When he was 14 years old, he threw away his jade ring and found a wonderful Feng Shui land for the Qing Dynasty.
Fulin, the Shunzhi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, was the first emperor after the Manchus entered the customs. His life was extremely legendary. According to historical records, Emperor Shunzhi was extremely talented and proficient in the Feng Shui of the Book of Changes. When he was 14 years old, he threw away his jade ring finger and found a wonderful Feng Shui treasure land for the Qing Dynasty. 1. Emperor Shunzhi looked for Feng Shui treasures
China has paid attention to Feng Shui since ancient times. Kings of all dynasties would build imperial mausoleums to ensure the prosperity of the country. The feng shui of the mausoleum is even more particular. The ancient book "Xiaoting Miscellaneous Records" records the story of Emperor Shunzhi of the Qing Dynasty personally selecting a mausoleum. The article praised him for selecting a treasured Feng Shui site that even a Feng Shui master who was good at finding the site might not be able to find.
Emperor Shunzhi Aixinjueluo Fulin (1638-1661) was the ninth son of Emperor Taizong Huang Taiji of the Qing Dynasty, the third emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and the first emperor of the Qing Dynasty to enter the customs. Emperor Shunzhi ascended the throne at the age of 6 and was assisted by his uncle, the Regent and Prince Dorgon of Shuorui. In the first year of Shunzhi (1644 AD), the Qing army entered the Pass and took control of the Central Plains. In the same year, Emperor Shunzhi moved the capital to Beijing. In the seventh year of Shunzhi (1650), Dorgon went out to hunt and died in the Luanhe River. Fulin took charge ahead of schedule.
One day in the eighth year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1651 AD), the 14-year-old Shunzhi Emperor Feng Xiaozhuangwen, the Queen Mother, led the queen, concubines, princes, ministers, and Feng Shui masters to Zunhua. Set off.
Emperor Shunzhi came prepared this time. He heard that Fengshui in the Fengtailing area of Malanyu in Zunhua was excellent, so he came here to inspect it. The Fengshui of Fengtailing was recorded in "Xi Wei Lu" written by Zha Jizuo of the Ming Dynasty. In the thirteenth year of Chongzhen's reign, Emperor Chongzhen sent Liu Kongzhao and Zhang Zhenren to Zunhua to search for a geomantic treasure land. After selecting it, Liu Kongzhao said that although the fengshui was very good, there was no good time to start construction. After calculation, the auspicious time to start construction was the Jiashen year, which was the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, and this year happened to be the year of the demise of the Ming Dynasty.
Shunzhi and his party climbed up to Fengtailing and looked into the distance. They saw that the plains in the south were like a carpet; the mountains in the north were like surging mountains, and the trees were lush and green. In the east and west directions, there is a pool of green water in each direction, forming a natural golden basin with perfect shape.
Emperor Shunzhi fell in love with this geomantic treasure land. He said to his surrounding ministers: "This mountain has a prosperous royal aura and can be my mausoleum in the future." He got off his horse and stood in a sunny place. God prays devoutly. 2. Emperor Shunzhi threw a jade puller to designate the dragon's lair
The accompanying ministers Kanyu and Qintianjian officials measured the terrain according to the Bagua directions and mysterious mechanisms such as Yin, Yang and Five Elements. They saw that the north of Changrui Mountain is the "Houlong", the eagle flying over the mountain to the east is the Qinglong; the Huanghua Mountain to the west is the white tiger; the Jinxing Mountain to the south is Zhaoshan; and the Yingbi Mountain in the distance is Ganshan; Malan The river and the West River flow around it, forming a landscape pattern of "mountains surrounded by water, carrying the yin and embracing the yang". It is really a rare geomantic treasure.
After surveying the terrain, Minister Kanyu and Qin Tianjian also discovered that the dragon veins extend from Taihang, and their momentum is like a huge wave. Looking at the surrounding mountains, they look like the Wukui station, and the mountain peaks are like lotus flowers set off by thousands of leaves. There is no better blessed place than this!
So Emperor Shunzhi took off the jade finger on his hand, threw it to the south, and said to the courtiers: "The place where the finger fell will be the acupuncture point of the mausoleum in the future." Everyone was at the place where the finger fell, ** * A golden hairpin, covered with earth, and covered with tent mats, so that they would no longer see the light of the sun, moon, and stars.
Later, on this geomantic treasure land, the Qing Dynasty built the tombs of five Qing emperors, which are the famous Qingdong Tombs. The Eastern Tombs of the Qing Dynasty cover an area of 2,500 kilometers. It is the largest royal mausoleum among the three major cemeteries of the Qing Dynasty, including the Xiaoling Mausoleum of Emperor Shunzhi, the Jingling Mausoleum of Emperor Kangxi, the Yuling Mausoleum of Gaozong Qianlong, the Dingling Mausoleum of Emperor Wenzong Xianfeng, the Huiling Mausoleum of Mu Zong Tongzhi, and the Empress Dowager Ci'an (Empress Dowager of the East). There are four mausoleums for empresses including the Empress Dowager Cixi (the Empress Dowager of the West), and five concubine gardens. There are also mausoleums for princes, crown princes, princesses, etc. around the mausoleum area, and more than 160 people including emperors, empresses, concubines, kings, and princesses are buried together. . 3. The Tomb of the Eastern Qing Dynasty is famous
Many descendants of the Manchu people now believe that the Eastern Tomb of the Qing Dynasty is the first of the Chinese Dragon Veins. Because the dragon is a mythical beast that moves clouds and spreads rain, it rains exactly 72 times every year in Dongling Tomb of the Qing Dynasty.
History has proven that the Feng Shui treasure land chosen by Emperor Shunzhi indeed brought good luck to the Qing Dynasty. The prosperous Qing Dynasty created by the three emperors Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong has been praised throughout the ages.
In 1976, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake occurred in Tangshan. When the houses in Tangshan collapsed and were almost razed to the ground, the Qingdong Tombs, also located at the epicenter, did not suffer any damage. The scientific community is still unable to explain this.
According to historical records, Emperor Shunzhi not only studied the Feng Shui of the Book of Changes, but also had a heart for Buddhism. There are two Zen masters, Mu Chenmin and Yu Linxiu, who are enshrined in the palace. Their seals have titles such as "Chenyin Taoist", "Lazy Old Man" and "Crazy Taoist". He once said to Mu Chenmin: "I hope that the old monk will not regard me as the emperor, but treat me as a disciple of the sect."
Emperor Shunzhi was devoted to Buddhism and preached scriptures and Buddhism as a common thing. It is also said in "The Behavior of Empress Duanjing" written by the Emperor Shunzhi: "I never believed in Buddhism, but I used Neidian Zen instructions to explain the meaning of the Heart Sutra. Therefore, I respected the Three Jewels and concentrated on Zen study."
