Speaking of Liu Bowen, I think everyone will not be too unfamiliar, in the folk there is a very famous saying called "three points of the world Zhuge Liang, a unified Jiangshan Liu Bowen", there is more "former dynasty military division Zhuge Liang, later dynasty military division Liu Bowen" such a statement, can be compared with the "wisdom" synonym Zhuge Liang, enough to see Liu Bowen's strength, the two also circulated an interesting story in the future generations.
According to legend, after Liu Bowen helped Zhu Yuanzhang lay the foundation of the world, the folk spread the idea that Liu Bowen was the "second in the world" sergeant. Who was the First Army Division? Naturally, Zhuge Liang, who is not yet out of the woods, can divide the world.
Liu Bowen was not convinced, I helped the old Zhu family unify the world, you only helped the old Liu family to divide the world, why are you the first? Therefore, Liu Bowen thought more and more angrily, and ordered his men to go to Zhuge Liang's mausoleum to prepare for excavation.
Unexpectedly, when I dug three feet deep, I dug out a tombstone that read, "Student Berwyn, I know that there will be you in the future, and you know who will be in the future?" ”
Liu Bowen was immediately shocked when he saw this tombstone, and zhuge Liang, who had been clever and calculating, had expected that in thousands of years, a man named Liu Bowen would come to excavate his tomb, and also reminded Liu Bowen that if you stole your tomb today, someone would steal your tomb in the future, and the karma cycle would not be happy, which is exactly what it means. Liu Bowen immediately prayed three times and built a stele in front of Zhuge Liang's tomb that read: "The First Soldier in the World", and stopped at this point.
Although this story may seem a bit divine and not real, we need to know that such a story is not completely out of the ordinary, but has a certain historical background in it.
We know that Liu Bowen is indeed an all-round genius like Zhuge Liang, he is proficient in astronomy, martial arts, mathematics, feng shui, Bu Gua is also known for poetry, and together with Song Lian and Gao Qi, he is called "the three masters of poetry in the early Ming Dynasty". Of course, in history, Liu Bowen's most important identity is the founding hero of the Ming Dynasty, and Zhu Yuanzhang has repeatedly called him "my son's room".
In the twentieth year of Zhizheng (1360), Liu Bowen was invited out of the mountain by Zhu Yuanzhang and appointed him as the chief strategist. Liu Bowen devised a two-front combat policy for Zhu Yuanzhang according to the local form, and eventually assisted Zhu Yuanzhang in defeating Zhang Shicheng, Chen Youyu and other forces. Including the plan to destroy the Yuan after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, Liu Bowen was planning the overall situation.
Liu Bowen's full talent Zhu Yuanzhang can be regarded as having seen it, so he is also afraid that Liu Bowen's sitting on the big will threaten his own Daming Jiangshan in the future. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang did not "reward" Liu Bowen after he ascended the throne, and Liu Bowen, who made great contributions, was actually squeezed out of the ranks of the "Founding Six Dukes", and only symbolically sealed a "sincere bo" and Yushi Zhongcheng.
Despite this, Zhu Yuanzhang was still not very reassured about Liu Bowen and often arranged some strange work for him. One day Zhu Yuanzhang said that he had dreamed of "the birth of a true dragon", and this real dragon threatened Zhu Yuanzhang to hand over the Ming Dynasty's Jiangshan, and Zhu Yuanzhang was frightened and woke up from the dream. Although this was only a dream, he could not tolerate the possibility of threatening the Ming Dynasty.
So Zhu Yuanzhang came to Liu Bowen, he knew that Liu Bowen knew a lot of things, especially in the area of yin and yang and feng shui, he was the first person in the world. So Zhu Yuanzhang told Liu Bowen about his dream and ordered him to kill the dragon vein in the world! Aren't you going to take the country? Then cut off your dragon vein first!
This seems to be a joke now, this Zhu Yuanzhang is a person who is the emperor, how can he still be angry with a dream? It's like a joke on the Internet: One day my wife suddenly woke me up from sleep early in the morning, and I asked her what was wrong? The wife said honestly who is the girl you dated in my dreams? Isn't that unreasonable?
But the ancients believed in dreams, especially the ancient royal family was very superstitious about the "dragon vein", and they even believed that the rise and fall of a country had a huge relationship with the dragon vein.
Because the dragon vein is the treasure land of feng shui, where the essence of heaven and earth is gathered, once the dragon vein is occupied, it is likely to fly yellow and soar, so these places are also called the land of dragon rejuvenation, and the destruction of the dragon vein is against the will of the heavens, and it is to be punished by heaven. Liu
Berwyn even wondered if Zhu Yuanzhang had made such an excuse to get rid of himself. But Liu Bowen had no choice but to harden his scalp.
According to feng shui kan public opinion, he found six dragon veins. They are Kunlun Mountain Dragon Vein, West Qingshan Dragon Vein, Emei Mountain Dragon Vein, Taihang Mountain Dragon Vein, Qinling Dragon Vein, and Changbai Mountain Dragon Vein. Liu Bowen successfully removed 99 of them, and even the ancient tombs buried in them were dug up by him. Only after seeing Changbai Mountain, he turned his head and left, why is this?
When Liu Bowen and his party came to Changbai Mountain, there was blizzard in the sky, which may have been a long-term digging "dragon vein" in the wild, and when the weather suddenly turned cold in Changbai Mountain, including Liu Bowen, all of the people in the group were infected with the disease, so Liu Bowen believed that cutting off the dragon vein and breaking Yangshou, and when he arrived at Changbai Mountain, heavy snow suddenly fell, which was an ominous omen, so Liu Bowen turned around and did not dare to dig again.
Coincidentally, the only dragon vein that was born later became the land of longxing in the Manchu Qing. Before Emperor Taiji destroyed Li Zicheng and established the Qing Dynasty, many ancestors of the Ai Xinjue Luo clan were buried here, and later Changbai Mountain was forbidden by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and there were heavy guards all year round because they were afraid that someone would cut off their "dragon vein".
