The geomantic omen of Jiandu
Let's talk about feng shui in Nanjing later. Nanjing, also known as Jinling, this question, and? Jinling? This name is directly related. Originally, the geographical feng shui in Nanjing was the best place in the south of the Yangtze River, and it could really be set as the capital of a national political center. Unfortunately, after Qin Shihuang unified the six countries in the Central Plains, a geomantic master reported to Qin Shihuang that Nanjing had a powerful dragon god with the country as its capital, and put forward a plan to bury some gold in the second mountain (Zushan) from Long Mai, in order to destroy the geomantic omen in Nanjing and name it Jinling. ?
Whether the dragon gods in Nanjing can be destroyed after detailed gold burial is not said in geomantic omen, but strategically, it did play a role in destroying geomantic omen in Nanjing. I heard that there is a lot of gold buried in its mountains. At that time, many people nearby were thinking about burying gold in the mountains, which triggered a wave of digging mountains and digging gold. Soon, a beautiful and spectacular mountain was dug beyond recognition, and the dragon god was really destroyed.
So some people in Jinling say that there is a dragon shape without a dragon soul. Therefore, the dynasty with its capital here will not last long. When Liu Bowen died in the Ming Dynasty, he saw that Jinling was not a good place to build the capital, and suggested that Zhu Yuanzhang move the capital. But when Zhu Yuanzhang was old, he left it to future generations to do. In geomantic omen, each mountain in Houshan corresponds to the rise and fall of one generation, while the second mountain in Long Mai corresponds to the second generation. Let's compare it. From the Eastern Jin Dynasty to the Southern and Northern Dynasties, to the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, to the early Ming Dynasty, to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, and then to the Republic of China, Nanjing was not established as the political center. This is the reason why the founding of Nanjing cannot last long.
