It is said that the original tomb of Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty is a mysterious tomb that seriously violates the theory of geomantic omen. Is it true?

It is said that the original tomb of Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty did violate the geomantic omen. Let's see where the original tomb of Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty was built first. The original tomb of Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty was buried in a treasure trove of geomantic omen in Beimang, not only an emperor of Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty, but almost all emperors who built their capital in the Central Plains were buried in this land after their death. Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty was buried in the Eastern Han Mausoleum in Beimang. There are five Eastern Han Mausoleums, and Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty is the most special one in terms of site selection. What kind of special law? The other four are in the sun of the blind mountain, and only this one is on the yellow river beach in the shade of the blind mountain.

So what Feng Shui says is that

there is a mountain behind the house and a river in front of it is a land of great prosperity,

But this mausoleum is just the opposite, with a mountain in front of it and a river behind it, which is extremely discouraged in Feng Shui.

Then why is Liu Xiu's tomb like this? It is recorded in history that Liu Xiu's mausoleum was built at his own request. Before he died, he said that his mausoleum should not cover more than two or three hectares, and it should not be built as long as it can let the rain drain. When Liu Xiu died, he didn't ask too much for his own affairs. He thought that he didn't make much contribution to the people, so he didn't want to be so extravagant and wasteful after his death. All the funerals were just earthenware. As a monarch, it is really rare to have such an idea, which is in sharp contrast with the mausoleum of Qin Shihuang.

Although Liu Xiu asked for it, it was really simple when the cemetery was first built. However, in the later period, due to some institutional requirements of the Han Dynasty for the mausoleum of the Emperor of Heaven, some filial descendants renovated Liu Xiu's mausoleum and made it luxurious, so that many grave robbers were attracted, especially Dong Zhuo, who was notorious for almost ransacking the original mausoleum of Emperor Guangwu and seriously damaging the buildings on it.

So what we can see now is not the original mausoleum of Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty, but what it looks like after renovation. We can only recall the original features of Emperor Guangwu of Han Dynasty according to the inscription in the mausoleum.
