wonderful stories in history, today we will talk about one of the famous xiangshu masters in history, Zhang Qiu Taiyi.
Zhang Qiu Taiyi was a very famous xiangshu master during the Sui Dynasty, generally people with real ability will be collected by the imperial court, most of the powerful xiangshu masters are following the emperor's side, Zhang Qiu Taiyi is no exception, so he is a court xiangshu.
Zhang Qiu Taiyi has been very studious since he was a child, so naturally he read a lot of books, and his memory is very good, it can be said that he has never forgotten, so he is called a prodigy. He not only loved books, but was also very good at divination and fortune telling, and his phrenology was very skilled.
Later, because his fame was too great, many people admired him, but he hated fame and fortune, did not want to associate with people in the official field, and did not want to enter the imperial court as an official, but still could not resist the people who came to ask for advice, so he was annoyed by this, so he hid in the mountains and lived a leisurely life of going up the mountain to collect medicine.
Things in the world are difficult to predict, Zhang Qiu Taiyi may not have imagined it, he lived a good life, and suddenly he was forcibly recruited into the dynasty by crown prince Yang Yong and made him an aide to the Eastern Palace, perhaps he already knew that he would have such a day before hiding in the mountains, but he still couldn't hide.
Zhang Qiu Taiyi was very reluctant about this, but the people did not fight with the officials, there was no way but this, it is said that he was very unsightly about Yang Yong's future, and once lamented to the people close to him: I was forced to come here, and I don't know where to go. The implication is that although Yang Yong is the crown prince, he cannot be the emperor, and his future is confused.
Sure enough, later the crown prince Yang Yong was deposed, and Zhang Qiu Taiyi was also implicated and should have been executed, but fortunately, the Sui Emperor Yang Jian cherished his talents, pardoned him, and left him by his side.
We know that in ancient times, as soon as the summer came, the emperor lived to the palace to escape the summer, so Yang Jian was no exception, Renshou four years of summer, this day Yang Jian also had to leave the palace and prepare to go to Renshou Palace to escape the summer. Zhang Qiu Taiyi got the news and rushed to stop it, but Yang Jian did not listen and questioned him why. Zhang Qiu Taiyi was helpless, so he had to tell the truth: Emperor, if you leave the palace this time, you will not be able to come back, you will definitely die outside, I hope you think twice.
Yang Jian was very unhappy when he heard it. I thought, didn't you curse me to die early? He really didn't want to live, but in order to make Zhang Qiu Taiyi die, he decided to put him in prison first, and said to him, When I come back, I am killing you, and prove to you that I can't come back if I go out.
However, when Yang Jian arrived at Renshou Palace, he suddenly fell ill very quickly. At this time, he remembered Zhang Qiu Taiyi's words, and his heart suddenly realized that he was very regretful, but there was no regret medicine in the world, so he summoned Yang Guang, the crown prince at the time, and said to him: "Zhang Qiu Taiyi is a very talented person, and his prediction is very clever. Before I came here, he knew that he had tried his best to discourage me, saying that I would not be able to go back when I came out, and now that I have really fulfilled this, you must release him after you go back and stay by your side to appoint him. ”
Later, after Yang Guang took the throne, he took Zhang Qiu Taiyi with him and trusted him very much. Zhang Qiu Taiyi successively predicted for Yang Guang major events such as the rebellion of Yang Yu and yang Xuangan of the Han Dynasty, all of which were accurate, and Yang Guang also trusted him. In fact, there are many more predictions predicted by Zhang Qiu Taiyi, but many of them are due to the secrets of the royal family, so very few have been handed down.
