"Do you believe prophecies? It feels both magical and frightening. ”
In the Ming Dynasty, Liu Bowen once wrote a prophetic poem that was accurate enough to make people feel afraid, it was "The Song of Burning Cakes", the later Wei Zhongxian rebellion, the suicide of Ming Sizong Zhu by inspecting Jingshan, and the Qing Dynasty's Eight Flags system were all predicted by Liu Bowen.
What people don't necessarily know, however, is that there is an even more miraculous prophetic poem in history, called the Plum Blossom Poem, which includes ten poems representing ten dynasties, and has now been fulfilled to the seventh.
So, what kind of poems is "Plum Blossom Poem"? Let's take a look.
Speaking of "Plum Blossom Poem", we have to mention its author, his name is Shao Yong, is a kind of poet of the Northern Song Dynasty, and he is not only a poet, but also proficient in mathematics, it is said that Shao Yong is a very low-key person, does not like to deal with people, most of his life has lived in the mountains and forests, people who can have these backgrounds, how to look like a mortal.
However, there is one thing to say, "Plum Blossom Poem" is not a big vernacular ancient poem, on the contrary, many words Shao Yong use it very cryptically, as to whether it is forcibly implicated by posterity, this is debatable.
Among them, the fourth poem of "Plum Blossom Poem" corresponds to the Ming Dynasty: after all, the hero is clothed, Zhu Men is not the old emperor, and it is common to come to swallows, and it is not the case to bloom until Li Huachun.
Among them, "Zhu" represents the surnames of the Emperors of the Ming Dynasty, "Yan" represents Zhu Di, the King of Yan, and "Li" represents Li Zicheng, combined with various historical events, which was really predicted by Shao Yong, even if it is forcibly implicated, the coincidence of this is not inevitably a bit excessive.
Then there is the fifth song corresponding to the Qing Dynasty: Hu'er rode to Chang'an, opened up the central plains of the sea, the flood began to rise, and Qingguang should look to Hanzhong.
Among them, the sentence of flooding and flooding has been said by posterity to indicate that Hong Xiuquan and Li Yuanhong, who are changing the pattern of the Qing Dynasty, if one or two things are said to be coincidences, it is excusable, but so many things have been predicted by Shao Yong, which cannot be said to be still a coincidence.
What is even more difficult to think about is that the first seven poems of "Plum Blossom Poems" have almost all been fulfilled, and the Southern Song Dynasty, the Northern Song Dynasty, the Yuan Dynasty, and even the Republic of China have all been predicted by it.
Nowadays, "Plum Blossom Poem" is talked about what the last three poems represent, and if it can continue to be fulfilled, then "Plum Blossom Poem" is a real "prophetic poem".
To say that the most frightening one, when the seventh song of the number of sentences "east to the mob to steal from the west", the east refers to the "East", that is, Japan, the west refers to the Western powers, associated with the invasion of the great powers in the late Qing Dynasty, as well as the War of Resistance Against Japan, it can be said that the prophecy in the "Plum Blossom Poem" was once again predicted by it.
The other verses of "Plum Blossom Poems" are relatively obscure, and it may also be because people have not experienced it yet, and they can be successfully predicted by Shao Yong so much, and I have to say that he is really a magical figure.
However, there is still a lot of controversy about the prophecy of the "Plum Blossom Poem", and one of the reasons is that Shao Yong did not explicitly say that the "Plum Blossom Poem" would foreshadow the future, if it is to forcibly implicate some things that have already happened, will such a prophecy have great significance? Not big.
After all, there are too many coincidences in the world, for the view and conclusion of things, we need to have a rational thinking, can not let people lead the nose, many times to maintain a point of view that is not necessarily correct, is better than blindly following a point of view, because maintaining independent thinking ability, is only good and no harm to things.
Of course, we can't deny the charm of "Plum Blossom Poem" in this regard, and history often needs this sense of mystery, after all, something with a sense of mystery is definitely the most attractive.
