The re-excavation of "Sanxingdui", China's ancient civilization has once again ignited the enthusiasm of netizens, and at the same time, it has been pushed on the hot search for the novel "Notes on tomb robbery" by the three uncles of the Southern Sect, because the excavated cultural relics are very similar to the objects in the novel of "Notes on the Tomb Robbery", such as the "Bronze Sacred Tree", "Hexagonal Copper Bell" and "Bronze Mask" in the novel, etc. Of course, the modern protective excavation of the tomb relics and the story in the novel of the Three Uncles of the Southern Sect have a substantial difference.
But when it comes to cemeteries, there is one thing that must be mentioned, that is, feng shui, which was especially valued in ancient times, especially among the dignitaries and royal families. From ancient times to the present, the feng shui master Li Chunfeng, who has been "enshrined as a god", is the key figure of this article, as long as it is about feng shui, it can be linked to Li Chunfeng, it can be said that it is the originator of feng shui, and the "push back map" that yuan Tiangang, who was also a feng shui master at that time, has been handed down to this day, but their fates are completely different.
Li Chunfeng was a representative figure of feng shui in the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and was highly used by the three emperors Li Yuan, Li Shimin and Li Zhi, which shows how powerful and influential he was. Influenced by his father from a young age, Li Chunfeng began to learn the science of yin and yang and the art of heaven and earth from an early age, and at the age of 9, he went to Henan to worship the then very famous Dao Chief to yuan Dao chang as a teacher, cultivated for 8 years, and later predicted that Li Shimin would become the son of heaven after that, and at that time Li Chunfeng was not as weak as the year of the weak crown. After some recommendation to become Li Shimin's adviser, deeply trusted by Li Shimin, and also participated in the planning of the "anti-Sui Xingtang" uprising, Li Chunfeng can be described as a smooth development.
One of the most representative is that after Li Shimin ascended the throne, he deduced who the next emperor would be, and such a dialogue arose on May 19, the seventh year of Zhenguan. Tang Taizong asked Li Chunfeng, "The world of the Fallen is a little fixed now." Qing Qing is very clear and easy to say, I don't know who lost my country in the first place, and who will ascend to the pole after my dynasty, and who will pass it on? The secretary of state has said it for the calendar. "It means that now that the world has been decided, and you know so much about Taoism, then you can talk about who will lose our country in the future, who will become the next emperor, and what happened in the end?" Li Chunfeng replied, "If you want to know the future, look at the past; those who have gained the sages will rule, and those who have lost the sages will be lost; this way of eternal life is not easy." "To know what happens in the future, we should take history as a mirror, and the wise king can stabilize the world, and the unwise king will bring calamity to the country and the people and lose his own country.
It can be felt that Li Chunfeng is not very willing to say, after all, "the heavenly opportunity cannot be leaked" He still has a number in mind, of course, he also thought that Tang Taizong just asked casually on a whim, and he wanted to fool the past, but he did not expect the emperor to ask again: "The person who asked is not so." With the study of arithmetic, I want to push my dynasty to enjoy a few years, to who will mess with our country, who will destroy our country, who will gain our country, and who will pass it on from generation to generation, and the ear of foreknowledge. "Probably the meaning is that you don't have to argue with me about these things, you have to use what you have learned today to calculate how long I can live, who will mess up my country, destroy my country, and what will happen after the people who seize the throne." I have to say that the domineering spirit of this heavenly son is revealed at this moment.
Li Chunfeng knew that he could not hide from him, and the emperor on the other side could want his own head at any time, the so-called companion was like a companion tiger, not to mention that Tang Taizong had already asked the question twice, and the truth of this matter was also very applicable today. Although Li Chunfeng had no way, he was also a master with real talent and practical learning, and he really refused to answer, saying, "This is a heavenly opportunity, and the minister does not dare to leak it." Tang Taizong was also anxious, thinking that I was the emperor of the dynasty, and you were too faceless, perhaps with anger and doubts about the future, he said: "Words come out of the mouth of the Qing, into the ears of the Fallen, but the Qing and the Words, the ears of others cannot know." The secretary of state tried to say it. It means "Here you know that I know heaven and earth, can anyone know that it is not possible, and you are still afraid that the partition wall has ears?" Tang Taizong said that he might understand it himself, so he took Li Chunfeng to the "Forbidden Palace", and Li Chunfeng served and went to the tall building.
Then Emperor Taizong spoke, "If you don't go up to heaven or down to the ground, Qing Can say what you want." Li Chunfeng also understood, and this disaster could not be escaped, so he said: "Those who chaos the world of my dynasty, that is, on the side of the king, after thirty years, kill the descendants of Tang, and the Lord does not know his own ears." "It means that this person is right next to you, and in thirty years he will take you and kill your descendants." Tang Taizong couldn't sit still, was this person around him? Then he asked, "This person is a man of letters and a warrior, and the Secretary of State has made it clear that he will be killed to eliminate the troubles of the country." "You've got something to say, and I killed him a hundred times at once." This is also one of the reasons why many good ministers were later killed by Tang Taizong.
Li Chunfeng replied, "This is Providence, how can anyone do it?" If this person is above the twentieth century, if he is killed now, heaven will bring calamity to our country, regenerate the youth, and the descendants of the Tang Dynasty will be in danger. "Is Providence something that man can disobey?" If you insist on killing him now, the heavens will send great calamities to our country, and when he is reincarnated, your descendants will really be finished. The implication is that if you don't kill him now and he will grow old in thirty years, maybe that kind of killing will not be so great. To say that Tang Taizong was the emperor, he understood the reasoning at a glance and said: "Providence is established, try to talk about his people." "Since Providence is so, then you can tell him how he is.
Li Chunfeng replied, "He is also a man, he does not leave his body, and his two eyes are long in the air (referring to Wu Zetian's arrogance, according to the fame of heaven), it is really like Si Ye." [Remarks: Wu Zetian made the word Zhào for himself, alluding to two eyes + one empty)] "Although we can now look back at history and see that the meaning of this sentence is directly referring to Wu Zetian, who would have thought at that time that the world would be taken away by a woman? It can be seen that li chunfeng's ability as a master is immeasurable, and then Li Chunfeng continued to calculate for Tang Taizong to the Ming Dynasty, bluntly saying: "If it were not for the eight cattle born (indicating taizu's surname Zhu), the sun and the moon (the name of the country yueming), there would be almost no human beings in the world." Girls have whiskers, boys, and the ground is rifting. This means that if this person had not appeared, the world would have been in chaos, and few human beings would have survived at that time.
Can't we see Li Chunfeng's prophetic ability from now on? Simply a great prophet! But it is precisely because of this that Li Chunfeng's life has taken a turn, and it is inevitable to add officials to the rank of knight, after all, there is real talent and practical learning, not only to grade the wind, write the "Jia Zi Yuan Calendar", but also edit the "Book of Jin" and so on, is a well-deserved master. How do you feel about such a master being placed next to you? I'm sure most people are very happy and think they're on their laps, but if you switch your identities and imagine that you're the emperor, the feeling is bound to change dramatically.
Li Chunfeng died at the age of sixty-eight, the historical record is "passing away", "passing away" means sudden death, and it is precisely because of this that the outside world has been talked about, of course, that is now, in ancient times, who dared to spread rumors, it may be to enter the gate to "eat" the board, the heavy is the major sin of losing the head. Then use modern thinking to speculate, at that time, Li Chunfeng's "passing away" reason, the highest speculation is because he himself is superb in feng shui And Taoism, so that Emperor Taizong is afraid, so when he was more than sixty years old, he thought that its threat was getting bigger and bigger, and the future might pose a great threat to his own Jiangshan, after all, he was facing a master who was uncertain prophet and knowledgeable in the past, so he gave Li Chunfeng death and announced his "death".
If this is the real reason, then it should also be the phrase "I was killed by myself" and buried myself. After all, from the perspective of the emperor in a high position, he must be afraid of people who are more powerful than himself, and the jiangshan he has worked hard to lay down is to pass it on for generations to come, and if this high person can always be used for himself, of course, it is good, in case the other party has evil intentions, it is estimated that the jiangshan will change owners at any time.
Yuan Tiangang, another feng shui master in the same period, was much more low-key, although he was a hermit, his name was well known in the world, which showed his ability. But to say that the difference between these two masters, the biggest is that Yuan Tiangang's cemetery has not dared to move so far, and Li Chunfeng's tomb has signs of theft in the early years, as for why, we will talk about this topic in the next issue.
